Since the announcement was made that the Jekyl Island millionaire, want a gun, with which to defend them* selves against the Spaniards, the news papers in different parts of the country have been extending to them their profonndest sympathy. The fact that they occupy a very exposed position ia very generally recognised. It would be a calamity that would shake oar financial institutions to their founds, lions if Spain should send a warship to Jekyl Island, kidnap all the million, sires there and bold them for ransoms. The ransoms they could pay would go a long way towards putting Spain’s treasury in healthy condition. The following from the Chicago Chronicle is supposed to be a truthful picture of the situation at Jekyl Island. It says.- “Ihe denizens of that luxu rious retreat are in a state bordering upon nervous prostration lest a Span ish cruiser should steam up the coast and begin dropping bombshells among them. The apprehension ia only too well founded. The wily Spaniards, locking for a spot at which to deliver a telling blow at the American nation, would infallibly pick out Jekyl Island. It ia the locality where sterling patri otism and stalwart Americanism are concentrated. Not a man belongs to the Jekyl Island Club who is worth less than a million A brickbat burled at random into a knot of club membets would bring dowu either a railroad president or a member of the bond syndicate and cause a panic in Wall street. Fancy, then, the effect that would be produced upon the nation by the explosion of a ten inch shell on Jekyl Island! The lepublic would go to pot before the echoes of the explo sion had died away. The Jekyl island era have asked that a big gun be loca ted at the south end of the island, but the administration should do more. A whole battery should be placed in position and a squadron of battleships should patrol the coast diy and night. For upon the safety of the Jekyl islanders rests the existence of the nation.” 1100 Reward, SIOO.
