WANTED A TEST CASE
Old Soldier With Wheels Who Thinks
He Has a Mission

Luke Talon. an old soldier, charged by
DR.. II. E. Hasse, the surgeon of the Sol
diers' home with insanity, was examined
yesterday by Judge Clark and Drs. Wills
and Brainerd. His ideas were found to be
incoherent. He claimed that the new gov
ernor of the home had made many vexa-
tious changes in the discipline, which he
had refused to obey, so as to secure test
case.
Among the irrational things by which
he has shown his dissatisfaction with Gov
ernor A. ]. Smiths regime is the writing
and placarding on the bulletin boards of
foolish and obscene letters. He believes
that the stand taken by him will be brought
to the attention of congress and the gov
ernment. Talon is a native of England.

The passage Of the Hawaiian resoIu-
ton by the senate was no surprise, as 1t
was known all along that ii would have
a clear majority. but the size Of the ma
Jority was larger than was expected.
The anal action. which VIII make the
Hawaiian Islands a part Of the United
States. and give thIs country an Inn
portant vantage point In the Pacific, Is
an act Of long delayed Justice. Recent
events have DEMONSTRATED the necessity
for the acqulrement Of the territory,
and brought about a withdrawal Of
much OF the oppodtlon which existed
previous to the war The large major
lty the resolution has received in
the senate and house Is a fair reflex Of
public opinion.
Senator EiklnA in his brief express
slons On the subject contained In a
Washington special In yesterdays In
telllgencer, takes a practical view Of
the necessity for the action at this time.
Congressman Dovener also tersely gives
a commOn-sense view Of II. Whatever
opposition has been urged, and what
ever may be said now against the an-
nexatlon of the islands, cannot onset
the necessity pointed out by the senator.
The great majority Of the people have
undoubtedly favored the course, as was
witnessed by the almost universal COM
domination of President clevelands
policy In hauling down the American
flag In Honolulu, and withdrawing
from the senate the annexation treaty,
which WAS popularly supported under
the administration Of President Harri-
SON.
The argument that this action Is but
a step in a general policy of Imperial
ism" IL arrant nonsense, and Is urged
for a purpose. The annexation Of Ha-
wall has been advocated by our leading
statesmen for more than half century.
and by statesmen whose careers would
belle any tendency toward imperialism
they might be accused OF President
Harrison. eight years ago. never had
such an accusation brought against him.
This argument In the Hawaiian matter
simply serves a purpose on the part of
the opponents. Time will vindlcate the

The awful tragedy at sea in witch
more than 800 lives were lost by the
sinking Of the French liner La Bour-
gogne was accompanied by scenes Of
terror ana death which were unprece-
dented, almost In the annals Of such
disasters, and 1t 10 a pity that every
cowardly wretch who added murder to
the ayful work of the collision, and I'M
merclSully slaughtered defenseless wo-
men and weaker men while struggling
for their lives was not spared to die
upon the gallows. OF to meet some worse
fate than drowning.
The crimes that were committed by
the foreigners in the steerage. who were,
for the most part, a low class OF Italians

horror to the disaster which a reading Of
the details can give but faint concep-
aon Of. II among the survivors of the

as was exhibited on,thIs occasion. The
conduct of the ignorant Italians. who
did not hesitate to use their knives on
women, right and left, to keep them

by them was nothing compared with
the brutality OF crew of vessel own

The General Situation.

The decisionlto send Watson and his
squadron to Spain at once. and the news
from Dewey to the effect that the Amer
lean troops have been landed, and are
comfortably quartered. are important
features Of the news this morning. Both
items relieve the public mind Of some
anxiety, and future developments in the
philippines and the demonstrations
against the Spanish coast will be await
ed with great interest as having import
ant bearings on theBeneral situation.
The feeling in this country and Eu-
rope. that the aggressive movements Of
the United States, and xhe succession OF
disheartenlng reverses ustained by
Spain are surely Fastening peace. Is
growing. The condition of the spaniards
at Santiago Is Of the most discouraging
nature, and the decisive blow to be de-
iivered there will bring matters to a
climax In spatn's domestic situation.
The persistent reports from London
from high sources that Spain will seek
peace negotiations within short time
are Of the deepest Significance, and
there is little doubt that developments
Of unusual importance In this connec-
tion are brewing.
The government Is not giving out its
plans with regard to the active opera
lions at Santiago. but achievements
and supplies will be hurried to the front.
1t viii depend upon the decision arrived
at by the navy and military command
ers at the scene when the final blow will
be delivered.
There Is everything in the general sit
uation to encourage hope for an early
peace movement on SPANS part. With
her rests the responsibility for a con-
tInuance Of the war.

1nconnectlon with President MoKinley's
proclamation setting apart the cunning
Sunday as day of Thanksgiving
throughout the country, for the success
of our soldiers and seamen in the war
for humanity, and OF prayer for the men
at the front, that they may be spared
from disease and suffering, and for the
speedy restoration of peace, It is sus-
Eested that, In this city, It would be an
opportune time In all places of worship
to make special collections for the Red
Cross Auxiliary Society, to be organized
Saturday.
The suggestion Is a good one, and
doubtless all OF the churches in the com
munlty will heartily unite in It's adop-
ton. The noble work in which the Red
Cross is engaged is known to all the
civilized world. The organization Of the
local branch Is for the purpose of con-
tributns aid to the work in the present
war.
