The Spanish Kings Birthday.

Last Saturday, the 23rd inst, was
the birthday of King Alphon-o. the
young monarch of Spain, aud in the
spirit of rejoicing aud nerry-making,
the order was given to release certain
prisoners in Cuba. Thirteen were ac-
cordingly released, but none who were
incarcerated for any alleged crimes
against the government, such as being
in sympathy with the Cubaus. or
aiding or abt ting their cause. Many
persons, some of them Americans, are
confined in Spanish prisons, and it
was thought that some of them would
be released. If Spain really wants 10
end the disastrous war she certainly is
not going the tight way about it. The
King is too young To realize What j.
going on, and even if he did, it is not
possible that he would change things
very much. II is said that General
Weyler is even more severe and stiin-
gent in his dealing with "p aclficos, )"
or the farmers of Cuba. He tr, ats the
Cuban women with indignity and
abuse, and this action ON his part will
keep the war spirit alive in the insur-
gents breasts until one or the other
conquers. Warfare upon women and
helpless children does not serve to
place Weyler in even an ordinary po-
sition among modern generals; on the
contrary, it signalizes him as a
man devoid of the first rudiments of
humanity, booty in regimentals and
a disgrace to the name of soldier. One
act in honor of the Kings biri hday,
more than any other, would lie appre-
ciated by the entire civilized world,
and that would be the instantaneous
removal of Weyler, and the substitu-
ton Of man in his stead.

How Hanna Was Slated for the
Senate.

Cabinet talk is about the only thing
interesting in political circles these
days, and what makes the interest is
mostly the uncertainty and specula-
ton. Mckinley is extremely reticent
and tries to keep the affair a great
secret" The only known appointment
is that of Senator Sherman, who is to
fill the office of Secretary of State,
now occupied by Hon. Richard Olney.
OF course, this was all done for pur-
pose, and now there seems to be a
chance in five that the wishes of the
incoming administration may not meet
with that calm and unselfish resigna-
ton on the part of some individuals,
that was counted upon. The announce
ment of the selection of Senator Sher-
man, of Ohio, for the Secretary of
State portfolio, at the same time calls
attention to the fact that after March
4th there will be seat vacant in the
Senate. This is what Mckinley evil
IDENTIFY intended, and the strong and
desperate fight now being made for
that same seat by the very elegant and
worthy Marcus A. Hanna, late COM
mander-in,chief of McKinley's forces
in the last campaign, Capitalist and
Trust Mag ate, rivets the eyes to the
fact that it is the President elects de-
sire that the aforementioned parsonage
should occupy it. For no other reason
was the choice of Mr.. Sherman made
in advance without the others COM
pany. Hanna did not want cabinet
office, but prefers the more luxurious
accompaniment attendant upon the
dignity of a Senator. He can look af-
ter the patronage of his own and other
loyal States and at the same time put
in a few quiet but mighty strokes for
the trusts and capitalists, whose inter-
ests are so closely interviewer with his
own varied ones. He can assume
more power in the Senate than
anywhere else, and that is the reason
he prefers it to place in the executive
family. But he is not Senator vet.
Governor Bushnell may decline to APP
point him to the vacancy, and
then will come a royal tug of
war. 1t is said that Bushnell
and Foraker are opposed to Hanna,
in which case some rare and startling
developments are sure to be the out
come of the little matter. At any rate,
if Hanna succeeds in reaching the de-
sired goal, he can assure himself that it
was easier tomanage campaign involv-
ing the expenditure of millions to win
votes, than it will he for him to wear
with dignity and credit the man.
tie which decends to him from such
vener BILE and distinguished predeces-
sor as John Sherman.

The Peace Treaty and the Near
aqua Canal.

There has been great opposition en-
gendered in the Senate of the United
States against the "Arbitration Trea-
ty' proposed between this country
and England, on account of the latter's
enmity and connivance in the Near
aqua Canal project, which is now be-
fore Congress. Minister Rodriguez, of
the Central American Republic, re-
Gently presented letter to the Senate
Directing to many of the clauses of the
measure, Senator Morgan, who has
charge of the bill, made some caustic
remarks on the letter and incidentally
said that England was at the bottom
of the affair. He said that she offered
us the velvet glove of perpetual peace,
whilst underneath were the hawked
talons of diplomatic manipulation. The
matter will b. duly investigated and
upon the result hinges directly the ac-
ceptance or rejection of the peace treaty.
We hope that everything will come
out satisfactory and that nothing will
stand in the way of the conclusion of
the treaty.

That Promised Reform in Balti-
more.

The Democrats of the City of Balti-
more who voted for Mayor Hooper
and change of admins ration, with
the hope of securing what they claim
they wanted, genuine reform and civil
service reform, must feel very cheap
WHEN they see how things are conduct
ed in the City or Baltimore. Matters
not how worthy and efficient Demo-
crat may be he must give way to some
active Republican, and even in the
case of Republicans who have not been
partizanS, they must pack up and get
out in order to make room for some po-
litical rounder. Thus is reform and
civil service carried out in Baltimore.
Strange that men who should be ac-
quainted with the history of the Re
publican party should pin their faith
upon promises made by these gtntle-
men Just Def re elections. The entire
machi' cry of the State has been placed
in the hands of the r publican party
through Democrate who protested to
want reform. Well, they are no doubt
satisfied by this time-they have re-
form with vengeance.

ALTGELD CHARGES FRAUD
He Says that in Ohio Alone Over
$4,000 Illegal Votes Were
Counted at the Recent
Election.

Ex-Gov. John p. Altgeld was given
banquet by friends at the fremont
House, Chicago. last night. He made
a speech in which he charged whole
sale fraud at the late election. The ex-
Governor said in part:
"In Ohio there were nearly 200, 600
more votes counted in 1896 than there
were in 1892, which would indicate an
increase of population in that State
during four years of nearly 1000, 900
penple, whereas in reality there has not
been an increase of Il third of million
in that time. In other words, it is
clear that in Ohio over "a 600 fraudu-
lent votes were counted, and as the re-
turns show that Mr.. Mckinley had
only majority of 49,00O in that State
it is certain that Mr.. Bryan carried
Ohio by over 10000.
"Practically every legal vote was cast
in Illinois in 1892, yet in 1856 there
were 243, 900 more votes counted than
in 1892. During the whole history of
Illinois our population has not reached
100000. In ten years, from 1880 to
1890, during which our growth was
greatest, the population of the State in
creased only about 100000, yet accord
ing to the late election returns the pop
ulatiOn increased in four years, from
1892 to 1895, nearly 100000
This shows the monstrously frandu-
lent character of the whole proceeding
1t should be said that. notwithstanding
these fraudulent votes, Mckinley car
ried Illinois by only small majority
and not by,143 600 majority, as reported.
1t is certain that he did not carry Ohio
or Indiana or Kentucky or California,
and it is doubtful if he carried num-
Der of other States credited 10 him."

Big Fire in Philadelphia.

One of the most disastrous fires that
has occurred recently in Philadelphia,
started on Tues iay morning at O'Clock,
and before it could be brought under
control, the flames had destroyed over
$3,000,000 worth of property. John
Wannamaker's famous store was for a
time doomed, but the brave work Of
the firenlen kept the damage dow to
about 100000 Three other stores " ill
lose about 100000 dn stock, buildings
and machinery. The weather was bit
ter cold aud this hindered the fire de-
partment greatly in their work. At
one time the City Hall was in danger.
A great many of the firms whose places
of business were injured Ivy the fire,
were protected by Insurance. About
twenty business houses will suffer
greatly as result of the confiagration.
The flames started in the rear of the
grocery store of Hanscnm Brothers on
Market street and rapidly spread.
Great excitement was created through
out the city.
