FOREIGN.

MORE TERRITORY. the Washington
Chronicle of October 9th appeared an
article from the pen Of Senator Harlan,
foreshadowing the future foreign policy
Of the Administration. In this article il
was authoritatively stated that the Presi
dent would not wish to push things
''toward protectorate in Mexico, or the
settlement of matters in Cuba, and
easter or further than he has done
during his present term" The fact
that Senator Harlan is in intimate per.
sonal relations with the President, and
is member of the Committee on For.
eign Relations, gives considerable
weight to his utterances concerning the
policy to be pursued. But recent tels.
grapic adviccs seem to indicate that the
extension Of our National territory il to
be the leading policy OF Grants second
term, and that movement in the direc.
ton Of Mexico will not be long delayed.
One Of the latest dispatches says that
those who are presumed to be in the
