1t is said that Spanish statesmen ex.
pect the United States will pay for all
the government property Spain leaves
behind in Cuba and Porto Rico, and also
that the Spanish Cuban bonds will be
considered. The claim is based upon
the surrender by negotiation, as they
say, when the fact is it was Spain that
sued for peace and was informed she
could have it on certain conditions, and
these were accepted.
Spain is to evacuate and renounCe call

rights in the island of CUBA and cede to

Col. John Jacob Astor has real estate
and personal property running up into
the scores of millions. His vast posses.
sions and business are mainly managed
by an agent, and he himself hardly
knows what he is worth. He has an in
come which he cannot spend, and when
this Spanish war broke out he raised
equipped and maintained battery at
his own expense and turned it over to
he government and at Manila it did
good service. And joining the army
himself he did gallant work at Santiago,
being in the thickest of the fray and
fighting bravely. Col. Astor recently
returned to Goods country" with dis
patches to his government and obtained
short leave of absence to rest and look
after his affairs. Reports now are that
Col. Astor thinks he is not paying a
proper share on his property, real and
personal, and he is Investigating to see
for himself how it is. His real estate is
estimated for assessment purposes at
s25, 100000 and assessed at go per cent
OF that sum, when it should, in his judg.
ment, pay great deal more than the
100000 collected on it last year, He
intends to demand that the assessment
be largely increased. 1t is also said he
intends to donate large amounts for
charitable and educational purposes,
preterring that to having it squabbled
over after he is dead.
