Not only is the course of Gresham and
Blount extremely un-American in its form
and spirit, but it is also in direct opposition
to the civilizing and outstanding influ-
ence. of the Hawaiian Islands which is play
ing into British hands, and in direct OPP
position to the efforts of the American
board of missions and to the American
government tor more than 60 years, in all
of which period there has been a uniformly
continuous and patriotic American policy.
l may also make as preliminary remark
regarding the repeatedly asserted opposi-
ton of those who have. assailed my official
action-that l was prepared for and stimu
lated to it by the accomplished and thor
oughly American statesman who occupied
the department of state most of the period
of President Harrson's administration.
1t is sufficient to say this expressed sur
mise is utterly without foundation. We
know our statement on this point accords
with what eX-Secretary Tracy has recently
asserted in that regard.
Still more, may properly add that the
lines of official duty as followed by myself
and Captain Wiltse, and the course of the
administration and of the senate committee
on foreign relations in the critical Hawaiian
days of January and February last, were
exactly on the lines marked out by Secre-
tary Marcy in 1854 and by Secretary Bayard
in his dispatch to Minister Merrill on July
u, 1887. Marcy's instructions and draft
of treaty provided for annexation. Bayard's
Instructions of 1887 held the United States
minister and naval commander at Homo
lulu responsible for the protection of
American life and property and preserva-

1t is proper for me to preface my answer
by briefly alluding to the fact that those
familiar with international rules and pro-
ceedings and who have had diplomatic ex-
perience must be astonished that Secre-
tary Gresham and his commissioner should
make before the world such persistent eff
fort to discredit the recent agents of the de-
partment they now represent and which
was once represented by Thomas Jefferson,
William l.. Marcy, William II. Seward and
James q. Blaine.
The general addition of such policy by
our department of foreign affairs would
tend to weaken greatly our influence with
foreign countries in any future effort and
serve to make the American diplomatic
service contemplate in the eyes of the
world

WHO WAS TO BLAMEs

There is marked disposition alread,
manifest to hold the railroad authori
ties responsible for the terrible accident
at the Lonsdale grade crossing or
Wednesday morning.
Perhaps this feeling is the most uatn.
raj one under the circumstances. II
can scarcely be justified at the present
time, however.
Ii is probable fact that the men in
charge OF the train that crashed through
the excursion sleigh observed all the
rules and usages of the railroad com
pany. The question of culpability will
be directed straight at the company
itself, therefore, and the rules and regu.
lations. Possibly the construction of the
road and the management of grade
crossings, will be the subjects to demand
the attention of the coroner and the
railroad commissioner.
However desirable such reform NAV
be, it is scarcely consistent with prac.
teal ideas TO demand that there shall
be no grade crossings, especially i'm
sparsely settled country and suburban
districts. The conditions of railroadinp
will not admit of the serious discussion
of the total elimination of the grade
crossing for a long time to come.
The loss Of life in this accident oupbt
to lead to very rigid and thorough ex.
animation of the general status of rail.
roads in this state, with special refer.
ence to the safety of the public and TO
the adequacy of the control that the
state now has over them.
1t is certain that the state has not nj
present sufficient power to enforce its
laws. That is, the railroad commits.
sioner has not, nor has any other
specific officer.
This accident affords an excella,,
opportunity for an overhaulin0 of tho
whole matter.

PRESIDENTS MLEoD AND CLARE

Not long since President Mcleod OF
the Reading railroad appeared before
the chamber of commerce in Boston and
made speech in which the future
greatness Of that city was discussed and
plans for attaining that desirable end
were outlined.
Mr.. Mcleod spoke in an encouraging
tone. He mapped out large and com.
prehensive terminal system, and init
mated that his railroad could be de-
pended upon to meet half way every
progressive step of the citizens of Boston.
Tomorrow night President Clark of
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford road Is to address the Commercial
Club on terminal facilities. IL will be
interesting to get, at first-hand, Mr..
Clark's own views of this perplexing
question. II will be instructive TO learn
his explanation for the palpable DELAY
which has occurred on the terminal
work
incidentally it will be interesting TO
note whether Mr.. Clark has any sugges-
tions to make as to the best means of
attaining that Greater Providence which
all desire, and whether this city is to be
the real terminus of his great road with
all that the term implies, or is TO remain
terminus in name only and a way sta
tion in fact.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1893-01-20

such bills Of lading. 1t offers TO remit
all docking charges to steamers loading
at its docks, and TO remove the usual
loading charge Of 1t cents per bushel to
all steamers loading grain at its eleva-
tor. As result il seems now not un-
likely that new line of foreign steam
ers may be started with Boston as the
western terminus.
The merchants of Providence need TO
ponder over this fact. They need to
realize the difference between Boston
and their own city. The former built
up to its present prosperity by just such
enterprising business concessions as
those noted above and the latter kept
back by the lack of push.
IL will bear repeating to Providence
capitalists that all that is now true of
Boston's growth might have also been
true of Providence. As terminus for a
European, South American or coast
wise line OF steamers Providence has
many advantages over Boston. There
are plenty of railroads running to this
city which could return freights for a
large number of ships if only little
outlay was made in the way of termi-
nails at tidewater.
The business Is available. II belongs
to this city by its natural advantages.
ana yet 1t does not come here. Why?
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1893-01-20
FOR PROVIDENCE.

The NEWS recognizes the need that
exists in this city for newspaper that
shall be chiefly devoted to the fostering
and furthering of its particular inter-
ests, to an intelligent and sympathetic
exposition of the topics that are upper
most in the minds of its people, and the
presentation each day of the news of
the city.
1t is our high aim to supply this need
mot in an ideally perfect manner all
at once, but always working toward
what we conceive the ideal home news
paper of great, growing, energetic
city should be.
To this end we design to constantly
strengthen and extend the scope of the
local news, already more varied, cover
ing wider and more interesting field
and more in volume than is given by
any other paper.
While what the News is now doing in
the line of publishing the news of the
city and championing its peculiar inter-
ests is beyond the mark ever made by |
any other paper, it is by no means the
limit of our intention. Various plans to
still further extend this line of work are
being matured and will be from time to
time put in operation.
If the people viii patiently wait for
the working ont of these plans. and
allow for the special hardships attend
INT upon the establishment of all new
papers, we promise them, within a year,
he best city newspaper not only in New
England but in the country.
Make note Of this.

The managers of the Boston and

that any project that will help the trade
OF Boston will help their road, and they
lend helping hand TO all enterprise.

MORE ROOM.

The petition of City Gauger Man.
chester made yesterday to the Board OF
Aldermen for an office in which to
transact the city's business, indicates a
condition at the City Hall which must
be an unpleasant one for the citizens 10
contemplate. Mr.. Manchester had ap-
piled to the city messenger and found
that there is not even desk room for him
at the city building.
The city gauger is not alone in his
plight. There is the city weigher the
city truant officer, the harbor master.
the inspector of milk, the inspector of
meats, and as many more legally ap-
pointed city officers, large portion of
whose time is spent in the city's service.
whose work naturally belongs in some
one of the various departments of the
government, but none of them have
offices in the City Hall, for the reason
that there is no room for them there.
The fact exists that although the
City Hall has never been completed
and has only been in use few years. il
Is already too small TO furnish accom-
modations for all those who are engaged
in the various departments of the city's
service. Many of the departments now
located there are crowded for room.
and in the last few years frequent occa.
sions have occurred when work has
been done outside the building.
There seems to be no way of avoiding
the fact that at no very distant date
further accommodations will need to be
secured for the transaction of the city's
business. This is not an agreeable fact
for the taxpayers to contemplate, par
ticularly in view Of the proposed new |
loan to meet expenses already incurred
and further expenditures in the city's
work. But the need of more room is
and the economy of time and
of service, as well as the saw
ng Of rentals, are subjects worth con-
idering as offsetting the extra expense
or a new municipal building.
