AN ERROR RECTIFIED.
Citizens Protest Successful Against
al Unjust Distinc tion.

The Senate subcommittee on the District
of Columbia appropriation bin yesterday
rectified the mistake made in connection
with the amendment regulating overhead
telephone and electric light wires beyond
the fire limits. For some mysterious rea-
son provision was made only for tele-
phone wires, and all reference TO electric
light wires was stricken out. This prom
ised to shut out all those persons who
wanted electric lights, bur who were not
connected with the company whose wires
are now up. Several influential citizens
protested to the committee about it. The
responsibility was laid upon the District
Commissioners
Yesterday afternoon the commissioners
wrote to the committee, denying this re-
sponsbility, and the committee then
agreed to accept an amendment that
would authorize the stringing of over
head electric light wires

THE SITUATION.

The Cuban situation has taken on new complications as a result of the senate's action. There was a strong feeling in the house against the recog- milton of Cuban independence when the question was before it for settle ment. Now the house is asked to ac- cept the senate resolution calling for recognition and for armed interven- tion. It is well known that the house was influenced by the attitude of the president in it's refusal to accord recog- hilton to the Cuban government. At this distance it is impossible to say whether the presidents influence in the house has waned. Fer our part We believe that the senate has needlessly prolonged the unsatisfactory condi- tions against which the country is re- belling. Either the house resolutions or those submitted by the senate com mittee on foreign relations would ac- complish the desired result if carried into effect. Armed intervention would follow in either case. Cuba would be rid of Spanish rule as a result of suc- cessful intervention. The United States is chiefly concerned in putting an end to Spanish government of the island. The fourth clause of the senate resolution expressly states that the United States disclaims any in- tention to exercise control over the island, except for the pacifcation thereof" and that it will leave the government and control of the island to it's people," What reason is there, then, for giving recognition now? The president in his message gave excel lent reasons for not recognizing the existing Cuban government. Those reasons are as strong today as they were a week ago. The senate has complicated matters needlessly. The present is time for wise counsels and we hope they will be in voked in Washington this day This is no time to split hairs. Once the Spaniards relinquish Cuba there will be time for recognition.

The names of the Morgan liners pur- chased by the government have very properly been changed, for they were altogether too suggestive of Spain: Fl Sud, Ell Norte, Fl Sol, and Fl Rio. By the way, Spain may be driven out of the western hemisphere, but her geo. graphical nomenclature will remain. It is about all, except her language, she has left in the western world now, but we meet it everywhere. South Amer ica is practically all Spanish in Ian guage and geographical designations, so is Central America, and even our own country is dotted with hundreds of Castilian names. From Louisiana westward to Los Angeles the remin- ders of Spanish sovereignty abound, and we shall never get rid of them. Perhaps it is Just as we'll. They give a picturesque touch to the whole south west.

The report has been circulated that enlistments for the navy are slow, and also one to the effect that at the ports where the vessels of the Key West and the flying squadrons have recently touched the capture of deserters is re- quiring an expenditure of considerable exertion and money. That both state ments are true in every respect is somewhat doubtful. But at least evi- dence has not been lacking for some time past that the navy was not popu- lar with men after they had once served for a time on a ship. Many men ran away from the vessels last fall when visits were made to some of the New England ports. No special reason was assigned for such a general hatred of discipline and the service, but it was announced that the conditions un- der which they had to live did not please them. In this emergency, so full of disagreeable possibilities, there should be some effort made to deter mine what the trouble is. The gov ernment should not be put to the harsh task of keeping really patriotic sai- lors under restraint. If the men in the navy are not properly devoted to the service or, in other words, to their country, they ought not to be on board any ship.

TWO DISTINCT POLICIES.

It is important to note that the two governments of the United States and Spain take almost opposite views as to the desirability of making secret prep arations for a possible conflict. The Spanish are not allowing everybody to know all that they are doing to equip their army and to fit out their ships Most of the information which reaches this country on this subject comes from France and England. On the other hand, the United States apparently wishes all the world to learn just what steps are being taken to put our troops, forts, cities and fleets in condition for struggle. AS there is scientific" element in Spain's policy, which will surely prove of more or less value if war suddenly breaks out, it is only fit ting that the United States should understand of what avail to the other being accomplished for an offensive or defensive war from this direction may be. The Spanish authorities will know all that they need to know about our preparedness for any sort of cam paign, on land and sea or on sea alone, and if they do not profit from it the fault will be their own So far only few army and naval officers in this country have expressed any anticipa- tions as to the American policy Of non-secrecY.

Already this has been exceeded by ten millions, and the end is not yet. Up to Tuesday the total receipts of gold by the eastern cities since February 25 were about $34,0O0,000, which, with the amount drawn from Australia by San Francisco, made a grand total of about SAG, 100000. So long as this condition of affairs continues and there is nothing to indicate that it will end in the near future-the nation will be able to meet without difficulty any con tingency that may arise, even to a pro- longed war, and without any fear whatever of being forced to suspend its specie payments for single day.

A POLICY WORTH STUDYING,

The British government is Just lay ing down the largest battleship afioat, the Imp1acable. This vessel, displac- ing 15,000 tons of water, will extend the length of armored fighting craft, which are for line service alone, to 400 feet. It will carry 1,50O tons of coal in its bunkers-the American ship Indiana has normal supply of only 400 tons-and will have 15,0OO indi- cated horse power. As this great fight ing machine is such a splendid ex- ample of the modern battleship. it may be believed that the American government will take the time to study its features carefully, especially be- cause the navy department is to be- gin the construction of some new ships of the same type in the immediate future. Our relations with England being friendly, 1t should not be i'm possible for commission from this slde or the, ocean to learn just what novel and yet safe details will be rep- resented in that specimen of naval architecture. The British govern ment is laying stress at present on the sort of battleship which can be depended on for unusual activity when In commission. It is seeking to strengthen it's naval power all round by acquiring 1ine-of-battle craft to be Kept in the most distant waters. As the coast line of this hemisphere is SC extensive it would not be bad policy for the United States to think of the same theory.

YOUNG STlRLlNG1 CONDITION
Attorney for j. Wesley Vernon to
Apply for a Writ Of Habeas
Corpus Today,

There is no change in the condition of

the effects of a fractured skull at Della
ware Hospital
The young man still lies in pre-
carious condition, and it may be three or
four days before the physicians will
be able to say whether OF no he will re-
cover.
J. Wesley Vernon, who threw the
wrench which caused Young Stirling's
injury on Fritay last, is still held with
out bail at the police station.
His attorney, William S. Hi|Ies, ex-
pected to make an application to the Su-
perior Court Yesterday for writ of
habeas corpus, but he informed the Court
shortly before o'clock in the afternoon
that the application was not ready.
As the matter could hardly be argued
before Wednesday, no time will be lost
He will apply to the court this
morning for the writ of habeas corpus,
and it may then be made returnable to-
morrow, SO that the question of admit
ting Mr.. Vernon to bail may be argued.
