The Spanish government Is also en-

The government OF Spain seems to
have funds, for II Is understood to be

Some weeks ago Spain attempted to
purchase ships and supplies in Eng

fused to give credit. Since then Spain

May wheat reached its highest prica
since 1891 on Feb. 10, selling on the
Chicago board OF trade at $1.09. Many
factors have combined to cause this
advance. and 1t is now generally con-
ceded that wheat will go higher be-
fore the new crop is harvested. 1t ia
known that Europe is confronted with
an enormous shortage. Liverpool has
only enough wheat to last week,
The crop in the Argentine does not
meet expectations. On the top of all
this the winter wheat district Is bare
of snow and subject at any time to a
killing freeze. The following daily
quotations since January l6 show the
steady rise In wheat: 9lc. 91Ac, ok,
s17sc. 92c. ssisc. $3.50. ei%c. 97bc,
9s5sc. s47sc. s55Sc, 95i4c. e4ssc. 95isc.
95c. 9iHc. ssAe. s57sc, 9G5sc, 977sc,
ssMc. $3.50. s1.o3A. $l.0s. While the
Cuban war scare may have had a slight
effect on the recent quotations, experts
claim that the prime factor is a
scarcity Of wheat. and expect steadily
advancing prices. Joseph Letter is
shipping 10000 bushels of wheat TO
New York for foreign consumption.

There has been no more extraordin-

than the attempt to maintain a garri-
son in Honolulu. 1t IS not five months
since the First New York regiment,
composed of some of our best National
Guard companies and commanded By
a graduate of West Point, was sent TO
Hawaii's capital, famed for it's pleasant
climate and attractive life, and equip
ped with several hospitals and plentiful
sanitary supplies. The regiment had
no fighting to do. no trenches TO lie in,
no hardships OF any kind to endure,
and yet it is doubtful if any Of the reg
iments which went to Cuba have suf-
fered much more than it has from dis
ease of all kinds. According to the
dispatches Of yesterday, it had no less
than 1852 patients in November 14th, Of

AN ELEMENT OF DANGER.


New York Times
After the daily reports of murderous
disorder among our new coiOred reg1-
ments have continued a few months
longer, it is just possible that some
bold person will venture the sugges-
tion that rifles in negroes hands are
implements as dangerous to the peace
and prosperity of the nation as ballots
have long since proved to be. There
is no doubt at all, and never has been,
that the negro soldier, when led by
white officers, will fight as well and as
long as the next man, whatever the
next mans complexion. This truth
was Illustrated at San Juan, jrst as
it was in the civil w2r, and as IL has
been in many other times aad places
But-and an emphatic butt is not
enough for a soldier to be heroic III
battle. If he is equally ready to show
ferocity toward his own peaceable fel-
low-citizens, it is hardly judieious tc
arm him and train him.
