The amount to be coined each month is less than was proposed by the silver men, but authorizing the coinage of any amount was a recognition of the principle advocated by the silver men.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Movements of the War Depart.

rom our Regular Correspondent. ]

From Our Regular Cprr-Sp NntcnLi
 WASHINGTON, June 13, 1898.
 Ii is not surprising that Admiral Sampson should have shown some inn patience in his dispatches to Washing ton because of inc delay in sending him the troops promised. He has had with m the last week ample cause for impa tience, aye, and for indignation, too. He destroyed the outer forts at Santiago and had everything ready for troops to land, but there were no troops; he cap tured Guantanamo bay, and still holds it, for the same purpose, but the troops which ought to have been there to land were on transports anchored at Tampa, held up by orders from Washington, on account of the cock and bull story about a fleet of Spanish warships being at Ha- vana ready to steam out and capture the troops as soon as they started, until Sampson could detach number of his most formidable ships and send them to convoy the transports to Santiago. Mean while Sampson's marines hold all the Cuban ground they have captured AL though nothing official can be obtained, there is reason to believe that troops are now on their way to Cuba, under con- voy. The frequency with which holdup orders have been sent from Washington when important movements Were about to be started, on no better foundation than wild and improbable rumors, pre- sumably of Spanish origin, makes it look as though somebody who has intlu- ence enough to control the issuing of orders has the misfortune to have streak of yellow down his backbone. It cannot be stated to an absolute certainty who this individual is, but, unless the delays have been purposely made to prolong the war, there is little doubt that he exists. It is only where those in command are out of reach of holdup orders that notable successes have been obtained.
 Orders have been sent to Generals Coppinger and Lee, who are to com mand the Porto Rican army, to get their men ready 10 start. but there is no tell ing how many holdup orders they will have to contend with hefUre they get of,

A dispatch from Washington says that the Bureau of Internal Revenue is now busily engaged in preparations for the enforcement of the war revenue bill, which has become a law. Nearly the entire work involved will fall upon the internal revenue service, the exceptions being the bond issue and the coinage of the silver in the treasury. Following is pretty complete synopsis of the bill, ard shows how Uncle Sam proposes to raise money to meet war expenses:

from what Senator Proctor ssid on that

We are 10 the midst OF war, but there
are Thugs worse thsn war. There are
wrongs which cannot be rishted 10 any
way yet devised except by force. The
American people decided that the long
continued tyranny OF Spain 10 Cabs NUT
stop, aud the only way to make this sure
was that her flag must leave that island.
| snd this war is the result OF that decision.
There we're many 10 high places. many
men Of intelligence and wealth and busi
ness and political stsodiug who asked.
almost in the words OF Gain, Am l my
brothers keeper And the people answer
ed, not hastily, but after hearing aud con
sidering the facts with patience and long
Suffering, Yes, you are, and more to the
extent that we will not longer stand idly
by and see our brother man robbed and
stabbed and murdered il ii Is 10 our pow
er to prevent it.
Dewey's guns in Manila opened up
great questions before our nation. Terri
