The County Commissioners Give
Warning About the Tramps.

The taxpayers of Frederick County
will heartily appreciate any move on
the part of the Board of County Com
missioners to restrict the movement of
tramps to our Jail or alms-hOuse. In
the first place, the people of Frederick
County built Montevue as home for
the poor and unfortunate of the county.
1t was never intended to be a winter
resort for the hundreds of tramps, who
yearly seem to flock to this place. No
worthy case of charity need be turned
from the doors of Montevue; but whilst
we may be ready to feed the hungry
and assist those in distress, it is not
fair nor just to our people that we
should be expected to shelter and feed
hundreds I strangers who come here
to claim our assistance. The unfortu-
nate who are strong and hearty will
not hesitate to give few hours work
for the benefits they receive. We con-
Tess that we feel deep sympathy for
the hundreds of honest workmen who
are now forced to seek employment
from one end of the country to the
other; to this class everyone should
lend helping hand, but the profess
sional tramp should not be included in
this list. We are informed that the
superintendent at Montevue will have
plenty of work for all whe apply for
assistance at Montevue.

THERE is diversity of opinion as to
the recognition of the independence Of
Cuba by our Congress, and In the
minds Of many, it, at this time, means
trouble and more entanglements. Con-

want is honorable peace with all man.

THE business interests of the country

They are not looking for war or rumors

Peace and business security is what is

End OF the Trial of the New York
Broker at Warrington.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-The jury in
the trial of Elverton r. Chapman, the
member Of the New York stock broking
firm of Moore q Schley, who refused to
answer questions put by the senate
investigation committee, returned a
verdict of guilty at noon, after being
out all night. The case will un-
doubtedly be appealed to the court of
appeals Of the district of Columbia,
and thence to the United States su-
preme court, which ever way the next
highest tribunal decides. The defense
took numerous exceptions to the rulings
of Judge Cole in the course of the trial,
and these exceptions, including objec-
tions on constitutional grounds, will be
the basis Of the arguments on appeal.
The Chapman trial was regarded as a
test case and will be followed by the
trial Of Correspondent Edwards and
Shriver and Correspondent John w.
Mccartney of this city.

cereal exports. Reports from Balti-

Canadian Legislators Call One Another
Names.
OTTAWA, Ont. Jan. 20.-There was
a wild scene in the house of Commons
when Mr.. Kenny, one of the two Con-
servatives who represent Halifax, N.
S., accused Hon Wilfred Laurier of be-
ing an annexationist in disguise. The
debate was ON the speech from the
throne, and Mr.. Senny read from a
Boston paper what purported to be a
report of a speech delivered by MIR.
Laurier at a banquet held in Boston
some years ago. The report made Mr..
Laurier say that the time would come
when Canada must, III the course of
time. be separated from England. Mr..
Laurier, replying, said he had not been
correctly represented. Still, he be-
lieved that Canada was attaining the
rank of nation. The Conservatives
here broke into howls of dissent.
As Great a Country rs England.
Mr. Landerkn (Liberal) shouted
across the floor that Canada would
soon be as great country as England.
The Liberals responded with cheers.
Mr. Kenney then went on to say that
Mr.. Laurier had treacherously con-
spired to bring about annexation.
That is the most disgraceful state
ment ever made in British parlia-
ment," said Mr.. Laurier. Il call upon
the speaker to make the honorable
member retract his words"
Mr.. Kenney then retracted the eX.

products Of the temperate zone, and the
figures showing the import and export
trade Of the country for the first nine
months of 1895, which have been fur
nished to the state department by

healthy business there. The figures
show decrease of 81, ,92S, O35 in imports
and an increase Of $l2,636, 554 in ex.
ports, as compared with the preceding
year. The advance was specially no.
ticeable in exports Of live animals,

latter indicating steady development
Of the agricultural population in lines
other than the production of wheat.
Lumber and kerosene imports from the

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-When Con
zales de Quesada, the secretary of the
Cuban revolutionary party in the
United States, was informed of the in
tended appointment of General Pola-
vieja to replace Martinez de Campos,
he exclaimed with enthusiasm:
"Good, that is worth 10 battles to us.
This is considered as confession of
the fate OF the Spanish government in
Cuba, as General Campos was the first
military chief in Spain and also one of
the ablest politicians In this opinion
we are borne out by General Azcar.
raga, minister of war of Spain, who,
on Jan. Z. i'll denying the rumor of the
resignation of General Campos said,
The retirement of General Campos
will be the first national defeat before

vieja's appointment implies change OF
policy in the conducting of the wal

ish Territory Because of
Outrages.
The Movement Undertaken With
the Consent of All the
Powers

LONDON, Jan. 2O.-A dispatch to The
World from Boston says a naval officer
who has just returned from Washing.
ton says there is absolutely reliable au-
thority for the statement that the
administration has prepared plan of
campaign against Turkey to force the
government of that country to comply
with the demands of the United States
for indemnity for injuries to American
property and for the future protection
of American citizens within her domain.
The authorities do not deny this state
ment, though they have not hesitated
to say that no orders whatever have
been issued to the vessels of the navy
for carrying this order into effect. Upon
excellent authority it is stated that the
department of state recently entered
into correspondence with the foreign
powers, and that none of them will in
terfere.
Contemp ates Naval Demonstration.
1.-THE plan, as understand it, con-
templates a naval demonstration against
Turkey, and perha ps the occupation of
one of it's cities. 1t has in view the
concentration Of practically the entire
United States navy in Turkish waters.
The real reason why Rear Admiral
Bunce's feet has been held at Hampton
Roads instead Of sailing about Christ
mas time, as was the original intention,
is because the authorities have reconsid-
cred the dispatch of the feet to Turkish
waters. The Asiatic squadron has also
been considered, and there are some
officers at Washington who believe it is
on the way to the Mediterranean, as
the Asiatic station, usually 80 prolific
in movements, has not been heard of in
several weeks. The Newark, in South
Atlantic waters, is also talked of. The
United States would be able to make an
imposing demonstration against the
Turkish government, for the Turkish
navy could not act effectively against
it,"

No EquivocatiOn in the ResOlu-
tiOn Prepared by Senator
Davis.
Declares the United States Sole
Arbitrator of American Ter
ritorial Disputes.
Also That No Transfers Can Be
Made Without Uncle Sans
Consent.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O-The resolu-
ton drawn by Senator Davis and
adopted by the senate committee on
foreign relations will prove to be clear
and strong enunciation of the Monroe
doctrine when its text is made public.
It is more forceful doctrine than any
that has been introduced in congress on
this subject, and its terms are so ex-
plicit that they cannot be misunder-
stood. The maintenance of the Mon.
roe doctrine, as set forth in the resolu-
tion is held to be vital to the welfare
OF this country and the countries Of the
American continent. The doctrine, it
ia asserted, is now in force and has
been insforce ever since it was estab-
hshed by President Monroe The reso-
lutton declares it to mean that the &C.
khisition by purchase, aggression or
otherwise of any territory on the Amer
wican continent by foreign power is an
unfriendly act, and such acquisition
will not be permitted by the United
States.
The United States Sole Arbitrator.
= The most important feature is that
y1which touches upon a new phase of the
Venezuelan question; the report that
England and Venezuela may reach an
agreement, and that English money
will settle the boundary dispute The
resolution declares that in case bound
ary disputes on the American continent
between foreign governments and
Avporioop 70 l,~
arbitration, agreement, purchase. or in
any manner whatever, the United
States shall be the sole Judge as to
whether the Monroe doctrine has been
violated in such arbitration or agree
ment. In fact, it seems that arbitra-
ton or agreement between foreign gov.
ernments and governments on the
American continent as to boundary dis.
putes cannot become binding or effec-
tive unless sanctioned by the United
States, and that no part Of the Ameri-
can continent has been ceded to a for
eign power by such arbitration or
agreement. This practically makes the
United States the arbitrator between
foreign governments and those of the
American continent in all boundary
disputes.
Far-ReachinH In Its Effects.
This portion of the resolution is con-
sidered most important and far-reach-
ing in its effects. 1t caused misappre-
tensions among some members Of the
committee, as it is claimed that it may
lead to many entanglements. On the
other hand, the supporters Of the reso-
luton say that it leaves everything in
the hands of the United States where
the final decision should be, and that
the United States will interfere only
when the Monroe doctrine has been
violated.
The resolution is drawn with view
Of covering every possible contingency
that may arise in boundary disputes, or
the acquisition, or the sale of territory
by one foreign government to another,
on the American continent, or islands
that are considered part of the West
ern hemisphere.
