COST OF THE WAR TO SPAIN.
Enormous Expenses Aside From the
Loss of Ships and Colonies.

Enormous Expenses Aside From the
Loss of Ships and Colonies.
Aside from the loss of her colonies and
the ships destroyed in battle, the war
has cost Spain about 1914. $4,000.
Information to this effect has been re-
ceived at the Navy Department from the
naval attaches of this Government
abroad. Including the cost of prepara-
ton in anticipation of the war begun by
Spain in May, 1895. these sums have been
raised and expended:
From the sale of 300 9I4 Cuban n ,tes s25 2i2 255
From the sale of 60,000 Cuban notes OF
1886 ............................ 5,16iesi

These sums do not include debts for

possession of the department, all the
money obtained has been expended on
expeditions sent to the colonies, whose
total amounted to 1S0431 soldiers. 6,222 Of
ficers and about 700 generals. OF the mil
lions expended only S., 600, 900 was spent
by the Spanish government to increase
its naval force. Ell Mundo of Spain
commenting upon this small appropria-
ton for the navy when such a large sum
was expended for the army, points out
that this sum was sufficient 10 have
bought and maintained battleship of
| l0.000 tons. with the entire apppropria-
| tion, it continues, "sixty-six battleships
could have been secured.
According to the reports received here
it is evident that Spain deeply deplores
her failure to add largo number of ships
to her navy instead of applying a. least
half of the appropriation made by the
Cortes to the maintenance of the army.
1t is appreciated by the Madrid govern
ment that In view of the condition of her
treasury, and the further fact that her
naval force is greatly inferior it would
be useless to try to continue the struggle,
/ especially as there is no nation of Europe
willing to support her in case she should
again resort 10 the arbitrament of arms.
I Because of this tho authorities have no
/ reason TO believe there will be any serious
hitch in the negotiations of the peace
commission, and, while they expect the
/ Spaniards will do everything possible to
! delay the completion of the treaty, be-
| lieviug they may bring about complica-
/ tions advantageous To their government,
/ the American representatives will be in
/ a position at any time TO bring them to
I terms by a simple threat to withdraw.

Germany Friendly

WASHINGTON. July 2.-Further In
quires by the Associated Press today in
Official quarters as to the alleged complica-
lions between the United States and Ger
many in the Philippines failed to elicit
anything that might serve as a foundation
for the reports Of such complications.
On the contrary, 1t is learned that there
have been recent communications between
the two governments Of a decidedly friend
ly nature, and at no time since the war be-
gan has there been greater reason than now
existing for confidence in Germany's neu-
trality in the war between the United
States and Spain. Reports of misunder-
standings In the Philippines or elsewhere
should not be too readily assumed as a
basis of inference of national unfriendli-
ness. Indeed, 1t 10 believed to be the desire,
as It Is also the interest Of both govern
ments that the relations of traditional
friendship between them should continue
unbroken.

CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT
Assistant Secretary Howell Issues a
New Ruling

New Ruling
WASHINGTON, July 2O.--Assistant Sec
rotary Howell of the Treasury Department
made a ruling in regard to the admission
into the United States Of Chinese persons
which is more comprehensive in its re-
strictions than any hitherto made since
the passage of the Chinese Exclusion act.
This action was in accordance with an
opinion Of the Attorney-General, who holds
in effect that the exclusion applies to all
classes of Chinese persons other than those
specifically named in the act. The only
exceptions therefore are: officials, teach
ers, students, merchants or travellers for
curiosity or pleasure. It is estimated that
the number of persons hitherto admitted
but hereafter excluded will aggregate
several thousand a year. The following
letter of instructions based upon the At
torney-General's opinion has been sent to
the Collector of Customs at San Francisco:
WASHINGTON, July 20, 1893.
Collector Of Customs, San Francisco
Sir-Referring to your communication OF
the 18th ultimo in relation to the appeal
from your decision rejecting the applica-
ton Of Wong Yook Foo. Chinese person
seeking admission to this country, and con-
flrmlng the telegram sent to you on the
10th instant, you are informed that in an
opinion, dated the 10Th instant, the Honor
able the Attorney-General, holds that
Chinese persons known as TRADERS" should
not be allowed to land in this country, even
though they submit the certificate pre-
scribed by the act approved July 9Th, 1884,
relating to the admission Of Chinese.
