Loxdon, Jan. 1. The Spectator epi
tomizes the reviews of the passing year,
declaring that ' the dominant fact of
1808 has been the rise in the position of
the English-speaking people" It des
cribes how Europe has been amazed and
irritated by the expansion of America,
though Europe has not dared to Inter
fere. But, the Spectator says, "the Powers
are apprehensive that the change may
compel a defensive coalition of the mili
tary Powers of Eur po. It also quotes
one periodical as saying that the waves
of European contempt for Great brltaln
have bten succeeded by respect, com
pelled by the s'iffenlng foreign policy of
the Eng llah-wpeeking races."

to the United States, died at the embassy
here at 4 10 o'clock this morning. On
Wednesday but an operation tor appen
dicitis waa preformed upon the ambassa
dor, and although the operation waa en
tirely miccessful, tha resulting shock
proved greater than he could bear. Up
to 1.90 o'clock this morning, however, it
was thoogbt be was in a fair way to re
cover, bat at that time a high fever set
ia and be sank rapidly until his death.
About his bedside were his sister, Mrs
Oarcia, and his aunt, tha secretaries and
tuer attaches of the embassy, his physi
cians and ex-Secretary and Mra. John W.
curaed some months ago, waa a great
shock to the ambassador, and oa his re
turn from Mexico, whither be had taken
her remains for interment, his friends
remarked that he was greatly broken and
showed unmistakable igne of tailing
health. While in Mexico at that time i.r.
Romero was stricken with fever, and al
though he was soon able to return to the
United States, he never fuU regained his
health.

Wasuinotox, December SI The an
nouncement of Senator Perkins, who is
violently opposed to the ratification of
the treaty of peace, that be will vote for
its ratification, if Instructed by the Cali
fornia legislature to do so, is taken by
many to mean that the Senator has
doubts as to whether he is correctly rep
resenting the sentiment of i is State in
opposing the treaty, just as many regard
Senior Hoar's aiatenieut that he will
ic l.ir ratification, if the treaty is
iniemtcd by a class that will prevent the
I'lnlippines ever becoming a State in the
Cui' ii, as au adroit move to get himself
back in llneviili the sentiment of his
State. The treaty will go to the Senate
as soon as Congress reassembles and
t hen is nothing in flight to indicate that
il will lie amended before being ratified,
although it is ceitain that five or six
Senator aic preparing to make bitter
speeches against the treaty and the
u hole policy of expansion. The niotU of
the anti-expansionist Senators will vote
to ratify the treaty, because tliev regard
it as an international matter which
should be settled at once, and which has
nothing to do with expansion, which
they regard ns a domestic mstter to be
settled among ourselves.

Washington, Dec. 30. Asa result of
the controversy between Oeneral Miles
and General Eagan concerning the qual
ity of the beef supplied the army, and on
the written request of General Eagan,
the War Department tonight issued a
special order for the assembling of a
b )rd of officers in Washington on next
Tuesday at 10 A. M. to inquire into the
general subject of the quality of the
beef supplies, and particularly as to the
responsibility for the loss of 800,000
pounds of refrigerated beef sent to Porto
Rico when the expedition tinder General
Miles was there.
The 300,000 pounds of beef referred to
were shipped from Newport News to
Porto Rico about the time that word
came from General Miles that be had
supplied himself with fresh beef taken
on the island. The refrigerated beef
made the trip to Porto Rico and back,
but by the time it reached Montauk Point
it Is understood to have been spoiled,
owing to the delay and consequent lack
of refrigerating material.
These arj dangerous times for the
health. Croup, colds and throat troubles
loud rapidly to Consumption. A bottle
of One Minute Cough Cure used at the
right time will preserve life, health and
a large amount of. money. Pleasant to

There is some question as to whether

The New Year came in on a bitter cold

Members of the legislature began
coming in today and by tomorrow night
there will be almost all of luem here,
especially the Democrats, who tomorrow
night will elect in caucus all legislative
officers.
Capt. Day has issued an imperative
order that all negro guards over convicts

RATIFICATION TREATY.

Washington, January 2 The ex
tremely critical condition of affairs in
the Philippines will doubtless hasten the
ratification of the treatv of peace by the
Senate. This government caunot take
the steps necessary to bring Agulnaldo
and his Ignorant followers to their senses
until the treaty has been ratified.
The President is using all his influence
on Senators to hasten action on the
treaty, which will go to the Senate the
first thing after the reassembling of
Congress. Under ordinary circumstances
the committee on Foreigu Relations
would keep the treaty two or three
weeks before reporting it back lo the
Senate, but the President hopes to have
It reported back to the Senate inside of
two days and to hare it voted upon
Inside of two weeks.
More than seventy Senators have
promised to vote to ratify the treaty, so
that il is only a question of getting it to
a vote. If the opponents of the treaty
will be content to state their objections
In short speeches and not do any talking
against time, the President's wishes can
be met, but the rules of the Senate pro
viding for unlimited debate will make II
easy for them to delay the treaty, if they
are so disposed and are not afraid of
arousing public enmity thereby.
