An Excursion Agreed Upon.

An Interesting Meeting Saturday Night
An Excursion Agreed Upon.
Despite the warm weather more than quo
rum of the Spinner Memorial Association was
in attendance at the regular monthly meeting
held at the rooms Of the board Of trade on
Saturday evening. The meeting was called to
order by the president, Miss Libbie Stoner, and
the minutes Of previous meeting were read.
which partially outlined the beginning Of very
interesting summer program
Ways and means for raising funds for the
proposed Spinner statue were discussed pro and
con. and It was decided that q moonlight excur-
SION down the Potomac to Marshall Hall and
Indian Head would be profitable and ENJOYABLE.
consequently Saturday evening, the 18th instant,
was appointed as the time for the excursion,
and the boat, River Queen-around which clus-
tiers bit of history, she being the craft that
bore President Lincoln to the peace congress in
1S64-has already been chartered for the occa-
sion. A fine string and brass band will furnish
music, and dancing. promenading, singing. &C.,
will be in order, while ice cream and cake and
other delicacies will be served during the entire
evening. The boat will leave the wharf at 6: 80
p. m. and return at II pm.
Mrs. Sheridan and Mrs Ralston prominent
members Of the association, both Of whom will
sail for Europe in a short time, were rendered
q vote OF thanks for valuable services in the
Spinner cause.
After the disposal Of business questions q
member Of the council stated that few DAYS
ago letter was received in this city addressed
to Gen. Francis E. Spinner, the writer being a
lady In the west. who urgently requested him to
secure for her the Chicago post Office, with the
largest possible salary he could demand and the
full assurance that her tenure of Office and
salary should be continued through an indefi-
nitsly long period of time.

England and South America.

The following complaint concerning the in
roads the United States is making into the
Latin-American trade Of Great Britain appears
as an editorial in a recent issue of the British
Trade -yourno! of London: while the WASH
ington authorities apparently leave no stone UNI
turned to develop the exports of the United
States regards South and Central America,
Mr.. ". f. Curtis information bureau being
especially active and useful. tine British foreign
Office shows strange indifference to the in
,erests of English merchants. The case Of
Brazil has been cited more than once. and there
are several other countries in that part of the
"A with whom treaties might be concluded.
Last month We called attention to Guatemala
as an instance of this. and in another column
we publish a letter which throws some light
upon the question. 1t appears that Guatemala
wishes to exact too much in return for a COM
mercial treaty with this country sum for the
construction Of a road to the sea and certain
concessions relating to Belize. This is unfor-
tunate, to say the least, but it may be asked
whether, at this juncture, the interests of Brit
ish trade do not demand reOpening of the ne
gotiations. But here we again met by the
question. whose business is it to look after such
a treaty? The foreign Office, the colonial Office
and the commercial department are more or less
affected and il is easy to shift the responsibility
from one department to another. With a min
lister of commerce at the head of affairs perhaps
a successful move might be made in the matter"

The Soldiers Homes.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The writer Of this has frequently been asked
what treatment the inmates receive in these in
stitutions. My reply is that in the volunteer
homes they receive plenty Of good beef and
bacon, potatoes, vegetables, butter, coffee or
tea. and all these homes are noted for the ex-
cellent quality of their bread, but there is one
feature Of the cooking in the volunteer homes
which is not acceptable, and that is that all
meats and vegetables are cooked by steam In
one manner their liberties are curtailed. and
that is they are not permitted to go outside the
home grounds except by special pass. In the
regular home in the vicinity of this city the in
mates can go in and out at will. provided they
do not violate the rules by getting intoxicated
Their food supply at present is better than it
has ever been before. For instance Yesterdays
dinner consisted of the best roast beef mashed
potatoes, lettuce, onions and tomato stew. with
coffee and bread and plenty Of good rice pud-
ding. The inmates of the home say their treat
ment is very good and they attribute it to the
personal supervision of Capt. David L. Irwin,
deputy governor as the food supplies are in his
charge.
Gov. Orlando B. Wilcox is anxiously await
ing the arrival Of his relief and many Of the In
mates think it will be Gen. John c. Kelton. who
is the present adjutant general Of the army, and
who will be retired on the oath Of this month.
There il an almost general wish among the in
mates that he may be the man. The writer of
this has been an inmate Of the volunteer homes,
but is not entitled to the benefits Of the regular
home. j. A. s.

A DEBATE AT THE CURTIS SCHOOL
Friday afternoon spirited and meritorious
debate took place at the Curtis building be-
tween three of the High School boys and a like
number of the pupils of Mr.. Murch's room.
Are the anti-Chinese Laws Unsuitable" was the
subject. Messrs- Sampson. Leetch and Wilson
contending they were and Messrs. Birch. Lacey
and Shea taking the negative side. After some
clever arguments had been made on both sides
the alternatives hit upon a convincing strain
and captured the day.
THE WEST STREET PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
The announcement made yesterday morning
by the Rev. Frank E. Williams of West Street
Presbyterian Church that his temporary pastor
ate over the congregation would terminate on
the following Sunday and that the Rev. Dr.
Fullerton would resume his clerical duties on
his return from Europe. early in July. was
great surprise to those in attendance. About
year ago DR.. Fullerton rendered his resignation
on account of ill health. At a meeting of the
congregation il was decided TO give him a wears
Mr.. Williams, fresh from the theological semi
nary. was engaged to fill the position for the
time specified. The result is that Mr. Williams
has proved himself good pulpit orator and the
work Of the church, in all its branches has been
successfully carried out. MANY of the con-
gregation regret to lose him. and il is said that
Mr.. Fullerton will again tender his resignation.
No action will be taken until the latter's re-
turn.
AGAINST DANCING.
The evils OF dancing were presented by Rev.
W. r. Graham, the pastor of the Congress
Street NJ. P. Church, in the course of a sermon
last evening. He condemned dancing as injuri-
Gus and criminal.

SATURDAYS SENSATION.



A dozen people passing by TIE STAR Office
shortly before O'Clock on saturday afternoon
watched man as he pasted on one of the big
plate-glass windows a bulletin, which had on it
the information that James G. Blaine had sew
cred his connection with President Harrison .
cabinet. That was the first intimation the pub
lie had Of the political sensation Of 1892. Then
came The STAR itself, with the correspondence
and a brief but comprehensive statement OF its
transmission More was not obtainable at that
time. Both the President and the ex-Secretary
declined to do more than state that they had
nothing to say. Members Of the cabinet called
at the White House as soon as they got the
news, but what trsnspired in the conferences
WAS not made public. To all the newspaper
men who desired interviews the same reply was
given.
The only exception to this WAS in the case of
Secretary Elkins He told STAR reporter that
the President would, despite Blaines resigna-
tion be nominated on the first ballot. This ex-
preston escaped him before the President re-
quested his cabinet To abstain from comment Of
any and every description.
Later in the afternoon the President sent for
Assistant Secretary Wharton of the State De-
partment. Mr.. Wharton was then notified that
he would be required to act as Secretary for
the present
YESTERDAYS MOVEMENTS.
Yesterday was calm as any other Sabbath at
the White House. Secretaries Foster, Elkins
and Rusk and Attorney General Miller called
and remained in consultation with the Pre-i-
dent for some time. Their visits were made
after the President returned from morning
service at the Church of the Covenant.
There were number OF callers at the Blaine
mansion yesterday, but only a small proportion
Of them saw the eX-Secretarv. Among those
who did see him were ex-Minister John W. Fos-
ter and Senator and Mrs. Chandler.
FATHER CRoNIN's DENIAL.
Father Cronin, editor of the Buffalo Catholic
Union and Times. denies emphatically the pub
hshed statement that Nh. Blaine sent for him to
obtain his views TO the effect of the Ducey
letter upon the Catholic voters. He declares
that his visit to Mr.. Blaine was purely acci-
dental and had no political purpose. He merely
called to pay his respects. and in the interview
the name of Father Ducey was not even men,
toned.
