REMOTE CHANGES
FOR PEACE
Change of Opinion Among the People,
Will Not Listen to Suggestions
Concerning Abandonment of Cuba
or Porto Rico.

New York, July 16.-Madrid advices
say that the prospects of peace are very
remote. Notwithstanding friendly ad-
vice from Paris and many strong petit
tions from the principal commercial
bodies throughout Spain, the Sagasta
cabinet is still obstinate. The only
concession that they will listen to is to
allow Cuba to decide by election the
the form of its government.
There has been decided change of
front among the people during the past
three days. and any suggestion of aban-
donment of Cuba or Porto Rico would
be scornfully rejected. This, in face of
the situation at home, il most desper-
ate. Carlists are most active; finances
are absolutely ruined. Still Premier
Sagasta, who really desires peace, would
not dare to suggest any form of peace
negotiations that would be acceptable at
Washington.

THE TRIP DID NOT PAY.
Dartmouth Has Detracted from Her Rep
utation by Her Defeats.

The absolute folly of any college foot
ball team undertaking a. barn storming
expedition has been often exploited,
but never more forcbly than last week
in the case of the Dartmouth eleven.
That team undertook to cover about
three thousand miles of territory, to
play three hard games, and to win all
of them,a and all in the space Of one short
week. The result was exactly that
which was to have been expected.
Dartmouth lost every game and de-
tracted from rather than added to her
prestige upon the gridiron.
1t is extremely doubtful whether it
is policy for any college team to I'M
dertake a semi professional trip in
which the paramount thought is not of
victory, but of financial gain. IL has
been done many times, especially with
base ball teams but colleges are now
beginning to drop the practice, the
sentiment being that they should con-
fine their efforts to contests with other
colleges. Foot ball is the hardest and
most eXhaustilg game in the curri-
culum of college sport, and it is not to
be expected that the same eleven men
can stand up for three hard games
with teams that are their equals in
five days and make a creditable show
ing. Yet that was what Dartmouth
undertook to do. How well she sue
ceeded the scores of the games best
show.
The plea will undoubtedly be raised
by Dartmouth men that the games
were arranged, primarily, with a view
to advertising the college in the west
1t is a question how much favorable
advertising is to be derived for a col
Iege from three losing games.
