Hooks Like War.

Things have assumed very war-like
aspect in this country during the past
week.
Unofhcially, Spain demanded the re-
cali oGCounsel General Lee from TIa-
vana; President Mckinley declined to
accede to the request, and Immediately
asked congress for an appropriation OF
$5O,OO0.0 900 for national defense. and
both branches Of congress voted the
money without one dissenting vote.
While it is. not generally believed
that there will be war, the Washington
government is making every prepara-
tion for 1t.

The condition of the men, physically,

The prisoners are to be return ed to
Spain at the expense Of the Spanish
governments. That was the condition
upon which our governments agreed to
release them without parole or other
restrictions. Admiral Cervera was
charged by his government with the
arrangements for the transportation Of
the prisoners. They are all t. go to.

sumed that Captain Eulate has gone to

FERNANDlNA, Fla, Sept. Z. The

II is not only likely but al
moss absolutely certain that an
overwhelming majority Of the
respectable Cuban population
has come swiftly round to the
conviction that the permanent
peace and prosperity of the
island can only be assured by
annexation to the United
States. a popular vote on
that proposition would without
doubt show an immense major
ity in its favor, the former pro-
Spanish party recognizing in it
its only protection against the
insurgents, who are quite as
cruel and savage as their OPP

they can be sent away. The Thirty.
