MANY old soldiers of central Illinois
signed petition and sent it to Presi-
dent Mckinley asking him to stop the
atrocities perpetrated by Spain in
Cuba under the guise of warfare,
peaceably or forcibly, as might be
necessary.
THE action of the senate in passing
the Morgan Cuban resolution was the
subject of discussion at the cabinet
meeting on the 21st and it was clearly
manifested that President Mckinley
had come to the determination to use
his powers to stop bloodshed in Cuba,
far it could be done without in
volving the United States in war.
PRESIDENT MCKINLEY has rendered
the wardenship of the Leavenworth
(kan.) penitentiary to c. c. James, of
jackson, o., and it has been accepted.
BY direction of the president, Secre-
tary of War Alger sent cable message
to Gen. Miles at Constantinople, in
structing him to be in London June Is
to represent the United States army at
Queen VictOria'S jubilee services.
CONSUL-GENERAL LEE has tele-
graphed to Washington that the num-
Der of Americans in Cuba needing relief
may reach 200.
THE federal supreme court decided
n case on the oath, holding that the
interstate commerce commission has
no power to prescribe rates on rail
roads which may control in the future.
The decision was construed to mean
that the interstate commerce commits
sion cannot pass upon rates before
theV put into effect
THE expected decision of the United
States supreme court in what is known
as the Nebraska maximum freight case
was not rendered on the oath, and, as
the court adjourned for the term, de-
cision cannot be announced before
next autumn
THE United States supreme court
handed down a decision in the case of
L. E. Parsons, late district attorney
for the Northern district of Alabama
who claimed that he was entitled to
hold his office for four years, notwith-
standing the presidents order of re-
moval- The decision was that while
the appointment was for four years. it
could be terminated earlier at the dis
erection of the president. The case was
of in terest to office-holders.
