6PEND BILLIONS ON WAR.
Ualted states Expend More than Aay
Other Civilised Nation.
The United Statei during the century
Just closed has been regarded at a
peaceful nation and yet over one-third
of the enormous cost of war paid by all
the nations has fallen on her. The dis
bursements by the United States treas
ury ou account of the Civil War from
July 1, 18G1. to June SO. 1879, amounted
to 10,187,2-13,385. Thomas E. Wilson,
In the Review of the Republic, esti
mates that the additional Civil War
disbursements tor debt, Interest aud
pensions from June 80, 1879, to July I.
1900, amounted to $3,904,838,775, mak
ing a total Federal expenditure of $10,-
092,082,100. The disbursements of the
Confederate government exceeded $3,
000,000,000 for the mere maintenance
of armies In the field. Mr. Wilson esti
mates tnat the governmental expendi
tures on both sides in the Civil War
will, when the books are closed, amount
to $17,772,000,000, aud that the Individ
ual losses during the war amounted to
$30,000,000,000. Flaclug the cash ex
penditures of the United States In the
Civil War at $17,722,000,000, In the
Spanish war at $500,000,000 and In the
war of 1812, the Mexican war and the
Indian wars at $300,000,000, Mr. Wil
son makes the total contribution of the
United States treasury to the war fund
for the century $18,772,000,000.
It la estimated that Napoleonic wars
from 1793 to 1815 cost $3,250,000,000;
the war between Russia and Turkey to
1828, $100,000,000; the war between
Spain and Portugal, from 1830 to 1840,
$250,000,000; the war between France
and Algeria, from 1830 to 1847, $190,-
000,000; civil war In Europe In 1848,
$50,000,000; the Crimean war. $1,126,-
000,000; the war In 1859 between
France and Austria, $225,000,000; the
war of 1800, between Prussia and Aus
tria, $100,000,000; the war between
Germany and France In 1870 and 1871,
$1,580,000,000; the war of 1877, be
tween Russia and Turkey, $050,000,000;
the war between France and Mexico In
1875, $75,000,000; between Brasll and
Paraguay, In 1804 to 1870, $250,000,000
These figures are from Mulhall, and In
clule only direct government expenses,
It Is estimated that the minor wars of
Great Britain In India, Egypt and Afri
ca have cost $2,000,000,000. The Boet
war has already cost England $500,000,-
000. France's minor wars have cost $1,-
000,000,000, and Spain has spent In va J
rlous wars $0,000,000,000.
On these statements presented by
Wilson and Mulhall, manifestly incom
plete and unfair, the United States Civ
il War cost more by $7,00,000,000 than
ten European wars, and the wart of the
South American republics have cost
more than all the Russian wars In Asia.
The total expenditures of civilised na
tions for war In the century are put at
$49,008,000,000.

Concerning golf the story la told that
a man who took but little luterest In bis

not seem a very polite person, for he
never allowed ber to beat him. Still,

taxed his wife with the colonel She

FILIPINOS QUICK TO LEARN.
Two-Thirds of the Civil Positions Now filled
by Them.
Washington, June 25. Hon. Leo W.
Pepperman, member of the Philippine!
civil service com in ins ion, is in the city,
having arrived on leave of absence from
Manila. Mr. Pepperman today said
"The scope of the commission has
been extended gradually until it now
coven 6,000 positkma.ranging in salary
from $15 per month to $7,700 per year."
He says the immediate award to suc
cessful applicants has cauwd a change
in trie old classical system of education
under the old Spanish regime to one of
more modern charact.tr, based largely
on practical busines-i lines. So great is
the interest of the Filipinos in acquir
ing a knowledge of English that 10.000
adults are going to night schools in
Mauila.
Before the American advent in
Manila typewritten were almost un
known in the Philippines, but at every
examinstion held by the commission
applicants are qualifying in typewriting
and stenography.. Of the 6,000 posi
tions' mentioned, 4.000 are held bv
natives, the remainder by Americans.
The policy of the commission. Mr.
Pepperman says, has been to replace
Amei icans by Filipinos as "rapidly ns
possible.
"Under Spanish rule, ' he tontin-
ued, "women were unheard of in the
government service, but before I left
Manila three Filipino young ladies had
passed successful examinations and had
been given good positions. The Fili
pino makes a splendid clerk. Shortly
liefore coming to America I made a tour
of the principal provinces for the 'pur
pose of conducting examinations. It
was surprising how much good material
was discovered, considerina the fact
that the education of the islands is cen
tered in Manila.' .
NO TREATY WITH CUBA.
Timt Too Short Before End of Session to
Negotiate One
Washington, Jrne 25. It has been
determined that no reciprocity treaty
with Cuba can be submitted at the
present session of congress'. It was at
first planued that, in the event of the
failure of the administration managers
in the senate to secure favorable action
on the Cuban sugar bill, a treaty
would be drafted at once. This was on
the understanding that Senor Quesada,
the Cuban minister here, had full
power and that a treaty could be drawn
up in Washington entirely. It is
stated now, however, that this cannot
be done, and that any draft of a treaty
must go to Havana and be returned be
fore it can be submitted to the senate.
This, of course, cannot be accom
plished in the short space of time in
tervening before adjournment, if the
estimates of the leaders that congress
will adjourn by July 4 are correct.
No confidence is felt in administra
tion circles aa to the ability of the sen
ate managers to secure the ratification
of a treaty, eveu if one is drawn, and
while the president may feel called
upon to put the matter to a test,' it w ill
be lather with the idea of demonstrat
ing his own purpose to do everything
possible for Cuba than in any expecta
tion that a two-thirds vote for ratific a
tion could be received.
DEBATE WARMS UF.
Philippine Discussion In tht Mouse Becomes
Lively.
Washington, June 25. Some routine
bnsiness preceded the resumption of
the debate on the Philippine civil gov
ernment bill in the house yesterday.
Bills were passed to make Great Falls,
Mont., the port of entry for the collec
tion district comprising Montana and
Idaho; to authorize the secretary of

provided under the present law; to ex
tend the privileges of transportation
of dutiable merchandise without ap
praisement to the sub-ports of Tacoma
and Seattle, Wash.
A resolution was adopted calling

tion as to the payments made by Guy
ernor General Wood to F. B Thnrber
and any other person or coiporation,
together with the dates and accounts
oi such payments, for advocating re
ciprocity with Cuba.
The consideration of the Philippine
civil government bill was then resumed
aud DeArmond, of Mo., made a general
speech in opposition to the policy of re
taining the islands. He was followed
by Oimstead, Groevenor and Mahon
favoring their retention. These speech
es were answeied by Bartlett, after
which the- house adjourned until 8
o'clotk in the evening, when a number
of speeches were made for and against
the measure under consideration.

KING EDWARD ILL
CORONATION HAS BEEN INDEF
INITELY POSTPONED.
An Operation Performed King Stands It Well
and Will Probably Recover No Date
Set for Ceremonies London's Decora
tions are Being Removed and Stands Dt
snollihtd Ctmt as a Surprise.
London, June 25. With dramatic
suddonness the king has been stricken
down upon the eve of his coronation.
He now lies in a critical state at
Buckingham palace, and the coronation
has been indefinitely postponed. Sir
Francis Knollys, the king's private
secretary, issued the following official
announcement joSoiday afternoon:-
"The king is suffering from perityph
litis. His condition on Saturday was
so satisfactory that it was hoped that
with care his majesty would be able to
go through the ceremonies. . On Mon
day .evening -a recrudeeence became
manifest, rendering a surgical opera
tion necessary today."
Two hours later the following bulle
tin was posted at Buckingham palace:
The operation has been succesnfully
performed. - A large abscess has been
evacuated. The king has borne the
operation well, and is in a satisfactory
condition."
There is no question, however, that
the king's condition is extremely criti
cal. King Edward is in a room facing
the beautiful gardens of Buckingham
palace, and far from the street and the
crowd. If last night's progress is
maintained, he will probably tide over
the effects of his severe 6peration,
which successfully removed the local
trouble. But should any complication
occur, such as septic peritonitis or
blood poisoning, it is feared his majes
ty's present physical and nervous con
dition would prove unequal to the
strain involved. 'There is consequently
intense anxiety as to the outcome.-
The king's doctors believe that his
majesty would have boen dead . before
now except for the operation. His
condition became so alarming that at
one time it was feared death might
ensue before the surgeon's knife could
afford him relief. Intense swelling of
the extremities, accompanied by
alarming symptoms of mortification,
constituted the emergency, and de
manded ah immediate operation. To
the lant the king tried to avoid this,
and he was willing to be carried to the
abbey for the coronation ceremony in
order that it should occur as arranged.
The influence of Queen Alexandra was
enlisted, however, and at an early
hour yesterday morning the royal pa
tient was prepared for the operation,
which even in the skillful hf.ndB of
England's best surgeons was fraught
with grave danger.
Queen Alexandra is terribly upset
and nervous. The royal grandchildren
were driven to the palace shortly after
o clock yesterday afternoon. The
Prince and Princess of Wales remained
at Buckingham palace throughout the
afternoon and when they left they ap
peared decidedly more cheerful than on
their arrival.
The best opinion seems to be that no
less than three months' postponement
of the coronation is inevitable, and
even in the event of the kinu's recovery,
the crowning of his majesty will cer
tainly be shorn of all its arranged-for
glories.
In the streets the change which came
over the crowds was most pronounced.
Traffic seemed momentarily paralyzed
and it was long before the full efftct of
the startling intelligence was felt.
The work of demolishing the stands
and all the paraph rena I ia prepared for
the coronation is in full swing. Hun
dreds of workmen, who, yesterday
morning, were engaged in putting the
finishing touches on the various jobs,
are now at work tearing down all tint
had taken weeks to aciomplinh. The
loss of the insurance companies will be
heavy, as great numbers of commercial
companies and private individual had
taken out policies to cover them from
the loss of receipts from standx and
the cost of decorations in the event of
the coronation not being held.
TORONTO STRIKE ENDED.
Street Railway Employe Agree to a Com
promise Begin Work at Once.
Toronto, June 26. The strike of
ttreet railway employes was ended to
night by the signing of a compromise
in behalf of the employes and the com
pany. It was agreed that the wage
scale announced by the company, pro
viding for pay at the rate of 17 n 21
cents per hour, according to the num
ber of yeais in continuous service, shall
remain in effect until July 1. In the
meantime, the employes may hold a
meeting, to be called under the
auspices of the board of trade com
mittee, and if the majority of the regu
lar and relief men vote by ballot to
submit a scale of 18 cents per hour for
the first year of service and 20 cents
thereafter, the company will substitute
it for the present scale. The company
will not interfere with the right of the
employes to organize, but 'declines to ,
recognize the union or to receive a
grievance committee from the union.
War Against Castro.
Washington, June 26. The state de
partment today received a cablegram
from United States Minister Bowen, at
Caiacas. The off cials declined to make
public the text of the dispatch, but it
is understood that it reports a critical
rtate of affairs arising from the present
revolutionary movement against Presi
dent Castro, which is generally recog
nized aa the strongest yet known there.
Cubaa Treaty With England.
New York, June 26. At a meeting
