IS WEAK IN THE KNEES. Senator SeWell on the Monroe Doctrine. Text of His Remarkable Reso-
 luton.
Does Not Believe Monroe Ever In- tended It to Be of General
 Application.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-The full text of Senator Sewell's resolution of fered yesterday on the Monroe doctrine is as follows:
 Resolved. that the Monroe doctrine as originally propounded, was directed to special prevention of threatened ac- tion of the allied powers in reference to the revolting colonies of Spain and the occupation by way of colonization of any supposed derelict territory on this hemisphere
 Second. that the question of resisting any acquisition of territory by con- quest was limited, as stated by MT. Webster, to cases in which by reason of proximity such acquisitions would be dangerous to our safety and to the in tegrity of our institutions.
 Third, that the true ground upon which the Monroe doctrine was based and upon which any similar position has been taken, rests for it's justifca- tion upon our interests and our inter ests only; that neither by the Monroe doctrine or any other official declara- tion have we ever come under any pledge to any power of estate on this continent that binds Us to act merely for their protection against invasion or encroachment by any other power.
 Fourth, that when a case arises in which any European power proposes tc acquire territory by invasion CT con- quest, it is for US to determine whether cur safety and integrity demaui Is that we shall resist such action Dy armed force if necessary.
 Fifth, that the executive has pressed the Monroe doctrine beyond what was contemplated at the time Of it's an- nounCement and the resultant sequence of the position thus taken seems to bt the ccmmittal of the gover nment to . prctectorate over Mexico aud the Cen. tral and South American states. tha this would be most unwise and danger ous and would violate the sound vel established policy that we should avoit all entangling alliances with foreign powers, whether they be European ol American.
 Sixth, that this action was prema ture, looking to the history of the con

OIL IN PHGNIK
To Be Used by a Local
 Railway.
The Project of Manager G. H.
 HonShelI.
Los Angeles Oil Is Cheaper thar Coal or Mesquite
 Wood.

For several years, even before the discovering of oil in Los Angeles, K- H. Wade, general manager of the Southern California railway, has been an enthusiast on the subject of oil- burning locomotives. That he was a true prophet has been proved by the results of the past two years. Not only the majority of the locomotives of the Santa Fe in California are equipped for oil, but the greater number of the manufacturing establishments of Los Angeles now use it for fuel The loco motives of the Southern California are models of efficiency and models of neatness and their running cost, under similar loads, has been reduced fully fifty per cent. The system is clean, as well, the familiar railway einder be- ing eliminated, much to the better ment of the comfort of the passenger and much to lessening of the paint bill in the passenger coach yard.
 With these benefits in view Manager Honshell of the Maricopa & Phoenix is now initiating a movement that means much to the railway and power producing interests of Phoenix.
 EiIS IuG 1NU D, d lOu- WAOC1Ol, uao been taken off the road and is now in the shops being oyerhauied, that oil may be substituted for coal as fuel A 900 gallon tank will be erected at. the railway yard, into which crude Los Angeles oil will be pumped from the tank cars in which it will be brought Each engine tender wilk hold at least 1000 gallons. A tremen- dous saving is expected in the fuel bill, as the oil now sells in Los Angeles for about 40 cents a barrel, and coal costs here about $7 a ton, and this, too at the aiding of the efficiency of the locomotives and the bettering of the comfort of the traveller.
 Manager Honshell, from his Los Angeles investigations, has become impressed with the belief that oi is the coming fuel of Phoenix, even cheaper than the Mexican gathered mesquite wood and more easily handled, and is now expending s1,500 in backing his judgment. 1g.'
