LONDON PRESS CoMMENT.
All Agree That Spain Cannot Pay a
Cash Indemnity.

London, July 27.-The London morn
ing papers agree that it will be impos-
sible for Spain 10 pay indemnity, and
that II is impossible that the United
States will demand money indemnity.
They all concede that the Spanish flag
has gone forever from Cuba and Porto
Rico.
The question of the future of the
Philippine Islands is universally adj
mitted as presenting grave difficulties,
owing to the impossibility of granting
independence. The general opinion is
that the United States will retain a
coaling station and have a reversion in
the islands.
The Daily News says: 1T would be
an act of extreme generosity to leave
Spain in the possession of the Philip
pines. but generosity is often the best
policy. If the United States should be
content with such a reward of its Ia
bors as would leave the Philippines to
Spain, 1t would set the world an exam
pie of conspicuous magnanimity'
The Daily Chronicle thinks that some
sort of international protectorate over
the Philippines should be arranged.
The Daily Mail says: we hope
President Mckinley will be moderate
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines
should be ample compensation without
indemnity.
The Times, in an editorial this morn
ing. applauding Spain for accepting the
inevitable. advises her to face the
facts of the political situation with the
same frank courage which secured the
respect of the Americans on the battle
field"
Discussing the probable terms of
peace, the Times says: The United
States will probably take Porto Rico
in lieu of a money indemnity, and it
would be best for the world at large if
America boldly undertook the burden
of government of Cuba and the Philip
pines, a strong, honest government
through American officials.
IF Spain is permitted to reassume
sovereignty over the Philippines she
will have to engage in a war of con-
quest, which might be attended with
serious consequences to American and
other international interests in the Pa
cific -

FORAKER'S VIEWS.
Thinks We Should Take Porto Rico
and the Philippines.

Washington, July Ex-senator Fora
ker of Ohio. the only Republican MEM
Der of the foreign relations committee
in the city, said tonight that while he
was very glad to see that the end of
the war was in sight, he did not wish
to take any position which would ap-
pear to be forestailing the action of
the administration. The treaty of peace.
when concluded, he said, would be sub
mitted to the senate. 1t was his opin-
ion that whatever terms were made,
the reasons for them would be such as
to commend them to the judgment Of
the senate, and they would be agreed
to, especially as hostilities would have
ended. Senator Foraker said:
Il do not think we should give up
any territory of which we have taken
possession. We should retain Porto
Rico and the Philippines and give to
Cuba Independent government and
maintain such relations with the peo-
pie as would ultimately bring about
the annexation of the island to the
United States by the desire of the peo-
pie themselves, as in the case of Ha-
waii. The independence of the people
of Cuba is due to them for the splendid
fight they have made for three years
against Spain. They have made their
independence possible"
Senator Foraker said he did not see
how it was possible to turn the Philip
pine islands back to Spain.

THE PoPES "FEELER."
Cover Maximum Concessions That
Spain Is Willing to Make.

Washington, July 26.-The reported
statement from the vatican of what
purports to be terms of peace accept
able to both the United States and
Spain, is set down here as only one of
the many ''feelers" that have been
thrown out within the past ten weeks.
probably TO test public feeling in the
United States primarily, and second
arily to break slowly to The masses of
the Spanish peopic the retaliation of
their complete defeat, something of
which they are not aware, because of
the superhuman efforts put forth by
the Spanish government to suppress
or pervert the news of actual events.
1t is suspected that the terms named,
the annexation to the United States of
Cuba and Porto Rico and the relin-
punishment of the Philippines, repre-
sent what may be now looked upon as
the maximum concessions that Spain is
willing to make.
From this point of view the state
ment is not discouraging. though, of
course. it must be realized that the
Spanish minimum is very far below the
American minimum. Still there must
be some starting point for negotiations
that will in the end lead up to peace.
and therefore the publication of these |
various "feelers" is not deprecated by
our government, though so far it can
be positively asserted they have no
basis of fact, at least on this side of
the Atlantic

Effect of Naval Bombardment of
City of Santiago.

Guantanamo. July 26.-An order Just
issued regarding the navy's lombard
ment Of Santiago de Cuba says:
Twelve houses were completely
wrecked inside. and one house was
burned. Sixteen S-inch shells struck
within three blocks of the Gale de Mar
ian.
These excavated the ground to a
depth of about four feet. and about ten
feet in length. The street was macad-
amized. 1t is judged from the fact
that many of them struck near the
waters edge that a number OF shells
must have gone into the bay
Army officers have stated that 80 or
40 went beyond the northern edge of
the bay into the Spanish lines
"A dozen or more of the shells had

had been simply blown out. In one

Guantanamo Bay, Santiago de Cuba,
July 26.-The Prairie arrived here from
Nipe bay last evening and reported all
quiet
The Spaniards last night sunk the
Spanish gunboat Sandoval, which has
been lying near Caimenera. This is
looked upon as being a gross breach
of the terms of surrender, which the
Spaniards then had knowledge of, es-
pecially considering the fact that food
has been sent by the United States
navy into Caimenera.
First Sergeant of Marines Kinnie of
the New York went north yesterday
evening on the Texas to get his COM
mission as second lieutenant of ma
rines. This is almost the only case of
such promotion on record in this
branch of the service.
1t is difficult to see how the large
party of Spanish troops at Holguin can
fail to surrender very soon, although
reinforced by the Spanish forces from
Gibrara- Holguin is one of the COM
handing points in eastern Cuba, and
the surrender of its garrison will be an
important event i'll the war. News
from there is expected shortly, and
upon it will depend some of the plans
of our commanders.

mand, except those engaged in the
Porto Rico expedition. depend upon the
decision of the authorities at Wash
ington, and the impression is growing
among the naval officers of high rank
in these waters that it is not advisable
to send a fleet to Spain without pre-
viously enabling the ships to undergo
thorough preparation, including going
into dry dock in several cases.

tion of the disposition of the troops I'M
der General Shafter az Santiago was
not yet settled. 1t is certain, however,
that there viii be no general move
ment from Santiago until after the
Spanish prisoners have been removed.
and there is some defiaite military
progress in Porto Rico. The health
conditions of the army at Santiago will
have considerable to do with the move
ment of those troops. The war depart
ment is taking steps for the establish
ment OF reserve camps in the Uaited
States. Military medical authorities
are confident of their ability to handle

troops in eastern Cuba
When that has been accomplished, it
is more than probable that the majority
of the troops there may be returned to
the United States and given a short
holiday prior to the institution of The
campaign against Havana, and IL is
not improbable that some of the regi-
ments which are entirely free from
disease may be allowed to come to the

peculiar to China was smoked N thcse
pipes which has since. through the in

by tobacco.
The pipe was also used in England
long before 1856, by Jean Moot, from
whom tobacco received its botanical
name of nicOtina. At the same time It
was introduced into England by the
cOlonists from Virginia Today all ns-
lions and tribes, whether civilized or
savage, are smokers of tobacco. It is
estimated that about fifty-ive hundceI
millions of pounds are used annuaFy
Undoubtedly the most ancient race
of smokers of WHOM we have any
knowledge is the aboriginal inhabitants
of North America. At the time of their
first contact with white men shey

This curious mineral is found in pits

prevalent idea that when dug from the
