DOUBTLESS BE WILL RECONSIDER

New York, DEG. 22.--The World toda.
prints the following special dispatch
from Washington:
"The exclusive publication in the
World of Senator Woloott's threat to re
sign from the United States senate Great
| ed quite sensation in political circles.
"While many believe that his indigna
tion may sufficiently cool to prevent the
| actual relinq uishment of his seat, al
agree that his return to the advocacy Of
the free and unlimited coinage of silver is
certain
"Either President Mckinley and Score
tary Gage are at variance, or Senator
Wolcott and his sympathizers are utterly
deceived as to the presidents attitude.
Mr. Wolcott has, since his return from
Europe, talked long and earnestly with
the president and defends the president,
while taking position of open antag
onism to Score tary Gage.
"The assertion ID made by Mr.. Wolcott's
sympathizers that Secretary Gage mis-
represents the administration, and that,
if it were not for the political disturbance
it would cause, Mr.. Gage might retire
from the cabinet. This statement, which
is now made privately, is likely to be
made publicly before long.
"If this is true the issue will be raised
and the public will know the facts. The
result will probably be that Mr.. Wolcott
will find that he misunderstood the posi-
tion of the president and will then drs-
matically announce his indignation at the
administration"

RUSSIA ANTAaONIsTIo TO ENGLAND.
st. Petersburg, Dec. 52.--In strongly
anti-British article today the Novoesto
says:
'In consequence of the pretension of
England to compensate herself for the
Russian occupation of Port Arthur by the
aoq uisition of Port Hamilton or Lazareff,
and in view of the possibility of a dis
turbing action on the part of Japan,
Europe stands on the brink of grave
diplomatic com plications. 1t is there
fore well to recall that the reinforcement
OF the German squadron in the Pacific
permits Russia, France and Germany to
effectively prevent any disturbance 10 the
balance of power" The power exercised
between the three powers on one hand
and Great Britain and japan on the 9th
or is such as might be produced by the
violent seizures of territory.
The Novoesto expresses the hope that
the Isolation of Great Britain in regard
to the other Europea powers will "par
alize her action sufficiently to permit the
preservation of peace from dangers
threatening it the present moment"

time. The general is also quoted as
saying that if the Spanish government
persisted in autonomy Spain would lose
Cuba in a few months. In conclusion
Weyler said he wouid oppose tbU disso-
luton of the chamber until the govern
ment renowned its policy of giving Cuba
an autonomous form of government.
