IF it shall prove true that the Powers
have agreed to declare blocade of the
Piraeus and of other Greek ports the
declaration will be matter of concern
for this Government. We have a con-
siderable trade with Greece, though we
have none with Crete; and while the
blockade of the island is merely an af-
front to our sympathies, the blockade
of Greece would affect our material in
terests.
1t may be true that few or none of
our exports to or imports from Greece
are carried in American bottoms; yet
American cargoes are legally as invio-
liable from arrest and confscation
whether the American flag flies from the
masthead of the vessel which carries
them OF the flag of Great Britain, Italy or
even that of Greece floats over them.
There being no war between the Powers
and Greece, our merchants have as
much right TO ship their goods into or
out of the Piraeus as into or out of
Liverpool or Hamburg; and any at
tempt to hinder them in the exercise of
their just rights by a gross violation of
the principles of international law on
the part of the Powers would evoke a
protest from our Government which
would surely be needed.

SINCE TIE ret met of Mr.. Olney
and the co lseque su sidence OF the
jingoes in the nate and elsewhere,
says the Philadelphia Times, it is harder
than ever to make out what is going on
in Cuba. The reports that come from
Havana and Key West are as contra
dictory as ever, but are much less blood
thirsty, and for some reason they have
the general impression deepens that the
course of events forseen by the late adj
minislration is steadily and even rapidly
developing, and that the liberation of
Cuba is approaching, not through out
side interference, but through the in
ability of Spain to continue the contest
and maintain her hold upon the island.
1t is true that the recent official state
ment from Madrid, that the end of the
campaign was near, seemed intended to
convey the idea of Spanish victory, and
to-day We have from Havana report
of disaster 20 the insurgents, probably
entitled to about the same degree of
confidence usually given to Cuban news,
that is meant to be reassuring to Span
iards. Yet no well-informed person
believes that even the large force which
Spain now has in Cuba, weakened by
sickness, i'll success and most OF all by
arrears of payment, has now or in the
few remaining weeks of the present sea-
son is likely to have re-established
Spanish authority on the island. On
the contrary, the best information,
while it may indicate little substantial
progress toward the establishment of an
organized Cuban government, points
unmistakably to the continued failure
of the war of suppression and the time
cannot be far off when Spain must ac-
quiesce from mere exhaustion in the
surrender of the position she has striven
so fiercely to maintain.
What form may be given to the final
adjustment it is impossible to predict.
The opportunity is likely to come to the
United States to forward this ADJUST
ment, in the interest not only of Cuban
liberty, but of the peace and security of
the Western world, and that the present
administration will be equal to this
opportunity, as the last one would have
been, we do not doubt. But we can be
perfectly content to leave this delicate
duty to the constitutional authorities of
the country, and their task will be made
much easier if there be no renewal of
the senseleSs and mischievous political
agitation, whose only effect in the past
has been to prolong and intensity a
struggle that would probably have been
adjusted before now if we had tried to
make it easier instead of harder for
Spain to admit defeat

DEATH IN A TORNADO.
Many Persons Killed and In
jured In Oklahoma.
TOWN OF CHANDLER DESTROYED.
The Dead and Injured VIII Reach One
Hundred and Fifty Physicians All
Killed but tOne-Assistanse From Guth-
rie and Other Cities.

GUTHRIE, o. T, March 31.-A terrific
tornado. followed by hail and flood,
swept through the town of Chandler, 40
miles east of here, completely devas-
tating the town. Three fourths of the
residences and business houses of the
place were totally wrecked or badly
damaged. scores of people were injured
and many were killed.
Darkness at once came on, and the
work of rescue is carried. on under
greatest difficulties.
The telephone office was destroyed
and a telephone was connected with
the wire two miles away and a message
was sent here for assistance. Up to
that time Mr.. and Mrs. Woodman, Mrs
Henry Mitchell, Mrs. Thomas Smith,
Attorney John Dawson and two un-
known persons had been found dead
and fully $50 people were known to be
badly injured.
Mrs. Emery Foster and baby are
thought to be fatally hurt.
Chandler is a town of 800 people
1t is built on hill in thick timber and
the mass of torn trees and wrecked
houses makes it impossible to reach the
injured i'll the dark. On every side
can be heard groans and cries for help.
A large number of physicians and
other citizens have left here for the
scene with surgical instruments, drugs
and other supplies.
a later message states that a large
number of people known TO have been
in business buildings are missing and it
is feared they are under the ruins
Twenty one dead bodies have been
taken from the ruins at Chandler.
Seventy-five to a hundred persons are
badly injured and a dozen or more of
these are reported dying.
In addition to those dead, dying and
injured, it is believed that there are a
score or more of dead buried beneath
the wrecked buildings. Several of the
wrecked buildings have taken fire and
the debris is burning fiercely Many
of the injured have been burned to
death while pinned fast under the
debris.
In one building, it is reported, five
injured people were burned to death,
and at another place the incinerated
bodies of three unknown children have
been taken out.
All the physicians of the town save
one met death in the storm. Nearly all
the physicians of Guthrie have gone TO
the scene of disaster.

ceived here indicate that the cyclone

THE tariff debate goes on in the house
and will close this week with the ex-
pectstion that the bill will be sent to the
senate before Saturday. 1t is generally
recognized that the function of the
house in considering the measure is
merely of declamatory character, and
that it is in the senate the bill will have
to run the ordeal of thorough criticism.
The probabilities, however, are that ow-
ing to the close division of the senate,
few senators acting in concert by
holding up the bill, as Senator Quay did
the Wilson bill, will be able to give it
whatever shape they desire.
