SPAIN NOT EXPECTED TO HURRY

The Cabinet at the White House Decides
 That Great Britain's Demands Nica-
 ragua Are Reasonable and That the Ven.
 ezueIan Affair Calls For No Action Now.
 WASHINGTON, March 23.-Tho cabinet meeting lasted but two hours. everybody being present but Secretary Carlisle who was in New York. The session is said to have been uneventful, thereby dtsap- pointing the expectations of those who looked for some decided aggressive action in foreign affairs. It is said that there was an entire absence of friction between the members although the principal subjects under discussion relating to the various complications in which we have become involved with certain foreign countries were well calculated to exhibit divergence of individual views.
 It is presumed that tho attitude of Great Britain toward Venezuela and Nicaragua was canvasscd. but as far as can be gath cred the secretary of state had no new matter touching this to impart, and it was not believed to be necessary to take any positive action in the absence of an explic- it statement of the purposes of Great Britain.
 Need Not Look to Uncle Sam.
 
 cerned, it is not believed that our govern mont is disposed to take issue with Great Britain to her right to demand an in demnity for the unjust treatment of her consular agent and citizens. inasmuch as the United States has already and repeat edly gone on record as insisting on it's own right in such cases to secure repara- tion for improper treatment of its citizens.
 The only point upon which there can be question is as to the method of collecting the indemnity, but there is reason to be- lieve that in the view of the cabinet the subject need cause no real trouble as Mic aragua doubtless will agree to meet req sOnahle demands from Great Britain when it is made clear to her by our state depart ment that she cannot otherwise rely upon the moral support of the United States, which might otherwise Do disposed to use its good offices to secure an abatC Cmcnt of tho amount of the indemnity if the prin- Ciplo of an indemnity is conceded.
 The situation as to Venezuela is hclicv- ed to be giving the cabinet more concern by far; but, as already stated, it is the dis position to take no arbitrary action in the absence of a statement from Great Britain. In view of the moro wcighty matters now engaging the attention of the admin istratiOn, it is stated that foreign minis ters Ill Washington are likely 10 he, at least for tho present, left undisturhcd in their relations with our government. No answer beyond purely pcrfunCtory one, acknowledging the receipt of our commit nication and promising to make inNcSti- | gation, has been returned by Spain to our l demand in the Allianc;t affair. and while under ordinary conditions this might he resented by our government a disposition ] was shown by tho cabinet tn make all due allowance for the fact that as d result oi the ovorturning of the spanish cabinet the subordinatcS there dare not do anything to compromise the incoming cabinet.

Citizens Are Indignant.

On account of MT. Jones' peculiar dc tCctive methods he is rOundly denounced by tho residents of the place, who say that Dr. Parkhurst never went around dis guised in his stocking feet peeping through windows to get evidence, and that the To- cal pastor is very poor sort of imitation of tho Now York clergyman. They declare that they will compel him to leave town.
 When Hull came up for trial, the great est difficulty was experienced in getting n room in which to try tho case. Justice Cullinan of Bridgeport, accompanied by Sheriff Fcnclon and Prosecuting Attorney Toomcy, went to Monroe to hear the charge. When dinner time came, they were as hungry as bears and went to a farmhouse and applied for something to cat.
 "Be you tho chaps from Bridgeport that's prosecuting Nose Hull?' demanded tho woman.
 The hungry Bridgeport men tried to OK plain, but shc slammed tho door in their faces They rapped on the window and offered her any pricc she cared to CharGc for a meal, but She hunted up n mop stick, and they fled Finally they bribcd n small boy to go to a bakery and buy tom big lemon pie, which they ate in the presence of the amused villagers.
 This experience made the mon angry. When they got into tho room which had been found for a court, they looked stern and uncompromising. Hull was convict cd at once and fined $50 and costs Now tho villagers arc making it uncom- fortable for tbo clergyman. Storckcepers say that they don't want his trade, and they arc furnishing him. it is said, with sour milk and vegetables far from fresh. Mir Jones said:
 "l am still in tho ring and fighting for | the Lord and the law. l mean to break l up the illegal sale of liquor in this place. Either tho demon rum will down mo, | or l will down tho demon rum, and have no lack of confidence as to the result | of the encounter.
 some of the members of his congrega- tion have resigned on account of his ad- venture in his stocking feet. They say | that pastor cannot save souls by crawl ing on all fours and creeping about on 1 porches. On the other hand. n few of the wealthy members say that this is one way to work for religion, and they are deter, | mined to support him. A struggle for the existence of the pastor is on.

Phase

Another phase of tho scalcriCs question which may come up simultaneously with the adjustment of the claims is the fram- ing of a new modus vivendi or other means of protecting the seal herds in Boring sea. Experts appear to agree that the seals will be exterminated soon unless energetic steps are taken, as tho protection afforded by the regulations agreed on by the Paris court of arbitration seem to be insufficient oven when most carefully executed.
 A longer closed season is deemed ossen- tial, and, moreover. tho evidence secured since the Paris tribunal sat shows that the 60 mile limit from the seal islands within which seals cannot be killed is not great enough to insure protection.
 There is some doubt however, as to this matter being madc a subject of the negotiations at present. Although the en- tire question is under consideration in London, no intimation has yet been given OC the course likely to be taken. In view of the interest which British officials take in the subject it would not be surprising # public attention was directed to it in tba house of commons

Negotiating a New Treaty.

PrcliminariuS are being arranged for tho framing of a new treaty between the United States and Great Britain concrrE- ing Boring sea seizures. The negotiations will be carried on in Washington Sir Charles Tuppcr, minister of marine and fisheries for Canada, and other leading statesmen of the Dominion, including probably Minister Foster, will come here to cooperate with Sir Julian Paunccfotc, the British ambassador, concerning tho terms of the treaty. The question of fix ing the date for the meeting is under con sideration.
 It would probably bo at an early day if 1t were not for the fact that the prolonged siege of illness through which Secretary Gresham has passed may mako it dcSira- ble for him to haVu a rest. In that case tho negotiations probably will hc deferred until later in the summer or fall. Tho r"thering of prominent Canadian minis t> rs will be an interesting occasion, all though it is rerallcd with regret that Sir John Thompson, premier of Canada, who recently died suddenly in London, will not again be among those who have long been identified with this subject
 The projected treaty iS rendered ncrcS- sary by the lnactinn of congress on the Boring sea sCiZurvS claims The original claims, which, with interest. amounted to $750, GOO, were Scalcd down to $i=5, 900. President Cleveland advised payment in his message to congress, but an amend ment to carry out the prosidcnt's rccom- mendation Was drfoatcd, It was then sought to provide for an international commission to adjust the terms of settle ment, but this. too, failed. leaving tho matter still open
 Tho purpose of the treaty will he there fore to create n commission t0 hear all the evidence and determine the amount of in demnity tO hC paid the seized SCalCrs. Aft CT being signed the treaty will have to bo submitted tu the senate for ratification. and unless there is an extra session this cannot be accomplished before next De | cembCr. While it is felt that this is an unfOrt tunatc delay in adjusting the claims, yet it appears to be the only means of ad- vancing them to an honorable settlement.
