paper from Washington says:
Information as to the recent secret
work in the navy department has leak
ed out and the result is sufficient to JUS
tify the belief that President Cleve-
land is meditating seriously the posi-
bility of hostilities between Spain and
the United States in the near future.
Whether the dispatch is due to a de-
sire to recognize The Cubans as bellig-
erents, or an intention to be in a posi-
ton to enforce the Mora claim is I'M
| certain, but it can not be denied that
the state and navy departments have
! been unusually active in the last few
weeks. Certain branches of the navy
department are now devoting their at
tention to the Cuban matter almost
exclusively.
Acting under recent orders from Sec
rotary Herbert some Of the officers
have been working extra time. securing
data whose character is such to indi-
cate that the president and Secretary
Olney recognize the necessity of pre-
pairing for active Intervention in the
affairs of Cuba. Exhaustive reports
have been prepared for Secretary Her
bert and the president on naval condi-
tons for a descent on Cuba. The cues
ton of transports and the facilities for
landing troops on the island has been
looked into thoroughly and the results
filed with the secretary of the navy.
MORE CAUSE FOR GRIEVANCE
Chicago, Sept. ia special to the
Daily News from Washington says:
Minister Taylor has been Instructed to
| demand from Spain protection for
| American missionaries on the Caroline
islands. This question is several years
| old, commencing when our missionaries
were prosecuted and driven out of the
| Caroline islands by natives. Spain eX-
| ercises authority over the islands and
full reparation was demanded for the
| outrages. Spain responded by the pay
ment of S1I500 indemnity and promis-
\ ing protection to missionaries in the
| future, but by failing to stand by her
! declaration Spain has made it impossi-
| BILE for missionaries to safely return to
the islands. The present demand is
/ that the promise of protection be car
ried out in a satisfactory manner.
MORA CLAIM PAYMENT.
Washington. Sept. 1S.-Methods for
payment of the Mora claim has been
definitely decided and a draft prepared
for transfer tomorrow. 1t will call for
an equivalent in English pounds ster-
ling of 'Si.499,000. made payable to Sec
rotary Of State Olney. The loss Of ssh
600 from the amount of $1,000 900 orig
inally agreed upon is due to the differ
| ence between the value of the Spanish
peso and the American gold dollar.

The Forthwith State.

Do you know how many states there
are in the Union? No, OF course not. No
one knows except school-children and
congressman and flag makers. Every
four years the political arithmeticians
learn the number in the process of fgur-
ing up the Presidential election returns,
but they forget again almost immedi-
ately.
Next years United States flag will have
forty-five stars, the latest being for Utah,
which becomes a state on the 4th of next
July. Utah will get into the flag six
months OF more before she gets into the
Union. She is to be represented in the
new set of regimental colors that Secre-
tary Lemont has ordered for the army.
Her star in the official flag goes to the
right Of the fourth row from the top.

President Faure,s secret.

PARIS, Dec. 10.-Concerning the
rumors of campaign to compel the
resignation of President Faure, the FL
oars discloses the secret with the pub
licity of which the President was threat
ened by his enemies. 1t appears that
President Faure's father-in-law, M. Bel
luot, left home four months after his
marriage, having dissipated all OF
his fortufle, including his wife's dowry,
which made him guilty of breach OF
trust. Belluot's daughter, born after
bis disappearance, was brought up by an
uncle. When NJ Faure wanted to mar
ry the daughter the lady's relatives in
formed him of what had occurred,
whereupon N. Faure declared that he
would not allow an innocent person to
suffer for what had occurred before her
birth and married her. The Figaro says
the story furnishes a further motive for
respecting and loving the person who
has been attacked.
