AMOS CUMMINGS, who has recently
visited Cuba, writes as follows about
the Spanish soldiers and starving Gu
bans:
No signs OF sympathy with the starry
ing reconcentrados we're shown by the
Spanish soldiers. The starving people
Stunned them as they would have shun-
ned hyenas. The soldiers treated them
with the utmost indifference so long as
they remained within their pens. If
any ventured outside they were either
shot or bayoneted, according 10 orders.
The bayonets were short and rcsem-
bled the blade Of a bowie knife. The
officers were far more heartless toward
the reconcentrados. They sneered at
them and took apparent delight in ag-
gravating their misery"

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 2.-An i'm
portant conference regarding the Gu
ban operations occupied considerable
part OF the afternoon at the White
House. The President, Secretaries Al
ger and Long and Gen. Miles talked
over the propriety Of postponing the
expedition from Port Tampa. The
Secretary of the Navy and the General
of the Army were against the expedi-
tion at this time. The Secretary OF
the Navy urged that no troops ought
TO be sent TO Cuba until after IL Is
known what had become OF the Span
ish fleet which started westward from
Cape Verde islands. Secretary Alger
was strongly of the opinion that the
expedition ought to start Wednesday,
as had been planned. He urged that
the blow ought TO be struck as quickly
as possible after the Manila defeat. He
argued that the effect would be much
greater on the island than II It was de-
layed until the shock OF defeat had
passed away. In short, the Secretary
was very plain in declaring his opinion
that the thing to do was to go In and
make speedy finish OF the Cuban ait
uation. But he was in the minority.
Gen. Miles supported the position OF
Secretary Long. He thought the time
was not opportune TO send American
troops to Cuba.

THE wheat market this week has
been an excited one and prices have
shown further advance, with the re-
suit OF reaching the highest level re-
ported for seven years past. On Tues
day, May delivery at New York touch

tinuance Of the heavy buying here and
abroad noted last week, and TO the heavy
decreases In the visible supplies of the
cereal here and abroad. The decrease
OF over 1900, 900 bushels in American
stocks, reported In the American Off
cial visible supply on Monday, seemed
to take the trade by surprise, and the
further decrease Of nearly 1000, 600
bushels at points back OF visible supply
points and in Europe and afioat there
for, reported by Bradstreet's on Tues
day, was sufficient TO more than Offset
heavy selling induced by the recent
heavy advance. Sensational advances
ut foreign markets, notably Liverpool,
where rather more credence seems to
be given the theory Of interruption in
supplies growing out Of the war than
there is In this market, were RESPONSE
BILE for further advances later i'm the
week. The greatest strength, Of course,
was on the more immediate positions,

ganlzatlon,
Editor of the New MEXICAN: AS an
nouncement has been made in the NEW
| MEXICAN of the contemplated erection
of an arch by the Daughters of the
American Revolution in Santa Fe, in
honor of the return of the Rough
| Riders" 1t seems only proper to state
that, owing to the irregularity of their
arrival, and the uncertainty Of Captain
Muller's and Lieutenant Coleman's re-
turn, the idea has been relinquished,
and in its place we have decided to con-
| fer upon each man and officer from
Santa Fe, belonging to Captain Muller's
troop, who served in Cuba, a metallic
badge or medal with a figure of a
bronco and rider, and the name of the
| battle or battles in which he was en-
| gagged. engraved on the medal.
On the reverse side, we propose to
have something showing that 1t Is a
medal Of honor, to be kept as an heir
loom. Those citizens who have been
spoken to on the subject are enthu-
%siastic in their accord with the idea,
and, unsolicited, [ have already received
a promise of $26 toward the project.
This in no way interferes with our
| assistance in the plans of the Soldiers
| Aid Society, as nearly all of us are men,
| bers of that organization.
TO quote from the constitution of the
| society of the d. A. R., Article II says
the objects of this society are:
To perpetuate the memory and the
| spirit of the men and women who
achieved American independence by the
acquisition and protection of historical
| spots and the erection of monuments; by
! the encouragement of historical research
in relation to the revolution and the
| publication of Its results; by the preser-
the records of the individual services Of
soldiers and patriots, and by the promo
ton of celebrations OF all patriotic ami"
verSarieS.
Any woman may be eligible for mem
bership who is of the age of 10 and up
wards, and who is descended from a
man or woman who, with unfailing
loyalty, rendered material aid to the
cause of independence; from a recognized
patriot, a soldier or sailor or civil officer,
in one of the several colonies or states,
or of the united colonies or states; pro-
vided that the applicant DO acceptable
to the society.
Every applicant for membership must
be indorsed by at least one member OF
the national society and her applica-
ton shall then be submitted to the
registrar general, who shall report on
the question of eligibility to the general
board of management, when the ques.
ton of admission shall be voted on by
the board by ballot, and il a majority
Of said board approves such application,
the applicant, after payment OF the
initiation fee, shall be enrolled as a
member of the National society.
The initiation fee is 81, and annual
dues are Sc.
I shall be very glad to give any in.
formation relative to the matter, and
we cordially invite those who a prove
their eligibility to become members o.
our society. Very truly yours,

THE STABILITY OF GOLD.
Extracts from the Report of the
Monetary Commission.

The civilized world has determined
that the standard shall be gold. No
government, however powerful, can in
fact reverse that determination or,
without injury 20 the interests of all
its people, attempt to establish any
other standard o. value.
1t is of the utmost Importance that
the standard shall! not only be distinct
" declared in the law, but clearly fixed
in the minds Of the people as the first
and indispensable element of sound
monetary system. All history is evil
dence that the people who suffer the
most from degeneration of the stand
ard are not the rich and powerful, but
the poor ard helpless.
The gold standard does not mean gold
recommendation, and it necessarily re-
suits, not in contraction, but in the
greatest possible expansion Of the cur
rency within the bounds of safety.
If the necessary means be adopted to
secure the stability of the gold stand
ard, the credit of the country will be
established, the national debt can be
refunded at lower interest rates, the
surplus capital of the world will come
here to find profitable investment, and
our country will enjoy the prosperity
that follows n currency system based
upon stable standard Of value.
When popular confidence shall have
been restored as to the maintenance Of
Che gold standard and the security Of
our national cnrrency system there Will
be no general desire to exchange. sil7r
yer dollars or silver certificates for gold,
for the silver curency' will then be,
beyond question, as good as gold.
1t is in the power of the executive de-
partment, as the law now stands, to de-
eide absolutely whether thcgovernment
notes shall be paid in gold or silver.
An end ought to be put to this anoma-
lous and hazardous situation by maxi
ing specific and adequate provision for
the payment of the demand obligations.
and directing in the law that such pay
ment shall be in gold at the demand of
the holder.
There is mo doubt that II our govern
ment were relieved, of its existing de-
mand obligations. and our currency
system put in working order upon a
gold basis, IL would be entirely possible
for us to go through a war without
suspension of specie payment or any
arrangement of the monetary system
