Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
Boston, June 27.-At meeting OF
Harvard Chapter, Phi Beta Kappa, to-
day.. Hon. Edward J. Phelps delivered
an grafton which dealt largely with in
ternational affairs. lie declared that the
time had come when a consistent, dis
tinctive and definite policy in inter-
national relations should be established;
one that would not change with the ext
gencies of politics. 1t should prefer the
right to the expedient; should be neither
aggressive nor defensive; fair towards
others, while just to ourselves; invading
no right we ourselves would not sur
render, and establishing no prece-
dent we may afterwards wish to
evade. Upon the line thus de-
liberately adopted the stand should
be absolutely firm and unyielding. 1--WE
cannot afford to obtain party advantages
at the expense of just foreign relations.
more effectual foreign policy it
is not enough that it should
be just and we'll considered, and that we
should be united in support Of it at
home. We must likewise be known to
be strong enough to enforce it. At
home, We may safely defy the world
in arms, but by land we shall
never be attacked. If we are ever
so unfortunate as to be involved
in war, with any country great enough
to go by sea, the issue must be determine
ed upon the sea and not upon the shore.
l would propose, therefore, as one of the
first steps toward such an International
attitude as it seems our country should as
sumo, and having assumed maintain, that
naval force should be created that should
leave us nothing to fear from collision
with any other naval power in the world.
Arbitration in one of the most plausible
words in the English language. But it
means one thing to those who have had
much to do with it, and quite another to
those who have not. Nevertheless, i'm
perfect as it is, it will continue to be
sometimes employed in certain classes
, of international disputes, especially
the adjustment of money claims
public and private. But the idea that it
can ever be made the ultimate resort OF
nations in those more important quarrels
that involve questions of principle or
honor, or have stirred the blood and
, moved the passions of men, appears to
me altogether chimerical.

Harrison VIII strike a Different
Gait.


The Republican President, who
squeezed through into the White House
by the skin OF his teeth-or, who rather.
became President because seven thou
sand New York Democrats would not
vote for Cleveland-has sufficiently
developed the policy OF his administra-
ton to show that, with all the professions
of devotion to Civil Service reform OF
himself and his party, within a year
from his accession to power not single
Democrat will remain in office. 1t is
somewhat unfortunate that DIR. Cleve-
land allowed his appreciation of his Mug
wump allies to desden him to the
sagacious counsels and practices of Jack
son and Marcy. 1t was an un-
happy circumstance for the Demo-
cratic party that Cleveland referred
his slender majority of about thir-
teen hundred in 1884 to Beecher
and his associate Mugwumps. If Mr..
Cleveland had repulsed Beecher, and
stood by his party, he would, in 1884,
have received a plurality of from thir-
teen to thirty thousand. The career OF
Governor Hill, determined and infex-
ible Democrat. only faithfully prefgures
the triumph which a Democratic Presi-
dent would have received if he had con-
Quoted his administration on distinctively
Democratic lines. The greatest mistake
committed by Mr.. Cleveland during his
whole administration, with the excep
ton Of his message, premature, if not
unwise, on the assembling of Congress
in the early winter of 1887, was the re-
appointment of Pearson. Republican, as
Postmaster OF New York City, after his
commission had expired, and there was
no prescription or implication Of
the Civil Service system calling
for the commission of this mistake.
That secured the continuance in office
of four thousand Republican clerks and
letter carriers. 1t is matter of history
that these officials, continued in office
by President Cleveland, clambered at all
the windows and other coigns of vantage
OF the central postoffice building, at the
great Democratic rally, at which Mr..
Cleveland figured in person, ieering at
and deriding tae man to whose mis-
taken policy they owed their continuance
in Office. Whatever other mistakes Mr..
Harrison may commit-and they will
undoubtedly be grievous and vital-we
may be assured that he will not furnish
his political opponents with club with
which to beat out his own official brains,
even if he has to approve himself the
greatest political hypocrite of the age to
break the malign political parallel.

Fatal Flaw In Signatures

SACRAMENTO, June 27.-Controller
Dunn, today, refused to audit the war
rant for the purchase of 500, 900 worth OF
Los Angeles county bonds for the benefit
of the school fund, on the ground that,
while authority was given to issue the
bonds, it was given in 1887, and, while
the Endorsement thereof reads, "Signed
this third day of January, 1885," yet the
bonds are actually signed by S. M. Perry,
chairman of the Board OF Supervisors,
and D. w. Hamlin, auditor, officials who
did not take their positions for Is months
subsequent to the time when the sigma
lures to the bonds are all alleged to have
been appended.

HAYTIEN POLITICS.
Leaitime's Goose is Cooked, with
HippOIYle Turnkpit.

New York, June 27.--The first au.
thentic news from Hayti in two months
came yesterday. The steamer Prince
Wilhelm, which left Port.au-Prince June
goth, arrived yesterday and brought
twenty-five merchants, who say that ii
is only question of time when Hippo
lyte's army drives Legitime and bis
friends from Port-au-Prince.
The reason they left Port au- Prince
was that affairs in Hayti reached such q
point that business was out of the ques.
ton. Everything is stagnant. The
town is overrun with ruffians. There is
almost no money at all, and those who
can get hold of little are leaving the
country.
Provisions are high. Flour is selling
at 500 barrel, and the poorer classes,
who are suffering for the necessaries OF
life, are constantly on the verge OF insur.
rection.
In the hills behind Port. au-P rince the
army of Hippolyte lies encamped, and
the city, in measure, is in state Of
siege.
Among the passengers on the steam
ship Wilhelm was G. B. Nilsson, a resi-
dent of this city, who, four months ago,
went to Hayti to enter the employ Of
Legitime as an engineer of man-of-war.
He said he returned because he found
the situation there too warm for him.
Legitime stood little chance against Hip
polyte, whose army was well equipped,
and numbered ten thousand stronger.
When the speaker left, Hippolyte's
troops were within four miles
If Port-au.Prince by land, and
fourteen miles by the sea. He said
the reason for Hippolyte not rushing on
Port-au-P Prince Immediately was becaus Sc
he was awaiting signal from friends in
the city. Legtime's former commander
in chief, General Piquant, had evacu.
ated Grand Saline for consideration OF
$3.50 900, and succeeded in leaving the
island with the money. Three ministers
of war had held sway within as many
months, and one of these, General An
selm Prophetic, appropriated $3.50, 900
of government money and resigned.
AS to the Clyde steamer Ozama being
captured by the Haytien gunboats, the
truth of the matter was said to be that
the vessel was only held little over
three hours, and was released when
Captain Kellogg, of the U. s. steamer
Ossippee, made demand upon Legitime.
At the first demand it was refused,
except under the condition that
the Ozama would not go to
Gonaives. Captain Kellogg wrote upon
the back of Legitime's note, that if
the vessel was not released within five
hours and $1,000 paid over by Legi-
time, he would lombard the city. The
demand was Immediately complied with,
and the IS 900 paid to Captain Kellogg.

by Eng lam a d ID merica.

LONDON, June 27.-The action of the
Portuguese Government in cancelling
the concession it had granted for the
building of railroad at Delagoa bay, has
created much comment. The Globe
today says that Portugal is guilty
of an unwsrrantable breach of faith
and of shameful dishonesty. Lord Sails
bury, last night, said in the House of
Lords that the Government had requested
Portugal to refrain from hasty action. 1t
is understood here that Secretary Blaine,
in response to a petition, will send an
American war vessel to Delagoa bay to
look after American interests.

AN MODEST HELD
DESTRUCTION Of suspenston Rridae.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Jan. 10.-A report
from Niagara Falls of the bridge disaster
says:
The anchorage cables and the upright
cable supports are all in place. Crowds
of people are watching the swaying move
ments of those parts of the iron work still
hanging over the river. Part of the foot
and carriage portion of the bridge can be
plainly seen reclining at the foot of the
Canadian bank across the river. There
is little doubt but the bridge will be re-
built. The loss is thought to be about
$50, 900. Never before in the recollec-
ton of the oldest citizen has the village
experienced such a breeze
The last person to cross the bridge was
DR.. j, w. Hodge, He states after go

he was obliged to get down on his hands
and knees and slowly crawl along, cling

was mouing slowly along, and buttons
were torn from his coat. The
bridge groaned and croaked,

break in the center before he could pass
that point. 1t was too late to retrace his
steps, however, and he was obliged to
