M'KINLEY'S TASK.
GREATEST DIPLOMACY NEEDED IN
THE FOREIGN QUESTION.
Cuba Will be Touchy to Handle-The New
Tariff Bill Must Also Require Care
A Lesson For Germany.

Washington, March Probably
never before in American history has
an administration been obliged to face
at the very beginning of its assump-
ton of power,so many and important
questions, affecting foreign relations
of the United States, as confront
President Mckinley and his premier.
All these are important, and while
some of them may be kept in the
back ground, others and those of ut
most gravity, are likely to force them
selves upon the attention of the new
administration in such persistent
manner, that they must be met
promptly.
The foremost and greatest question
of interest to the people of the Unit
ed States, because of the strife that
is being waged under their very eyes,
is the subject of our relations toward
Cuba. For over two years the insur-
rectiOn on the island has gone on and
from the confusion of reports that
reach the department of state, it is
not possible to accurately and surely
ascertain the exact conditions of this
struggle. 1t is understood to be the
policy of the new administration to
deal with this matter deliberately, and
not undertake to depart from the pol
icy with which it so far has been trea-
ted, until our more important internal
financial affairs are adjusted. But
the subject is of an explosive mature
and it is not safe TO predict that
through some overt and outrageous
act. among either the Spanish forces
or in the insurgent lines. the admins
tratiOn will not be forced to part from
its plans and direct attention at short
notice to this dangerous subject.
Hawaii will seek to induce President
Mckinley to negotiate a new annexa-
ton treaty with our mother country,
England. Our relations are so founded
on reasonable and mutual cOnsidera-
ton, that there is no ground for appre-
henSiOn but that diplomatic subjects
pressing for consideration will not
yield in the end to the usual methods
of treatment.
The enactment of a new tariff bill
may put a severe strain upon our re-
latiOns with some of the great Euro
pean powers. and first of all. with
Germany. 1t is understood to he the
intention of Congress to provide for
active retaliation upon nations that
have so unjustly barred American
meat products and cattle from their
markets, and among these Germany is
the chief offender.
Secretary Olney left to his success
sOr an unpleasant legacy, the negotia
tons looking to the abatement of re-
strictiye regulations which chOked the
life out of the American insurance
companies seeking to continue the
profitable business they had built up
with Germany. What Secretary
Sherman will do in this matter can
not be told

Down A Decision.

Down a Decision.
Natchitoches, La, March 5.-The Su-
preme court has handed down de-
cision of great importance to this city.
In 1895 an election was held to test the
sense of the people of this parish OH
the liquor question, and the result OF
the vote was dry" Licenses were not
issued during 1896, and citizens of this
community could not get drink ex-
cept through a doctors prescription
The law was vigorously enforced. In
October, 1896, the police jury, in com
pliance with a petition of citizens from
NatchitocheS, ordered an election for
the town to decide whether liquor
could be sold in the corporate limits
of the town. After January I, 1897,
the election was enjOined by several
citizens, but was held, nOtwithstand-
ing. \ set of commissioners appoint
ed by the people assembled at the
polls, with the result that the liquor
people won by handsome majority.
The case was carried to court, and
Judge Cullom decided that the injunc-
ton was illegal, and dissolved It on
the ground that the prohibitOry Ordi-
nance had been in full force for one
year, and that at the expiration of
that time it was time to test the queS-
ton again. The Supreme court has
upheld this view of the case. The
prOhibitiOnistS cOntended that as the
municipality of Natchitoches had gone
dry by a vote of the whole parish.

Not Two Aces But A King And Queen
OF Crime.

Chicago, March 5.-The county Jail
is sheltering the Son of New Jersey
millionaire manufacturer, and Mrs.
Mary L. HUT, who has lived for sew
eral years on Washington boulevard,
was locked up ut the Desplaines street
station.
Jas. WilmOre, Jr., is the son in the
case. He is held under two indict-
ments, one for felony in Cook county

warrant charging her with compiled
ty OH the felOniOuS charge against
Wilmore. who is also wanted by the
police of New York City for embeZ-
element from SweeZey X Son. of the
New York Produce exchange. The
crimes charged against Wilmore
We're committed in 1896, during which
time he secured $1,000 by means of
forged checks from two Chicago firms.
At that time WilmOre was employ
ed as bOOkkeeper for a commission
merchant on South Water street. The
investigation into Wilmore's doings
proved that his first trouble occurred
in Brooklyn, when he appropriated
$4,000 of the funds of the Brooklyn
Ferry company. WilmOre came to
Chicago about four years ago and for
some time was employed in the Claim
agents office of the Northern Pacific
railway. The discovery some time
ago that Wilmore was living under
an assumed name at the home of Mrs.
HUT and to whom he posed as J. w.
Raymond, aroused suspicion and an
invpS ion tion rnypaln1 his amhnzzl To-

New York, March "a special to
the Herald from Valparaiso, Chile,
says:
Beyond doubt when the Tardetik,
of Santiago, announced in it's columns
that it would make certain disclosures
showing a serious crisis in foreign re-
lationS of the government conditions
existed warranting such a statement,
but not TO the extent intimated.
The official announcement of the
government that amity provisions had
been made between Chile and her
neighbors. however, has not been Suf-
ficient to dispel the anxiety in the pub
lie mind. The press, rejecting this
feeling. has asked the government at
once TO make explicit and official ex-
plantations on all points liable TO cause
alarm in the country.
Active preparations for the elections
are going on, the government taking
all precautions TO prevent disorder.
These developments are of the most
importance to the allied Liberals

Large Movement of Settlers.

The first week in this month witnessed
the largest movement of settlers to North
Dakota known to the history Of that state
1t is doubtful if larger number of actual
settlers was ever before moved at one time
IN this country than the Great Northern
Railway took out of St: Paul on April @.
The train consisted of 152 cars of passen-
gers, household goods, farm implements.
etc., and was divided in five sections: The
total number of men, women and children
was 1867: They came from various states,
Indiana, Virginia and Missouri contribut-
ing more than any other. Many of them
are known as DunKards, or German Bap-
tist brethren, and went to join colonies pre-
yiously located in the Turtle Mountain and
Devils Lake regions of North Dakota, where
their brethren have been very successful.
Many of the newcomers will locate on gov
eminent land, of which millions of acres
still remain open to settlement. The Dun
kards are American born and English
speaking, an industrious farming class, and
have already proven themselves an i'm port
ant addition to the population of North Da-
kota. They have now along the Great
Northern Railway no less than seventeen
settlements in that state.
