CLAIMS AGAINST SPAIN.

A Washington dispatch says the State
Department has completed the preparation
of the claim against the Spanish govern
ment of $1500O0 indemnity for the imprison-
ment and death of DR.. Ruiz, and that it
will be placed in Minister Woodford's hands
for presentation as soon as he shall arrive
at Madrid. 1t may be that he will be
charged with the presentation of other
claims of a similar character. A few days
ago Senator Lodge made a report from the
committee on foreign relations authorizing
the President to take such measures as he
may deem necessary to obtain indemnity
from the Spanish government for the
wrongs and injuries suffered by August
Bolten and Gustave Richelieu two natur-
allied American citizens, by reason of their
wrongful arrest by Spanish authorities at
Santiago de Cuba, in the year 1895" The
resolution further authorizes the President
ito employ such means or exercise such
power as may be necessary. AS the cases
of these two American naturalized citizens
one a native of Sweden and the other of
France, have been before the Senate COM
no action has been taken by the govern
ment the Lodge report looks like an at
tempt to urge the administration to action
The men claim $4,000 damages each for
having been arrested while fishing and
thrown into Jail for no offense whatever
and without trial, though they both showed
American passports. During an imprison-
ment of several months both suffered great
injury to health, and one of them came
near dying of yellow fever. Their claim has
already been urged upon Spain through the
proper diplomatic channels, but has re-
ceived no attention. The Ruiz claim is a
new one, and is based on the investigation
recently made by the Presidents special
commissioner to Cuba, Mr.. Calhoun. It's
presentation at Madrid will be an event of
interest, and in connection with other
claims of a similar character may mark
the beginning of a more vigorous policy on
the part of this government towards Spain.

proved and increased by a change in the
head thereof, but it may not be able to
head off the publication at government ex-
pense of Dufields logarithms, authority
for which has already been granted. Ex-
perts say the printing of the book will cost
nearly $4,000 for one thousand copies. and
that 1t contains nothing that cannot be
found in books already published and that
can be purchased for moderate price at
any respectable book store. Moreover, those
who have examined the tables say they
contain material errors, so that, besides be-
ing costly and useless, the book, if pub
lished by the government. would bring dis
credit on American science. 1t is to be
hoped some way may be found of prevent
ing its publication and of dispensing with

more logarithms. anyhow What it needs

GENERAL DUFFIELD's LoGARITHMs.

If the reader whose eye falls upon this
article is not overcome by the heat he will
probably wonder who General Duffield is
and what his logarithms are. Gen. Duffield
is the incompetent person selected by
Logan Carlisle during the laN months of
the Cleveland administration as chief of
the United States coast and geodetic sur
vey and his logarithms are a series of
mathematical formulate by which he hopes
to make himself famous at the expense of
the United States governmert 5 an alleged
original discoverer. Most of Gen. Duffield's
time since his appointment has been given
to Gripping the efficiency of the bureau and
retarding it's work, and the intervals, when
not thus employed, have been devoted to
the preparation of these logarithms. His
official career is likely TO end soon, for a
commission of scientists has been appointed
to make an investigation of the United
States coast and geodetic survey with
view to ascertaining whether not the
practical results of the work of the bureau
cannot be improved and increased" This
commission will doubtless report that the
results of the work can be materially inn

THE ASIATIC UPSTART.


The protest of Japan against the annexa-
ton of Hawaii by the United States is no
tice to the world that in the future the lit
tie kingdom which, fifty years ago, wanted
to be let alone, proposes to be consulted in
regard to all affairs which affect the com
merce and the power of the nations in the
Pacific. Its real objection to the annexa-
ton of Hawaii by the United States is that
such possession would endanger 1.-The good
understanding of the powers which have
interests in the Pacific" Japan can see
such matters only from the point of inter-
national complications. Japan, having
beaten China, is filled with the war as well
as with the commercial spirit 1t has been
devoting itself to building up navy. 1t
is building and purchasing war ships. 1t
has more war ships in the Pacific than we
have, and it would take us some time to
bring our naval strength in those waters
to an equality 1t is because of this navy
and of the greater navy which it is build
ing that Japan is disposed to insist that it
is a power which must be consulted.
The danger in the situation is the inflated
huence. 1t is like small boy who after
logging much larger one, goes forth with
gun looking after trouble. 1t may as
sumo, after its defeat of China, that size is
not factor in modern warfare For that
danger the United States should be pre-
pared by sending every available war ship
to the Pacific. If the American people or
the Senate is of the opinion that the best
interests of the United States require the
annexation of Hawaii, no attention beyond
an explanation should be given to this
practically warlike threat of the Asiatic
upstart. The annexation of the Sandwich
Islands is no new idea with our govern
ment 1t has been discussed these fifty
years, and there is every reason to believe
that the older governments have expected
that sooner or later Hawaii would be an
nexed to the United States. But, whatever
is the determination of Congress relative
to annexation the new government Of Ja-
pan should be made to understand that it's
protest has not influenced the action of the
United States. Japan has already made
itself obnoxious by protesting against the
duties imposed by the proposed tariff. If
Japan were purchasing largely of American
merchandise such a protest might be ex-
cused, but as it purchases but little, while
we take large values in japanese goods, the
protest is an impertinence.
How much better it would have been if
the Senate had ratified the Harrison treaty
of annexation made during the last months
of that administration. Then there would
have been no Japan to protest. 1t has be-
come nation by conquering China, but it
has these warlike aspirations which the
older governments have not cultivated in

A WRONG THAT CANNOT BE
RIGHTED.

The case of William w. Kennedy fur
nishes remarkable instance of society do
ing gross injustice to an individual without
any possibility of PREPARATION The facts in
the case were fully set forth in yesterdays
Journal. Briefly, Kennedy was arrested in
Cincinnati in 1884 on a charge of murder
committed in Greensburg, Ind. His arrest
was made on vague suspicion. He came to
Indiana without requsition, was indicted,
tried, convicted and sentenced to prison
for life The evidence against him was
scarcely sufficient to justify an indictment,
and members of the grand jury admitted
afterwards that he ought not to have been
indicted. The evidence at the trial was er-
tirey circumstantial and of the most timsy
character. Under ordinary circumstances
it would not have convicted a tramp of
stealing apples, but at the time of Ken
nedys trial popular cIamor demanded a
victim and the lot fell on him. The court
and jury construed every point against him,
and because he could not prove his hlro-
cence beyond the possibility of a cuuht he
was convicted. From that time 10 the
present there has been a steadily growing
belief among all who nave given the SUD
ject any attention that kennedy was en-
tirely innocent of the crime with which he
was charged. This belief was largely due
to the persistent efforts of Kennedy's SIS
ter to secure her brothers pardon. These
efforts, extending through eleven years, fur
nish an instance of sisterly affection end
wOmanly adherence to a just cause than
which neither history nor fiction contains
anything finer. The young woman con-
WINGED everybody of her brothers innocence
except those who had the pardonlng power
Everybody admitted the justice OF her up
peal except the one official who could nlaho
it effective by the stroke OF pen Scores
of other convicts, rightly convicted of
crime, were pardoned by diffe cent Govern
ors, while Kennedy languished year after
year in prison. Once he was permitted to
go home on parole to see his slc1 Inotner
and returned to prison on time. he has
been a model prisoner. AT last he is to be
broken in spirit and health. He entered
prison mere boy, he will coLle cut of It
a middle-aged man in years and rrema-
turely old from confinement without
friends able to help him, and terribly han
dicapped in any effort he may make to earn
an honest livelihood. His whole adult life
thus far has been an object lesson of the
brutal injustice which the state may 90 a
citizen through the miscarriage of judicial
methods. OF the weary days and nights CT
his Imprisonment there has not been an
hour that was not a new injustice and d
cumulative wrong, and yet he cannot have
any claim against the State for com2lnsa-
tory damages or reparation of any kind.
He simply gets a pardon for a crime he
never committed. His case is one of the
wrongs that can never be rlgtted.
