What Is Thought OF tho Son.Int.rfcronce
Tactics mt tho National Capital.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. The cable
dispatch from London showing n pur-
pose on tho part OF Great Britain, France
and Russia 10 interfere at the proper
stage OF hos,ililiea between Japan and
China has attracted attention in diplo.
matte circles hero, and has acquired
additional significance when taken in
conjunction with tho recent speech from
the throne OF Queen Victoria. BY tho
terms OF the understanding. rs reported,
Japan will not be permitted TO acquire
an inch OF territory on tho Chinese
mainland. This. OF course, would prevent
her from retaining Port Arthur or Wei
flai-"ol u, tho great Chinese naval
s%tronrholds, or any part OF Manchuria,
which she hos occupied attor hard fight
ing. But, on the other hand, it il DO.
lievcd hero that the statement carries n
distinct intimation that japan may
claim tho grca: island OF Formosa, which
is n most important strategic posses
sion. 1t has been confidently expected

intervene between Japan and China
whenever it should appear that the lat.
ter country was really vanquishod aud
was suinc in vain upon reasonable
terms, but so far rs the dispatch referred
to indicates any possibility OF action in
that line by the United States in con
junction with other powers, il is clearly
erroneous, for it can be positively stated
that under no conditions can the Pr1ai-
dent DO induced to dcpar. so far from
our established policy OF npn.in;ervcn-
ton. II Is no cauRo Of surprise horc
that Germany. too, will refrain from
joining in an intervention which would
be surely distUstoiul to Japan. for tho
latest reports from our consuls in tho
latter country show that the German
traders arc maxim. extraordinary pro.
grcssi in suprlantinc all other Foreigners,
even Americans, in securing control OF
the valuable Japanese foreign trade.

The Bond ELL Killed,

The administration bill to authorize
the issue Of $500, 900, 900 of gold bonds
was killed yesterday in the house OF
representatives. While this result was
not unexpected, owing to the widely
divergent views that existed among
members of Congress, it is a great dis.
appointment to those who had hoped
tina, the method OF relief proposed by
the President would be applied. unless
something botter could be devised in
the meantime. 1t now secms that the
country can have little hope Of the
present Congress doing anything in the
way OF financial legislation.
Under the circumstances there is
nothing left Tor the &C administration to do
but to negotiate another bond loan,
an alternative that was admitted from
the start, in the event OF the failure o:
tho bill. l, was stated yesterday that
Bankers Morgan and Belmont. OF New
York, who have been in a%shing,on
consulting with the treasury officials,
have made the President. on behalf OF
their London clients, an offer TO take
the whole 500, 1000 1000 at a high ratio OF
interest.
1t ia also stated. in this connection
that tho President hesi.atod to ncccpt

handed. Tho action OF Congress, how.
ever, lcavaa no other course open for

founded or not depends on the way you
look at it. The President himself is
quoted as expressing his faith thnt tho

government and its ability to perform
every obligation.

The course OF these gentlemen, who

deter the 1-NTEtLiGEScER from pursuing
the course i, believes to be best for the

The action Of the editor OF the INTEL.

while the speaker was humorsd in his

Tho house didn't care about it ono

are hurt. In the meantime, as is stated
above, the IxrELuiGEScEE will continue,
undisturbed, to fight the battles OF Re-
publicanism and protection, while tho
speaker will occupy the unique position
of a presiding officer going upon the
floor to ask for a vote of confidence in
himself.

Resolutions in Favor of Recognition
of Their BeIIigcrency.

by unanimous vote passed the following
resolutions:
Whereas, The Cubans are at present
engaged in a struggle to achieve their in
dependence against the minions of an alien
and tyrannical government and,
Whereas, The development of the contest
has made it obvious that the native forces
cannot possibly be subdued in any rea-
sonable time and a further continuation
of the present status will only tend to
deepen the general misery all over the
island of Cuba, ana,
Whereas, We, as the citizens of the fore
most republic in the world, should az
least be willing to see that all men fight
ing for the liberty of the land of their
nativity and their own deliverance from,
the bondage of an oppressor, should have
a fair and equal chance to meet their OPP
ponents in open warfare; therefore, be IL
Resolved, That the general assembly OF
the knights of Labor, representing every
section of the country, and all kinds of
humanity. does hereby declare in favor OF
the recognition Of the Cubans as belliger-
ents.
The constitution was SO amended as to
exclude gamblers, lawyers, bankers and
brokers as at present, and as also to eX-
clude all employees engaged in the manu-
facture of or dealers in intoxicating IL
quors, but permitting each local assem-
bly, to decide for itself whether it will
admit barkeepers, walters, etc, engaged
temporarily in the work Of dispensing IL
quors, but having no connection with the
