If we have correctly interpreted the inscription 1t reads as follows sIn memory of Capt John Sprague who died April s, 1763, in the 77th year of his age. ]" If the dates are correct Capt Sprague must have been higher officer than the so called captains of general train ing days" He died previous to the Revolutionary war. Now the question arises who was Capt Sprague, and in what war or from what source did he obtain the title of Captain? Any infor- nation in regard to Capt Sprague will be gladly received and published by the NEWS. The G. A. R. post wish to decorate Capt Sprague's grave if it is proper to do so.

A Long Range Menace.

The reason most DANGEROUSLY
urged for the annexation of Hawaii
is, the New York World says, "that
otherwise some European Govern
ment may seize the islands as mill
tary base, and thus threaten our
western coast with revenge and ra-
pine. If anybody's nerves have been
disturbed by this prospect, little
reflection upon facts may serve as
an agreeable anodyne. Hawaii lies
more than 1000 miles from our near
est coast, or about as far away as
Ireland. England has never yet
bombarded us from the Irish head
lands, nor has her military control
of Ireland ever been regarded by
our strategists as a source of danger
10 us. Indeed, England occupies
islands that are really very near to
us-the Bahamas, for example-and
the fact does not appal us. Worse
still, she holds the whole continent
Immediately north of us, with only
an imaginary line for boundary over
a large part of the distance between
the two oceans. Yet the Republic
survives. The assumption that for
eign possession of Hawaii would be
military disadvantage TO us is pure
fudge"

CHINESE RESTRICTION ACT.

Assistant Secretary Curtis Says the
Law VIII be Enforced.
WASHINGTON, May 19.-This conver-
sation between Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Curtis and a correspondent is
given for what it is worth:
Does the Administration intend to en-
force the Chinese Registration Act?"
Certainly" said Curtis; ''it is the law
of the land, and as such will be enforced,
although I have no authority to speak on
the matter one way or the other concern
ing the policy of the department"
"Have you talked with Secretary Carl
isle?"
II have talked some with him, but l
know l have no authority to say just
what will be done, when or how. OF
course, the public naturally desires to
know what will be done. They must
rest content under the belief that the de-
partment will do what is right. We do
not want to take any hasty steps that
will render us individually liable for
damages as a result of false imprison-
ment or the wrongful deportation of Chi
nese persons. We want to wait until all
questions of law have been settled"
'Our people understand that all was
settled with the decision of the United
States Supreme Court" said the CORE
spondent.
1.-THE constitCtionality of the law was
settled, but there are many points about
how to execute the law that remain to be
decided, as, for instance, just exactly who
shall be arrested, by whom, how, when
or where imprisoned, how deported, etc.
The mandate of the United States Su-
preme Court has been sent to the Circuit
Court Of New York, and the legal points
will all soon be Strengthened out"
"WilI the department deport Chinese
until all the money appropriated for that
purpose is used up?"
~ do not know anything about that
part of the matter" said Curtis.
''Some people have an idea that the Adj
ministration don't want the law en-
forced" said the correspondent.
"They have no reason to think sou
said the Assistant Secretary "The duty
of the department is to execute the laws
of Congress-"

by the Pacific Mail people discovering
what the Panama folks were doing and
making overtures for settlement. With
these steamships in the hands of the rail
road company the Pacific Mail people
saw nothing but losing battle ahead.
A rather curious fact in connection
with this is that C. P. Huntington, a
director in the Pacific Mail, is a director
and heavy investor In the United States
and Brazil Mail steamship Company,
and when the vessels of the latter line
were sold a few weeks ago they were bid
in, as was generally understood, for
Huntington's account.
Regarding the disposition ofthese ships,
if settlement OF the troubles between
the Pacific Mail and Panama Railroad is
brought about, Huntington said to-day
that he could not tell what would be done.
Others interested in the matter say that
there is business enough for more vessels
than the Pacific Mail Company has at
present on the Atlantic side, and they can
be run profitably by that company.

The Ladies' Come Near Having a
Serious Row.


CHICAGO, May I9.-The Ladies' Con-
gress came near having a serious row to-
day, on account of an alleged slight put
upon Mrs. Helen NJ. Cougar. 1t seems
that the lady's name was omitted from all
the official programmes. Her friends re-
sented this insult, but when to-day it was
reported that Mrs. May Wright SewaIl,
President of the National Council of
Women, had yesterday issued a verbal
order to the Presidents of the various de-
partment meetings to exclude Mrs. Gou-
gar from participation in speech-making
things became decidedly warm. Mrs.
Cougar started on still hunt, and Presi-
dent G. G. Bonney had to step in as peace
maker. The upshot of the whole affair is
that Mrs. Sewall, who left this afternoon
on lecture tour, while declining to talk
to reporters on the subject, intimated that
she issued no such orders. Mrs. Hen
rotin, Nice-President, wrote a letter to
Mrs. Cougar, saying she knew nothing of
such an order, and President Bonney
poured oil on the troubled waters and
all was serene again.
The attendance at the meetings TODAY
and this evening exceeded any previous
day of the congress. To-day was the last
of the department and special congresses.
The hall devoted to the meeting of the
National Society Of Daughters of the
Revolution was crowded with delegates.
intermixed with curious ones who came
to see Letitia Green Stevenson, President
General and wife of the Vice President of
the United States.
Another particularly large audience
was that in which Mrs. French Sheldon.
explorer, delivered an address. MANY
topics were discussed in the different
branches.
The National Alliance of the Unitarian
and other liberal Christian women, mem
bers Of the Women's Unitarian Confer
ence of the Pacific Coast and others. held
a union meeting tonight, Rev. Ida c.
Hultin presiding. She aroused the great
est applause by urging her women hear
ers to go en- mass to the Worlds Fair on
Sundays, for principles sake. 1t was
late this evening when the members of
the international Council settled the
cause CT their differences-the distribu-
tion of offices to the various countries. 1t
did not take long after that to elect the
following officers: Lady Aberdeen.
President; May Wright Sewall, Vice
President; Minnie Maria Martin Record
ing Secretary; Baroness Alexandria,

Fight Between the Pacific Mail and
Panama Road Nearing an End.
NEW YORK, May I9.-It was reported
to-day that the fight between the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company and the Pam
ANA Railroad Company is about to be
ended. Negotiations for a settlement of
the existing differences are under wav.
and it is generally believed they will 90
through satisfactorily. c. p Hunting
ton said a settlement was being talked
over between the opposing companies.
but he could not disclose the basis of it
until later. If there was no hitch in the
proceedings, he said, the public would
know the plan of adjustment early next
week.
The Panama Railroad officials would
say no more about the matter than did
Mr.. Huntington, but from information
obtained here to-day, it would appear
that the Panama Railroad reople had
forced the Pacific Mail Company to come
to its terms. 1t seems that within the
last ten days the Panama Company OBJ
tanned under charter five large steam
ships of the United States and Brazil
Mail Steamship Company which were
sold at auction few weeks ago to satisfy
claims against the company. These
steamers the Panama people intended to
put on their line between here and Colon.
The charters were to be signed this week,

lev. Charles L. Thompson. Chairman
OF the Committee on Cooperation With

Without action upon the reports the
General Assembly adjourned till to-mor-
row morning, and proceeded in body to
call at the White House. The President
and Mrs. Cleveland received the visitors
In the East Room. DR.. Craig, Moderator,
was presented to the President by DR..
Bartlett, Chairman of the Committee of
Arrangements, and made brief, felicit-
Gus address, closing with an invitation
to the President to attend the assembly.

and which is associated with so many

vidual experience. We still profess to be

should be unmindful of the restraints of
religious sentiment. You, therefore.
will, l hope, permit me to say, though
you do well to insist upon the conscious
discharge of off1cial obligations, and
though you ought never to shirk from
the exposure of official shortcomings, a
contribution you owe towards accom-
pllshing good government will not be
1ully made unless you teach people by
precept and example that they will find
safety and welfare in enforcing upon
public servants the observation of the
mandates OF Christianity and morality"
The visitors were then presented by
name to the President and Mrs. Cleve-
land. They then strolled through the
took their departure.
This evening a general meeting in be-
half of Sunday school work in the
churches was held.
In the General Assembly to-day per-
haps the most interest clustered about the
names of members of the Judiciary Com
mlttee, for this is the committee that will
pass upon the appeal in the case of DIR.
Briggs, and will report to the assembly
upon the question of the propriety of
that body entertaining the appeal. Rev.
DIR. George D. Baker,. selected to act as
Chairman,sis classed among the conserv-
atives, and as such his appointment
gave the greatest satisfaction to that fac
ton of the assembly, by all odds the
largest. The committee for the most
part is made up of men who are known
to be conservative, that is, to be more
definite anti-Briggs men.
A series of women's meetings in con-

CHICAGO. May 19.-The gatel1eepors at
the Columbian Exposition were busily
engaged all day to-day admitting visitors.
There was no special attraction at the
Worlds Fair grounds, but the weather
was bright and warm and throngs Of peo-
pie took advantage of the fact to visit the
buildings.
This afternoon the President of the

Nice-Presidents held reception in the
Woman's building in honor of the dis
tinguished women in attendance on the

When the National Commission assem-

the question of Sunday opening under
consideration, announced that it would
be ready to report in the afternoon.
This was objected to by some of the
members of the committee, and the mat
ter was finally put over till Monday.
a communication was received from
President Higginbothan of the local di-
rectory, refusing to enter into any in
formal conference concerning the resig-
nation of Theodore Thomas as Musical
Director, but saying that he would be
pleased to have formal one.
The Chinese building was dedicated
this morning. The dedication consisted
chiefly in serving the invited guests with
cups of strong tea without sugar or
cream.
The Austrian village was formally
opened to the public to-day. A banquet
was given the Worlds Fair officials by
the Austrian Consul General in honor of
the occasion. A cablegram was sent

THE JEWISH QUESTION.
Russia's Right to Exclude Objection
able Glasses Conceded.


WASHINGTON, May 10. - Secretary
Gresham has taken determined stand
in refusing to make any objection to the
action of the Russian Government in de-
clining to allow naturalized Russian
Hebrews to enter that country from the
United States. The matter came before
him when adelegation of prominent New
York Hebrews called upon him and
asked him to interfere in a case where
the Russian Consul-General at New
York refused to ViSe passport of the
wife of nathralized Russian Hebrew.
The Secretary said that, however harsh
and unjust such law might seem to
Americans, it was none the less an edict
of the Russian Government, and applied
TO a subject over which that country had
sole jurisdiction. He added that it was
impossible for the United States to inter-
fere in matter which was simply an
instance of the right of Russia to exclude
undesirable persons from its territory.
In connection with this matter 1t is
stated tonight that the North German
to Lloyd Steamship Company has refused
transport any more Hebrew immigrants
to the United States. The Cunard Com
pany will also adopt this rule in the near
future. Precautions are being taken to
prevent the arrival of Russion Hebrew
immigrants in Hamburg from Russia
Commissioner of Immigration Stump is
conducting a vigorous policy to prevent
any further immigrants from being taken
on board steamers at Hamburg bound
for the United States.

The Outlook Never Better Than at the
Present Time.
NEW ORLEANS. May 9.-Representa-
tive business men declare that the busi-
ness outlook was never better, and point
to increased acreage in corn and sugar
cane crops as evidence of the assertion.
The farmers of Louisiana have been turn
ing their attention to hog-raising during
the last year, and have thus far raised
enough to supply the home market and
have margin for shipment. Planters
and those interested directly in crops
favor the imposition of a duty in prefer
ence to bounty system. The financial
situation is generally satisfactory, the
clearances of last week being 20 per cent.
over those of the corresponding week
last year. This is evidenced By tho
organization Of three new savings banks
in New Orleans. The capital is all paid
up and comes from New Orleans people
only. The statement made by the banks
on May 9Th showed all to be in healthy
state, and evidenced marked increase in
point Of loans over last year.

to arrive, among whom was Colonel
Wilson of the army, Commissioner Of
Public Grounds and Buildings, who
wore full-dress VI form in his capacity
as military represeL tative of the Presi-

along the east side of the platform for the
passage of the royal party from the train
to the carriage. Then a detachment of
police drove back ell iutruders from the
station.
When the train steamed in the Princess

pressed forward and Commander Davis
presented him to the Infanta. The greet
ing over, Secretary Gresham offered his
arm to the Princess, and, preceded by
| Colonel Wilson and Mr.. Parke, and fol-
lowed by the Infanta's suite, walked
down the carpeted platform TO the carri-
age entrance of the station The crowd
was something enormous, and the Prin-
cess looked pleased as she saw the throng
gathered to receive her. She chatted gaily
IN English with Gresham all the while.

horseback led, and four troops of cavalry
formed the escort for the royal party. Six
sergeants OF cavalry acted as bodyguard
to the Princess, and following her carri-
age came carriages containing her suite
and members of the receiving party.
The Princess seemed particularly
pleased at the manifestations Of popular
graciously.
1t was 500 when the head of the column
of troops turned off Pennsylvania ave-
nue. and came up to the hotel. The
Princess alighted, and, taking the arm of
Secretary Gresham, and followed by her
husband and the Spanish Minister, en-
tered the summer annex to the hotel,
| being greeted by a loud shout by the
| assembled crowd. Immediately upon
entering the house the Princess passed
into the reception room, accompanied by
Secretary Gresham and Assistant Secre-
tary Quincy and her suite. A moment
later the representatives of the Govern

Beautiful forai offerings from Mrs.
