May to 627sc, but in the reaction which
followed July bled faster than May,

Comments of the Engiish Press on tho
Prssident's Special Message.
LONDON, Dec. 1S.-All of the morn
ing papers to-day devote more or less
OF their editorial space to discussion
of President Cleveland's message on
the Venezuelan question and TO tho
merits OF the question itself. The
Daily Graphic says in IN editorial:
1.-THE epitaph Of the Monroe doctrine
has been written in the Venezuelan
correspondence. President Cleve-
lands message Is document
which self-respecting Americans
will not read with either
pride or pleasure. It only serves to
illustrate another Of the inherent alb
surdities of the modern Interpretation
OF the Monroe doctrine"
The Times says: at Is impossible to

ties would be calamity not only to
themselves, but TO the civilized world,

conclusion that the concessions this
country Is so imperiously summoned
TO make are such rs no self-respectinR
