BEFORE THE TRIBUNAL
The Document on Which Spain
Rests Her Case.
A LETTER TO JUDGE DAY
insisted That Spain's Sovereignty Over
b Philippines Had Been Main
tanned in Spite OF Blockade
and Siege.

Paris. Nov. 12.-Spain has held that
h efectually reserved her Philip
pine sovereignty from discussion OF
disturbance by the United States in a
note from Duke Almodovar del Rio. the
Spanish minister Of foreign affairs, to
Judge Day. the then United States Sec
rotary OF state. dated Madrid, Aug. 7.
1t is by this message that Spain pre-
sumably accepted the terms of peace
which. at SPANS request, had been
set forth by President Mckinley
through Secretary Day under late of
July 80. And 1t is by this message of
Duke Almodovar del Rio and by the re-
spouse OF Secretary Day IN Spain
seeks to prove to the United States
peace commission and to the tribunal
of nations that Spain's sovereignty
over the Philippine islands was re-
served from any discussion here and
without protest from the United
In the letter in question Duke Almo-
dovar del Rio says Spain did not de-
clare var n only engaged in IL TO
defend her rights. He acknowledges
the necessity of SPANS quilting the
Island OF Cuba n ays she will do so.
Continuing, he says: The United
States require as an indemnity for or
equivalent to the sacrifices they have
borne during this short war the ces-
rion of Porto Rico and other Stands now
under the sovereignty of Spain in the
West Indies. and also the cession of
islands in the Ladrones to be selected
by h federal government.
This demand strips us Of the very
last memory of the glorious past and
expels us at once from the prosperous
island of Porto Rico and from the
western hemisphere, which became peo-
pied and civilized through the proud
deeds of our ancestors. 1t might per-
haps have been possible to compensate
by some other cession for the injuries
sustained by the United States. How
ever. the i~nfiexibility of the demand
obliges us to cede. and we shall cede,
the island of Porto Rico n other
islands belonging to the crown of Spain
I'm the West Indies. together with other
islands of the archipelago OF the La
drones. to be selected by the American
government.
THE terms relating to the Philippines
seem, to our understanding, quite in
definite. On the other hand. the ground
which the United States believe them
selves entitled to occupy. the harbor

1t has long been the favorite excur-
sion OF Swiss travellers who assembled

most intrepid mountain climbers. The
new road. however. brings 1t within
the reach of all.
Ryffelslp there overlooks the en-
tire Findelen valley and the traveller
might be well satisfied TO return by
n way he came. However. the en-
gineer has been even more c~onsiderate.
BY reversing the direction OF his train
he carries you right down into the
valley. bringing you back by a beauti-
uf1 circuitous route TO Zermatt.
The trains will be driven by electric
fly generated from the torrent that
flows from the Findelen glacier. a huge
pipe down n mountain side carrying
the water at a high pressure to the
dynamos beneath the bridge. The dy-
namos are capable OF developing 100
horse power n the current will be
conveyed by overhead wires to the
rotor attached to the carriages. The
bridge across the Findelen is unique.

motors will drive onto a central cog
ged rail. between the two ordinary

for the train to be driven by simple
a~dhesion.-St. Louis POST Dispatch.

test Is Not Ended.

h votes cast for the Office. and, what

legislature are pledged to vote against
Senator Quay.
After styling Senator Quay's mani
festo as the exultant yell of a polit-
fcal boss" Mr.. Wanamaker notihes
the nat that the contest against
his domination Is not ended, n reit-
crates his purpose OF carrying on the
contest until Quay's rule and his meth
d are exterminated from the politics
Of the state.
Mr.. Wanamaker closes his address
with an offer of $50. 900 for information
that will secure the conviction of any

MANTANZAS BQMBARDEO.
ltis Believed Many Spaniards Were
Killed in the Battle.
BARRICADES TOPPLED OVER.
The Dupont and Hornet Finished tho
Work Left Undone by the Big Fleet
Some Days Ago.

Key West--(Special. )-The torpedo
boat Dupont came in on the night OF
7th and reported sharp engagement
off Mantanzas, last night and this
morning. The Dupont and the auxil-
iary cruiser Hornet were cruising near
the shore last night, and when about
600 yards from land, were fred upon by
body of cavalry, about 200 strong,
which was spread along the shore on
the lookout for filibusters. According
to the Duponts story both United
States vessels returned the fire, scat
tering the Spanish troops, and then
bombarded the MantanZas Notifications.
These were in the nature of the sand
block houses, nine in number. The
bonn mbardment lasted from 4 to $3.50
o'clock. The Dupont says their shells
toppled over the barricades in course OF
erection, and it is sure that many OF the
Spanish soldiers were killed as they af-
terwards saw wagons taking away dead
or wounded. The survivors fled to the
hills. This morning the Matanzas for
titications opened ire ut the Dupont
md Hornet. They were line shots, but
the boats had got out of the range. The
Dupont aud Hornet then resumed the
bombardment and continued until $50
o'clock. The Dupont men think they
have effectually silenced what the big
fleet left OF the fortltications there.
