Infamy Impossible.

Political gossip has ii that President
Mckinley will not raise his hand TO save
the hundreds of American citizens whom
WeyIer is deliberately starving to death
in Cuia OF that he will say word To stop
the murder Of the sick. wounded, physicians
and nurses in the Cuban military hospitals,
or to prevent the outrage, torture and
butchery Of Cuban women, girls and chill
dren, for at least veal to come.
1t is said that all these horrors and
atrocities, the foul records of which crowd
every consular report from Cuba, will be
kept in stock for ultimate Use in further
ance Of Republican partisan purposes.
There is, too, good reason for relieving
that the Administration knows the prote'-
tive tariff bill, if il should become Jaw, viii
not bring prosperity to anybody but the
trusts and monopolies, and that more bon d
ISSUES are in sight. The argument is that
the Cuban question might he sprung and
intervention declared just before the Con
gresstonaI elections Of 1898, and that such
a course might redeem the Administration
in the eyes Of the people and possibly save
the Republican party from the disa snous
defeat that now appears inevitable.
We have printed these reports. and
now comment upon them in a spirit of
hesitate on and doubt While circum-
stances, unhappny, seem to excise such
estimates Of governmental policy and p1r-
pose, the idea is too horrible to entertain
in the absence of the most damning evl-
dence
That any American President would sub
init to a continuation of the fiendish
crimes being perpetrsted daily within a
few hours sail of our coast for year, or
even for a month, when he has official
knowledge of them, and knows he could
stop them with word, on account of a
possible future partisan advantage, or on
any other account, is an idea too degrading
and infamous to be admitted as a posi-
. Sility, unless by unmistakahle proof one
were driven TO accept it.

WRONG TRAMPs THRAsHED.
Three Men Suspected OF an Assault
Severely Handled.

Hazelton, Pa, May 1O.-Three tramps
Saturday afternoon brutality assaulted Mrs.
Frazer, who resides with her father in a
lonely section, near White Haven All the
occupants of the house excepting Mrs,
Frazer had gone to White Haven, and when
the tramps stole upon the premises the
woman was at their mercy.
They asked her whether there was any
money or other valuables about the house,
and when she refused TO give any informa-
ton they struck her to the floor and as
sau.ted her in the most outrageous manner.
The tramps then ransacked the house and
ia one of the upper rooms on the upper
floor they found trunk which they broke
open and secured $500, besides other
valuables. They then made their escape,
leaving their victim lying in a helpless con-
dition on the floor.
When Mrs. FraZer's father returned he
saw what had occurred and Immediately
gave an alarm. In d shorttime alar ge posse
of citizens arrived from White Haven and
went in pursuit of the fiends The posse
was well armed and those who could not
secure gurs carried with them base ball bats
and other weapons.
After long search three tramps were
discovered IN the woods nearby and were
severely beaten, after which they Were
taken to White Haven and locked up.
Mrs Frazer appeared at the lookup
sometime afterward, but as she could not
identify any of them they were set at
liberty No clew to the perpetrators of the
deed has thus far been obtained.
