Thousands of yards in solid bolts OF
pretty new prints were placed on sale
yesterday. The newness comes in the
patterns and colors. Spots large and
small, pretty stripes and broken plaids
galore 1t would be scarcely possible
for any one not to be pleased from
this great selection. Price, 6Ac yard.

The criticism which has been offered

that had it done so at the first Drovo-

would speedily have collapsed, Is prob
ably correct in its conclusions, but II
ovelooks the law in the case. SAYS a
current dispatch from Manila: Gen
sral Otis asserts that he was instructed
from Washington not To assume the Of
fenstVe until Spain had ratified the
peace treaty. The theory is that all
territory outside of Manila is Spanish
territory and Spain is responsible for
all damages done to foreign property

takes at last the sensible position with
reference t. the senatorial deadlock

Legislature deserve some reciprocal ac-
acknowledgements from. the Republican
bolters of the stubborn loyalty they
have shown in holding their forces sol
idly together for George A. jerks, thus
ENABLING the Wanamaker minority to
block Quay's reelection. The Record

with becoming nTeekness by casting th-
Nnlted Republican strength of the leg
