PRESIDENT WILL NOT BE JINGoEI

Washington. February 26.-A member
Of the cabinet, in speaking today of the
attitude of the President on the question
of war with Spain said:
president Mckinley is giving Thought
full and earnest consideration to every
phase of the Cuban situation as it appears
but he will not be jingoed into war or act
in anticipation of events which may never
occur He fully realizes what war means
and win not go to this last direful ex-
tremity without the approval of his con-
science and firm conviction that such a
course would be right in the sight of God
and man. But whenever the honor and
integrity Of the nation or its people be-
come involved, the President may be de-
pended upon to do his whole duty and do
it promptly"

mits not only the evidence taken, but
also gives its conclusions drawn from
the evidence. Under rule 726, when
courts are required to find facts there is
to be reported not only recital of evil
dence, but "also the results and conclu-
sions of the court from hearing the evil
dence' In this respect the findings are
much more exact and conclusive on
all issues of fact than the civil findings
of jury or of an inquest. Usually there
is a precept which specifies the exact
charges on which the court is to make
finding. In the present case, however
the precept sent by Admiral Sicard was
general in terms, simply directing tho
court to inquire into and report on the
circumstances attending the wreck of
the Maine. This gives the court wide
scope in prosecuting its inquiry.
In form the report will be in two parts,
first. the findings of facts and, second,
the opinion of the court. The findings
take up each material question of fact
involved and give the conclusion of the
court upon 1t. The opinion states what
sbou1d be done under each finding of fact
rbis opinion relates to the usual cases
in which officers are on trial, but in the
present case it would not, of course, ex-
tend to opinions on the government poll

are so unusual, involving the relation
of two governments, that the report may

THE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD.
The battleship Texas, which was the
flagship Of the naval demonstration
during the Peace Jubilee, left Phila-
delphia to-day for Tompkinsvi.le, New
York. She will then probably go to
the Brooklyn Navy Yard, to be placed
in drydock, so that her propeller may
be examined. as a result of its strik-
ing sunken log while she was COM
ing up the Delaware. She is under
command of Captain sigsbee, Commo-
dore Philip having left on the New
Orleans, which has since arrived in
New York. Pilot Charles S. Morris
navigated her down the river and bay.
Captain SlgsIbee thinks his vessel has
not sustained serious injuries.
with the departure Of the Texas all!
the war vessels which formed the dne
of the naval review have left their
stations. The Dolphin was the first to
leave, and she was followed by the
cruiser New Orleans and the May
flower, while the Columbia was towed
on Saturday to League Island. The
torpedo boat Winslow left her anchor
age and went through the Rarltan Ca
nal to New York.
The Gloucester left yesterday, and
late in the afternoon passed out at the
Delaware Brea1water, on her way to
New York, as did also the Marble
head. which is bound for Boston, to be
placed in drydock for an overhauling
The cruiser Topeka went yesterday TO
League Island, where she will probably
be laid up.
Ut is expected THAT the japanese
cruiser Kasagi and crew will leave her
anchorage. off Cramps yard to-mor-
row, for New York, where she is to re-
main week before leaving for New
Castle-on-the-ryne, England, to pro-
cure her guns. prior to her departure
for Japan. Two OF the Kasagi's officers
are still in the Pennsylvania Hos

thought that they win be detained
there for three weeks AT the end Of
that period they will take steamer
from New York, and join their cruiser

Patrick Neary, chairman OF the
Democratic County Executive Commit
tee, is regarded by men of all parties
as one OF the shrewdest, best informed
and most capaible politicians in New
Castle county. His PARTY has faith in
his power to make plans to effect or
ganizatlon and, by means OF such or
ganizatlon, to carry his plans into ef-
fective execution. Republicans fear his
ability because they have no one who
can successfully cope with him on
equal conditions; at the same time
they admire and trust him because,
in all Of his history, he has never
broken a promise entered into with
Republicans We challenge proof of
!. his bad faith. Such man needs no
defense against such lying statements
ais those which come from a local con-
temporary. He is pursuing the even
tenor OF his way, preparing his party

We are credibly informed that certain
officials of the Board OF Health have
been spending most of their time IN
working up the Republican registra-
ton to the neglect Of their official
duties which are at thls time so i'm
portant. Since the registration c.osed
the work of getting Republican voters
in line for November 8 has engrossed
their attention completely. Diph-
iberia may continue to spread, with
death accompanying it. Such calami-
ties weigh as nothing with Board Of
Health officials whose services areneed-
cd by the Republican managers. The
condition is shameful one which de-
serves stingdng rebuke at the hands
OF the voters Of this city.
