IT WAS A DELIBERATE ACT.
SPAIN'S VESSEL HAD A PURPOSE IN
FIRING ON THE ALLIANCA.

Ex-secretary whitney Says 1t Was Done
With Full Knowledge of the Character
of the Act-He Says That We Have Hap
pened to Come in For Piece of the Cen
eral Brutality and Rufi1anism That Holds
Cuba-It is a Case of Wilfui Insult-Eng-

New York. March 1S.-The following
cablegram was received by the New
York Times to-day from William G.
Whitney, ex-secretary of the navy, in
reply to message sent him by Charles
r. Miller, editor of the Times:
Naples March 19.-I reply to your
dispatch as follows; In considering
what should be done concerning the
outrage perpetrated by the Spanish
man4of-war in firing on the Alliance
one fact should not be lost sight 'of. 1t
was deliberate and with full knowledge
of the character of the act. 1t is GER
tain that no person in command of any
war vessel in the world would be so ig-
norant that firing upon a merchant ves-
sci Of another power ON the high sets
in time of peace would violate the law
officer of any man-of-war in the-world
who has not been sufficiently instructed
to know that 1t is. therefore, a case of
a wilful insult to- the American flag and
people 1 do not recall so wanton an
outrage as happening to any first-class
power in fifty years. An apology scarce
ly wipes out such an affront.
"The truth is we have happened to
come in for piece of the general bru-
tally and ruffianism that hold Cuba.
The thing is a relic of the middle ages
1t is disgrace to us that lies at our
doorstep 1t makes my blood boil for
once. OF course they will apologize
elaborately and discipline the officer
But when we are looking toward him
the general terrorism which holds Cuba
down while they suck her blood will
have been substantially increased at
our expense.
You can gather what my opinion is.
What the government should do is an
other.
"The president in such matters is gen
orally a safe person to follow, but as
you ask my opinion, there it is.

Sullivan Did Not Like Being Called Nut

Boston, March 18.-After an absence
of four years from the ring Jake Kill
rain of Baltimore, Md, faced Steve
O'Donnell of Australia, better known
as Corbett's sparring partner, for eight
rounds at the Suffolk Athletic club to-
night. The contest was declared draw
amid the widest excitement, the like
of which has never been witnessed in
Boston. Kilrain had plenty of SYM
pathizers, among them John L. Sui
livan, who occupied seat behind Kill
rain. He urged his old-time opponent
on during the fight and it seemed to
give Jake encouragement.
O'Donnell although a lighter man
than Kilrain, did not show up to ad-
vantage, and he disappointed the spec
tators, who expected to see a clever
fighter. 1t was apparent as soon as
Kilrain stepped into the ring that he
had been drinking and was not in a
fit condition. His stomach was large
and he was very f1eshy. He had not
lost any of his old time cleverness and
it was used to advantage.
At times it looked as though he would
not be able to continue on his feet as
his wind was poor. but at critical
times he rallied and showed wonderful
At the close of the contest John L.
Sullivan leaped into the ring and rush
ing over to Reeree Shepherd declared
that the contest should have been de-
cided in favor of Kilrain Shepherd
did not appear to mind John LIS ar
gument, but Billy Delaney one of
ODonnell's seconds, exclaimed:
Don't talk to that muttonhead," re-
ferring to John L. Sullivan gave a
warwhoop and sprang at Delaney, who
jumped from the ring and then made
for the ante-room. Some of Sullivan's
friends seized him and Delaney can
thank these gentleman that he is not
now in the hospital. John l.. fumed for
a few moments. but as the object of |
his anger did not put in an appear
ance he went out into the cold, cold |
world, voWing vengeance on Delaney.

Secretary Herbert Replies to a Toast at a
Banquet.
Philadelphia, March 18.-The Hiber-
nian society of Philadelphia observed
the birth of the patron saint of Ireland
by holding it's 124th annual dinner this
evening at the Continental hotel, with
$50 members and a score or more of dis
tinguished guests present. Mayor
Stuar, the president of the society, pre-
sided. The principal guest was Secre-
tary of the Navy Herbert. Preliminary
to the responses to the toasts was the
presentation by the society to the city of
an oil painting of Commodore Barry a
Revolutionary hero. The presentation
speech was made by General Saint Clair
Mullholland, pension agent of Philadel-
phia. After the presentation of the
portrait the memories of st. Patrick and
washington were drunk and then Secre-
tary Herbert responded to the toast,
"The United States"
He said that this was an indissolu-
BILE union of forty-four states and TO-
100000 people, all united as one man in
the belief that the destiny of our coun-
try is to be foremost forever among
the nations of the earth. Glancing at
the country's history he referred to the
fact that the federal constitution as
framed left debatable THE question
of whether or not state had a right
to withdraw from the union. On two
sets of resolutions drawn by Jefferson
and Madison every argument for the
right of q state to secede was based.
In 1915 the Hartford convention laid
down dogmas involving the ultimate
right of states to secede and Henry
Cabot Lodge, now distinguished sena-
tor from Massachusetts, said in his
Fourth of July grafton at Boston in
1879 ''the union was never in greater
peril than in 1914, when New England
threatened secession urless the admin
istration and the ruling party yielded
to her demands"
In 1928 South Carolina threatened to
throw herself on the rights reserved to |
her as a state! In 1860 and 1861 the |
southern states held to the extreme
doctrine of states rights. The question |
had been settled and as both federal |
and state government claimed sover-
eighty there was no arbiter but the |
sword and the civil war settled the
question for all time.
Explaining how it was that the peo-
pie of the south so readily accepted
the results Secretary Herbert said
there never was a moment when the
seeding states wer not under lust
such a government as our fathers
framed it in 1889. When the civil war
was over, when slavery, the cause of
strifefi had perished; when the question
of secession had been settled, when
the people of tn two sctions had learned
on the field of battle to respect each
other as never before; when the south
had larned that no natural barriers
separated her from the moth; when the
seeding states had been estored to
their status as co-equal states there
was nothing left to be hoped or wished
for but union.
