Republican Senators Opposed to Admitting
New stntes-The AntI.Option RLII

WASHINGTON. Dec Two interesting Incl
dents developed in the caucus OF Republican
Senators to-day. the first and most striking
discovery was the absence Of Senator Stewart
of Nevada from the caucus of his former asso-
ciates and the intimation that he does not in
tend to go into amy more " dark lantern" ses-
sions with tho Republicans. His absence
occasioned some severe criticism and caused
much speculation as to how hs will vote here
after on political questions. The second sur
prise was the strong sentiment against the
admission of Arizona. New Mexico. and Utah
to Statehood. The caucus was called ostensi-
bly, for the purpose OF considering vacancies
in the various committees. 1t was not until
after the Senate convened that the call was
issued or circulated. Early In the session to-
day Capt. Bassett WAS designated to pass
around the chamber ard verbally notify the
Republicans that i caucus would be held i'm
mediately after he adjournment. As soon as
the caucus met 1t was apparent that the COM

The Gordon of Foreign Subsidies.

We print side by sido on this page two
letters which describe with sufficient clear
ness the conditions confronting American
commerce on tho northern frontier and
to the south OF this republic.
The circle draw n around the United States

orI Government controlled railways. and by
the subsidized kecls OF foreign steamships,
Is nearly complete. Our Halifax correspond
emit shows that when tho Canadian Pacific
has absorbed the Intercolonial. tho great

permit TO compete under advantageous
conditions with our own railroads will
represent not less than Sl60.00O.0o0 OF
political Investment by tho British en-

effect OF British subsidies upon our Sea
traffic to the more southcrly parts OF this
hemisphere. and tho problem involved In
the French control OF tn" Panama Railway,
for forty years Tho link between our own
part OF the American system as is the line
between Omaha aud Ogden.
From this time on, questions OF inter-
national import arc likely to fill u larger
place .hnn heretofore In national politics.
First and foremost among such questions
Is that Of the protection. maintenance. and
preservation of American commerce, by
land or hy sea. against highly subsidized
foreign competition.

The Emigration of the Mugwump.

has never until now appeared in the politics
OF any other country than the United States.
He turns up since election in New Bruins

or Boston by way OF Bangor.

Probably as long Us the management OF
the affairs OF the Democracy continues to be
unsatisfactory to the 297 Mugwumps OF this

usefulness. and finally constitute here and
there on foreign soil a distinct class like
the enigres OF the French revolution.
