How to Pronounce "Cadiz."
Springfield Republican,

There are many queries as to the proper
pronunciation of Cadiz. If you are talking
with an American, just plain "Cadiz is
good enough, to rhyme with ladies'" like
Cadiz o., the metropolis of Harrison coun-
ty. But Spaniard will understand you bet
ter if you pronounce it Cahtheeth. giving
the first "th'' the sound of the same letters
in the and with the accent on the "Cah."
1t is absurd, of course. but it is way they
have. Cadiz. by the way. is the Oldest i'm
portant city in western Europe, the Gades
of the ancient world, and has endured with
out break from times of remote antiquity.

PORTO RICAN PICNIC ABANDONED

Washington, August 8-The Secretary
of War has stopped the despatch of further
reinforcements to Porto Rico.
General Miles reported by cable this
morning that the force at his command
was ample for the purposes of completing
the conquest of the island. This leaves
all of General Wade's provisional corps of
the western regiments still in the United
States.
There are six brigades under the COM
mand of General Wade. The first bri-
gade is composed of the First Rhode ISL
aud, Fourth Missouri and 22d New York !;
the second brigade of the First North
Carolina, First Alabama and First Ar
kansas; the third brigade of tho First
New Hampshire, First Vermont and
SIND Iowa; the fourth brigade of the
First New Jersey, First West Virginia
and Third Virginia; the fifth brigade of
the Second Texas, First Connecticut and
the First Delaware: the sixth brigade of
the First Maine, Third Tennessee and the
First Maryland.
None of the troops under General
Wade's command have yet started. The
department was not accurately informed
this afternoon as to which of Wilson's
troops would be held up under this new
order, but it is believed that the Fifth
Illinois, which has been four times dis
appointed by the revocation of orders to
the front is among those which have not
yet gone on board the transports.

effort to anticipate the wants of our sick
and wounded soldiers in Cuba without
waiting for acquisitions, but as we have
had comm unication by cable, the fault
does not rest with me If, owing to the
failure on the part of the chief surgeon
with General Shafter to ask for necessary
supplies, there has been a failure to meet
the req uirements of the sick.
"The hospital ship Relief, which ar
rived at Siboney July s, had on board
medicines for twenty regiments for six
months, calculating upon tho basis of the
supply taken and large supplies in
addition of the more important medicines,
hospital stores dressings, etc. If these
supplies were inadequate, there was
ample time to inform me Of the fact be-
fore the sailing of the Olivette, July 49,"

Election day dawns, and it is busy one

Now York and to every small boy who can
help build bonfire an election means q
holiday, but the policeman reJoices that 1t
comes but once year. For weeks previ-
GUS to election they, too, have been busy
in preparatory work. Every registration
has been verified by personal visit, and
in cases where fraud seems to have been
committed the evidcnce has been carefully
prepared and warrants issued. The lodg-
ing houses, cheap hotels and like places
have been under the most rigid suryeil-
lance for weeks in order to detect and pre-
vent colonization. No person can vote
from one of these places unless he is known
to have been registered there at least 30
days prior to election day and to have lived
in the county at least four months When
1t is remembered that 10, 1875 men were
registered in licensed lodging houses OF
New York on Oct. 2, 1897, and IA, 1876
moro in the cheap hotels and unlicensed
lodging houses, an idea can be obtained of
the amount Of this kind of work which
falls upon the police. It Is interesting to
note that Of this total Of 90, 521 floating

CHINA is GRATEFUL.
But Reports That No Aggression Has Been
Threatened.

London. August G. -Answering ques-
tion in the Honse of Commons today, the
parliamentary secretary for the foreign
Office, Mr.. George N. Curzon, said the
British minister at Pekin had reported
that the Chinese government, replying
to Great Britain's message saying she
would support China against any power
committing an act of aggression in China
because China had granted British sub
ject permission to aid or build railroad
or other public works, as announced in
the House of Commons on August /, had
expressed gratitude at the promise of
support and had asserted that no threat
of aggression had been made
MIR. Curzon also said that Baron Won
Bulow, the German minister for foreign
affairs had sent a memorandum to her
Maiesty's government saying Germany
had never claimed exclusive privileges in
China, had made no attempt to exclude
other nations from free competition in
the Shang- Tung peninsula, and had
merely informed China that II she desired
or required foreign assistance in the
Shang.Tung peninsula, she should first
offer the work to Germany.
