The calamity howlers are ex-
pected to keep up their cries until

tinuance, afterwards, will depend
in a great measure upon the result.
Hon. J. Taylor EllysOn has de
clared that he stands squarely on
the Chicago platform. He can
swallow all of it, but they are many
democrats in Virginia who will not
swallow him.
Next Saturday the democratic
convention will decide who are the
candidates for district Offices in the
Stonewall district. From present
indications, there will he a spirited
fight for all small Offices.
Ifthe Democr ats propose to run
the State canvass on National is
sues, they will lose many democratic
votes and their success will depend
upon their ability to hold the popu
lists.
The largest infants ever known
are the infant industries OF the

Two amateur prize fighters have
been killed by the blow over the
heart since the Corbett-Fit- immons
fight. Regularly trained men may
receive that blow with comparative
ly little injury, but it is very dan
gerous for the unframed to indulge
in amusements of that kind.
Three towns in West Virginia,

If any youth under Is is found up
on the street after the ringing of
the Court House bells, the parents
are to be fined five dollars for the
first eflense and twenty dollars for
each subsequent offence. The bell
will ring at 9 o'clock, between
April and Oct, 1, and the other
months OF the year at s O'c' Ock. How
those youngsters will long for sweet

If such an ordinance should be
enacted here, the fines would bank
rupt many of our citizens.
The alleged objects of the new
Tariff hill are to provide more
revenue and to encourage Ameri-
can industry. But the Baltimore
fruit packers hold that the proposed
increase Of 100 per cent in the duty
on pineapples would serve neither
end, but would break up their bust
ness in that line and divert the
canning trade to the Bahamas. This
is but one Of many instances in

TALKED CUBA and FINANCE
McKinley and Cabinet Are Satisfied
With SPANS Conduct.
FAR APART ON MONEY QUESTION
Az Many views Expressed as There
Were Members of the Adminis'rh-
ton Present at the Discussion.

Washington, November 19.--The cabinet
was in session for two hours today. de-
voted largely 10 discussion of annual
reports Of the differe1ts members. The
more important reports from the treasury,
war and navy departments have not yet
been made public and these were given
consideration at the session today.
The president also discussed various
features OF his message. The two subjects
which engaged the special attention Of the
cabinet were those relating to the manner
In which the Cuban problem and the ques-
ton OF the finances should be handled In
the presidents message.
The opinion was generally expressed that
the Cuban situation, os 1t aft cts the United
States. was even more favorable than could
be expected. The release Of the Competitor
prisoners and other concessions were ac-
cepted as a genuine desire on the part OF
the Sagasta administration to meet the
wishes of the authorities Of this country
and bring the war to hasty termination.
If there was any doubt expressed us to
SPANS maintenance of this line of policy
it was not made public; but there was no
dissent from the opinion that as long as
that country should continue in her course
of Cancellation there was nothing left for
the administration but to encourage It.
wide variety Of opinion was developed
among the members of the cabinet as to
the policy to be recommended on the fin
ancial question. There were indeed almost
as many views expressed on the details
involved in the discussion Of this question
as there were cabinet members present.
Their differences related. however, largely
to details and much of the conversation
turned on the probable difficulties Of get
ting congress TO unite on any line OF policy.
