WE have the war that SO many Of the
citizens wanted. Laborers and mechanics
who earn from Is to SO week in Phla.
lelphia, are now paying at the rate of 500
a day more for bread and $4,000 more a
day for meat than they did before the war
was declared one month ago today, and the
end is not yet in sight. 1t is to be hoped
the end will more than justify the means.
We are one of those who will be glad when
the cruel war Is over and the Stars and
Stripes float proudly over the land of tho
oppressed and down trodden, and the end
will have amply justified the sacrifices
that the people of America are making to
set the Cubans free. America, may she
ever be right. but America right or wrong!

LAST night was dream of what the
summer has in store for US poor mortals.
The ice men fairly reveled in anticipation
Of an extra demand for ice today and
arose two hours earlier than usual ard
boned every householder and servant for
patronage. As there are only five ice
companies in our city this year, there will
be no trouble to get prompt service and
small piece Of ice for large piece OF
money. Ice this year will cost the house
keeper go cents for one hundred pounds
with no rebate for shrinkage in weight
from the time tho ice man weighs it until
1t is dropped in tho ice chest in your domi-
cile. If you don't want ice at this price,
you don't have to take it, but it is very
refreshing dropped into glass Of water
or milk, with the thermometer cayorting
around in tine hundreds.

SEVERAL members of City Council yes
terday visited Dover and witnessed the
formal turning over of the State guards
to the National authorities by Governor
Tunnel. The regiment consists Of
twelve companies, numbering LOIS mon
and officers. Unfortunately, not more
than half tho men thus far have received
Shelr uniforms, but this will be reinedied
In few days. Fortunately the day was
warm and clear ard the ceremonies wit.
messed by several hundred persons. May
they ever remember that they represent the
State Of Delaware and do no act which
may reflect on them as soldiers or their
State. We think they are as brave as any
other company that will constitute our
army, and that they will give good &C
count Of themselves and that when the
history of the war is written, they will
receive more than an honorable mention.
The militia has been encamped at Middle.
town for nearly one month and the regl-
ment will, in n short time. receive notice
from Washington to move on to the front.
1t begins to look as II the men would have
something elseto do beside playing soldier
and our boys will be equal to the OCCASION

were sentenced by tho coust to receive 20

Stealing Bread.

George Huber, the Second street baker,
Informed us that on various occasions the
boxes filled with bread at different stores
were broken open at an early hour in the
morning, causing the storekeepers and
their customers great Inconvenience. and
as evidence pointed 10 one particular wo-
man he had to prosecute in order to
stop the annoyance. Had the woman
would have presented her with loaf of
bread at any time and made nc complaint,
but this Interference with his customers
could not be endured and hence his appeal
to the law for protection. We think he
was justified in his proceeding, and the
public generally will approve Of it.

TO BE MADE USEFUL IN FRANCE.

At Least So the Spanish Ambassad OF

ron to Manila ''to Chastise Dewey. u
| Madrid, May 2o.-Although Senior
| Castillo yesterday declined the port
folio OF foreign affairs, 1t is authori-
| tatively stated here that he will start
for this city today to talk over the cabi-
net situation with Senior Sagasta.
Senior Castillo wired Senior Sagasta,
| developing the reasons already ad-
yanced why he might be more useful
in his present position as ambassador
to France than as member of the
government This dispatch has con-
siderably impressed the cabinet. Recent
events, especially Mr. Chamberlain
speech at Birmingham. have opened up
new political horizons. Therefore It
seems important that Spain should be
represented at Paris by an ambassador
well acquainted with the tangled skein
Of European diplomacy and a persona
grata to the French government 1t is
believed that Senior Castillo will fulfill
these conditions. Hence Senior Sa-
gasta's hesitation to recall him. On
the other hand, 1t is difficult to find in
the ranks of the Liberal party a man
equally qualified for the foreign office
portfolio.
1t Is announced that the cabinet
council yesterday decided to strengthen
Immediately the defenses and garri-
sons in the Canary and Balearic ISL
andC and nj
site Gibraltar), a decision which is very
significant, as no apprehensions have
been entertained that the United States
would extend the operations of the war
to the Mediterranean.
The Madrid papers state that in the
Philippines majority Of the people are
loyal, and that the Americans and their
few native allies are unable to con-
quer another acre of soil. Spain will
therefore keep at home the 1000 troops
intended for the Philippines until fur
Their notice, and will Immediately send
the Cadiz reserve squadron to Manila
to chastise Dewey.
In spite Of the veto placed upon the
publication Of Spanish naval move
ments the newspapers here have been
allowed to announce that Admiral Co.
mara's squadron, consisting of the bat
tleship Pelayo, the first class armored
cruiser Carlos V, the auxiliary cruisers
Patricia and Rapido formerly the
Hamburg-American line steamers Co.
lumbia and Normandy. the cruiser
Alfonso XIII, the cruiser Antonio Lo-
PEI, three torpedo boat destroyers and
the armed yacht Giralda, will shortly
sail from Cadiz, while the reserve
squadron, consisting of the Vittoria, |
Numancia, Lepanto and another ves- !
sci, will be organized Immediately.
