Policeman Hester stated that while pa
trolling his beat It'll street northwest
Friday evening, he was approached by
Cole, who said he was on the verge of star
walton, and wanted to be sent to a
place where he could get something to eat.
Cole told Judge Kimball that he was
formerly in business in Richmond, Va,
and several months ago his property, with
it's contents, was destroyed by fire. His
only child was also burned to death. Later
his wife died. and being alone in the world
ard without any means of his own, he con-
Guided to come to Washington to look for
work.
His search here was in vain, and after
doing without food for several days he con-
Guided to surrender himself TO the officer,
and asked the judge 10 send him to the
wcrkhouse until he could hear from friends
in Richmond. Cole gave the court the
names of some prominent citizens of
Washington, how dead, who. he said were
relatives of his. He felt quite confident,
he said, that some of his friends in Rich
mond would come to his relief when in
formed of his straits, and Judge Kimball
accommodated him, as stated.

that the administration favors a
settlement of Cuban difficulties
that shall Secure to the people of
Cuba local autonomy, yet be hon
orable to Spain and its claim of
authority over its island depen-
dency." While this plan fore
stalls the probability of the formal
recognition of the insurgents, the
administration has made clear to
Spain that it will not stand by and
watch wholesale murder without
raising a formidable protest. Fur
thermore Secretary Sherman has
notified Spain that proper treat
ment of Americans who take no
part in war or politics is expected.
American citizens following law
ful business in a lawful way must
not be interfered with, and Ameri-
cans thrust into prison for supposed
connection with the insurgents
shall be treated with proper con
sideration.
While the law laid down by Sec
retary Sherman is not as exacting
and aggressive as many would
wish it is a marked improvement
to the Indifference of Cleveland
and Olney. 1t is diplomatic way
of dealing with delicate question
securing to Cubans and Americans
the practical benefits of formal re-
cOgnition without incurring the
danger of war with Spain which
formal recognition might precipi-
tate. Whether Spain will stand
the pressure is a problem yet to be
worked out.

Commissioner Akiyama's state
ment of his mission is concise and
not intended to stir up a warlike

the people here have reason for the

quence of the dignified and conser-
vation attitude thus far maintained
by the japanese government. The

M'KINLEY AND CUBA.

Notwithstanding President Nc
Kinley's Cuban policy has been
spoken of as an exact copy of that
followed by his predecessor, there
have been developments within re-
cent weeks which prove the pres
ent administration to be in favor
of fair play. The first instance in
which the American government
showed its hand was when the
Spanish captured the Cuban Gen
eral Rivera. When the report was
received that the Cuban would be
promptly put out of the way Pre-
sident Mckinley directed the Sec
retary of State to make a formal
protest to the Spanish government.
This course of action was finally
modified. The Secretary of State
requested a interview with the
Spanish Minister and communi-
Gated to him verbally the views of
the administration. As result of
this interview General Rivera has
received treatment more In accord
with the rules of modern warfare.

MIR. CLEVELAND In POLITICS.

4 speech delivered by ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland at the tenth annu-
al dinner of the Reform Club in
New York city has started the poll
ticaI tongues of the United States
wagging. The ex-President who
wassupposed to have settled quietly
In Princeton to enjoy his declining
years amid surroundings of peace
and prosperity has launched forth
at his earliest opportunity and is
again the subject of most bitter
criticism. Surrounded by his old
time satellites and hero worshipers,
Mr.. Cleveland rewarded his hear
ers by one of his peculiarly ORR
ginal TRADES upon the policy of the
Mckinley administration. He
starts out thrusting pointed para
graphs of sorrow and disgust at the
Bryanites, says that Mckinley has
been untrue to his trust and winds
up with his usual egotistical state
ment that Grover Cleveland is the
great II am" the Moses who will
lead the American people out of
the wilderness of industrial dis
tress.
McKinley's fault is summed up
in the statement that he was elec-
ted by the champions of sound
finance and Immediately he was
in Office he returned hot haste to
"wallowing in the wire of ex-
treme protection" Mr.. Cleveland
for the occasion evidently forgot
that his second election as presi-
dent was gained on a fight for rev.
enue tariff and one of his first Off
cials acts was to call an extra ses-
sion of Congress to repeal the Sher-
man silver purchase Act. Such
minor inconsistency however,
seems to count for -naught to the
massive intellect of the man who
will again pose as the stuffed
prophet"
The most significant feature of
the ex-President's discourse is
the fact that Mr.. Cleveland is still
In politics, that Notwithstanding his
two terms as chief executive, his
ambition is not satisfied and never
will be, that he still hopes to pose
as the leader of Democracy and
dictate the party policy. 1t is in
deed an interesting development
and will undoubtedly have more
or less influence in national poll
tics, resulting probably in more
general splitting up of the Demo
cratic party than exists today. The
silver Democrats, gold Demo
Gratis and Cleveland gold De
mocrats are now possibilities
of the future, with each fac
ton hating the other two most cor
daily. Mr.. Cleveland will prob
ably come out of the fight with
a sound political drubbing and the
future historian will speak of him
as man who didn't know when he
had had enough.
