Yet the opening burSt=5f animation and
strength, the subsequent reaction and
the final conflicting tendency OF iEdiv!d-
ual stocks all had their rational mo-
tives. At first view there was every
reason TO expect a strong and Wen sus-
tanned market throughout the day on
account OF the glorious achievements OF
the United States navy and the !mmi-
hence OF capitulation by the Spanish
forces In Santiago. There was q rush TO
buy at the opening. and bears, who had
the temerity TO remain short OF stocks
over the triple holiday scrambled TO
cover. London also bought eagerly. Con-
seuuently, stocks which had recently
Gas and Sugar and the Internationnis
showed the sharpess advances, But the
fact was equally obvious that quite a
number Of stocks which have been
pushed up In face OF the recent lethargy,
were suffering from proht-taklng. At
ter the urgent demand from the shorts
had been satisfied, the proat-taklnS
sales dominated largely reducing all
the earlier advances, and in many cases
carrying prices web below last Fridays
close. The chief sufferers were Brook
lyn Transit, Rock Island and Bur,ing-
ton. Sugar also developed marked weak
ness before the close. 1t Is measure
Of the great confidence which has been
felt In Admiral Sampson and his fleet
that the actual demolition Of the Span
ish squadron should have been met by
selling Of stocks as an event that had
been thoroughly discounted. 1t is quite
possible that the later weakness repre-
scented In some degree q dampening OF
enthusiasm caused by reports that
the projected bombardment and reduc-
ton OF Santiago were to be postponed.
There was significance in the fact that
the opening of the new fiscal year and
the usual large release OF funds were
not reflected in any marked pressure for
speculation or investment In the stock
market.
This is indicative Of the continued
doubt as TO the exact effect on the
money market which will result from
the taking up Of the government loan on
July IA.
Bonds reflected a more steady demand
than I'D stocks, as prices were more
generally firm. Total sales, $2,5O0,OOO
Closing quotations OF government
bonds were unchanged from Friday.

Mr.. iowa cannot be emphatic enough In
his denial Of the oft-published report
that General Gomez has said that he
did not desire the aid Of the United
States; that the Cubaus were able to
drive out the Spanish army, and would
look on American invasion as offensive.
Mr.. Jova says: General Gomez has
said to me over and over again that 1t
would be a shame TO send American
boys to die OF fever In Cuba, while Gu
bans, who are immune from disease.
who are anxious to fight, and who know
the country, are without guns, clothes
and food. Let the Cubans do as much
OF the fighting as possible. and let the
Americans help at first by eQuipplug
our army"
The most elaborate relief work now
being conducted by the Red Cross So
ciety is IN Key West, where 1900 Gu
bans are being fed. Six hundred persons
receive their daily rations from a public
kitchen, maintained Jointly by the Red
Cross. the Cuban cIgarmakers and other
Cubans. The chief part of the expense
OF this kitchen is borne by the local Gu
bans the Red Cross giving food sup
plies A list is kept Of persons receiv-
ing food. Each applicant receives a
draws his rations, his card IL punched
for that day. To-day the kitchen served
boiled fish, boiled rice, boiled beans
and thick soup. The bill OF fare is
changed every day. When the repre-
sentative OF the Associated Press called
to-day, most Of the applicants were
children, and they bear no resemblance
to the pictures OF reconcentrados that
used to be published by the newspapers.
Any one desiring a, meal may go to the
kitchen and get It, but to draw ration9
regularly the applicant must be enroll
ed The Red Cross furnishes food sup
piles once week to families who do
moi draw relief from the kitchen.
There is Joy in the feet over the news
that the Red Cross society is to send
Maine ice 10 the Santiago squadron and
to the Havana blockade. The lack of ice
has caused much suffering among the
vessels, and many officers have been In
vaided home. The ice factory at Key
West has capacity OF twenty tons a
day, and could easily sell seventy-hye
tons. The hospitals receive the prefer
ence in the sale Of ice: then the regular
patrons Of the factory; after that the
steamers, and then the common run OF
people, who come with baskets and
pieces OF string and bags to carry the
precious stun. The crowd around the
ice factory in the morning might be ta-
ken at first for gathering with a relief
station.

With these ne waited fourteen DAYS
Mt the coast for the expedition. Ft-
nnlly, giving up hope Of Its landing, he
ordered the men to dispense. The sac
rlflce necessltated by this mobilization
was very great. For instance, General
Montegrudo. was obliged to Kill $50
horses for food.
The little bands were able to forage
about the amp, 70 fish in the river, to
pick fruit and to dig sweet potatoes,
but a large army cannot live on the
country. The bands are back where
they were, but with fewer horses and
somewhat discouraged. The killing OF
horses is not resorted to, except when
absolutely necessary to prevent starva-
ton. Forage for horses Is abundant in
Cuba.
Juan z. iowa, ex-conspl at sagua ia
Grande, who was intriIsted by the Unit
ed States government with the delivery
Of the Gussie supplies 70 General Gomez
Is very much concerned over the gem
erals plight. When tie Suwanee and
GussIe failed TO land on the north coast
the Gussle returned to Tampa, and the
Suwanee went around to the south
coast, intending to make a landing on
the other side OF Santa Clara province,
but Rear Admiral Sampson called the
Slwanee in at Santiago de Cuba, and
asked that the supplies be delivered to
his Cuban allies, under General Cabro-
co. This was done. Mr.. iowa has an
idea that the United States government
will feel bound to deliver to General Co
mez the supplies that were not landed
by the Gussie, and which were taken
back to Tampa, II the government does
a n
a warshlp on which the Cubans will be
permitted to send food to General Co
meg.

Cows Leg Amputated.

An extraordinary surgical opera
ton was performed Sunday by Veter-
mary Surgeon A. H. Hartwig on a
blooded HOlstein COW owned by Ed
ward Pugh, OF Ixonia. The COW broke
her leg few days previously in such
a manner that it could not be set, and
when consulted DR.. Hartwig advised
either amputation Of the member or
killing Of the cow The former was
decided on and the animal brought to
the doctors infirmary here. The leg
was successfully amputated al the
knee and the COW is now getting along
nicely, being able to stand a portion
OF the time on three legs and eating
heartily. In due course Of time it is
intended to fit the disabled member
with wooden leg and socket, and it
is thought the animal will then be
able to walk in her accustomed way
Such cases are rare, indeed, no paral-
lei being known in this country, but
in Europe, the doctor says, there are
examples Of it. Great interest has
been aroused by the operation and
many people call daily to see the COW.
1t is expected that the wound will
heal in about three weeks. when the
wooden leg will be attached.

The Apotheosis of Savage Warfare
Col. Cody's Splendid Reproduction of
the Custer Massacre.

Ia considering for illustration in his
"Wild West the most striking events
in frontier history and warfare, Col.
| Cody has now selected Clusters last
| battle on the Little Big Horn as the
| subject of the heroic apotheOsis of
| the savage, annihilating warfare, for
| which he alone can furnish the living
material, even including some Of the
| Indian braves who were actual parti-
cipants in the dreadful event SO vivid
ly and accurately portrayed, as well
as scouts, guides and soldiers, who
carry many honorable scars in testi-
mony of their familiarity with similar
sanguinary scenes. Hundreds of men
and horses represent Custer, his de-
voted band and their fierce Sioux
| destrOyers-man for man and horse
| for hOrse-With a realism in personal
ity, arms, equipment and evolution,
the absolute facsimile Of incarnate
realism. Briefly outlined, the opening
scene of this incompatible and inimit-
able spectacle and tableau-sO far be-
yond all others means and limitations
reveal an Indian village, the inhabi-
tants of which neglect their precau-
tiOnary measures against surprise in
wild celebration of a recent victory.
While they are thus occupied a scout
creeps forward unObserved, and then
retires to signal to the invading force.
Next Custer and his cavalry burst upon
the view, in all the electrifying, free
reioned impulse of charging valOr. An
easy victory seems assured, when sud
denly Custer and his battalion OF 26O
men are surrounded and overwhelmed
bv an unlOOked-for horde of Sioux
warriors. Then comes the awful shock
of undisciplined valor against disci-
plined despair; the cOmmingled thun-
der of tramping hoofs, the incessant
flash and roar of guns, the shouts and
frenzied screams Of desperate conflict,
and finally the last stand and heroic
death of the idolized Murat Of the
American army. The plain is strewn
with fallen men and horses, while
riderless steeds gallop wildly through
clouds of smoke and scenes OF carnage.
Finally the victorious Sioux leave the
field and Buffalo Bill, guiding rein
! fOrcements, appears upon the now
silent scene Of defeat and wholesale
massacre; his attitude and gesture elo-
quently and sadly expressing, ''Too
late This most wonderful battle
picture will be seen here on Monday,
| August l, and is lesson Of the terrors
OF war and the history OF heroism
none should miss.
