MADRID DID NOT INTERFERE.
General Toral Full Swing in
Regard to Santiago

LONDON, July 1s.-The Madrid CORE
spondent Of the Times says:
Captain General Blanco and General
Toral were given a free hand in the sur
render of Santiago. as the government did
not desire to expose Itself to such criti-
cism as followed the destruction of Ad-
miral Cervera's squadron. when it was al
legged that the government ordered Admiral
Cervera to quit the bay.
The necessity of making peace is now
universally admitted. but the necessity of
making it quickly is less generally realized.
and partly owing to Senior Sagasta's inde-
cision, apparently, nothing definite is being
done by the government. which seems in
no hurry to make proposals."

preponderanCe in artillery.
One of the most striking facts of the
campaign is that the Santiago expedition
was insufiic!ently equipped with field guns;
but even had we three times rs many field
absurdly wrong in our notion OF the fight
ing capacity OF the Spanish troops. and OF
the value OF their preparations for defense.
While for three or four days our army
was encamped on the SeviEa branch of the
San Juan, it became n common remark OF
field and company officers that any enemy
with small degree of enterprise could
attack us there and easily do us great dam
age, II. indeed, he could not rout us and
drive us back in confusion, so crowded and
Jumbled was our camp and so imperfect our
formation. 4 high ridge to the westward
OF our center, which was not thoroughly
picketed. would have afforded him COM
mand of our entire position. But not even
a demonstration was made against US. II
WAS only when II was thought that the
Spaniards were erecting new and more
menaoing works in the vicinity of Caney.
which might enfilade our right. that Gem
eral Skaters determination to move at
once was announced.
The reason for the Spanish indifference
to our position and also for the very feeble
resistance which, they made to our ad-
vance near seviila is no longer far to
seek. They had chosen the decisive battle
ground. and there alone did they, wish to
fight. Their confidence in the strength of
the San Juan position was entirely justi-
fled. In the first plass, ths natural con
formation of the country could hardly be
more favorable to defensive campaign.

"The American Boy" fund, the move
mcnt for which was started OF the 10th
OF February, by ". Rankin Good, q Gin
clnnatl high school boy, seems to have
taken root and Is attracting national at.
tention. The young patriots idea was
to raise a fund among the school boys
and girls OF the country to build a bat

Boy"
The idea was a taking one and up.
pealed strongly to the patriotic fervor
OF the schoolboys OF Cincinnati, and
then, It spread 10 other cities and Is now
assuming a move of some proportions.
An organization has been formed, pub
lie men have endorsed 1t. among them
Secretary OF War Alger and Consul Cen
eraT Lee, and the project is being push
cd enthusiastically.
The plan is well conceived, and Is so
well organized that Il seems possible
that the hundreds OF thousands OF
school children throughout the country
will be able to collect enough pennies.
and nickels. and dimes and quarters TO
build for Uncle Sam a splendid battle
ship to replace the n he lost through
the trcachery OF enemies OF the country,
and M which Will be a floating monu-
ment not only to the victims OF the
Maine wreck. but 10 the patriotism OF

republic.

purpose:

Regarding a fund to build The Amer

form a committee In your school, and
then collect all voluntary contributions
from all the citizens and school children
In your town who wish to see a floating
monument placed upon the bosom of old
ocean to commemorate the brave sail
ors Of the ill-fated Maine By building
such a vessel the boys and girls of the
United States would show the world
that not only are the men of our coun
try patriotic, but that patriotism Is born
In the flesh and bred In the bone" OF
every American youth Our committee
has met with much encouragement. and
l think by patient labor we can prove to
all foreign nations that the oncoming
generation. will be loyal and true 10 the
flag, for which their g~randfathers died.
1t Is particularly impressed upon each
boy OF girl who contributes, that they
should induce two others TO do the
same: each new contributor to carry out
the same process with two others. and
so on until every American boy or girl
has learned OF our project and been
given an opportunity to- aid It.. When
you are organized and have thoroughly
canvassed your city, send money by
check or postal order. payable to w.
Rankin Good, and the money will be de-
posted In the Merchants National
bank, which Is to be the custodian of the
fund.
Endorsements have been received from

No salaried officers are allowed, ex-
penses being limited to clerical work and
