Gentlemen-While l have no personal

THE Confederate Veterans, who had
a convention at Atlanta last week, de-
cided that the Rouss Battle Abbey
should be located in Richmond. We
think that their decision is a very SEN
sible one. Richmond, the capital OF
the Confederacy, a typical southern
city, is the place for the memorial OF
the Lost Cause.

PEACE NOW A PROBABILITY.

utter inability to continue the war
with the United States, and on Tues
day began negotiations for peace. The
overtures were presented by M. Cam
bon, the French ambassador in Wash
ington, acting for the Spanish govern
ment. While no specific proposition
was made by the Spaniards, and there
has been no cessation of hostilities, it
would seem that it only remains for
the unfortunate Dons to concede all
that this government in justice shall
demand. While there has been no
authoritative statement of the specific
demands which the United States is
likely to make, reliable unofficial
sources define them as follows:
Complete independence Of Cuba un-
der the protection ofthe United States;
the absolute cession to the United
States of Porto Rico and the Ladrones;
coaling station in the Philippines.
The extreme concessions that Spain
is supposed to be willing to make are;
The cession to the United States of
Porto Rico the cession to the United
States of Cuba rather than the recog-
milton of the independence of the island.
Affairs are being rapidly put in Or
der in the neighborhood Of Santiago,
and with the surrender of the 1000
Spanish soldiers occupying Guantona-
mo the pacifcation of that region is
about accomplished, The most seri-
Gus problem left for the Americans to
contend with is yellow fever, which is
now raging at Santiago. On Monday
500 new cases were reported and the
epidemic shows no signs of abating.
Fortunately it is Of mild type and
the death record is low.
Gen. Skaters report of the casual
ties to the American army at Santiago
shows that 231 were killed, 81 missing
and so officers and 1908 men were
wounded. Of the naval battle, Ad-
miral SIMPSONS report contains moth
ing new, and, as was expected, COM
pletely ignores Commodore Schley s
brilliant achievement, but the public
does not, and however much Of the
glory the Admiral may take to him
self Schley is the hero in their eyes.
The scene of action has changed to
Porto Rico where an army under Gen.
Miles landed at Guanica on Monday.
Gen. Miles is to have $4,000 men and
the campaign is to be vigorous one.
San Juan, which is rs miles from Guam
lea, is readily reached by fine mill
tary road, and as the conditions for
fighting are more favorable to Amer
lean methods than those at Santiago,
it is thought but little difficulty will
be experienced in bringing the cam
paign to rapid termination.
In the Philippines everything is 60
ing badly for the Spanish and Dewey
is daily gaining strength and popular
ity. Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader,
has captured 1000 Spanish troops in
Guiding number of officers. That
the ultimate success Of American arms
is now conceded by the Powers is
shown by their request that the Amer
lean policy with regard to these is
lands be made known as soon as pos
sible so that no radical changes in
their foreign relations shall occur with
out due notice. The reply Of this gov
eminent was substantially this, that
no policy had as yet been mapped out,
but we would sndeavor to so conduct
affairs as to give no cause for offence
to anyone.

WHEN our government advertised
for bids for the transportation of the
captured Spanish soldiers from Cuba
to Spain the ten big ocean steamship
companies of this country promptly
got together and laid their plans to
fleece Uncle Sam. They formed a
pool and fixed their bids at $ll0 for
each officer and $55 for every private,
fondly thinking that no one else could
bid for the job. But Spanish steam
ship line, with smart American in
its management, quietly slipped in
with a bid of $50 for officers and $50
for the men, and got the contract. We
record this as one Of the few instances
where the government got ahead Of
the contractors. The saving is about
three quarters Of million.

IS. F. Financial Letter. Aug. -
The statement of the Hawaiian Com
merciaI and Sugar Company, July 1sJ.
shows what splendid condition the
Company IS in. The liabilities at that
date were $298. 500. which includes $50
go for the new pump and $4,000 for
the new mill. which constitute the
chief improvements authorized at the
annual meeting. The sugar afloat
amounts 10 4.74O tons and the amount
to be shipped is about 1000 tons, max
ing at total of $40 tons. At SO per
ton. the price at which the previous
shipments sold, this would yield SOIL,
500 Less the liabilities, there would
remain a net profit of S313,300. That
is the profit for the year up to July
LIST after paying operating expenses, in
terest on the bonded debt, and Tetir-
ing seventy-five bonds, amounting TO
S36 .45O and providing for the new
pump and new mill and other improve
ments. In six months from the date
of that statement there Will be a crop
Of from b to II thousand tons ready
for the mills. That crop at $40 ton
will give the company from $l,150,OOO
to 81, $1,000 gross. Deducting a year 5
expenses, including all expenditures,
which will fall short of $500, 900 there
will be left on hand next July, the sur
plus of 1913, 300 now on hand in sugar,
and the profit of 100000 or 100000
made on next years crop. So that the
company will have a fund of about a
million dollars in the treasury next
| July, with all its obligations up to that
time paid. The prospects OF the COM
pany are exceedingly bright.
At the beginning of the present cam
paign, it was estimated that the sugar
| crop of the Hawaiian plantation would
! be 10000 tons The crushing season
| is now over and it is ascertained that
| the crop is $4,000 tons, two thousand
| tons in excess of the estimate. Inc
weather thus far has been very favor
able for the growing crop and it is estl-
mated that the crop for the next cam
paign will be goo tons.
