disappointing in that much had
been expected and but little was real
lied. 1t was delayed a week to avoid
a massacre Of Americans in Ha"ana,
and yet when made public tended to
pacify the Spaniards rather than in

OF how the Spaniards received a mes
sage that was heralded with the clar

sage was weak, but it was a vigorous

asked for i'm arnistice until October
and Spain granted the demand, and
having turned the whole question

against a prospective act Of Congress
in favor Of the recognition of Cuban
independence. Senators Foraker,
Thurston and other prominent Re-
publicans are firm in the opinion
that Intervention without the ac-

dence, will place the Cub IN debt, in.

Inter ArInn Silent Leges.

When war is declared, there fol-
lows AN immediate reversal, or ex-
~tinction, of the relations OF civil life
between the peoples OF the two coun-
tries. The maxim, inter arma silent
leges,' becomas operative. All inter-
course between the countries Mt war
ceases, except under special License
from government. Partnerships are
Dissolved, interest ceRses to run, con.
tracts are suspended, remedy OF the
courts for the recovery OF debts is no
longer available. as between belliger-
ents. Individuals of the hostile ma
tons are subject to imprisonment and
their property to c~ontiscation. This
the logical and formal conclusion fol-
lowing the declaration OF hostilities,
but i'll some respects il is modified by
specinl treaty provisions. In the
case Of the United States and Spain.
for instance. for more than ole humid
