(ler Obligations to the British, Al-

' nonunion ;
Washington, March
McKinley said yesterday: “There is no
significance in the visit of the British
Ambassador.”
This utterance was made in answer;
to the story published in certain papers J
that when Sir Julian called at: the
White House on Tuesday it was to con-
vey a message from the Queen express-
ing her desire that war with Spain be
avoided, and to point out that the com-
mercial relations of Great Britain with
the United States were too extensive to
be jeopardized by a. War between this
country and Spain.
tary Day has already officially denied
that the visit was for any such purpose,
and even SirJulian,who has not allowed
himself to be quoted in the newspa-
pers for three years, authorizes the
statement over his name that the Cu-
ban question was not discussed while
he was with the President.
It is somewhat strange that a visit
of the Ambassador to the President
should give rise to so much speculation,
because it is not an unusual thing in
diplomatic procedure for an Ambassa-
dor to call upon the President. An Am-
bassador is the personal representative
of his sovereign or President, and as
such he can call in person upon the
chief executive of the country to which
he is accredited. _
There is no doubt that in this case
the wish was father to the thought, and
that England would undoubtedly be
pleased to have the impression get
abroad, especially in Europe, that an
alliance has been made between Great
Britain and the United States. In fact,
in this instance, the first suggestion oi
don Wednesday night to a correspon-
dent of a. London paper, and on this
information was based the story pub-
lished. One can readily see the great
advantage to be gained by Great Brit-
ain in having this impression get
abroad on the Coninent, especially in
view of the Eastern situation.
As a State Department official said
yesterday, the United States was not
going to place herself in the position
of being under any obligations to Eng-
land at this time, especially as the lat-
ter’s aid was not necessary. We could
easily handle Spain ourselves, and to
accept assistance from England would
only make it obligatory for us to aid
England in the event of trouble over
the Chinese situation, which now seems
sure to come.
From this it will be seen that Eng-
land is pleased that the impresSion
should get abroad at this time that she
offered assistance to the United States.
There is every reason to believe, that,
if war should come, the United States
would have the sympathy of Great
Britain and her moral support, and
11.—President -
Assistant Secre- ‘
that, if she should interfere in any way
before hostilities, her interference
would be in the direction of bringing
about such a settlement of the Cuban
controversy as the United States is
seeking.
It is also believed that should the'
President recognize the independencei
of Cubans, England would follow suit!
and thus notify Spain that she could
receive no sympathy or aid from the.
British. ~This much of friendly co-op-
eration between Great Britain and the,
United States is anticipated. But a;
close alliance of a formal character is
regarded as a. thing of the remote fu-
ture. ' The mutual interest of the two
governments in preserving the integ-
rity of China and the need of Great
Britain for the moral, if not the active,
support of the United States in her con-
tention with the rest of Europe ovei
the Eastern question, is expected nat-
urally to dispose Great“ Britain to as‘
sume a. most cordial and sympathetic
attitude toward the United States in
the present emergency.
British commerce would undoubted
ly suffer somewhat from war between
the United States and Spain. But it
is not believed that it would suffer
nearly as much as has the American
commerce on account of the Cuban
war. There is no probability, it is
thought, of Spain being able, in the
event of war, to blockade any of the
principal American ports, and, 01
course, the war vessels of neither Spain
nor the United States would interfere
on the high seas or in ports, in the
absence of a blockade, with the vessels
carrying the British fiag.
At all events, if war were forced
upon this Government by the act oi
Spain, it is not regarded as at all prob-
able that we will be deterred from the
the consideration of a. consequent
temporary inconvenience to Great
Britain, or that Great Britain expect:
or desires such a thing. It is felt to
be a matter of congratulation by lead-
ing men in Congress, as well as those in
official life, that there exists between
Great Britain and the United States
a cordiality of sentiment and commun-
ity of interests far beyond the ordinary
comity of nations. The attitude oi
Great Britain with respect to our reia.‘
tions with Spain is expected to be such
as to contribute. as far as any foreign
influence can, toward checking Spain
in any course which would compel the
United States to go to war.
Says 1“ cCoy’s Claim is a Farce.
Pittsburg, Pa., March 11.-—Mike Con-
nelly, Peter Maher’s manager, says;
“Kid McCoy’s claim to the heavyweight
championship is a farce. He told me
in a personal interview that he was
afraid of 1‘7 «her. He said: ‘I am chal-
lenging champions, but fighting suclc
ers.’ Our $5,000 forfeit is still in the
hands of Sam Austin for any man in
the world to cover, and until McCoy
fights a. topnotcher his claim is ridic-
ulous. Maher has whipped both me:
McCoy is after now."

TRUST THE'PRESlDENT.
Praising His Course from All
Over the Country.
Washington, March 11.—Onc of the
moSt gratifying things to the President
in the events of the last few days is
the spontaneous outpouring of tele—
grams a.nd letters of congratulation
now coming to him commending him
" for his prudent and wise course under
the trying 'circum'stances of the last
month. All these messages express the
great confidence felt all over the coun-
try in the course now being pursued
by the President, and express reliance
'in his ability and wisdom as to future
events.
The vote of cdnfidence given by Con—
gress in placing such a. vast amount of
money in the President’s hands, is un—
precedented in this country. It gives
the President absolute control over the
appropriation, and places implicit trust
in his ability and wisdom in disbursing
it, for not a Single conditon is imposed
upon him, and he is left free of all ob-
ligations in dispensing the millions.
This is all the more significant, be-
cause it is realized in Washington that
now the explosion of the Maine is but
an incident in the great question be-
hind it, the future of the island of Cu-
ba. The developments of the last few
days show that the President is Pres—
ident in reality, and that Congress re-
alizes this and is willing to follow him
in his policy in the Cuban question as
it did in the present crisis. The Presi—
dent's course throughout has been his
own, despite the various assertions
that he has been influenced by this in-
terest or that. His masterful handling
of Congress, and its unanimous action
in sustaining him and his policy, has
shown this, for it has brought a. feel—
ing of relief and confidence to the peo—
ple that the President is right, and
that now the country is prepared for
any emergency.
The assurance that the nation is
ready for any crisis, will make the
President’s course in the future much
easier, for no matter what the Court
of Inquiry reports or how the report
is received by Congress, the Adminis-
tration knows that its policy has the
indorsement of Congress and that when
it is ready to act on the question of
Cuba’s future the country will be be-
hind the President, and as read}r to
support his policy in this regard as it
was to support the determination to
be prepared for trouble.
The fact that the Court of Inquiry
is finishing its work at Havana, and
within a. week, shows that the Presi-
dent was wise in taking the precau-
tionary steps he did at once. It is the
opinion here that developments will
come swiftly, and the entire Cuban
matter will be settled before many
Weeks have passed. The President does
not mean to rush things or act hastily,
but it is evident that a. settlement of
the question must be had at once.
NO RUSSIAN {-ILTIMATUM.
So Says the Parliamentary Secretary of
the Foreign Office.
London, March 11.—-Answering a
question in the House of Commons yes—
terday on the subject, Mr. George 1'.
Curzon, the Parliamentary Secretary
of the Foreign Office, said Russia had
not sent an ultimatum to China. with
reference to Port Arthur and Ta-Lien-
Wan.
Mr. Curzon also announced that the
British Ambassador at St. Petersburg
had confirmed the report that Russia
was negotiating for the lease of Port
Arthur and Ta—Lien~Wan, for the same
period and under the same conditions
as granted to Germany in the case of
Kiao-Chou, and that Russia was also
negotiating for the right to construct a
railroad from Petuua, on the Trans-
Manchurian line, to Kwang-Chung-
Tzu, Mukden and Port Arthur; but, Mr.
Curzon explained, Russia did not de-
mand sovereign rights, nor has she
- threatened to move troops into Man-
churia in the event of China’s non-com-
pliance with her demands.
Mr. Curzon also denied that Russia
and France had protested against the
Anglo-German loan to China.
UNION OF WIRE INTERESTS.
Iron Trade Review Says Original Scheme
Is Dead.
Cleveland. March 11.-—-The Iron Trade
Rcview to-day says: “Everything is
off in the proposed consolidation of the
wire and wire-rod interests of the
country. This statement might be
qualified.by saying that while the
scheme on the original lines is dead.
something may be accomplished in the
next three weeks toward merging some
of the important concerns. But of this
there is no certainty at present.
“The report of the experts as to the
earnings of the companies do not verify
the representations which were made,
and the properties of these companies
will not be purchased. Therefore, the
consolidation. as originally contemplat-
ed, will not be consummated. It now
seemes certain that a consolidation of
some. if not a majority, of the compa-
nies, will be made about April 1.”

OFFICIAL CROP REPORT.
Icserves in the Hands of Farmers an Ex-

porting agencies of the Department of
Agriculture made up to March 1 show-
the wheat reserves in farmers’ hands,
on that date to have been the equiva-
lent of 22.9 per cent. of last year’s crop,
or about 121,000,000 bushels. This is 33,-
000,000 bushels in excess of the farm
reserve reported one year ago.
The corn in farmers’ hands as esti-
mated aggregated 783,000,000 bushels, or
41.1 per cent. of last year’s crop, as
against 1,164,000,000 bushels, or 51.0 per

THE DEPUTIES ACQUITTED.
._._
Verdict of Not Guilty ilcudcrctl in the
Luttiluer Riot Trial.
“'ilkesbarre, Pa, March 10.—Thc
jury in the case of Sheriff Martin and
his deputies for shooting of strikers
at Lattimer, on September 10, returned
a verdict of not guilty. .
Long before the time for court to
convene yesterday morning there was
a big crowd waiting to gain admission
to the court room. Judge Woodward
did not take his seat on the bench un-
til 10.05 o'clock, the jury coming in. a
few minutes later. W'hen the jurors
had taken their seats the roll was call—
ed, each man answering to his name.
The clerk then asked: “Gentlemen of
the jury, have you agreed upon a. ver-
dict?"
The foreman replied: “We have," at
the same time handing the clerk the
written verdict, which was promptly
passed to Judge Woodward.
After reading the verdict the Judge
returned the paper to the clerk. The
latter, addressing the jury, said: “Gen—
tlemen, your verdict in the case of the
Commonwealth vs. James Martin et.
a1. is not guilty, so say you all.”
“We do,” was the reply.
The jury was then polled and each
juror answered not guilty as his name
was called.
There was an attempt at applause.
but it was quickly suppressed by the
Judge.
When the jury retired Tuesday even-
ing, they took only one ballot and it
was unanimous for acquittal. It is
said the jury was prepared to render
a. verdict before leaving the box. The
ballot was taken only for form's sake.
After the jury had been thanked and
discharged by Judge Woodward, Dis-
trict.Attorney Martin asked that the
defendants be required to continue
their bail bond, as there are still sev-
enteen indictments for murder hang-
ing over them, and thirty-eight for
feloniously wounding. The bond was
continued as requested.
District Atttorney Martin says he
has not decided what to do with these
other cases, but will confer with the
Prosecuting Committee. This com-
mittee, it is said, will insist upon fur-
ther prosecution.
The trial of Sheriff Martin and his
deputies began on Tuesday. February
1. and continued for five weeks, about
150 witne’ses being called by the Com-
monwealth and the defense. The case
was bitterly fought by both sides, and
has excited more interest than any
other case ever tried in this section of
the State.
It is said that the trial will cost the
county almost $10,000 and the defense
850,000. The lawyers engaged by the
Prosecuting Committee to assist the
District Attorney were to have a fee
of $1,000,cach. So for each has received
$700 of it.
TREASURY IN GOOD SHAPE.
Customs Receipts Increasing—Gold Itc-
sel've Touching: Record Figures.
W'as‘nington, March ill—At no time
has the national, Treasury been in a
healthier condition than now. There
is not only a greater store of gold in
the vaults of the Treasury building to-
day than there has been for a decade,
but at no time within many years has
the flow of gold into the Treasury been
so strong and steady as it is at pres-
ent. There are in round numbers $170,—
000,000 in gold in the Treasury, and the
supply is increasing every day, though
the Government is making no effort
toward further accumulation. The
most remarkable and gratifying of re-
cent developments has been the reap-
pearance of gold in the payments for
customs at New York. In the past few
years the yellow meta-l has never been
tendered in payment. of customs dues.
but the gradual restoration of confi—
dence has had the effect of renewing
the flow of gold-into the custom
houses.
It has been gradual, but it has now
become unmistakable. Last Septem-
her the proportion of gold was only
eighl-lenths of 1 per cent. of all the
receipts. The next month it rose to 3.6
per cent, In November it had increased
to 5 per cent., and so it rose steadily
until now it is no less than 10 per
cent. of the receipts. The Treasury
authorities have done nothing to pro-
duce this condition, nor even to en-
courage it. _
The customs payments in actual coin
is regarded in financial circles as one
of the best barometers of the confi—
dence of the money market. Next to
gold. limited States notes are consid-
ered the best forms of payment: of cus-
toms ducs, and these constituted 54 per
cent. of the receipts in January, and
rose to 64 per cent. last month.
FLORIDA’S FORT PLANS STOLEN.
Burglars, Said to Be Spanish Spies, Break

West Palm Beach, Fla, March 10.—
Following is an excerpt from a letter
which has been received her the in-
formation coming from an o cial in
the Government building in St. Augus-
tine:
“The Government building here was
entered by thieves on last Thursday
night and robbed, the thieves taking
nothing but the plans and specifica-
tions from the engineers of the fortifi—
cations of the State. The discovery
caused great excitement among the of-
ficials, and the matter has been kept
a. profound secret. The town has been
besieged with Spanish spies for the last
ten days, and it is generally believed
by the authorities that they are the
pernetrators.’.' \

.. BABY PROPHET IS A WONDER.
Chicago Produces a Three Year Old Chili}
Prodigy.
Chicago has a prophet only three
years old. Her name is Winifrec
Cline, daughter of Samuel Cline, 2
wholesale chemist.
The child has demonstrated her abil-
ity to foretell all kinds of accidents
and important events varying from one
day to several months in advance.
She does the phenomenal prophecy-
ing in a perfectly natural manner. She
never goes into a trance; never claims
to see visions, either asleep or awake;
never gets “spells” of any kind. She
eats, sleeps and plays around the
house like any ordinary child.
For instance, she foretold the elec-
tion of President McKinley several
months in advance, when she was only
two years old. This might strike an
outsider at this time as being then an
easy prephecy, even for a child. Bul
circumstances show' it to have been
otherwise. During the Presidential
campaign Winifred’s grandfather, John
McNally, was a guest of the little girl’s
father. Both Mr. McNally and Mr.
Cline were ardent supporters of Bryan
Every evening they talked about the
campaign, expressing their utmost con-
fidence that Bryan would be elected
Winifred had never heard anybody say
anything to the contrary, so that when
one evening before election Mr. Cline
came home and announced that he had
put up $100 on Bryan’s election, and
was going to win it, the whole family
was astounded by this sudden and
grave assertion from Baby Winifred:
“Mr. Bryan will not be elected, papa.
You will lose your bet. Mr. McKinley
will be the next President of the Uni-
ted States.”
Another extraordinary thing about
little Winifred, and something that has
caused her parents much anxiety, is
the fact that she has never used “baby
talk.” Her choice and range of words
is as serious and extended as a. woman
of mature years.
Among other things she can always
tell what the weather will be the fol-
lowing day. She can always tell at
what hour a letterwill arrive and often
from whom it will come. She not only
foretells the approaching visits of
friends, but can even tell how the vis-
iting friends are going to feel and what
will be done while they are calling at
her home. Her parents say there has
not been a single instance where her
prophecies have not come to pass.
In addition to this prophetic power
little Winifred has a marvellous mem-
ory, never forgetting the smallest de-
tail of a conVersation. A list of a doz-
en, or even two dozen figures can be
shown her for a few moments, and she
can call off each figure. correctly.——New
York World.
He Missed a Golden Opportunity.
A New Jersey junk dealerlost what
would have been the best bargain he
ever 'had in his life when he tried to
beat down the price 'he was asked to
pay for a barrel of old iron. The iron
belonged to a queer old hermit who
lived alone for many years, and who
died a short time ago. The man who
was settling up his affairs found a bar-
rel containing scraps of old iron in the
shed, and when a junk dealer‘came
along, offered it to him for one dollar.
The junk man demurred at the price,
claiming it was worth only half that,
and during the discussion which fol-
lowed they tipped over the barrel
There among the old iron was found a
lot of gold and' silver coins which
counted up more than six hundred dol-
lars.
’ A New Employment.
An emplbyment which a few original
women have been able to make lucra~
tive is that of furnishing notes for pa-
pers, addresses, lectures and the like.
These women read everything in the
way of periodicals, classifying and con-
densing important topics and pre-
pare notes amply supplemented- by
clippings, that amount to a. syn-
opsis of the current news on
the subject. This often becomes a sort
of information bureau for the busy
writers and talkers of the day. Clul‘
speakers, in particular, avail them-
selves of it.-——New York Journal.

The Moral of This Old, Old
Anecdote Will Save a
Heap of Trouble
and a Pile of
Money.
. Something had gone wrong with some.
simple part of the machinery of a sta-
tionery engine, and the stoker could
notfix it. After spending a day or two
on it, he was forced to ask the aid of
a more competent workman. He failed
also, and someone suggested the em—
ployment of a. local celebrity—a sort of
tinker at any mechanical job. There
is generally one in every locality. He
gave two or three raps with his hammer
and touched up a rod or two, when the
pounding, or whatever ailed the ma-
chinery ceased. When asked to make
out his bill, it read as follows:
Fixing Engine 6 .50
Knowing how 10.00
Tota. $10.50
This anecdote has nothing earthly to
do with Mr. Wm. I". Knapp engineer
and fireman at h’oth & Goldscbmidt’s,
South Norwalk, but it serves to intro-
duce him to the N orwulk public, and
at the same time shows the close rela-
tion between the tinker’s work on the
engine and average humanity’s, when
they tinker with their kidneys. Mr.
Knapp tells how he cured his. Read
this statement.
“I am an old time engineer and like
a great many men who followed my
calhng the weak spot in my anatomy is
my back, probably caused by becoming
over-heated in a warm atmosphere and
then expose to cold. Be that as it may
I had considerable trouble with my
kidneys and although I used simple
household remedies and on one or two
occasions took medicine, I was never

Harbor Scavengers.
When the full fishing fleet is at the
wharf thousands of gulls gather about
the end of the dock. Some of the
small boys who dangle legs and a
fish line over the edge in the expecta-
tion of catching a smelt or two amuse
themselves by throwing far out into
the water two large pieces of fish tied
together by a stout string. The vo-
racious birds do not stop at swallow.-
ing a bit of rope, and if a gull reaches
each end of the string at the same
time there is a great fluttering, splash-
ing and crying. Besides providing an
amusement for the idlers at the docks,
these wild birds do a great service to
the public. They are the natural
scavengers of the harbor and pounce
upon everything edible and devour it
with an omnivorous appetite. Were it
not for the gulls the vicinity of the
fish whnrves would reek with the flot-
same and jetsam of the fishing vessels
and warehouse—Boston Transcript.
Victims of Whter Drliiking.
There are two interesting instances
of the effect of water upon the human
system. In the Alps and the Pyrenees
there is a race of people who are old
men at 15 years of age, and who die
at 30; this being entirely due to their
drinking lime-water. The Chinese,
on the other hand, drink nothing but
rainwater, and, as a. nation, their lon—
gevity is proverbial.——Philadelphia

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the car.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this 'tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh. which is nothing but an in-
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s
C‘ttarrh Cure. Send for circulars. free.
