WASHINGTON, Aug. l3.-With sim
picity in keeping with republican insti-
tutions, the war which has ragged be-
tween Spain and the United States for a
period of three months and twenty-five
days was quietly terminated at twenty
three minutes past four o'clock Fri
day afternoon, when Secretary Day for
the United States and M. Cambon for
Spain, in the presence of President Nc
klnley, signed protocol which will
form the basis of definite treaty of
peace. 1t is but simple justice to our
sister republic of France to record the
fact that to her good Offices this speedy
termination of war that might have
gone on infinitely was brought about,
and the president himself deemed that
action on the part of the French govern.
ment as worthy of his special praise.
The closing chapter of events that led
up the signature of the protocol and the
cessation of hostilities was full of inter
est. 1t was not until half past II that the
note began to come from Madrid in
small lots.
At 2:45 Secretary Thiebaut, of the
French embassy appeared at the state
department to inform Secretary Day
that the ambassador was in full posses
sion of the note; was fully empowered
to sign the protocol for Spain and on,y
awaited the pleasure of the state depart
ment. He lntimated that the ambassa-
dor would be pleased to have the final
ceremony conducted in the presence of
President Mckinley, where the nego-
tiations were begun. Leaving the sec
retary Of the embassy, Secretary Day
made a short visit to the White House
to learn the presidents wish in the
matter. The latter Immediately agreed
to adopt the suggestion and Mr.. THE
baut hastened to inform his principal
that the president would receive him at
the White House at o'clock.
At the appointed hour driving rain
storm prevailed, obliging all the parties
to resort to carriages for transportation
to the White house. Secretary Day
came first with large portfolio under
his arm, enclosing copies Of the proc
tocol, OF the proclamation to be issued
by the president, stopping hostiities,
and some other necessary papers. He
was accompanied by Assistant Secre-
tary Moore, Second Assistant Secretary
Adee and Third Assistant Secretary
Cridler. They went Immediately to the
cabinet, where the president sat in
waiting. He had invited to be present
Assistant Secretaries Pruden and Corte-
lou and Lieutenant Colonel Mont
gomery. When Ambassador Cambon
reached the White house it was lust
3:55 O'Clock, 5 minutes in advance of
the appointed hour.
The document was handed to NJ.
Cambon first and then to Secretary Day,
who affixed signatures in that order to

PEACE PREVENTS BATTLE I;
Pennsylvanians In Position to Fire a,

Pennsylvanians In Position to Fire al
Guayama When the News Comes.
GUAYAMA, Porto Rico, Aug. 13 (via
Ponce Aug. 15;.-Hostilities were
brought to an end here today amid the
groans and murmurings of the soldiers
under General Brooke. VINO were about
to begin movement whose end seemed
certain victory.
Spaniards, massed in strong defenses,
lay right before our lines in easy range.
Light artillery Battery B Of Pennsylva-
MIA had been ordered into position to
begin the engagement, the guns of the
first section had been brought up and
ammunition had been unlimbered, u
shell had been placed on the chamber,
and a Pennsylvania stood ready to
fire. Suddenly there was shot from
the rear. Two men on horseback
dashed into view frantically waving
their arms. The men at the guns
waited.
The horsemen We're Signal Lieuten-
ant Mclaughlin and an orderly. They
had ridden hard from the end of the
military wire that was built in the field
to General Brooke's headquarters. The
order to commence firing had been given
when the lieutenant and orderly reached
the gun.
Cease action" shouted the ieuten-
ant. Then to the wondering artillery
men he explained that the war was over
A message had been received from Cen
eral Miles by General Brooke, he said,
directing that all hostile military oper-
ations should be stopped. The peace
protocol had been signed by represent
atives of both governments.
The Pennsylvanians, officers and
men, howled with disgust, and when
the lieutenant delivered General
Brookes order that they should return
to the camp at Guayama they silently
wheeled the guns about and went
erumbling to the rear.

each side OF the TWO copies. Inen une
last detail in making the protocol bind
ing was administered by Assistant Sec
retary Cridler, i'll charge of the chan
Gerry work, who attached the seal of the
United States. Throughout the cere-
mony all but the two signers remained
standing. 1t was 4:23 o'clock when the
final signatures were attached to the
protocol.
Without delay Acting Secretary Allen
hastened to telephone and directed that
cable messages be Immediately sent to
all the naval mmanders-Dewey, in
the Philippines; Sampson, at Guanta-
namo, and all the various commanders
at navy yards and stations to cease hos
tilities Immediately.
There is also dispatch boat at Hong
Kong, and it is believed that it can
reach General Merritt in 4S hours at
top speed.
On the part of the army, while Secre-
tary Alger availed Of the telegraph, Ad-
jutant General Corbin braved the storm
and rushed across to the war depart
ment, where he Immediately issued the
orders, which had been prepared in ad-
vance, to all of the military command
ers to cease their operations. The state
department filled its duty by notifying
all diplomatic and consular agents of
the action taken.
The protocol in general is reiteration
of the terms of the note given to Spain,
with very little difference in the Ian
guage of those terms. The most sub
stantial difference is in regard to the
evacuation Of captured territory. The
note, as handed to Ambassador Cambon
called for immediate evacuation of Cuba
and Porto Rico, while the protocol
leaves the time Of evacuation to be sub
sequently determined upon by joint
military commission of the United
States and Spain
The protocol provides for two COM
missions, first the peace commission,
which will meet in Paris, and second,
the military commission, which will
meet in Havana province within Is
days. The military commission
will be created Immediately on the sign
ing OF the protocol. It's duties are of
great Importance. 1t settles the de-
tails of the evacuation of the Spanish
armies from the West Indies, and de-
cldes all questions relative to the re-
moval OF submarine mines, the immedi-
ate REIMBURSEMENT to the United States
OF the great fortresses at Havana, San
Juan and other points and the transfer
OF possession of Manila city itself.

the unharvested crops: Corn, "a per

potatoes, rs; apples, 63; grapes, SO; pas

by correspondents a day or two previous
to Aug. l and before the drouth was eff
fectually broken. The condition of corn
has been materially advanced since
that date and probably brought very
near to the normal for this time of the

CHICAGO, Aug. lT-An advance at st. Louis
OF ssc and buying here on liberal SCALE mainly
by shorts, who seemed disposed to take profits,
started wheat here upward. Receipts here
were only 81 cars against 1873 last year, and the
slow movement at other primary points indi-
Gated that the winter wheat crop was being
held of the market. The feeling among traders
generally was that the uniformity and stub
bornness of the small receipts suggested the
possibility OF a concerted action on the part of
the growers to hold of for higher prices. Sep
tember opened at 651 14(g85ssc, sold up to 657sc.

One Cent a Mile Rate For Tolls.

DEs MONIES, Aus. 11.-One cent a
mile will probably be the rate deter
mined upon for toll line service by a
meeting of mutual companies which is
being held in Des Moines this afternoon.
The agreement will also provide for a
minimum rate of 20 cents within a
county. Tolls heretofore have been
on the basis of a minimum of
20 cents with 10 cents added
for each county passed through. The
mileage basis is thought to be the
most feasible plan of adjusting and
equalizing tolls. The leading mutual
companies are represented.

Pingree's potato Idea has been car.
ried out by unemployed printers OF
New York city and the type farmers"
have gathered the fruit of their toll.
Early this spring grant was obtained
from the park board of 321 acres of
ground at Pelham Park bay for Gull
tiyation the ensuing summer by mem
bers of the printers union. Plats
were assigned to each cultlvator, who
worked under the direction Of a COM
petent instructor. All the produce
raised belongs to the cultiyator, who
can sell it himself or consign It for
sale to foreman appointed by the
land committee.
Prominent as promoters of the
scheme were the well-knowa lawyer
and clubman, Bolton Hall; DR.. William
Tolman, of the New York Association
for the Improvement Of the Condition
Of the Poor; Prof. Gould, of Johns Hop |

TAPEWORM IN AN EGG.
Jersey City Doctor Finds One That
Measures Four Feet in
Length,

DR.. Seth B. Sprague has on exhibit
ton a tapeworm which he took from
an egg that was served with several
others for his breakfast at jersey City.
n. j., the other morning. Dr. Sprague
says that the egg had cracked in boil
ing, and when he took 1t from the
dish be saw what seemed TO be a worm
protruding from the orifce. Carefully
removing the shell, he found the worm
coiied up, and when 1t was stretched
out 1t proved to be four feet long.
The white and yolk of the egg. DR..
Sprague said, were in perfect condi-
taon, the worm occupying the large
end of the egg, in which the air is
stored. 1t was double puzzle, he
said, as to how the worm got into the
egg, and, second, how it could have
coiled itself tightly enough to fit so
small space. The second problem DR..
sprague gave UP, but as to the first, |
ne said the hen that laid the egg had |
probably swallowed the germ of the
worm, which, when 1t developed, had |
been Enclosed in the shell of the egg.

Of exact observations relating to the
newly-discovered asteroid this side of
the planet Mars, This asteroid Is small
In size, being probably only a few
miles In diameter, but is a most re-
narkable object Although there are
about 400 asteroids in the swarm be-
tween Mars and Jupiter, thought to
be fragments Of planet which had
met with some mishap In the process

has ever been discovered this side of
Mars. If, as it is thought will prove to
be the case upon further investigation,
1t approaches at any point In its orbit
nearer to the earth than than the
nearest point In the orbit Of the planet
Venus, 1t is our nearest neighbor In |
the heavens with the single exception
Of the moon. If the theories now en-
