The President In Favor Of War.

Especial dl,patch to the New York World
WARRINGTON, Nov. 25.-An old army
friend OF the President, who had quite an
extended interview with him to-day, re.
ports that Grants voice Is Tor q most
prompt and aggressive policy towards
Spain. All Of the Senators and members
who have conversed with him bring the
same report, but he does not seem to meet
with very general war feeling In re-
turn among the Congressman. While
some are Tor war the most Of them
agree that the country Is In no
condition for It, and believe that
apology and reparation can be se-
cured to sufficiently satisfy the honor
oi the country. There Is little or no abate.
ment In the preparations for war. It
seems 10 be the impression that instead Of
our Government having to wait for reports
from Minister Sicklcs concerning the
Spanish Cabinets views, the Spanish
Cabinet has conferred extraordinary
powers on Admiral Polo to communicate
directly with our Government through
the Secretary OF State. At all events, the
Spanish Minister Is now brought into
more intimate communication with Sec
retary Fish than at any time since the
present trouble began.

Report of the Secretary of the In.
re- 4e, teFiOr. |.HH

WAsHIEGToN, Nov. 2T-The Secretary
Of the Interior, In his annual report, re.
CARDS the situation In the Indian service
as favorable, and as vindication Of the
propriety and practicability Of the hu.
name policy which was inaugurated at
the beginning Of President Grants execu.
tive term which, has governed the De.
partment In the transaction Of all bust.
ness matters pertaining to Indian affairs.
Satisfactory progress towards the ends
sought to be attained by this policy has
already been made, fully justilying the
hope that It will achieve the end in view.
The Secretary recommends that the
system Of cash annuities' be abol.
ished, and that payment to the
Indians be hereafter made In goods and
he suggests that the monies due the
praire bands, Pottowatomies and Kansas
Indians, be invested in government bonds
and placed TO the credit OF said Indians
respectively, for the purpose of their
civilization, to be used by the Commis-
sioners Of Indian Affairs for that object,
both interest and principal, at such times
and in such manner as the President Of
the United States may direct. The gov
ernment shall assist the Indians desirous
Of securing permanent homes by dona-
tions OF stock and farming implements.
The first step towards the permanent
settlement, OF the Indians In fixed
homes Is the establishment and rigid en-.
forcement of regulations to keep them
all upon the reservations. The Secre-
tary says that the Sioux Nation Is almost
completely surrounded by tribes that are
really friendly to the Government, and at
the same time bitterly hostile to the
Sioux. II these friendly tribes could be
supplied with improved fire.
arms and ammunition, the present su-
premacy Of the Sioux might in few
years be destroyed with but little aid
from the army. The Secretary refers to
the lawless condition of the Indian
Territory, and s6ys that II the 0co-
mulgee Constitution, with the proposed
amendments is not adopted at the next
meeting OF the Indian council, and Con-
gress shall not deem 1t advisable to erect
Q territorial government within the terri
tory, he trusts that the necessary legisla-
tion may be obtained to at least provide
for the organization Of court or courts
therein under the Jurisdiction, so far as
the appointment Of judicial officers Is con.
cerned, Of the federal government.
The Secretary invites the attention Of
Congress to a request from the colony ol
Mennoites residing in Southern Russia
for q modification oil the existing land
laws in certain particulars, to enable them
to settle upon our public domain in com.
pact colony. The entire area they will
probably require will be about five hum
dred thousand acres.
Tho Secretary notices the business OF
the Land, Pension and Education Bureaus,
railway and geological surveys, the CEN
sus and other subjects coming within the
range Of his department.

SPANISH FEELING IN CUBA.
How they Received the Captured
Virginius at Havana.-Their Opln-
ion as to War.

NEW York, Nov. 2G.-The steamship
Crescent City brought mail sdvices yes
terday from Havana to the afternoon Of
the Goth. Two days before that the cap.

was first taken and where the crew was
shot. She entered the harbor OF Havana

lica. On either side the narrow harbor,
the shores were lined with spectators,
who cheered, though not enthusiastically
as the Virginius passed. The principal
streets OF tho city were again festooned
with flags and banners. though the deco
rations were by no means as extensive as
on the reception Of the news Of the death oi
Ryan and his companions. The subscrip.
tions raised In behalf OF the Tornad0's
officers h I'd been literally responded To-,
but the ivrm Of the testimonials had not
been decided upon. Meantime extensive
preparations have been made Tor bull
fight Of unusual magnitude. which was to
take place on Thursday, the Goth, In the
the plaza Ia toros. This event occurred
on the afternoon the Crescent City sailed.
From the decks of the steamer as she
dropped out Of the harbor hundreds an d
thousands could be seen focking from
ever section Of the city to the scene OF
the coming conflict. -
A number Of the most promine Mt
Spaniards on the island had express ed
their doubts as to the wisdom Of Buriers
course, and a rumor which was generally
believed to be well founded was circu-
lated 10 the effect that the Isabella 10
Catholica had been dispatched TO San
tiago by the Captain General with orders
to Buriel TO allow no more executions.
The destruction of the wires had render
ed telegraphic communication impossible.
The vessel was said TO be sent out on the
reception Of the news Of the second
slaughter. By the Cubans, Burlel was
regarded as little better than demon,
though Of course no one dared openly to
express his opinions. They were watch.
ed no less closely than fortnight ago,
and no one was safe In the expression ol
bis views. The number Of Spaniards in
Havana would probably amount to about
100,0 1000, while the Cubsns were some
thing over half that number. The num-
Der Of volunteers in tho city was not far
from $4,000. The opinion of the Span
iards in regard 10 the prospect OF war was
almost unanimous. They had no fear OF
the United States. As one expressed It:
america was dog that barked but did
not bite" England, on the other hand,
was universally dreaded, but the Span
iards were hoping that the whole affair
would be settled without serious results.
In the city OF Havana, gold had ad.
vanced from 150 to 162 during the week
Of greatest excitement. When the steam.
er sailed the Cubans were praying earn.
estly for help from America, but their
faith was evidently waning.

Howes * Macy a Little Short In their
Assets.

NEW YORK, Nov. 28-At meeting Of
creditors yesterday Mr.. Howes stated that
they had about 1.400 creditors, and that
the liabilities Of the firm were, in round
numbers, $1,20O,0OO; their assets were
about 100000; Of which $184,2l5 were
in cash. he proposed that the creditors
should join the banking house to the ex-
tent of their credits, forming joint stock
company with capital Of 81 200 900; the
proposition was that each should receive
stock certificates representing the amount
oil their credits on the house, with 70 per
cent Of the value represented by such
stock paid up, the earnings Of the bank
going to make up the 25 per cent defcien.
cy oi stock before dividends should be
paid TO stockholders.
= On being questioned, Mr.. Howes said
that II they were forced into bankruptcy
their assets would not probably realize
90 per cent; II they were allowed to settle
themselves, they could pay as high as "a
per cent; but II an arrangement were et-
fected by which they could continue bust.
ness, and give to their creditors the ad.
vantage OF the business connection which
they had built up, nothing would proba'
bly, be lost.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-It Is stated, OF

said, coming from an official source, thai

with certainty that the prospect fol

was several days ago. There were
grounds for believing the report that the
spanish Cabinet had agreed to surrender

How Barnesvillo Came to be a Town.

From the Enterprise.l
Seventy years ago what Is now the
thriving and enterprising city Of Barnes
vile, was an unimproved waste, inhab.
tied only by the wild beasts Of the forest
and struggling bands oil red men.-Lordly
trees stood upon the sites oil residences Of
to-day, and there was nothing here per 50
to create or sustain town. In the year
1905 Mr.. Jas. Barnes, from whom the town
derives It's name, purchased from the gov.
ernment the land upon which now stands
our fourishing little city. Mr.. Barnes was
native oi Baltimore county, Maryland,
and came 10 this State, locating at ST..
Clairsville, in the year 1903. or about three
years previous to the above purchase.
About the time of the purchase, Mr..
Barnes associated himself with Mr.. James
Rownds, In the tanning business, who
came the same year 10 this locality for the
purpoee OF establishing that business.
Two years later, or in 1906, Mr.. Barnes
laid out the town Of BarnesVille. Herein
lies the primal origin Of our city. In law
a town had been created In tact there
was nought but one or two rude cabins, a
lew acres Of ground deprived of natures
endowments, few huge trees that had
yielded to the woodman's ak the rest was
waste Of unbounded wilderness.
