has taught several terms of school. He
is an excellent penman, having taught
penmanship in special writing schools.
and his pupils speak we'll of him in this

position OF clerk it cannot be questioned,
and if all the nominees were as strong
men as he, the ticket would poll large
vote.

entire republican ticket is made no of
worthy, competent and intelligent
gentlemen.

thusiasm continues here and in the prov
inces. Senor Aguilea, the civil governor of
Madrid, appeared again last evening in
the midst of the crowds in the streets and
encouraged them to patriotic demonstra-
tions. The people invaded the theaters.
orators appeared on the stages and pa
triotic speeches were delivered to the aud
fences which heartily cheered the stirring
utterances and sang in chorus the national
and patriotic airs played by the bands.
While these popular ebullitions are pro-
ceeding, the ladies Of the Spanish aris-
tocracy, besides aiding in contributions TO
the national fund for the increase of the
Spanish navy, are organizing religious as
sociations under the auspices of the bish-
ops for the purpose of holding day and
night special services of prayer for the
success of the Spanish army and the news
papers and clergy will use the press and
pulpit to keep the enthusiasm to it's pres
ent pitch.
The panic on the stock exchange has
been counteracted by supreme efforts on
the part of the financiers. The tone of the
bourse has notably improved and the rush
to the banks to exchange notes into sill
yer has been stopped by the determination
"a 'io treasury oiiicldiS u allow tne Tree
coinage of silver. Some bankers have been
offered premium on notes. There is no
lack of evidence that Spain has put forth
her whole energy for prolonged strug-
gle.
Great indignation continues to be ex-
pressed against Great Britain, which is
regarded as being partial toward the
United States and unfriendly to Spain.

Flag-Public Enthusiasm Wild
But Aimless

Associated Press Special Wire
NEW YORK, April pa dispatch to
the Herald from Madrid says: A wave
of red hot enthusiasm swept over this
place with the departure of the American
Minister. The demonstration upon the
station platform yesterday was the first
of series that lasted well into the small
hours of the morning. Every time dozen
or more people form into a group one is
sure to give the signal, and viva Es-
pana" is cried until all are hoarse. An in
cident has happened that has unfavorably
troubled these people, superstitious as are
all races with Latin blood in their veins
The handsome building of the New York
Equitable Life Assurance Company stands
at the corner of the Gale de Alcala and
Gale de Seville. High up on the facade
and just below the dome stood last night
an American eagle keeping guard with
outstretched wings over the starred and
striped shield of the United States. Un-
derneath it, fastened to the balcony, was
a Flagstaff where on festivals and holidays
the American flag usually foated.
Yesterday crowd assembled before the
building bowling for the escutcheon to be
crowd became denser. The Spanish flag
was run out on the pole and was greeted
with wild cheers. Finally two men
climbed up to the obnoxious eagle and
shield and succeeded at last in tearing
down the emblem. This they flung to the
crowd below which was waiting with
frantic impatience to tear it to pieces, but

of dismay for moment. Then some one
caught up the flag and waved it aloft,
while the crowd swept around 1t with
howls and even acts of enthusiasm.
Senior Rosilio, director of the Equitable
agency, made a speech from the balcony,
stating that all the employees in the build
ing were Spanish, and that the institu-
tion was mortgaged upon the lives of
Spanish subjects. Now the building is
bright with waving Spanish flags.
Meanwhile the authorities had sent to
the office of the New York Insurance
Company asking Director Reed to remove
the big sign which attracts the eye on
the Puerto del Sol. This rather serious
undertaking-for the sign is large and of
iron-was completed as the day was
dawning.

obliterate everything American, however

amendment providing that "during time OF
actual war promotions for gallantry In the
field may be made for any vacancies In any
grade In the army, without examination
and with regard to seniority"
MI. Lacey made a speech in support Of
his amendment which aroused enthusiasts
tic applause. The provision of the bill, he
said, would make promotions depend upon
seniority and technical skill. Such officers
| as Custer and Sheridan, II the war should
develop such, would be Handicapped. Fight
| Ing ability should be rewarded not ability
| to pass examinations.
Mr.. Lacey's statement that General For
rest, one Of the most dashing confederate
officers, could hardly read and write,
brought storm of protests from the
confederate veterans.
Mr.. Handy of Delaware, Democrat, sup
ported the amendment.
Mr.. Handy offered an amendment to the
amendment providing that the president
should be authorized to promote enlisted
men to the rank of second lieutenants for
gallantry in action.
Mr.. Sayers OF Texas, Democrat, vigorous
ly opposed both amendments. He declared
that If adopted they would open the way
for favoritism and the exercise of polit.-
cal influence
Both amendments were voted down with
out division.
Then, at sos a. m., without completing
the consideration of the bill, the house
took q recess to attend the funeral of Sena-
tor Walthall. The house reconvened after
Senator Walthalls funeral at 1850 p. M,
and resumed consideration of the army
reorganization bill.
Mr.. Settle of Kentucky, Democrat, OF.
fered an amendment providing that the
provision authorizing the president to ac-
cept quotas Of troops Of the states as or
ganized under the laws of such states
shall not take away from the governors
of the respective states their rights to de-
termine how the quota of the states may
be furnished, whether from the organized
militia or volunteers"
The amendment was defeated.
An amendment offered by Mr.. Bailey was
adopted. which provided that the army
at the end of the war should be reduced to
q peace basis by the transfer in the
same arm of the service or honorable dis
charge, under such regulations as the
secretary of war may establish of super
numerary commissioned officers and men.
The amendment removed practically all
the Democratic opposition to the bill.
Mr.. King of Utah offered an amend
ment which was rejected. which provides
that the act should expire by limitation at
the end of two years.
Without further amendment the bill was
passed without division.
The remainder of the day, after o clock.
was devoted to euogies on the life and
public services of the late Senator Earle
of South Carolina, and as further mark
of respect the house at 4:45 p. m. ad-
journed.
