THE WHITE SQUADRON.

Its Cruise in the Waters of the Gulf
of Mexico.
The Squadron of Evolution has been doing
some good work in the Gulf in the way of
maneuVrng and exercising for the purpose of
formulating a series of drills appropriate to
the new ships now built and being built for
the new Navy, at the same time giving the
people of the Southern cities an opportunity of
seeing the new ships So far the squadron has
visited Galveston, New Orleans, and Pensa-
COLA and is now off Tampa. AT each of these
places the officers have been entertained in
magnificent style and the people permitted to
witness the novel features of modern naval dis
play. AT Pensacola the people of the city en-
tertained the officers at royal banquet and
welcomed them to the harbor in tlattering
toasts by the mayor and the Governor of the
State. A committee of Congress, headed by
the chairman of the Senate Naval Committee,
honored the occasion by their presence and the
whole was a success. The following day del
egation from the city of Atlanta visited the
vessel named for their town and presented the
ship handsome silver service in beftting
addresses.
board of naval officers has recently visited
the harbors of the Gulf Coast for the purpose
of locating and reporting upon site for dry
dock and naval station, as d result of which
there is some jealousy existing between the
authorities of New Orleans and Pensacola, the
board having recommended the former, so it is
supposed, and the latter place is somewhat
worked up, especially SO since one of their old
est pilots put the Boston ashore in taking that
vessel over the bar. The Boston barely touched
and did no damage beyond the fact of her hay

in the Message. The American Minister, after
befriending Congressional leaders in their ex-
tremty, allowed Balmacedist partisans TO take
refuge under his roof The President is nm
willing to order their release without receiving
adequate guarantees for their safety. The brutal
assault on the Baltimores men was followed by
their arrest. and some of them were beaten and
GRIZZLY maltreated Since these Outrages were
evidently caused, not by personal animosity but
by hostility to the uniform which they wore,
prompt and decided action was necessary. The
President expresses regret that the reply OF the
CHILEAN Government was couched in an offensive
tone, and intimates that if satisfactory explana-
tons are not Furnished within reasonable period
he will send to Congress special message Ihere
is no tone of menace here; but there is evidence
of resolute, inhexible determination to vindicate
the honor of the Nation and its flag.
Among the most important achievements OF the
State Department during the year have been
the negotiation of three Reciprocity treaties and
the removal of unjust determinations against
American pork in Europe Similar negotiations
with Southern countries are in an advanced
state, and several additional treaties are prom
ised before the end of the year The President
makes the highly satisfactory announcement that
an agreement has virtually been concluded with
Germany based upon fac market for beet
sugar. As 16 per cent of the imported sugar
supply of the United States comes from Ger
MANY. there is margin for securing in return
material reductions in the duties on American
breadstuffs and provisions. Reciprocity con-
tinues to offer most invigOrating stimulus to
the export trade.
The complications with Italy caused by law
lessneSs in Newt Orleans are discussed In the
Message most judiciously, and the necessity OF
bringing offences against the treaty rights OF
foreigners under the direct cognizance OF the
Federal courts is urged. The Chinese Outrages
are briefly considered and the persecution OF
the Hebrews in Russia is deplored as involving
the enforced transfer Of an Impoverished horde
of immigrants from their Eastern homes to
America-a lamentable result neither good for
them nor for u.s. The submission OF the Behr-
ing Sea dispute to arbitration is described rs
having been arranged on satisfactory terms.
This disposition of the matter is in accord with
the advanced position taken by the United States
in favor of international arbitration. In the
Presidents judgment the same regard for the
principles of civilization ought to have impelled
Great Britain to refer its own boundary quarrel
with Venezuela to arbitration. So long as Eng
land refuses to arbitrate question which is based
on historical facts the United States will con-
tinue to resent any appearance Of foreign en-
croachment ON the American Continent There
is a vigorous touch of the Monroe Doctrine III
this passage of the Message as well as in that
relating to the Nicaragua Canal.

ia. WHY did these young men take part anu
sucb conspicuous and active part, in the caucus
If thew were 80 committed to their constituents
that they could not honorably support the hoh-
nee whoever he might be?
Whatever may be said of the evils OF caucus
rule and of caucus tyranny, nothing can be
nla;ner than that when men lay aside their OBJ
ections to it by going into regular party cauc's
thew must be bound by its action ii they are
honorable men. The time for Messrs Williams
and Hoar to explain their position was oeioie
taking part in the caucus. That was the ume
when they should have informed their asso-
ciates that they were under such ante-elecnon
obligations that they could not abide by the re-
suit under certain circumstances. Ihey gave no
intimation of this until the result was reached
when they mpressively disclosed the fact tha'
thew could not in honor accept it. In other
words thew played their cards for all they were
worth, took advantage OF all the Tricks lhciuu-
ing "biuffing" and then when the game was
lost calmly drew down their stakes with tne
remark that they were under obligations to their
constituents not TO gamble-unless they had

tanned eminence early. But it is rather
ticklish eminence We do not doubt that they
have tried to act conscientiously. But their
conscentiousness is of that questionable sort that
sumbers while the game is in progress, and
wakes into sudden activity when it is lost. Had
thew won there would have been no demonstra-
ton. We shall not stop to inquire whether II
their votes had been necessary to elect Mr. Crisp,
their scruples would have been so insuperable or
their stand so heroic.
The position they have taken is quite above
the standards that govern political transactions.

FOREIGN RELATIONS.

A large part of the Presidents Message is
occupied with luminous review of the foreign
relations of the year. The complications with
Chill come first in the order of Importance, since
that is the only quarter of the National horizon
in which a cloud as large as a mans hand is now
to be deserted. The Presidents exposition Of
the neutrality policy adopted by the Government
is admirable for its lucidity. Diplomatic and
naval officers alike were enjoned during the
civil war to use their influence in the interests
of humanity, and to refrain from interference
in the domestic affairs of Chill. The best proof
that they followed their instructions is the fact
that no official complaint against Minister Egan
or the naval commanders has been presented to
the Department of State. The pursuit OF the
Itata was an obligation imposed upon the Ad-
minjstration by the illegal and hostile conduct
of those who defied the authority of the United
States courts. That this episode ought not to
have excited resentment in Chill is shown by a
citation from the correspondence between the
Junta at Iquique and Admiral Brown. Without
solicitation from the United States the Junta
voluntarily offered to return the vessel, and re-
pudiated the action of the Itata's commander.
The two questions now at issue between the
United States and Chill ere dispassionately stated
