The Porto Rican Campaign.

The Porto Rican campaign will be carried on until an armistice is declared in the West Indies. An armistice. even in the West Indies, will not be declared until all points in the direction of peace are well determined that can be determined, and plan perfected for the determination of the remainder An armlstice, or rather cessa- tion of hostilities altogether, is therefore likely to be delayed fully two weeks, pos sibly longer. In this interval General Miles will march to and probably capture San Juan. When San Juan falls the entire island will be in our hands. It is the capi- tai of the province, and the regulars are largely concentrated there.
 The capture of Ponce without loss of life is significant as well as important, but not nearly so significant or important as the warm reception accorded the American troops in the city. They were welcomed to it by the people, and wherever the troops have marched they have met at the hands of the native people welcome un- expectedly warm and hospitable. Porto
 
 Rico, in other words. is glad to get out of the hands of Spain, and into the hands of the United States. They are not in armed rebellion, and have not been in many years, but they none the less welcome a change of political control This fact transcends in rsa1 importance the military side of the campaign. The people un- doubtedly will accept General Miles invi- tation and lend a cheerful support to the new control.
 General Miles is advancing along the hard military road, seventy miles long, that leads to San Juan. Heleaves behind the south coast, wholly in American hands. It is not believed he will encounter any oppo- sition in the heart of the island. What will occur at San Juan depends largely upon instructions from Madrid. Ii Spain decides to accept the American terms, she will undoubtedly see that no lives are wasted pending the more formal settle ment of those terms. In other words, the story of San Juan is to be determined at Madrid.
 There should not be another life sacr1- feed in the West Indies, if the Mckinley Cambon programme is to go through as settlement of the war. Spain and the United States should cooperate to that end. General Miles will soon be before San Juan and he should find there instructions fa ri hloOdShp0 unnec- essary.

SEND HIM BACK.

From the Atlanta Journal.
 Gen. Joe Wheeler is a candidate for re- election to congress.
 We cannot believe that he will have any opposition for the democratic nomination. If any should develop it should be brushed aside by the democrats of the district General Wheeler has made an excellent representative. He has attended closely to the interests of his district, and has been a practical and industrious member of important committees. His continued ex- perience makes him more valuable as a congressman every year, and his record has been conspicuously clear.
 Even under normal conditions it would be bad policy to refuse to General Wheeler another term in congress, but the present conditions make his claims to reelection especially strong. He volunteered for the defense of his country, and has done splen- did service as one of the leaders of its armies. His activity, his capacity, his fear lessness and his enthusiasm have been su- perbly illustrated in Cuba. No general of- ficer bore more of the brunt of the fighting at Santiago, none gave wiser counsel or better directions to our troops in that fierce battle.
 General Wheeer's distinguished services to his country in this war should be rec ognized and rewarded at least to the extent of another election to congress.
 We have not heard of any opposition to his return to the seat he has filled so faith fully, and we hope that there will be none,

The Election News.

The superiority of the Age-Herald's news service again became very plain yesterday morning, when it presented reports from fifty-seven counties in this state, as against thirty-eight in the Montgomery Advertiser and about one dozen in the Atlanta Con- stitution, and like number in the Chatta- nooga Times.
 Not only did the Age-Herald have moro county returns, but as a rule it had fuller and better returns. Storms interfered in one direction striking down the wires, un- til the forms had to be sent down in order to print papers to go early trains. If this trouble had not occurred reports from all but five counties would have appeared yesterday morning in the Age-Herald. The five counties have inferior telegraphic and telephonic facilities, and news from them is not readily gathered on the night of an election. However, the Age-Herald is we'll satisfied with its returns on the morning following the election Returns from fifty seven counties out of a possible sixty-six is not bad record in an off year.

BIG FEES.

From the Atlanta Journal.
 The fee bill of S145, 900 put in by the attor- neys, receivers and other officers in the Eagle and Phenix receivership case has at tracted considerable interest and caused great deal of comment.
 An attorney in the case stated today that while large bills had been presented, it was understood that the parties were willing to settle for less. It is said tEat whether the fees are paid or not, the general credAors the stockholders and the minority bond holders left out in the reorganization, will get nothing.
 The special master to pass upon the fee bills will return to Atlanta Monday and resume the hearing
 The claims are as follows:
 Ellis & Gray filed the original bill and claim fees for bringing the matter into court, s25,0O0.
 Louis F. Garrard represents the Ameri- ican Trust and Banking company. the trus- tee, and claims as fees for filing a cross bill and foreclosing the mortgage, $2O0Oo.
 Abbott & Cox represent the defendant, and appeared for 1t throughout the litiga- tion by order of the court. They claim $10,- 900.
 Glenn. Slaton & Phillips were appointed general counsel for the receivers, and they have filed a claim for s20 900.
 Louis F. Garrard was appointed local counsel for the receivers ct Columbus, and for services rendered there he has filed a claim for $7 300.
 McNeil & Levy claim that they represent ed the depositors as a class, and they claim out of the funds set apart for that class $7 300.
 The trustee claims for its services 5000 The receivers, J. w. English and G. Gun by Jordan, claim that they made S15O,0O0 profit on the business for two years, and personally raised over a million dollars for the mill, and that they are entitled to re- ceive $25. 900 each.
 An attorney who has been prominently connected with the case said today:
 "Al these parties were compelled to name an amount in their petitions, and the above amounts were named in their pleadings It has always been understood that each party was willing to take much less than the amounts named, and we are informed that several attempts have been made to settle with the bondholders on basis that placed some of the claims at about half of what they appear in the papers. "The bondholders bid off the property, and they are represented by Messrs. Goet- cheus & Chappell of Columbus, and Mr. Simons, of the Charleston s. C., bar. "The attorneys claiming the fees con- tend that the money paid in does not be- long to the bondholders except as their rights appear by virtue of the lien they hold, and that the funds in court belong to that person who can show the best title to it.
 "The general creditors will get nothing, the stockholders will lose their stock, and minority stockholders, left out of the re- organization, get left, too, and all this is true even if no fees are paid"

Basic Versus Bessemer.

'1t is," says an eastern journal, "by no means beyond the bounds of possibility, nor perhaps even of prqhs,pility, that ten yo Ts hence the >prane of 'Bessemer steel will no longer appear in the tables of pro- dustion of metals in the United States, be- cause it will perhaps have been superseded by open-hearth steel for all industrial pur- poses. Ten years ago such fanciful state ment this would have been regarded as supremely ridiculous; today 1t may ex- cite little interest, but it will not arouse incredulity in the minds of those who are not ignorant of the facts.''
 This statement is well sustained by cur rent factc Open-hearth furnaces are in- creasng in number; Bessemer steel plants a"e declining. Not single Bessemer plant has been erected since January, 1896, nearly three years ago. There are nine less con verters than there were two years ago. In 1896. on the other hand, there were thirty five open-hearth plants; now there are forty-seven. The forty-seven open hearth plants have 2S6 furnaces, and these fur naces have capacity of 3,522. .25O gross tons of open-hearth steel year. Two years the 245 furnaces had a capacity of 2,43O, ,45O tons. Bessemer has, in other words, lost ground, while the output of the open-hearth furnaces has been increased about g per cent.
 The steady expansion of the steel inter- ests of the country is a remarkable feat ure of the times, and the growth Is all in the open-hearth furnaces. And this ex- pansion is marked by no failures. Capable, courageous men are at the front. Speeula- tion has been eliminated. The industry is well grounded upon steadily increasing consumption of steel in al the markets of the world. Upon this solid ground Bir- mingham is preparing to build. Open- hearth steel is to be the cornerstone. and a better one could not be selected in the whole range of American industries.

FITZHUGH LEE IN CAMP.
Gilson willet's Jacksonville Letter in ]

GiIson willets Jacksonville Letter in Les-
 lies Weekly.
 General Lee gives his days to his soldiers and his evenings to the social demands of the ladies. Already his corps is called the Fighting Seventh" This makes the gen. eral scowl The idea of calling his con- mand fighting one when not single man in the corps has been under fire. The gen. eral is not hard, but a persistent drill master. He gets his brigade and division commanders up very early in the morn ing and has them trot out the men for drill. Never mind the manual of arms; never mind the show tactics. Teach the men how to fire their guns, how to aim at something and hit the mark, how to march so as to avoid surprise, how to fall into lines of attack and reserve Teach the men real warfare, enemy or no enemy. No mat ter how hot the sun, no matter if the sand burns the feet-get the men seasoned These, in part, are Lees orders.
 At the same time the general has given orders to allow the men all possible liber- ties when off duty. As result, the streets of Jacksonville are full of boys from Iowa, Illinois, New Jersey, North Carolina, Mis- sissippi, Arizona and Virginia. They have bought up all the live alligators to send home. And now that it is apparent that they cannot go to the front for some time to come, they have sent for the fond pa- rents to come from all parts of the coun- try to receive the live alligators in per- son. So the hotel is crowded with mammas and papas, and General Lee and his staff have a hard time in Keeping their spurs from tearing the skirts.
 Lees staff, by the way, Is something Jacksonville is mighty proud of. The mem bers of his staff. on their part, have all they can attend to, when off duty, in an- swering invitations to dinners, teas, card parties. Think of entertaining the sons and grandsons of several presidents and vice. presidents the United States all at once. For here on Lees staff are Algernon Sar- toris grandson of the only Grant; Major Hobart, nephew of the present vice-presi- dent; Russell Harrison, son of the second Harrison; Fitzhugh Lees own son. and Lieutenant Carbonal, husband of Evangel- ina Cisneros.
