II believe Spain will resent our we'll
intended intervention. That, Of course,
will result in a conflict between the two

'"The course for this government to pur-
sue is TO recognize the independence OF
the Cubans, and then to follow that up
by such assistance as they may require

starving victims of her cruelty, then we
must feed them anyhow, and, If neces-

executed in every detail, and taken from
an oIl-painting done by f. N. Atwood In

TIE OHIO RISING RAPIDLY.
Cincinnati People Fe"r q FLOOD
Worse Than That OF "a.


Worse Than That OF 'S4.
CINCINNATI, o., March 26-To-nisht
the outlook for a great flood in the Ohio
river is disheartening. The river at noon
to-day passed the 55-foot mark here, 10
feet above the danger-line, and it Is still
rising rapidly. The appearance of light
rain this evening, which was transformed
tonight into a heavy rain, has filled pep
pie with the apprehension of flood worse
than the disastrous one of 1884. In Gin
cinnati the merchants are moving goods
from inundated cellars as rapidly as pos
sible. with the prospect of having to
remove them TO the second stories.
At 6 o'clock tonight the Ohio river
was rising at all points from Gallipolis
to Cairo. At 10 o'clock tonight it was
stationary at Gallipolis, but rising rapidly
at all points from Catlettsburg TO Cairo.
At Cincinnati at 10 o'clock it was Sc feet
and six-tenths of a foot, and still rising
one-tenth of foot hourly. This looks
very much as If 80 feet would be reached
by Monday.

SPANISH ABUSE OF MKINLEY.
spanish Column Attacked by Insur-
gents Loses Heavily.

HABANA, March 26.-El Diario de Ia
Marina. in an editorial article published
to-day. accuses President Mckinley Of
assimilation. The editorial compares
American doubAe-dealing" with Spanish
openness." and says: IF Mr.. Mckinley is
PLAYING double, he can only be compared
10 a deceitful scavenger"
The editorial concludes: "The United
States is always proud TO pierce the weak,
but lets herself be slapped by Germany"
Colonel Cruz Gonzales, commanding a
column acting in concert with General
Pando In the military movement In the
Province Of Puerto Principe, has been
attacked by insurgents, who surprised
the Spaniards. Out OF party of eighty
gueriIlas. about forty were killed or
wounded.
The political situation becomes more
rnuddled each day. Each man seems TO
have a candidate Of his own, while OF
marty discipline no trace is discernible.
