Minister Dupuy de LONE In Tears.

There was a remarkable scene IN the
state department not long ago. 1t was
that of the minister from Spain, the
proud Senior Dupuy de LONE, In tears
in the presence of the secretary OF state.
Mr.. de LONE was sent h1ther by his
government after Muragua had made
such a mess of his mission with def
mite object in view. That object was to
avert the necessity of SPANS paying
the famous Mora claim. The Spanish
government believed Mr.. de LONE, with
his art and address, his tact, his Chica-
90 experience, his success in manage
ment of delicate matters, would be able
to postpone, if not to defeat outright,
payment of the old claim. But he ran
against one of the strongest men ever
seen in the state department. Mr.. Olney
is a bulldog in tenacity, fighter when
his blood is up.
All of Mr.. de Lome's art was exer-
cised in vain. Useless were his appeals
for time. Mr.. Olney told him in Ian
guage quite unmistakable, though very
polite, that the claim had to be paid.
The dread alternative which the minis
ter and his government had to face was
the appearance of American ships OF war
in Havana harbor, with their command
ers under orders to seize the custom
house after the lapse of a certain period
of time. The naughty Spaniards had
nothing to do but yield, and they did
this rather ungracefully. When he final
ly realized that defeat was inevitable,
Minister de LONE broke down. The
tears came to his eyes and he exclaimed
to Secretary Olney: "This will ruin
me, Mr.. Secretary. am beaten in the
principal object for which was sent
here. 1t will make me the most unpop-
ular man in Spain. My career is at an
end. Walter Wellman in Chicago

The Greatest Canal.

The largest canal in the world is con-
templated by the Russians. This Is 70
be a continuous waterway of 1,OOO
miles, connecting the. Baltic with the
Black sea, and the cost would only be a
little item of 500, 900, 900. 1t would
start from the port of Riga, in the Bal
tic, and use the rivers Dwina, Beresina
and Dnieper ON its route, entering the
Black sea at the CIimean port OF Cher
son. 1t is a project by which mer-
chant ship going at only six knots an
hour would do the whole journey in
week, at a tremendous saving OF time
and fuel. In fat country like Russia
there seems no real difficulty in the en-
terprise, except the eternal want Of ru-
bles, from which the government SUI
