When the Emancipated Woman came

What is the prospect of union between

with kindness and patience he would not

Christians would come into the Roman
Church. The principal reason why they

CoNsUL-GENEKAL MORss.

lie Flatly Denies That He Is Ambiti-
Gus TO Succeed EmbasSador EuStis.
CHICAGO. Oct. 3.-S. +. Morss, United
States Consul General at Paris. who is
away from his post on leave of absence,
passed through this city to-day. In the
course of an Interview he denied that
there was any foundation for the numer-
Gus stories that have been circulated re-
garding the alleged dissatisfaction of the
State Department at Washington with
negotiations in general with France, and
the Waller case In particular. He stated
that there was no truth IN the report that
the President called him home because OF
the confidence reposed in him to gain In
formation on these points.
MIR. MorSs continued: The facts are
that | have nothing to do with the diplo-
matte service, and have not been called
home by anybody. l came home for no
purpose Of the sort. L never said or did
thing to give plausi bility to such
story, and there is no reason TO believe
that the Administration is dissatisfied
with Mr.. Eustis' handling Of the Waller
case. Neithor is there any foundation
for the statement that he contemplates
resignation.
"OtEicially, | know nothing whatever
of the " Waller case, but as | have been in
Paris. and have followed it closely in the
home and foreign press, L have kept up
with the feeling expressed In both coun-
tries, and also have a pretty accurate idea
OF the matter as it now stands. l received
a personal letter from En- bassador Eustis
this morning on my arrival iii Chicago,
in which he speaks of the Waller
case, and expresses satisfaction at
the progress of the negotiations.
Mr.. Waller's case has been as well looked
after as if he had been white man of the
highest position. Mr.. Eustis is u South
erner, and it has been charged that be-
cause Mr.. Waller is a negro that he has
been indifferent IN the matter. am sure
that nothing is further from the fact.
Some of the questions involved are very
delicate ones, but. in my opinion, the
final result viii reflect the utmost credit
upon Mr. Eustis and the Administration.
"In justice to Mr.. Eustis it should be
said that Notwithstanding the persistent
newspaper attacks upon him. both in
France and the l. nited States, he IS popu
lar both socially and personally, not only
with his own countrynen in France. but
with the French people themselves. My
relations with Mr.. Eustis are and have
been of the most cordial character, and
the statement that [ have any ambition
TO succeed him, or that | came over here
in the interest of such ambition, is false"

It is little wonder that Cuba wants
her independence. She is lavishly
blessed with natural riches, but she is
ground down by wicked misrule. If
the Cuban is lucky he may perhaps

hut he can take no part in public affairs,
while he is taxed to death and his rights
of citizenship are few indeed. If he
owns real estate he pays 80 per cent of
his income into Spain treasury box. 1t
costs him $15 per year to own an OK Or
a carriage, and he cannot engage in any
kind of business without buying official
permission. In addition to this Spain
has broken every pledge she has ever
made for Legislative representation,
schools or good roads.

RANCE VS.. BRAZIL:
Relations Very Much Strained
Over the French Guiana
aj%a NJ Boundary.
AN ARMED CONFLICT OCCURS.
Complications Likely. to Call
for the Interference OF
Uncle Sam.

WASHINGTON, July S.-The strained
relations between France and Brazil
over the French Guiana boundary ap-
pears to become more complicated daily.
The subject is analogous to the British
Venezuelan trouble. in which tho
United States has taken hand, and in
the opinion of officials here the French
contest with Brazil is rapidly assuming
an aggravated aspect, which may again
call for the attention Of the United
States, as the Monroe doctrine applies
to one no less than to the other. An
armed conflict has occurred in the dis
puted territory between French SOL
diers and Brazilian. The French gov
eminent has demanded redress, and
the Brazilian congress has passed
resolution couched in sharp language
calling for an explanation from France.
A cable report from Brazil states that
the government regards the subject as
so menacing that a strict censorship
has been established on all information
regarding it. The armed conflict has
merely
Brought to CrlsiS
the long contention over the French
Guiana boundary. Both countries
claim large tract OF territory extend.
ing north from the Amazon river, and
equal in extent to what is usually
designated on the map as French
Guiana. Each country regards the
occupation of this disputed territory as
unwarranted, and the fault of the re-
cent conflict cannot be placed. French
Guiana is used by France as convict
colony for the deportation Of the worst
classes from the French prisons AS
result the population is strange mix
ture of French, Arabians, Malayans,
Greeks and the riffraff Of Paris. They
are desperate and lawless class. A
few years ago one Of these adventures,
q Frenchman named Gros, attempted
to set up an independent country. He
established capital and called his
government "Independent Guiana"
France Will Hold 1t by Force.
Brazil was originally g Portuguese
colony, and Portugal insisted that it
extended up to the French Guiana
boundary now shown on the maps.
France claimed that her territory ran
down to the Amazon. In the treaty at
Utrecht the river Vincent Pinzeon was
fixed as the boundary. Portugal then
claimed that this river was the north
erly stream now marking the boundary,
while France claimed that it was the
stream near the Amazon, so that the
treaty left the dispute as far open as
ever. Since the recent armed conflict
French soldiers have crossed the
boundary and permanently estab-
ished themselves in the disputed ter.
ritory, with the purpose, it is believed.
Of holding it by force.
