A Washington dispatch says: Min
lister De Lome's complaints about the
failure of the United States to stop
dlibustering may help in bringing out
declaration of the Administration s
Cuban policy.
They indicate that there is no pos
sibility Of satisfying Spain by en-
forcing the neutrality laws as well as
can be done along 1000 miles of
coast. There would be less embar-
rassment if the insurgents were per-
mitted to send munitions on the same
terms as Spain may do. The pres
ent drift is decidedly towards recog-
nizlug belligerency, but it is only q
drift, not a positive indication of pol
icy.
President Mckinley has been told
by some leading members of Congress
that they will open fire if something
is not done. His disposition is to fol.
low the sentiment of Congress, moi
to take the initiative. Ultimately he
may get to the point OF Intervention,
but the most to be looked for now is
an intimation to Speaker Reed tina,
If the House wants to pass the bel.
ligerency resolution the Administra.
ton is willing.
1t is not likely that Mr.. Aldrich, OF
Chicago, will receive his appolntmen,
as Consul General at Havana until
Gen. Lee comes home in July on va
cation.

California experienced severe
earthquake shock on Sunday. At Gil
roy house walls were cracked, every
plate glass store window shattered and
there was general wreckage of bot.
ties and shelfware in houses and stores.
People rushed out of their homes in
terror. In some houses blinds were
wrenched from their hangings and an
unusual scene of petty destruction is
presented in nearly every house and
store in town.

A Canadian hit Mt Americans,

Ottawa, June 20.-The bill intro.
duced into the Dominion Parliament
by McMullen, one of the liberal men,
bers, to amend the law relating to
aliens, is even more drastic than was
supposed. The retaliationist element
in the House of Commons is ON the I'M
crease, and the milder form of the a
mendment has been altered to suit the
temper of the retaliationists. The a
mendment, which has reached the Sec
ond reading in the House, is as follows:
"No alien shall be qualified to &C.
quire or hold, either directly in his own
name, or indirectly through trustee,
or otherwise, any timber lands, or any
license to cut timber on public lands,
or any mining lands or mining rights
in Canada, or to be director of a min.
ing company"
This measure, when it becomes a
law, will affect an estimated investment
in Canada of over 100000, 900. Be-
tween alien labor bills, preferential
tariffs, export duties on saw logs, pulp
wood and ores, and the above measure,
retaliatory enactments aimed at the
United States are plentiful in the Can
adian Parliament this session.
