General Toral, the white haired
commander Of the Spani.h forces,
was present throughout the session
and appeared to be utterly heart
broken. He spoke bitterly Of the fate
which compelled him to sue for peace,
but had no word to say against the
gallant men who had conquered his
army. He declared that he had little
chance to win. II would not desire

tho Honor and Dignity of tho Nation.

London, March 2S.--On Friday,
says tho Madrid correspondent Of the
Standard, Gen. Woodford had an
official interview with Scnor Gullon,
the minister Of for, ign affairs, in
which no received tho official reply
Of the Spanish government to tho
American memorandum Of March 5.
The Spanish roply, couched in firm
language, says that tho Spanish
government cannot agree with the
conclusion the American govo'nm n
has drawn from Inaccurate inform a.
ton, that docs not tally with tho re-
cent activity and progress Of tho
military operations in Cuba and tho
visible popularity and progress Of
tho now colonial institutions, VIII ch
have been Loyalty accepted and ire
supported by oven the old adv er-
saries Of homo rulo in tho colo y.

not naturally admit the lntcrfero co
which is forshadowing in the Amcri.

can government of all the concos-

Willingness to submit tho conflicting

Tn conclusion, tho Spanish rc,'ly
shows that the government belle o.
it has reached tho extromo limit Of

admit encroachments on her rig ITS

Washington, March 24.--Con-
gressman Stokes has completed ar
rangements at the Postoifice Depart
ment for extension Of rural free do
livery Of mail in his district in South
Carolina. Naturally, he feols some
elation over this, as he was largely
instrumental in procuring increased
facilities for the rural district when
tho appropriation bill was pending
last week. His argument on the bill
in general, and especially on the free
delivery then, was considered by his
friends as strong and convincing.
Congressman Stokes district is
perhaps one of tho happiest selec-
toDs for test of the system.
Though it has about 100000 popu-
lation, it is almost wholly a rural
community, there being only three
Presidential Offices in it's limits, and
they of the third class. 1t is none too
we'll supplied with even the poor faci!.
tiles afforded by tho four. class post.

AToRpEDo BOAT PURCHASED
The navy department was informed
by coblegram from Lioutenont Col
we'll naval attache to the United
States embassy at London, that
agents OF this government had pur-
chased "Schischau" torpedo boat
that had boen constructed for the
German government. The new ac-
QUESTION is of the general type of
German torpedo boats and is re.
garded as a valuable addition to our
navy. Ono feature regarding her
that affords special qualification to
the officials Of the navy department
is that she is now ready for sea. It
is expected that in few days she
will leave for the United States.
She will bo able to make the Journey
across tho Atlantic without difficulty,
as she is good sea, going vessel and
her coal capacity is ample for the
trip to this country. She is % knot yes
sci, and about $50 feet long. While of
the same general type as the Rodgers
and Foote, Of the United States
navy department the precise dimen-
sions Of the new boat could not be
given. The price paid for her the
navy officials declined at this time to
state, but it was said to be very
reasonable.
Work on the vessel has just been
completed, she mover having been in
service. She is supposed to carry
threo torpedo tubes and two small
calibre rapid,fro guns. Nine to
twelve mon will be needed to man
her.
