It is stated that 14.000 decrepit horses are annually shipped from England to the continent of Europe to be used for human food. In consequence of this foreign demand for worn-out horses, the price has gone up greatly. For merly the old cripples were fed to hounds or sold to geological gardens. The French and Italian cooks disguise horse flesh with sauces. The horse is a cleanly animal and his flesh should be wholesome. The fact that strict attention is given to bone and muscle ln producing him makes him less de- sirable for the table than the OK.

JUDGE DAYS CABLEoRAM.
Informs the President That the Span
iards Will Sign the Treaty.

SDans
iards Will Sign the Treaty.
Washington, Nov. 29.-Throughout
the peace negotiations. which are still
pending in Paris, the president has ex-
pressed confidence that treaty, salts.
factory to the United States. should be
drafted and signed. From time to
time assurances of substantial progress
from the American commissioners.
Today advices were received by the
president from Mr.. Day, president of
the American commission, Ieiterating
the assurances he had previously given
the president of the early and success
full conclusion of the work OF the COM
mission.
Judge Day, it is understood, states
positively that the Spanish commits
sioners formally will accept. perhaps
tomorrow, the terms of the United
States, and that treaty drawn along
the lines of the agreement reached will
be drawn and signed in few days.
The dispatch from Judge Day was the
first absolutely definite statement as to
the conclusion of the labors of the COM
mission that had been received. and,
quite naturally, it afforded the presi-
dent and his advisers considerable sat-
istaction.
1t is probable that the president will
discuss in his message to congress,
which will be delivered one week from
tomorrow, the successful efforts of the
administration in the negotiation of a
peace treaty, although there is possi-
bility that the treaty itself may moi
have been signed at the time.
