ence Of a neutral power is a mistake, I'M
less invited by both belligerents.''
It is known that the Spanish ambassa-
doris have been sounding the other ambas-
sailors at all the courts Of Europe, with
the object of inducing concerted representa-
tons at Washington to stop the war. and
there is reason to believe that Great Brit
ain Is no longer alone in demurring to this
ard pointing out the uselessness of such
course On the other hand, it is said that
representations to stop the war have been
made at Madrid. but, judging from the re-
suits, they have not been sufficiently strong
to induce Spain to come to her senses. 1t
is recognized by all. except Spain, that the
United States will refuse to listen to sug-
gestions on the part of the concerted pow
ers In this matter" one of the ambas-
sailors said to representative of the Asso-
ciated Press Spain knows the irreducible
minimum on which the United States will
discuss peace. What is she waiting for?
Spain seems to forget that the United States
can stop the war the moment she likes, now
that she has no Spanish fleet to reckon with.
She can take Porto Rico and the Canary
Islands at her leisure and finally deal with
Cuba in cool weather. Then Spain will con-
slider the terms less ridiculous than now"

NO DISCOUNT ALLOWED.
Rulings of Interest to the Public and
Internal Revenue Collectors.

WASHINGTON. July 22.-The attention of
collectors of internal revenue has been
called to the fact that the discount of /
per cent. allowed by law on internal reve-
nue. stamps, when purchased in quantities
of not less than 800. does not apply to
stamps imprinted upon checks, drafts and
other documents, nor to proprietary stamps
printed from private dies for the use of pro-
prietors of articles who may furnish the
same under the provisions of Section of
the new revenue act.
The particular attention of the public
also, is called to the fact that old internal
revenue stamps issued under former acts
OF Congress, either adhesive or imprinted
on checks and drafts, cannot be lawfully
used upon documents, cnecks, drafts or
notes taxed under the present law. The use
or redemption of these old stamps was
barred by the statute of limitations many
years ago.
The commissioner of internal revenue has
decided that samples of medicinal prepara-
tons and perfumery and cosmetics, taxable
under Schedule Il, under the new revenue
act may be removed from place of manu-
facture for free distribution, without stamp
or payment of tax. Every sample so re-
moved, however, must have legibIy printed
thereon the following notice: This is a free
sample removed from the factory for
gratuitous distribution. Any person selling
or exposing for sale this sample at any time
of the law denounced against persons SELL
ing or exposing for sale unstamped articles
taxable under Schedule b, act of June 10,

MADRID. July 22.-In an interview in the
Correspondence Militar, organ of the army
Senior Gamazo is quoted as saying: 1.-THE
suspension of constitutional liberty cannot
be agreeable to the press because 1t abro-
gates freedom and prevents the publication
Of news which costs much. But at this
moment what can the government do but
check the hostile campaign waged against

treat the question as urgent, and do not
regret my action l will say from my seat
in Parliament that | am convinced did a
real service to my country. AT the same
time l can give you news which will please
the press. The suspension of the Constitu-
ton will not last long, for several reasons.
One of them is the calmness displayed by
the people and the army. 1t is not for me
to conceal the intentions of the government,
which are to conclude an honorable peace,
which will, in the first place, satisfy the
aspiratseas of the army. After that, II
Senior Sagasta should think fit, he will ask
the Queen Regent If she still has confidence

SHE DEFIES THE WORLD.
England Finds She Must Put $40, OOO,-
coo More in Her Navy.

LONDON, July 22-The eagerly expected
statement of the first lord Of the admiralty,
Mr.. George j. Goschen, on the supplement
tary naval programme, was made to-day
in the House of Commons. He reviewed
the original programme, which was consid-
cred sufficient when it was framed, being
based on the two-power system, that the
navy of Great Britain must be equal to the
combined fleets of airy two powers. But, in
consequence Of the action of Russia on the
same system the government was compelled
to present supplementary programme par
alleling the Russian increase of six battle
ships which Russia proposed to begin in
1898. Only two battle ships were taken into
account in the original British programme,
and the flrst lord of the admiralty an
nounced that he now asked the house to
grant four more battle ships. (Cheers.)
Continuing, Mr.. Goschen said: THE Rus
We propose to build four (cheers), and also
twelve destroyers. 1t is estimated that the
cost OF the new programme will be GOO
($40,OOJ00O, making the entire expenditure
for the new ships ELI, coo $3.50 ,000.) The
battle ships will be especially adapted for
the passage of the Suez canal"
Mr.. GOSchen pointed out that her MajeS-
tvs government desired Europe to note that
the proposal was not aggressive, but essen
tial to maintaining principle laid down.
Nor was Russas action menace to Great
Britain. She had the right to build such
fleet as she thought her position required.

scnor Quesada,s views.

WASHINGTON, July 22.-Senor Quesada
called at the War Department to-day re-
garding the alleged resignation of General
Garcia and his withdrawal from co-opera-
ton with General Shafter. He still insisted
that there was d misunderstanding at San
tiago, which would be cleared up as soon as
it became known that the Cubans here
and the Washington authorities desired no
friction. Senior Quesada did not see Secre-
tary Alger, but talked briefly with Assistant
Secretary Meikeliohn, who said that fur
Their information from General Shafter was
necessary before anything could be done by
the department. IT was stated, however,
that there had beeh no withdrawal of sup
plies frornxthe CubanS, and that the ships
which sailed a day or two ago no doubt
were unloading supplies for Gomez which
would be delivered TO him under the direc-
ton of Lieute nant Johnson, who was%in
command of the troops at Gomez's head
quarters.
The town of Jiguari, to which the Cuban
army under General Garcia has withdrawn,
is one of the Towns which the Cubans cap
tured independently during the Santiago
campaign.
