was finally settled and as some of those
few are very prominent and valuable
members, expulsion would cause much
unpleasantness al this late day, hence it
is feared that we will have TO wait until
those members die before union can be
effected 1t is a very delicate matter to
arrange satisfactorily all the details OF
the two societies.
While the majority of members wish
for union it remains still an open ques'
ton. Mrs. Snow who represented the
d. X. society at the opening oil the Cont
mental congress brought most cordial
greetings from them and was warmly
welcomed by this society. Two impor-
tant questions occupied considerable
time during the sessions of the congress.
The first was revision of the constitu-
ton, which subject was presented by
Mrs. Donald Mclean Of New York, and
the opposition was led by Mrs. J. Ellen
Walworth of Saratoga, charter men,
Der and former editor of the American
Monthly, who opposed a reunion with
such radical changes, while Mrs Mclean
with much lawyer-like ability, conciseness
and cearness boldly championed her side
Of the case, which attracted lawyers and
gentlemen to witness this legal debate
Mrs. McLean's father is Judge Richie
from near Fredericksburg, Nd, and an
able lawyer An amusing story is cur
rent here, that the Judge met small
boy on the street one morning and ac-
costed him with Good morning, little
boy, whose son are you" and he replied,
Judge Ritchie's' to his great surprise.
That is to prove that he has such a great
family of children that he found it hard
to recall them all by name and looks-a
good joke at his expense. Mrs. Mclean
and her mother, Mrs. Richie, are two
of the brightest women in the congress.
Another Washington woman of great
executive ability and great favorite is
Mrs. M. l.. Lockwood, the editor of the
American Monthly the organ of the D.
A. r. She has perhaps been connected
with 20 different societies and it is a
great mystery how she accompanies so
much literary and executive work. The
founder of the Travel club, which is held
at her house, she has been the president
OF the Woman Press club, delegate at
large to the Chicago Exposition, etc.
She is one OF the tour founders of this So
ciety who recently received a gold medal
from the congress of the d. A. X.

Maintaining Peace in Crete.

Whoever undertakes the work OF
maintaining order in Crete, whether
Italians, Austrians, French or Greeks,
is likely to find the task severe one,
in consequence OF the seml.barbarous
character Of the people, both Chris.
tan and Mosem. In order to prop
erly appreciate social conditions in
this island it must be remembered
that it is inhabited by race which,
in social development, occupies a
grade corresponding to that held by
the Scotch Highlanders of 800 OF 400
years ago, when each clan considered
itself warranted in raiding its neigh
bors' lands, stealing their cattle,
burning their houses and killing
those who offered opposition. In
Crete a broad divisional line is drawn
between the Christians and Moslems.
Both are of the same race stock, the
Moslems being the descendants OF
those Cretans who, 200 years ago,
after the conquest OF the island by
the Turks, renouuced Christianity
for the purpose OF lettering their
material condition. But at the pres
ent time. when, in consequence OF the
interference of the great powers, the
Christian insurgents are driven out
of location that they had occupied,
the Moslem Cretans raid the deserted
quarter, loot the houses Of the Chris
tians, ard set fire to them after de
spelling them of whatever goods they
can carry away. Contrariwise
when the Mohammedan Cretans ar,
abandoning one OF their villages
under the protection of the European
warships, the Christian CretanS
make raids upon them and seize and
take away such OF their property as
they can get their hands upon. 1t is
simply case OF common plundering
each side trying to get what it can
and, under such circumstances, public
order can only be maintained by q
system OF government which, besides
being perfectly fair as between Mo
hammedan and Christian, is also rig
orously enforced by the prompt anC
severe punishment OF any one violat
ing the law. The English have NOR,
experience in this sort OF work thar
any other nation, and, if the grea
powers could obtain the temporar,
service OF an administrator who hat
been through long schooling il
India, they could probably bring tn
island into a peaceable, and in thi
way habitable, condition much NOR
speedily than they are likely to unde
the ordinary conditions OF control.

rlust End the War at Once.

Crittenden Marriott, the Record
correspondent in Havana, declares
that General Weyler has received pos
tive orders from Madrid to end the
Cuban war at once, even by going
to the extent Of selling the island to
the insurgents, il need be, to accom-
pish that object. General Weyler,
therefore, has set out for Villa Clara
to find General Gomez and to under
take negotiations. Weyler himself
has said the war will end within
three weeks. General Weyler's orders
are, it is claimed, to secure peace at
anv terms, and he is instructed to
offer Gomez brides, autonomy, or the
island itself. Fear as to President
McKinleys position is given as a
leading cause for the Spanish change
Of policy.
This news confirms the statement
that Spain will be obliged before
summer to give up the fight she is
waging in Cuba. A foreign loan,
even if the Cortes authorized the
government to raise one, will be
failure. Leading banking houses in
Paris. Berlin and London have in
formed their correspondents here
that, after a careful examination Of
all the reports concerning Cuba, they
are not willing to lend another cent
to Spain. Furthermore, the Spanish
government cannot offer any secu-
rity, as all the revenues are already
pledged for the payment of the CAPT
tai and interest of the mortgage
bonds OF 1886 and 1890 amounting
to nearly $300.OOO,00O.
Another popular loan in Spain can
not possibly be realized, for the
country is completely exhausted and
impoverished. All who know the
real situation OF Spain see in the
oficlal announcement that the gov
eminent has funds only until next
summer the first declaration of
SPANS downfall.

no signs OF abating. The scourge in
Oaxaca has reached such proportions
that the people are in a panic. Hun

Tariff Expectations.

1t is stated that the trainers OF the
new tariff bill expect it to produce an
increase OF between $4,000, 600 and
$60,000,000 per annum in the rev.
enue. This estimate is based on the
assumption that business will show
about the same volume as in the
calendar year 1895, scale some
what higher than was alta ned in
the calendar year 1896, and distinctly
larger than has been reached so far
in 1897. 1t will be seen that the est-
mate calls for an improvement OF
trade, but it cannot be regarded
as at all unreasonable on that point,
as 1895, though making better
exhibit than has since been seen, was
itself anything but boom year.
The expected increase of the reve.
nue. is classified under the following
heads;
Sugar, $20,000,00O
Wool and woollens, $4,000, o0C
Flax and jute manufactures, 10000
Tobacco, 100000
China and glassware, 100000
Spirits, 100000
Cotton hosiery and other
cotton goods, 10000
In these FIVE leading classes an in
crease of $50, 100000 is looked for
to which the unenumerated article
will add several millions more. Or
this computation revenue rangin.
between $370.0o0,0o0 and 1915.

LOGAN AND ELKHoRN.
Both Go Over Their Banks and Do
Great Damage

Omaha, March 2O.-The general thaw
of the past week has started the ice in
the Logan and Elkhorn rivers and towns
along their banks have been threatened
with floods. but only two of any import
ance have been seriously damaged.
Fender, on the Logan river. is tonight
partly submerged and Norfolk. the sugar
beet factory city of Madison county, is
in several feet of water.
While the Missouri river is very high,
the danger point has not been reached
Indian creek, which runs through the
heart of the city of Council Bluffs rose
suddenly yesterday and hooded some OF
the streets.
At Norfolk, thousands of dollars worth
OF damage has been done. The El-horn
oVerfowed its banks last night and First,
Second and Third streets are rivers of
water only passable by boats. All the
business portion of the city is under from
three to SIX feet of water. The news

MULDooN's IDEAS.
Doesn't Believe Corbett and Fitz Will
Ever Meet Again.

Omaha, Neb., March 2O.-William
Muldoon, the famous trainer of pugi-
lists; William H. Recap. assistant edi-
tor of sports of the Philadelphia Led
ger; Jockey Flynn, Malachy Hogan
and other prominent sporting men,
were in Omaha today en- route east
from Carson.
1T is difficult to say whether or not
Fitzsimmons and Corbett will ever
meet again. said Muldooa, but I
doubt it, 1 think that Fitzsimmons
will now retire with a we'll earned
championship. 1t would be dangerous,
too, for him to train for another fight,
and if l had anything to say about it,
] would not permit it, because his
health would be undermined. 1t was
certainly a great contest and one that
the witnesses will never forget"
Mr.. Recap said that he was con-
WINGED that F'itzsimmons Won the fight
more from carelessness on Corbett's
part than from any superiority and he
said he believed that if the men were
to meet tomorrow that COrbett would
win. Mr.. Recap says that there was
no question in his mind but that Cor
bett was the better man of the two.

PURIrAN'S CONDITION.
Breakdown of the Boat on Her Maid
en- Voyage Is Being Thoroughly
Looked Into.

New York, March 2O-The court of
inquiry appointed to investigate the
alleged inefficiency of the engines,
boilers and auxiliary machinery of the
monitor Puritan continued its labors
today. Morning and afternoon sessions
were held behind closed doors.
The witnesses heard during the day
We're Captain Bartlett and Chief En-
gineer Cowie of the Puritan and Chief

sells machinery when she was or
dered to sea last February If any
one is to be censured by the court for
the breakdown of the vessel on her
maiden voyage the blame, it is eX-

officers.
The board of survey appointed to
examine her machinery and boilers
continued its labors today and will
probably appear before the court on
Tuesday.
