WAR EXPENSES.

Frank A. Vanderlip in McClure's
Magazine for October gives from the
records in the treasury department
the cost of the war with Spain. OF
the $5O,OOO,000 put at the disposi-
tiOn of the president In March, $780,
973,274 was assigned TO the navy
department, $19,811,6 ,647 to the war
department, $4,000 to the treasury
department, and $53,860 to the state
department. In few weeks the num-
Der of vessels in the navy was more
than doubled. The list of new yes
sells included twenty-seven converted
yachts, twenty-six tugs, eight golfers,
eight cruisers, and nine torpedo
boats, lighters, and supply-ships.
This new fleet was purchased at a
cost of S17,748,385. Many vessels
were also leased for use as transports,
ice boats, lighters, and water barges.
The auxiliary crusier Harvard, for
merly the steamship New York, and
the Yale, formerly the Paris, each
cost the government $4,000 a day.
They were appraised at S1,9OO,O0O
each, and IN case either had been lost
the government would have been re-
sponsible for that amount. The St.
Louis and the st. Paul were hired by
the government at $4,000 a day and
their appraised value was $3.175,O0O
each. The armament of all these
new vessels was an expensive matter.
The cost OF thirteen-inch gun is
$4,000 and its mount S19,50O. An
eight-inch gun costs $4,000 and its
mount $1,000. To fire one of the
thirteen-lnch armor-piercing shells
costs $500. The eight inch shells,
which have proved so effective in
this war, are fired at cost of $134.
The trainload of ammunition which
was sent to Admiral Dewey and
which he carried into Manila harbor,
taking in po owder, shot and shell, cost
100000 Each of the five times
his squadron passed the firing arc be-
fore the Spanish fleet 1t expended
100000; that is TO say, it cost the
United States government 100000
to destroy the Spanish feet in Manila
bay. II cost the government $780,
600 to destroy Cervera's fleet before
Santiago. The collier Merrimac,
sunk by Lieutenant Hobson in the
attempt to block Santiago harbor,
cost $4,000. Every time fleet is
moved the government is at great ex-
pense. Admiral Dewey's coal bill
for the month of April last was $751;.
S72.
The expenditures for the army
from March 1st to Sept. 9Oth were
$132, ,5O8, and for the navy s59,-
042,975. This is an increase over
the expenditures for the same months
last year of 136,495,586. The total
war expenses are estimated at $361,-t
100000. The daily expenditures in
the midst of war were about $780,
600. They are now about S33O,0OO
a day, or S1O,OOO,OOO a month.

AT WHEELING PARK.

The Wheeling Park management was
fortunate In being able to provide such
q fine opening attraction as the Chica-
go Marine Band. with Thomas P. Brooke
as conductor. But for the fact that the
band was en- route from the west to
Willow Park, near Philadelphia, where
1t Is engaged for the entire summer,
this band could not have been heard
here at this time.
Two sections OF the . o'clock Elm
Grove motor were necessary to accom-
modate the crowd from the city that
gathered at the Sixteenth street sta
ton, and before this hour several hun
dred people had gone out to the park
from town. In addition, the suburbs
were literally represented at the parks
matinee concert. The crowd was estl-
mated at 1000 to $500 people.
The afternoon and evening pro-
grammes were made up largely OF pa
triotic music, and the audiences were
not slow in applauding the musicians.
Especially was this true when Miss
Sybil Sammis, the bands vocal s%oloist,
sang 1.-THE Star Spangled Banner" and
followed with America" Mr.. Kryl. the
cornetist, was also given n warm re-
ception, his work on this instrument be-
Ing OF n high order. In its concerted
work, the band showed Itself to be un-
der remarkable control OF Mr.. Brooke,
whose conducting has been compared
on terms OF equality with such leaders
as E;erbert. Sousa and Inaes.
The evening audience was larger than
that IF tho N ffatpnnn and tho rarartipp
given the musicians was fully ms warm.
The closing number. THE Star Span
sled Banner" vas given with a fire and
dash that brought. a storm OF applause.
The band concludes Its Wheeling
Park engagement to-day, concerts be-
Ing scheduled for afternoon and even
Ing. For the afternoon concert, ample
accommodations have been made by the
Wheeling & Elm Grove road to carry
very large crowds. There will be at
least two sections OF the 2 o'clock mo-
tor. For the evening concert, special
motors will leave the city station at
1880 O'Clock. To-day's programmes are

SCHOOL MELANGE.

Az the regular monthly meeting OF the
principals N Thursday afternoon. the
matter OF making ali necessary arrange
ments for the meeting OF the West vlr-
GINA Educational Association. to be
held IN this city June 2ath and soth and
July LIST, was fully talked over. and the
arrangements for the reception and en-
tertalnment OF the members OF the same
were about completed. II was decided
that the address OF welcome would be
given on behalf OF the teachers by SUI
p~erintendent Anderson. and that the
president OF the board OF education
would be. asked to speak on behalf OF
the board. and the mayor would be ask
ed to speak on behalf Of the city.
committee of reception was appointed,
consisting OF the principal and three
teachers OF each school. and there was
also appointed a committee to secure the
best rates possible from the hotels and
various boarding houses. On the after
moon and evening OF June 30th'the meet
ings will be held In, the Casino at Wheel
Ing Park. A banquet will be given In
the evening. AT night DR.. Robert
Nourse will give one OF his stirrirS lee:
lures. The teachers OF Wheeling have
determined to give the members OF the
association a royal reception, and that
they will do 80 goes, without the saying.
Our worthy state superintendent OF free
schools says In a recent letter that this
must be made the best meeting In the
history OF the association, and It will no
doubt be everything he expects. The
music for the occasion will be under the
supervision Of the competent director of
music In the Wheeling schools Miss
Lucy Robinson. which Insures this feat
ure OF the meetings n success. There
Is no reason why Il school teachers
and authorities should not consplre to
make this n OF the greatest occasions
Occasionally, ever had in our state. To
do this there Is an amount OF money to
be raised. While the teachers have re-
spondel nobly, and have already raised
the great bulk OF 1t. 1t surely would be
no more than Just that our business
men should assist them In bearing the
burden; for there are no men and women
that come to our city to spend q week
more capable OF telling to others the
sdvarLages of the metropolis Of West
Virginia. They ought to go away with
a desire to come again. Make them
feel at home while among us, and they
will not only ONE again, but will send
many others.

familiar to them as 1t Is to the sailors OF

wisdom on the part OF our teachers to

The examinations for promotion to the
high school will be held In the ward
schools June 3rd. 9th. 10th, 18th and
18th, one branch each day. The candi-
dates for promotion know just when the
examination take place, and those who
really have an ambition to be promoted
will surely improve the time from now
until these days OF trial come. It is
questionable whether these examinations
always show the real scholarship of the
pnpil-really 1t Is not questionable, for
they do not. but until there Is some bet
ter plan. this one will be used. for a well
prepared manuscript in a majority of
cases Is a pretty sure sign that the pupil
Is able to pursue the studies Of the high
er grade, though In a few cases the ner-
vous strain Of an examination may pre-
vent the pupil from doing justice.

YELLOW FEVER
Has Made It's Appearance at
Guantanamo.

Copyright, 1898, by Associated Press)
Playa del Este. Guantanamo Bay,
Cuba, July 13.-The known presence of
yellow fever at Caimanera, Guantan-
amo. and other towns in the vicinity of
Camp AIcCaIIa and along the coast has
resulted in the establishment of the
strictest quarantine.
Hereafter no communication will be
allowed with the north side of the bay
and no one will be permitted to land
from vessels entering the harbor here
without a special permit from the COM
manding officer. This may result in
considerable inconvenience to the
newspaper dispatch boats. 1t also cuts
off communication with the insurgent
force around Guantanamo, under the
command of General PIERRE, and the
regiment of Colonel Thomas.
The rules will also be rigidly enforced
at Camp McCalla, although the general
health of the American marines is re-
markedly good.
The Spaniards in and around Calm
anera have been shown great activity
during the last two or three days and
their forces there have been apparently
increased from Guantanamo. The bold
ness of the American launches in ven
turing up beyond the port and the
presence of a large number of WarshipS
in the lower bay have evidently led the
Spaniards to believe that an attack is
plan6d at that point
