AWAITING THE NEXT MOVE.

Grecians Very Anxious as to the Final
Action of the Powers.
ATHENS, March TO- -There is intense
anxiety here relative to the action the
powers will decide to adopt in the face
of the reply of the Greek government
to their demands for evacuation of
Crete by the Greek troops and the
withdrawal of the Greek feet from the
Cretan waters, Greece being willing to
give in as to the feet, but holding that
her troops should be allowed to remain
and be used by the powers to restore
order.
In any case, it is not believed here
that the proposed blockade of the Greek
coast will begin before the end of the
week.
It is reported that the Turkish min
lister has asked to be recalled, as he
fears his life is in danger.
DR.. Temple, archbishop Of Canter-
bury, has sent dispatch to the metro
fpolitan of Athens, in which he says
that the Established Church of Eng
land is praying earnestly to Almighty
God to give the Cretans liberty, justice
and peace.
The reserves continue to arrive from
the provinces and the greatest enthusi-
assn is displayed. The Greek reply to
the powers is generally approved.

BACKING DOWN EASY.

General Impression That Greece Will
Yield at the Proper Time.
LONDON, March 1O.-The general i'm
preston in competent quarters is that
Che powers will not accept the propos-
ais of Greece, and that they will carry
ont their threat of coercion, if neces-
sary. It is beloved, however, that the
Greek reply is only intended to soften
the shock of surrender to the excited
Hellenes, and that after brief pre-.
tense of opposition the government of
Greece will discover the futility of OPP
posing the will IF United Europe,
always supposing that Europe is united
in this matter, and compliance of
Greece will follow.

LONDON, March lott was learned
in official circles during the afternoon
that there is not the slightest chance
that the powers win tolerate the pres
.ence of Greek troops in Canea As
soon as the powers have had time to
exchange views on the SUBJECT, Greece
will be notified of the measures which
have been decided upon for the imme-
diate enforcement of their decision.
The negotiations will not last long, for
it is known that Germany and Russia
are pressing for immediate action.
In the house of commons Sir Will
lam Vernon Harcourt asked the gov
eminent for promise that the British
forces should not be used against
Greece before parliament had been
consulted. Mr.. Balfour, first lord of
the treasury, declined to pledge the
government to the course suggested by
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, but said
that the ministers wished parliament
to feel that they were acting with a
full sense of their responsibility and in
behalf of Cretan liberty and European
peace.
Sir Charles Dixie invited Mr.. Bal
four to agree to make statement on
Thursday next with respect to the
plans of the powers, in view of the ma.
ture of the Greek reply. To this Mr..
Balfour answered that he did not
think the negotiations would be far
enough advanced to make such state
ment practicable on Thursday.

COCHRAN ON BRYAN.

Bourke Cochran seems to have a per-
sonal grudge against William ]. Bryan.
He was in Boston the other day. when
he declared the Bryan movement was
an uprising against law. against order,
against justice, against morality.
against the restraint which civilization
has imposed upon each individual that
all individuals may prosper through
the enjoyment of the prosperity which
their industry might create"
More than 5000 600 American citizens
voted in favor Of Mr.. Bryan. Did they
vote against law. against order, against
justice, against morality? If they did.
if they were the anarchists and outlaws
that Bourke Cochran pictures them.
how is it that they accepted the result
of the election so cheerfuny, so pa
triotically? Is it the characteristic of
men who are engaged in an uprising
against law, against order, against JUS
tice, against morality to say I'VE have
submitted our case to the people and
the verdict is against US, and now, as
good citizens, it is our duty to accept
that verdict and abide by ito" If it
is, then it is entirely different from the
characteristics that have marked other
uprisings against law and order in
other times. Thirty-five years ago
there was an uprising in this country.
but it was not characterized by the
spirit that marked the uprising" Mr..
Cochran talks about
The truth of the matter is that the
charges Bourke Cochran makes against
Mr. Bryan and those who voted for
him are as false as false can be, and he
knows it. What he said against them
in Boston, nearly two months after the
election, shows him to be a blatherskite
and renegade Democrat through and
through. He has great ability, but he
perverts it to the basest uses like
demagogue as he is.

he made it the subject of his sermon.
Among other things he said: There
are important conclusions to be drawn
from the whole affair. One conclu-
sion is that New York City is entirely
different from what it was ten years
ago. Ten years ago such an action
on the part of the police would have
been utterly impossible. Ten years
ago the idea of raiding Sherry's would
have been beyond the dreams of the
highest powers of the police force; to-
day it is an accomplished fact. 1 also
want to state that New York City is
not the worst city in the world, and
give it as my deliberate opinion that
it is the cleanest city on this CONT
nent, without any exception. This
woman who appeared at Sherry's came
here by way of Chicago. and 1 want
to say again that New York is the
cleanest city on this continent and
that Chicago is the dirtiest." The So
ciety swells who We're at the dinner
did not come from Chicago. But how
the New York preacher shows his
pique at Chicago!

CADET LEES CASE.

A Washington correspondent says
Secretary Lamont will authorize the
superintendent of the military acad-
envy to give George Mason Lee, the
grandson of General Robert E. Lee,
another chance, but he will have to
drop back into the class Of 1901. 1t
would be impossible, and, as they say,
'prejudicial 10 the discipline of the
service" to permit him to continue in
the class of 1860, from which he has
just been dropped for deficiencies.
There is tremendous pressure from all
over the south in behalf of young Lee,
and a precedent has been found which
makes it almost imperative upon Sec
rotary Lamont TO take the course men
toned. Fred Grant was i'll during his
first year at the academy, and was al
lowed to drop back into the next class
and try it over again. He graduated,
although it took him five years to get
through. If this consideration was
shown for the son of General Grant,
it is argued that it might be shown
for the grandson of General Lee.
Young Lee is not a grandson of Gen
eraI Lee, but grand nephew When
he was found" at West Point there
were twenty-nine other cadets who
were also found" but his dismissal
has been made almost a national mat
ter. He has a distinguished father,
who won his distinction fighting in the
confederate army, and he comes of a
long line of distinguished ancestors.
This is his claim upon the indulgence
of the secretary of war; it seems to
have been sufficient to get him rein
stated. But what of the twenty nine
other young men who failed to pass
the examinations and were dismissed?
They do not seem to have been of such
distinguished lineage. but that should
not affect their rights.
If it is right to give young Lee an
other chance it is also right to give
the other young men who were dis
missed at the same time as he was
the same chance. 1t looks a little bit
as though politics was creeping into
the military academy. If it is, so much
the worse for the academy.

WILL woLcoTT sUccEEDp

The London Daily News. speaking
of Senator wolcott's mission to Eu-
rope, says that the bimetallists in the
house of commons are not disposed to
take active measures yet. 1t also states
that they are much interested in the
views of Sir Samuel Montague, a
banker and member of the house of
commons. His view is that this country
should first adopt bimetallism and
then offer a 10 per cent rebate in the
tariff to all the nations which follow
our EXAMPLE.
If the English bimetallists are not
yet ready to take action they may or
may not be induced by Senator Wolcott
to change their views. If they remain
obdurate, Senator Wolcotts mission, at
least so far as England is concerned,
will likely prove a failure. If the BIZ
metallists take lukewarm interest in
it, the monometallists will surely take
less interest in it.
Banker Montague's plan has this
merit: It suggests that this country
take the initiative in inaugurating a
free silver policy. That is the surest
way to start an international move
ment in favor of it; this we have al
ways believed. The tariff rebate is
hardly practicable. Even if it were it
would most probably conflict with the
most favored nation clause of many
existing treaties. What consideration
will Senator Wolcott give this Mon
tague plan?
1t is too early for him to have felt
the public pulse of either England or
any other country on the silver ques-
ton. IL he can bring a favorable re-
port from England he will have accom-
plished much indeed. If he brings back
a fairly favorable report it will be
found that the cause of free silver has
some of its most ardent enemies in
the congress OF the United States.

SPECIFIC DUTIES.

When the tariff comes up for revision
a great effort is going TO be made to
substitute specific for ad valorem du-
ties. This was made evident by the
tariff hearings. Thus a Mckinley or
gan says that not the least important
disclosure incident to the recent tariff
j hearings was the fact that the govern
ment has suffered an annual loss of
revenue amounting to $25,000,000 by the
undervaluations practiced under the
ad valorem system of the Wilson-Gor-
man law. This sum is equal to nearly
one-sixth of the total amount of Gus
| toms revenue collected during the ifs
/ cal year ended June 80, 1896. When
it is remembered that the bulk of the
/ goods struggled into this country by
means of undervaluations consist of
textiles and other goods subject to ad
valorem rates of duty under the claw
now in force, it will be seen that the
necessity for radical reforms in tariff
legislation is even more urgent than
has been represented by the most ram
pant prOtectionists.
The fact is. the paper continues, the
congressman had no adequate idea of
the magnitude of the fraudulent prac-
tees that had obtained among certain
classes of importers under this law.
The hearings developed the fact that
the interests of legitimate purchasers
and importers OF foreign dutiable goods
are Identical with those of American
manufacturers and producers. The
revenue and domestic manufacturers
of a large measure of the protection
to- which they are entitled, but these
underValuations also seriously injure
and demoralize the business of the i'm
porters. This is a revelation to most
men who have regarded themselves as
reasonably well posted on the tariff
question. The opinion has always pre-
vailed that the importers were free
traders as a matter of self interest.
If everything is as bad as here pic
tured, it is very bad indeed. This same
paper says that the most effective plan
will be to substitute specific for ad
valorem duties wherever practicable
Under the tariff law of 1890 there were
DOIA SpSC4HC anu du NdloAelI dutiSS.
Why was not very much said about
specific duties then? Probably be-
cause the articles upon which they
were laid bore all the burden they
could of that kind and the ad valorem
duties were then laid to get a little
more.
If the plan of specific duties is
adopted, it is to be hoped there will
be no additional ad valorem duties, so
that the people might know how much
they were paying by way of enhanced
price. Specific duties would be an indi-
vidual responsibility.
