Gen. Weyler.

The return of Gen. Valeriano Wey-
Ter to notice through his appoint
ment as president OF the central gen.
eral staff OF the Spanish army re-
wives memories of the days in Cuba
twenty years ago on the eve of the
war between Spain and the United
States. Gen. Weyler has not lacked
for honors in Spain since his recall
from Cuba, which was believed to
have been inspired by desire to pla-
cate the United States, then looking
over the situation in the islands with
a view of possible Intervention. He
was given various important assign
ments, and now he reaches virtually
the supreme military position in
Spain. To him will fall the task of
a reorganization of the Spanish mill
tary system. Gen. Weyler is now in
his seventy-seventh year, an age at
which all American army officers are
on the retired list.
