THE PRICE PAID.

Some of the papers have been
figuring on the price Spain has
paid for her pride and pig.headed
bigotry, and the results are start
ling for the contemplation OF the
young king. Thirty-five vessels o'
Spain's navy, valued at s36, 100000
are at the bottom Of the sea. In
Cuba Spain sarrsnders directly a
territory OF $4,000 square miles
with population of 100000; in
Porto Rico 3,670 square miles and
population of $4,000. and in the
Ladrone islands AT square miles
and population of 5000, making
a total direct loss Of 49,0S6 square
miles of territory and 2,325,00O of
population. And there is no doubt
but that Spain will lose control OF
the Philippine islands with an area
of ia, 1926 square miles and a pop
ulation of 100000.
The Spanish Ell National, says
the II Houston Post, coucedes that IN
the destruction of Cefvera's fleet
Spain lost alone $4,000, 600 of in
vested money. The Crissobsl Col.
on was valued q. $4.400.00o and
the vizcaya at $3,600,0O0. The
estimated trading capacity of the
territory of Spain which the United
SLatss has taken is placed at $780,
000,000 per annum at the present
time, and that must be tributary
hereafter to American Golfers and
not to the blood stained ones of
CASTLE and Aragor.
The loss of life which Spain suf
fered in the war, as compared to
the loss OF life sustained by the
United States, AZ compiled by the
