Mar 20: The report Of the arri-
val of CerveraS fleet at Santiago

May 20: The time allowed for
the companies at Columbia to

Editors to The Front.

A gentleman called the atten-
tion of a reporter for The News
Courier lG<the following editorial
in the AshvilIe Citizen Monday:
"One editor has gone to the
frOnt-count him; one--and per-
laps there are more to follow. n.
G. Gonzales, of the Columbia
State, is now with Gen. Nunez,
the Cuban officer, and both eX-
pect to be in at the death Of Ha-
vana. Mr.. Gonzales Will certainly
Oe a success in the field if he is as
good a fighter as he has been
editor. If We mistake not, his
father was a notable figure IN the
Cuban Ten Years War.
"That is correct so far as il
goes" he said, "but there are
Others" In The first place two OF
Mr.. Gonzales's brothers are in the
army, and South Carolina has
furnished two editors, Editor
Louis j Bristow, of the KingStree
Record, and editor Parrot of the
Horny Republic. Both are good
men.

What Gherardi and Sickles Think
About the Duration of the War.

What Gherard and Sickles Think
About the Duration of the War.
Widely dIssimilar views as to
the wars probable duration are
expressed by Admiral Bancroft
Gherardi and Gen. Daniel E Sick
les. The former does not look
for a cessation of hoslilities IN less
than three years. ut is a great
mistake" he told a recent inter
viewer, Ito suppose that the
Spanish are not fighters. They
have some very good ships. Our
own are much better handied than
it is possible for them TO handle
theirs, but still they know how to
fight their vessels, and we lack
tremendously in the line oftorpe-
do boat destroyerS, Of which Spain
has several excellent examples.
OF course, the Admiral has no
doubts as to the ultimate result.
1--WE were not prepared for such a
condition of affairs as now exists,
he said, "but with our resources
we can remedy the defects in our
navy in a remarkably short space
of time" The ex-minister to
Spain fixed a year as The limit OF
the conflict, ahd he saw but ore
END to it. The truth about sea
power" he declared in eXplana-
ton of his opinion, "is that you
must be able not only to build
ships and 10 make big gunS-any-
one can do that-but you must
fight your ships, and there are
only two Powers in the world to-
day that can win on the water
England and America" Nhen
questioned as to the chance that
Cuba will some day become a.
part of the United States, Gen.
Sickles evaded the point with
some ingenuity, and propounded
Il decidedly curious theory as TO
why we joined to our declaration
of war an explicit disavowal Of
the intention to rnneX the island.
Europe" he declared, ''took this
to mean desire 10 placate her;
it was, in reality, only for the ra
assurance of our own people,
whose policy has been wholly op
posed TO colonial conquest"
There is enough in that view OF
the case to make it worth. the
careful consideration of our Con
tinental enemies and perhaps to
decrease tneir estimate of our
regard for their olinons.--New

The questions asked are such as would have to be submitted to an attorney in good standing for his opinion, but this depart ment finds that a patent vests the patentee with the common right of ownership from the center of the earth upward to the sky, and the additional right to follow a vein or lode upon its dip within his side lines under the sur face of adjoining territory United States Revised Statutes, section 2322; Iron Go. vs. Elgin Co.,, 11S U. S., 21S; provided he has the apex or lode within his claim and subject to the same right in behalf of others similarly situated. In other words, the patentee mas no greater rights, privileges or immunitieS than had a locator on the question of extra lateral rights. In either event he may invade other territory or have his own territory invaded when the circumstances warrant whether both are held by loca- tion or patent, or one is patented and the other is held by location, and the relative dates of patents or notices of To- cation are immaterial Colorado Central vs. Turck, 30 Federal Reports, SSS). But lands of an adjoining proprietor who holds an elder title under patent for agricultural lands (Amador vs. Spring Hill, S6, F. R., 66S). Nor where the claim is in the form of an isosceleS triangle can the lode or vein be followed through the side lines (Montana vs. Clark 42, F. R., 626)."

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Jan. 5.-wheat started easy at about 5.c under the closing figures of the day before May opened at from s1c to sllsc and July from s2%c to S5c. It acted irregularly within a narrow compass for hour. May playing during that time between 919sc and elc. The slightly easier feeling with which trading commenced was partly due to crop report of Thoman that made the acreage planted with winter Wheat IA per cent larger than the area harvested last season; also re- ported the condition now S7 against S4.1 De- cember l last and estimated the quantity in farmers hands at 240, .0o0 bushels. or 4lSl per cent of last years crop. and that there is available for export in the next six months 100 OOO GOO bushels. It also a matter of some disappointment to the bulls that the Ninneapolis and Duluth receipts were not re- duced more materially than shown by 35S carloads at the two places to-day, as against Al a week ago and 120 carloads the corre- spending day of last year Chicago made some amends, however, only Z6 cars being returned as against estimates made the day before for 75 and compared with lS5 the similar day of last week and S7 a year ago Liverpool was about 1sd lower to begin with and dropped another 1sd later in the day.
 The first thing the bulls got any additional comfort from was the sale by Armour & Co. of 5000 bushels of No. spring Wheat for ex- port at once by rail hence to the seaboard, and rumored sale of e further g. 900 bushels. The price said to be 41sc below the May price. New York confirmed the taking for ex- port yesterday of S4 boatloads-49s. 00O bushels there and 176. 900 bushels outports The export ciearances from Atlantic ports were again liberal. amounting in Wheat and Flour to 50o,o00 bushels. That was a sustaining fac tor, but when about two hours of the session had gone and the foreign markets were found to have closed weak, confidence began to de- sert the early buyers and they became more anxious to avoid a loss during the following half hour than they had been before to secure a profit. Liverpool closed 9sd lower for the day, Paris at decline of from 10 centimes to 10 centimes in Flour and 10 centimes in Wheat while Antwerp, In addition to a drop of l2I1 centimes for red American the day before re- ported further decline of a like extent for both red winter and white Californian.

EASTERN MARKETS.
NEw YoRK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK. Jan. 5.-The stock market got away from the bears in the later dealings to- day and closed buoyant and very active. in part because of the rush of the shorts to cover. Some of the specialties were strong throughout the day, but there was a period in the early session when the reactionists gained control some of the Southern and Southeastern stocks being sold down over a point. The bears also attempted to utilize the introduction at Albany of bills directed against combines of capital, but the effect Of these bills was confined to Consolidated Gas. which fell over a point Some heaviness early was manifested also in other prominent railroad stocks which may have been due to sympathy with the depres- sion in the same stocks in London and on European exchanges. This was notably the case with the New York Central stocks and Northern Pacific preferred. The forced cover ing or shorts and the later buoyancv of tha market brought the extreme advances in some Of the most prominent stocks to nearly 2 noint e or over, and net gains of point or over are very frequent throughout the list The failure Of the bears to effect declines encouraged az gressiveness in the bulls There was a grow ing feeling also that recent utterances by rail- way ofnciais pointing to poor returns on ac- count of low rates and rate-cuttfng were moi fully warranted and were designed to infu- ence pubic opinion and the action of Con gress. The days reports of railroad earnings came to re-enforce this view
 Officially the Union Pacific reorganfzaffon committee presented its check to the Assistant United States Treasurer for s. 800 o0O which Is the final payment in the Union Pacific sale The consummation of this deal, which has been disturbing factor in the money market for month and the absence of furry on ac- count of il in the money market to-day were viewed with relief by Wall street. The future ease of the money market now seems assured so far as Government operations are concerned
 This encouraging combination of circum- stances served to put an end to the bear cam paign to-day and turned the tide in favor of the bulls. though the days business was stfII largely confined to the professional trading ele- ment.
 The bond market took on an increased &C., tivity and strength in sympathy with stocks. and prices were generally higher. Total sales s2S50Oo0- United States new fours were t higher bid, the lives registered B higher and the old fours registered and the lives coupon E higher.
