STRUCK WITH A BRICK,
While Bearing a Message to the Cap
tain.General

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Sept. 10.
The American evacuation commits
sioners have held meeting and de-
cided ID notify Captain-General
Macias that they were present and
ready to proceed with business. A
communication to this effect was
drafted In the most courteous terms.
Lieutenant Sears, Rear Admiral
Scheley's Rag lieutenant, delivered the
communicative to the captain gen
eral, driving to the palace in car
rlage.
When approaching the palace
brick was hurled at him from the
sidewalk. He was able to ward Off
the blow partly, but 1T struck him on
the ankle. This IS the first incident
OF the kind since the commissioners
arrlVa. here. Lieutenant Sears did
not deem it advisable to lodge COM
plant, and the police made no ar
rests.
The American commissioners are
determined 10 0rooK no delay, as ln-
dicated by their action, Although
Captain-General Macias recognized
their presence by official visits, they
have not been notified of the appoint
ment or names of the Spanish COM
misslouers, and the names of the
latter haye not been officially gazet-
ted. The thirty days expire on Sun
day, and II the Spaniards are not pre-.
pared TO proceed on that date they
must explain matters.
The Spanish torpedo-boat destroyer
Terror and the gunboat Ponce de
Leon sailed for the island or Mar
Unique today, where they will be
placed in dry dock, as their bottoms
are foul, before proceeding for Spain.
The gunboats Isabel III and Conchla
will follow on Monday.

Albany--M. o. Holt, OF Corvallis

having In custody an individual who
had stolen skiff valued at S25, gun
a knife and other minor articles at
Corvallis. The boat was owned by
Mr.. Holt, and as soon as he found II
had been stolen he procured war

mile above Albany he saw the sklff
hauled up on gravel bar, aud fire

sprang for the gun, but Mr.. Holt had
already secured the weapon, and he
made the fellow get into the boat and
row to this city, where he telephoned
to Sheriff Rickard, OF Benton county,
who came down and escorted the
offender back and to jail. His name
was not ascertained.

Fire at Walla Walla.

WALLA WALLA, WASH, Sept. TO-
Nearly 100000 worth OF property went
up in smoke last evening in half an
hour. The plant OF the Hunt Manu-
featuring Co.. which supplies large
portion Of the harvesting machinery
used in the Walla Walla and Palouse
valleys, together with the Roberts
foundry, two dwellings and Il ware
house, were completely destoyed. The
fire started in the engine room and
swept through the long frame build
ing OF the Hunt shops with such
rapidity that the workmen had
scarcely time 10 escape. Many lost
their coats and hats.

apeace,l !, as Mr. sagasta sagacIoOsly

"Peace,r as Mr.. Sagasta sagacIoUsly
remarks, "has not been concluded -
This pause, after all, is only ln the
nature OF an armistice. True the
Spanish are evacuating Cuba and
Porto Rico, but no shadow of an agree.
ment has been reached In regard IN
the Philippines. Neither has the
question OF the Cuban debt been
touched upon. The questions which
are to come before the peace COM
mission for settlement are OF vital
Importance, and we know enough of
the Spanish character to know that
1t may yet be necessary TO resume
hostillties.
Suppose there should be dead lock
in the peace commission; what then ?
Suppose the Spanish commissioners
absolutely decline to concede some
point insisted upon by the Ameri-
cans. Shall we be obliged to yield ?
Or shall we formulate our demands on
the same principle that the Chatham
street clothingmerchant uses In mark
ing coat and ask four time as much as
we.are willing to take ? Must we now
adopt Mr.. McKinley's scheme In the
Maine "incldent." and leave IL all to
Spanish "honor ?"
1t Is clearly TO be seen that Spain
intends to saddle the Cuban debt
upon the Cuban people, and that she
expects TO retain all of the Philip
pines, except possibly the Island of
Luzon. She Will make a desperate
stand upon both of those points.
Are we ready 10 yield either? If
not, how shall we bring her to terms ?
Suppose that inexplicable thing
called Spanish "honor" should get
mixed up IN the negotiations There
is yet fine opening for more trouble
In this HispSne- Americana busi-
ness. OF course, lit is TO be devoutly
hoped that there Ill be no more seri-
GUS trouble. The point is that there
is chance for 1t, and we must rot be
altogether unprepared.
II the Democrats were inclined to
use the same method that the pros
perlty-howlers do, they could extract
a fine showing from the Vermont
selection. They could blazon to a
wondering world 200 per cent Dem
Dcratic gain over last year. Then
they elected II representatives To the
state leglslature:.This year they elect
80. If that isn't 200 per cent gain
In the Democratic vote, then we are
not thoroughly onto the prosperity
tatlsticlans way Of reckoning the
height of the "waye."
