The defeat, after a year'a campaign, of the bull leader who for o long seemed the greatest who hsd ever arisen, took the heart from every ono who hud believed in bis cause. It was only lust June that the dlaastei took place; about four months ago. It eema a long interval, but it ia reallv a short one, and it would be remarkable if it were not atill In everyone's mind. What new bull leader would now invite the comiiariaons which would inevitably bt made; what banking concern would hazard the criticism which would fol low any favors toward a buying cam paign in grsin?

Will Ha ASSaaaaa hj the Dailies' Main New York. Oct, HI. A disiitach to the World fiom Washington ay: The I nite.l States will assume the indebt edness of the Cuban luunicinalitiis. but will not agree to pay or guarantee any portion of the general debt. This statement was mude to the World correspondent by the highest Minority in Washington at this time. There can be no doubt as to Its coriect less. Hy this receasion from the original instructions to the American commis- sion, the Spanish commission has won a victory. The instructions to the American commission watt that they were not to consider or discuss the ques tion of the Cuban or Porto Moan debt. The debt of the municipalitiea of Cuba will be assumed bv the I'nited States and pro rated among municipali ties when a permanent government is established. In making this couceasion the Americans were actuated by a do iiro to protect American interests. The water works, elootric-lighting plants and other muuicipal improvements were largely constructed by American capital, the bonus being guaranteed by the Spanish government. State department officials say that the assumption of tho Cuban municipal debt win contemplated from the outset in the event of Spain making the plea that the indebtedness was incmred in improving tho conditions of the Islsnd. This view is indorsed by international lawyers. As Spain did not derive any benefit from the money expended in improvements in Cuba and will not in future, juiiati say it ii only proper that the United States ass'imo the in debtedness for municipal works. The contract! already made for municipal improvement! will also be honored by the American government. GOLD FROM KLONDIKE. Output It Katlinatrd at Klghl Million Dal lata, Seattle. Oct. 21.
