FOOD PLEN TY IN CUBA.

Madrid, June $3.50 p. In.--The
debate in the chamber with reference to
the situation in the Philippines has bean
Indefinitely postponed,
A Spaniard from Cuba who has re-
turned here since the blockade of certain
ports of the island, said today he had
heard that plenty of food had been re-
ceived in Cuba, through the blockade
runners, chiefly English, under the very
noses OF the Amrican ships at various
points along the coast, from which 1t was
carted to the railway, thus reaching Ha-
vana. 49,
The Spaniard assert also that there is
sufficient food in the island for the next
eight months, that the greatest enthu-
siasm prevails among the Speniards there
and that all the population is under
arms.
Private dispatches from Cuba say that
the rainy season has begun and that the
insurgents do not dare to attack Santiago
de Cuba.

FEW PLAIN FACTS
London Times Tells Truth
About Our Army.

London, June 4.--The Times publishes
this morning two.column letter from
an American correspondent dated Wash
ington May 90, in which the writer says:
''Let us publish a bit of disagreeable
truth, as it will do us no harm in the
long run, much as it may excite anger
for the moment. Although America
must have known year ago that war
was inevitable, her army is not fit to
move. 1t is much like that of France
Immediately before the war of 1870. With
this difference, that the American troops
have confidence in their immediate su.
periors. -
The writer continues with serious in
dictment of the ''Terrible conditions
and slack of organization at Camp
Tampa, which. he says, is largely due
to red .tapeism at Washington or to that
military appepdage named the staff. !"
He comments on the fact that sin a
hot and pestiferous Ultimate men are COM
PEELED to wear winteG-clothing, eat Wirli
ter rations, fat pork and beans, withsno
fruit or vegetablesStps cool their super
heated blood, whilas carloads Of fresh
fruits and vegetables are going north
to the New York and Chicago markets.
He declares that from drummer boy to
colonel the army is Of excellent materi-
al" and says he would not know where
to seek Drawer or more intelligent officers,
but, ga painfully large number of Off
GERS have been given commissions for
purely political reasons and they COM
mand but little respect at the hands of
their men.
While the Spanish army, in his opin-
ion, formidable lighting machine, he
doubts, whether 10000 American troops
could now be sent to Cuba in proper
condition and he asserts that "no
machinery exists whereby such an army
could operate as a united single COM
mand.
He goes on to say, "The American
press, with rare exceptions, bushes up
the seamy side of the war, partly from
ignorance and partly from deliberate
purpose. The class of men sent to the
front to report military operations are the
same as would be sent to investigate
divorce scandal or a negro lynching.
"While strong sense of military dis
cipline and professional secrecy keeps
the mouths of the soldiers shut, mem

and, dwelling, as his manner was, upon
the immensely of the moral responsibility
which would be borne by the citizens of
the United States. The passage is SO, re-
markable that venture to quote it as the
one paramount question: to use his
own phrase, which, even from his bier,
Mr.. Gladstone would address to the
American public Speaking of the spec
tacle which America offered to the world,
Mr. Gladstone said
"There is union of territory, popula-
ton, power passing beyond all experience
Together with and behind these vast de-
velopments there will come correspond

to be. How will the majestic figure
about to become the largest and most
powerful on the stage of the world make

Mr.. Gladstone had then been sixty years
in public life. l ventured to ask him
whether he was satisfied with the net
result. His reply was emphatic: In
political affairs l think our progress has
been almost wholly good. In free trade.
for instance, it has been entirely good.
look upon that with the most entire COM
placency. Butt" he went on, with his
habitual humility, latter all. it was
comparatively easy work. All we had to
do was to undo. With "a few exceptions
we solved all our difficulties by the very
simple process of emancipation, or remov-
ing restrictions, of allowing natural
forces free play. The great work of the
last half century has been that of eman-
cipation. We have been emancipating

juniors come to face the other problem
of constructive legislation they win find
it much more difficult
On another subject, upon which the
New York Journal has often commented,
the influence of corporate wealth, Mr..
Gladstone spoke with decision:
They speak sometimes he said, "of

with the greed of the monopolist. The
greedy competitor at least shares his
gains with the public, but the greed of

= Good spurseon Story.

Here is a story about Sturgeon. He
once passed a stonemason who, after
each stroke of his hammer. cursed and
swore. Mr.. SpurGeon laid his hand en-
his shoulder and, looking kindly at him,
said: You are an adept at swearing.
Can you also pray?''
With another oath ne replied, Not
very likely
Holding up shillipgs Mr.. Sturgeon
said if he would promise never to pray
he would give him that.
''That is easily earned,' said tho
man, with a fresh oath, and put it III
his pocket When Sturgeon left, the
man began to feel little queer. When
he went home, his wife asked him what
allied him, and he told her. cit is Ju-
das' money!" said the man, and on a
sudden impulse he threw it into the
fire. The wife found it and took it out
and discovered who had given it to him.
The man took it back to Sturgeon, who
conversed long with him, warning him,
and at length was the means of saving
him. He became an attached member
