indifference of our statesmen has pre-
vened the United States from occupy
ing the place to which it belonged. The
American people have had the courage
Of their destiny all the time. They have
never faltered.
Hereafter, I tell you, the maritime,
commercial and political genius of our
people will not permit their governing
power to be Indifferent to their honor or
their progress. An outrage like that
at Santiago de Cuba-where nearly half
a hundred Americans We're stood up
against a wall and shot-would not be
passed over to-day.
How do you suppose similar mas
sacre of American citizens in Havana
would be received this Afternoon? Why,
our warships would be on their way to
that point before midnight. That's the
difference. And it is we'll; it is as IT
should be.
THE United States has ceased to be
the China of the Western Continent.
We are alive, thank God, and we must
not be insulted by any Power in this
world, great or small.
That's the difference between the
United States of the seventies and to-
day.
And is not that change one that
ought to make every patriot glad? Wars
are ineVitable-or all history is false.
Steam power has broadened the arena
No nation is safe. Japan's triumph over
China was robbed of most Of its value
to the victorious nation by the inter-
vention Of a stronger Power.
Are we to be weak like Japan? Can
we contemplate for an instant the in
reference of any Power that shall
abridge the majesty and glory laid at
our feet by the Incompatible Dewey? l
say Never
Therefore you may quote me as
strongly as you can as saying: More
battleships, and after that more cruis-
ers and battleships again. The men
will step forward as fast as we can
build the ships
Suppose that Dewey had been de-
feated at Manila. What might have
been the fate of the Hawaiian Islands
and our Pacific Coast from Behring Sea
to San Diego?
THE Asiatic squadron is one that
deeply concerns u.s. If we are outwit-
ted there we must at once prepare for a
defense of our western coast line from
the same aggressions that have hum
bled the Oldest empire on earth in the
eyes of modern civilization.
What do you think of the cordial re-
lations between this country and Great
Britain?"
"They are timely and welcome. The
aversion to Great Britain has passed

PORTO R1CAN COMMISSION.
Rear Admiral Schley Ordered 10
Go to the Island.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-An order
was issued at the Navy Department.
| to-day detaching Rear Admiral W. >.
| Schley from command of the second
squadron of the North Atlantic neet,
and ordering him to Porto Rico as
| member of the evacuation commission,
during which time he is authorized 10
fly his flag on the cruiser New Orleans
which will remain in those waters until
| the commission is ready to return to
! the United States.
Admiral Schley will be accompanied
| to Porto Rico by the members Of his
staff, now attached to the cruiser
| Brooklyn at New York.
! General Butler one of the members
! Of the Cuban commission, was at the
War Department to-day in conference
with the authorities regarding the du-
ties of the commission Colonel j. W.
Clous of the Judge Advocate General
department. who will act as one of
the legal advisers of the commission,
was also at the State Department to-
| day He had long conference with
Acting Secretary Moore regarding the
| legal aspects of the case. He arrived
here to-day from Porto Rico, where he
| was serving on the staff Of General
Miles.
! The Cuban commission will sail from
| New York next Sunday on the cruiser
Resolute. which will proceed direct to
Havana. General Wade will act as
President of the commission.
! The Porto Rican commission will sail
! from New York next Wednesday on
the army transport Seneca. General
Gordon arrived here to-day from
! Huntsville, Ala, and received his in
structions from Acting Secretary Moore
| of the State Department. 1t was his
| first visit to Washington since his APP
pointment. 1t is expected that he will
| join the other members of the COM
mission in New York.
| The instructions to the Cuban and
Porto Rican military commission were
drawn up and approved by the Presi-
dent before he left Washington, and
are now ready to be delivered to the
President of each before he leaves. The
instructions will not be made public.
The general terms are known to be the
same as the instructions sent to Cen
eral Shafter regarding the government
of Santiago and General Merritt re-
garding the Philippines.
This will mean that the military COM
mission will take control of Cuba and
Porto Rico, the same as the Military
Governor controls that portion of Cuba
surrendered to the United States after
the Santiago campaign. The many
minor details relative to the evacuation
of the island are left to the commits
sion, who will report any difficult or
disputed points to Washington. There
has been doubt that the United States
would take control of Cuba, but the in
structions to the Cuban military COM
mission settles any question regarding
that island, and means that for the
present at least the United States will
assume the government and control Of
the remainder OF the island, as has
been the case in Santiago.

NEW ouAoRuPEo DISCOVERED.
Tough-Skinned Animal Resembling an
Ant-EaterF Found in Patagonia.

Tough-Skinned Animal Resembling an
Ant-Eater Found in Patagonia.
From the London Mail.
In these latter days, when people are
constantly hearing of the threatened
extinction of various tribes of animals,
the news of the discovery of an entirely
new species of quadruped is startling.
The fact of the existence of a hitherto
unknown animal has been brought to
light by DIR. Florentino Ameghino, who
for some time past has had reports of a
mysterious creature of nocturnal habits
brought to him by several Indians. and
a few years ago the late. Ramon Lista,
while hunting in the interior of Santa
Cruz, was startled by the appearance
of a strange animal. which he de-
scribed to DIR. Ameghino las a PAN
COLIN without scales. and covered with
reddish hair" Lista shot at the creat-
ure. but IL was apparently bullet-proof.
for IL disappeared into the brushwood.
and although an instant search was
made no trace of the animal was to be
found.
AS no further evidence was forth
coming. DR.. Ameghino was inclined to
think that the naturalist a been de-
ceived: but he has just received a kin
from South Patagonia which proves
that Lista was correct i'm his statement.
On examination the ossicles which were
embedded in the skin. like paving
stones in a street." proved that the ami
NAL evidently belonged to the pangolins
or scaled ~ant-eaters. familiar to natur-
alists: but instead Of being scaly IL is
covered with coarse, reddish gray hair.
while the skin itself. which is two CEN
timetres thick. is so remarkably tough
that IL can only be cut with a Ratchet.
This explains why h bullet had no
effect upon IL.
IL is hoped that a living specimen of
this interesting ~quadruped will be OBJ
tanned before very long. Such an addi-
ton to the ZOO would be a matter for
co~ngratulation.
