New York, July 9. The
Clide steamer Delaware was
burned oil Cedar Creek New
Jersey this morning. Passengers
and crew were rescued by the
l.ife Saving crew. The Dela
ware sailed fcr Charleston yester
day an 1 carried fifty passengers
and a crew of twenty. Flames
which probably had been smoul
dering in the hold sometime
broke out at ten o'clock Crew
fought stubbornly but were 1111
able to subdue the fire. Captain
Ingram steered the steamer for
shore and although passengers
were greatly excited, all were
safely placed in boats and on
life rafts.
Iater Passengers and crew
of the Delaware have reached
here. All praise the splendid
discipline on board. All men
were at their posts and their ex

With the close of the present
war there will come up for con
sideration the question of in
demnity, When Spain will find
herself compelled to dance
to the music of whatever
tune Uncle Sam will see fit to
play at that time. While it is
yet rather early to discuss this
matter, It is pertinent to gather
from the experience of other na
tions such light as will be of
service to us waeu the question
comes up.
Going back to the war be
tween China and Great Urittain
in 1 840, the latter country com
pelled the former to pay into its(
treasury, by way of indemnity
for losses incurred, the sum of
$35,000,000. Most of this was
subsequently paid out to British
merchants for individual prop
erty destroyed by China.
On the authority of some an
onymous writer in the Chicago
News who seems too well posted
Oil the subject, the largest in
demnity ever exacted by one na
tion of another was exacted by
Truss ia of France in 1 87 1 , as the
result of the disastrous France
Prussian war. In addition to
tlie surrender of Alsace and
Lorraine, France was required
to pay the enormous sum of
$ 1 ,oc 0,000.000 wdiich she event
inilly succeeded in doing, al
though it seemed to be impossi
ble at the time.
As the fesult of the war be
tween Prussia and Austria,
which occurred in 1S66, Prussia
was assessed the immense sum
of $45,000,000, regardless of the
fact that the war lasted only one
mouth. She was also compel-

Ia the recent wai between
China and Japan, the former
country incut red obligations to
the latter to the extent of S1S5 4

islands of Formosa and Pesca
dores. As the result of the war be

States in 1848, the latter coun
try compelled her to give up what
now comprises Utah, California,
Nevada, Arizona and Nev Mex
ico, but undertook therefor the
sum of $ 1 5.000,000, thus iguor
ing all former precedents.
Such magnanimity will not
be observed iu settling scores
with Spain. Secretary Alger
estimates that the cost of the
war will aggregate $600,000,000,
in which event it will not be
excessive to insist upon the con
cession of both the Phillipints

Some time before there was

with Spain, Couimodore
remarked to a
tlemen, whom he met iu a club
in New York, that if the time
should come when we should
have any difficulty with a fore
ign nation, involving naval
operations, there would pro
bably be some surprises in stoie
in connection with the perfor
mance of our gunners. lie stated
that the practice of gunners in
the United States navy firing at
targats, etc , was, he believe-4,
more thoroun and better than
in any other navy in existence,

would exert an important influ

which our gunners might take
part, and his prdiction seems to
be borne out by recent events.

"All's Not Well."
Dr. Field who was the exam

Reserves while the recruiting
was being done in New Orleans,
had many a good story to tell ot
recruits in the service, says the
New Orleans Times-Democrat.
A good one he tells Is of a Ger
man who was walking his post
and calling the hours as is re
quired. He called "seven bells
and all's veil." The next call,
however, was a variation. It

j2. Fighting continued during
the day, at this hour is believed
that Santiago will be captured
within twenty-four hours. The
American have advanced steadily
all day, several Spanish trenches
are now occupied, in which was
found many dummy wooden
guns. The fire from the Span-,
iards is very weak.
The tfbove dispatch was sent
from the field after Shafter's
message was received at Washs
ington this morui ng. It seems
that Toral's second proposition
to surrender was rejected and
fighting resumed. The advent
of General Miles on the scene
with instructions from Wash
ington also led to the resump
tion ot ho3tilities.
