worked with the rapidity of that glance in which
he had himself lost One infnitesimal chance
for his life he had and SO fororn it. hopeless,
almost impossible of execution, that even he

gloom of death. STILL the outward calm of plains

over his ARM and with bearing as natural as if his
appearance there had been intentional, he strobe

The half leveled rifles dropped to rest the grass

grunts manifested the inward amaze of the redmen.
Their lean bronze faces were masks and sloe-blaCk
eyes, shining with the wild light of the untamed,

surned their thoughts.

Of the 18th Of October referred to

Reply Of the american commission
,,ers to the memorandum presented By
the Spanish Commissioners on No.
ven.ber Is, 1898.
The American Commissioners ha-
We examined the memorandum of the
Spanish Commissioners with delibe-
rate care and attention which they
have been accustomed to bestow u
pom all the representations which
those Commissioners have been plea
sed to submit touching the questions
before the conference.
They note, in the first place, that
the Spanish Commissioners disclaim
any intention by their paper Of the
Bird of:November to withdraw their
previous acceptance Of the American
articles on the-subject Of Cuba, Po1
to Rico and the other Spanish is
lands in the West Indies, and the
Island Of Guam in the Ladrones.
This disclaimer, in spite Of the
form in which it is expressed, the
American Commissioners would be
content simply to accept without
comment, were it not tor the fact
that it is accompanied with certain
observations on the so-called Cuban
debt that impose upon them the ne
cessity Of recurring to what they ha-
We previously said on that subject.
Inciting the Royal DEGREES Of
1885 and 1890, and the contents Of
the bonds issued hereunder, as So
mething with which the American
Commissioners were previously unac
quainted, the Spanish Commissioners
seem to have overlooked Or forgotten
the paper which the American Com
missioners presented on the 18th
Of October. In that paper the Ame-
rican. Commissioners expressly
mentioned and described the fnan-
cial measures of 1886 and 1890 and
the stipulations of the bonds there
by authorized. But they did more
than this. Being concerned with the
substance rather than with the
form Of the matter, they reviewed
viii some minuteness the history Of
the debt and the circumstances Of
its creation. They showed that it
was in reality contracted by the Spa
nish Government for national pur-
poses; that it's foundations were laid
