In an order to the army relative to
the health and efficiency of the SOL
diers, Gen. Miles says: "The history
of other armies has demonstrated that
in hot climate abstinence from the
use of intoxicating drinks is essential
to continued health and efficiency"
This precautionary advice of Gen.
Miles to officers and men of the army
might be needed with profit by civil
fans who mistakenly suppose that al
cohelic beverages are beneficial in hot
weather. The truth is directly the con-
trary. Other things being equal, he
endures hot weather best who is least
addicted to the use of intoxicating
liquors Of any kind. The above re-
marks apply also to cold weather.

Hail Plays Sad Havoc With Window
PQnee

Chicago, July 80. - Thousands of
window panes were broken during q
heavy hail storm in this city. Rain,
which fell in torrents for an hour af-
ter the hail stones had done their
work, did great damage to the interi-
ors of apartment buildings and school
houses. Most of the damage to win
dows and skylights occurred in the
North and West sides, where the north
windows of nearly every prominent
building We're broken. Horses, pelted
by hail. ran away in every direction,
but no one was seriously injured. The
shrubbery in Lincoln and Washington
parks was cut up and the green houses
were badly damaged. Buildings in the
downtown district had some glass
broken in the upper stories. In the
suburbs trolley wires were down in
many places and the streets were
made impossible by, .backwatera from
the sewers. Many horses were killed
by contact with life trolley and cleo
trio wires. The temperature which
has. been lowering around 80 for sew
eral days dropped to 60 after the
storm.

TIL President Wants the Hawaiian
Commission to Proceed at Once.
Washington, July Ex-senator Nor
gan of Alabama, member of the Ha-
waiian annexation--co commission, saw
President Mckinley and suggested to
him the wisdom of delaying the de-
parture and work of the commission
until about Oct. 1, in view of the ex-
listing Spanish-American situation and
the desirability Of adjudication first
of matters connected with Hawaii's
land laws. The president. however,
thought that it was best to proceed
with the important work at once, and
accordingly the present plan of the
commission to sail from San Fran
cisco on Aug. 10 remains unchanged.
The president, in the course of the
conference, expressed himslf as highly
plased over the enthusiastic reception
of the news of the annexation in the
islands.

London, July so. A special from
Madrid says: The government does
not conceal that 1t hesitated for some
days to go beyond an unofficial expl0r
alton at washington because the dip
lomatic agents employed to make the
soundfngs gave conflicting accounts of
President Afclxinley's disposition, One
represented him as eager to terminate
the waE on moderate conditions; the
other that the most Onerous conditions
would be imposed, SO much SO that the
Madrid government thought 1t useless
to sue officially. When, however, 1t
was seen that the American war
preparations continued, Duke Almo-
dovar Gle Rio, minister of foreign af
fairs, was instructed to send the note.
The cabinet met Wednesday evening
to deliberate as to the best means and
channel of negotiation. Paris and Lon
don We're both discussed. No decision
was arrived at, but majority favored
sending Senior Moret, former minister
of the colonies, on a special mission to
London to negotiate the treaty of peace
with Ambassador Hay. Official feel
Ing favOrs direct negotiations without
Interference From Outsiders,
even with regard to the Philippines.
There is little doubt that If President
McKinley's reply proves an acceptable
basis the negotiations will not be pro-
tracted, since Spain, for many rea-
sons, is desirious of speedy settle
ment, and not least SO because at the
present moment public opinion is calm.
After yesterdays cabinet council Senior
Sagasta, the premier, said he had
grounds for hoping that an under
standing might be arrived at, but he
could say nothing definite. Duke AL
modovar de Rio said the European
cabinets had been Informed of the step
Spain had taken, but not as to the text
of the note sent to President McKin-
ley. The cabinet council will meet
again this evening, by which time
President McIxinley's reply is expect
ed. The ministerial Ell Correo says
the government communicated to the
queen regent in council a dispatch in
timating that President Mckinley in
principle assented to the opening Of
negotiations.

Norfolk, Va, July 30. - Whether or

Colon will be floated depends largely
on the expedition which left here yes

pany is sending out the German
steamer Senior, under the German
flag, with Capt. Peter Peterson in
command and Capt. Chittenden in
charge of the expedition, while Capt.
Tooker will look after the forty divers
and wreckers who go along. On the
steamer are huge pumps, boilers, surf
boats and general wrecking material,
but interest centers in the two monster
pontoons suggested by Lieut.. Hobson,
to be placed under the hull after the
Colon is pumped out. The Merritts
here have further advices that the

Washington, July 3O.-Secretary Al

outskirts of Santiago. The health re-
port shows surprisingly large num-
Der OF cases of sickness, but an army
surgeon authorized the statement
that these figures are misleading in

may not be nearly SO bad as they
would seem to indicate. The slightest
atlment of the most temporary nature
sufttces to place soldiers name on
the Sick reports, while nothing would
distinguish between such case and
ole of mortal illness. The inference
is that many of these cases in Shat

go to swell Its grand total Of sick and
wounded. Notwithstanding this nit
flating fact. Secretary Alger is going
to remove the soldiers at the very
earliest opportunity to more health

The National Gazette remarks that
the United States have not won vic

pose. says This suggestion from
would-be friends of Spain merely
shows that these critics entirely fair to

money to meet the cost of their educa-

one-third of the entire class, have re-

arships, which means free tuition from
the funds at the disposal of the faculty
for this purpose. According to their
