The minimem temperature was 52 degrees, oc- curring on the 11th. The monthly range of the temperature was 50 degrees, while the greatest daily range was 30 degrees, oc- curring on the Ist. The least daily range was 3 degrees, which happened on the 8th. The thermometer reached the 90 degree mark or over on sixteen days of the month, “The total monthly rainfall was 2.74 inches, rather a small showing, making a daily average of 9:100 of an inch. There were eleven days upon which 1-100 of an inch or more of rain fell, Thunderstorms Oocurred on nine days. There were eleven clear days, thirteen fair ones and seven cloudy days during the whole month. The prevailing direction of the wind was from the south.

Adams admitted that this was his cecond offensé of larceny, and sald he “was so ashamed that h& was willing to take a sentence without trial.” - VENEZUELAN SENTIMENT It Has Recently Changed in Favor of This , Country. South American Republics Repudi- ate Spain and Look to the United States for Protection. Speetal Correspondence of The Evening Star. CARACAS, Venezuela, July 26, 1898. Americans in Caracas were very much in- terasted in an editorial in The Evening Star of June 10 on the sentiment in Venezuela ecncerning the war with Spaim, and an ex- tract from El Pregonero, declaring “that all the opinions, convictions and good wishes are on the side of Spain.” ‘The tone of the press has changed com- pletely within the last forty days, and I find a friendly feeling for the United States everywhere prevailing in the newspaper world, save, of course, in the two journals which are published by the large Spanish colony in Caracas. In fact, the article quoted in The Star did not represent the true feeling here, and has been disavowed by the paper which printed it. The follow- ing recent leading editoriai from the Pr2go- nero shows clearly this change of senti- ment: Spain and the United States. “It is certain if the history of nations and of international wars teaches anything, that not only will Cuba realize its long- cherished dream of independence as a re- sult of the struggle between the United States and Spain, but that the commercial relations of South America will soon be enormously increased with the former country. “Spain has failed to keep her place in the onward march of progressive, enlight- ened nations of the world. She belongs to the past, and is steeped in idle dreams of her vanished glory. She fancies that be- cause she was once an ¢rresistible con- quering power that she ought to continue the present vain struggle, though the an- nihilation of Cervera’s fleet at Santiago de Cuba and the capture of the city make it plain to the rest of the world that Spain's hour of doom has sounded. Spain has been struggling against progress, against des- tiny, but pride of race should not make her blind to the fate which has decreed her downfall. “In the great triumph of the United States we discern no purpose to molest to absorb the smaller nations on this of the Atlantic, or on the othtr side of the Pacific. -We see on the other hand fresh vitality given to a new and wider applica- tion of the Monroe doctrine, which means we shall be protected from the unjust in- terference and intervention of Europe. “United by ties of reciprocal interests with the great nation of the north we may count upon the moral support of its squad- rons and the material advantage of its commerce, and thus recognized as worthy of respect by the other nations of the world. “From a commercial point of view it is certain that the United States will have to extend its influence in these southern coun- tries, but this in itself will be a guarantee that the splendid progressive spirit of that great nation wll infuse new life in our veins and we shall share with it the tr! umphs of its development and its reforms From this point of view American inter- vention will always receive our support and admiration. 5 ‘or we must not deceive ourselves; while we continue a weak nation, unable to sustain our rights, and although morual- ly we may be amply justified, we will always be at the mercy of European diplo- macy, and a nation, merely because it is powerful, can invade our shores with ships and torpedoes, pretending to enforce claims, for the most part imaginary, and oblige us te enter into a shame-faced com- pact. “We must ally ourselves with some na- tion that can protect us, and consequently we must look to the United States of America, under whese powerful protection may pass some day nations now consider- ed invincible, for the great republic has un- told millions and powerful squadrons. From Spain on the other hand, all we can get is the example of her former deeds of valor to inspire us, if indeed we require such in- spiration.” Against America. The truth is the Spaniards, who are strong in numbers here, about 25,000, set out to do the United States as much harm as possible in a commercial way. Their minister thought he would hit us a lick that we would feel for sone time by creat- ing a prejudice against everything Ameri- can, and he employed skilled writers to at- tack us and had several of these attacks collected in a pamphlet and sent all over South America. The resident Americans have tried to meet this attack aimed at our commercial Interests, and have, I think, done so, though the fight has been a hard one, ow- ing to the fact that all the papers here have long been in the habit of going to French and Spanish sources for their in- formation and news. Change in the Feeling. Fifty columns of matter were translated from English into Spanish in order to set the American position properly before the people here, who have heard nothing but the Spanish side, and who were being re- galed with the nasty comments of the Spanish and French papers. The extract from the Pregonero which was published by The Star and other pa- pers some weeks ago very naturally caused many business men to think Americans could not receive fair treatment in Ven- ezuela. We are having a pretty active time here. Many attempts to send blockade runners to Cuba and Porto Rico from La Guayra, our nearest seaport, have been made. The Spanish minister had a large sum placed to his credit for the purchase of food sup- plies. In every case the sailing of these expeditions was stopped, though it was not ciear that it could be legally done. x. a Excessive Zeal. Washington Downey and Eugene Camp- bell, the latter colored, were today each fined $5 by Judge Mills for assaulting George Culpeper, colored. The prisoners were defended by Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood and Mr. Fountain Peyton. The former claimed that there was no assault and that what Culpeper construed as such was sim- ply an excess of zeal on the part of her clients to get the complaining witness to have his life insured, they being in that profession. ——— ee Six Months in Jail. For assaulting Hannah Smith, colored, and cutting her with a knife, William Beckwith, also colored, was today sent to jail for six months by Judge Mills. The woman did not want to présecute the case, but Judge Mills decided that her desires in the matter should be disregarded. —_———_ Youthful Offender Sent to Jail. George Rollins, colored, aged fifteen years, was today sent to jail by Judge Mills for eleven months and twenty-two days for attempting to commit a felonious assault on Lettie Wilson, also colored, aged three years, Saturday afternoon. The boy was detected by the child’s mother, but he managed to escape for the time being and Was arrested several hours later by Officer Burlingame. ——— District Soldiers 111 of Fever. .
