Can Spain Intend to Assert the Right
of Search?

We are not inclined to credit the report
telegraphed from Madrid that the Spanish
Government, incenscd at the escape from
American ports of expeditions bearing
munitions of war to the Cuban revolutions
lists, has determined to enforce the right to
search suspected American vessels. Should
Spain do this, she would play directly into
the hands of those Americans who huve
long held it to be our duty to recognize the
Cubans AS belliGcrents.
The right of search is an incident of war,
and can only be enforced after the ISSUANCE
of n declaration that a state of public war
exists in Cuba, and that n blockade of the
island has been established. Heretofore,
the Madrid Government has carefully re-
Trained from making any such declaration.
1t has denied the existence of war in
Cuba, and has persisted in describing the
state of things which obtains there as mere
brigandagc. 1t has also avoided describing
in any diplomatic paper the inccssant pa
trolling of the Cuban coasts by cruisers
and gunboats as a blockade. She is en-
tirely alive to the fact that, by admitting
the existence of war or the institution of u
blockade, she would, by Ler own act, cstab-
'i1h nv btilIB'ltilCs VI llt NuihII9i hIh ~
recognition of il would follow as u matter
of course.
All the efforts of Senior DUPUY DE LONE
at Washington and of his Jealous cOadju-
tor in the Senate, Mr.. HALE, have been, for
upward of two years, directed against the
recognition Of Cuban bclliGcrcncy by the
United States. They are well aware how
much the Cubans would have to gain
through such a recognition, and through
the obligation thereby imposed on us to
observe u strict neutrality toward both
combatants. AT present the Cubans do not
exist for us at all in the eye of internationa
law. The moment, however, they were ac-
khowledgcd as belligcrcnts, We should
have to grant them precisely the same
rights and privileges which tuo Spaniards
have thus far exclusively enjoyed. They
would be able to send commissioners 10
foreign countries. like those which the
| Southern Confederacy sent to Europe; and

KING SUCCEEDS M.cuLLAeH.
Former Karsan Editor of the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat.


ST.. LOUIS, Jan. 25.-Capt. Henry
King, chief editorial writer of the pa
per, has been appointed to succeed the
late Joseph B. McCullagh as editor of
the ST. Louis G1obe-Democrat. Capt.
King had been in practical charge of
the paper for the last two years No
change will be made in the policy or
style of the paper. Capt Henry King
was born at Salem, o., in 1S41. His
parents later moved to Quincy,
Ill. Capt. King gained his first
knowledge of the newspaper bust
ness on the Quincy Wing, on
which paper he held successive
ly every position, from copy boy
to editorial writer. When the war
broke out Capt. King took the field as
an aide on the staff of Gen. Dodge, and
was afterward upon the staff of Gen.
Mcpherson. At the close of the war
Gov. Oglesby, of Illinois, appointed
him military agent of the state, with
the rank of colonel. In 1859 Capt.
King removed to Topeka Kan, and es-
tablished paper. In 1888 he was of
fered and accepted an editorial posi-
ton upon the st. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat.
