In a siege narrative, Philip Ara gon and Don Juan press attacks against Salvarez’s castle. A brutal volley costs lives and a guerrilla defense follows, yielding a temporary stalemate before Gomez orders a renewed assault with two hundred Zambos. The attackers claim victory as Salvarez retreats.
Medworth and Tempest navigate dark caverns to the castle while Salvarez plots to blow the fortress using a hidden powder magazine. The Americans intercept a clandestine plan as Salvarez leads a team to ignite the powder but are stopped by Medworth and Tempest, who seize lanterns and prevent disaster. Lola Garza remains in the castle as the crisis unfolds.
In the castle, Don Juan reveals Lola has vanished amid feasting after the battle. Philip and Don Juan suspect Gomez of abducting her and plan to pursue him, with orders to kill him if found traitorous. The Potomac River note follows the cliffhanger.
The 1901 census compiled by the American Protective Tariff League shows a 16.55 percent gain in sheep owned since 1900 and a 3.59 percent rise in average value per head to 4.04 dollars. Tariff protections plus strong demand for mutton keep American flocks financially robust despite world wool market slumps.
The Philadelphia Manufacturers' Club, a major U.S. industry group, backs tariff protection and opposes revisions or reciprocity schemes. At a June 17, 1901 meeting, resolutions decry changes to tariff schedules and urge nonpartisan review if any alteration is needed, preserving domestic jobs and protection.
A dismissed critique argues that tariff protection will not cause commercial isolation in the South and notes rising exports since the Dingley tariff. The Times editor is faulted for misreading Gladstone on growing cheaper cotton and wheat.
The excerpt argues that the United States, with about 77 million people, accounts for roughly one twentieth of the world population yet consumes about one third of global products. It attributes this to Americans earning substantial incomes and living as luxury lords.
