WANAM A.NEh NONE GoeAONs
"At the banquet OF the Business
iens league OF Philadelphia, says
he st. Louis Republic, ''ex-Postmaster
leneral WanAmaker is reported to
ave said that a new party in this
ountry is necessity. AS the founda-
ion Of this remar6, Mr.. Wanamaker
said to have called attention 10 the
allure of prosperity to follow the
sleetion Of Mckinley and to have re-
,erred TO the low state OF political re-
igion in the nation, brought about by
unscrupulous bosses.
Unusual significance must be at
tached to this expression OF disap-
pointment over the consequences Of
Republican victory and of severe criti-
cism Of conspicuous political methods,
because they proceed from Repubi-
can Of so much prominence. 1t cannot
be charged that Mr.. Wanamaker is
actuated by partisan animosity or that
1t would be interesting TO have Mr..
WanamAker develop his attitude more
fully. Let him disclose how far he is
willing to 90 in the formation Of a new
party and what shall be It's distinctive
principles and aims Let him disclose
more fully what are the methods, as
far ms he knows, that have reduced the
political religion OF the nation TO SC
low a standard.
The Postmaster General has been
a member OF vcry rich set OF Repub-
licans who are believed TO have sup
piled much of the means with which
the INSCRIPTIONS bosses to whom he
refers have corrupted the standard OF
political morality. These rich men in
the state Of PeRnsylvania have reaped
the fruits of sowing by finding them
selves SO completely In the powor oi
the machine they have built up that
they cannot break their bonds. Their
efforts to free their own state
from boss rule haze met with dismal
failure.
Mo- talk OF forming new party
- regenerate the nation is cheap and
Ineffective, The thing to do is TO ex
pose the evil whenever and in whatso
ever form IL may exist, and to use
any instrument that NAV be convenient
TO defeat .s Mr.. Wanamaker should
begin the work of regeneration il
himself and at home. Let him over
throw the bosses OF mis- own party by
joining with ali who are opposed t'
tnem. Let him prove his faith by hu
works iu the regeneration Of Pennsyl
vanis. With a repentant manufaetur
ers' club and a purified Pennsylvania
as faith offering, the country will b
disposed TO accept Mr.. Wanamaker'
profession Of political repentance an'
to join with him in the work Of elevat
ing political religion.

day by II. j. Morris, and United States
District Attorney William ii. White
conducted the prosecution. Three Wit
nesses, all shpmates. testified, the hear
ing lasting several hours. Before pro-
ceedines were begun the reporters pre-
sent were excluded from the room, the
District Attorney stating that published
account of the preliminary trial
would be hirdrance in securing jury,
who had not formed an opinion as to the
guilt or innocence of the prisoner. The
Witnesses being seafaring men, were held
until the trial. Three more witnesses
are on their way here. who. with those

PLATT REMEMBERS.
Thus reminded. Mr.. Platt said he would
modify his statement There was a
meeting at which certain suggestions
were presented as to what was wanted.
but these were not assented to.
Mr. Foraker asserted that Mr.. Allison
had said that in case specific rates were
placed on third-class wool. the duties on
secured woods would be tripled
Mr. Penrose took part in the debate
to briefly state that the agreement which
the Senator from Ohio said existed could
not have been. as he and Mr.. Foraker
had been up until after midnight last
night trying to adjust differences.
Mr.. Foraker replied that the difference
last night was not on third-class wool,
but on another matter.
Mr.. Hale Republican, Of Maine. now
entered the debate as n peacemaker.
He suggested that the senators were not
so very far apart. and perhaps. with a
little time. all differences could be adj
justed and united action secured.
This appeared to meet with general
approval. and Mr.. Carter thereupon
asked that paragraphs $40 to $40. in
elusive covering carpet-wools. go over.
Mr.. Allison assented, and it seemed as
though the storm had passed.
Mr. Vest. of Missouri. and Mr.. Teller.
Of Colorado. however objected TO post
ponement.
Mr. Mantle asserted that the bill was
full of loopholes and snares for the
unwary. Mr. Allison then offered an
amendment reducing secured wool of the
third-class. TO pay three times the duty
of unsecured wool of that class. After
q rather extended debate. the amend
ment was adopted. When paragraph
357. relating to the rate on third-class
woods. was reached. the bill was laid
aside.
A joint resolution was agreed TO. APP
propriating 100000 for the immediate re-
pair of Dry-Dock No. 3, at the New YORK
navy-yard.
At $40 y. NJ. the Senate held an eXecu-

CABINET TALK OF YESTERDAY.
Hawaii and AnnexntiOn-Thc Japn-
nese PrOtcst-Cuba.


WASHINGTON. June 22.-The Cabinet
talked for fully two hours to-day, most
of the time on questions OF foreign
policy. but without deciding upon any par
ticular changes in the lines of action
already laid down. Hawaii and annexa-
ton were discussed at length, especially
the protest filed the other day by the
Japanese Minister against the pending
annexation treaty. The protest is not
given very much weight by the admins
tration, for the reason that in the es-
timation of the Cabinet it is based upon
a instrumentation of the terms of the
treaty, and of the results that would
follow the substitution of the laws OF
the United States for the Hawaiian laws
and the treaties. For instance, II was
shown that so far as the protest is based
upon a fear that the status OF the ia
panese now living in Hawaii would be
affected is not sound, for their position
in rse of annexation would be similar
to that of the japanese living IN the
United States. who are eligible to citi-
zenship and who have no complaint
against their treatment by the United
states. The other matters of protest In
tho opinion of the Cabinet, were equally
without foundation.
one thing that appeared positively was
that the administration does not now
entertain any expectation of getting ac-
ton on the treaty at this session OF CON
gress. hut has determined 10 arrange Tor
it's early consideration next December
AS for the Cuban talk. II appeared that
Mr.. Calhoun's report, though completed
by him this morning, was not iaid be-
fore the Cabinet so that the discussion
did not cover any new ground.

DEMAND FOR SMALL NOTES.
1t Means That Business Conditions
Are Improving.

WASHINGTON, June 22-The Trea-
sury Department within the last week
has received a considerable number OF
requests for small notes in unusually
large quantities This inquiry was en-
tirely unexpected, and is confidently re-
garded by Treasury officials as an indi-
cation of improving business conditions.
At least once year the Treasury meets
demands for small notes from the West
and South, where they are needed for
the movement OF the crops. Rarely, how
ever, has the inquiry begun earlier
than the 10th of July, and thus II Is as
sumed that the call for the notes of
small denominations is not in antlcipa-
ton of the crop movement. 1t has be-
come so general. however, particularly
in the South. that Treasury officials as
cribe il TO renewed activity in general
