UNCLE SANS DUTY.
London Spectator Declares America
Should Stop Cuban War.

The Spectator, published in London, ac-
cepting as fact the report that the United
States has admonished Spain, finds it diff
cult to think war can be averted, adding:
Apart from that pride and ignorance of
the consequences did Spain defy the
United States, war is probably considered
to be the best way out OF the difficulty.
Were the government to propose the
abandonment of Cuba in cold blood it would
simply mean handing over the country to
Don Carlos, so the government proposes to
employ America to do the necessary am
putation which alone will prevent the
Cuban gangrene from spreading to the
rest of the body polite.
"To prolong the war would be a crime,
and if America chooses to stop these
hideous cruelties all Englishmen should
applaud and refuse to inquire to narrowly
into the reason which influenced her
statesmen in putting pressure upon Spain.
Americas duty is to stop the long
agony in Cuba, and if her constitution does
not admit her doing so, the sooner she
amends her constitution so that she can
hold her new acquisition on a different
footing, the better for her and for human

One man was killed, three were fatally
injured and six were severely burned and
bruised by an explosion of gas in the Will

cumulated during the night near the
mouth of the main shaft. a shift of forty
five men went down in the cage at
O'Clock. They had proceeded only short
distance up the main gang way when the
lamp on the leaders cap ignited large
body of gas. A terrible explosion resulted.
Those who were able to crawl back to the
foot of the shaft signalled for the cage,
which had been blown to the surface by
the force of the explosion. Rescuers de-
scended and soon all the injured men were
raised to the surface. A fire damp followed
the explosion and put a stop to the search
for the body of the unknown miner. who

CLASH UNLOCKED FOR
SPAIN WILL ACCEPT UNCLE
SANS OFFER.
This Is the View Taken by the
authorities in Washington-There
Is Little Chance for a Rupture
Between the Two Countries.
No Trouble Looked For.

The possibility of a rupture between the
United States and Spain, growing out of
representations recently made to the
Spanish authorities by Minister Woodford,
Is regarded as very remote by the state
department officials. At the time Wood
ford's instructions were written it was the
opinion Of the administration officials that
the tender Of the good offices of the United
States would be rejected by Spain. Their
views have changed on this point. 1t is
SAID the authorities are now confidently
expecting Spain will accept the offer of
mediation in the same conciliatory spirit
IN which it is made, and express willing
ness to consider any suggestion which
this government may choose to make in
the direction of the restoration of peace in
the island Of Cuba.
Should Spain reject the offer of the
United States it then will be necessary for
the president to consider what will be the
further course of this government. The
statement from Madrid that he will make
an "ostentatious proclamation to the world
Of disapproval of the Cuban regime By
suspending diplomatic relations with
Spain and withdrawing the United States
minister" cannot be confirmed here, and 1t
is believed to be premature at least 4
member of the cabinet said the president
would not act hastily in any event, and that
the president will be guided by the action
OF congress.

Hold Up Northern Pacific Passenger
Crew in Minnesota.
The Northern Pacific passenger from
the east was held up and robbed al 2
O'Clock Sunday morning about three miles
east of Moorhead, MINI. The engine and
mail car came in alone and the engineer
reported that he had been compelled to
leave the rest of the train.
The robbery was the coolest piece of
criminal work in the history of the val
ley. Engineer Hooker, just after pulling
out of Glyndon, noticed masked man on
the front platform of the mail car. A few
moments later the man climbed over the
tender of the engine under cover of two
revolvers. He compelled the engineer to
stop the train, threatening to shoot if he
refused.
Several minutes afterward three other
masked men came tc the front end of the
train with Conductor Corcoran and 8
brakeman. All We're compelled to mount
the engine and Engineer Hooker was cS-
dered to open the throttle.
The men with revolvers sat on the end
of the tender and with the weapons lev
eled urged the engineer to increase the
speed. Not until the train reached Moor
head was it known to the crew that the
engine and mail car had been cut off from
the other section of the train. The hold
up was not profitable to the robbers. They
had evidently intended to take the ey-
press car, but did not cut deep enough
IN the train. When a stop was made to
secure the plunder the leader of the gang
discovered the mistake, and finding that
they had eft-the express car behind. the
robbers ordered the mail men ont of the
car and went through the mail.

out with revolver. He was proud man.
exceedingly reserved, rarely being known
to smile, and very ambitious. He was
subjected Thursday to a long examination
by Judge Flores, and at the conclusion Of
that ordeal, on his return to his room in
the prison, it was noted he showed great
detection and anguish of mind.
At II O'Clock Friday morning the
warden of the prison went to valQuez's
cell and discovered that the latter had
bullet wound in the right temple The
muzzle of the pistol had been placed so
close to the temple and pressed into the
skin that it practically made no noise on
being discharged. How the pistol reached
the prisoner is under investigation.
