A member OF the Finance Committee
OF the Johns Hopkins University trustees
tells the Baltimore Sun that the Univer-
sity holds 1900 shares Of first preferred
stock Of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company (Which has gone into the hands
OF a recever). the par value Of which is
81. 10000. and which has paid per cent.
annual interest. The University also
holds $50 shares Of the roads common
stock.
In 1891 the University exchanged most
Of its holdings OF common stock Cor the
preferred stock to the value of 100000
which has yielded annual dividends of &
per cent. This stock is q lien upon the
property. and as such has priority, not
only over the common stock. but also
over the mortgage bonds issued after the
preferred stock was issued.

The Hon. Patrick Walsh, OF Augusta,
Ga, has our thanks for pamphlet copy
Of his address 10 the Governors Of the
Southern States and the people of the South
In behalf of the Southern States Exposition
to be held In Chicago The public spirit
81 Chicago offers TO our people an OPP
portunity FOR the display of exhibits of
our products and resources. and pro-
vides the money and management there
for; our people being expected only to
furnish the exhibits. The exposition viii
begin in August, and will end In Novem-
Der.
This enterprise had its origin In a bust
ness-men's meeting at Augusta. when IL
was suggested that u Southern States
cotton exposition be held at Chicago
Though begun as a cotton exposition. the
scope OF the enterprise has been enlarged
to embrace specimens OF all the products
Of the Southern States.
In Mr.. WGlsh's address. which he makes
at the request Of convention held in
Chicago, he gives brief history OF the
undertaking: sets forth the advantages
} that the South might expect from such
display OF its products. and eloquently
appeals to our people to make the best
possible use of the opportunity here pre-
scented. Mr.. Walsh's work is we'll done.
His presentation Of facts is strong. and
his argument logical and vigorous.
Virginia Is not very much OF a cotton
growing or cotton Stata
and will not be able to make as imposing
showing at Chicago as some of her
southern sisters Will; but we hope to see
there some display Of Virginia products.
Meanwhile. Friend Walsh and his asso-
ciates have our good wishes. and may
command our best help whenever 1t can
be Servceabie TO them.

The Post may make itself easy on this
point. There will be no difficulty in finding

The Democratic presidential nomination
appears in different light to-day from

Those are the strong words used by
our contemporary. the Landmark, In con-
demnation OF the Legislature OF Virginia,
in refusing to permit the citizens of Rich
mond to decide whether or not they Will
make certain changes in their municipal
charter. The Nrginian thoroughly agrees

the Richmond matter, and II considers
that the terms Arbitrary and Inexusa-

MIR. WUITNEY,s POSITION.

In declaring, as he did, in his letter
which we reproduced In our last issue.
that he was not candidate for the
the Democratic nomination for President
Of the United States Mr.. Whitney said
not a word as TO whether he would ac-
cept such a nomination or not If 1t were
rendered to him. Mr.. Harrison occupies
the same relation to the Republican
nomination that MI. Whitney occupies to
the Democratic nomination. Neither can
he said to be q candidate, and both of
them have written letters defining their
positions, but neither OF them has said
that he would decline the nomination Of
a national convention. 1t is not in NOR
tai man TO decline such an honor unless
he Is satisfied that nomination Is all
that his party can offer to him.
Mr.. Whitney we believe TO be as far
from attempting to mislead the public
as any other of the gentlemen supposed
to be aspiraats rather than candidates.
In fact. his letter to the Clarion Ledger
is a model Of candor and good taste.
Whilst he does not therein declare that
he would not accept the nomination OF
a Democratic National Convention, he
defines his position on the silver ques-
ton so clearly that 1t is evident that he
would rather be right than President.
1t Is evident also that he is determined
that there shall be no doubt in anybody's
mind as to bow he stands affected to-
wards silver. The Democrats ir the Mis-
sippi Legislature came out boldly for the
free coinage of silver 16 to l, but Mr..
Whitney tells them plainly that they are
wrong on that point. and that he does
not believe in that theory Of finance.
II. therefore. the Democratic nomina-
ton for President should fall upon Mr..
Whitney it would not be because OF any
thing in his political life or history. but
because he has laid down a platform
upon which all the Democrats OF the
land could stand, and has opened the
way TO a reunited Democratic party. He
is determined that there shall be no
juggling so far as he is concerned.

THE uAncrLoyA AFFAIR.

The attack upon the United States Con-
sulate at Barcelona, Spain, Is not IN i'sei'
a serious matter. The demonstration was
clearly that of an irresponsible mob. ana
the Spanish authorities were prompt I"
do ali that could be expected OF them IN
the premises Not only were vigorous
steps taken TO protect the oonsuiate
arl JIsperse the mob, but through the
proper ofIlcia. channels the Spanish Gov
eminent has expressed regret at the &C.
currencc 10 both the American Minister
a, Madrid and Secretary Olney. and made
offer OF such reparation as the proprietles
require.
Such outbreaks as the barcelona
affair are not uncommon. and are not
confined to Spain. They have occurred
in nearly all countries--even in this-and
the Spanish Government pursued In the
present instance the usual. and what Is
generally accepted among nations as the
satisfactory course.
There Is no doubt, however. that the
feeling in Spain against this country &C.
casoned by the passage by the Senate OF
the Cunan Delllgcrtncy TcsOiutiohS ""'
not confined to the classes that so 10
make up mobs. Cuba Is a sore spot Win
Spain, and the irritant the Senate placed
upon that spot was felt and resented by
high and low alike. And now that the
House Of Representatives has by Its
action of yesterday gone bow-shot be-
yond the Senate in dealing with the Gu
ban question-has. in fact, declared for
Intervention, II necessary. to protect
American interests-it goes without saying
that excitement In Spain and animosity
there towards the United States will be
intensified.
In this light, therefore, and in view Of
the state of the American temper on the
Cuban question. the Barcelona affair may
prove, after all, the beginning Of grave
complications 1t may be followed by a
popular outbreak that will force the Span
| ish Government to some act or some ex-
preston that will call for serious notice
at the hands OF the United States.

$4,000 but Mrs Bauer decided to walt awhile before
