with Spain is especially appropriate this
year, as our country is now engaged in

may soon be celebrating another announce-
ment of peace.

be exact, at 4;j:; p. m. Fridar. August 12.

representing the Cnited States, and M.

signatures to the document which brought
the hundred day war to a close
I he Dally Express for Saturday, August
li, INSIS, carried a full story of the sign-
ing ot the peace treaty of America's last
war previous to entering the great con
flict lor democracy. I nder the head of
"the Peace Protocol Has Been Signed."
the story took up the entire front page,
l he protoi ol provided
"That Spain relinquish all claim of
sovereignty over and title to Cuba. That
Porto itlco and other Spanish Islands in
the West Indies ami an island iu the
Ladrones to be selected by the Cnited
States shall be ceded to the' latter. That
the I nlted States will occupy and hold
the city, bay and harbor of Manila peuil
ing the conclusion of a treaty of peace,
which shall determine the control, dispose
tiou und government of the Philippines."
The same afternoon President -McKiulev
issued the proclamation which brought
America's lust war previous to the present
one to a close. The proclamation called
tor the cessation of hostilities and was
immediately cabled to the army and naval
commanders of the Cnited States. The
cubic to Admiral Iiewcy was sent by way
of Hong Kong and so did not reach liiiii
iu time to prevent the bombardment of
Manila, two days after the peace protocol
had been signed.
According to The Express files the after-
noon on which the treaty was signed was
rainy and disagreeable At shout noon
tile note from Madrid began to arrive ut
the French Embassy lu small lots.
Early In the afternoon Secretary Thle-
huult of the French Embassy appeared
before Secretary of State Uav to inform
him that the Ambassador was in full pos-
session of the note and wis fullv empow-
ered to sign the protocol for Spain.
I lie French Ambassador was informed
thut the President would receive him at
the White House at 4 p. m. At the up
pointed hour, it was raining, obliging all
parties to resort, to carriages for trans-
portation. Secretary Hay came first with
a long portfolio containing the copies of
the protocol and the President's proclama-
tion. lie was accompanied b\ Assistant
Secretaries Moore. Alice anil Cridlcr. They
were ushered Into the Cabinet room, where
the President sat III watting.
Ambassador fiunboii with Secretary
Thlehaiit reached the White House five
minutes before Hie iippoiuteii time. Push-
ing their wny through the cordon of news-
paper men. they went direct to the library
adjoining the Cabinet room. Ten minute's
later they were ushered Into the Presi-
dent's presence. After exchanging diplo-
matic courtesies. Assistant Secretary of
State Cridlcr. on the part of the I'nited
States, and First Secretary Thlebaut. on
the part of Spain, retired to a window,
where there was a formal examination of
the protocol.
The cxuminutioii concluded, the docu-
ment was blinded to M c.iinbon first and
then l.i Secretary Hay. who affixed their
signatures In that order to ca< h of the
two copies, Throughout the ceremonies nil
but the two signers remained standing
President McKinley then requested the
hand of Ambassador Cumbon and through
him returned thanks to the sister republic
of France for the exercise of her good of-
fices lu bringing about peace.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies Act-
ing Secretary Allen hustened to the tele-
phone and directed that cable messages
be Immediately sent to Hewe.y in the
Philippines, Sampson at Ounntnnnino and
the various commandants at other stations
Adjutant General Corbln rushed to the
War Department, where he immediately
issued orders to all military commanders
to cense operations.
That was the manner in which twentv
years ago today the I'nited States made
peace with the last foreign power it fou"h!
previous to this war. Though no one
knows when this war will be brought to a
close, curious as It may seem, it is alto-
