SPAIN FORECASTS DEFEAT.
VIEWS OF FOREMOST SPANISH
MILITARY WRITER'S.
The Mother Country viii Lose Her
Colonies, but VIII Herself Remain
Advantage With America.

Senior Genaro Alas, who is consider
ed in Spain to be the first Spanish
military writer, published the follow
ing article in La Epoca of Madrid on
March 18th about the results of a war
between his country and the United
States:
will it be duel in French style,
or until the first blood is shed? In
my opinion neither one nor the 9TH
er. If we are defeated quickly we
shall lose Cuba and probably also Por-
to Rico, and it is very likely that we
shall have stronger revolt in the
Philippines and serioues troubles at
home.
But, suppose at the beginning of
the war we sink the whole Yankee
fleet and even lombard with success
two or three Yankee ports. VIII it
all end there? Oh. no. The Ameri-
cans will not stand it, and the nation
that from 1861 to 1865 put in arms
more than 100000 soldiers, raised
raised powerful fleets, spent $1,000
100000 and lost nearly the same sum,
will make such efforts then that, in
spite of all my respect for Spanish
patriotism, | cannot believe that
Spain will be able to stand against
it.
"If there are those who believe in
intervention by European powers in
favor, | do not.
"A fight to the death it will not
be either, because the Americans con-
not conquer us with so many miles of
ocean between the two countries. We
na1Aniau lint Snni,, xx-i11
remain. Probably the loss, though
Immediately disastrous, would be a
benefit to our sons.
Now, can any man of sense be-
lieve that we can do to the United
States what the Americans cannot do
to us? Is it not nonsensical dream
to think of a conquest of American
territory? | am not doubling the cour-
age of the Spaniards, but l believe
that all the nations of Europe togeth-
er are not strong enough to sever a
foot of land from the United States.
I'm brief the United States VIII
not come to conquer us here, neither
shall we go to conquer them there.
The whole war will be reduced to
this: The Yankees will provide the
insurgents with arms and ammuni-
ton, blockade the ports of Cuba, and
starve to death our army there. that
subsists now exclusively on imported
food.
what will be the role of our navy?
To break the blockade in order to
provision our army and in order to
get coal for itself: because | suppose
that our ships will not come back to
coal in Spain.
''That will be all. At the start the
Yankees may destroy our whole navy
or we may destroy theirs, but in the
long run they will get the ADVANTAGE.
All other things will be mere episodes
of the war. The privateers on either
side will amount to nothing in decid-
ing where victory shall rest"

EXPERTS IN COOKING.

Some names are so we'll known In the history
OF improved cookery in this country that they
need only to be mentioned to be recognized by
everybody as expert authorities. What DO they
say about the important question or the pesl
fuel for cooking? Miss Juliet Corson wrote,
After an experience of a quarter OF century
in cookery by the use of wood, charcoal. hard
and sof, coal. naphtha. gasoline. natural ana
manufactured gas ! emphatically give my voice
In favor Of cooking by gas" Mrs. Christian
Terhune Herrick says Cookery by gas has so
many advantages 90 those who have studied
household economics that ii seems almost un-
necessary at this late day to say anything in Its
favor" Mrs Mary J. Lincoln explains how
many OF the abomnaticns OF the older cookery
have been done away with since the introduc-
ton of gas ranges. where the heat OF the oven
may be easily regulated and maintained says
Mrs Sarah T. Rorer; so fully do believe In
gas stoves that even In the midst OF a coal re-
gion. where I was directing the furnishing OF a
kitchen. had gas range only put In position
She also says that gas Is "the rational thing to
use for cooking" and that "even the ordinary
cook when once taught to use it Will never again
be satisfied with the use of coal.

the opiflon of the Court in the case of a. =. S.
Stewart agains, X X Hayden receiver of the
CAPITAL National Bank of Lincoln City. Neb. The
case involved the question Of the liability OF a
shareholder In a failed National bank In cases In
which the shareholder has disposed OF his holding

the falling condition OF the In this in
stance the bank went into the hands OF receiver
January g. 1893. Stewart had been director Of
the bank for eight years up to 1892. and was the
owner of $50 shares of Its stock on December l6.

certain real from A. T. Gruetler ana others
agreeing to transfer his bank stock In payment
for this property. The transfer was made January
g. 1Ssa twenty days before the bank failure was
announced. In making his assessment against the
shareholders the receiver OF the bank sought to In
clude Stewart in the list Of those liable to de-
positors. the ground that Stewart was cognlzant
OF the condition OF the bank when he disposed or
his stock The trial court accepted this view OF
the case as did the Circuit Court of Appeals
Eighth Circuit and the Supreme Court to-day
affirmed the opinion Of the latter court.
In rendering the opinion Justice Harlan said II
was evident that Stewart knew OK the banks con-
dillon ana OF the speculaticns in which ts presi-
dent was engaged. and added that 1t was not In
tended that shareholder should escape responsi-
bility in such a case. where hts only intention or

Clearly fraud.
Justice Gray announced the opinion Of the Court
in the case Of William Holder. plaintiff In error
against Aultman, Miller & Co, from the Circuit
Court for the Eastern District OF Michigan. The
case involved the validity OF a contract made for
the sale Of agricultural implements and brought
into question n Michigan State law imposing a
tax on contracts made by non-resfdents for the
sale Of merchandise In that State The constitu-
tOnal question OF interference with commerce be-
tween the States raised In presenting the case
bur the Court did not take this point into consider
alton In rendering its judgment. basng its decision
upon the point that the contract on which the sale
in this instance made perfected In Ohio

made outside the limits of the State are valid re-
