Disposition —Monday Fixed For 


Releasing the Congress From 


Restraint—President’s Course 


Assailed and Defended. 


Washington, April 1.—The reply of 
Spain to the final representations of 
President McKinley began to arrive at 
the White House at 11 o'clock last night, 
and the president, with Assistant Sec- 
retary Day, stayed up to read it as fast 
4s it was transmitted. The president 
knew in a general way something of the 
nature of the dispatch, but he was anx- 
all the details. He de- 
cided to make nothing public until to- 
day. 


Shortly after 


ious to know 


the operator began to 
take the message Judge Day announced 
to newspaper men that no matter what 
the dispatch contained its contents 
would be given to no one then, and that 
not a single word relating to the sub- 
ject would be made public until today. 
All requests for further information 
were refused. 

When the conference broke up, the 
men who attended it preserved the ut- 
most reticence, and said they did not feel 
at liberty to discuss the situation. 

While no one would talk with any de- 
of freedom, a senator made this 
admission: “The message is not what 
we expected.”” Another senator later 
added that Spain asked for more time 
and had made counter propositions. 

Spain does not accede to the Ameri- 
can demands; neither does she positive- 
ly and finally reject them. The question 
is still left open for future negotiations. 
According to the traditional policy of 
Spanish diplomacy, more delay is re- 
and much evasion is mani- 
fested. One of the reasons for asking 
further time is the fact that the min- 
istry cannot act without the ratifica- 
tion of the cortes, which is not now in 
Counter propositions are also 
suggested rather than plainly stated, 
which look to the side tracking of the 
main issue, which fs the immediate and 
complete independence of Cuba. 

It is now a question with the president 
whether he will continue to treat with 
Spain further along the lines suggested 
in the dispatch and grant the additional 
time which is requested. The reply of 
the Spanish government wil) be con- 
sidered at the meeting of the cabinet 
today, and then it will be decided wheth- 
er an ultimatum will be sent to Spain. 
Up to this time no ultimatum, in the 
diplomatic sense of the word, has been 
forwarded, If sent, it will mean that 
Spain must, within 24 hours, answer 
specifically as to the demands made by 
the United States. In the event of a 
failure to answer or a positive rejection 
of the American propositions the presi- 
dent will suggest to congress the advisa- 
bility of recognizing the independence 
of Cuba and enforcing the recognition 
by a military demonstration.

Congress wfl wait until Monday be- 
fore any action is taken. The commit-

ter an interview with the president, re- 
ported a recommendation that no action 
be taken until Monday, and its report 
was approved. The president made a 
frank declaration as to what was taking 
place between the two governments, and 
concluded with these words: “I pray 
God that we may be able to keep peace.”

A QUESTION OF HOW. 


Agreement Said to Have Been Reached 
on All Points, 

Madrid, April 1—After a conference 
of three Spanish ministers and General 
Woodford, which lasted about an hour 
last evening, one of the members of the 
cabinet said: “I firmly believe that 
peace is assured. Spain, ina note drawn 
up personally by Mr. Sagasta, has made 
enormous concessionz in the hope of as- 
suring peace. She has given way in 
every possible manner, only drawing the 
line where her dignity as a nation has 
been violated. We are sure the presi- 
dent of the United States, with his fair- 
ness of mind, will see how anxious we 
are for peace. 

“On all points we agreed with the 
propositions of the United States; but it 
is a question of how tiey should be ap- 
plied. I believe that General Woodford 
fully appreciated our attitude. If the 
president. of the United States is strong 
enough, as we firmly believe, what we 
suggested means peace of the highest 
kind. If the jingoes have their own 
way, it simply means war, and we have 
got to accept it. But 1 am firmly con- 
vinced that we are going to have peace.” 

Minister Woodford, immediately after 
the conference, retired to the legation 
and wrote out a lengthy cipher cable to 
the president. 

Most remarkable during the whole day 
has been the entire absence of any ex- 
citement. Nobody here believes in war. 
The ministers, above all, believe in 
peace. All appreciate the situation as 
serious, however, and press and public 
treat it as such. General Woodford, it 
was noted, was mostcordial with the 
Spanish ministers, ani they expressed 
themselves as favoraby impressed with 
him, 

Premier Sagasta sad to an _ inter- 
viewer: “As Spanishsovereignty ob- 
tains in Cuba we chim the right to 
manage the island in our own way. 
People du not care to gibmit the affairs 
of their own househod to arbitration. 
The application of awonomy ought to 
settle the question in Cuba, particularly 
as it is not hideboundautonomy. There 
is no reason why thisautonomy should 
not be made even moe comprehensive 
if itis shown to be desinble, but the right 
of the United States tc feed the Cubans 
and the nature of he intervention 
claimed by the Unitd States are dis- 
tinct questions, and hould be treated 
as such. The urging ‘f a discussion of 
the whole Cuban queston at once great- 
ly increases the difficlty at this time.” 


Spain’s Negatie Position, 

New York, April 1—A special from 
Washington to The Wrild gives the fol- 
lowing outline of Spai’sreply: “Spain 
neither accedes to norleclines President 
McKinley's proposals She makes the 
counter argument tht Spain should 
herself be allowed ti propose terms as 
to what should be one regarding her 
own territory; thatthe United States 
should not do so.” 


PASSIONATE DUTBURST., 


Cheers, Jeers and Kkses Intermingled 
During a Debat Over Cuba, 
Washington, April —For three hours 
Thursday the packecgalleries and the 
members of the hose listened to a 
passionate outburst f oratory on the 
Cuban question, dung which the in- 
tensity of feeling wa alternately man- 
ifested by cheers, jeerand hisses. Time 
and again the excid throngs in the 
galleries were admonhed to be silent. 


CHARLES H.ROSVENOB. 

The speeches whi:stirred the assem- 
blage were made | Mr. Grosvenor of 
Ohio, who, it wasssumed, spoke for 
the administrationid who practically 
pledged it to the use of free Cuba; 
Mr. Bailey of Tes, the Democratic 
leader; who annoued the Democratic 
position as for freCCuba without war 
if it could be avied, but with war 
if necessary, andr. Johnson of In- 
diana, who spoke r peace, declaring 
that it was our duto go to the extfeme 
in magnanimity tcvoid the horrors of 
war. 

Mr. Lewis, a Inocrat from Wash- 
ington, provoked e speech of Mr. 
Johnson, which aised the members 
and the galleries tae fever pitch of ex- 
citement. He ha@nounced the prop- 
osition that Cuba rchase her freedom 
from Spain, whicit was alleged, the 
administration wasstering. Then Mr. 
Johnson, in a briint speech, pleaded 
for peace. Like partan he faced the 
storm of hisses wh swept down from 
the galleries, andith passionate ut- 
terance adjured mbers to pause be- 
fore they plungede country into war. 


ing to raise $100,000,000 to purchase their 
independence. We have brought these 
two antagonizing forces together by the 
success of the judgment, diplomacy and 
exalted patriotism of the statesman 
fn the White House, and I believe that 
if we will give him a fair opportunity 
to carry out his purposes he will bring 
us to a triumphant conclusion without 
shedding an ounce of American blood.” 

Mr. Bailey, in a ringing speech which 
set his followers and the galleries wild, 
announced his belief, from what Mr. 
Johnson had said, that the purpose of 
the Republicans in refusing to join with 
the Democrats was to give the admin- 
istration an opportunity to compel the 
Cuban patriots to purchase their inde- 

pendence they had won from the butch- 
ers of Spain. He said he too deplored 
war and, in describing its horrors as the 
southern people had known them, drew 
tears from the eyes of some of his col- 
leagues. He declared that there was 
yet achancetoavertwar. Hehad been 
told within 24 hours by a representative 
of the Cuban junta that all the Cubans 
wanted was to have their independence 
recognized, as with the munitions of 
war and the recruits they could then ob- 
tain their independence could be 
achleved. 

“In all the history of this republic no 
party has ever acted more patriotically 
or unselfishly than the Democratic party 
has during this crisis,’ he continued. 
“Six months ago, if you had done as we 
urged you to do, if you had recognized 
the rights of these struggling patriots 
to fight for independence, war would 
have been averted and Cuba would to- 
day be an established fact in the his- 
tory of the world, and that unfortunate 
disaster which has horrified humanity 
and humiliated American citizenship 
would never have occurred, The great 
battleship Maine would still have been 
upon the high seas, flying the flag of this 
republic, and the more than 250 brave 
sailors, many of whom now sleep many 
fathoms deep beneath Cuban waters, 
would now be wearing the uniform of 
the nation which they honored with their 
courage and sought to defend with their 
ives.” 

This speech drew from General Gros- 
venor a fiery answer. He charged Mr. 
Bailey with attempting to make political 
capital He denounced the statement 
that the administration intended to force 
Cuba to buy her freedom as the silly 
invention of an idiot, and declared that 
from the president down the adminis- 
tration was for free Cuba. He thrilled 
his auditors when he asked: “What 
means the mighty demonstration of war 
that is being made in this country? 
What is the United States going to do? 
Is it going to make a ‘shilly-shally’ dec- 
laration that the Cubans are free and 
then let them go to the devil in the clutch 
of the Spanish nation? My countrymen, 
you have not been betrayed by your ad- 
ministration or deceived by it. Thead- 
ministration is in touch wth the high- 
est inspiration and the best motives 
of patriotic citizens throughout the 
whole land, and the people of this coun- 
try will shout in praise of a Republican 
administration that will carry into ex- 
ecution the power, the will, and the 
edict of the American people.” 

After Mr. Grosvenor concluded the 
debate went on, the most significant ut- 
terances being made by Mr. Cummings, 
a New York Democrat, who denounced 
the political character which the ques- 
tion was assuming as unpatriotic and 
unwise. Little progress was made with 
the naval bill. The only important 
amendment adopted was one appropriat- 
ing $500,000 for the erection of new build- 
ings at the naval academy. 


Enthuslasm In Madrid. 

Madrid, April 1.—The sale of seats for 
the performance for the benefit of a pop- 
ular fund to purchase a warship amount- 
ed to more than $32,500, including a gift 
of $10,000 from Marquis Vellemejor; but 
many important amounts are not includ- 
ed in this total. The house was 
crammed and the scene was one of in- 
describable enthusiasm, with frenzied 
cries of “‘Long live Spain,” “Long live 
Cuba” and “Long live the army and 
navy.” 

The moment the queen regent entered 
the royal box the audience gave her 
a@ delirious ovation, which was repeated 
after the third act of the opera. The 
scenes were really extravagant. Ladies 
of the highest aristocracy, in brilliant 
toilets and jewels, ministers and high 
officials, occupied boxes, while the or- 
dinary cheaper seats were occupied by 
personages high in society. 

The final scene was a magnificent 
apotheosis. In the center of the stage, 
on a pedestal, appeared a gilded lion 
holding in his paw the Spanish escutch- 
eon on a trophy of national flags. Be- 
hind the lion, whose eyes flashed with 
electric lights, were other groups, in- 
cluding faithful productions of the ves- 
sels with which Columbus discovered 
America. The names of Alfonzo XII 
and Alfonzo XIII appeared on the face 
of another pedestal bearing the figure 
of a matron representing Spain, 


Stripped of Woodwork. 

Key West, April 1.—Every preparation 
for action was taken on the warships 
yesterday. All woodwork was stripped 
off exposed spots and sent ashore. The 
wood pilot houses on the cruisers were 
taken down. To a certain extent in- 
terior woodwork was also removed and 
sent ashore. Even the sailors’ wooden 
boxes were removed from some of the 
ships. These precautions have been 
taken to preyent. so far as possible, the

it was reported that ke would make

COUNTY NOT LIABLE. 


Ex-Commissioner Morrell Must 
Pay for His Defence. 


There is justice in the finding of the 
Supreme court holding that judgment 
should be entered for the defendant in 
the case of R. M. Morse vs. the county 
of Norfolk. The suit was brought to 
recover $2500 for services rendered in 
representing the county commissioners 
of Norfolk county at the legislative in- 
vestigation in 1896. 

The court says, ‘*While

Ex-Councilman Moxon Writes | Exit James F. Burke—Enter| Little Items of Interest About 


on the Financial Issue. 


Almeda, South Carolina, 
March 30th, 1898. 
Editors of Patriot and Daily Ledger: 

While I am pleased to know that 
Ward Six has a representative in the 
City Council who is alive to the in- 
justice which the payment of an-un- 
necessarily large part of the city debt 
does to any given year, I can not 
entirely agree with your editorial in 
which you express the hope that the 
law will be found to permit the re- 
newal of a part of that debt for the 
present year. This is not (as you say) 
a debt contracted for ordinary 
municpal purposes, but is on the con- 
trary a debt contracted for specific 
purposes and is not a compulsory debt 
but one wholly within the discretion 
of the City Council to contract. 

The present conditions are not the 
result of careless legislation, but are 
the deliberate action of the legisla- 
tives and executives which authorized 
them. It is entirely true that all 
legislature bodies not only empowered 
but are expected to amend or repeal 
the acts of their predecessors to suit 
new conditions, but it is also true 
that such action should not be taken 
when only temporary relief is needed, 
especially when it involves the setting 
up of an exceedingly bad precedent. 

As I remember the status of Quincy’s 
debt of this class, these extraordinary 
large payments end with the year 1899, 
and therefore will not affect the tax 
rate beyond that time, while to refund 
any part of this debt will at least serve 
to establish the act that a part of this 
debt may be postponed, which to say 
the least is a very unnecessary power 
to be placed in the hands of any legis- 
lative body. 

Is it not much better to complete 
unfortunate payments, trusting 
that this heroic remedy will forever 
make certain that this debt shall 
always be equitably distributed over 
the ten years provided by statute law. 
Reference to your files for 1892 and 
1893 (which are the years in which 
most of those short-loans were made) 
will at once establish the fact, that 
this condition of the city debt is not 
at all accidental or he result of careless 
or hasty legislation, but was arrived 
at after consideration in 
mittee sharp debate in 
Council. Yours truly, 

5. O. MOXON.

the Herald has placed the | 


Charles L. Hammond. 
Mr. Charles L. Hammond assumed 


| his duties as Quincy’s postmaster for 


the next, four or more years this morn- 
ing. Callers at the office would never 
know that there had been any change 
in postmasters, and letters were de- 
livered on time as usual. 

Both Mr. Hammond and Mr. Burke 
were on hand when the office opened 
and the latter gentleman turned over 
the government property to his suc- 
cessor, although he will be at the office 
for a few days finishing up his 
quarterly reports and assisting Mr. 
Hammond to familiarize himself with 
his new duties. 

Mr. Burke has been an efficient and 
painstaking official and leaves the 
office with the good will of all business 
men and citizens, who do business at 
this office. A number of improve- 
ments have been made under Mr. 
Burke in the way of additional mails 
and the extension of the free delivery 
system and in looking back over the 
past four years he can do so with 
pride. Mr. Hammond is almost too 
well known to Quincy citizens to need 
any introdaction, having served this 
district for three years in the Great 
and General court. He comes to the 
office with the determination to main- 
tain the present standard of the office 
and to make all possible improvements 
in the service. 

One of these improvements which 
will come within a few months will be 
the extension of the free delivery 
system to Atlantic and Wollaston, 
which will then include all the 
territory of Quincy. The planas now 
outlined is to make Wollaston a dis- 
tributing point and Atlantic a sub- 
station simillar to West Quincy. This 
plan Postmaster Hammond thinks will 
be in operation by July first, although 
it may be a month later. 

Postmaster Hammond received a 
number of calls this morning from 
his friends, who congratulated him 
upon entering upon the duties of his 
new Office, and wishing him all suc- 


cess. 


AT GITY HALL 


In and Out Among the Officials 
of Quincy. 


The permanent members of the Fire 
Department have been supplied with 
new badges, the design being similar 
to that used by the Boston Fire De- 
partment. Chief Engineer Packard has 
had a steel die made for these badges 
and hereafter all badges for the per- 
manent men will be made from this 
die. 

In shape it maltese 
cross. In the centre ona circle are 
the words ‘‘Fire Department, Quincy”’ 
while on the bottom arm of the cross 
are the letters, ‘*‘Mass.’’ The badge 
worn by the engineer of the steamer 
has the letter *‘E’’ in the centre of the 
circle ; that of the assistant engineer, 
the letters ‘‘ A. E’’; that of the super- 
intendent of the fire alarm, the letters 
**Supt.,’’ and those of the drivers are 
numbered from one upwards. The 
badges are made of German silver. 

At the meeting of the Water Com- 
missioners Thursday evening a number 
of minor extensions were voted, A 
contract for pipe for the year was also 
made at the rate of $19.00 per ton, 
which is about one dollar cheaper than 
last year. The first consignment of 
pipe ordered is for about 200 tons, and 
includes the sixteen-inch pipe that is 
to be used in connecting the Quincy 
system with the Metropolitan supply. 

The joint Committee on Public 
Buildings and streets and the Com- 
mittee on Finance meet tonight. The 
latter committee will consider the 
budget of the Fire Department. 

The Water Commissioners have 
adopted a new rule which requires all 
applicants for service connections to 
deposit the sum of $10 with the City 
Treasurer before work is commenced. 
Also that any amount due the water 
department in addition to this amount 
must be paid before the water will be 
turned on. 

Officer David J. Barry commenced 
today to do day duty in the Centre and 
Officer Nicol takes his place as night 
officer in the Centre. 


Card of Thanks. 


Editors of the Quincy Daily Ledger: 

Would you kindly allow me a small 
space in your valuable columns to ex- 
press my utmost gratitude by thank- 
ing the people of Wollaston Park and 
Norfolk Downs for their kindness 
shown to me and my family by word 
and deed during my affliction in the 
loss of my child under such painful 
and peculiar circumstances. 

Iassure them that their kindness 
will never be forgotten by me or my 
family.

The East Weymouth pole team were 
easily defeated at the rinks Thursday 
night by the New Britian polo team 
by ascore of 4to3. The playing of 
the visitors was fast and steady through- 
out, and although the home team put 
up their usual strong and fast game, 
they were somewhat out-classed. 

Thursday was the closing night of 
fair given by the Ladies’ social circle 
of the M. E. church, East Weymouth. 
An audience of about 250 witnessed the 
production of ‘Old Songs by Young 
People.’ The little ones were dressed 
in costume and presented a very 
pretty picture. All the songs were 
finely rendered and all numbers were 
received with great enthusiasm and 
applause. A quartette composed of 
Mrs. E. E. Orr, Mrs. W. H. Pratt, 
Mr. S. F. Pratt and Mr. Myron Ford 
assisted. And Miss Maud Townsend 
rendered several solos in her usual 
excellent manner. 

The children who took part were: 
Miss Eliza R. Hunt, Miss Edith 
Burrell, Miss Marcia Litchfield, Master 
Ellsworth Garey, Master Chester 
Madan, Master Fred Purchase, Miss 
Blanche Bates. 

The Ladies will realize a tidy sum 
from the fair which will meet the 
current expenses of the church and 
wish to thank all who aided in makiag 
the fair a success. Quite a number of 
out-of-town people were present. 

Mr. C. H. Newton is out again, after 
being confined to the house for a few

noon at about 5 o’clock, from the effect 
of a shock received Monday night. 
Mr. Johnson has been on the staff of 
teachers at the North High since 
February, and was dearly loved by all 
the pupils under his charge. Mr. 
Johnson received his early education 
in the public schools of Boston, going 
from the English High to Amherst 
College, from whence he was graduated 
in the class of 97. Mr. Johnson was 
about 22 years of age, and leaves a

Boston, April 1—Herbert R. Dicker- 
man shot and killed his wife, Malvina, 
at their home in Brookline Thursday 
afternoon, and then killed himself with 
the same weapon, 

Margaret Packard, the mother of Mrs. 
Dickerman, was the only person in the 
house at the time of the shooting, and 
hesitated to enter the room until some 
of the neighbors arrived. The door was 
finally burst open, and Mrs. Dickerman 
was discovered on her knees beside the 
bed with her headin herarm. She was 
quite dead, while a ghastly bullet hole 
in the back of her neck showed too 
plainly how death came. On the floor 
writhed her husband, alive, but un- 
conscious, with the blood pouring from 
a terrible wound in the eye, while tightly 
clasped in his hand was the revolver 
that he had used with such fearful re- 
sults. Dickerman died tn about an hour 
without regaining consciousness, so that 
the circumstances surrounding the last 
few minutes of the life of both will never 
be known. 

Mrs. Dickerman’s mother stated to 
the police that for some time her son-in- 
law had appeared to be dull and morose, 
though for what reason she could not 
explain. The couple had been married 
about five years, and seemed to enjoy life 
to its utmost. Dickerman was some- 
what older than his wife, being 34, while 
she was 26. 

One of the best specialists in Boston on 
mental disorders had been treating 
Dickerman for melancholia for some 
time, and saw him yesterday morning. 
The deceased was treasurer of the Alls- 
ton Baptist church for about eight years, 
and was one of the foremost members of 
the church, as was also Mrs. Dicker- 
man. 


Accused of a Brutal Murder. 

Sanbornville, N. H., April 1.—William 
F. Nason, alias Peter Sharkley of this 
town, who was arrested several weeks 
ago and lodged in the Carrol county fail 
at Ossipee on the charge of larceny, now 
stands charged with murder, and this 
community is witnessing the unravel- 
ling of one of the deepest mysteries in 
eastern New Hampshire for years. 

The alleged murderer has been con- 
fined in jail and prison on _ several 
charges, and received his sentence un- 
der the name of Sharkley. When he was 
arrested a short time ago on the charge 
of stealing a harness, he was given a 
term in the house of correction at Os- 
sipee, and while there he claimed that 
the theft was committed by Frank 
Sherburne of this place. The fact was 
communicated to Sherburne, who made 
the startling statement to County Solici- 
tor Foote that he could convict Sharkley 
of murder, and then told the story of 
the Lovell pond mystery in Ossipee. 

Sherburne claims that he and Shark- 
ley were at a road house when a stranger 
drove into the yard and asked where he 
could procure bait for fishing. The 
stranger bought drinks and displayed a 
large roll of bills. They went out with 
him to the pond, where, as Sherburne 
states, Sharkley hit the stranger witha 
large club. It is alleged that he then 
took an ax and cut him up, cutting the 
flesh from Afterwards the 
alleged murderer procured a_ box, in 
which he placed the bones, and wishing 
to destroy any possible evidence of the 
crime he deposited the box in the Lovell 
pond. Some time after, on Nov. 22, 1891, 
the box was found, and County Solicitor 
Foote attempted to solve the mystery. 
The county expended several thousand 
dollars trying to find a clue to the perpe- 
trator of the crime. When the 
were first discovered it 


his bones. 


bones 
thought 
they represented the remains of Hiram 
Sawtelle, who was murdered by his 
brother, but after that mystery Was 
solved, the Lovell pond matter was 
dropped and no further search made for 
the murderer. 

Nason claims that the crime was com- 
mitted by Sherburne, and also impli- 
cates another Sanbornville man. The 
authorities have never been able to 
learn the name of the man who was 
murdered, but the bones will be produced 
in court. It is thought the man was 
about 40 years of age, was well dressed 
and had a large amount of money in his 
pockets.

One Sailor Lost. 

Provincetown, Mass., April 1—The 
three-masted schooner Willie H. Hig- 
gins, Captain Freeman, went ashore on 
Peaked Hill bar yesterday and ts a total 
loss. Seven of her crew of eight men 
and the wife of the steward were taken 
off by the lifesaving crew, but Gilbert 
Gibbs of Providence, 51 years old, was 
washed overboard and lost just after the 
schooner struck the bar. 

The Higgins was owned in Wellfleet, 
and was bound from Boothbay for New 
York with a cargo ofice. Therun down 
to the cape was made in quick time, but 
just before sighting Highland light it 
shut in thick and blew hard from the 
northeast. When off the whistling buoy 
all the sails were blown from the bolt 
ropes and the schooner was blown 
ashore, going to pieces soon after the 
rescue. 


Kicked and Lashed a Boy. 

Fall River, Mass., April 1.—Andrew 
Carr, a farmer living in the outskirts of 
this city, was fined $100 in the district 
court for assault upon James F. Ryan, 
a ll-year-old boy in hisemploy. He took 
the boy from a Rhode Island institution 
last October. The boy bore the marks 
of kicks and a whip lash. Judge Mc- 
Donough held that the evidence of guilt 
was sufficient, and that the offense was 
magnified by the fact that the boy is an 
orphan. An appeal was taken.

BOSTON OPINION. 


Advertier Enuuoiates the Fixed Pur- 
pose of This Country. 

Boston, April 1.—‘Amid all the uncer- 
tainty in which this Spanish embroglic 
is involved,” The Advertiser notes, “it is 
exceedingly fortunate that one great 
truth is clear as the sunlight and as 
firm as a rock. Cuba mustbefree. * * 
This christian nation is at length aroused 
throughout its length and breadth by 
the highest and purest impulses which 
can impel a people to action, guided by 
sanctified reason. The resolve has at 
length become fixed and imperative that 
‘the torture, slaughter and nameless 
outrages inflicted, systematically, with 
the knowledge and full consent and in 
large degree by the express command 
of Spain upon women, children, old men, 
the sick and other non-combatants 
throughout the island, shall cease, at 
once and forever. The only question is 
as to the means for putting into effect 
this righteous determination.” 

“Personal sympathy on the part of 
certain monarchs of Europe is one thing; 
a united effort to hinder by mediation 
the coming faevitable is another and 
quite a different thing,’’ remarks The 
Globe. “Ingenious demurs and diplo- 
matic evasions, appeal to European 
powers and attempted cajoling of Amer- 
ica—in all these things the trained dip- 
lomats of Spain are adepts among the 
adept When confronted, however, by 
a plain question and unmistakable 
‘United States English,’ even Madrid 
cannot long avoid a definite and con- 
clusive answer.” 

“There can be no equivocation, no 
compromise,” The Journal insists. 
“Spain must give a definite yes or no 
to President McKinley's ultimatum. The 
time for amended propositions has gone 
by. Anything short of an acceptance of 
our demands is tantamount to a refusal 
of it. The American people will tolerate 
no halfway measures. Spain merely 
wastes time in suggesting it, and the 
United States government will not waste 
time in giving it consideration.” 


Bay State Legislature. 

Boston, April 1.—The senate yesterday 
passed the gypsy moth appropriation of 
$180,000 after an extended debate. Other 
important matters acted upon were the 
indorsement of the Lynn sewer construc- 
tion and the receipt of a bill from the 
committee on military affairs relating 
to staff officers. 

The house passed the bill to prevent 
twomen and minors in manufacturing 
establishments from working overtime 
to make up time lost through the stop- 
ping of machinery, but did not finish the 
debate on the bill to place the telephone 
business under the supervision of the 
gas and electric light commissioners. 

The house received from the com- 
mittee on labor a bill which would pro- 
hibit any employe from working more 
than 60 hours a week in a bakery for 
bread, biscuit or cake, or any woman or 
minor under 18 more than 58 hours. The 
bill contains provisions for light and 
clean floors, good drainage and plumb- 
ing. and general healthfulness. 

The judiciary committee reported to 
the house a bill which has been re- 
jected by several iegislatures. It would 
give the unclaimed bodies of persons who 
die in public institutions, and would 
be buried at public expense, to medical 
schools for dissection. 

The committee on labor reported ought 
to pass on the bill authorizing city coun- 
cils and boards of selectmen to grant, at 
their discretion, half holidays, with- 
out loss of pay, to public employes of 
all classes. 

The bill to prohibit the imposition of 
fines and deduction of wages of weavers 
was referred to the next general court. 

The resolve was ordered to a third 
reading providing for the establishment 
of an electric light plant at the state 
prison. 

NEWS IN BRIEF. 

Thomas Sullivan, 17 years old, an er- 

rand boy, was crushed in a freight ele- 


vator in Providence and killed. He was 
in the act of entering the elevator at the 
time. 

The senate yesterday confirmed these 


nominations of postmasters: John E. 
Sawyer, Methuen, Mass.; W. J. Wallace, 
Norwood, Mass.; M. H. Moody, Water- 
bury, Vt. 

Paul Johnson of New London, Conn., 
a dipperman with the Hartford Dredging 
company, was drowned at Westerly, R. 
I. He was riding a bicycle on a narrow 
scow and fell into the water. 

“Tommy” White of Chicago and 
George Dixon of Boston, the ex<aham- 
pion featherweight of the world, fought 
a 20-round draw in Syracuse last night. 
White had the advantage of reach and 
made the most of it. 

Lieutenant Colonel Benedicto, who 
commanded the Spanish forces which 
killed the insurgent leader, Aranguren, 
Was wounded by a revolver shot in the 
back while visiting In Guanabacoa. <A 
colored man who fired the shot succeed- 
ed in escaping. 

The sum of $1,000,000, or so much as 
may be necessary, has been appropriated 
in New York for the purpose of defray- 
ing the expenses of the national guard, 
naval militia and volunteers when called 
into service for the public defense on the 
request or requisition of the presidenit. 

During the thick northeast storm the 
two-masted ‘schooner Break of Day, 
while running into Nantasket roads fora 
harbor, went ashore at noon yesterday 
on Point Allerton. The vessel pounded 
on the beach until hauled off by a tug 
and brought up to the city. In the 
meantime her four men were taken off 
by the crew of the Hull lifesaving sta- 
tion. The schooner was bound from 
Kennebec river to New York with a 
cargo of feldspar.

Bryan For Intervention, 

Lincoln, Neb., April 1—W. J. Bryan 
last night made the following statement 
for the Associated Press in answer to 
the question whether in his judgment 
the time has arrived for the United 
States to intervene in behalf of Cuba 
and bring the war to an end: 

“Yes, the time for intervention has 
arrived. Humanity demands that we 
shall act. Cuba les almost within sigl.t 
of our shores, and the sufferings of het 
people cannot be ignored unless we, asa 
nation, have become so engrossed in 
money making as to be indifference to 
distress. Intertention may be accom- 
panied by danger and expense, but ex- 
istence cannot be separated from re- 
sponsibility, and responsibility some- 
times leads a nation as well as an in- 
dividual into danger. A neighbor must 
sometimes incur danger for a neighbor 
and a friend for a friend.” 


To Bulld Torpedo Boats, 
Rosten, April 1—A special to The 
Clobe from Bristol, R. L., states that it 
is reported on high authority that John 
B. Herreshoff, head of the great ship- 
buildng firm there, has presented to 
Secretary Long plans drawn by his 
brother for 10 torpedo boas destroyers 
at $300,000 each, guaranteed to make a 
speed of not less than 32 knots, the fast- 
est in the world. It is also stated that 
the secretary has practically concluded 
lo let the Herreshoffs build the boats in 
case his recommendation is approved by 
the president, 


Sigsbee’s Personal Opinion. 

Washingtcn, April 1.—Captain Sigs- 
bee and Captain Barker were before the 
senate committee on foreign relations 
yesterday. Both were examined in de- 
tail in regard to the condition and 
strength of our navy in the vicinity of 
Havana, and Captain Sigsbee was ques- 
tioned as to his opinion and knowledge 
of the Maine catastrophe. He did not 
express a conviction in so many words 
that the disaster was the result of 
treachery on the part of the Spanish, 
but after the committee had concluded 
its hearing one of its members expressed 
his belief that the explosion was due to 
that agency. The purpose in taking the 
testimony of these officers is to incor- 
porate their statements in a report th§ 
committee will make in case it finds it 
necessary to report a resolution for in- 
tervention. This report will be in the 
nature of a statement to the country 
justifying the position taken, 


¥ 


CAPTAIN SIGSBEE. 

When the report that Spain had re- 
jected the proposals of the United States 
was brought to the attention of the 
committee, Senator Davis went to the 
senate chamber and asked that there 
should be no adjournment until Mon- 
day as had been contemplated. This 
led to the surmise that in case the report 
of Spain's refusal should be verified, the 
committee might bring in its report to- 
day. It was stated later, however, that 
the committee had not changed its plans 
and that it probably would wait upon 
the president at least until Monday, if 
he should so desire. : 


Feeling In Madrid. 

Madrid, April L—At the conference 
between the premier and the leaders of 
the dissident conservatives, Mr. Sagasta 
unfolded the terms proposed by Minister 
Woodford, and he was councelled to re- 
ject them. The premier replied that 
personally, he was not disposed to accede 
to them. He added that he would like 
to submit the question of the loss of the 
Maine, whieh was not touched upon at 
his conference with General Woodford, 
to the European powers. 


er ———————————————————— 


The feeling in Madrid is pessimisstuc. 
The newspapers are ignorant of the 
actual proposals of the United Stats 
and are urging no surrender. The 
Liberal says: ‘The moment of the de- 
noument (solution of the crisis) has 
drawn much nearer. There may yet 
be found means to delay matters, but 
we doubt it. We ought to apply our- 
selves to obtain a gain of time, or heartily 
devote ourselves to the contrary. In 
our opinion it would be acceptable, even 
preferable, to accept any extreme meas- 
ure which would cut the knot if we failed 
to untie it. The situation ts such that 
by avoiding an external struggle we 
may fall into a still graver one, namely 
an internal upheaval.” 

The Pais characterizes the statement 
regarding the reconcentrados in Cuba 
as a fable, and declares that the United 
States could not intervene without pro- 
voking the protests of Europe, nor 
seize the Maine disaster as a pretext 
for war without scandalizing the world; 
therefore, the government had “adopted 
humanitarianism as a means to cloak 
its sinister designs.” 

The semi-official Globe says it is the 
general opinion that “we are approach- 
ing rapidly the end of the struggle. 
Forwarned agginst evil, we, neverthe- 
less, still hope for the best.” 


Half a Million For Rolief. 

Washington, April 1—Representative 
Wheeler introduced a bill yesterday ap- 
propriating $500,000 to purchase provis- 
fons for the use of the Cuban non- 
combatants, and directing the president 
to cause them to be conveyed at once to 
the starving people and to use as much 
of the military and naval forces as neces- 
sary to attain this purpose. It also di- 
rects the president to notify the Spanish 
governmer* that this proceeding is an 
act of humanity and not intended as an 
act of war. 


May Fewcape Imprisonment. 


Paris, April 1—The court of cassa- 
tion yesterday commenced the hearing 
in the appeal of Emile Zola against the 
sentence of one year’s imprisonment 
and 3000 francs fine imposed upon him 
Feb. 23 after he had been convicted of 
making libelous charges against the con- 
duct of the Esterhazy courtmartial 
which was an outcome of the attempt to 
prove that Alfred Dreyfus, condemned 
to imprisonment for life for betraying 
French military secrets to a foreign 
power, shouid have a new trial. 

Councillor Chambareaud, who was ap- 
pointed to examine the arguments, re- 
ported in favor of Zola’s main plea, 
pamely thai his trial had been irregular 
because the suit was brought by the 
minister for war instead of the president 
of the courtmartial which Mr. Zola had 
libelled. If the court, as is probable, 
accepts Chambareaud’s report, the case 
will not be retried. The condemnation 
will remain, but the sentence will not be 
executed. This result is believed to be 
acceptable to the government, as it is 
hoped it will stop the agitation on the 
subject.

Yet, if anybody will leok at the 
plan of Havana Harbor he will see 
that the place of anchorage of the 
Maine, in respect to that harbor and 
its defence, was practically the same 
as either uf these places I have men- 
tioned respecting Boston Harbor. A 
vessel anchored off of the Mystic

that Spaniards are responsible for

people want peace with this country. 
To destroy an American warship was 
to invite the war they desire above all 
things to avoid. They exaggerate, 
rather than underestimate the extent, 
power, resources and wealth of the 
United States. Nor do the Spanish 
people hate us. Exceptional civilities 
and courtesies extended to me in Spain 
were always explained by grumbling 
English and French friends by the fact 
that Iwas an American. One man’s 
experience is of little valué in sucha 
matter. But I have met a good many 
people who have travelled in Spain 
without finding one whose experience 
differed from fact, the 
average Spaniard is not only friendly 
to, but proud of this country. He 
epitomizes his opinion by saying, *‘It 
is the country Columbus made,’’ And 
he knows quite as much about the 
United States as some of our Senators 
and Representatives know about Spain. 
No Spaniard is so stupid as to make 
statements as ,the Honorable 
from Illinois, -— known in 
Chicago as ‘*Billy Mason’’—made in 
his speech a day or two ago. 
It is for the interest of the Cubans 
to have war between Spain and this 
country ; and knowing something about 
Spain and Cuba, from a good deal of 
reading and a little personal ex- 
perience, I believe, if the Maine was 
blown up it was the act of the in- 
surgents. If our people, instead of 
making up their minds from sepsa-

trouble to read Richard H. Dana’s

Insurgent Sources. 


Washington, April 2.—President Mc- 
Kinley has reached the end of the road 
in his diplomatic negotiations with 
Spain. Whatever action is taken now 
must be taken by congress, and to con- 
gress the whole matter will be referred 
in a message which the president is pre- 
paring. Thi# message will probably be 
issued Monday. It could not goin before 
then, because neither house nor senate 
was in session today. It will hardly | 
be ‘held beyond Monday, because the | 
president was informed yesterday morn- 
ing that congress could not be held be- 
yond that day. 

The members of the foreign relations | 
committee called at the White House 
yesterday morning. The president asked 
them if it wourtd not be possible to keep 
congress patient a week longer, so that 
he might have ample time to prepare an 
elaborate message. He was told that 
this was impossible, but that it might be 
possible to restrain congress until Wed- 
nesday or Thursday. They went to the 
capitol and informed their colleagues of 
what they had said, The proposition

ally decided upon a policy whith 

ms certain to mvolve hostilities. The} 
question is now under earnest consid- 


eration of What should be the particular 
form our policy shail take in bringing 


ing the independence of the island. 
Propositions ranging from a _ simple 
recoguition of Cuban independence toa 
straight-out declaration of war have 
been urged at the capitol, but there is 
hardly a doubt that the majority of con- 
gress await the executive lead before 
taking action and are disposed to adopt 
Mr. McKinley's suggestion on this point. 
It is thought that any of the resolutions 
except possibly simple recognition of in- 
dependence would lead to war. 

There were of course all sorts of rumors 
in circulation, including reports of med- 
iation by some European powers, but 
such a suggestion has not come to this 
government. In response to a direct 
question, Assistant Secretary Day said 
that there had been no offer of media- 
tion by any foreign government. 

Both sides regard the issue as made 
up, with no likelihood of further ne- 
gotiatigns between now and the time 
when the president will submit the 
whole case to congress. ‘Tue United 
States has presented its demand, and 
Spain has given her answer, in substance 
as follows: It proposes to confide the 
preparation for an honorable and stable 
peace to the insular parliament, with- 
out whose concurrénce the Spanish gov- 
ernment would not be able to arrive at 
the final result, being understood that 
the powers reserved by the constitution 
to the central government are not less- 
ened or diminished. As the Cuban 
chambers will not meet until May, the 
Spanish government will not, on its part, 
object to a suspension of hostilities, if 
asked for by the insurgents from the 
general-in-chief, to whom it will be- 
long to determine the duration and the 
condition of the suspension. Thus the 
case stands. From the Spanish stand- 
point, there is the same disposition as 
that shown by the authorities here to 
regard the issue as made up. “The an- 
swer of Spain is looked upon as the lim- 
it of concession which Madrid will grant. 
If there is to be another move, the Span- 
ish government looks to the United 
States to make it. This at least is the 
situation as it presents itself to those 
best informed in Washington. of

Serious Unpreparednes :. 

Washington, April 2.—Senator Mec- 
Millan, who has been in consultation 
with the White House two o: three times 
a day ever since the situation became 
crucial, made the following statement 
yesterday afternoon: “The president is 
flatfooted on the proposition that Spain 
must move out bodily. He also knows 
absolutely that Spain cannot, or at least 
will not, consent to this complete aban- 
donment. That means war. The presi- 
dent squarely faces that. He is not 
ready; he recognizes a certain serious 
unpreparedness. McKinley feels he 
would be guilty of great negligence if 
the deficiencies be not made good before 
we are plunged into war. Had he not 
felt so matters would have been ad- 
vanced to a point where the United 
States could have stopped the coming of 
the torpedo tiotilla. This will manifest 
itself Monday or Tuesday when the 
naval and military committees in the 
house and senate will support the presi- 
dent. The committees will be given in- 
formation which the members should 
know that will have a tendency to sober 
them up a bit. 

“Unless the president has been com- 
pelled to change his mind by circum- 
stances,” continued the senator, “he in- 
tends to follow with an ultimatum. On 
Monday or Tuesday he will submit a 
history of a., steps, as I understood it, 
and will recommend the recognition of 
independence. This will lead to war, but 
not necesSarily at once. The president 
may ask that he be permitted to con- 
duct further negotiations on these lines. 
It will be plain to all that the negotia- 
tions <an ony lead to war, but the men 
who will advocate that the president be 
permitted to continue his correspon- 
dence with Spain will make it plain that 
a little delay is a good thing for us as 
weli as Spain.” 

Autonomists Ask For Peace. 

Washington, April 2.—President Gal- 
vez of the “honorable government of 
Cuba” says in an appeal to President 
McKinley. ‘The honorable government

chairman of the committee was re* 
quested to go back and tell the president 
that it would not do to delay beyond 
Monday, and that unless a message 
Were received by that time congress 
would surely take the matter into its 
own hands. 

It was evident that President McKin- 
ley was indulging what seemed like a 
forlorn hope in thinking that he could 
induce th men to give him the time 
necessary to arrange a peaceful settle- 
ment. 

“If I had 30 days,” he is quoted as 
having said, “I feel that I could make 
an honoradle and peaceful conclusion of 


“se 


the whole matter.” 

But three days are all that the presi- 
dent has now, and it certainly seems un- 
ely 1c he can get any more on what 
is really an expectation that cannot be 
put ir ery tangible shape. He is | 
know! » have received confidential in- | 
forination unofficially, but directly, 
which indicates to his mind that General 


Gomez and the other leaders of the in- 


surgents in the field, who are the real 


Cuban leaders, rather than the men rep- 
resenting them in Washington and New 
York, do not desire armed intervention | 
by the United States, much less a declar- 
ation o ur against Spain, nor even im- 
mediat 1 recognition of the indepen- 
dence ‘uba, although they will be 
ready ! that shortly. 

It is dificult to get at the explanation 
of this fact, as the president's informa- 
tion or is: point is zealously guarded, 
but us nearly as those to whom he has 
talked about it can judge, some attempt 
is on toot to make an agreement be- 
twe: Cuban insurgents and the 
Cuban autonomists, which will bring the 
great jority of the people in Cuba to 
the point of declaring that they desire 
independence, and so will také away 
officially the force of the statement 
made he appeal to the president, 
submitted by representatives of the 
Cuban autonomists, that’ the majority 


of the people in Cuba do not sympathize 
with the insurgents. The president, in 
addition to this, has information which 
induces him to believe that upon sucha 
showing as might 
combination Spain would be, as she in- 
timated in her counter proposition, will- 


ing to ac 


meet on the 4th of May. 

Now that congressmen are fate to face 
with the situation which they have so 
ardently desired, already one sees they 
are iinpressed with their responsibility, 
and a very much more conservative 
spirit was manifested this morning than 
was appanent yesterday. Twenty-four 
hours ago a majority of the members of 

. both houses were clamoring for action 
by the president, and were openly com- 
plaining that unless he took such ac- 
tion by next Monday they would force 
his hand They talked freely of war, 
they declared that war was necessary 
to secure Cuban independence, and that 
they were willing to vote for it unless 
Spain of her own volition gave to the Cu- 
bans the possession of their own island. 
Today they talked much more soberly. 
They are already impressed by all that 
may follow a declaration of war Many 
of them admit today, as they have never 
admitted before, that war with Spain 
will not be a mere naval parade ora 
bloodless encounter. They know it will 
mean the sacrifice of many lives, the 
destruction perhaps of some of our best 
warships, the expenditure of many mil- 
lions of dollars. 
lions of dollars. All these things cause 
them to stop and think. 

While the spirit of congress is still 
loudly for war; while a majority of both 
houses are still heard declaring in favor 
of fighting Spain unless she voluntarily 
yields, it is significant that even those 
men who advocate war express their 
regret that hestilities cannot be averted. 
If on Monday the announcement should 
come from the White House that the 
president had decided to give Spain stil! 
further time it would not create as much 
surprise in Washington as it undoubt- 
edly wil! throughout the country. 


made by such a} 


ept the vote of the Cuban par- | 
liament to be elected next month and to |} 


that Spain has reached the limit of her 
concessions. 

While this brings a halt to the ac- 
tive negotiations which have been in 
progress for the last few days, it does not 
mean that diplomatic relations be- 
tween the two countries are terminated, 
for such a step is the last preliminary 
before an actual state of war. United 
States Minister Woodford remains at 
his post in Madrid, and is said to be en- 
tirely safe from harm. The Spanish 
minister, Polo y Bernabe, also remains 
at his post in Washington. The crit- 
ical condition of affairs within recent 
days has led him and his staff to con- 
sider what disposition of their effects 
would be made in case their position 
there became untenable. The Span- 
ish minister has naturally been the cen- 
ter in the exciting interests of the day. 
He is fully conscious of the gravity of 
the situation and, while expressing hope 
for peace, speaks to his friends of the 
eventualities which may come. To one 
of them he said that he could not be- 
lieve that two nations made up of calm 
and sensible people would rush into un- 
told horrors of war. He added that it 
would be a wicked and cruel crime for 
this result to be precipitated. 

If it be true that the pope is seek- 
ing to exercise pacific influences by in- 
ducing Spain and the insurgents to ac- 
} cept an armistice in Cuba, he has not 
given any instructions of information 
along this line to Mgr. Martinelli? the 
papal delegate at Washington. The lat- 
ter has taken no step toward mediation. 


lt has been reported that one of the 
} archbishops of the Catholic church 
in the course of an informal conversa- 
| tion with high officials here, suggested 


the mediation of the pope. This, how- 


ever, was unofficial, and no authorized 
proposition of any character has come 
} from Rome Furthermore, there is 
| little reason to believe the administra- 
tion would receive with favor any prop- 


osition of this character from a foreign 
source. 


Sharp Words Exchanged,. 
Washington, April 2.—Senator Lodge 
| discovered a strong sentiment in the 
against acquiring Denmark's 
possession in the West Indies, and de- 
cided practically to withdraw the prop- 
osition. He opened the proceedings in 
the secret session yesterday with a gen- 
eral statement concerning the advan- 
tages controlling the islands, He 
argued that this country should own 
them because of contiguity to our own 
|} shores and for strategic purposes, go- 
ing over much of the ground covered in 
his report. 

Sharp words were exchanged in ani- 
mated debate over the policy of bring- 
ing in a proposition liable to divide the 
most all the speakers considered prob- 
able. Many speeches were made on 
this line, and some went so far as to 
intimate that an advantage had been 
taken of the situation to press a prop- 
osition which they considered question- 
able, with the hope that the senate, in 
its patriotic desire to support the pres- 
ident at a critical time, would consider 
the matter favorably now; whereas it 
would not do so ina time of quiet. 

Senators Gorman and Pettigrew were 
among those who took this position. Mr. 
Gorman referred to the recent unani- 
mous action of congress in entrusting the 
vast sum of $50,000,000 to the president 
for his expenditure in maintaining the 
dignity of the country, and said that 
since the days of Washington such con- 
fidence had not been imposed in a chief 
executive of the nation. While this was 
a great trust it carried with it a vast re- 
esponsibility. So far the legislative 
branch of the government had been 
@nited in support of the executive. 
It was evidently impossible to preserve 
this cohesion im support of the prop- 
osition, and he counselled that it not 
be pressed. 

Senator Pettigrew was willing to sup- 
|; port the administration in reasonable 

and just measures in preparation for 

what appeared an inevitable war, but 
| he did not intend because of his loyalty 
in this respect to be induced to give his 
| ahherence toa measure that did not ap-

the confidence of everyone. The home 
rule government of this island, which is 
a Cuban government, protests energet- 
ically against the falsehoods of a part 
of the American press, published with 
the malignant intention of firing pas- 
sions, making it appear that injustice 
and brutal force reign in Cuba and that 
home rule has failed before even the 
colonial parliament has taken its seat, 
and when experience cannot yet tell 
whether the new regime will answer or 
not. There is no good faith in these 
stories. As was said by the immortal 
Washington, ‘honesty is the best pol- 
icy.’ The Quban parliament is about to 
meet, and both the spirit of America and 


the principles of right demand réspect | 


for the will of the majority of the peo- 
ple.” 


The Flying Squadron, 
Washington, April 2.—The fiying 
squadron is to remain in Hampton rogds 
for the presentatleast. This announce- 
ment is made by Secretary Long, and 


sets at rest the reports that a movement 


of the squadron was imminent. The 
secretary believes that the present ren- 
dezvous of the squadron is the most 
available one from which the ships under 

Commodore Schley can operate in carry- 

ing out the purpose for which it was 

formed, that the protection of the 
north Atlantic seaboard. 

The department discussed the ques- 
;tion of ordering the ships to sea, pre- 
sumably, though not officially stated, 
in connection with the approach of the 
Spanish flotilla, which has reached 
Porto Rico. It has been an open secnet 
that the naval authorities have 
garded the approach of the Spanish flo- 
| titta with apprehension. After con- 
sidering the matter, however, it was 
| decided that no orders would be 
sued looking to the movement of the 
squadron. While the decision is under- 
stood to have been based primarily upon 
the fact that it would be unwise to re- 
move the ships from their strategic po- 
sition, yet it is believed that diplomatic 
considerations also had some weight. 
,It was ponted out that the sending of 
the squadron in the direction of the 
West Indies, even through its mis- 
sion were not to intercept the flotilla, 
would be regarded as a hostile act not 
warranted by the present condition of 
affair. It is also understood that it 
was deemed wise not to permit any 
movement of the flying squadron what- 
ever just at present, as public interest 
being so largely centered upon it, such 
& movement would be liable to mis- 
construction and give rise to rumors 
which would tend only to aggravate the 
situation. 

Supplementing the action by the navy 
department in requesting governors of 
states to drill and equip the naval mili- 
tia so as to be ready for any emergency, 
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt has sent 
letters to the governors of those sea- 
coast states not having such organiza- 
tions to take steps looking to the for- 
mation of naval militia so far as is 
possible under the state laws. It is 
hoped that these states will promptly 
Scquiesce in the department's request.

Open Letter to Phelps. ee 


New York, April 2.—-A high authority 
on international law, Charles H. Butler, 
has issued an open letter to ex-Minister 
E. J. Phelps in response to the public 
letter on the Cuban question recently 
written by the latter to ex-Governor 
Morton. Mr. Butler denies the conten- 
tion of Mr. Phelps, that it is a recognized 
canon of international law that nothing 
but a nation’s interest or honor justifies 
interference in the affairs of another 
nation, and quotes authorities to support 
his view. “Grotius,” says Mr. Butler, 
“first admitted that humanity and civi- 
lization were important elements in na- 
tional affairs, and Maine tells us how 
his then novel volume resulted in the 
suspension of Louis XIV’s famous order 
of refusal of quarter to the Dutch, be- 
cause all the powers of that day had ex- 
perienced a realizing sense that war 
must not be necessarily cruel, and that 
they had a right to be heard even if not 
involved. Vattel, in the last century, 


held that a foreign power has @ right to 
guccor an oppressed people who implore 
its assistance when from good reasons 
they take up arms against an oppressor, 
and that ‘it is but an act of justice and 
generosity to assist brave men in the 
defense of their liberties.’ ” 


The Time to Strike. 

Washington, April 2—During the 
house proceedings Friday Mr. Dearmond 
(Dem., Mo.) got the floor for a speech 
“that attracted much attention. He 
called upon the administration to take 
the aggressive. The Maine, he said, had 
been blown up in a harbor supposed to 
be friendly. There is great danger now 
in trusting to-diplomacy rather than to 
our own strong arm. The great ques- 
tion now is to stop the hostile fleet ap- 
proaching our shores. If we are depend- 
ing upon diplomacy it will prove a broken 
reed. The best protection at such a 
not to wait idly, 


dation. He declared that we should 
strike while we had the advantage. 

“Let us protect ourselves,’ advised 
Mr. DeArmond, “by striking before we 
arestricken. Letusnot wait. Wehave 
waited too long. It has seemed to 
me that it is hardly wise for this gov- 
ernment, when the need for immediate 
action with reference to the present 
emergency exists, to provide for a dis- 
tant future when, perhaps, that provis- 
ion will be needless. The danger to be 
provided against is the danger which 
menaces us now. Every hour and every 
minute across the waters of the Atlantic 
is coming that danger. Every hour and 
every minute it is closer to us, and every 
hour and every minute we are less se- 
cure in consequence of it.” 

After several hours of wrangling, dur- 
ing which all sorts of amendments were 
offered and voted down, and many 
speeches were made, a vote was taken 
upon a motion to reduce the number of 
battleships to one and to increase the 
torpedo boats and torpedo boat de- 
stroyers to 12 of each. It was defeated, 
78 to 124. An amendment for 24 torpedo 
boats and destroyers prevailed. 


Two Warships Sail. 

Havana, April 2.—The Spanish war- 
ships Vizcaya, and Almirante Oquendo 
left Havana yesterday afternoon. Im- 
mense crowds gathered on the wharves 
and cheered the ironclads as they 
steamed away. Rear Admiral Lan- 
deras, who relieved Admiral Navarro as 
Spanish naval commander in these 
waters, is on board the Vizcaya. 


Pope Suggests an Armistice. 

Madrid, April 2.—The latest phase of 
the situation is a report that the pope 
is urging Spain to offer an armistice, 
and also that‘his holiness urges the in- 
surgents to accept it. 

The note which was transmitted to 
Washington, in addition to the proposi- 
tlon in regard to an armistice and the 
concentrades, expresses regret “at the 
accident to the Maine in Spanish wa- 
ters,’ and offers to arbitrate the matter.

BOSTON OPINION, 


Why the United States Interferes Ip 
¢ Cuban Affairs. 

Boston, April 2.--Today'’s Post says: 
“The United States stands on a higher 
moral plane than Europe. We act for hu- 
manity, not for selfish aggrandizement. 
Humanity called in vain upon the con- 
certed powers of Europe to intervene 
to stop the Armenian massacres, for 
there was no profit in it. The United 
States looks at a similar situation in 
Cuba in a different light. Should the 
United States intervene in Cuba, it will 
be in behalf of the principle of human 
freedom on which this republic is found- 
ed; it will be in behalf of humanity, se 
long delayed already that hundreds of 
| thousands of innocent pacificos have 
been starved to death gvithin a few 
| hours’ distance of our land of freedom 
and plenty.” 

“President McKinley, like the con- 
| sclentious, christian statesman he is, 
has sought to avert war until all the 
resources of diplomacy were exhausted,” 
says The Journal ! today’sissue. “He 
has consistently adhered to this policy, 
even to the extent of laying himself 
open to misrepresentation. Meanwhile, 
he has bent all the energies of his ad 
ministration to strengthen the national 
defences by land and sea. “sie has hoped 
for peace, but he has deliberately, sys-

able peace, the country can rest assured 
that when the time comes it will not 
find the president shrinking from the 
grim alternative.” 

“The patience of the United States In 
the face of the long accumulation of 
Spanish atrocities within less than 100 
miles of our shores,”” remarks The Ad- 
vertiser, “has excited the astonishment 
of the civilized world, and demonstrated 
at any rate, this one thing, namely, that 
the United States, though conscious of 
possessing well-nigh irresistible strength 
and inexhaustible wealth, is willing to 
go to the very verge of humiliation, if 
not beyond the verge, rather than en- 
gage in war with a feeble and impov- 
erished foreign country. But the price 
which Spam appears to demand that 
we shall pay for the privilege of letting 
her escape the thrashing she so richly 
deserves, is a price beyond the American 
limit. That price is shame and sain, 
‘complicity with guilt, and world-wide 
disgrace. America will not pay it.” 

The Globe observes: ‘“‘That congress 
‘senses’ the situation is sufficiently evi- 
dent by the exciting scenes and con- 
ferences that marked the day. The 
majority of the cabinet understand the 
meaning of Spain’s answer and what 
it implies may be taken for granted. 
That President McKinley realizes at 
length that the resources of diplomacy 
have been exhausted and that the time 
has come or action, seems to be the 
general belief in Washington. It is 
hoped that there will be no reluctance 
at the White House regarding a mak- 
ing known of the president’s mind and 
purpose regarding Cuba to congress on 
Monday very promptly. ‘Will he urge 
the recognition of Cuban independence, 
or something else?”

in those parts much longer, and_ the 

following spring I went over the same 

ground again with a large party. We 

found at the spot where I had left the 

dead kangaroo the skeleton bodies of 

four horses and their, riders. I realized | 

at once what had happened. My pursu- 

ers had followed me, their horses had | 

stumbled over the invisible body of the ; 

dead kangaroo, and they bad all been | 

killed. The fact that the neck of each 

corpse was broken proved my theory. I 

groped among the bones for those of my 

faithful friend and soon found them. I 

laced several of them in my traveling 

case, and when I returned to Buffalo I} 

had this pipe made from two of them.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR, | 


Topic For the Week Beginning April 3, | 
Comment by Rev. S. H. Doyle. 
Topic.—The grace of hospitality. — Gen. 
xviii, 1-10: Heb. xiii, 2. 
The word ‘‘hospitality’’ means love | 
| 
| 
! 
j 


to strangers. The kindness of Christian- 
ity is not to be limited to the followers 
of Christ, *but extended’to all men with 
whom we come in contact. In a sense 
this grace of hospitality needed to be 
emphasized in ancient times more than 
today, and particularly in oriental 
countries, where methods of travel were 
and are slow and tedious and where 
| places of public entertainment were few 
jand far between. Strangers in traveling 
from place to place had to be entertained 
in the homes of the people, and the cor- 
pened of their reception and the boun- | 
tifulness of their entertainment fill us 
with admiration. Though not having to | 
entertain travelers who are strangers in | 
our homes today, we do often come in | 
contact with those whom we do not 
know in the church, in places of busi- | 
ness, in society, and should always ex- 
ercise this grace of hospitality. We 
should treat kindly and considerately } 


all men everywhere. - -

Abraham is seated in his tent door at 
noonday and sees, as he supposes, three 
strange men approaching. He runs to 
meet them, presses them to accept his 
invitation to sojourn with him, that he 
may give them a morsel of bread to 
comfort their hearts before they pass

and between them a sumptuous feast is | 
spread before the strangers. What a} ] 
beautiful picture of simple, cordial, 
bounteous hospitality! And this is only 
one of many similar incidents that

spirit that was manifested.

gers,’’ says the apostle, and adds, refer- 
ring to the experiences of Abraham and 
Lot, ‘‘for thereby some have entertained 
angels unawares.’’ The first verse of 
the chapter says, ‘Let brotherly love 
continue,’ but while we love the breth- 
ren we are not to forget also to love 
strangers and to treat them kindly. The 
stranger as well as the brother must

Good Afternoon. 


President McKinley is not only the 
Chief Execuitve of the 75,000,000 popu- 
lation of the United States, but is Com- 
mander-in-Chief of the army and 
navy of the nation. He is vested with 
more power than any monarch in the 
world, and when at this trying period 
the decision of war or peace is in his 
hands he has the confidence of the 
people that he will continue to lead 
the nation in the right direction and 
carry it safely through to the end. The 
people of this country must continue 
to back him with their entire faith, 
and the hope that he will do all things 
well, anda charity for mistakes, should 
there be any, and believe that if there 
are any they are of the héad and not 
of the heart. We have had ample 
evidence already that President Mc- 
Kinley a and conservative 
chief official, and he has a lieutenant 
in Woodford, the Minister to 
Madrid, who has acquitted himself in 
& most creditable manner.

Our Congressman for Peace. 

Congressman Barrows of this district 
had the following letter in the Wash- 
ington Post of yesterday : 

‘**T find myself classed in your paper 
among members of Congress 
it is the duty of the 
United States to intervene in Cuba, 
but who doubt the practicability of ac- 
anything except by 
I have to say that that state- 
ment does me injustice. I prefer to 
be counted with those who are stand- 
ing behind the President, upholding 
the calm, judicial, honorable course 
he is pursuing. I hope and believe 
that it is possible to settle this issue 
by peaceable means. We have not ex- 
hausted the resources of diplomacy nor 
have we appealed to international 
arbitration, both of which should be 
invoked in this age before nations re- 
sort to war.’’

Senate yesterday, Messrs. | 
a ~? 


The bill was | 


bulding a stone wall across the Elm 
street entrance to the residence of Dr. 
William Everett which when completed 
means the closing to the public of 
what for over two centuries has been 
known as ‘‘Miller’s Stile.’’ People 
must now go through the new Miller 
Stile road. : 

The estate which comprised all the 
land from Washington street to and 
including the residence of Mayor Sears, 
and between Elm and Canal streets, 
was fifteen years ago one vast estate, 
and was known as the Miller estate. 
For many years people coming from 
south of Elm street used to cross this 
property to Canal street, as it made a 
short cut to the centre. A well beaten 
path was soon defined and everybody 
used it as public property. 

There came atime, however, when 
the owners of the ‘estate reacned the 
conclusion that those people crossing 
their property were trespassers and 
they undertook to close up the path. 
The result was that the citizens took 
the matter into court, where it was 
proved that the path had been used by 
the public for a number of years, or 
long enough to give them a right of 
way through the land. 

The outcome of this case was that 
| the owners of the property were obliged 
lat their own expense to construct and 
| maintain a walk and stile which be- 
| came knowm as Miller's stile. About 
| 1880, the Miller estate was seriously 
considered for a park by the town, 
and was favored by many. But the 
opportunity was missed. 

Later the property Was surveyed and 
| put upon the market,and Mr, Frank F. 
Prescott built the first house. The 
estate became dotted with pretty 
modern houses. Yet the old Miller's 
Stile way remained. Last year 
several unsuccessful attempts a new

Hose Company 5 was called out about 
10 o'clock last night for a grass fire on 
the hill at Rock Island. Im the center 
was found a load of carpenter’s waste 
which some one had dumped there and 
set fire to. The fire spread rapidly 
through the dry grass and some of the 
cottages were in danger. That April 
fool joke would have been serious but 
for the quick action of Capt. Morse and 
members of the company.

PIANO 
EXCELLENCE. 

One of the most eminent German musical pro- 
fessors, in a recent visit to this country, after ex- 
amining carefully all the leading makes of pianos, 
before selecting one on which to give a recital, 
pronounced the McPHAIL the sweetest, softest 
toned Piano he had ever played, and claimed that 
McPhail alone had the only perfect and exact 
proportioned scale of any American sysseracepan 

- y of successful piano making may 

a9 Years count for little, perhaps, but the 
universal endorsement and admiration of all the 
leading American and foreign professors of music, 
must mean something. 

IF you contemplate the purchase of a piano, ex- 
amine the McPhail Pianos at this store. Your 
square piano taken in trade. Time payments when 
desired.

the death of Mr. Johnson because of

because of his disease, a stroke of

from his home. He died at Mrs.

claimed that since the rage for wheel-

the number of opium and morphine

that many of the 35,000 victims of the

a spin in the open air rather than by a 
resort to their favorite drug.

THE TATTLER. 


Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer has been 


| #hosen president of the College club of 


Boston. 

Marie Corelli, the novelist, will be the 
guest of Mrs. T. Russell Selfridge, in 
Philadelphia, in June. : 

Marie Geistinger, who is now singing in 
opera comnique in Berlin, bas found it nec- 
essary to publish her certificate of baptism, 
as the papers there have been making her 
oonsiderably older than she actually is. 


Miss Kate Grinrod, a professional nurse 
of Philadelphia, is a full blooded Wyan- 
dotte Indian. She was educated at Car- 
lisle, Pa. Her services are eagerly sought 
by some of the best known families of the 
city. 

Trained nurses are luxuries which 
thrive in the Gould families, Miss Helen 
Gould always keeps one near her, who, ex- 
cept to a few intimate friends, passes as 
her secretary. Miss Gould’s health is never 
of the most robust, and she is obliged to 
guard it carefully. 

Mrs. Westinghouse’s entertainments are 
the wonder of Washington, and all the ap- 
pointments of her establishment are upon 
a scale of almost barbaric magnificence. 
She dines upon nothing less costly than 


| gold and crimson velvet nor wears any- 


thing less splendid than satin and point 
lace. 

Lord Salisbury’s daughter, Gwendolen, 
It is said 
of her that at 14 she was so proficient in 
mathematics that she might have taken a 
degree. She has probably inherited this 
from her distinguished father. She is the 


| authoress of a book on ‘‘The Curse of In- 


tellect.’’ 

The Princess of Chimay has grown tired 
of Cairo, it seems, and has made up her 
mind to visit the south seas. She is said 
to have decided to retire to one of those 
blessed isles and never return to the old 
world, for which she has conceived a vio- 
lent hatred and which she never wishes to 


| see again. 


The Duchess de la Rochefoucauld Dou- 


| deauville, who has just died in Paris, was 


for many years one of the most brilliant 


| figures in Parisian society, and her hus- 


band is a prominent member of the Royal- 
She was a noted beauty in her 


garded as a great privilege. 
Miss Frances E, Willard’s life is to be 


| written by her two confidential friends, 


Lady Henry Somerset and Miss Anna Gor- 
don. By the terms of the will of thé white 
ribbon leader these two women were made 
her literary executors, and all her letters 
and data of a literary character pass into 
their keeping for this purpose. 

Mrs. Charles T. Yerkes keeps, among 
other household possessions, a designer 
who plans all her gowns, to whom almost 
a royal income is paid. The person is both 
an artist and a dressmaker, and if it 
should happen that six months passed 
without Mrs. Yerkes’ visiting Paris all 
the latest modes would be brought to her 
attention and consideration by the design- 
er, who is sent on a trip to Paris for this 


| purpose. 


SOME PEOPLE. 


Some people can give an ugly mule 


| points in kicking. 


Some people who have full purses pos- 
sess empty minds. 

Some people are ‘‘long’’ on religion but 
**short’’ on goodness. 

Some people forget that a broad creed 


| sometimes is very shallow. 


Some people argue about Christianity 
much better than they live it. 
Some people can say yes a thousend 


| times easier than they can no. 


Some people who wear patent leather 
shoes have corns on their feet. 

Some people make Sunday anything but 
a “‘sunny day”’ for their children. 

Some people are like mosquitoes—not 
very dangerous, but tremendously annoy- 
ing. 


Some people who cannot raise a nickel 
know how to raise the wrecked battleship 
Maine. : 

Some people drop a cent into the collec- 
tion plate on Sunday and do a dollar’s 
worth of grumbling at the parson during | 
the week.— Machias Union. 


FITZ-HUGH LEE. 


Consul General Lee bas demonstrated 


Next to the president himself the man 
nearest the center of the American stage 
is Fitz-Hugh Lee.— Utica Press. 

In certain contingencies Consul General 


| Lee may become Major General Lee. He 


is a soldier as well as a diplomat.—New 
York Mail and Express. 

When the present crisis is passed, no 
matter what the outcome may be, whether 
it be war or not, the Union must recognize 
that its strongest defender and most active 
patriot was Fitz-Hugh Lee.—Columbus 
(Ga.) Enquirer-Sun, 

Fitz-Hugh Lee has faced better men than 
the Havana rabble in battle array and 
never weakened. Still, there is a differ- 
ence between fighting an open and brave 
foe and being hounded by a fellow with a 
stiletto or a dynamite bomb. General 
Lee’s real bravery is now doubly conspic- 
uous.— Houston Post. 


CURIOUS CULLINGS. 


Native surgeons of the Zuni tribe of 
Awerican Indians cultivate long nails and 
frequently use them in place of the knife. 

The cat was considered a sacred animal 
by the ancient inhabitants of Heliopolis, 
Egypt. When one of these animals died in 
a private residence, the occupants shaved 
off their eyebrows. 

It is a curious fact that the roots and 
branches of a tree are so alike tm their na- 
ture that if a tree be uprooted and turned 
upside down the underground branches 
will take unto themselves the functions of 
roots, and the exposed roote will in time 
bud and become veritable branches. 

A Michigan man recently sent the fol- 
lowing letter to the superintendent of 
schools: ‘‘Dear sir my boy Johnnie come 
home today with his head broke open by 
biger boy. I wisht you would look into it. 
My boy coges to school to learn brains 
and not to have them knocked out.’’ 


ODD NOTIONS. 


The most ludicrous being in the world is 
he who tries to be unhappy and can’t. 

Some people are so slow that they Irri- 
tate other people to go too fast and fall 
overboard. 

There is not plenty of room at the top, 
and it takes an acrobat to stick on after 
he gets there. 

Success is a swinging door. It has no 
knob, and you can only get on the other 
side by having ‘‘pusb.”’—Detroit Free

{Copyright, 1898, by American Press Asso-| 
ciation.] j 

Of all the colors offered none is so; 
springlike in effect as violet, Violet covers 
allthe purples from deep prune to light 
lilac and lavender. I have seen some hats 
covered with violets in all possible shades. | 
With their green leaves they certainly are | 
beautiful to look at in the show windows, | 
where they are alwayscunningly arranged 
with asoft moss green velvet or plush back 
ground and carpet. They are not always | 
80 satisfactory when on one’s head. Still 
there is nothing more modest, we are told, 
than the violet. I never saw so many put} 
on millinery before. True, three seasons 
ago muffs, collarettes, boas and enormous | 
corsage bouquets were made of these flow- 
ers, but even then such masses were not | 
piled upon hats as now. A poetic beauty | 
was given one hat by having white rose-! 
buds among the violets. Pink ones are} 
often mingled witb them. i 

The purely spring hats are, as I said, | 
covered with masses of flowers, but there 
are other ones intended to wear with suits, 
and these are made to match them. 

One most elegant Easter suit was of | 
mode broadcloth, rich and fine. The skirt | 
was smooth and withouta sign of trim-| 
ming—indeed it looked as if it had grown 
together. ‘The bodice resembled somewhat | 
an eton in the back, but lapped to the left | 
side, where it fastened invisibly. There 
were two lapels and a storm collar. These! 
were faced with snuff brown satin, while 
the edges were finished with inch wide 
straps of the mode cloth stitched along in 
tailor style. At the bottom of the front of 
the waist there was a triangular piece of 
satin scalloped on the upper edge and this, 
too, strap stitched. The sleeves were orna 
mented in the same way. 

aThe hat to wear with this was of mod 
chip, with a high crown of plaited mode 
velvet. There were several large and smal] 
ostrich tips in the two shades—mode and | 
brown. At the back there was a cluster} 
of pale pink roses, and there was a Franch | 
bow tie made of pale pink silk mull with | 
sbirring along the bottom. This was fas- 


are so many, but the shepherdess, the 
amazon and the rough plaited straws will 
proabbly be the favorites for all ordinary 
wear, Some have dark brims and light 
colored crowns. One design has a dented 
brim in dark prune, and a drapery around 
the very low crown made of white rough 
straw made wide like a ribbon. This was 


} Bnique. 


The parasols are quite as novel and the 
styles quite as diversified as the new hats. 


| Plaid taffeta made in curious manner are 


seen everywhere. There are clan and block 
plaids. Some have a sort of star of plaid 
set on toanother part of striped silk. The 


| color combination shown in some of them 


is simply flerce. Others are refined and 
delicate. Chiffon ruchings and puffings 
are sewed over nearly the whole surface of 
some of the new designs. The body of the 
parasol wifl be of a solid color in surah or 
fine taffeta, and this will have a lining in 
lighter quality in some lighter color, and 
this lining extends down in shape of a 
pinked ruffle, sometimes six inches deep. 
The chiffon ruffles and ruches are set 
above this. A bow of satin ribbon to 
match the color is put on the handle and 
sometimes at the top. 

A new idea is to havea natural black 
walnut fastened to the end of the handle. 
There are some new fancies where the 
whole parasol is covered with a fluff of 
soft ruffles of chiffon. One in alternate 
black and white was pretty. Another in 
pale baby blue was lovely. One in pink 
over white was beautiful. Another in 
shaded yellows was gorgeous. A novelty 
comes ina box. There is one frame and 


| several covers. These are arranged so that 
| they can be easily drawn over the frame 


and fastened, and in that way one can | 
have a dozen different umbrellas or para- 
sols. 

There is quite a variety of fancy little 
parasols for children. Fine black lace ruf- 
fles laid over white lisse or chiffon ones 


| are exceedingly refined and tasteful. 


There are some new ideas in veils. One 
is a square of large open meshed black net 
wich square dots an inch apart. At the 
edge isa scalloped outline in the square 
dots set close together. Just above this is 
sewed or woven a narrow gauze black rib- 
bon. This gives a very pretty effect when 
it ts fastened. Another net with smaller 
dots has a pattern like chantilly wrought 
just to outline the face and make it look 
like a picture in aframe. The rest of the 
yeil is to be fastened as usual. Other net 
veils have coin dots in white cn the black 
ground. The old fashioned half circle of 
chantilly is revived and those who can 
afford it will have one of them. White 
veils with black dots are seen, and a few 


THE EQUINE RECRUIT 


HOW GREEN HORSES ARE EDUCAT- 
ED FOR CAVALRY SERVICE. 


They Are First Broken to the Saddle and 
Then Pat Through Various Drills, 
Taught to Smell Gunpowder and Stand 
Saber Practice Without Flinching. 


When a horse is taken from the fleld and 
put into the cavalry, he needs to be drilled 
just as much as the raw recruit who en- 
lists. The animal joins the army as well 
as the man, and he is as much a part of 
the regiment as hisrider. Both have much 
to learn, and it is often a fact that the 
horse learns his lesson better and quicker 
than the man. 

The latter handles himself awkwardly, 
confuses orders, forgets details and in oth- 
er ways arouses the anger of the drill ser- 
geant. The horse is awkward too. The 
unfamiliar sights and sounds frighten 
him, and he naturally dislikes the smell 
of gunpowder. But he soon conquers 
these defects, and when he once learns 
what an omler means he never forgets it. 
The man sometimes does. 

The education of the cavalry horse be- 
gins soon after he arrives at the post. He 
is probably travel sick from the effects of 
his long ride on the cars. The first thing 


SUBDUING A BUCKER. 
to do is to get him in good physical shape 
and make him feel at home amid his new 
surroundings. He is just like a new boy 
at school. He is shy, and everything is 
strange to him. 

After he has been thoroughly rested he 
is taken gut into the paddock some morn- 
ing and given his first lesson in cavalry | 
tactics. The initial instruction is in kneel-| 
ing and lying down. In order to make 
him understand what is required of him a 
simple arrangement of harness is used. 

A surcingle is placed around his belly, 
to which are attached two iron rings, ono} 
underneath and one at the horse’s back. 
Straps containing rings are also placed 
about each fore leg just above the hoof, and} 
another strap is placed about the bead just 
above the The officer in charge is 
supplied with two long ropes, by means

crepe lisse, witha ruille of fine black chan- 
tilly falling partly over it. At the left side 
were two full black ostrich tips and one 
white one, Under the brim at the back 
was a cluster of pale pink blush roses.

The rough straws produce the most strik-

ent colors are used to make the braids, 
and these are coarser than any basket. 
There is generally a fiuted or ruffled 
effect given to the brim by plaited straw, 
and some of them have the crown widen

straw braid sewed ari pper edge. 
The brim being fluted or held in irregular 
dents gives the whole an ornamental ar 
pearance without trimming, but the ad 
tion of flowers and twisted net or other 
drapery is by no means outef place. There 
were some capotes made with fluted fronte

There should be an underdress of taffeta 
of the color best suited to bring out the 
coloring. ‘This skirt must not be too 
heavy and so should not bave too many 
ruffles. One deep Spanish ruffle faced up 
for six inches with the new gauze hairbone 
and pinked or featherboned 
rufile just above the lower edge of this is 
enough. A good way is to have the whole} 
of the taffeta underdress cut en princesse 
and made entirely separate from the out- 
side. This plan makes the organdie dress, 
no matter how many are the ruffles, light 
and delightful for summer. Then in case 
the gown is to be laundered there is no 
trouble to undo it, and the same silk slip 
will do for several gowns. 

Organdie can be washed if done quickly 
with ivory scap and ironed before it gets

| dition. If it gets dry and has to be sprin- 
kled, it is liable to louse color. It should be 
ironed on the wrong side. A little salt or 
alum in the rinsing water will set the col- 
} or. It is best to dry it in the shade.

mercy of his instructor. 

One rope is fastened to the ring on the 
right leg, extends up through the ring on 
the surcingle under the horse’s belly down 
to the ring on the left leg and back again 
through the surcingle ring. The other end 
of the rope is held by the officer. The min- 
ute the horse begins to show a fractious 
spirit a strong pull on the rope brings him 
down on his knees. 

A few repetitions of this, administered 
in such a way as to demonstrate to the 
horse that he is entirely at the mercy of 
the trainer, and thg first lesson is over. 
The horse is taken back to his stable, of- 
ten without the stroke of a whip. 

Next he is taught not to mind a weight 
on his back, and this he learns after he 
realizes that a cavalryman cannot be un- 
seated by any of the bucking tactics at the 
command of his horseship. 

The greatest shox to his nerves is yet 
in store. This is in getting accustomed to 
firearms. While the animal is down on the 
yround the officer take 
it close to his ear. Then in rapid order he 
fires the weapon over his back, under bis 
neck, between his legs, anywhere that an

futile struggles. Not until the horse sinks 
back exhausted, all a-tremble and show- 
ing the whites of his eyes, does the pistol 
practice cease. 

After two or three lessons of this kind 
it is considered safe to mount him with a 
bridle furnished with a curb bit. Up to 
this time the horse has never felt a curb. 
The light snaffle is still retained, and the 
curb bridle is only given a gentle pressure 
at first—just enough to let him know that 
itisthere. Gradually the strength of the 
pull is increased, and with this safeguard 
the horse is taught to stand fire from bis 
rider's pistol or carbine. 

Then comes saber practice, and that is 
another trial tothe horse. Again is he 
thrown tothe ground, aud he probably 
can’t understand why he should have to 
suffer this indignity all over again, for he) 
has learned that lesson very well. But

GETTING USED TO GUNPOWDER. 


TO MANAGE THE OMAHAS. 


George Decker, Chicago's Utility Map, Ac- 
cepts Western League Team's Terms. 
George Decker admitted the other 

night that be will accept the position 

as captain and manager of the Omaba 

Western league baseball club. The de- 

cision is the result of a communication 

recently received from President Hart 
of the Chicago club, which assures him 

a handsome salary. 


The popular Chicago player says that | 


the matter has been so adjusted that no 
National league club will have a claim 
upon his services. He has been in doubt 
previously since the offer was received. 
It was said the salary question was ti 
stumbling block. The Omaha club real- 
ized what a great card he would be and 
made its proposition such that he now 
feels it is a splendid chance, especially 
as Everitt is a fixture at the initial bag. 
Decker’s good services will be of in- 


estimable value to the new Western | 


league organization. He certainly will 
go with the best wishes of the Chicago 
players and public. Decker is known 
for his unostentatious manner, which 
secured for him the nickname of ‘*Gen- 
tleman George.’? He will undoubtedly 
be one of the strongest batters in the 


minor league. He hit .307 last year, al- | 
though not playing regularly in one po- | 


sition. —Chicago Times-Herald.

It is claimed that Matty Bergen is far 


from being a back number, and it is said | 


that be has secured a contract with a 
prominent Brooklyn turfman. 

If enough entries can be secured, the 
management of the Queen City course, 
at Newport, Ky., will arrange a gentle- 
men’s jockey race for amateur riders.

Harvard's Athletic Expenses. 
According to the annual report of 
W. Bingham, 
Jr., to the Harvard athletic committee, 
the total expenditure in all branches of 
athletics for the year ending Aug. 30, 
1897, was $52,773.49. The receipts for 
the year amounted to $55,053.20. The 
only sports which netted profits were 
football and baseball. In football the 
expenses were $11,322.80 and the re- 
ceipts $31,413.42. The baseball team 
cost $7,750.57 and took in $10,136.05. 
As usual, the crew incurred the heaviest 
item of loss, showing an expenditure 
of $7,908.93 and receipts of $4,015.11. 
The track athletic team earned only

E QUARTER’S TRADE. 


All Branches, 


Jommercial Mortality Small- 
est For Four Years. 


Business In the East Somewhat Affected by 
the Cuban Imbroglio. 


New York, April 2.—Bradstreet's says 
this week: A week of rather quieter 
general trade and of smaller distribu- 
tion, due to easily explainable causes, 
closes a quarter which has been emin- 
ently satisfactory tomnearly all branches 
of trade and productive of an unpre- 
cedented business in many favored 
lines. The heavy foreign demand for 
our products, particularly agricultural 
staples, and the active domestic move- 
ment in most lines are evidenced by the 
heavily increased bank clearings re- 
ported for the quarter, and the effeet on 
the commercial mortality is favorably 
reflected in a total, for the first three 


months of 1898, of failures and of lia- | 
| bilities involved smaller than in the cor- 


responding period for four years past. 
Current demand and distribution at 


| the east have been interfered with by 
| the uncertainties growing out of our 
| unsettled foreign 
| been particularly manifest in the more 


relations. This has 


pronounced indisposition on the part of 


| buyers to anticipate future wants, and 
| 8ome cancellations of orders for woolen 


goods are attributed directly to this 
Evidence is not lacking, how- 


industry growing out of tariff 
changes last year is responsible in some 
for the unreadiness of manu- 
facturers to go ahead as confidently 
now as they didayearago. Little orno 


| improvement is found in the coarse cot- 
; ton goods trade, and print cloths have 


marked a new low record in quotations 
of 2 1-16 cents for regular goods. 

The price situation-on the whole is 
quite encouraging this week, oats, flour, 
print cloths and hides being the most 
prominent among the decreases men- 
tioned, while wheat, corn, lard, coffee, 
cotton and sugar are higher and the list 
of staples unchanged in price appears 
the most numerous. 

Failure records, as intimated, bear 
Witness to the satisfactory conditions 
ruling in commercial lines this year in 
a total for the quarter of 3515 embarrass- 
ments, involving liabilities of $36,198,- 
C00, a decrease in number from a year 
ago of 13 percent and from two years 
ago of 22 percent, while as regards lia- 
bilities there is a falling from last year 
of 30 percent and as compared with 1896 
of over 42 percent. The total assets are 
$19,503,993, about 54 percent of the lia- 
bilities, or only a little above the normal. 


Both as regards number, liabilities and | 


assets involved, in fact the first quarter 
jot this year makes a more favorable 
comparison than the corresponding 


| three months for at least four years past. 
It is necessary to go back to 1893 to find | 


a total number of failures smaller than 
those reported this year, 


from that year. 
An exception to the generally satisfac- 


} tory report is found in the eastern group, 


which, influenced by a larger number of 
failures in Massachusetts and heavy 
liabilities of a few large concerns, shows 
a total number and 
heavier than for at least four years past. 
A few large failures 


than a year ago. The failures in New 
England during the past three months 
liabilities, $9,849,518; as- 

5,299,896, against 608 failures; lia- 
bilities of $5,165,504, and assets of $2,062,- 
472 in the first quarter of 1897. 

Gains in bank clearings for the month 
of March are less pronounced than toey 
were in the preceding month, but ex- 
ceed the gains shown in all but three 
other months since the present improved 
conditions first manifested themselves. 
Special telegraphed reports to 
street’s show the total clearings for the 
month just closed to have aggregated 


| $5,626,000,000, a gain of 34 percent overa 


year ago, 6 percent smaller than the 
January total, the heaviest ever known. 

For the first quarter of the present 
calendar year the total clearings aggre- 
gate $17,153,000,000, 38.9 percent larger 
than the corresponding period a year 
ago, in which there was a decrease 
shown of 3.5 percent over the year 1896. 
For the three months’ period the middle 
states group shows the heaviest gain, 
47.6 percent, other heavy increases being 
the gain of 35 percent each by the far

Bay State Legislature. 

Boston, April 1.—The bill to pjace the 
telephone companies under the seuper- 
vision of the gas and electric light com- 
mission was ordered to a third reading 
in the house yesterday by a vote of 
76 to 61, with 32 pairs. Three mem- 
bers were excused from voting, under 
a house rule which says that “‘no mem- 
ber shall vote upon any question where 
his private right is immediately con- 
eerned distinct from the public interest.” 
These three members were Dean of Mal- 
den, Carleton of Haverhill and Codman 
of Brookline. They are stockholders in 
telephone companies. 

Senator Folsom had an amendment 
adopted to a street railway bill allowing 
them to carry snow, ice, dirt and street 
sweepings upon its tracks. 

The bill providing for the infliction of 
the death penalty by electrocution was 
passed to a second reading, without dis- 
cussion, and is apparently going through 
without dissent.

BOSTON DOINGS. 

| Brew of @ Capsized Craft Picked Up by 
a Pilot Boar. 

| Boston, April 2—Pilot McLean reports 
that a@ pilot boat picked up the captain, 
mate, steward and three men compris- 
ing the crew of the schooner Genius, 
Captain Chute, which was bound from 
Bridgetown, N. S., for this port witha 
cargo of 14,000 feet of piling. The men 
were drifting about in an open boat 
about 18 miles east of Boston light. The 
|; Vessel had sprung aleak during a storm 
end filled with water. Later she cap- 
tized, the crew just having time to 
launch a boat. The men suffered con- 
siderably from the cold until they were 
rescued. An effort will be made to find 
| the capsized schooner and tow her to 
this port. 

In the case of William Thompson vs. 
the Lowell, Lawrence and Haverhill 
Street Railway company the full bench 
of the supreme court over-rules the de- 
fendant’s exceptions, and the result is 
that the defendant must pay the plain- 
tiff the verdict of $5045. The suit was 
brought for damages for the loss of an 
eye consequent upon an exhibitien of 
markmanship by a ‘‘man bern without 
| hands” in a grove owned by the de- 
fendant. The plaintiff was a spectator 
at the exhibition, having been brought 
there on one of the defendant's cars. 

The trout fishing season in Massachu-

| The board of directors of the Boston | 


Merchants association has adopted a 
resolution upon the impending crisis in 
which the present conflict in Cuba is 
deprecated and the “dignified, 
humane and patriotic policy of the pres- 
ident of the United States in regard to 
| the affairs of Cuba” heartily endorsed. 

| The retail price for milk will be the 


Same during the following six months | 


in Boston as during the summer sea- 
son last year. The six months’ period 
of summer prices begins on April 1 of 
each year, and.the producers and con- 
tractors usually come to terms before 
that time, but this year they have failed. 
The union asked full prices on anamount 
of surplus equal to 10 percent of the 
entire sale. The contractors offered 
to pay for21-2 percent.. The union came 
down to five percent. This is what the 
contractors paid last year, and this 
is the situation today. Itis settled that 
the contractors shall pay the butter 
value for milk they cannot sell. 

The line officers of the First Regiment 
last night elected Major Charles B. 
Woodman of Fall River to be lieutenant 
colonel, vice Charles O. Hovey, resigned. 
Major Woodman hasaccepted. Colonel 
James A. Frye of Governor Wolcott's 
| staff was chosen to fill the vacancy. 


Had Fifteen Dellars In His Pockets. 

| Providence, April 2.—A daring holdup 
| and robbery was perpetrated last night 
| about 8 o'clock on the tracks of the con- 
| solidated road just south of Auburn. 
The victim was Adolphus 


the Pacific iron works of Bridgeport. 
The robbers were two men, whose ap- 
pearance gave no indication that they 
were tramps. Mr. Savage wasin Provi- 
dence on business and he had gone down 
to Hillsgrove during the afternoon. He 
fatended returning to the city in the 
| early evening, but, missing his train, 
Started to walk to Auburn down the 
tracks, a distance of about four miles. 
He had passed the Norwood station 
and was about half way between that 
and the bridge over the Pawtuxet river 
| when, glancing backwards, he noticed 


} an instant 
him and overpowered him. 


later the men sprang upon 
With a re- 


were pinioned behind him and his peck- 
ets were ransacked. So far as he can 
recollect he had about $15. All was 
taken and then the robbers left him, 
going toward! Pawtuxet from the rail- 
road. 


Duel to the Death, 

Waco, Tex., April 2.—W. C. Brann, ed- 
|ilor of The Iconoclast, and Captain M. 
|'T. Davis met yesterday afternoon and, 
efter exchanging a few words, began 
firing at each other with revolvers. 
| Brann was shot in the lung and both feet. 
Ivavis was shot through the lung and 
both arms? The difficulty grew out of 
the Brann-Baylor university feud of 
| last year, and political feeling contrib- 
uted to this bad blood. 

Trouble had been expected, and when 
they met they lost no time in getting 
out their weapons. About 10 seconds 
were occupied in the shooting, at the 
end of which Brann and Davis lay 
bleeding. W. H. Ward, Brann’s bus- 
iness partner, was shot through the 
right hand. A wild bullet hit Motorman 
Kennedy in the knee. Another wild 
bullet hit Eugene Kepler in the foot. 

Brann lingered until 1:55 a.m. Davis 
is regarded as mortally wounded, as he 
is bleeding internally. 


NEWS IN BRIEF. 


In the case of the three leaders of the 
proposed invasion of Texas from Mexico 
the court has decided that there was 
sufficient evidence to hold them for vio- 
lation of the laws on neutrality. 

The central Cuban relief committee 
sent from New York yesterday 90,000 
pounds of meal, 10,000 pounds of clothing 
and 62,000 pounds of assorted provisions 
and medicines, to be delivered at Sagua 
la Grande: 

Ellen Flynn, aged 60, was fatally 
burned at her home in Holyoke, Mass., 
last night. Passers-by saw flames in 
the woman’s room and, rushing in, found 
her sitting in a chair enveloped in flames, 
caused by a spark from a pipe. 

Relations between Nicaragua and 
Costa Rica are greatly strained. War 
is probable, because it is reported that 
Costa Rica demands an equal privilege 
with Nicaragua in the navigation of the 
river San Juan and the canal! route. 

The Pingree corporation bill passed the 
Michigan house with only three dissent- 
ing votes. The only amendment of im- 
portance was that to which the Pingree 
people agreed, making the assessors elec- 
tive, instead of appointive by the gov- 
ernor.

In buiedinga home you must first choose | 
‘a location, and, having selected one that 
is your ideal, you will find you have half 
, the battle fought. You will often see a

| poses to build in his pocket. He is looking 
fora favorable site. He may own other 
property, but ig may not be suited to the 
special requirements of his particular ideas 
of ahome. Therefore he does not build 
and looks elsewhere for his site. He isa 
restless sort of a home seeker. He is not 
sure what he really does want. He has 
procured plans and elevations of a build- 
ing which may be perfect, may look hand- 
some and be well adapted to the locality | 
where it is built. But where may we find | 
the same peculiar conditions that exist 
where this house stands? We might travel 
the entire universe and not find a locality 
the same. Then when a man acts this 
way he is simply antagonizing himself. 
| A house should always be planned accord- 
ing to its location, and oftentimes where 
you would deem it an impossibility you 
| can erect a home that will be a surprise to 
| you as Well as to your neighbors. If you 
will only stop and carefully consider the 
surrounding scenery and endeavor to blend 
the architecture of your home with that

similar home, which is advantageous to

This design shows what can be accom- 
plished in this line, being a house that 
with slight changes is adaptable to many | 
localities. It consists of parlor, dining 
room, den, hall and spacious kitchen, a 
back hall for servants’ usé, two pantries | 
and a pleasant veranda, and there are four 
chambers and a servants’ bedroom, each | 
room detachable and arranged to use all | 
available space. There are also a bathroom | 
and a« large linen «. set, which every house 
should possess. Onc f the front chambers

Bicycle Riding and the Size of the Feet, 

‘*Bicycles interfere with the shoe 
business in more ways than one,’’ ex- 
plained a well known rider of the silent 
steed. ‘‘It is proved beyond all doubt 
that riding a wheel will in one season 
cause the foot to grow 1 to 144 inches 
larger. Hundreds of bicycle riders have 
ascertained this, With men it does not 
in 
very rare cases, men do not care as 
much for the size of their feet as they 
do for comfort. With the ladies, how- 
ever, it is quite another thing. They 
wear bicycle shoes for riding, but find 


|to their sorrow that in a season or so 


they canhot wear the size shoe that they 
wore before they developed heir feet. 
Cycling not only tends to lengthen the 
foot, but also to widen it. The shops 
manufacturers, as @ result, turn out 
many shoes for ladies of larger sizes 
than formerly. It is the old story com- 
ing true in another way. Those who 
dance must pay the, fiddler. I don’t 
know that it does a nice looking girl 
any harm to widen or lengthen her 
boot a little, but she thinks it does. 
Still, there’s no getting away from it, 
and she has to grin and stand the conse- 
quences, or at least stand on the conse- 
quences. ’’— Washington Star.

After another summer of laurels and

of the play will be wearing upon the

tumes while telling her of it. He learns 
of his rival, Tomasso Detroito, an Ital-

for bicycle championship and qualified

to marry the young woman. During 
the race there is a little elbowing in

Bald slides triumphantly across the

New Tires Are Needed. 

There are a lot of riders who come 
here regularly with tire troubles, either 
punctures, leaky valves or other things. 
I cannot understand why they do not 
discover that what they need is a new 
pair of tires. It is a fact that I get many 
tires not worth fixing. Many riders 
think a pair of tires should last them 
forever, when the truth is it takesa 
mighty good pair to last two seasons. 
The rubber wears, the fabric loses its 
strength and tension and the whole tire

flooring; walls externally to have heavy 
sheathing under shingles, and both floors 
to be warmed to 60 degrees in zero weath- 
er by a modern hot water heater placed 
in the basement; large fireplaces to be 
built in dining room and den, adding 
cheerfulness and comfort, and to be used 
auxiliary to the radiators. On second floor 
we also have a fireplace in central cham- 
ber, where it is often found extremely 
handy and delightful in case of sickness. 

The width of this building will be 28 
feet, the length 50 feet. We have the serv- 
ants’ bedroom in rear of house, easily 
reached from the back stairs without trou- 
bling or annoying the rest of the house- 
hold. There is besides a very fine veranda 
on first floor, with a balcony opening from 
the guest chamber, which is a very pleas- 
ant feature. You will notice a vestibule 
on the first floor built in, thereby doing 
away with the need of applying unseemly 
portable vestibules on front veranda.

Soldiers Awheel In Belgium. 

Military cyclists will have a busy 
time at the next great maneuvers at 
Brussels, to occur very shortly. A com- 
pany of 120 men has been formed and 
is mounted on folding bicycles of Bel- 
gian make, as mounted infantry. Every 
chief of corps, general, colonel, major 
er captain will have under his orders a 
certain number of cycling dispatch car- 
riers. Doctors, surgeons and adminis- 
tration officers are allowed choice be- 
tween riding a bicycle ora horse, As 
this is the first time in Europe that 
such a privilege is given to military 
cyclists the result of the maneuvers will 
be watched with very much interest by 
all of the neighboring countries. —Ex-

If every man could live an out-door li? 
passing his time with gun and Genin 
and canoe, there sick yo less illness in 
the world. Unfortunately, the demands of 
modern civilization will permit very few 
men to live this ideal, healthful life. 

_ Many men have to pass the day shut up 
in offices and stores, and the nights in close 
apartments in crowded cities. They get 
little out-door exercise. One of the results 
of this unhealthy, sedentary living is the 
awful prevalence of that dread disease— 
consumption, QOne-sixth of all the deaths 
each year are due to this relentless enemy, 
Formerly physicians pronounced this dis- 
ease@incurable. It is now generally known 
that there is a marvelous medicine that for 
the past thirty years has been curing con- 
sumption almost without a failure. It is 
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It 
cures 98 per cent. of all cases of consump- 
tion, bronchitis, asthma, laryngitis and 
other diseases of the air-passages. It is the 
great re-builder. It tears down, carries off 
and excretes old, inert tissues and replaces 
them with the firm tissues of health. It 
restores the lost appetite and makes the 
digestion perfect. 

‘*Four years ago I had an attack of grip that 
left my throat and lungs in a bad condition,” 
writes Mrs. Mary Hartman, of 300 Harker St., 
Mansfield, Ohio. ‘* The doctor said I had dis- 
ease of the throat and bronchial tubes. I con- 
tinued to grow worse. I had pain in the w 
part of my chest and a severe cough, which 
grew worse at night and in the morning, with 
jeavy expectoration. I would cough up mat- 
tery scabs, after which I would experience a 
burning and smarting sensation in my throat. 
I took the doctor's prescriptions without num- 
ber, but they did me no good. I took sixteen 
bottles of cod liver oil and was as bad as ever. I 
then took five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden 
Medical Discovery, and three of the ‘ Pellets.’ 
I began to improve in every way and now ens 
joy good health and have taken no medicine for 
over six months."

THE BEEHIVE. 


No matter w ‘hens been: are moved they 
should be fastened up sc that none can 
escape, 

Do not neglect to look for the queens or 
brood when opening the hives in the 
spring. 

One decided advantage of the Italians is 
their ability to defend themselves against 
enemies. 

Italian bees work earlier in the morn- 
ing and later in the night than common 
black bees. 

To a very considerable extent spring 
dwindling is the result of poor winter 
management. 

Hives should be located in good season 
in whatever particular location they are 
expected to occupy in readiness to receive 
the swarms as they come off. 

When the weather gets warm enough 
for the bees to tly without becoming chill- 
ed, give them finely ground cornmeal, 
wheat or the finer parts of sifted ground 
oats. 

If any colonies are found toa weak in 
the spring to take careof a frame of brood, 
give them bees from the strongest col- 
onies, but be careful not to give them the 
queen. 

Do not open the hives to excite the bees 
when it is too cold for them to fly. The 
best time to remove surplus for brood 
frames is after two or three days of good 
honey weather. 

If in the spring any of the colonies are 
found without queens, give them a frame 
of brood. Do not allow the volonies to 
rear queens until drones are hatched to in- 
sure mating.—St. Louis Republic.

Castle Square Theatre. 


The old time popularity of William Gillette’s 
version of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s story 
“Esmeralda” will make the production of this 
play at the Castle Square Theatre next week 
au attractive event. The original production 
was one of the great successes in New York 
where it held the stage an entire year about 
twenty years ago. Its story deals with the 
experiences of Planter Rogers, of North 
Carolina, whose sudden prosperity brings about 
domestic difficulties which are, however, dis- 
pelledy and the family re-united in the final 
scenes of the play. The cast announced is as 
follows: Elbert Rogers, Mr. Horace Lewis; 
Lydia Ann, Miss Lizzie Morgan; Esmeralda, 
Miss Mary Saunders; Dave Hurdy, J. H. 
Gilmour; Estabrook, Tony Cummings; Jack 
Desmond, Charles McKay; Nora Desmond, 
Miss Maude Odell; Kate Desmond, Miss Lucy 
Spinney ; Marquis de Montessin, N. H. Fowler; 
George Drew, J. L. Seeley. At the Artist’s 
matinee on Tuesday, the souvenir for all adult 
patrons will be a portrait of Miss Maude Odell, 
and following ‘* Esmeralda” on Monday, April 
llth there will be a revival of “‘ The Prisoner 
of Zenda.” 


—Seven million bushels of wheat 
bought by Joseph Leiter have been 
shipped, and contracts made will run 
the total to 10,000,000. The closing of 
new contracts with the railroads for 
the movement of 1,560,000 bushels addi- 
tional to the seaboard, shows the vast- 
ness of Mr. J[eiter’s operations

the Senate Committee on For-

the Maine Tragedy. 


London, April 4.—The Madrid corre- 
Fpondent of a local paper was accord- 
ed an interview Sunday with the Span- 
ish premier, Mr. Sagasta, on the situa- 
tion as he looks upon it. The statesman 
considers that since he took office in Oc- 
tober last he has done everything pos- 
sible to satisfy the Cubans and to pre- 
serve good relations with the United 
States. Consequently he feels justified 
{n contending that no responsibility for 
the present crisis, should it lead toa 
However, 
he does not believe that the last Spanish 
ynemorandum closes the door to further 
negotiations. Those who had conducted 
them, he said, had on both sides shown 
a disposition to promote cordial rela- 
tions; and he only apprehended trouble 
from the pressure of the jingoes on the 
executive in Washington. The premier 
proceeded to say that his government 
iad addressed a memorandum to the 
Luropean powers, but had not officially 
aken steps to solicit their intervention. 


SENOR SAGASTA, 


‘In our negotiations with the United 
States,” continued Premier Sagasta,” we 
have used friendly and conciliatory 
language in explaining our views. Re- 
specting the matters in dispute with re- 
gard to the Maine disaster, we said we 
considered the question to be one for 
diplomatic negotiation, and that if we 
and the United States found it impossible 
to come to an understanding on the con- 
flicting opinions of the American and 
Spanish commissions as to the cause of 
the disaster, the matter then ought to 
be submitted to technical experts and to 
the arbitration of a naval or other 
power, who might be selected by mutual 
agreement between the two govern- 
ments, 

“On the second point we were able to 
inform United States Minister Wood- 
ford that Governor General Blanco had 
issued a proclamation authorizing the 
return of the reconcentrados to their 
homes, and that the Spanish government 
had sent £120,000 to the relief of the dis- 
tressed Cubans and would devote to the 
same object all the proceeds of relief in 
kind and money, amounting to £200,000 
($1,000,000), which had been sent by 
Spanish residents in Mexico. These 
measures are supplemented by the as- 
sistance already given by the Cuban 
autonomist government. We have never 
objected to relief being also sent by the 
United States on condition that it did 
not have an official character or bear 
the appearance of intervention.” 

“We did not object on principle to an 
armistice for the Cuban insurgents. We 
are, however, of opinion that it does not 
behoove Spain to take the initiative, and 
that a suspension of hostilities ought to 
be asked for by the insurgents. We 
suggested that the United States govern- 
ment might, if so inclined, exercise its 
influence with the insurgents to induce 
them to apply for an armistice, with a 
view to further the ends of peace, on the 
understanding, however, that the armis- 
tice would be destined to lead to the sub- 
mission of the insurgents to the new au- 
tonomous regime.” 


HOPING F :R PEACE. 
President Looking to Pres uve Upon © 1- 
gress to Prevent Precipitancy. 


Washington, April 4.—The president 
etill hopes for peace. He counts much 
upon the appeals which are pouring into 
Wasbington. urging congress not to 


MASS., MONDAY, 


Pr eee eee 


precipitate War and to support the pres- 
ident’s policy. These letters and tele- 
frams come to congressmen in response 
to the telegrams which have been sent 
out by the friends of the administration. 
Some of them are rated at their real 
value by the men who have read them, 
and they count only for what they are 
worth. 

There is a feeling of resentment among 
Biembers of congress that such meas- 
ures should be employed to swerve them 
from the course which they believe is 
dictated by motives of patriotism and 
humanity. Comgressmen are inclined 
rather to put faith in the spontaneous 
appeals which have been coming to 
them from men of every calling, poor 
as well as rich, from women, from 
clergymen and from religious societies, 
begging, above all, to let nothing stand 
im the way of a vigorous assertion of 
robust Americanism aud for a speedy 
calling of the Spanish to account for her 
unregretted assassination of American 
seamen and for her atrocities in Cuba. 
These messages are couched in lan- 
guage which shows utmistakably that 
they spring from the hearts of the péo- 
ple who sent them, anc who are not ac- 
tuated by the “fear and greed” which 
a Massachusetts writer once said were 
the controlling motives of mankind. 
They are believed in congress to repre- 
gent truly the feelings of the plain peo- 
ple, and they outweigh with congress- 
inen—and it is believed with the presi- 
dent—all other pressure, inspired from 
Whatever source. 

Congress is in no mood to listen to 
a plea for an avoidance of war, and 
both houses are determined to settle with 
Spain now, not only. the question of 
Cuban independence, but for the blow- 
ing up of the Maine as well, The presi- 
dent knows that the desire for action is 
so strong that a plea for peace, if un- 
accompanied by a recommendation for 
legislation in case there should be a real 
justification for war, would be de- 
nounced and successfully assailed by 
both houses, He is prepared to meet 
that sentiment by making recommen- 
dations for prompt anid vigorous action 
in case a proper casus belli should be 
presented. The president does not think 
it is found in the report of the naval 
court of inquiry, because he will tell 
congress that he has other plans for 
making Spain reply a fitting manner 
to that report. y plans of pro- 
cedure have been urged upon the pres- 
ident by those who are as anxious as 
he to avoid war, but who are more in 
sympathy with the overwhelming sen- 
timent jn congress in favor of forcing 
a@ summary settlement with Spain. 
Congressmen, as a rule, tell him that the 
time for'talking peace has gone. They 
do not agree with him that a sufficient 
cause for war has not yet been found, 
but they have not yet teld him that they 
will rt his leadership should he con- 
tinue to recommend peace. They may 
do this, however, when his message is 
read to them. 

The president resents the attitude of 
convress in driving hiss on. He said to 
one of his callers that he objected to 
congress holding the watch over him; 
that he should be permitted to take all 
the time he needed. This member of 
congress bristled up at this remark and 
replied with some spirit: “‘We are not 
holding the watch over you, Mr. Presi- 
dent, but if on Tuesday there is no mes- 
sage from you it will not be necessary to 
keep any further account of time.” 

Spain has not made new efforts to pre- 
vent hostilities, and yet the 
tion still clings to the hope 
the mext 24 hours have passed diplo- 
matic negotiations will be reopened 
on the initiative of Spre'n. A hint to 
that effect was dropped by a member of 
the Spanish legation. When asked if 
any new proposals had been submitted 
to this government hesaid: ‘None have 
béen made as yet.” The peculiar word- 
ing of his reply suggested that proposals 
might be under consideration, and he 
was asked if he looked for any fresh 
communicaticns from his government 
during the course of the day. “I am 
unable to say what may come from min- 
ute to minute,’ was his somewhat am- 
biguous reply. 

There is still a divergence of opinion 
as to what the president will recommend 
in his message; indeed there seems to 
be still a question as to Whether Mr. Mc- 
Kinley will make specific recommenda- 
tions. Some of his most intimate 
friends, however, assert emphatically 
that his recommendation will be spe- 
cific and vigorous, and such that his 
party and the country will willingly 
follow where he points the way. One 
of these said that the president, In his 
strong desire for peace and in his earnest 
hope that war might be averted, was 
yielding somewhat to the sentiment of 
the leaders of his party and the country. 
He had not given up hope yet that hos- 
tilities may be avoided. There are 
those who believe the president has not 
yet made up his mind as to the exact 
course he will pursue, and there seems 
to be a question as to whether the con- 
sular reports and the diplomatic corre- 
spondence are to be transmitted with the 
message. 

The Republicans of the house who 
have been insisting upon prompt action 
will hold another meeting While many 
of them are now in favor of giving the

lican votes in the house, with the Demo- 
cratic and Populist votes, would be suf- 
ficient to act. It may be pretty con- 
fidently asserted that all the Repub- 
licans with possible exceptions which 
could be counted on the fingers of the 
hand can be controlled until Wednes- 
day. After that what might happen if 
the president asks for further delay is 
problematical. Mr. Bromwell of Ohio, 
for instance, who says he hopes he will 
not be obliged to part company with the 
president, will vote with the Democrats 
if necessary to overrule the speaker after 
Wednesday. Mr. Grout (Rep., Vt.) 
said that while some of the members of 
the house were very impatient, he 
thought they would restrain themselves 
if the president desired a few days ad- 
ditional. Mr. Grout has prepared a 
resolution appropriating $1,000,000 to 
raise the hull of the Maine. “If she 
was blown up,” sai dhe, “we can well 
afford to spend $1,000,000 to demonstrate 
that fact. Her hull could be raised by 
building cofferdams. If she was blown 
up the truth will be known. Murder 
will out.” 


Attitude of the Senate, 

Washington, April 4.—There is a con- 
siderable element in the senate which 
is opposed to war except as a last ex- 
tremity, and there are several others 
who think there ought to be a delay of 
at least a week or 10 days before action 
is taken in congress in order to insure 
the safe landing of ships and war sup- 
plies now on their way to this country 
from Europe. Thecommittee on foreign 
relations is not impressed with this line 
of reasoning, and the members urge that 
Spain is no better prepared for hos- 
tilities than are we. The members of 
this committee do not expect the pres- 
ident’s message before Tuesday and they 
are prepared to wait until Wednesday. 
Under great pressure there might be a 
delay beyond that time, but a request for 
such delay would cause great restive- 
ness on the part of a majority of the 
committee, 

While desirous of giving the president 
all the time he may actually require 
for the preparation of his message, the 
members are impatient of the outside 
influence which is being exerted to hold 
them in check. This pressure is in the 
shape of letters and telegrams from peo- 
ple throughout the country who are op- 
posed to a war policy, and with these the 
mmembers are being flooded. “The 
writers,” said a member of the com- 
mittee, “generally ask us to maintain 
an honorable peace. Of course we all 
want an honorable peace, but the time 
has gone when that could be secured 
under existing circumstances in Cuba. 
We cannot allow our conduct to be con- 
trolled by such expressions.” 

Unless there should be a change in 
the committee's conclusions after the 
president shall have been heard from, 
the resolutions reported will recommend 
the recognition of Cuban independence, 
with a declaration of armed intervention 
to make independence practicable. 
They will also include the Maine ex- 
plosion as one of the causes for this 
action, 


Two Ships Not Ready. 

London, April 4.—Some of the Span- 
ish ships are in bad condition The 
Pelayo started from Toulon for Carta- 
gena Saturday night in tow, with 150 
French workmen on board fixing her 
boilers and making other repairs, The 
Emperador Carlos strated from the 
Seine shipyards at Havre for Ferrol 
with a turret out of position and her 
guns unmounted. Neither ship will 
be ready for service foramonth. They 
have left French waters presumably in 
the fear that war might begin before 
the repairs were finished, in which event 
they would not by be permitted to leave. 


Prayers For Spanish Success. 

Madrid, April 4.—From all the pulpits 
in Madrid Sunday the priests read a 
letter from the bishop of the diocese an- 
nouncing that he considered war to be 
imminent, and ordering prayers for the 
success of the Spanish arms. The ma- 
jority of the newspapers regard war as 
inevitable. They think General Wood- 
ford has communicated a final answer 
to the government. The Liberal says: 
“It is clear that no concession will 
satisfy the United States excepting the 
independence of Cuba, and we had bet- 
ter immediately end the uncertainty.” 
« Another paper asserts that “great un- 
easiness prevails at Washington con- 
cerning the attitude of the southern 
states incase of war with Spain, and also 
because Spaniards are organizing in 
Mexico to invade the states vilely wrest- 
ed from the Mexican government.” In 
conclusion it says that “it will not be 
all ‘beer and skittles’ for the United 
States.” 


Manifesto to Cuba, 

Havana, April 4.—The autonomous 
secretaries met Sunday and considered 
the issue of a manifesto to all Cubans, 
calling upon them to assist loyally in the 
establishment of the present regime, a 
scheme of government to be perfected 
and amplified according to the neces- 
sities of the island. The manifesto 
would point out that Cubans could nt 

find true independence In the plans « 
the separatists, but would be absorbe 
by foreigners, and that real liberty 
| possible only by supporting and carry- 
ing out the present regime. The mani- 
festo would conclude by urging upon 
Cubans calmness and prudence amid 
| the present discussions between the 
United States and Spain. 


The Pope as Mediator. 

London, April 4.—The Daily Mail, in 
its second edition, publishes a specia! 
dispatch from Madrid, dated midnigit 
confirming the announcement of tl 
pope's offer to mediate. The dispatt 

'gpays: “His holiness applied to Spa. 
asking her how, in case the Unite: 
States should invite him to mediate with 
the sole object of suspending hostilities 

| in Cuba, Spain would receive the re- 
quest. The Spanish government re- 
plied affirming its respectful considera 
tion of the offer, declaring that, trustin 
in his holiness’ sentiments of benevolent 
friendship, it would place itself in his 

} hands, saving Spain’s honor.” 

Fiect Not at Porto Rico, 

Madrid, April 4.—The torpedo flotilla 
has reached the Cape de Verde islands, 
and is to remain there for the present. 
The flotilla will be conyoyed to Cuba by

In and Out Among the Officials 
of Quincey. 


The regular meeting of the City 
Council will be held this evening, and 
among other matters to come before 
it will be a public hearing on the 
petition of the Weymouth and Brain- 
tree street railway for a location on 
Franklin street and Presidents avenue. 
There will also be public hearings on 
the relocation of High street and the 
of East Elm avenue as @ 
public way. The Committee on Streets 
will report onthe order for a stone 
culvert ons Hancock street near the 
Catholic church, Atlantic, and the 
Committee on Licenses will report on 
minor licenses. The only matter in the 
calendar is the order appropriating 
$100,000 for the extension of the sewer. 

The regular monthly meeting of the 
Managers of Public Burial Places will 
be held Thursday evening.

BOSTON MATTERS. 
Pulpic Utterances Dealt With the Crittf- 
cal Situation In National Affairs. 

Boston, April 4.—The services of Palm 
Sunday in the churches of Boston and 
Vicinity, especially those of the ritual- 
istic order, were made especially impres- 
sive by pulpit reference to the present 
crisis in national affairs. As if by one 
accord the clergymen without distinc- 
tion lifted up their voices in prayer for 
peace without bloodshed and an honor- 


from gas in his room Sunday morning 
He was taken to the hospital, where his 
condition is considered critical. 

Frank C. Mooney, a milkman, was 
taken with a fainting spell Sunday morn- 
ing and fell his wagon. Both 
wheels passed over his neck, and he is 
not expected to live. 


John L. Sullivan arrived in Boston last 


from 


and that crowded houses had greeted 
him everywhere. 


Must Work or Starve, 
New Bedford, Mass., April 4.—The re- 
tail grocers and market men, without ex- 


feed wire gave out and not until the| ception, who have been carrying the 
supply wagon was sent fcr and the strikers on credit for 10 weeks, have is- 

n led } bl sued notice that commencing Monday, 
wire mended was the,car able to pro April 11, all sales will be for cash only. 


In enforcing this action they are backed 
up by the wholesalers, who will de- 
mand cash payments of the retailers. 
This action means that the strikers will 
have to accept the alternative of re- 
turning to work or starve. ‘The pastors 
of the three French Catholic churches 
Sunday practically advised their parish- 
ioners to return to work. 

“It is about time something was 
done to settle this strike,” said Harriet 
Pickering, the advocate of the issue for 
doing away with the fines. “Wehave 
held out in hardship all these weeks to 
discover that the rank and file of the 
operatives have got to obey the few 
leaders in whatever they say. Itisa 
worse despotism than we ever had in the 
mill. The only thing to do now is to 
separate the issue of the strike and get 
& compromise on the cut-down. They 
may have killed my fines bill now, but 
they will hear from it again next year, 
and they may hear from me before that 
time.”

Where did it come from? 


One of the larzest Woolen Mills in New England had 9,000 yards 
of Covert Goods on its hands; they needed money to meet their 
obligations and they closed out the whole lot for spot cash toa 
large wholesaler who manufactured it into Overcoats. It took 
more money than they could afford to swing the contract. 


They saw trouble ahead, 


And to prevent it, put the most ridicuously spot cash price on the 
lot that we have ever seen in all our years of experience in the 
clothing business. 


In a combination of four stores, 


We bought some for Quincy for almost nothing, and wil have 
them on sale— 


SATURDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 2. 


We could sell them at double the price we ask, and you would be 
pleased. But that is not the New Store’s-way of doing business. 
We have promised you different methods from what you are usedl 
to, and we mean to fulfil our promises. We believe if we buy a 
thing for a litle money, sell it for little money as long as it pays us 
a litle profit. A ; 


What are the goods and make up 
of this coat? 


It is an all-wool Covert. We have boiled it and tested it with acid, 
and have failed to find a particle of cotton init. It is sewed and put 
together by first-class tailors; not glued together, or made by over- 
all minufacturers, or in New York tenement houses. It is made 
in the latest style with swelled edges, has satin sleeve linings, all- 
woo! body linings and the inside facings are piped with satin— 


And the price is $4.48. 


After reading the price you may laugh at it. You may say you would not wear a $4.48 coat. 
That's what our buyer did when he heard of it, but after seeing it, and turning it inside out and 
examining it, we could not see wherein it was inferior to coats sold for $10 or $12. We have but 
a limited number, so come at once and get first pick. 

If you are in need of a Suit, you will find lots ot them at our store from $6.50 to $16.50, 
and we make custom ones from $12 to $25. 

If you are in need of Pants, we have the all wool “ never rip’ trousers for $1.48, and nice 
dress ones for a little more. 

‘ If you want to trim your youngsters up for Easter, you will find a large selection of Children’s 
Suits in all shades and styles at our store, from 98c. to $4.98. 

If you want an Overall for 39c., the same as you have been paying 50c. for, come and see Us 
If you wish to purchase a Hat, Necktie, Collar, or any article kept in a Gents’ Furnish- 
ing Store, for less money than they can be bought elsewhere, come to us. We mean to break the

QUINCY DATA. 


The growth of the municipal city debt is presented in a new light today. 
The first summary shows the amount of the debt on Jan. 1 of each of the 
years from 1892 to 1898 inclusive, as given in the City Auditor’s annual report; 
also the debt maturing during the ensuing year, and the amount of the new 


loans during that year. The gmount of 


the loans is obtained by deducting the 


payment from the debt of Jan. 1 and subtracting the result from the debt of 


Jan. 1 of the next year:

In 1892 the new loans were heavy and of the $122,450 authorized $10,100 


was added to the 1898 account. 
In 1893 the loans were $89,049, and 


$10,000 was added to 1898 account. 


In 1894 the loans amounted to $36,091, and $4,700 was apportioned to 1898. 


In 1895 the loans amounted to only $6,255.61 and the 1895 debt was not 


increased. 


In 1896 a debt of $91,420 was voted and it increased the 1898 account $8,300. 


In 1897 the loans amounted to $25,900 and the 1898 debt was increased 


$4,500. 


The low tax rate of the first three years of the city is very largely respon- 


sible for the large maturing debt of 1897, 1898 and 1899. 


In 1889 the tax rate 


was but $10.80, a drop from $16.70 the previous year because of the operation 


of the tax limit law which was applicable to cities but not to towns.

Memorial Church. 

The pulpit of the Atlantic Memorial 
Congregational church was occupied 
Sunday morning by Rev. E. E. Ayers 
of Harvard Divinity school. His text | 
was Romans 5:1. Faith was his main 
topic of consideration though she 
welcomed the honest doubt that de-, 
investigation, led to deeper 
thinking, and resulted in strengthening 
that faith in Christ which elevates | 
and inspires to do the best with all| 
the abilities God has given to us.

The Y. P. S. C. E. met at 615. 

In the evening Rev. J. HU. Whitaker 
gave a talk on the subject of ** Young | 
Women’’ in which he said that young 
women’s greatest charm and greatest 
opportunity for usefulness lay in being 
themselves. The sincerity of their 
character would outshine any outward 
defect and become an inspiration to 
those with whom they associated, es- 
pecially so to the young men of their 
acquaintance who would be unconscious- 
ly influenced to actions in accordance 
with the development of their highest 
manhood, by the queenly power they 
thus would wield.

NEWS IN BRIEF. 


Three thousand journeymen carpen- 
ters in Chicago are on a strike because 
of their refusal to agree that no work 
shall be done for bosses outside of the 
Builders’ association. 

John J. Fitzgerald and George Dostal, 
composing Denver's crack handball 
team, defeated the world’s champions, 
Messrs. Casey and Dunne of Breoklyn. 
The score was 21 to 20. 

The stable connected with the Albion 
House in West Newbury, Mass., was 
burned Sunday afternoon, together with 
three valuable horses and a number of 
carriages. The fire was presumaBly of 
incendiary origin. 

Fire at Rock Hill, 8. C., Sunday morn- 
ing destroyed 12 business buildings, in- 
volving a loss of $250,000, upon which 
there was an insurance of $150,000, dis- 
tributed in 16 companies. The origin 
is yet a matter of speculation. 

An emigrant train on the Canadian 
Pacific railway from St. John to Mat-

A SECOND JOHNSTOWN 


Water From a Lovee Overspreads an 
Mlnois Town, 


Only Meager Details of the 
Disaster Obtainable. 


The Loss of Life Believed to Reach Into the 
Hundreds. 


St. Louis, April 4.—A special from 
Girard, llls., says: A telephone mes- 
sage has been received here from Shaw- 
neetown, Ills., saying that at 4:30 
o'clock Sunday afternoon the levee 
above the city broke and the city is 
inundated. The water backed up for 
five miles and rushed down upon the city 
like a tidal wave. After the message 
was received, telephone and telegraph 
communication with Shawnectown was 
suddenly cut off, which tends to confirm 
the report. Nothing more has been 
learned. 

At midnight the operator in the Long 
Distance Telephone company’s office at 
Mount Vernon, Ind., informed the As- 
sociated Press that the estimate of the 
loss of life at Shawneetown was 200. 
Mount Vernon is but 30 miles from 
Shawneetown, and the information on 
which the estimate is based is believed 
to be reliable. 

People from Mount Vernon and the 
surrounding country besieged the tel- 
ephone and telegraph offices frantically 
for tidings from relatives and friends 
in the flooded town. Noattemptatan 
accurate list of the lost was possible, 
however, and the crowds stood all night 
before the bulletin boardson which were 
posted the meagre reports being re- 
ceived. 

Shawneetown has a population of 
about 2000 inhabitants and is situated on 
the west bank of the Ohio river. The 
streets were parallel with the river, the 
principal business street being but two 
blocks distant from the water. The 


level of the river is about 15 feet above} 


the city, and the levee bank is about 20 
feet thick. 
normal stage it is 1000 feet wide at this 
point. A tremendous pressure is brought 
to bear on the levee during freshets. 
Several years ago during a flood the 
water flowed over the levee and the 
streets were under two feet of water. 
The levee was strengthened and built 
up afterward, 


BOSTON OPINION, 


What The Journal Says About the Posi- 
tion of the Reconcentrados, 
Boston, April 4—The Journal con- 
cludes a scathing review of the treat- 
ment of the Cuban non-combatants in 
“Instead of turning the 
reconcentrados over to these tigers in 
human form, it would be merciful for the 
Spanish authorities to poison them off 
hand or drown them by the shipload in 
Havana harbor. The complete col- 
lapse that this ‘concentration which is 
desolation’ can be remedied under Span- 
ish rule gives ten-fold greater urgency 
to the duty that confronts the United 
States. The 400,000 reconcentrados have 
only one hope for life—the coming of 
peace and the driving out of the Spanish 
oppressors. If President McKinley con- 
cludes that this can be done only by war, 
then he will have as holy a cause and as 
righteous a war as was ever known in 

the history of christendom.” 

“Now that hostilities between the 
United States and Spain seem, according 
te general opinion, to be imminent,” 
says The Post, ‘‘the public, which looks 
to the newspapers for all details of the 
developments, should bear in mind that 
accurate news of the plans and move- 
ments of the enemy will be very difficult 
and often impossible to obtain. Whether 
it is war or only preparation for war, 
one of the first principles of strategy 
is concealment of plans and purposes. 
It is much the same on our own side, 
for admirals and generals do not gen- 
erally take the public into confidence re- 
garding their plans.” 

“The people have not lost faith in the 
President's judgment,’ remarks The 
Globe. ‘They hope he will act, and act 
as becomes his station. This does not 
imply, however, that they believe all 
wisdom is centered in him. Congress 
has its full part and right in the work 
of asserting and maintaining the coun- 
try’s honor. And if nine-tenths of its 
members shall range themselves square- 
ly on the side of a speedy recognition of 
Cuban independence, who shall say that, 
coming directly from the people, they 
do not represent the people in this mat- 
ter?”" 

The effect of war upon business is thus 
pictured by The Advertiser: “While it 
is well to be hopeful it is not wise to be 
unreasonably hopeful. This country 
will suffer in case of war. The supplies 
for the army will be bought, it is true, 
but practically because the soldiers have 
to live; and the government’s demand 
will be merely substituted for individual 
demand in the case of those soldiers. 
If they had stayed at home those ia- 
Hividual soldiers would have bought 
probably as much provisions, and per- 
haps even more; for army rations are not 
of a luxurious character. While the de- 
mand for battleships and the call for 
rifles and powder will be greater, the de- 
mand for steel rails and ploughs and 
hardware will be less.” 


Sank With Eighteen Men, 
Lowestoft, April 4—The suspicion ig 
tonfirmed that it was the German steam-

Spain early next week. 

All parties are offering aid to the

posing the abandonment of Cuba pro-

Secured at a Bargain. 

London, April 4—A _ cruiser which 
Licutenant Commander Colwell has pur- 
chased for the United States was built 
by the Thames Iron Works company for 
Peru. It was finished during the war 
between Peru and Chili, but the Brit- 
ish government would not permit it to 
leave, on account of the neutrality law. 
The cruiser has been entirely refitted 
during the past year and modernized at 

jan expense of $125,000. The negotia- 
| tions for purchase were kept a secret as 
| Lieutenant Commander Colwell wanted 
|} to secure the cruiser at a good bargain. 

The price asked was $400,000, but it is 

understood that she has been secured 

for about half that amount, after the 
| owner had been given to understand that 
there was only a forlorn hope of selling 
her. The price paid is considerably 
below the cost of building. 

When Lieutenant Commander Colwell 
|raised the stars and strises over the 
cruiser, which he did most informally 
and without his uniform, a crowd of 
English sailors on the wharves cheered 
heartily. 

Princeton’s President Preached. 

Princeton, N. J., April 4.—President 
| ‘Patton conducted the preliminary de- 
votional exercises in the university 
chapel service yesterday morning, and 
before reading the scripture lesson he 
addressed the student body as follows: 
“We must all feel that this is a day of 
unspeakable solemnity, and as we meet 
in the calm and quiet of this beautiful 
Sabbath morning, we cannot help think- 
ing that it Is perhaps the calm before 
the storm. Thereisa possibility, indeed 
a probability, that our nation will be in- 
volved in war, and I wish to say to you 
that war is not a thing to treat lightly 
or in jest. War is horrible. It may be 
that the cause of humanity will provea 
sufficient justification in the present in- 
stance, but a war undertaken by this 
christian nation at this period of the 
world’s history for any but the best of 
reasons would be a blot on our civiliza- 
tion. There are wars, of course, which 
are waged in obedience to the highest 
behests of humanity; and there is no 
doubt that there are a great many who 
favor war today under the influence of 


NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY. 
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia. 


This may read as though we were 
putting it a little strong because it is 
generaly thought by the majority of 
people that Dyspepsia in its chronic 
form is*incurable, or practically so. 
But we have long since shown that 
Dyspepsia is curable nor is it such a 
difficult matter as it first appears. 

The trouble with Dyspeptics is that 
they are continually dieting, starving 
themselves or going to opposite ex- 
tremes or:else deluging the already 
over burdened stomach with *‘bitters,’’ 
‘‘after dinner pills,’’ etc., whieh in- 
variably increase the difficulty even if 
in some cases they do give a slight 
temporary relief. Such treatment of 
the stomach simply makes matters 
worse. What the stomach wants is a 
rest. Now how can the stomach be- 
comes rested, “recuperated and at the 
same time the body nourished and 
sustained. 

This is the great secret and this is 
also ,the secret of the uniform success 
of Stuart’s Dypepsia Tablets. This is 
a@ comparatively new remedy, but ,its 
success and popularity leaves no doubt 
as to its merits. ; 

The tablets will digest the food 
anyway, regardless of condition of 
stomach. 

The sufferer from dyspepsia accord- 
ing to directions is to eat an abund- 
ance of good wholesome food and use 
the tablets before and after each meal 
and the result will be that the food 
will be digested no matter how bad 
your dyspepsia may be, because as _ be- 
fore stated, the tablets will digest the 
food even if the stomach is wholly 
inactive. To illustrate our meaning 
plainly if you take 1,800 grains of 
meat, eggs or ordinary food and place 
it in a temperature of 98 degrees and 
put with it one of Stuart’s dyspepsia 
Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs 
almost as perfectly as if the meat was 
enclosed within the stomach. 


The stomach may be ever so weak 
yet these tablets will perform the work 
of digestion and the body and brain 
will be properly nourished aud at the 
same time a radical, lasting cure of 
dyspepsia will be made because the 
much abused stomach will be given, 


Your druggist will tell you that of 
the many remedies advertised to cure 
dyspepsia noue of them has given so 
complete and general satisfaction‘ as 
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablet and not least 
in importance in these hard times is 
the fact that they are also the cheapest 
and give the most good for the least 
money.

Faith of Mr. Woodford, | 

Madrid, April 4.—In answer to a re-) 
quest from the Associated Press General } 
Woodford, the United States minister, | 
has made the following statement: “The 
obligations of my diplomatic position 
absolutely forbid my granting an inter- 
view, or giving the slightest intimation | 
as to the present condition of the diplo-| 
matic negotiations entrusted to my} 
eare. I came to Spain under instruc-) 
tions from President McKinley to secure 
peace in Cuba, with a permanent peace | 
between the United States and Spain, a| 
peace that should be built upon bedrock 
conditions—conditions of justice to ¢ uba, | 
with assured protection to the great} 
American interests in that island. I) 
have labored steadily to obtain this re-| 
sult. I have never lost my faith; and, | 


doubtful as conditions may seem today, | J 


I still believe these great and good pur-/ 
poses of my president may yet be se-| 
cured. I shall not desist from my labors 
for a just and honorable peace until the 
guns actually open fire; and my faith is} 
gtill strong that war, with all its hor- 
rors, can ke averted. 

“Enough blood has been shed in Cuba 
already; and I cannot believe that the 
closing hours of the 19th century will be 
reddened by a conflict between Spain 
and the United States. My country asks 
for peace based upon conditions that 
shall make peace permanent and benefi- | 
cent; and I have faith that Spain will 
yet do what is necessary to assure jus- 
tice for Cuba, and with justice peace is} 
certain.” 


BAY STATE BISHOP. 


“Let Us Strain Every Nerve For Peaec,” 
He Recommended, 

Boston, April 4.—Bishop William Law- 

rence made a remarkable plea Sunday } 


for an honorable peace in our dealings | 
with other nations. After his opening | 
reference to the gospel lesson, the bishor 
took up tke question of Cuba, saying: | 
“I have been asked as bishop to ur 
every clergyman in this diocese to pre: 
for peace. No! Sunday after Sunda~ 
for years the preachers and the chu 
have been doing their best to develup 
christian character among the peo 
the sense of responsibility in public 
fice, the duty of selfrestraint and pa- 
tience, the ,randeur of peace. Whena 
crisis comes the citizens and the rule 
speak; they represent the christian sen 
ment in action as well as word. Then 
is the time for the church to pray> Yet 
with this said I should feel that Iw 
not doing my duty if I kept wholly sil 
ent. 


REV. WILLIAM LAWRENCE, 8. T. D, 

“The time has passed for discussion 
as to how the present troubles about 
Cuba arose—whether from unscrupulous 
plantation owners and sugar importers, 
from low demagegues in high places, o7 
from a false and vulgar form of patriot- 
ism. Sympathy with a people strug- 
gling as did our fathers for freedom from | 
tyranny has had its part, anda profound 
sympathy for thousands of starving suf- 
ferers near our coast. Whatever the 
causes or the motives the fact is that we 
stand today in imminent danger of war. 

“If war must come, let it come, but 
before it comes let us strain every nerve 
for peace as behooves a christian na- 
tion. The point is not whether Cuba 
must be freed today, or whether we in- 
tervene today, but whether by diplom- 
acy, by conciliation, by conference, by 
any means except war, the object which 
this nation in its sober judgment and 
not in excitement believes it should at- 
tain can be attained by peace. What! 
boots it a few days or weeks provided 
this nation stands before the world and | 
before God as having exhausted every 
means for a peaceful settlement before 
resort to arms? Asa people it behooves 
us to allow no rumors of war, no appeal | 
to passion, no cheap journalism or even | 
tender sympathy for suffering Cubaus 
to paralyze our reason, throw away our 
selfrestraint or sweep us off our feet.” 


Thirty Days of Grace, 

Boston, Aprié 4.—Elizabeth Ward, the 
well-known writer, has written a letter 
in which she says: “What a spectacle— 
a christian nation threatening to declare 
war, unnecessary, unjustifiable, un- 
righteous war, on holy week; and plot- 
ting butchery on Easter day! The 
veriest furioso in congress must hang 
his head before this shameful and u:- 
timely sight. We have a christian 
statesman at the head of our govern- 
ment. Extend to him at least the sim- 
ple courtesy yielded in the commonest 
commercial transactions. Grant the 
president 30 days to meet the call of the 
crisis. He will settle this trouble with- 
out slaughter. Give him a chance, Let 
him have time to save us from a national 
blunder and disgrace which histo~y 
would never forget to record against 
us.” 


Chinese Statesman Accused. 

Shanghai, April 4.—It is announced 
that a person of the highest rank has 
memoralized the emperor in the most 
vigorous language, accusing the foreign 
office of being in the pay of Russia. He 
asserts that Russia expended 10,000,000 
taels in bribery during the recent ne- 
gotiations regarding the cession of Port 
Arthur and Ta-Lien-Wan, and claims 
that Li Hung Chang's share was 1,500, - 
000 taels. 
mands a full investigation, and asks that 
Li Hung Chang be beheaded if the ac- 
cusations are proven, the memorializer 
offering to be executed himself if his 
charges are not sustained.

Applied Last Night and Cabi- 


net's Endorsemeat Secured, 


Madrid, April 5.—There is positive au- 
thority for saying that the government 
has accepted a proposition which is re- 
garded here as a step toward peace. 

Sunday morning the queen regent 
summoned her ministers, and informed 
them that the pope had offered media- 
ion, and advised that Spain should at 
once grant an armistice, as requested 
by the United States, thus ending the 
question ef peace or war in favor of 
peace. 

In the afternoon the Austrian am- 
bassador called upon General Wood- 
ford and gave his assurance that he 
would guarantee that Spain would carry 
put her portion of the contract, which is 
to do everything in her power to re- 
store harmony in Cuba during the time 
the armistice lasts. 

The Spanish government has been 
afraid to grant an armistice on account 
of the army, but the pope advises the 
army as a father and bids it cease fight- 
ing. 

Spain only asks one thingin return for 
this concession. That is that the 
United States meet her half-way by 
simultaneously withdrawing her war- 
ships in Cuban waters. 

Thus the doors of peace are once more 
wide open, and it is probably that the 
Cuban question will be solved with peace 
and honor. 

PRESIDENT’S DISPOSITION, 
Anxious to Obtain Hearty Co-Operation 
of the Congressmen. 


Washington, April 5.—The president's 
poeore was to make no recommendation 
nis message, except for the relief of 
a reconcentrados, and to trust to his 
statement of facts and arguments upon 
the review of the situation and the his- 
tory of the matter toso impress congress 
as to prevent hostile action by it at this 
time. He was told by conservatives, as 
much opposed to war and desirous of a 
peaceful settlement as he himself, that 
this might not be effective, since the ma- 
jority of congress, even though made of 
«minority of Republicans incombination 
with Democrats and other elements, 
would simply ignore such a message, and 
pass one of the extreme warlike resolu- 
tions, if not an actual declaration of 
war, which would defeat his whole pur- 
pose. 

The president thought at first that the 
pressure from the country would prevent 
this, but he became satisfied yesterday 
that it would not, although it would 
tuffice to induce a majority of congress 
made up of the Republicans and some 
of the Democrats to follow President 
McKinley, if he should recommend 
measures in the line of the congres- 
sional desire, but much short of the ex- 
tremes. 

The Republican managers will prob- 
ably have to make the resolution cover 
the recognition of independence, as well 
as discretionary intervention, in order 
to satisfy the two houses. Then, unless 
Spain should take the aggressive and 
interfere with our relief work or other- 
wise commit some overt act, there would 
be no war, and the president, backed up 
by the new authority given him in an 
impressive manner by congress, gyould 
be able to bring Spain to terms, ft is be- 
lieved by all of those who are engineering 
this new move. 

Notwithstanding the many reports of 
European mediation, they assumed their 
first tangible form Monday afternoon, 
when at least two of the foreign em- 
bassies in Washington received official 
information that an exchange of notes 
between the great powers was now in 
aw with a view to arriving at a 

s on which they could make a joint 
proposal for mediation. It is evident 
that the exchange has not yet been pro- 
ductive of a common understanding, as 
the ambassadors and ministers here 
have not received instructions to initiate 
j the movement. 
thus far is that the notes are passing by 
telegraph between the capitals of 
Europe. It had been understood that 
France and Austria were most active in 
bringing about this movement, and that 
Creat Britain had held aloof from it, but 
it develops that the British government 
fs also taking part in the exchange, and 
that in case of concerted action by the 
powers Great Britain probably will act 
!with the others. 


Their only information | 


“Wait for Wednesday,” was the word 
passed about the capital Monday, and a 
general understanding to that effect was 
reached. The Republicans will not in- 
itiate and the Democrats will not try to 
force any action on Cuba until tomorrow, 
when the president's message will be re- 
ceived in all probability. With that un- 
derstanding the senate foreign relations 
committee did not report, and the house 
foreign affairs committee took no ac- 
tion. It is known that the senate com- 
mittee has agreed to report practically 
the Foraker resolution, declaring inde- 
pendence and intervention, with an 
amendment fixing the responsibility for 
the destruction of the Maine upon Spain, 
either by design or criminal negligence. 
The house committee will report, if pos- 
sible, a resolution in line with the presi- 
dent’s recommenda! ions, and it is known 
that efforts are being made to have the 
resolutions of beth committees agree 
with the president's wishes. 


Cc ONGRESSIONAL. 


Senators Who Think the Time to Strike 
Has Come. 

Washington, April 5.—It was a great 
audience that looked down upon the 
chamber when the senate convened. 
Every seat in every gallery, except the 
@iplomatic, was filled, and even in the 
diplomatic gallery there were several 
members of foreign legations. Senator 
Clay of Georgia was heard on the Cu- 
ban question. He was satisfied that a 
permanent peace cuuld not be had in 
Cuba that did not include independence. 
With the Cubans it was liberty or death. 
The remedy to be applied to the situa- 
tion was absolute independence, as it 
was evident that the island could no 
longer be held under Spanish sovereignty. 
By herself recognizing the independence 
of Cuba and withdrawing her troops 
from the island, Spain was afforded the 
one opportunity to make Cuba _ her 
friend. Unless she embraced this op- 
portunity Spain could not support her 
rule upon the island for five times as 
much as the island was worth to her. 
Mr. Clay fully realized, he said, that in 
the event of war Li@ south would bea 
greater sufferer than any other part of 
the country. Her seacoast cities would 
be open to attack by the enemy, her peo- 
ple would be first called upon to defend 
their homes from invasion and her com- 
merce would be seriously crippled. He 
would not vote for war unless every ef- 
fort to bring about a peaceful solution 
of the present difficulty was first ex- 
hausted. If, however, the matter could 
not be settled diplomatically in conson- 
ance with the honor and dignity of the 
country, he would favor drastic action. 

“The people of the south believe,” he 
said, “in the independence of Cuba, and 
if Spain will not agree to that peacefully, 
they favor the United States enforcing 
it with all the power of her land and 
naval forces.” 

Senator Perkins referred to the scheme 
instituted by Weyle: to starve more than 
1,000,000 Spanish sw jects into submis- 
sion, and declared that nothing in all 
history compared with the atrocity and 
brutality that Weyler had exercised 
against the Cubans. The time for ac- 
tion had, in his opinion, arrived. “A 
little more delay,”’ said he, “‘a little more 
waiting, and the United States would 
become an accessory to the greatest, the 
most appalling crime in history. The 
patience of a great nation has its limits, 
and in this case the limit had been 
reached. The time for the horrors in 
Cuba to cease has come, and cease they 
must. Right, justice and humanity de- 
manded that this government should 
intervene to stop the cruel warfare being 
waged by Spain against the Cuban in- 
surgents, a people who were struggling 
for their freedom within 90 miles of our 
own shores. 

Mr. Perkins, who has had a lifetime of 
experience in the handling of great ves- 
gels, discussed the destruction of the 
Maine from the viewpoint of an expert. 
For 40 days and nights the people had 
suspended judgment, but now that the 
facts had been laid before them, the ver- 
dict was unanimous that the great bat- 
tleship was blown up not only from the 
outside, but with the cognizance of Span- 
ish officials, for whose acts the Spanish 
government was fully responsible. The 
explosives were placed under the Maine 
by officials of the Spanish government. 
The people believed that they were ex- 
ploded by design, and he was one who 
held to that belief. It would have been 
impossible, Mr. Perkins said, for any 
man or set of men to place in the har- 
bor of Havana mines or torpedoes with- 
out the knowledge of the government 
authorities. “This most hideous crime 
of the 19th century,” declared Mr. Perk- 
ins, vehemently, “was an act of war, 
and I believe that it is so regarded by 
the nations of the world.” No offer of 
reparation could wipe out the feeling of 
the people of this country upon the mat- 
ter and intensity had been added to that 
feeling by the almost frivolous manner 
in which the disaster had been treated 
by Spain. Mr. Perkins said that while 
he favored arbitration, individuals never 
attempted to arbitrate questions of 
honor, and nations could not afford to 
submit such questions to arbitration. 
Gold could not atone for the loss of those 
precious lives. The only honorable ac- 
tion for this country now to take was to 
intervene and free Cuba from the yoke 
of Spain.

ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., NEW YORK. 


Mr. Mantle of Montana followed with 
an extended speech upon Cuba, in which 
he favored the independence of the Cu- 
ban people, who for years had been 
struggling for freedom. “I would,” said 
he, “give my unqualified endorsement 
and vote in favor of directing the presi- 
dent to use the armed forces, both land 
and naval, to suppress the savagery that 
is now rampant upon that fair island.’ 
He had the highest regard for the presi- 
dent, but it was perfectly evident to all 
that the time for diplomatic negotia- 
tions on the Cuban question had passed. 
The sooner action was taken the better 
it would be for all concerned. Spain 
had violated every principle of civilized 
warfare and had thrown humanity to 
the winds. He not only believed the 
time had come for recognizing Cuban 
independence, but that a declaration of 
war would be fully justified by the wilful 
destruction of the Maine. 

Mr. Rawlins of Utah said the case be- 
tween Spain and the United States was 
made up. It was no longer for the 
executive to decide what course to pur- 
sue. With congress rested the respon- 
sibility of declaring war, and as this was 
the pressing duty the president was no 
longer the party to be criticised if any 
éne was to be. Mr, Rawlins criticised 
our halting policy in strong language, 
saying that it was such as to justify 
Spain in holding the United States in 
contempt. He added that the crime of 
the explosion of the Maine was due to 
our indecision and cowardice, and that 
such an act would never have been 
perpetrated against any other nation. 
In conclusion Mr. Rawlins made an 
argument for an absolute declaration of 
war instead of a declaration for Ameri- 
can intervention, 

While there was no attempt to force 
consider:§*on for a resolution regarding 
the Cuban situation in the house, there 
was a brief outbreak, in the course of 
which the warlike temper of the crowded 
galleries was so manifest that Speaker 
Reed threatened to clear them if it was 
repeated. The outbreak occurred over 
a bill to authorize the president to erect 
temporary fortifications in case of 
emergency upon land when the written 
consent of the owners was obtained, 
without awaiting the long process of 
legal condemnation. This led to a de- 
mand by Mr. Bailey, the Democratic 
leader, for information as to the facts 
which warranted all these war measures. 
The particular statement which aroused 
the galleries was to the effect that while 
the Democrats were willing to wait any 
reasonable time for the president to 
transmit a message that would meet the 
approval of the American people, they 
would not wait a minute for him to con- 
tinue negotiations with the butchers of 
Spain. When the demonstrations in the 
galleries were rebuked by the speaker, 
Mr. Bailey declared that the galleries 
were the American people in miniature. 
Mr. Cannon accused Mr. Bailey of “‘pos- 
turing’ and playing to the galleries. The 
bill was passed, and it was arranged 
that the army reorganization bill should 
be taken up Wednesday. 


Expects a Peaceful Outcome. 

Washington, April 5.—Senator Elkins 
thinks that peace will be the outcome of 
the agitation over Cuba. He bases his 
opinion upon the theory that the nego- 
tiations will be reopened and that Spain 
will yet see her way clear to accepting 
the propositions of the United States. 
“Suppose negotiations have been sus- 
pended,” he said; “they can be reopened. 
I should not be surprised if they had al- 
ready been reopened, nor to hear any 
hour that Spain had ylelded,” 


STEPHEN B. ELEINS. 

The senator expressed the opinion that 
mot only France and other European 
powers were exercising their influence 
with effect, but also that the financial 
and religious powers were being brought 
to bear in a way that must benefit for 
peace. “It is a common sense proposi- 
tion,” he said in conclusion, “and in the 
end common sense must win. As forthe 
United States, they «mnnot afford to 
epend a thousand million dollars and de- 
stroy many thousands of lives to secure 
the independence of the Cubans, and if 
they go to war at all it shouldbe for 
some other reason.” 


Spain's Mauy Expedients. 

New York, April 5.—H. 8. Rubens, 
counsel for the Cuban junta, when asked 
concerning the report that Spain had 
asked the insurgents for an armistice, 
said: “Spain tried to force autonomy 
on us, and signally failed. Then she 
tried bribery without avail. There 
would appear to be nothing more which 
she could do to dissuade the Cubans 
from fighting on for absolute indepen- 
dence. If Spain declares an armi- 
stice, it would simply strengthen the 
Cubans in their conviction that Span- 
ish rule in Cuba is at an end, that she 
is exhausted, beaten; but yet with her 
diplomatic bad faith, would try to turn 
death into victory. The declaration of 
an armistice by Spain would be an ac- 
knowledgment of the belligerency of the 
Cubans, and consequently of the

Good Afternoon. 


It may not be unusual for cities to 
refund their debt, but there is a repug- 
nance against going to the Legislature 
forsuch a purpose, and therefore we 
anticipate opposition to the order in- 
troduced into the City Council by 
Councilman Parker. We are pleased 
to see that Mr. Parker does not propose 
to let city finances drift without a guid- 
ing hand, and his efforts to even up 
the payments is commendable, but 
there isa better way justnow. Few 
cities now raise all their annual appro- 
priation order by taxation, but items 
in the nature of permanent im- 
provements are separated and consti- 
tute a loan order. The appropriation 
order of 1897 including maturing debt 
and interest was $351,126.21. Of this 
$234,895.00 was for ‘ current ex- 
penses’’ making it necessary to raise 
by taxation $195,000.00. If some of 
the items are separated out this year 
so that it will be necessary to raise but 
$175,000.00 by taxation, and $20,000 
by a ten-year loan, it will accomplish 
the desired end and reduce the tax 
rate of 1898. It was only last week 
that Mayor Quincy wrote to each of 
the Boston departments asking them 
what items they would like to have in- 
corporated in aloan order soon to be 


introduced. 


The officials and stockholders of the 
Quincy & Boston street railway were 
out in force at the City Council hear- 


ing to the Braintree & Weymouth 
Company for a location from East 
Braintree over VPenn’s hill to the 


Quincy Adams depot. The represen- 
tative of the petitioners agreed to all 
that was asked of the company, but 
the petition lacked the support of 
Quincy people. No one from this city 
spoke in favor, and the remonstrants 
did not see any advantages to the city, 
The local company in view of all this 
evidently did not see the necessity of 
being hostile. 


Great Improvement. 


One of the greatest improvements 
that has been made this season in 
bicycles is the Pierce's pneumatic 


cushion frame, which 
over rough roads 
noticeable; more so, than between a 
pneumatic and a solid tire. Those 
thinking of buying would do well to 
call at Herman H. Pratt's at 6 Wash- 
ington street, and examine this new in- 
vention.

Democrats Object to An Appoint- 
ment of the Mayor. 


Sewer Appropriation of 
$100,000 Held Up by 
War Scare. 


Hearing io Braintree & Wey- 
mouth Street Railway. 


Every member was present at Mon- 
day night’s meeting of the City Council. 
This meeting will be a memorial one 
as it was the first in the history of the 
city when there was any debate over 
the confirmation of any appointment 
of the Mayor. 

A communication was received from 
the Mayor appointing Edward J. 
McKeon a member of the board of 
Registrars of Voters for three years. 

Councilman Cain hoped the Council 
would not confirm the appointment as 
the Democratic City Committee ob- 
jected. Mr. McKeon left the Demo- 
cratic party with others last fall and 
supported the Republican candidate, 
and having done so was not competent 
to serve. 

A committee waited upon the Mayor 
but he refused to appoint the gentle- 
man they requested. If Mr. McKeon 
was confirmed there would be three 
Republicans and one Democrat on the 
board. 

Councilman Little said if he was not 
a Democrat he should not be confirmed 
and moved to lay on the table. 

Voted to lay on the table. 

A communication was received from 
the Mayor stating that he had ap- 
pointed George F. Pinkham a member 
of the Board of Managers of the Adams 
Academy in place of John O. Hall 
resigned. 

JURORS DRAWN. 

Assisted by Councilman Cain, the 
Mayor and City Clerk drew Elmer I. 
Gay, William S. Murray and Charles 
T. Melville as traverse jurors. 

NOT LEGAL. 

A communication was received from 
City Solicitor McAnarney in answer to 
the question of Councilman Parker 
which was: If the City Council had 
the right to raise say $40,000 of its city 
debt falling due this year by taxation 
and borrow the balance on notes of the 
city. 

City Solicitor McAnarney’s answer 
was that under the existing laws it 
could not be done. 

PETITIONS. 

A number of petitions for minor 
were received and referred to 
Committee on Licenses.

A petition was received from James 
A. Johnson and wife for State aid.

Councilman Hill presented a_peti- 
tion from Ward Six calling attention to

asking for an appropriation to put it 
in condition, to build a bicycle or 
running track around the and 
to cultivate grass on the fora 
ball field and for a few benches for

Grounds. 

REPORT OF COMMITTEES. 

The Committee on Finance reported 
favorable on transfer from 
Miscellaneous City receipts of 1897 as 
follows: 350 to pay of city officers of 
1897, and $ Public Burial 
Places of 1807. Both advanced a stage. 

Upon favorable reports licenses were 
voted to Charles H. Kendrick to collect 
junk, to Charles F. Wilde to sell 
fire works,to Natali Fosati as a common 
victualler. Ciriaco Zagarese was given 
leave to withdraw. 

State aid of $5 
Canley and $4 to 
were accepted. 

The Committee on Streets was 
against $300 for a stone culvert on 
Hancock street, Atlantic, and the re- 
port was accepted. 

PUBLIC HEARINGS. 

At 8 o'clock there was a public hear- 
ing on the petition of the Braintree 
and Weymouth street railway fora 
location from East Braintree to the 
Quincy Adams station in Quincy via 
Franklin street and Presidents avenue. 

W. 0. Chapman, Esq., of Canton ap- 
peared for the company. It had been 
established three years and operated 
lines in Braintree and Weymouth. It 
desired to build a suitable and proper 
railway, give frequent service, and run 
good cars. 

To Councilman Little, he explained 
the route more in detail. 

To Councilman Packard, he said he

has specially asked for the line but 
understood people wanted it. If location 
was granted tracks would be laid and 
cars run regularly. Would connect in 
Braintree at corner of Adams and Com- 
mercial streets. Had asked for location 
in Braintree, but it was still pending. 

To Councilman Parker —The company 
would use such weight of rail as city 
thought proper and pave if required. 

To Councilman Jameson—The com- 
pany was ready to give bonds to in- 
demnify city for accidents; also to 
keep the street used in good condition. 

To Councilman Cain, he said he 
thought his company would be ready 
to negotiate with the Quincy & Boston 
street railway company for free trans- 
fers over the West Quincy line of the 
latter road. 

REMONSTRANTS. 

Thomas F. Ferguson of 58 Franklin 
street objected to granting the loca- 
tion. All the abutters except one were 
against the grant. People on Franklin 
street were now well accommodated 
by the Q. & B. Penn's hill would be 
a dangerous one for the electric cars to 
come down. The street further was 
too narrow. 

To Councilman Parker 
street was 35 feet from 
sidewalk. 

To Councilman Jameson—Franklin 
street was about three-eighths of a mile 
long. About twenty families lived on 
it. Sidewalk was built on both sides 
part of the distance. 

John L. Miller was opposed. It was 
a vital question with him. He _ pre- 
sented a pe‘ition signed by 95 per cent. 
of the property holders remonstrating. 
Quincy should have one avenue out of 
town free from electrics for driving. 
He was not in the interests of any 
railway as he would like to see a little 
competition to reduce the fares be- 
tween all parts of the city to five cents. 
The new line however would be of no 
advantage to Quincy. 

Mr. Chapman was given an oppor 
tunity to reply. His company did not 
desire to build until the people wanted 
it, but the route seemed feasible, and 
he believed it would be of benefit to 
Quincy and Weymouth. The streets 
were wider than many now used by 
electrics in Weymouth. 

The hearing was closed and the order 
recommitted to the Committee on 
Streets. 

EAST ELM AVENUE. 

Alfred Shaw was the only one to ap- 
pear at the hearing for the acceptance 
of East Elm avenue. He said it was 
much travelled and needed a little 
fixing up. 

At 8.30 the publig hearing on the re- 
locations of High street was called. No 
one appeared for or against the petition 
and the hearing was closed and the 
order recommitted. 

MOTIONS, ORDERS, ETC. 

Councilman Parker offered an order 
instructing the Mayor to petition the 
Legislature for snch legislation as will 
enable the city of Quincy to 
bonds for the purpose of paying or

The order authorizing a loan of

The rules were suspended in order 
that it might take its final passage. 

Councilman Sidelinger then moved 
that the order be laid on the table as 
there was some misunderstanding as 
to the per cent. Voted. 

Adjourned at 8.45. 


Broken Jaw Set. 

Most people having a dog that had 
become the possesor of a broken jaw 
would probably have it killed, through 
ignorance not knowing what else to do. 
A Braintree grayhound saw a _ boy 
batting a ball. He endeavored and 
succeeded in catching the ball before 
the boy hit it, but be got the force 
of the bat on the lower jaw, completely 
breaking one side, so that the ends 
shot by each other and the animal was 
unable to close his mouth. 

Dr. Abele of Quincy manipulated the 
bones back into place and set the dog's 
jaw. Food was given from a syringe 
for four or five days. In about two 
weeks the splints were removed and 
the dog is in as good condition as ever. 
It is doubtful if from choice he plays 
ball again this season.

THE CURSE OF Tht COUNTRY 


Is not politics—jingoism—free silver—gold bugs--potato bugs—Christian science— 
taxes—cranks—religions—monopolists—trusts—labor organizations——secret socie- 
ties, or any old thing. No sir, the curse of this country fs yellow 
journalism. 

Take two or three typical New York journals and place them side by side. 
What do you find ? One paper tells you that their representative went to Mr. Pres- 
ident McKinley and made him do so and so, when the reporter couldn't get into the 
White House, even if he hada key. Another rival paper tells you McKinley is do- 
ing as they suggested two months ago. 


One paper gets out an extra saying Spain will do so and so, and the others say 
it will do so and so. And then they both get out extras 20 minutes later contra- 
dicting what they said in their last issue; and so it goes day after day, until the 
people don’t believe a word they say. These yellow journals create strife, keep 
people’s minds in a turmoil, print things that should never be réad, and throw dis- 
credit on decent papers that deal in facts. 

Let President McKinley run this Spain business and we won’t be dishonored, 
nor will we have cause to blush. If Tom Reed or Grovér Cleveland, or Geo. Wash- 
ington, or Mayor Sears were President, they'd be President because they were 
elected to do certain things, and they’d be in a better position to know more than 
the rest of us, and these yellow journals, about diplomacy and dynamite.

FELL INTO QUARRY. 


Sad Death of a Quarry Owner 
This Morning. 


Alphonse Reinhalter, a well known 
quarry owner, was killed at his quarry 
near the West Quincy depot this 
morning. It was about 9 o'clock when 
Mr. Reinhalter started to go down into 
the quarry hole ona ladder. The light 
snow which had fallen gathered on 
the rounds and caused his feet to slip 
when nearly twenty feet from the 
bottom, and loosing his hold he fell, 
striking heavily upon the sharp rocks 
below. He struck on his stomach and 
head, the force breaking several ribs 
and crushing his skull. 

When his employes, some of whom 
witnesed the accident, reached him 
he was unconscious. He was hoisted 
out of the quarry and taken to his 
home on Willard street where he died 
about an hour later. 

Mr. Reinhalter was an é6xperienced 
granite man, having been in the busi- 
ness for a number of years. Previous 
to going into the quarry business, he 
was engaged in the granite manu - 
facturing with his brother, ‘under the 
firm name of Reinhalter Bros. After 
the Quarry Railroad was put in 
operation he went into the quarry busi- 
ness alone, his plant being on the line 
of the Quarry railroad. He was about 
38 years of age and Jeaves a widow and 
several children.

Several Appropriations Made at 
Adjourned Town Meeting.

The attendance was not quite up to the 
usual number. The gallery was opened 
to ladies and children who desired to 
witness the debate. 

The first business was the appropria- 
tion of $1400 for the salary of superin-

AN IMPOSTOR. 


A Slick Olly Tongued Chap De- 
frauds a Milliner. 

A well appearing young man visited 
Quincy this morning and when he 
departed a little later he had $52.80 of 
Miss C. L. Bliss good money in his 
pocket. The fellow had an oily tongue 
and the circumstances under which the 
money was obtained showed that he 
was well posted in the affairs of Fisk & 
Jaynes of Boston, and the millinery 
business in general. 

It was but a little after 8 o’clock 
when the fellow entered Miss Bliss’ 
store to sell her some ribbons, repre- 
senting himself as Mr. Jaynes of the 
firm of Fisk & Jaynes. Among other 
matters that entered into the conversa- 
tion was bills and while talking on this 
subject Miss Bliss mentioned that 
she owed his firm a bill and would 
go in and pay it. He told her that was 
unnecessary as she could pay him as 
well, whereupon she gave him a check 
for $52.80 payable to Fisk & Jaynes. 
The fellow took the check and started 
out, then turned back with the remark 
that perhaps she had better certify 
that he was the person named on the 
face of it which she did. The fellow 
then called upon the Granite Bank, 
upon which the check was drawn, 
cashed it and took a train a few 
minutes later for Boston. 

Sometime later Miss Bliss had her 
suspicions aroused that all was not 
right aud telephoned to Messrs, Fisk 
and Jayne the circumstances. The 
reply was that they had no such person 
in their employ and had sent no man 
out to Quincy, and that the fellow was 
an imposter. 

Visiting the bank Miss Bliss learned 
that the fellow had cashed the check 
and inasmuch as she had certified to it 
she would be the loser. 

The police were notified and given a 
description of the fellow. He was 
about 5 feet, 3 inches tall, with gray 
hair and mustache. He wore a brown 
derby hat, light colored overcoat and 
light striped trousers. He carried a 
silver top umbrella and represented 
himself as being J. F. Jaynes. 


To Reduce Boston Licenses 
Given a Third Reading. 


Representatives Neycomb = and 
Thompson were recorded in favor of 
the bill reducing the number of liquor 
licenses in Boston. The bill to make 
the number one in 1000 instead of one 
in 500 was ordered toa third reading 
in the House Monday by a vote of 79 
to 56 on roll call. 

Mr. Fitzgerald of Boston opened the 
debate against the bill. 

Mr. Newcomb who reported the 
bill spoke in favor. He said that now 
in the North end district of Boston the 
saloons were one to every 172 of the 
population, and in the South end dis- 
trict one to every 200 of the population. 
Many of the places now licensed were 
disreputable and dangerous. Such 
‘dens of iniquity’? should not be 
allowed to exist, and they would not 
exist to such an extent if the number 
of licensed places was reduced one 
half. 

Several spoke for and against the 
bill, and Mr. Miller of Boston is 
to have hurled defiance at Mr. 
comb.

Serious Runaway. 

Albert Martell, a clerk employed by E 
H. Doble & Co. of West Quincy, me, 
with a serious accident Monday after- 
noon, and as a result he is now at the 
City Hospital suffering from a com- 
pound fracture of the left leg. 

It was shortly before 3 o'clock when 
the young man who was delivering 
goods was driving down Bates avenue, 
when for some reason the team came 
onto the horse. The animal im- 
mediately began to kick and then to run. 
Almost the first kick struck Martell 
in the leg causing a fracture and driv- 
ing the bone through the flesh. Parties 
near by took the horse by the head and 
undertook to stop him but it was not 
before he had drawn the team over a 
banking that he was finally stopped. 
As the horse went into the bank the 
team narrowly escaped striking a child 

|at play near by. Martell was taken into 

a store anda physician summoned, who 
ordered his removal to the City 
Hospital. 

The accident is an extremely un- 
fortunate one, as he is the only sup- 
port of his mother whose husband was 
| killed a short time ago in a quarry 
accident.

BOSTON OPINION, 


Resource of Force When Peaceful Efforts | 


Are Ineffective, 

Boston, April 5.—In dealing with the 
clamors of the peace upholders The Post 
argues: “Either the general policy of 
this government in dealing with the Cu- 
ban situation is wrong from the begin- 
ning, or it should be followed out to the 
end, whether that end be peace or 
war. If it is none of our business what 
Spain does with her American colonies 
on our shores we ought not to meddle 
at all in the fate of the suffering Cu- 
bans; but if it is our business to see that 
humanity is not outraged at our doors, 
and to uphold the cause of humanity 
and liberty we cannot stop at the firat 
indication of a disturbance of peaceful 
conditions. When the peaceful phases 
of our policy are exhausted without re- 
sult, there is a resource of force—in 
case we think the policy worth sus- 
taining. As Collector Warren is re- 
ported to have said: ‘It is time to act 
or forever hold our peace.’” 

“It seems to be acknowledged now on 
all hands,”’ says The Journal today, 
“that President McKinley has resolved 
upon a stalwart American policy, and 
that the devastation and torture of 
Cuba must come to an immediate end. 
The Journal believes with all its heart 
that the same wholesome and enlight- 
ened public sentiment which has sup- 
ported him thus far will support him 
with emphasis in his present determi- 
nation. It is just what The Journal 
has expected of President McKinley all 
along. It is just what it has assured 
its readers would be the inevitable and 
righteous outcome.” 

Predicating its criticism on the sup- 
position that the president will argue n 
favor of Cuban independence, The Globe 
says: “That such a declaration would 
be given most cordial support in both 
branches of congress there is no room 
to doubt. As regards consequences, 
the Spanish minister to this country, 
Polo y Bernabe, is on record as stating 
that recognition of Cuban independence 
would not necessarily mean war, and it 
is more than probable that for a timeat 
least, the cards of diplomacy would be 
played with more earnestness and vigor 
than ever, because of the very fact that 
the position of the United States regard- 
ing Cuba had become clearly defined be- 
fore the world.”

KNIFE THRUST DEADLY. 


Murder Committed on a Busy Street) ~_ 


In Boston, 


Unknown Desperado Killed a 
Drug Clerk. 


thecked Pursuit With Two Revolvers and 


Escaped. 


Boston, April 5.—A mysterious mur- 
@er was done last night at the drug 
store under the United States hotel. 
There were only two people present when 
the deed was committed. One was the 
man who was killed and the other was 
the man who killed him. The latter is 
at large. 

It is thought that the murderer tried 
to rob the murdered man. The latter 


was stabbed, it is thought, just when he) 


was getting the best of the robber. 

The murdered man is Charles Lamont 
Russell, 35 years old, who lived with 
his wife and two children in Roslindale. 
He was a clerk in the drug store of Will- 
fam A. Church, at Beach and Lincoln 
streets, under the United States ho- 
tel, and had worked in the store for 
several years. 

The motive for the crime, the police 
say, was the “result of jealousy,’”’ or 
some standing grudge, as no attempt 
was made to loot the place, which could 
have easily been accomplished, as the 
outer door of the safe stood open. 

The murder took place when the streets 


in the vicinity were well filled with peo- | 


ple. Those near the store saw Russell 
struggling with a man in his endeavor 
apparently to push him from the store. 
The two men, however, reached the 
street very quickly, and then Russell 
Was seen to fall on his face on the side- 
walk, while the unknown man started 
down Beach street on the run. Three 
young men who were quite near the 
store and saw the struggle between the 
two men, instead of running to the pros- 
trate form of Russell, started after his 
supposed assailant. They almost 
reached him, when he suddenly turned 


pocket, ordered them to stand back. 
They stopped at once before the desper- 
ate man, but as he again started to run 
they bravely followed in pursuit. The 
chase led them to the Boston and Al- 
bany railroad station, through which 
the man ran until he reached the end of 
the train shed. Here the man doubled 


the south end. 

In the meantime Russell had been con- 
veyed back to the store, but he was dead 
even before he was lifted from the side- 
walk. A hasty examination revealed a 
deep knife wound in the abdomen which 
undoubtedly severed an artery. Mr. 
Chapin, the proprietor of the store, ar- 
rived shortly afterwards, and after a 
hasty examination stated that while the 
man might have been trying to rob the 
| Store no cash was missing. 

Later th® police arrested a man, who 

gave his name as Charles Brown, on 
suspicion, but the three men who chased 
| Russell's assailant failed to identify 
him. As there was no one in the store 

at the time of the assault, the circum- 
stances leading to it are unknown and 


| 
| 


| until the missing man is apprehended | 


| will probably not be known. 


Bay State Legislature. . 
| Boston, April 5—By a vote of 79 to 
| 56 the house of representatives yester- 
| day ordered to a third reading the bill 
} to limit the number of places here which 
| may be licensed for the sale of intox- 
icating liquors to one for each 1000 popu- 
lation. If this bill should become a 
law the number of licenses in Boston 
would be reduced by one-half, the limit 
in this city now being one license for each 
500 population. The proposed law makes 
no change in the cities and towns out- 
side of Boston, 

The bill providing for the temporary 
release of children from truant schools, 
in cases where their parents are serious- 

| ly sick, was engrossed by the senate 
without debate. 

The most important matter acted upon 
was the bill extending the scope of the 
weekly payment law. The bill extends 
the operation of the weekly payment 
law to include employing contractors 
and manufacturers, On a yea and nay 
vote is was accepted—16 to 14. 

Senator George had a bill substituted 
for an adyerse report, which provides 
that the appointment and removal of 
license commissioners shall be by the 
mayor, subject to the approval of the 
board of aldermen. 

The bill to authorize the erection and 
maintenance of dams across streams not 
navigable, for making of ice ponds, was 
discussed at length, copiously amended 
and rejected on a yea and nay ycte—13 
to 13. 


Elections In Nutmeg State, 
Stamford, Conn., April 5.—At the elec- 
}tion in this city yesterday, William J. 
H. Bohannon, the present Democratic 
mayor, defeated his Republican oppo- 
j nent, Henry L. Eckhard, by 244 votes. 
This was more than double the majority 
Mayor Bohannon received last year. 
Charles Jones (Dem.) was elected coun- 
} cilman-at-large, which was the first time 
jin the history of the city that a Demo- 
|crat was elected to that office. 
Hartford, April 5.—A light vote was 
, polled in the city election yesterday. 


| Miles B. Preston, Democrat, was re- 


;tliected mayor over E. C. Frisbie, Re- 
E. N. Fitzgerald, 


George B. Newton, Republican. Re- 
publicans were successful in all other 
offices by large majorities, and both 
branches of the common council are

Women nowa- 
days do not have 
—" s+. >» to use a stream of water 
for a looking-glass. They have modern 
mirrors that will tell them very promptly 
whether their beauty is fading. A wom- 
an’s beauty fades very rapidly if she is 
troubled with some derangement of the 
distinctly feminine organism. Ignorance 
or carelessness in this respect frequently 


ses great suffering and irregularity in 
— er es and weak- 


fter life. Little irregulariti 
pa no in girlhood should be looked upon 
promptly and properly treated at once. 


t be too conscientious in 


Mothers canno , 
hrow aside the 


this respect, and cannot t i : 
prudery that is so prevalent upon this point 
too soon. Every young woman should 
know something @bout her own physical 
make-up, and the importance to her future 
of her local as well as general health. A 
woman who suffers from weaknesses pe- 
culiar to her sex will rapidly lose her 
beauty, her general health, her amiability 
and her usefulness and capability asa wife 
and housekeeper. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite 
Prescription promotes regularity of all fem- 
inine functions, gives sturdy health to the 
distinctly feminine organism and prepares 
it to meet the trials of wifehood and moth- 
erhood. ‘The ‘Favorite Prescription” 1S 
not a cure-all. It is intended for but one 
class of disorders and is good for no other. 
| Taken during the period of gestation, it 
makes parturition easy, and banishes the 
discomforts of the expectant months. All 
good medicine dealers sell it. 

“T wish to express my thanks for the good I 
have received from Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- 
scription,” writes Mrs. E. Scovill, of Bolton, 
Stephenson Co., Ills. ‘I have used it at differ- 
ent times for the last eight vears. It is the best 
| medicine for expectant mothers. I never tried 
it for that until my last baby. I had been very 
bad, almost helpless. I could not get out of bed 
alone, or even turn over. Last December I com- 
menced taking the ‘ Favorite Prescription,’ and 
could soon get in and out of bed as well as at any 
| time. On March 2gth I gave birth toan eleven 
| pound boy withont pain, and have since been as 
| well and healthy as I ever was."’ 


‘DOOR SAID TO BE 
OPEN FOR PEACE. 


Continued from page 1. 


} pretext will aiso be made for seizing 
| the Philippines and Porto Rico, but their 
| real objects are to force Cuban annex- 
| ation to the United States, or to sell 
her to the highest bidder, which would 
have to be Spain; for this government 
has gone on record that under no con- 
sideration will the United States tol- 
érate the transfer of Cuba to any Eu- 
| ropean power other than Spain. They 
| intend to ignore absolutely the fact that 
the Cubans have not only for the past 
three years, but also from 1868 to 1878, 
fought for their independence; that they 
have made sacrifices of blood and money 
| unequalled in the history of the world, 
and now intend to treat them, not like 
human beings with high political aspli- 
rations, but like cattle which pass as 
property with the title to the land. 
“The president is quoted as saying 
that he would rather have his adminis- 
tration go down in ignoming than wage 
“an unholy war. To come in at the 
eleventh hour and carry out this pro- 
gram of the money changers would be 
the most unholy war ever fought under 
the ban of a republic. Rather let the 
Cubans be exterminated fighting like 
men than be betrayed and sold like 
slaves.” 


Acted Like a Spy. 

Fort Monroe, Va., April 5.—Thereisa 
| good deal of excitement here over the 
alleged discovery of the presence of a 
Spanish spy. Several nights ago the 
sentry at Fort Monroe, whose post was 
nearest the newly arranged esplanade 
for rapid fire and disappearing guns, 
noticed a man skulking along the grassy 
side of the slope. He challenged, but 
received no answer. The next night 
the same thing occurred, and the sentry 
challenged and then fired. SJank car- 
tridges were in use, but since the in- 
cident Captain Hoskins, of the fort, is 
authority for the statement that the 
guard is armed with ball cartridges and 
orders to shoot. When Commodore 
Schley was at the Chamberlain hotel, 
a man of foreign appearance watched 
him closely. Friends of the com- 
modore and Mrs. Schley noticed the man 
several times. He is registered at the 
hotel, but has avoided all the guests. 
While the sentries at the fort can shoot 
a stranger intruding, there is no law in 
force by which at present he can be ap- 
| prehended. 


A Statement Confirmed. 

Rome, April 5.—The vatican refuses 
to publish the text of the communica- 
tions which have passed between the 
pontiff and Madrid, but the statement 
that his holiness has asked Spain to 
arrange for a suspension of hostilities 
in Cuba is confirmed. 

A local paper, reviewing the situation 
tmofficially, says: “We must regard 
America’s demands as excessive, es- 
pecially as Spain has proposed to sub- 
mit the whole administration question 
to the insular parliament. It is dif- 
ficult to perceive on what pretext Wash- 
ington could declare war, even if so dis- 
| posed, and we have confidence that the 
| wisdom and moderation of President 
McKinley, with the practical common 
| sense of the Americans, will avert the 
| horrors of war.” 


The Maine Episode. 

Washington, April 5.—Senator Mitchell 
of Wisconsin, who is one of the most 
conservative men in the senate and has 
| never advocated intervention in Cuba 
until since the receipt of the report of 
the Maine disaster, received a letter yes- 
terday from Paul D. Carpenter of Mil- 
waukee, a son of Matt Carpenter, in 
which an argument for peace is made 
and in which the report of the Spanish 
court of inquiry is cited as ground for 
not accepting as conclusive the finding 
of our own court that the Maine was de- 
stroyed by an external explosion. To 
| this letter Senator Mitchell replied as 
| follows: 
“My dear sir—Your favor of the 2nd 
| Inst. to hand. I have never favored 
armed interference in Cuban affairs. I 
did not feel that we were bound to 
redress the wrongs of Cuba by resort- 
ing to war; but the Maine episode will 
notdown. Over-refinement of argument 
is useless. It stands before the Ameri- 
can people a plain case of treachery. 
Perfidy and cruelty run in the Spanish 
blood; there is litt‘e else in its history. 
Any nation that would permit such an 
outrage to go unpunished would not de- 


serve to exist. There are some things 


| worse than war: there are sume things 


better than money.” 


Emphatic Protest Uttered. 

New York, April 5—At a meeting of 
the New York Baptist Ministers’ con- 
ference yesterday the following reso- 
lution was unanimously adopted: 
view of the published suggestion from 


Madrid that the pope mediate between | 
Spain and the United States in the Span- | 


ish and Cuban difficulty, we, the mem- 
bers of the New York Baptist ministers’ 
conference, desire to utter our emphatic 
protest against any present or future 
recognition of the pope by our govern- 
ment. We regard such recognition as 


in direct violation of the principle of | 
separation between the church and the} 


state which has been , thoughtfully 
adopted by us. It would be a precedent 
likely to be used in the future to our, 


Giscomfort, if not to the discomfort of | 


our civic affairs. While appreciating 
the propriety of his counselling the 
church which recognizes him as its re- 
ligious instructor and head, we do not 
regard him as having any office with 
which our government should hold offi- 
cial relations.” 


Suggests an Armistice. 


London, April 5.—The Rome corre- 
spondent of The Daily Mail says 
“Archbishop Ireland has cabled depre- 


cating a formal offer of intervention, 
and explaining that the pope could only 


intervene successfully by recognizing 
| the Monroe doctrine, which would be 


impolitic. A rumor is current here that 
| Emperor William first broached the idea 
|of papal mediation, and was warmly 
seconded by Austria. 

“The solution the vatican proposes is 
an armistice to save the Spanish troops 
during the rainy season, allay excite- 
ment on both sides and prepare the way 
for Cuban independence in the autumn. 
Spain is agreeable to this; but there is

Until Peace Is Proclaimed. 

Boston, April 5.—At a meeting of the 
Ancient and Honorable Artillery com- 
pany in Faneuil hall last night resolu- 
tions were adopted tendering to 
president the company's warmest 
thanks for his earnest efforts to insure 
peace between the United 
Spain. The resolutions state that while 
earnestly hoping that war may be 
averted, yet should national honor or 
saftey demand it as a last resort the 
members of the company, as its members 
have done for more than two centuries 
and a half, pledge their unfaltering sup- 
port to the government until peace with 
that safety and that honor sustained 
shall be proclaimed.

| does not stop, the president might have 
to yield on the recognition of Cuban in- 
dependence, although they admitted 
that if he did he would not necessarily 
have to perform the executive act of rec- 
ognition immediately after action by 
congress. However, the president may 
satisfy this demand by assurances that 
a@ recognition of independence will follow 
intervention at the proper time. 

Many believe that recognition or in- 
dependence should be the first step and 
that intervention should follow as a nec- 
essary corollary; and these are keenly 
disappointed that the method of pro- 
cedure which they favor does not meet 
the president's views; but a majority of 
the foreign relations committee of the 
senate and the foreign affairs committee 
of the house are believed to be willing to 
accept a proposition which involves in- 
tervention with independence in view 
60 long as the recognition of the right 
of independence is written in the reso- 
lution. In any event, however marked 
may be the differences now, it is believed 
that when the test comes there will be 
no breaking away on the part of those 
who favor what seenis to them to be the 
more logical and consistent policy. 

SPANISH MINISTER. 
An Interview In Which He Says He Is 
Hopeful of Peace. 

Washington, April 6,—‘I am still hope- 
ful of peace,” remarked the Spanish 
minister Wednesday in an interview. 
“That may seem optimistic at a moment 
when such passions are aroused, such 
naval and military preparations are 
going on, and when the current of public 
sentiment seems to oe that war is in- 
evitable. I cannot say that I base my 
view that peace will prevail upon ary 
direct official information. On the con- 
trary itis my individual judgment, based 
solely upon the conviction that in these 
enlightened days two self-respecting 
nations, made up of men and women of 
high aspirations and noble instincts, 
cannot and will not resort to the last 
brutal expedient of war. It would be 
too wanton, too criminal, too offensive 
to all the dictates of civilization and 
christianity for such an awful conse- 
quence to be brought about. 

“You ask me as to the latest phases 
of negotiation. Of this I cannot speak 
owing to the restrictions of my position. 
I can only say that despite the animosi- 
ties aroused, I believe that calm counsel 
will yet prevail and that the United 
Ftates and Spain will be able to solve 
this problem on a basis just and honor- 
able to all eoncerned, and without re- 
gourse to arms. I fully recognize the 
earnestness, patriotism and _ intense 
vigor of the American people, but I 
feel that it is not improper for me to 
suggest that at such a profoundly sol- 
emn moment earnestness and strength 
should be tempered with can judgment 
and a disposition to look at both sides of 
the question and not alcne at one side,” 


CHANDLER FOR’ WAR. 


Wants a Declaration at Once and a Vig- 
orous Prosecution Afterward. 

Washington, April 6.—Senator Chand- 
ler wants the United States to drop its 
palteririg policy and “immediately to de- 
Ziare war against Spain, and to main- 
tain that war until the people of Cuba 
are made free from Spanish starvation 
and cruelty, and the government of the 
island is firmly established as an inde- 
pendent republic.” This was one of 
many utterances of like tenor delivered 
in the course of his speech at Tuesday's 
session. Speeches were delivered also 
by Mr. Turner of Washington, Mr. Harris 
of Kansas and Mr. Kenny of Delaware, 
all of whom took strong ground for 
vigorous and instant action by the 
United States. Mr. Turner took sub- 
stantially the same position as that of 
Mr. Chandler, basing his demand for 
action upon the Maine catastrophe. 

Mr. Turner said that it was immaterial 
whose was the hand that sent the elec- 
tric spark on its fatal mission against 
the Maine. Spain was in every sense 
responsible for the act, an act that 
ought properly to be resented by the 
United States. From the time of Alva 
down to the time of Weyler the record 
of Spain had been one ef murder and 
assassination, brutality and cruelty, 
rapine and arson. The Spaniard of 1500 
and the Spaniard of 1900 are one and the 
same irdividual. It had remained for 
the Maine Gisaster to demonstrate that 
civilization had passed the Spaniards by, 
and that they were now as ferocious, 
brutal, cunning and treacherous as they 
ever were. This government should act 
at once, 

Profound attention was attracted by 
a speech delivered by Mr. Turpie of In- 
diana. Briefly but scathingly he re- 
viewed the Spanish conduct of Cuban 
affairs, and declared in the strongest 
terms for intervention that would mean 
something—that would drive Spain from 
control of every foot of territory in the 
western hemisphere. The speech wasa 
clear, concise statement of the position 
in which this country had been placed 
by Spanish outrages, insults and crimes. 

A debate which occurred in the execu- 
tive session would indicate that no mat- 
ter what might be the character of the 
report of the committee on foreign re- 
lations, the resolution would cause a 
serious and perhaps prolonged discus- 
sion. It emphasized the fact that there 
are two elements in the senate, one for 
independence with intervention and an- 
other for intervention alone, and these 
two factions will fight vigorously for 
thelr ideas. The session was devoted 
to a general discussion of the policy to 
be pursued towards Spain, and developed 
the fact that much opposition would be 
made to the acceptance of a policy in 
line with the president's desires. The 
question was raised by Senator Allen, 
who made a long speech predicting much 
dissatisfaction in the country at large 
with a policy that did not go to the ex- 
tent of giving the Cubans their entire 
independence of the mother country. 
He was followed by other speakers in 
the same line, and the fact was made 
very evident that if the committee on 
foreign relations should bring in a reso- 
lution merely complying with the presi- 
éent’s request and stopping short of a 
declaration for independence, there 
would be an effort in the senate to amend 
it so as to accomplish this end. More 
than one senator announced that he 
would offer such an amendment, and 
many moré said that they would support 
an effort in the direction of adding the

maecpenaence deciaration to a resolution 
providing simply for intervention. The 
committee was therefore urged not to 
yield to the wishes of the president, but 
to stand for complete action. 

The greater part of the speechmaking 
was in opposition to the executive, and 
no one attempted to outline the probable 
action of the committee. There was also 
a recurrence to the intention of the 
president to withhold the Cuban con- 
sular correspondence, and a suggestion 
Was made that if this matter was of a 
character too inflammable to permit of 
its being made public, it be given to the 
senate in secret session. A resolution 
Was offered tiMt the entire Cuban ques- 
tion should be considered behind closed 
doors on account of the probability of 
utterances which would afford informa- 
tion totheenemy.. This Proposition was 
debated, but without reaching a con- 
clusion. 

While the senate was in executive ses- 
zion a formidable element was consid- 
ering what should be done in case reso- 
lutions should be reported for recog- 
nition of independence. This ‘faction 
Was composed of what is known as the 
conservative element on the Republi- 
can side. Their conference was held in 
Senator Aldrich’s committee room and 
among those present were Senators 
Hanna, Platt of Connecticut, Spooner, 
Hale, Fairbanks and Aldrich. Senator 
Allison was also there for a brief time. 
A general purpose was expressed to op- 
pose the adoption of any report that 
should recommend a recognition of Cu- 
ban independence and which did not in- 
deed confine itself to the support of the 
president's recommendation for inter- 
vention only. This position was taken 
because of the generally expressed con- 
viction among the senators present that 
in case of war with Spain and the 
triumph of the arms of the United States, 
this country should be left free to dig- 
pose of Cuba as she might see proper. 
Many of them expressed dissatisfaction 
with the Cuban administration, and the 
opinion was given that the recognition 
of independence at this time would bind 
the United States to its support and to 
guaranteeing its bonds, giving to the 
Cuban junta a position of influence and 
power to which it is not, In their opinion, 
entitled. 

The prevailing opinion among senators 
is that the committee will recede from 
its position for both independence and 
intervention and report a resolution in 
accordance with the president's recom 
mendation for intervention, 

The crowds which thronged the gal- 
leries of the house yesterday were dis- 
appointed. There were no outbreaks of 
any kind on the floor on the Cuban ques- 
tion. The whole day was spent on the 
private calendar, with the result that 
several bills were passed, among them 
one to pay the heirs of John Roach, the 
shipbuilder, $330,000 on a claim which 
has been pending a dozen years, and an- 
other to pay O. C. Bosbyshell, superin- 
tendent of the Philadelphia mint, $17,000 
abstracted from the gold vaults by a 
weight clerk. 

At the night session 23 pension bills 
were favorably acted upon, among them 
being the following: Ann M. Smith, 
widow of Major General Andrew J. 
Smith, at $30 per month; Adolphine 
Krez, widow of Brigadier General Con- 
rad Krez, at $30, and to increase the pen- 
sion of General James W. McMillen at 
$50 per month. 


The “McKinley” Senators. 

Washington, April 6—The senators 
who believe in unqualified submission 
to the presidential will have issued a 
statement in support of their position in 
which they say: 

“If the United States is to intervene 
for the pacification of Cuba, it should 
do so free-handed; it should not tie 
itself fast to a form of government 
which afterwards may prove an im- 
pediment to those reforms which ought 
to be effected in the island. The United 
States ought to be free to insist upon 
such a government as will be of prac- 
tical advantage to the United States, 
not by way of annexation, but in those 
matters of commercial advantage which, 
from the location of the island and the 
relations of this country to it, we ought 
to expect. If we recognize the inde- 
pendence of this government now it is 
free to grant us those privileges or to 
deny themtous. If it denies them when 
we think we are entitled to them, we 
can only get them by the assertion of 
force which certainly would be embar- 
rassing. Looking at it from the stand- 
point of our own interests and not from 
the standpoint of the interests of those 
who are supporting the Cuban republic, 
every argument and every consideration 
favors a course which will leave this 
government free to deal with the future 
of the island as Its interest may dictate 
when the time comes.” 


Failure to Secure a Settlement. 

Washington, April 6.—The statement 
is made that the failure of the effort to 
secure a settlement of the war between 
Spain and Cuba was due to the refusal 
of the government of the United States 
to remove its fleet from Key West. 
Spain made removal a condition pre- 
cedent to her offering an armistice, with 
the end in view of granting the indepen- 
dence of Cuba, and when the proposi- 
tion was brought to the attention of 
the administration it was met with re- 
fusal, though not until after it had been 
seriously considered. 

The congressional opponents of a war 
policy who had counted upen the ac- 
ceptance of this condition admit that the 
outlook for peace has grown almost 
hopeless since this determination was 
reached. 


Lee Not Afraid, 

Washington, April 6.—Consul General 
Lee does not regard himself or the other 
consular officers in Cuba in ‘any special 
danger at this time, and in reply to the 
suggestion that it might be expedient 
for him to hasten his departure, he has 
informed the department that about 10 
days would be necessary for the consuls 
throughout the island to arrange for

The good work continues, two new

7.30 o’clock by the

of the business of the meeting, the 
warden announced that the entertain- 
ment committee had a treat in store for 
the members, and so it proved to be, 
in the form of a genuine New England

of the good things spread before them. 

The supper was followed by speeches 
from Warden Souther, Vice Warden

There is no reason why either of the

law says that the board shall be con-

Democrats. The politics of voters are 
not judged by city elections. If they 
were it would be difficult find a 
Democrat who has_ not at time

Mayor or the City Council. The 
Council of 1898 has a precedent too, 
for when Mayor Hodges was in the ex-

who had supported him for Mayor. 
Mr. Edward J. McKeon is undoubtedly 
a Democrat according to the principles

him as a Councilman from that ward. 
If the Democrats prefer that a man in

People In Two Cities Closely 
Concerned. 


Two Arrests Made In Boston and One In 
New York. 


Boston, April 6.—Two men are now 
under arrest in this city anda third in 
New York charged with attempting to 
utter forged notes, while a fourth is 
under police surveillance. The men in 
custody are: John W. Cotton, Henry D. 
O. Kurros, both said to be residents of 
Boston, and Inspector McCloskey of 
New York has John L. Tucker of that 
city under arrest. Michael Keys of 
Roston will probably appear in court in 
the case, but Chief Watts says he will 
not be arrested unless he attempts to 
leave the state. 

One of the notes is for $1500 and two 
are for $1000.each. They are all signed 
by John Stewart company and counter- 
signed by John Stewart. The John 
Stewart company makes sewing ma- 
chines, with an office on Canal street, 
New York, and John Stewart is pres- 
ident of the company. It seems that 
last Friday, Cotton offered Andrew F. 
Leatherbee, a prominent lumber dealer 
in this city, a note for $1500 in payment 
for a large order of lumber. The note 
was signed by John Stewart of New 
York and endorsed by John Stewart. 
Leatherbee discovered that the signa- 
ture and endorsement were forgeries, 
and Cotton was arrested. 

The latter claimed that the note was 
given him by Keys, and when Keys was 
subsequently arrested he in turn said 
that Kurros, who is a real estate dealer, 
gave him the note. A letter was found 
upon the person of Keys from a man 
signing himself as John L. Tucker of 
New York, and it is alleged that the 
writer asked Keys to return certain 
notes which he had in his possession and 
which Tucker had intimated he had 
previously asked Keys to return. 

Simultaneously with the alleged at- 
tempt to utter the paper at Leatherbee’s 
office, Kurros is said to have given a 
note for $1000, also signed by the John 
Stewart company, to Frank E. Wyman, 
whe is agent for Steinfeldt & Rosen- 
blat of New York. This note is said to 
have been forwarded to the latter con- 
cern and is probably in its possession. 
Kurros, who formerly worked for the 
Stewart company, is said to have told 
the police that he obained the note from 
Tucker also. 

Cotton was searched at the inspectors’ 
office, and it is alleged that two notes 
were found on his person for $100 each, 
signed also by the John Stewart com- 
pany. 


Extent of the Damage. 

Shawneetown, Ills., April 6.—Twenty- 
three unknown dead, a possibility that 
the list may reach 30, 1500 people in 
actual need of the necessaries of life, 
700 people homeless and damage to the 
amount of $200,000 are the net result of 
the flood which swept through Shawnee- 
town late Sunday afternoon. Not one 
of the bodies has been recovered, and 
it is not likely that they will be until 
the waters subside, which will be in 10 
days or a fortnight. 

There is no danger of further dam- 
age. The entire town is buried under 
from 10 to 15 feet of water, with the ex- 
ception of the houses on the embank- 
ment immediately fronting the Ohio 
river. All of these have water in the 
cellars, and the most of them are flooded 
to the second story. 

The levee broke on the north side of the 
town, sweeping what is known as the 
first, second and third wards clean of 
all buildings. All of the people who were 
drowned met their fate in the first and 
northern part of the second ward, near- 
est tothe break. There is a large semi- 
circular dyke to the south of the town, 
enclosing that side as the broken dyke 
enclosed it on the north. Down the 
edge of this dyke and in the town proper 
is a tangled mess of trees, shrubs and 
brushwood, Into the curve formed by 
the soutlrern dyke the bodies were car- 
ried by the flood, and all of them are 
supposed to be scattered along the south- 
ern dyke, which is nearly a mile in 
length from the western end of the curve 
to the eastern end. 


Autocrat of the L. A. W. 

Baltimore, April 6.—Chairman Mott of 
the L. A. W. racing board has issued the 
following bulletin: ‘Special permits to 
exceed the prize limit in sprint races 
which would conflict with the national 
championships on national circuit dates 
will not be granted, but permits will be 
given to exceed the prize limit in middle 
distance races or any other events that 
will not conflict with the national cham- 
pionships. 

“Racing men who have made contracts 
which have been approved by the chair- 
man must comply faithfully with the 
terms. The same requirement holds 
good with the promoter or track owner 
who is the only party to the contract. 
Any wilful violation would be in the na- 
ture of ‘unfair dealing connected with 
cycle racing,’ and will be subject to a 
penalty, effective in this country and in 
Europe. 

“No person must act asa referee of a 
race meet except those prescribed in the 
rules on page 20, and ewen they must 
not be promoters, managers, owners, 
trainers or financially interested in the 
tracks or meets.” 


What Mr. Jones Said, 

Dover, N. H., April 6.—The most im- 
portant testimony of Tuesday in the trial 
of Alfred Jones was brought out in crogs- 
examination of Dr. Pillsbury. He said 
one day when making a visit to Mrs. 
Jones he heard the voice of a man in 
the sick room say, “I want some money.” 
The woman's voice said, “You cannot 
have it.” The man replied that he was 
going to have it. There was more con- 
versation in this vein between them, 
and the last thing he heard the man say 
was: “I will have it, or there will be 
a corpse in the house within a fortnight.” 
The doctor said that then William Jones, 
father of the defendant, came out of the 
room the witness went in, finding only 
Mrs. Jones there.

—The origin of the menu began with | 
the Duke Henry of Brunswick, who 
was first observed in the intervals of a 
banquet to scan carefully a long strip 
of paper by the side of his plate, and | 
when the curious guests ventured to} 
enquire into the nature of his studies | 
he explained that it was a sort of pro- 
gramme of the dishes which he had 
commanded from the cook, to the 
intent that if some delicacy which 
especialy appealed to bim were marked 
for a late stage in the repast he might | 
carefully reserve his appetite for it. 


The simplicity and beauty of the idea 
appealed instantly to the good Duke’s 
leconyives, and the menu card from 
that moment became an institution. 
In its old-fashioned form the bill was 
usually written large, on cards of such | 
imposing dimensions that room for | 
one only could be found at each end| 
of the board.

DESPAIR OF A 


PEACEFUL OUTCOME. 


Continued from page 1, 


thelr departure, éxcept fn case of 
emergency. Definite action has not yet 
been taken in regard to the removal of 
the consuls, but it seems probable that 
they will be recalled within the next day 
ortwo. The government has given Gen- 
eral Lee instructions to see to the safety 
of our consuls and all Americans in Cuba, 
and has given him full authority to go 
to whatever expense is necessary, includ- 
ing the hire of vessels, to secure this end. 


The Armistice Proposal. 

Rome, April 6.—There was an active 
exchange of telegrams yesterday after- 
noon between the Spanish minister for 
foreign affairs in Madrid and Mer. 
Merry Del Val, the pope's private cham- 
berlain, with a view of drawing up, with 
the consent of the pope, the exact terms 
of the armistice for Cuba which will 
be proposed, it is said, by the pope im- 
mediately after the terms are agreed on. 
In clerical circles it appears to be un- 
derstood that President McKinley may 
bring pressure to bear upon the insur- 
gents to induce them to accept an armis- 
tice, and it is understood the holy see 
will then exert similar influence through 
the episcopacy in Cuba. It is hoped 
here that the armistice proposal will be 
definitely drawn up today or Thursday. 


The European Meven en’. 

Washington, April 6.—The news that 
Great Britain had finally declined to 
enter the concert of the powers places 
a new and most important condition on 
the European movement and one which 
may defeat it. It has been known that 
Great Britain was holding out most 
strongly against any tender of media- 
tion on the ground that it would look 
like outside pressure to force the hand 
of the United States. The attitude of 
Great Britain has been that the war in 
Cuba should cease in the interest of hu- 
manity at large. 

Sir Julian Pauncefote had a conference 
with the French ambassador, Mr. Cam- 
bon, whose government has been most 
instrumental in securing a concert of 
the powers. Certain circumstances left 
ne room for doubt that the two ambas- 
gadors were conferring concerning the 
course of their governments on the Cu- 
ban trouble. 

Archbishop Ireland went to the office 
of Assistant Secretary Day. He was 
admitted at once, evidently by appoint- 
ment. The archbishop remained about 
half of an hour, and soon after his de- 
parture the assistant secretary started 
for the White House. The archbishop 
declined to discuss the purposes of his 
calls, saying it was merely to pay his 
respects, and he showed annoyance when 
inquiry was made as to the direction of 
the papal influences. While the call re- 
newed the talk about papal mediation, 
a general impression prevailed through- 
out official circles that no mediation by 
the pope, and no influences in that di- 
rection, would be seriously entertained 
by the United States government. 


The Madrid Editors, 

Madrid, April 6.—The Globe considers 
that the “manifesto of the Cuban gov- 
ernment to the insurgents, following the 
one to President McKinley, decides 
finally the permanence on the island of 
the Spanish flag” and adds: “If the 
American warships remove from the 
vicinity of the island, the last sparks of 
the insurrection are extinguishable with 
the foot. The Spanish government is 
awaiting the solution of the event com- 
mitted to the pope's hands. The in- 
terviews of the ambassadors of France 
1 Austria with Mr. Gullon, the min- 


ister for foreign affairs, and also the 
nurtio’s calls on the German ambassador 
and others were in regard to the pope’s 


task. Diplomats believe that the official 
communication offering mediation 
leaves Rome for Madrid today.” 


The Liberal says it ‘fears the ray of 
light serves only to show the darkness, 
and that the guiding thread leading the 
way out of the labyrinth is snapped. 
Amid the oonflicting versions of the 
papal intervention, it is impossible to de- 
cide the real truth. One thing is cer- 
tain—that is the necessity for ending 
this ambiguous situation which, if pro- 
longed, ruins Spain as well as loses Cuba. 
The nation will stand no more delay. 
Whatever it may be, there must be an 
immediate solution.” 


BOSTON OPINION. 


The Advertiser Explains What Patriotic 
Citizens Propose to Do. 

Boston, April 6.—In a strong article 
on the situation as it is today, The Ad- 
“We take it for granted 
that those who have come forward with 
So much zeal—some of them for the first 
time—to express their confidence in Mc- 
Kinley’s wisdom, knowledge, firmness, 
peaceableness, statesmanship and per- 
fect trustworthiness as the head of the 


vertiser says: 


nation in this supreme hour, mean what! 


they say. Ifso, they mean to follow him 
in war or peace. They mean to hold up 
his hands in every part of his arduous 
task, and not in one part only. They 
mean to stand by him in his exertions 
for the independence of Cuba as well as 
in his exertions to avert war with Spain. 
They trust his judgment both as to the 
time to negotiate and as to the time to 
break off negotiations. They stand 
ready to applaud him If he decides that 
war is inevitable just the same as while 
he yet hopes that peace is possible.” 

The Post considers it “clear that 
President McKinley realizes that the 
congress of the United States will not 
abrogate its authority and its duty to 
take action in this matter, and that it 
is in no mood longer to delay actien of 
some kind. The president, while vig- 
orously, persistently, striving for peace 
so long as there remains the slightest 
prospect of an amicable settlement of 
difficulties, realizes that an open breach 
with congress at this time would dimin- 
ish his power and influence in all future 
developments. He undoubtedly prefers 
to lead rather than to be driven.” 

The Journa!’s Cuban leader today says: 
“Congress and the president approach 
the first momentous step in the settle- 
ment of the Cuban crisis with a unity 
which is creditable to American patriot- 
ism and to American government. In 
spite of persistent misrepresentation by 
a few reckless newspapers on one side 


and on the other, itis now apparent that! 
the White House and the capitol stand | 


on firm, c 
tainly true of the lawmakers from our 
own commonwealth. * * Thus agreed 
upon the method, as well as upon the 
burbose. president and congress can pro- 


ceed in their notle task of Dringfhg peace 
; and freedom to war-torn, distracted

“If Mr. McKinley has still any faint | 


notion that this country would tolerate 


the use of our army and navy in alliance | negro, 22 years of age, jis at the Massa- 


with Spain in the wretched work of 
erushing out the brave men whose motto 
is ‘Independence or death.’ The Globe 
egserts that “he is destined to be speed- 
ily and roughly disillusionized. Peace 
at such a price would be bought at the 
cost of lasting dishonor to the United 
States.” 


Bloodshed After Election. 

Brownsville, Tex., April 6.—The city 
election resulted in bloodshed, because 
of the contest between the two factions 
known as the reds and the blues. Ina 
fight on the main street two men were 
killed. Shortly after this the members 
of a mob broke into the jail where the 
murderer was confined and killed him. 
They dragged his body out into the 
street and were about to burn it when 
cooler counsel prevailed and it was 
taken to an undertaker’s. 


The red ticket, with Eben Cobb at its | guest Congressman De Armond of Mis- 


head for mayor, was defeated. John 
Carson, nominee of the blues, was vic- 
torious. The reds set up a cry of fraud. 
Counter-charges were made by the 
blues, and the affair culminated in the 
drawing of firearms. Editor Carter 
Guillen, a blue, received the first wound, 
being shot by a man named Charles. 
Rushing into the street, Guillen sprang 
on a horse and drew his pistol. Jailer 
Cobb, who was also mounted, attempt- 


ed to arrest Guillen, but the latter shot | 


and fatally wounded the jailer. Con- 
stable Cobb, who rushed to his brother's 
assistance, Vas shot and killed by 
Guillen. Lorenzo Guillen, the son of the 
editor, then fired a shot into the con- 
Stable’s body. 

Guillen was soon arrested and to- 
gether with Mis son was jailed. A mob 
of 300 men marched tothe jail. Thedoor 


Was battered down and in two minutes | 


Guillen was dead, his body perforated by 
bullets. During the excitement the boy 
escaped. The Cobbs were brothers of 
the red candidate for marshal. 


Meetings In Maine. 
Westbrook, Me., April 6.—At the an- 
Hual meeting of the grand lodge of the 
Loyal Orange institution, a resolution 
Was passed upholding the government 


of the United States in any step it may | 


take which has for its object the freedom 


of Cuba from Spanish rule, and protest- | 


ing against any recognition of the pope 
as having any office with whick our gov- 
ernment should have official relations. 
The following officers were elected: 
Grand master, Rev. C. C. Phelan, West- 
brook; deputy, George Gibson, Auburn; 
secretary, G. P. Clarke, Houlton; treas- 
urer, J. H. Ruth, Linnius; chaplain, D.

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY. 
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia. 


This may read as though we were 
putting it a little strong because it is 


generaly thought by ‘the 
form is incurable, or practically so. 
But we have long since shown 
Dyspepsia is curable nor is it 
difficult matter as it first 

The trouble 
they are continually dieting, 
themselves or going to opposite 
tremes or else deluging the 
over burdened stomach with ** bitters,” 

‘*aftedinner pills,’’ ete., which in- 
variably increase the difficulty even if 
in some cases they do give a slight 
temporary relief. Such treatment of 
the stomach simply makes matters 
worse. What the stomach wants is a} 
rest. Now how can the stomach be-| 
comes rested, recuperated and at the} 
same time the body nourished and | 
sustained. 


ex- 


This is the great secret and this is 
also ithe secret of the uniform success 
of Stuart’s Dypepsia Tablets. This is 
a comparatively new remedy, but its 


success and popularity leaves no doubt 
as to its merits. 


The tablets will digest the food 
anyway, regardless of condition of 
stomach. 


The sufferer from dyspepsia accord- 
ing to directions is to eat an abund- 
ance of good wholesome food and use} 
the tablets before and after each meal 
and the result will be that the food | 
will be digested no matter how bad 
your dyspepsia may be, because as_ be- 
fore stated, the tablets will digest the 
food even if the stomach is wholly 
inactive. To illustrate our meaning 
plainly if you take 1,800 grains of 
meat, eggs or ordinary food and place 
it in a temperature of 98 degrees and 
put with it one of Stuart’s dyspepsia 
Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs 
almost as perfectly as if the meat was! 
enclosed within the stomach. 


The stomach may be ever so weak 
yet these tablets will perform the work 
of digestion and the body and brain 
will be properly nourished aud at the | 
same time a radical, lasting cure of 
dyspepsia‘ will be made because‘ the 
much abused stomach will be given, 
to some exent a much needed rest. 


Your druggist will tell you that of | 
the many remedies advertised to cure} 
dyspepsia none of them has given so| 
complete and general satisfaction as 
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablet and not least 
in importance in these hard times is 
the fact that they are also the cheapest | 
and give the most good for the least 
money.

Man at » Hospital Im Serious Condition 
From Stab Wounds. 

Boston, April 6.—William Jordan, a 
chusetts general hospital suffering from 
five stab wounds. One is directly over 
the heart, and the others are in the 
left shoulder and arm. His conditionis 
serious. It was learned that Jordan re- 
ceived the wounds at his home. The 
assailant is well known to the police, and 
officers have been detailed from half a 
gozen stations to search for him. The 
cause of the assault is not known. 

At a meeting of the executive com- 
mittee of the democracy, plans for the 
reception of William J. Bryan were dis- 
cussed. Mr. Bryan is expected to reach 
Boston on April 16, remaining until the 
19th. The final plans were not made, 
but there will be a dinnes, probably in 
the afternoon of April 16, and in the 
evening a meeting, for which Faneuil 
hall will be secured. In addition to Mr. 
Bryan, the committee will have as Its 


souri, and it is hoped that Senator White 
of California will be present. | 

Illuminating gas was responsible for 
two deaths, and a third victim is ina 
critical condition at the hospital. Ig- 
norance on the part of three men who 
arrived in this city from Poland Tues- 
day caused the fatality. 

The Massachusetts Democratic club) 
elected officers last night as follows: | 
Philip J. Doherty, president; William 
H. Baker, vice president; Robert Treat 
Paine, Jr., second vice president; Philip 
Cc. Nickerson, secretary; George H. 
Hayward, assistant secretary; Dr. E. 8. 
Taylor, treasurer.

of Harvard college came up for discus- Is ready at any time from 5 A. M. till 12 Pp. M. to 


its engrossment stage. Mr.! 
Myers of Cambridge precipitated the de- | 
bate by moving an amendment striking | 
out the referendum section, which was | 
added at the previous consideration of | 
the measure. The amendment was 
adopted, 100 to 53. The bill was then 
passed to be engrossed. 

Ought not to pass was reported ona 
bill for compensation to cities and towns 
for expenses incurred in providing school 
facilities for children who are a public | 
charge. 

In the senate the substitution of a bill 
for an adverse report from the railroad 
committee for further legislation for the 
transportation of bicycles prevailed. 

Senator Worcester explained 
that a bill for the protection of certain 
birds was designed to extend to su 
birds the protection now accorded to 
game birds. It was to perfect the leg- 
islation of last year to prevent the kill- |} 
ing of birds in order to secure orna- 
ments for feminine headgear. It was 
ordered to a third reading. 

The committee on education and labor 
jointly reported the Walton-Birtwell | 
bill to regulate the employment of labor. 
It prohibits the employment of any « hild | 
under 14 in a factory, workshop or mer- | 
cantile establishment, and that no child 
be so employed unless 
lists are posted for inspection by in- 
spectors of factories, and age and school- 
ing certificates are kept for such in- 
spection. The provision for posting a} 


toe of

legibiy simple sentences in the English | 


authorities. A penalty of $50 is added 
to the bill for signing a certificate which 
certifies to any materially false state- 
ment. |

the best thing for the lal ng people

would be forced to follow Massachu- | 
setts’ example in reducing hours of| 


labor, as they had after this state adopt- | 
ed a 10-hour law. 

Senator Leach asked if he would fa- |

the witness not to base his views upon| 
the Pacific mills, where there were di-| 
versified products, but upon other mills 
which were entirely affected by the de- 
pression in the goods market. 
The witness said that he favored mak- 
ing the change at once. He considered 
that no time could be better than the 
present.

while temporarily insane. 

The condition of the insane king of 
Bavaria has suddenly become

worse, 


John L. Tucker, 22 years old, who 
claims to bea broker, was arrested Tues- 
day in New York on a telegram from 
Boston. The complainant is William 
Eurke of Boston. Tucker is supposed 
to have passed bogus checks. 

Both the identity of the assallant of 
Charles L. Russell, the clerk shot in the 
drug store under the United States hotel, | 
and the motive for the crime are unde- 
termined. There were no knife wounds 
on the body, and the drug clerk was! 
killed by the bullets discharged from a | 
82-caliber revolver. . 

The North German Lloyd steamer, 
Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, has again |

best record from Southampton, which |

Washington, April 7.—President Mc- 
Kinley received a long cipher cablegram 
Minister Woodford last night, 
which, it is stated, promised important 
and favorable developments at Madrid 
today, which may meet the demands of 
the United States. 

The queen regent, her dynasty having 
ranteed continuance in power 
e, Austria-Hungary and Italy, 
it is stated, to take steps 
granting indepen- 
and it is expected to be- 
gin proclamation for an 
armistice in Cuba, which will lead toa 
grant of independence to Cuba at the 
end of six months upon the payment 
offered by the Cubans of part of the war 
debt. 

President McKinley will wait to see 
how all this develops. If Spain would 
promise to make Cuba free at the end 
of six months he would agree to it, and 
all the war preparations would be over; 
but it has not taken that tangible shape 
as yet. If it does President McKinley 
will feel amply justified for the manner 
in which he has managed the case. 

While the message was awaited there 
came a hurried summons of leaders of 
the and house to the White 
House, and they were there informed 
that the was to be withheld 
upon the received from 
Consul Ge The reasons he 
gave were deemed entirely satisfactory 
by all, and Senator Davis informed the 
senate, W » the house leaders carried 
the news to that body. That the danger 
to American life was considered suf- 
ficient reason for non-action appeared 
in the postponement of all meetings to 
consider the situation. The proposed 
armistice by Spain injected another fea- 
ture into the discussion of the situation, 
and while some were very hopeful that 
a satisfactory solution of the problem 
might eventuate from it, the general 
feeling was that the conditions in Cuba, 
the determination of the insurgents to 
continue fighting until independence was 
recognized, and the sentiment of this 
country in favor of Cuba's independence 
of Spain possibly made overtures on this 
line too late. 

The frank statement of the president 
to the leaders and to several prominent 
Democrats that his course was deemed 
absolutely necessary by Consul General 
Lee, to insure the safe departure of the 
Americans still in Cuba, has caused them 
to accept the situation in good faith. 
Some of the most radical, after hearing 
the statements of those who saw the 
president, appeared satisfied. Those 
with whom the president talked came 
away witha very strong impression that 
the message would mean war unless 
Spain backed down squarely. One of 
them, who has been very active in an- 
tagonizing delay, says the message will 
be perfectly satisfactory to him and will 
fully meet the expectations of the coun- 
try. 

Pending the transmittal of the mes- 
sage, in view of the situation presented 
by the president, all plans looking to 
action in the house will be abandoned, 
but those who have been taking part in 
the radical movement, and who always 
admit the possibility that the time may 
come when they will have to part com- 
pany with the preseient, are, according 
to the leaders of the movement, more 
determined than ever to ultimately cb- 
tain what they desire. They are at 
present satisfied with the assurances 
they have received as to the character 
of the message, but this has not pre- 
vented them from organizing for pos- 
sible contingencies. The conference 
which was to have been held last night 
after the message was in was aban- 
doned, but 50 of those who inaugurated 
the movement met immediately after 
the house aéjourned to discuss the situ- 
ation. All who were not heartily in sym- 
pathy with them were invited to leave. 
Those at the meeting unanimously 
agreed to wait upon the message, but 
the movement for a caucus started by 
the president's supporters, which was 
also abandoned during the afternoon, 
exposed to them a ddnger upon which 
they had not reckoned, namely, that a 
caucus of F&épublicans might be called 
to bind them by the party action and 
place them in the position of bolters if 
the occasion arose for them to adovt

lan independent plan of action. «a com- 
mittee of elght was therefore appointed 
to count nases, to watch the situation 
and to devise ways and means to meet 
any tactics of the opposition. 

Several rather vigorous speeches in 
denunciation of any policy of delay were 
made in the course of the meeting, one 
by Mr. Smith of Illinois. In order to 
emphasize this position a proposition 
Was made to unite with the Democrats 
and block all legislation, adjourning 
from day to day until the message ap- 
peared and the house had acted on the 
Cuban resolution; but Mr. Hull of Iowa, 
who is pushing the army re-organiza- 
tion bill, made such an ardent plea to 
allow the bill to come to a yote that the 
proposition was temporarily abandoned. 

Shortly before midnight a _ senator 
made this precise statement of the sit- 


uation: “The president's message will 
be transmitted to congress next Monday. 
It is signed and finished. The president 
does not propose to alter a single letter, 
word or line except under one contin- 
gency. That contingency is the abso- 
lute withdrawal of the Spanish flag from 
Cuba and the granting of complete in- 
dependence to the Cubans, Other- 
wise congress must act. 

“Negotiations have ceased and cannot 
be reopened with Spain. There is noth- 
ing to negotiate. General Woodford 
has cabled the president the result of 
his conference with the queen regent 
and the ministers. The sovereign as 
well as the ministy has frankly told 
him that Spain stands between war at 
home and war abroad. To yield to the 
United States means war at home; not 
to yield mears war with this country. 
Of the two evils, they prefer war witha 
foreign power.” 

The delay in the settlem 
ban question was treated in the senate 
with varying degrees of favor or dis- 
favor, depending largely upon the pre- 
dilections and persona! political associa- 
tions of senators. All united in admit- 
ting the necessity of protecting General 
Lee and the other American citizens in 
Cuba. Many, however, were inclined to 
criticise because our citizens had not 
been removed heretofore, while others 
declared protection for them should 
have been sent to Havana, “It is a hu- 
miliating spectacle,” said Senator Quay 
of Pennsylvania, “that with our fleet 
within 90 miles of Havana we are unable 
to protect our people in that port.” 

The intense Cuban sympathizers were 
free in the opinion that there was some 
motive in the delay that did not appear 
on the surface They did not question 
the good faith of the representations as 
to the danger of Americans in Cuba, 
but they argued that there must have 
been other causes for the administra- 


nt of the Cu- 


publication of the fact of danger to 
Americans in Cuba,” said one of them, 
“will set the country aflame and the 
war spirit will be more rampant than 
ever.” Senator Elkins was among the 
conservatives who exp sed apprehen- 
sion as to the effect of the reports from 
General Lee, but he found great en- 
couragement in the outlook for a peace- 
ful settlement of the difficulty. 

The personal follov )f the president 
declined to see any other reason for his 
action than that of conserving the safety 
of Americans in Cuba, and said that for 

have taken any other course 
the circumstances would have 
been inconsiderate and inhuman. Al- 
together the day’s proceedings had the 
effect of leaving the senate in an un- 
settled condition, but it also relieved the 
tension to a perceptible degree. 

If Spain does not before Monday prom- 
ise to make Cuba independent, the mes- 
sage will go in then, and, in the mean 
time, it will be strengthened in tone, 
and the president will have his prepara- 
tions made for armed intervention, if 
upon notice to Spain to withdraw from 
the island, after action by congress, she 
does not immediately 
promise to withdraw.

tion’s course. When the Madrid bul- 
letin stating the probability of an armis- 
tice in Cuba was made known, they 
found in it a verification of their sur- 
raises. At one time during the after- 
noon the indication was strong that dis- 
satisfaction would find voice In the open 
session of the senate, but those who | 
felt disposed to discuss the question were 
restrained largely from a feeling of del- 
icacy because not fully certain of their

not fmd encouragement in the situa-

An Important Point. 

Washington, April 7.—At the meeting 
of the senate committee on foreign re- 
lations the question of Cuban bonds was 
raised. Mr. Foraker stated that there 
was a point to which he desired to invite 
| the attention of the committee, and this 
was the possibility of the United States 
having to assume responsibility for the | 
payment of the interest, if not the prin- 
cipal, of the Spanish bonds secured by 
| the Cuban revenues in case of the inter- 
Vention of this country in the Cuban war 
Without first recognizing the indepen- 
fence of the Cubans. He would not as- 
tert positively that such would be the 
|}case, but he believed the proposition 
strong enough under international law 
}to make ground for an _ international 
}lawsuit. There is no less than $400,000,- 
| 000 worth of these Spanish bonds. 


Mr. Rubens In a Rage. 

New York, April 7.—After quoting from 
the address to the people of the United 
States issued by Mr. Palma on March 17, 

Mr. Rubens of the Cuban junta says: 
| “In the face of the present proposal of 
intervention without previous recogni- 
tion, it is necessary for us to say that 
} we must and will regard such interven- 
tion as nothing less than a declaration 
lof war by the United States against the 
; Cuban revolutionists. If intervention 
Shall take place on that basis, and the 
| United States shall land an armed force 
‘on Cuban soil, we shall treat that force 
as an enemy to be opposed, and, if pos- 

gible, expel, so long as the recognition 
of a free Cuban republic is withheld. 

“I do not mean to say that the Cuban 
army will assemble on the coast to re- 
sist the landing of federal troops, but 
that it will remain in the interior, re- 
fusing to co-operate, declining to ac- 
knowledge any American authority, 
ignoring and rejecting the intervention 
to every poseible extent. Should the 
United States troops succeed in expelling 
the Spanish; should the United States 
then declare a protectorate over the 
island—however provisional or tentative 
—and seek to extend its authority over 
the government of Cuba and the army 
of liberation, we would resist with force 
of arms as bitterly and tenaciously as 
we have fought the armies of Spain.” 


Washington, April 7.—In regard to an 
article in the Hartford Post criticising 
congress, Secretary Porter said yester- 
day:

JONN ADDISON PORTER, 


“J have not written a line for my pa- 
per, the Hartford Post, during my resi- 
dence of over a year in Washington. I 
have not had time to manage the edi- 
torial page of the paper, even if I had 
the inclination to do so under present 
circumstances. So far as the article 
which has caused criticism is concerned, 
I did not write it, nor see it until two 
days after its publication, at which time 
I promptly sent a telegram to the man- 
aging editor of The Post expressing dis- 
avowal and regret at the exaggerated 
tone of the article and cautioning the 
editor to be more careful in the future. 
I am on the pleasantest terms of friend- 
sbip or acquaintanceship with a large 
number of representatives and senators, 
and any unfair or discourteous criticism 
of congress would be directly opposite 
to my feelings and record. No one re- 
grets more than myself any misappre- 
hension which the publication of this 
article may have caused.” 


Weary and Disgusted Crowds. 

Washington, April 7.—When the sen- 
ate convened yesterday intense ex~ 
pectancy, amounting to excitement, pre- 
yvailed both on the floor and in the gal- 
leries. The president's message had 
been positively promised, and its com- 
ing was awaited with genuine anxiety. 
Ten minutes after the senate convened 
consideration of the sundry civil bill was 
| resumed and, with the exception of eight 
| minutes consumed by an executive ses- 
| sion in which Senator Davis announced 
that no message would be sent in, the 
| entire session was consumed by the ap- 
| propriation bill. It was practically com- 
| pleted when laid aside for the day. 
| After waiting patiently in the galleries 
' and corridors of the house for hours, 
many of them from 8 ofclock .in the 
morning until shortly before 3 o'clock, 
| the thousands who had assembled to 
hear the president's Cuban message 
turned away weary and disgusted at 
the delay. Never before was there such 
disappointment at the capitol. The 
members felt it even more keenly than 
the spectatars, and for two hours after-

TODAY'S COURT. 


Ilenry Malaney, Joe O'Connor and John 
Maney were arraigned for malicious mischief, 
in breaking a catch on the window of a boat 
house hired by Charles H. Clare. 

It seems that some weeks ago a club was 
formed among the young men in the vicinity of 
Sumner and Washington street. Clare was the 
only one who had wealth and he hired a boat 
house at the foot of Edison street for the club to 
meet in. The understanding was that the mem- 
bers of the club should pay their share of the 
expenses when they gotto work. Their share 
of the money was not forthcoming, and it is 
alleged that Clare called the club off. Last 
Sunday night Maney invited O’Connor and 
Malaney to visit the club headquarters. The 
custom was, if the door was locked, to pull the 
staple, which they did. 
along and the others lefi. 


Later, Clare came 


Clare then took out 


a warrant for their arrest for breaking the 
window catch. The court saw no evidence to 
connect the three young men with breaking the 
catch, althongh it did not approve of this club 
business. The three defendants were dis- 
charged, 

Owen Flaherty was fined $5 for drunkenness 
at Quincy.

MUSIC HALL BLOcCE. 


BOSTON OPINION, 


False to Our Traditions to Checkmate 
the Insurgents, 

Ruston, April 7.—The Boston 
holds: “For the United States to take 
any step whatever to deprive the Cuban 
revolutionists of the fruits of their long 
and persistent struggles for liberty, for 
which so much Cuban blood has been 
shed and so many thousand Cuban lives 
sacrificed, would be a proceeding dis- | 
graceful beyond all conception. We do 
not believe it would be tolerated by the 
American people. For our part, we 
think it is the business of this country 
to promote tht cause of human freedom; 
but to place any impediment in its way 
would be to be false to all our traditions. 
To intimate that President McKinley 
has any such idea is a gratuitous insult 
to him.” 

“Intervention, active, emphatic,” The 
Journal insisgs, “is the policy to which 
the president's mind is made up. If 
Spain yields, it must be between today 
and Monday, for to all intents and pur- 
poses President McKinley has already 
delivered his ultimatum,” 

The Advertiser treats of Spain's case 
as argued by the minister in Washing- | 
ton as follows: “The American people | 
agree with the Spanish minister that to 
appeal to war unnecessarily ‘would be 
too wanton, too criminal, too offensive | 
to ail the dictateg: f civilization and} 
christianity;’ but if war comes it will | 
only be because Spain ssall have iz- | 
nored ‘all the dictates of civilization and | 
christianity.” Not one step has the! 
United States taken that has not been | 
made absolutely necessary by the brutal 
indifference of the Spanish government | 
in Cuba to all the appeals of civilization 
and christianity.” 

The Globe says: ‘Stand by the 
president’ may be good advice, but some | 
people are having hard work to find out 
just where the president stands, prepara- | 
tory to taking up their position by him.” 

How Two Concerns Were Robbe:l. 

New Bedford, Mass., April 7.—The act- 
ual results of the expert examination of 
the books of the Bennett and Columbia 
mills at the time of the slump were never 
made public until yesterday. It is now 
known that the treasurer, the late Frank 
R. Hadley, made, or caused to be made, | 
entries of sundry payments, purporting 
to be made to C. E. Riley & Co. for ma 
chinery, aggregating $450,000 which the 
firm never received. An attempt to! 
conceal the misappropriation of the 
funds was made by using forged re- 
ceipts written on printed forms of re- 
ceipts and statements, which were close | 
imitations of the forms used by Riley & 
Co. 

In the case of the Bennett, dividends 
aggregating $260,500 were paid, but not 
earned. In January, 1892, it appears 
that $44,300 was loaned H. A. Holeomb 
and returned five months later, and the 
interest, $969.29, was allowed him as an 
offset against notes indorsed by him. 
From the figures at hand, the account- 
ant estimated that had there been noir- | 
regularities, the gross earnings of the 
Bennett corporation would have been 
$442,000. 

Large Number Willing. 

Saco, Me., April 7.—The indications | 
point to a speedy settlement of the three | 
months’ strike in‘the York mill. The 
backbone of the strike seems to be | 
broken, and it is believed by the busi- | 
ness men and the majority of the strik- | 


Post 


ers that rf Agent Page consents to open 
the gates next Monday the mill can be | 
started inevery department. Mr. Page 
is expected home the last of the week, 
and a committee will then wait upon him 
and show him a list of names of oper- 
atives who have pledged themselves to | 
return under the cut-down. Up to this | 
morning about 1000 out of 1500 had signed 
the petition, and the leaders of the move- 
ment believe that the managers will 
agree to make another attempt to start | 
the factory when they learn that such a 
large number are in favor of returning. 

Chairman Larabee, who has taken a | 
prominent part in the strike since its | 
inauguration, is opposed to returning | 
under a cut-down.

Increase In Working Time and Restriction In

Boston, April 7.—T. J. Coolidge, A. G. 
Pierce, Charles L. Lovering, Eliot C. 
Clarke, C. A. Coleman, Eben 8S. Draper, | 
Harcourt Amory, Thomas 8. Brayton, 
Howard Stockton, Augustus Lowell, | 
George F. Fabyan, A. S. Covel, A. M. 
Goodale, H. N. Slater, George S. Silsbee, 
Cc. P. Baker, Chalres H. Dalton and Al- 
bert C. Houghton have united in a me- 
morial to the legislature relative to the 
state of the cotton industry. They say 
that the present conditions and pros- 
pects of the industry in this state are | 
sufficiently grave to call for an exhaus- 
tive study of the premises. They con- 
tinue: ‘Whether this industry, which 
for two generations has added largely to 
the wealth and population of the state, 
has reached the highest point of its ex- 
pansion and is hereafter to decline, is 
today an open question. Thatits value 
to the state is shrinking is beyond doubt. 
Whether the shrinkage can be arrested 
and the process of expansion can be | 
resumed is stillin doubt. The evidence 
of shrinkage appears in lower earnings 
of the operatives, lower prices of the 
products, lower market values of the 
plants and lower profits.’ 

If cotton machinery in Massachusetts 
is to continue to be limited to a less prod- 
uct than similar machinery in other 
states, and.the cost of operating it con- 
tinués to be more and the taxes upon it 
higher, it is inevitable that manuiac- 
turers will withdraw their capital, sell 
their machinery or transfer it to other 
states where conditions are more favor- 
able, and abandon their sites, sacrificing 
one-third of their property rather than, 
by continuing a losing business, invite 
bankruptcy.

tractors Over Prices. 
Boston, April 7.—The summer price of 
silk should have been fixed to take 
effect April 1, but the producers and the 
contractors got into a quarrel and there 
Was no agreement. The contractors 
wanted the producers to carry all of the 


fixed that the producers should carry all 
but 5 percent of the surplus. The dif- 
ference of 2 1-2 percent, it is said, means 


| just as much less in the net price te the 


producer for his milk. Therefore, the 
latter would not agree, and as_ there 
seems to be no chance for a settlement, 
the producers offer to leave the matter 
to the board of arbitration.

Providence, April 7.—The state _lec- 
tion yesterday resulted in an overwhelm- 
ing Republican victory. Neither party 
conducted a live campaign, the success 
of Governor Dyer and his associates be- 
ing a foregone conclusion. Seven cities 
and towns voted on the license question, 
including Providence, where license was 
successful by a considerable margin. 
The socialist labor vote shows a large 


| increase, while the Prohibitionists beat 


the Democrats in several towns as usual. 
Seventy-seven out of 105 districts in the 
state show for governor: Dyer (Rep.), 
13,829; Church (Dem.), 7116; Reid (Soc.- 
Labor), 1688; Lewis (Pro.), 1211. This 
includes but four of the 22 Providence 
districts.

Republican, ensuring the re-election of 


ANDREW G. PIERCE, 


The decay of this industry in Massa- 
chusetts means to the operatives vastly 
more than they seem to consider. They 
have’ been stronger in their ability to 
obtain concessions from employ¢ 
legislation from the state than 
feilow-workers in other states, because 
the industry hz 
able and increas in magnitude. How 
Wall it be when the conditions are re- 
versed? Some of them will be forced to 
scek homes in other states, where the 
situation of labor is less favorable than 
it is in this commonwealth; and those 
states will not be likely to repeat the 
mistakes in legislation which have 
proved disastrous here. The operatives 
who remain must either compete with 
each other for a diminishing amount of 


employment and 


make conc 


ssions to

had the natural ef- 
fect of checking investments in machin-

employment, diverting capital to other 
states, and helping to build up so sharp 
a competition outside of Massachusetts 
that the unfortunate cOnsequences are 
now too obvious to be any longer ig-

recalled. It is a permanent loss to the 
state. If Massachusetts is to continue

do so with a full understanding of the

that in high taxed England and in the 
southern states. The effective way, in

wara tney stood avout the lobbies dis- 
cussing the latest phase of the situation. 
The debate over the army reorganiza- 
tion bill attracted little or no attention. 
It was completely overshadowed by the 
more absorbing question. Considerable 
opposition to the bill developed on the 
ground that its provision for an exten- 
sion of the regular army in time of war 
to 104,000 men would be inimical to the 
national guard and the volunteer forces 
upon which the country had heretofore 
relied in time of stress. There will bea 
strong effort to recommit the bill. 


Protest In Advance. 

Washington, April 7.—Members of the 
United States Brewers’ association ap- 
peared before the ways and means com- 
mittee of the house yesterday and pro- 
tested against an increase in the tax 
on beer to meet waremergencies. They 
cited the newspaper reports that the 
committee would double the tax and 
urged that there was no reason why the 
brewers should be subjected to an ad- 
ditional tax while other lines remained 
exempt. 

Chairman Dingley explained that the 
increase had not been considered either | 
by the committee or the house, but chat | 
if they wanted to state their views on | 
that understanding they might do so. 

If it becomes necessary to increase 
taxes all along the line, the brewers | 


| would raise no objection; but it would 


raising the price per glass, or furnish- | 
ing less of the product for a given sum. 
In the event of a war causing the tax 
to be raised from $1 to $2 per barrel, they 
asked that congress provide a satisfac- | 
tory rebate, as 15 percent should be al- 
lowed for spoilage from whatever cause. |

Lelie es In Independence, | 
York, April 7.—At the regular | 
monthly meeting of.the merchants’ and 
manufacturers’ board of trade of New 
York yesterday, the following resolution } 
Was unanimously adopted: “Your com- 
mittee on national affairs believes that 
Spain is responsible for the loss of the 
Maine and that a substantial indemnity 
|} and an ample reparation should be de- 
manded frean Spain without further de- 
lay. Further, the committee believes 
the independence of Cuba should be ree- 
ognized, and should be secured with 
peace if possible, but by force of armsif 
necessary.” 


New 


Av American Protectorate. 
London, April 7.—The Vienna corre- 
|} spondent of The Times explains a plan 
of settlement which “offers an accept- 
able compromise, if not too late, and 
which has already come under the notice 
lof one of the parties concerned.” He 
says: “The scheme involves giving 
Cuba autonomy, but placing the island 
lin a relation toward Spain similar to 
that which Egypt sustains toward Tur- 
key. Under this plan Cuba would pay 
an annual tribute to Spain, while Amer- 
ica would be entrusted with the control 
of the Cuban finances and have the 
same standing there as England has in 
Egypt. The United States would guar- 
antee the Sparish loan, which, consider- 
ing America’s high credit, could easily

covered by the tribute. The proceeds 
of the loan could he divided, say, one- 
third to Cuba and two-thirds to Spain, 
and thus both be rescued from financial 
distress and an honorable peace secured 
advantageous to both America and 
Spain.” 
“If a Little Time.” 

| London, April 7.—The Madrid corre- 
| spondent of The Daily Telegraph says: 
“I am able to assert that, in the opinion 
of more than one European government, 
a peaceable settlement on the basis of 
Spanish concessions could easily be se- 
cured if a little time were allowed for 
reflection and discussion; but the rapid- 
ity of events at Washington is the most 
dangerous element of the situation. It 
is questionable whether the Cubans 
are ripe for independence, and whether 
such a measure could possibly be ex- 
ecuted in a hurry.” 


How often you see a man 
deeply engrossed in his 
work, full of satisfaction at 
what he has accomplished 
in business, ready to go 
ahead and carry out bound- 
less schemes of achieve- 
ment, and using up all his 
strength and nervous force, 
never pausing to think what 
unseen danger may threaten { 
him from behind. 
Mighty few hard- 
working men ever 
stop to realize that 
the headaches and, 
dizzy sensations and 3 
feelings of weak- 
ness and sluggish- 
ness and incapacity 
that overcome 
them at times are the forerunners of seri- 
ous disease. 

More men would succeed in-carrying out 
their life purposes if they would put their 
constitutions in strong, forceful, high con- 
dition, without waiting until disease has 
plunged its axe into their vital organs. If 
a man who is using up his working vitality 
faster than his nutritive powers supply it, 
will use Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- 
covery as an adjunct to his daily meals, it 
will give the digestive organs power to 
take hold of the food and extract from it 
the elements which strengthen the vital 
organism and build up healthy blood. 

It revitalizes every organ and tissue of 
the body; purges bilious poisons out of 
the circulation ; invigorates the nerve cen- 
ters and the muscular system and makes 
a man altogether a man—full of ambition, 
energy and pluck. 


Mr. Jos, Henderson Dirblun, of s44 Josephine 
Street, New Orleans, La., writes to Dr. Pierce: 
“I was ailing for some years, suffering from 
dyspepsia, a tired feeling and loss of energy and 
| appetite. Itried one bottle of Dr. Pierce's 
Golden Medical Discovery and found great re- 
lief. I took two more bottles, three in all, and 
one or two bottles of the * Pellets, when I 
found myself in good health again. I recom- 
mend Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery to 
do all that it is claimed to do.” 


| In many cases where constipation is one 
of the aggravating causes of disease, Dr. 
Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets should be used in 
} conjunction with the “ Discovery.” They 
| are the simplest and most perfectly natural 
| laxative ever invented. 

It is a dealer’s business to sell you what 
| you ask for—not what he prefers for selfish 
profit’s sake to sell.

Bay State Legislature, 

Boston, April 7.—The act relating tu 
fraternal beneficiary associations pro- 
voked a good deal of discussion in the 
house yesterday, but was finally passed 
with but minor amendments, while the 
adverse report on the petition to compel 


uge if coveted by the policy, remains as 
unfinished business for today. | 

The committee on roads and bridges 
has reported an appropriation of $600,000 
for state highways, $400,000 to be spent 
in 1898; but the whole amount may be 
contracted for. 

A bill was reported by the labor com- 
mittee to prohibit deductions in the 
wages of women and minors who are 
paid by the day or hour, employed in 
manufacturing or mechanical establish- 
ments, for time during which machinery 
stopped, provided that the women and | 
minors are confined in the establish- 
ments. The penalty is from $20 to $50. |

So far as known 


‘special signticarice. 
in administration circles no further rep- 
§ | resentations on this subject are expect- 


ed. No offer of mediation on the part of 
any European power has been received, 
and there fs high authority for the state- 
ment that none would be accepted if 
proffered. This has been the fixed 
policy of the government from the first, 
and there is no prospect ofa change in 
this regard. 

At the embassies and legations the 
presentation of the joint note of the 
powers was viewed as the event of the 
day. An ambassador from one of the 
great powers of continental Europe 
state that it was without a parallel in 
history; that it was the first and the 
only time that the six great nations of 
Europe, representing in the aggregate 
the power of civilization, had united in 
this solemn manner to se the peace 
of the world. It was, this high authority 
stated, a movement historical in charac- 
ter and one fitting to occur on the advent 
of the 20th century. The of 
ident created a most favorable 
ression in foreign quarters. It was 
looked upon, to some extent, as a coun- 
ter-appeal to the great povvers fer their 
co-operation in the cause of humanity 
t the intolerable condition of af- 
in Cuba. In some quarters there

MisS MATHER DEAD. 
Colleps:d During a Performance and 
Died In Convulsions, 
Charleston, W. Va. April 8.—Mar- 


garet Mather, the actress, died here yes- 
terday. While playing the cave scene 
in the fourth act of ‘‘Cymbeline” in 
this city Wednesday night she collapsed 
‘and was carried off the stage in an un- 
conscious condition. 

She never regained consciousness, and 
died Thursday in convulsions caused by 
acute bright’s disease. Miss Mather's 
parents live in Detroit, 


MRS. PABST (NEE MARGARET MATHER). 


Margaret Mather was christened 
Margaret on. She was born in 


1862, and her father, John Finlayson, is 
still living in Detroit. Margaret passed 
hood among squalid surround- 

any way tending to divert 
toward the stage. After

of the part of Juliet she made her debut 
in that character at McVickar’s theater, 
Chicago, in 1882. Miss Mather had been

She was divorced from him and shortly 
afterwards she married a son of Pabst, 
the Milwaukee brewer, from whom she 
was also divorced. 


BOOTH 


IN 


BOSTON. 


Head of the Salvation Army Welcomed 
by the Mayor, 

Boston, April 8.—General 
royally welcomed upon his arrival 
from Rochester, N. Y. There were over 
€00 members of the army in uniform at 
the Boston and Albany station when the 
train rolled in, while not a few of those 
present were from different parts of New 
England. General Booth was personal- 
ly welcomed by Mayor Quincy in behalf 
of the city, and in the speeches which 
followed the general spoke of the threat- 
ened war between the United States and 
Spain. He pleaded for a humane settle- 
ment of the present difficulties, and de- 
sired that all officers and soldiers of the 
army should unite in special prayer that 
God in his infinite mercy may cause the 
awful sufferings of the Cubans to cease 
without recourse 
tion of war. 

Arthur W. Robinson, chairman of the 
Massachusetts division racing board, In 
order that the racing interests of the 
state may be properly looked after, has 
divided the te into districts and as- 
signed certain counties to each member 
of the board. The assignments are as 
follows: Arthur O. Knight of Worces- 
ter, Franklin and Worcester counties; 
John C. Kerrison of Revere, Suffolk, Es- 
sex, Middlesex and Norfolk; Horace A. 
Keith of Brockton, Barnstable, Bristol, 
Dukes, Nantucket and Plymouth; F, L. 
Henkley of Chicopee Falls, Berkshire, 
Hampden and Hampshire. 

An idea has become prevalent that in 
the event of hostilities the Massachu- 
setts nautical training school would sus- 
pend its operations, in consequence of 
the United States naval officers being 
withdrawn from the Enterprise for ac- 
tive service. But this is not the case, 
arrangements will be made by the 
cornmissioners for the continuance of 
the school in any contingency. 


Booth was 


to the terrible arbitra- 


as 


Several days have passed since the 
Russell murder, and still the affair is 
as much a mystery asever. More than 


one clue has been chased down, but all 


the efforts of the police do not throw any 
light upon the affair. 


Bay State Legislature. 

Boston, April 8.—The house had a de- 
bate on the adverse report of the in- 
surance committee on the bill for the re- 
peal of the co-insurance law. Mr. Dal- 
ton argued against substitution, con- 
tending that the repeal of the law meant 
a considerable increase in the fire loss 
of the state and the prevention of low 
rates by thecompanies. Thereport was 
not concurred in. 

The committee on the judiciary report- 
ed a bill to give the presiding justices of 
courts discretion to exclude therefrom 
all persons not directly interested, ex- 
cept jurors and officers, when the evi- 
dence is of such a character that its 
publication would be Indecent; also a 
bill defining the crime of larceny and 
providing hereby that larceny shall in- 
clude the crimes now known as larceny, 
embezzlement and theft. 

Senator Putnam of Middlesex, In dis- 
} cussing the annual appropriation for 
| the dipsomaniac hospital at Foxboro, 

confessed that after last Friday's debate 

he went to Foxboro. He admitted that 
after locking the place over, under the 
guidance of the assistant superinten- 
dent, who seemed a capable and faith- 
ful man, he concluded that he would like 
to stay there a few weeks, bs ue thought 
the work too expensive. It cost $20,000 
for attendance, and only $24,000 at 

Bridgewater, where there were 1100 in- 

mates. The amendment to reduce the 
| sum to the original appropriation, $20,000, 
was rejected, 23 to 12, and the bill was 

engrossed.

We are ready with the best assortment of Spring Clothing Quincy has ever seen. History tells us that 
clothing was worn as far back as the middle ages, Some of those middle aged suits are still worn, and some 
stores have them on sale yet, and that’s no joke, either. 

We are selling goods at less profit than any store in this city, You can buy this year’s suits (1898 suits) 
of us for less money than the slaughter people will ask you for 1894 chestnuts, We never mark goods down, 
We mark them so they will sell when they ought to, : 

Come and give us a call. Look around and make yourself at home. We don't jump a-straddle of a 
fellow as soon as he gets well in the store and importune him to buy. If you want to look, of coufse we'll be

| PEACE THERE'S HOPE, 


Continued from page 1. 


“we had this house filled; the galleries 
overfiowed and the capitol grounds were 
covered with people, all expecting the 
president's message, which might lead 
to war. Finally in the afternoon came 
word that a telegram had been received 
from Consul Lee in Havana indicating 
that he wanted time, and the message 
Was delayed on that account. Now, I 
don't believe anybody had authority for 
the statement from the administration 
or any official that justified the rumor 
that prevailed here. A telegram by the 
Associated Press said that all was quiet 
in Havana, and that General Lee tolda 
correspondent that he had not been re- 
quested to leave. The other newspapers, 
notabiy the New York Journal, have 
similar dispatches. If these statements 
are true, there was nothing to justify 
the statement sent to the capitol Wed- 
nesday. I say there will be no war.” 

Continuing, he charged that congress 
was being overwhelmed by the tele- 
grams “dictated by commercial greed,” 
all of which he declared emanated prin- 
cipally from Wall street and Lombard 
street. “It is the old question of the 
almighty dollar, said he. “It is the 
fall of stocks these gentlemen who con- 
trol the administration fear more than 
war. They care nothing for 266 assas- 
Binated Americans who went down in 
Havana harbor, but they care every- 
thing for 99 cents plus one cent. I say, 
my friends, that we owe an apology to 
Judas Iscariot. I say he ought to be 
brought back and deified. If Judas lived 
in this age he would not have gone to 
the potter's field and hanged himself. 
He would have been sent to the United 
States senate in due time, such a specu- 
lator as he was.” 

Mr. Lentz read from the New York 
Journal statements to the effect that the 
delay in the message helped stock job- 
bers and that they had advance infor- 
mation. He read from the various stock 
reports to show that stocks went up all 
along the line when the news was re- 
ceived that the message would not goto 
congress. 


Mr. Lenz's remerks brought Mr. G®s- 
venor of Ohio, generally regarded as the 
administration's spokesman, to his feet 
with an indignant reply, in course of 
which he made statements which caused 
|a@greatsensation. ‘The gentleman from 
| Ohio,” said he, “has predicated a long 
speech here upon a statement of facts 
made by himself. He declares that no 
| message came from General -Lee; that 
| it was a fake report, given out fora 
corrupt purpose by the president to in- 
fluence the stock market. Every par- 
ticle of this statement is s’ithout ques- 
| tion absolutely false. I call upon the 
distinguished gentleman from Ken- 
tucky (Mr. Berry), a member of the 
foreign affairs committee, tosay wiether 
I tell the truth or not when I say that 
such a dispatch was received from Gen- 
| eral Lee and was read by him. Thereis 
the answer. That is the character of 
the sort of assaults that are being made 
|on American honor and the integrity of 
the president. Not did the dis- 
patch come Wednesday, but it came in 
the day before and appealed to the 
president of the United States. I read 
the telegram, and there are 20 men on 
this floor now that read the telegram, 
both Democrats and Republicans. It 
Was read to the members of the foreign 
relations committee of the senate, and 
everyone of them without qualification 
coincided with the policy of the president 
not to send the message in here at that 
time. I say again that on Wednesdaya 
most earnest and urgent protest came 
from Lee. Is General

Mr. Lentz—“‘If you knew this Tuesday, 
why.did you let the house and galleries 
fill up with people and sit here and say 
nothing about it while Wall street was 
speculating upon it?” 

Mr. Grosvenor Wall street was not 
speculating on it. That story is as false 
as the other. The president intended to 
disregard Lee's telegram of Tuesday and 
had his message signed and sealed and 
ready to be transmitted to both houses: 
} and Wednesday morning when the final 
protest in the name of humanity came, 
it was read } 
two houses and without a dissenting vote 
they advised the president against send- 
ing his message here. 

“The gentleman is arraigning 
president of the United States; 
sending a message to 
ing them that here this house is a 
man who will charge the president of the 
United States with a corrupt purpose, 
with a corrupt intention, with attempt- 
ing to stop the progress of the great 
march of patriotism. There is no word 
of delay in all the language which has 
been used in this connection.

“I call the attention of the gentleman 
and of the house,’ General Grosvenor 
continued, “to the statement he made 
that this was another stock jobbir,y per- 
formance, and that here was another 
purpose of delay in this declaration from 
the ambassadors of the great powers so 
that Wall street would run upward. I 
hold in my hand the statement that im- 
mediately upon the publication of this 
} Statement in the city of New York the 
market became very weak and ran clear 
|; down upon every one of the leading 
articles in the market. It is very easy 
|; to charge a _ senator. The senator 
(meaning Mr. Hanna) has madea state- 
} ment, which I challenge any man to 
| deny—that never in his life did he buy a 
| dollar of stock in Wall street or any- 
where else.” 

Mr. McMillan—Can he say the same 
| thing aleut votes?” 

Mr. Grosvenor wenton: “Achargenc 
pore serious than the gentleman has 
preferred has brought the head of many 
& man to the block. A charge more tn- 
| famous than that could not be borne by 
any man in this country. He seeks to 
; make it appear that the president has 
used the power that congress has given 
to him to operate upon the stock mar- 
kets of this country. Prove that, and 
; You would have a vacanty in the presi- 
| dency as quick as you can establish it. 
The charges have no truth.” 
Mr. Lentz—“I have already said to 
| you that I deny that I said anything of 
| the kind.” 

Mr. Grosvenor—“ ‘The administration 
| set the story afloat ip the interest of 
| stock speculation.’ Those are your ex- 

act words. You made a charge that

peachment and imprisonment. I have 
felt that it was a terrible assault upon 
the honor and Integrity of Spain, what 
We did on Wednesday, but there Was put 
fup in the one hand the choice of insult 
to Spain, solemnly delivered by the 
president, an intimation to the whole 
world that there was danger of murder 
to American representatives in Cuba, or 
there was put on the other side the dan- 
ger itself. Suppose the message had 
gone to congress and suppose that Wed- 
nesday night the blood of that distin- 
guished and chivalrous gentleman from 
Virginia had soaked the soil of Cuba. 
What would haye been the verdict of the 
American people against the adminis- 
tration? If there is a man in the house 
so far forgetful of his dignity as an 
American citizen as to intimate that 
the president has been guilty of juggling 
a thing like that, I will not answer it. 
I have no more doubt that we shall go to 
war,” Mr. Grosvenor said, “than that I 
will live until next week. I may be mis- 
taken, I pray God I am, but I believe 
we shall go to war practically upon the 
declaration of congress. If it is averted 
it must be by Spain.” 

Sharp talk on war was indulged in by 
the senate yesterday. When considera- 
tion of the sundry civil appropriation 
bill was resumed, the question pending 
was the amendment of Mr. Pettus pro- 
viding for such improvement of the 
harbor at Mobile as would enable war 
vessels to obtain coal and other supplies 
there. Mr. Allison, in charge of the bill, 
made a point of order against the amend- 
ment. This called out a bitter speech 
by Mr. Morgan, who charged the ap- 
propriations committee with discrim- 
inating against proper 
threatened to assist in dissolving the 
tommittee. He followed with an argu- 
ment showing the necessity of the Im- 
provement proposed, holding that it 


would open to the government in time | 


of war the coal fields of the south and 
enable it successfully to fight the treas- 
onable monopoly that had been formed 
to control the coal supply of the country 
in the event of war. The amendment 
was lost. 


May Sign War Decrees, 
London, Apfil 8—The Mail corre- 
spondent in Madrid cables: ‘Despite 
the postponement of President McKin- 
ley’s message to congress the hopes of 
peace have sunk; and the opening of the 
national subscription is considered a 
bed sign. It is announced in official 
circles that the quéen regent will sign 
at once important decrees in relation to 
war. Navy department officials, who 
nre generally well informed, declare their 
strong suspicion that there is something 
very important behind the curtain, and 
that this something might be an llth 
hour solution. I may point as a very 
curious and striking fact that the news 
that President McKinley would at the 
last moment, if not before, postpone un- 
til next Monday sending his message to 
congress was known here since last 
Monday.

The order for the 
long-expected military draft was issued | 
Wednesday morning by Captain Gen- | 


| palace with the generals of divisions. 


A copy of the order has been sent to 
every town in Cuba. It commands 
every male Spanish subject between the 
ages of 19 and 40 to register for im- 
mediate military duty at the office of the 
commandant of the district. The place 
of registration in Havana is at the mili- 
tary palace, the residence of General 
Parrado and Dr. Congosto. The utmost 
secrecy has been maintained in every- 
thing connected with the order. It is 
not mentioned in The Gazette, the offi- 
cial receptacle of everything that ema- 
nates from the palace. 

Cuban sympathizers in Havana are 
jubilant over the draft. They say it 
only shows to what straits Spain nas 
been reduced. The great majority of 
the men who will be compelled to serve 
under the Spanish flag are Cubans, 
whose sympathies are with the insur- 
gents. 

Janta’s “Don Quixotes.” 

Washington, April 8—The course of 
Mr. Quesada and Mr. Rubens in declar- 
ing the unalterable opposition of the 
junta to the policy of intervention with- 
out preliminary recognition of their own 
peculiar faction has had a precisely con- 
trary effect to what was intended. The 
threat to anéagonize by force the effort 
of the United States to obtain Cuban 
freedom has tended to destroy sym- 
pathy for their cause, and leads to the 
conviction that they are actuated by a

news, | 


which, however, was received with some | 


scepticism, has been 
stating that President McKinley 
finally decided to make a stand against 
the jingoes and to follow President 
Cleveland's policy with the support of 
Mr. Cleveland, the latter's friends and 
the peace loving elements of the United 
States. Another 


Kinley would ask from Spain in order 
to calm American opinion.” 
A Complication Likely. 

Washington, April 8.—Germany is ap- 
parently about to interfere directly in 
Cuba by trying to punish the insurgents 
for the outrage on Germans and Ger- 
man property at Cannamaba, and, if she 
does, it will complicate matters for the 
United States. 


Given New Assignments. 
Washingt, April 8.—Two of the offi- 
cers of the ill-fated battleship Maine 
have been given new assignments. Chap- 
lain Chidwick, who was untiring in his 
devotion to the men of the vessel, has 
been assigned to the Cincinnati, which is 


JOHN P, CHIDWICK,

who had been ordered to the Mayflower, 
has been detached from that vessel and 
has been given a promotion, being as- 
signed to the command of a tug recently 
acquired by the government by pur- 
chase. 

Navy and Army. 

Washington, April 8.—Maine, New 
Hampshire, Alabama and Texas are tak- 
ing preliminary steps for the formation 
of a naval militia. 

An order has been issued establishing 
the rating of chief electricians and elec- 
triclans of tke first and second classes, 
the pay being $50, $40 and $35 per month, 
respectively. 

In the war department, matters have 
assumed a normal condition, everything 
being in readiness for any conditions 
which may arise. Reports received show 
that up to this time there have been re- 
cruited 900 men of the 1600 needed to fill 
the two regiments of artillery. 


Had Reached the Limit. 

London, April 8.—The ambassadors of 
France, Germany, Russia and Italy 
waited last evening upon Mr. Gullon, the 
foreign minister, and presented a joint 
note in the interests of peace. Mr. Cul- 
lon declared that the members of the 
Spanish cabinet were unanimous in con- 
sidering that Spain had reached “the 
limit of international policy in the di- 
rection of conceding the demands and 
allowing the pretensions of the United 
States.”

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY. 


A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia. 
This may read as though we were 
putting it a little strong because it is 
generaly thought by the majority of 
people that Dyspepsia in its chronic 
form is incurable, or practically so. 
But we have long since shown that 
Dyspepsia is curable nor is it such a 
difficult matter as it first appears. 
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that 
they are continually dieting, starving 
themselves or going to opposite ex- 
tremes or else deluging the already 
over burdened stomach with ‘ 
‘*aftedinner pills,’’ ete., which in- 
variably increase the difficulty even if 
in some cases they do give a slight 
temporary relief. Such treatment of 
the stomach simply makes matters 
worse. What the stomach wants is a 
rest. Now how can the stomach be- 
comes rested, recuperated and at the 
same time the body nourished and 
sustained. 
This is the great secret and 
also the secret of the uniform success 
of Stuart’s Dypepsia Tablets. This is 
a comparatively new remedy, but 


is 


this 


its 


|} success and popularity leaves no doubt 


as to its merits. 

The tablets will 
anyway, regardless 
stomach. 

The sufferer from dyspepsia accord- 
ing to directions is to eat an abund- 
ance of good wholesome food and use 
the tablets before and after each meal 
and the result will be that the food 
will be digested no matter how bad 
your dyspepsia may be, because as be- 
fore stated, the tablets will digest the 
food even if the stomach is wholly 
inactive. To illustrate our meaning 
plainly if you take 1,800 grains of 
meat, eggs or ordinary food and place 
it in a temperature of 98 degrees and 
put with it one of Stuart’s dyspepsia 
Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs 
almost as perfectly as if the meat was 
enclosed within the stomach. 

The stomach may be ever so weak 
yet these tablets will perform the work 
of digestion and the body and brain 
will be properly nourished aud at the 
same time a radical, lasting cure of 
dyspepsia, will be made because‘ the 
much abused stomach will be given, 
to some exent a much needed rest. 


Your druggist will tell you that of 
the many remedies advertised to cure 
dyspepsia none of them has given so 
complete and general satisfaction as 
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet and not least 
in importance in these hard times is 
the fact that they are also the cheapest 
and give the most good for the least 
money.

A DEFERRED AFFAIR. ! 


Jobn Stanhope, ranger, on his shaggy 
brouchko, cantered lazily down the dust 
carpeted trail with drooped bead and 
thoughrtfa!l brow. His sbort carbine see- 
sawed across his left leg, which hung 
slouchily over the horn of his big Mexi- 
cau saddle. His whole attitude was one 


. 


“Ss, this,"* and Tipton held up his 
fandayed hand. ‘‘There’sa slug o’ lead 
zs big as the end of your thumb went 
through it.”’ 

The sun had disappeared bebind the 
hills, and in the dim twilight Tipton’s 
sbuggy outlive looked shadowy and in- | 
distinct to Stanhope, so astonished was 
he. He whistled softly, and the pony 
pricked up his ears. 

“I b’lieve you are as close to the 


EASTER BONNETS. 


As ever, the Easter bonnet for the 
year is a thing of beauty. There are 
brighter colors on it than for some years 


| past, and altogether it is a dainty piece 


of millinery, fit for the brows of a queen 
of fashion. 

The attempt to force the Salvation 
Army style of bonnet as a mode, though 


of ‘relaxation. His eyes were half closed | truth as you ever get,”’ he said to Tip- pusbed by diplomatic means for the past 


and his thoughts were wandering | 
dreamily back to the days before a spirit 
of deviltry had induced him to leave | 
his old home in the blue grass region of 
Tennessee to seek excitement and ad- 
venture on the Texas prairies. The sun 
blazed down in vertical rays and tremnu- 
lous heut waves rose from the bowlders 
scattered bere and there. 

Suddenly Stanhope came to his senses 
apd jerked at his bridle so violently } 
that his horse reared on his hind legs | 
and suorted. Stanhope didn’t know 
what caused bim tostop. He felt vague- 
ly that something was wrong, but he 
bad uo idea what. He looked about. 

**Wonder where them fellows are?’’ 
he muttered. ‘‘Reckon they stopped 
back up the trail a bit.’’ Stanhope 
turned his broucho’s head and rode back 
to where a clump of scrub oak and 
chaparral bid the winding trail from | 
view. Rising in his stirrups, he looked | 
about. There was uot a living tBing in | 


sight. The undulating prairie, brown 
and hot, dotted with an occasional bit 
of timber, stretched away in every di- 
rection. 

“Well, I'll be d——d,”’ exclaimed 
Stanbope balf aloud, ‘‘ef thisdon’t beat 
me. Where kin thei fellers be?’’ 

He rode to the top of the highest 
knoll in the vicinity and, shading his 
eyes With his hands, again looked care- 
fully about. He bad taken unnecessary 
trouble. No one was in sight. 

“You'd ‘a’ thought Bill Childress 
would ‘a’ had more sense!’’ Stanhope 
said, addressing his pony. The pony 
was accustomed to being talked to by 
Stanhope when they were alone togeth- 
er. He may not have understood what 
his master said, but be knew that he 
was being talked to, and he worked his 
intelligeut ears energetically by way of 
reply. 

‘“‘Asfor that young cub that come 
down from San Antone,’’ Stanhope 
went on, ‘*I never did think he was top 
heavy with sense. Maybe they stopped 
at that 'royo we crossed two mile back 
to look for some water.”’ 

The broncho’s ears worked again, so 
Stanhope rode back down to the trail, 
unsaddled and tethered his horse and 
lay down under the shade of a scrub oak 
with a saddle for a pillow to wait for 
his companions to catch up. 

It did not occur to him that anything 
might have happened to Childress and 
the cub, who was a young man recently 
come from the States impelled by the 
same thirst fer adventure that had 
brought Stanhope to Texas. There were 
no Mexican cattle lifter that he knew 
of in 100 miles, and Golonel Tipton’s 
road agents bad, he thought, been 
wiped out by some of Captain Hays’ | 
rangers a fortnight before. 

At least a report to that effect had 
reached Sau Antouio a few days before. 
The Mata stage driver told him 
about it that morning when the stage 
passed him and his two companions, 20 
miles or more back up the trail. He 
and Childress and the tenderfoot—Wal- 
lace was the tenderfoot’s name—were 
ou their way to join Hays’ camp at the

swept up from the |

Opposite Stunbope sat a swartby, 
mus rman, With shaggy bair and a 
shaggier beard, looking quizzically at | 
him, A ritle rested across bis knees. A 
blood stained piece of cloth was bound 
tightly about his left haud. 

‘Tipton, by the Lord!’’ yelled Stan- 
hope, instinctively reaching for bis rifle. 

The shaggy man grinned. ‘‘Needn’t 
trouble to look fer your gun,’’ he 
drawled. ‘‘I've moved it.”’ 

Stanhope boiled with rage and cha- 
grin. He tried to say something, but his 
tongue refused to perform its functions. 
Tipton suw the effort and smiled again. 

‘*You'rea a fool, Stanbope,’’ he ob- 
served briefly. 

‘You're right there,’’ snapped the 
other. *‘I'm the biggest fool out of hell, 
or the buzzards would ’a’ bad your man- 
gy carcass picked clean before this.’’ 

‘‘Yaas, I know,’’ replied the shaggy 
man, witb exasperating deliberation. 
**You did overlook a bit when you for- 
got to scrag me that night on the 
Nueces. You know I’m a purty slip- 
pery cuss. Better be prompt the next 
time—that is, if there's goin to be any 
next time."’ 

Stanhope had cooled down considera- 
bly. He looked steadily at the shaggy 
mau aud then grinned. There was some- 
thing infectious in 'Tipton’s good nature. 

**Well, you've got me, haven't yon?’’ 
he said. 

“You allers was a young man of 
powerful discarnment,’’ replied Tipton, 
‘but this time it ain’t a question of 
what I’m goin to do to you. I’m not 
the doer in this here game. There’s oth- 
érsthat holds better cards nor men or 
you in it.”’ 

**What d'you mean?’ 

“Ob, nothin, only that greaser cuss, 
Gonzales, he’s got “crost the Grande

The shaggy man flared up, and Stan- | 
hope could see a dangerous glitter in | 
his gray eyes. 

‘*None of that,’’ he growled. ‘‘This 
is a matter ‘tween Greaser and white | 
man. I’m with the white man. Savvy? 
After it’s over you and me’ll have it 
out. 

“In apy way you like,’’ said Stan- | 
hope stifily. ‘‘You know me, Tipton.”’ | 
And he returned the shaggy man’s glare 
through the gloom. | 

‘Il s'pose them two fellers I ron 
acrost with their throats cut back up

scribed the men.

‘“*Well, then, the Greasers is only 
waitin fer night to rub us out.”’ 

**T suppose so.’”’ 

‘*Well, then, we’ll fool ’em,’’ and to 
Stanhope’s astonishment the shaggy 
man collected a lot of mesquite roots 
and lighted a fire. 

‘“‘What the devil are you up to, 
man?’’ he demanded roughly. ‘‘D’you 
want to fix ’em a light to kill us by?’’ 

‘‘My son, I’ve been at this game 
longer'n you have,’’ replied Tipton. 
Stanhope held his peace. After Tipton 
got the fire started he made two piles, 
one on each side of the fire, out of 
Stanhope’s saddle and what was left of 
the mesquite roots he had collected. 
He covered oue with Stanhope’s blanket 
and threw his own buckskin jacket over 
the other. When he finished, he looked 
up. 

**Now, Stanhope, we’ll hide in that 
patch o’ chaparral yonder and wait till 
they turns up.”’ 

‘*Why not clear out of this altogeth- 
er?’’ asked Stanbope. 

**Ain’t one chance in 1,000,000 that 
we could get away,’’ said Tipton, ‘‘and 
we can entertain ‘em better here.”’ 

Stanhope saw the wisdom of Tipton’s 
scheme, and, picking up his rifle, fol- 
lowed him to the chaparral thicket. 
The grass was heavy with dew, and 
they were soon wet to the skin. The 
cool, steady breeze did not tend to make 
them more comfortable. They lay shiv- 
ering in the chaparral until Tipton’s 
fire was nothing but a pile of red em- 
bers. The moon pushed its silver rim 
over the eastern hills and shed a ghast- 
ly light over the prairie, metamorphos- 
ing the chumps of chaparral and isclat- 
ed scrub oaks into fantastic shapes. 

Not ‘a sound disturbed the stillness 
except the chirp of insects, the wail of 
the coyotes and the occasional rustling 
of the chaparral as a breath of wind 
stirred it. Stanhope was just dozing off 
when he felt Tipton’s toe scraping 
against his shin. He was wide awake in 
an instant. 

** Look,’’ 
there was 
*bout.”’ 


stanbope 


said Tipton.‘ ‘‘I thought 
too d——d many insects 


looked toward the fire, ! 
which consisted now of one or two dim 
relcoals. A dark form was stealthily | 
worming its way toward the pile of 
mesquite roots that his blanket covered. 

**Good job you ain’t under that blan- 
ket,’’ whispered Tipton. Stanhope 
thought it | 

: figure approached 
neurer and nearer tothe pile. Suddenly 
a hand was raised and a gleaming knife 
At the same in- 

pton’s rifle went off. The dark 
form rose, gave a piercing yell and fell 
with outstretched arms. Four other fig- 
ures rose from the prairie, and Stan 
hope’s rifle exploded. There was anoth- 
er yell—anotber dark form dropped. 
Three figures dodging backward and 
forward, vanished in the uncertain’ 
moonlight. Tipton laughed—a wild, 
terrible laugh, that sounded like the 
how] of a whole pack of coyotes. | 

Answering yells came from every live 
oak about them. 

**Them’s Kiowas,’’ said Tipton, ram- 
ming a charge home. ‘Guess old Gon- |} 
zalgs ‘lowed he'd lift all the cattle in 
this part of Texas.” 

Stanhope didn't bave time to say he 
thougbtsotoo. Fifty rifles flashed about 
them and as many bullets tore through 
the chaparral overhead. Two rifles spit 
back their streaks of firefrom the thicket, 
and two robust voices yelled out their 
defiance. The cracks of the rifles con- 
tinued for two hours, the circles of | 
flashes without the chaparral drawing 
closer and closer and the yells of defi- 
ance within it becoming feebler and 
feebler. By and by the fire from the 
chaparral stopped and the fire from 
without it slackened. Then all was 
still. 

Half a dozen of Hays’ rangers gallop- 
ing toward San Antonio at daybreak 
the next morning disturbed a pack of 
snarling coyotes rending the flesh of a 
dead bronche, three Kiowas and two 
Mexicans near the ashes of a campfire. 
Another pack was circling warily about 
a clump of chaparral 100 yards away. 
Breaking into the thicket, the rangers 
found two bodies full of bullet holes. 

*‘That's Tipton,’’ said one ranger, 
looking down into the face of one. 

‘Yes, and here’s Stanhope,’’ said an- 
other. 

‘*Well, this beats me,’’ they all said | 
together. 

They scooped a deep hole in the! 
chaparral with their bowie knives, laid | 
the two bodies in it, filled the hole up 
with bowlders and dirt to keep the | 
jackals out, fired a salute, mounted | 
their horses and galloped up the trail. | 

As the beat of their horses’ hoofs died 
away in the distance the coyotes slunk 
broucho, the three Kiowas 
and the two Mexicans.

Stanhope, ranger, and Colonel Edward |

18 months, has proved a complete fail- 


ure. It snits the type of sweet Madon- 
nalike face, light or dark, but it hasa 
significance so remote from worldliness 
that swelldom frowns upon it, and the 
Fifth avenue and Broadway milliners 
have given up the struggle. They can- 
not afford to run counter to the express- 
ed desires of those whose word is law in 
certain well detined circles of society, 
for be it known the social leaders are 
not dominated by the mechanics of art 
or trade, as bas generally been supposed. 
The mandates come principally from the 
buyers and not from those craving pat- 
ronage. The suggestion or praise of the 
populir Mrs. —— of Forty-sixth street 
or the recommendation of the exclusive 
Miss -—— of Lexington avenue has 
more effect upon determining the pro- 
vailing style than all the cajoleries of 
the insinuating little Frenchwoman 
who confidentially tells her customer 
thata selection of ber own—upon which 
possibly there is a larger profit—is ‘‘so 
becoming. ”’ 

Thus it follows that many will recall 
the popular minstrel airand the refrain 
of 20 years ago, ‘‘She bad a darling 


bonnet with a flower garden on it,”’ 
when they see these new creations of | 
the brows of} 


headgear surmounting 
those who dress according to prescribed 
and scientific regulations.

EASTER SONG. 


When the sun a broader are 
Marks across the April sky; 

When the days, so cold and dark, 
At the thought of summer fly, 


Crocus buds above the green 
Of the dooryard croft appear, 

And birds in copse and tree are seen, 
And resurrection days are near. 


Eee! The spicewood's yellow bloom 
On the gleaming knoll is set, 

And tasseled buds and flowers have room 
To fringe the jocund rivulet. 


What was thut? The bluebird’s note, 
Caroling so rich and free, 
Fits no other song bird's throat. 

"Tis his marvelous minstrelsy. 
The south wind's soft and balmy breath =| 
Wafts its chrism from southern seas. 

It comes to lift trom wintry death 
The earth and whisper hope and peace. 


The pathos of the robin’s song 
Now is never far away, 
While in the fields and woods a throng 
Of birds repeat their roundelay. 
| 
Who sball doubt that life, not death, | 
Crowns the swift circuit of the year; | 
That not a soul of mortal breath 
Shall miss at last its heavenly sphere? 


Then let the bells of Easter ring, 
Tuned from Bethlehem’s faroff sky, 
For eummer’'s new processions bring 
The proof that only Death shall die!

Knockout Was Fatal. 

Columbus, O., April 9.—Two affidavits 
Were filed against Oscar Gardiner, one 
charging him with prizefighting and the 
other manslaughter ir causing Stout's 
death. The autopsy on the body of 
Stout shows that a blood vessel in the 
brain was ruptured, a clot forming. 
There was a fracture of the skull. There 
Was no padding on the ring floor, and 
the theory was advanced that concus- 
sion of the brain was caused by Stout's 
head striking the floor. The autopsy 
does not bear out this theory, but indi- 
cates that the knockout blow on the jaw 
did all the damage. 

In addition to Gardiner and his sec- 
onds, Michael Connelly and P. H. Sulli- 
van, who were arrested Thursday night, 
William and Joe Bierholter and James 
Marshall, promoters of the fight, were 
taken into custody. All of these men 


were released except Gardiner, it being | 


found that they could not be held on any 
charge since the mayor had given a per- 
mitfor the fight. Gardiner was released 
On a $700 bond pending a preliminary 
hearing. He is very much distressed 
over Stout's death and says that he will 
never fight again. His attorney is con- 
fident that he cannot be convicted since 
a& permit wags given for the fight. Mayor 
Black says no more fights will be per- 
mitted in Columbus.

Weavers Not Going In. 

New Bedford, Mass., April 9.—The 
mass meeting of weavers Friday after- 
noon was attended by about 1200, both 
unionists and non-unionists. A great 
deal of interest was felt in the meeting 
since it furnished an indication of what 
the weavers, who constitute about half 
the strikers, propose to do about going 
in on Monday. It was first proposed to 
take a secret ballot on going to work, 
but this was voted down. Then the 
meeting, by a practically unanimous 
vote, decided not to go to work Monday. 

The spinners voted to help the carders 
out of a temporary difficulty by loaning 
them a few hundred dollars. The loom- 
fixers will meet this afternoon to vote 
on the question of going to work.

Joshua W. Baker, an old resident of 
Shrewsbury, Mass., committed suicide 
by cutting his throat. 

Eliza Dexter, a widow, aged 87, was 
almost instantly killed by being struck 
by a switcher in Willimantic, Conn. 

A brakeman named Merchant fell 
between cars at the Atlantic, Mass., sta- 
tion last night and was instantly killed. 

Charlies L. Bartlett, mayor of Marlboro, 
Mass., in 1396-97, died yesterday aftera 
short illness. He was born in Norwich, 
Vi1., in 1851. 

Governor Pingree’s bill for increasing 
the taxes upon railroads in Michigan was 
defeated in the senate by 15 yeas and 16 
nays. ‘The bill passed the house by an 
almost unanimous vote. 

The military affairs committee of the 
rouse has unanimously reported the 
Odell bill, granting permission for the 
building of a Catholic chapel on the 
government reservation at West Point. 
The bill has been before the committee 
in various forms for two years. 

A call has been issued in Manchester, 
N. H., for a meeting for the formation 
of anIrishregiment. Itis expected that 
1000 from all over New Hampshire will 
attach themselves to the body, which 
will then offer itself to the national gov- 
ernment to be officered by army officers. 

If Commander Tucker of the Salva- 
tion army sends nurses to Cuba, they 
will not affiliate with the Red Cross so- 
ciety, nor be offereaé the protection of 
its flag. The sending of a corps of 
nurses to that country will probably be 
a feature of General Booth’s visit to 
New York. 2 

Those liable to draft in the regular 
army are joining the volunteer column of 
Havana, which has swelled within the 
last few days from 1500 to 20,000. This 
they prefer to regular service, which 
would call them into the field and take 
them away from the protecting walls 
and inviting cafes. The volunteers are 
verging upon revolt against the Ameri- 
cans and ultra-Spanish.

ated by unseasonably cold 
which has checked the usual Easter de- 
mand to aconsiderable extent. Reports 
from the west are that the heavy rush 
of spring business is about over, and 
that orders coming in now are of a fill- 
ing-in character. 

As a result of the depressing influences 
the general level of values appears to 
be, if anything, slightly below the -evel 
set atthe beginning of the year. Dur- 
ing March only 27 out of 107 staple ar-

Massachusetts Man Robhed In a Pe- 
culiar Way, 


Kept His Savings In a Box at 
His Home. 


His Young Sons Induced by. an Acquaintance 
to Supply Him With Cash. 


Worcester, Mass., April 8.—William H. 
Oldenburgh of North Grafton was locked 
up in the central station yesterday, 
charged with the larceny of $1350 be- 
longing to Thomas Monahan. 

The story is a most pathetic one. Mr. 
Monahan lost the savings of 11 years. 
He has been employed in the finishing 
room of the Finlaysen & Bosfield thread 
mill and was very thrifty and saving. 
He came to (he town about 17 years ago, 
and then began to save his earnings, 
with the hope some day of buying a 
farm. 

lt was his custom to put his money in 
a tin box, which he kept in the atttia 
near his bed. He never took a cent 
from this box after it was placed there, 
and frequently during the good times he 
added various amounts, binding them 
together in rolls of $250 each, until he 
had $1350 on hand. 

He had a distrust of savings banks, 
and could not be persuaded to entrust 
his money to one of them. Noone knew 
of the treasure of his tin box so far as 
he was aware, except his oldestson, who 
is 15 years old. The father told him of 
tin box under the bed and of its 
contents, and told him to take the box 
and keep it safe if anything should hap- 
ren in his absence. The boy told his 
younger brother, 13 years old, and they 
were the only custodians of their fa- 
ther’s secreé. 

Last fall the sons became acquainted 
with William H. Oldenburgh, 22 years 
old, who lives about a mile away dovn 
the road. Oldenburgh drove one day to 
Monahan’s house with a load of cider 
and gave the boys about four quarts. 
He usked them if they had any money, 
and they told him no. They told him, 
however, of the money hid in the tin 
box in the garret, and he wanted to bor- 
row $20 of it. The boys went to the box 
and took $100. They gave Oldenburgh 
$20 and kept the rest. 

Later he returned for $25 and got it, 
and then he asked for $2300, which the 
simple-minded boys also gave him. All 
these loans were made last fall, and 
Oldenburgh represented that he was 
buying horses and was making money. 


He called again and suggested to the 
boys that they should give hi 1] that 
was in the box, and they brought do 


the remaining $1000 and passed it oyer. 

Monahan has a fear of banks and kept 
his money in a tin box at his home. Ol- 
denburgh learned of this fact and formed 
an acquaintanceship with the boys, with 
the result, it is alleged, that he induced 
them to give him the money. 

When: arrested the ‘prisoner had 16 
cents in his possession and is unable to 
account for the loss of the money fur- 
ther than he says he bought horses and 
carriages. The money was taken last 
September, but the loss was not discov- 
ered till March 7. The case was report- 
ed to the Worcester police last Sunday. 


BOSTON OPINION. 


Natural Impatience of the Masses Will 
Be Allayed. 


Boston, April 8.—In treating of the 
ambassadors’ call yesterday The Globe 
says: “No one of the nations represent- 
ed in it dreams of going any farther. 
All of them know the difference between 
Washington and Constantinople, and the 
opportunity to inform them, as in effect 
they were informed yesterday, that we 
will not permit Cuba to become another 
Armenia, where the horrors of the in- 
fernal regions have been fostered and 
| perpetuated by their intercession, was 
| a most welcome one. Equally welcome 
is the renewal by the president of his 
pledge that he is moving toward the 
‘ending’ of ‘a situation the indefinite 
| prolongation of which has become in- 
sufferable.’ Thus assured, the natural 
impatience of the masses of the people 
will be allayed while they confidently 
rely upon him to see that no backward 
or doubtful step is taken. No Armenia 
at our doors! No more submarine 
| mines!” 
| “The intercession of the foreign pow- 
| ers has been gently suggested and has 
failed. It has now passed into history; 
but does this mean that war is certain 
to come?" asks The Journal. “No; there 
} is still a hope of averting it. It lies in 
Ee one thing—in Spanish surrender. 
i 
| 


This is not yet impossible. Besides the 
moral pressure of Europe, a new, ma- 
terial pressure is now beginning to oper- 
ate at Madrid. It is the overwhelming 
superiority of the United States in the 
preparedness of its naval armament.” 
“Even if Spain does remain stubborn 
| until Monday,” in the judgment of The 
| Advertiser, “the last hope of peace with 
| honor will not necessarily have depart- 
ed. As we have so often said,” it con- 
|tinues, “diplomacy alone, without a 
| show of force, can accomplish nothing 
| with the arrogant, cruel and mediaeval 
power with which President McKinley 
| has to deal, But it is by no means cer- 
tain that Spain will not at the last-mo- 
ment, when she realizes that it is really 
the last moment, yield to fear what she 
has refused to justice.” 

The Post says: “The impending war 
is on so high a plane that it cannot fail 
to command not only the sympathies 
put the conscience of the American peo- 

iple. It is not a war waged for selfish 
lends. Much as we deplore the loss of 
|our valuable trade with Cuba, it is not 
lon that acceunt that we incur the dan- 
gers of hostliities. The American nation 
is actuated by no desire of land-grab- 
| bing. We do not want Cuba as a pos- 
|session of this country. The sordid 
| reasons, which underlie and lead to the 
conflicts of the great powers of the old 
| world, have no place here.” 
| Sarah Stewart, 30 years of age, and 
her son, William, who is barely 4 years, 
were terribly burned at their home in 
|Charlestown. The life of the little fellow 
is despaired of, and Mrs. Stewart is in 
a serious condition. The victims were 
alone in the house, and how the accident 
bappemed cannot be ascertained.

LONG DISTANCE DRIVING. 


Two Connecticut Physicians Race From 
Norwich to New London. 

Much public interest in this vicinity 
Was aroused recently over a 16 mile 
road race from Norwich to New London 
between trotters owned respectively by 
Surgeon General Cassidy and Dr. Wit- 
ter K. Tingley. Both physicians drove 
a pair of horses and were each accom- 
panied by another physician. A big 
crowd saw the start at 4 o'clock in the 
efternoon,-and along the entire route 
crowds encouraged the two drivers. 

The road to New London is very hilly. 
The best previous time made over it is 
55 minutes. Dr. Cassidy arrived at the 
Crocker House, in New London, 47 
minutes after leaving Norwich, and Dr. 
Tingley was only one minute bebind, 
both teams breaking the record. The 
horses were in very bad shape at the 
finish. According to the agreement, Dr. 
Tingley must now give a dinner to all 
the local physicians. Dr. Cassidy had a 
pneumatic tired carriage, which Dr. 
Tingley said was worth more than a 
minute on the time.—New York Her- 
ald. 


ANOTHER MARATHON RACE. 


Boston Athletic Association May Make an 
Annual Feature of the Grecian Game. 
The Boston Athletic association has 

decided to hold a ‘‘Marathon race’’ 
again this year. ‘The success of last 
year’s contest was so big that there is 
no doubt the great Grecian race will be- 
come a fixture. The race will be held 
this year on Patriots’ day, April 19. It 
will be 25 miles, over the same course 
as last year. The course is an ideal one, 
being always in good condition, the en- 
tire distance being quite level. 

J.J. McDermott of the Pastime A. 
©. of this city, the winner of, last year’s 
race, covered the distance in 2 hours, 55 
minutes and 10 seconds A prize will 
be given this year to the first eight men 
and a special prize to the contestant 
who beats McDermott’s record.—New 
York Journal. 


ON THE GOLF LINKS. 


J. D. Winsor, Jr., Pennsylvania's 
high jumper, has developed into a fine 
golfer. 

The number of golf clubs now in the 
United States Golf association is 101, 
an increase of nearly 40 within a year. 

The Tuxedo Golf club is enlarging its 
clubhouse and expects to have double 
its present capacity by the first of the 
season. Dr. E. C. Rushmore is engaged 
in superintending the work. 

There seems to be a growing senti- 
meut among golfers that St. Andrews 
will be willing to have the open tourna- 
ment if the executive committee of the 
United States Golf association requests 
that club to take it. 

A uew golf club is shortly to be or- 
ganized among the residents of White 
Plains, and a nine hole course is to be 
built as scon as a suitable site can be 
selected. Both Bendelow and Dunn 
have been asked to lay it out. 

The Midlothian Country club of Chi- 
cago bas recently completed the work 
of laying out a nine hole course. The 
playing distance is said to measure 
about 3,000 yards. H. J. Tweedie, the 
professional, superintended its construc- 
tion. 

A plan on band at the St. Andrew’s 
Golf club is to inaugurate in August a 
schoolboys’ golf championship, to be 
played annually on its links at Moant 
Hope. The details have not been ar- 
ranged, but the intention is to have the 
event open to schoolboys in all parts of 
the country. 


BITS ABOUT THE BOXERS. 


Casper Leon has sent a challenge to 
England, through his manager, Charlie 
White, to meet any 105 or 108 pound 
boxer there for $1,000 a side. 

Joe Choynski, the pugilist, will prob- 
ably never fight again. The Californian 
is now suffering from blood poisoning, 
and the doctors have found it necessary 
tu use the knife. 

Jack Ward, the Baltimore bantam, 
is exceedingly anxious to fight Jimmy 
Barry again. Ward has personally chal- 
lenged Barry and is willing to Wager a 
good sum on bis chances. 

Charlie Johnson offers to box Jack 
Everbardt at 140 pounds or any higher 
weight that may suit the southerner. 
If Everhardt does not accept the offer, 
it is open to any other man in the world. 

Spike Sullivan writes to a friend 
from London that it is likely he will 
make his home permanently in Eng- 
land. According to the letter, Spike 
may open a public house, a syndicate of 
sports being willing to back him in the 
venture. 


Harvard's Promising Oarsman. 

According to James A. Ten Eyck, fa- 
ther of Edward H. Ten Ecyk, there is 
an oursman at Harvard university who, 
with proper training, can come near 
winning the Diamond Sculls at Henley 
in 1899. While at Cambridge the other 
day looking over the crew candidates 
Ten Eyck picked out Lockett Gwin 
Coleman of the junior class as the pros- 
pective Henley winner. Coleman was 
born at Macon in 1877 and prepared for 
college at Harvard academy, St. Louis. 
He has always been prominent in foot- 
ball and in cycle racing, having won 11 
first and 2 second prizes in 20 mile road 
events. He is 5 feet 11 inches tall, 
weighs 180 pounds and is powerfully 
developed. Coleman never rowed before 
entering Harvard, but last year he was 
a member of the Weld crew, which won 
the eight oared race at Philadelphia, 
beating a field that included the Uni- 
versity of Pennsylvania eight. He is 
rowing in the Weld crew now and has 
greatly improved in his style. Coleman 
and his friends are greatly pleased with 
Ten Eyck’s favorable opinion, and Har- 
vard men generally hope that the young 
oarsman will visit England next year 
to have a try at the celebrated aquatic 
emblem.-—New York Sun. 


A baby is like crazy patch- 
work, composed of bits of 
its ancestors. All of 
them contribute some- 
thing to baby’s physical 


or mental or moral 
make-up. The mother 
gives the largest 
Share. Toa 


great extent the 
health of a 
child depends 
upon the health 
of the mother, 
both before and 
after birth. 

If, during the 
period of ex- 
pectancy, the 
} mother enjoys 
good general 

and local 

health, she will have a child with a robust 
body, an alert brain and vigorous health. 
You cannot expect such a child from a 
weak, sickly, nervous, despondent woman 
who is broken down by derangements an 

disease of the distinctly feminine organs. 
A woman in that condition is almost sure 
to have a puny, sickly, peevish baby. Dr. 
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the best 
preparation for motherhood. It relieves 
maternity of its dangers, and ¢ f almost all 
its pain, It restores the delicate and im- 
portant organs that bear the brunt of ma- 
ternity to perfect health and strength, and 
assists the regular and healthful perform- 
ance of all the natural functiohs. It ban- 
ishes the ailments of the critical period, 
and makes baby’s debut easy and almost 


painless. It insures the little new-comer’s 
health. Thousands have testified to its 
merits. Good medicine dealers sell it, and 


no honest druggist will insult your intelli- 
gence by urging upon you something else 
as ‘‘just as good.”? The “just as good” 
kind is dear at any price. 


Mrs. F. B. Canning#, of No. 4320 Humphrey 
Street, St. Louis, Mo.. writes: “I am now the 
happy mother of a fine, healthy baby girl, I 
feel that your ‘ Favorite Prescription’ has done 
me more good than anything I have ever taken. 
I took three bottles of the ‘ Prescription,’ and 
the consequences were I was only fn labor forty- 
five minutes. With my first baby J suffered 
eighteen hours, and then had to lose him.”
