Clear and strong-A Forecast ofIt.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. Jan. 17,-'rhe
resolution drawn by Senator Davis and
adopted by the senate committe on
foreign relations. will prove to be q
clear and strong enunciatlon OF the
Monroe doctrine when its text Is made
public. II Is a more forceful declara:
tion than any that has been introduced
in Congress on this subject and Its
TERMS are so explicit that they cannot
be misunderstood The maintenance
OF the Monroe doctrine as set forth
in the resolution is held to be Vital to
the welfare of this country and the
countries Of the American continent.
The doctrine, Il Is asserted. Is now in
force and has been in force ever since
II was established by President Monroe.
The resolution declares II to mean that
the acquisition by purchase, aggression
orr otherwise of any territory on the
American continent by a foreign power
is mn unfriendly act, and such acqutsi-
tlon will not be permitted by the United
States.
The most important feature Is that
which touches upon n now phase OF the
Venezuelan question, the report that
England aud Venezuela may reach an
agreement. and that English money
viii settle the boundary dispute. The
resolution declares that In case boun-
Diary disputes on the American contl-
nent between foreign governments and
American governments are decided by
arbitration, agreement, purchase or in
any manner whateYer the United
States shall be the sole Judge as TO
IVhother tho Monroe doctrine has been
violated IN such arbitration or agree
ment. In fact 1t means that arbitra-
tion or agreement between foreign gov
ernments and governments on the
disputes cannot become binding or eff
fectIve unless sanctioned by the United
States, and that this government Is SAT-
lstiod that no part OF the American gov
ernment has been ccdcd to a foreign
power by such arbitration or agree
ment. This practically makes the
United States the arbitrator between
foreign governments and those OF the
American continent in all boundary
disputes

One ofthe members ofthe Distillers
combination said that there was very

during the few months following the

did aheavy export business, but when
industries became re-established in
France and Germany this fell off to
practically nothing and has never been
revived. He figures that no trade Of
this character can be developed unless
the costof manufacture here is reduced

OBJECT TO MRS. DIMMIck.
General Harrison's Children Opposed
to the Marriage.

A Washington dispatch says that
the intimate friends OF President
Harrson's family say that neither Mr..
and Mrs. Mckee nor Mr.. and Mrs.
Russell Harrison approve their fathers
coming marriage to Mrs. Dimmick,
because the latter is their mother s
niece, and that practical estrange-
ment now exists between them and
General Harrison on that account.
Not only do they not propose to con-
graduate him, but, according to these
friends, they do not propose to coun-
tenance him in what they regard as a
wrong to Mrs. Harrison's memory.
One of these Washington friends is
quoted as saying: Mrs. Mckee will
start early in the week for Indian
apolis for the purpose of collecting
every personal belonging from the
house that was once such truly hap
Ply home to her. This done, Mrs.
Mckee will not again cross the thresh-
hold Of her fathers Indianapolis resi-
dence unless in some unforeseen man
ner there is brought about a family
reconciliation. She has grieved over
the state OF affairs until she has been
fairly rendered i'll in consequence. =
General Harrison attributes his
daughters arrangement from him in
great measure, if not altogether, to
the influence of her husband, Mr.. Rob.
eTt Mckee; this the latter stoutlv de-
mics. Mr.. Mckee was in Washington
about week since and to his person
al friends spoke very openly of the
matter of the Presidents engage
ment. Mrs. Mckee and Mr.. Russell
Harrison as well have spoken to their
very intimate friends on the subject
They have been silent, they declare,
long enough: they mean to keep SO NO
longer. Their opposition to Their
father 5 engagement is not. they state,
due to the fact that he has intended tc
marry again, but that for his future
wife he has chosen Mrs. Dimmick.
who is their mothers niece, and who,
they say, has been antagonistic to

family.
