THE PHILIPPINES.

The Paris correspondent of the Lon
don Morning Post says: at is expect
ed that q rupture of the peace negotia-
tons between the United States and
Spain will be officially announced Fri
day."
The Berlin correspondent of the
Standard says: Russia and another
power are credited with the intention
of ntimating to Washington that the
annexation of the Philippines must be
preceded By common agreement on
future action in certain circumstances.
The German papers express their feel
iogs very frankly. The Hamburgische
Correspondent says; The American
demand is less blow to Spain than
to the European powers which seem
DESTROYS of selecting naval stations in
the Philippines
The st. Petersburg Noyosti. CON-
mentDg upon the United States deter
mination to claim the Philippines, says:
THE great powers can, like Spain,
protest against the proposed cessioo, as
several of them are directly interested
in the maintenance of the status quo. In
an extreme case the question should be
arbitrated"
1t is said in Washington that Presi.
dent Mckinley and the cabinet have no
idea that Spain will refuse to consider
the demand made by the commission
ers on Monday and break of further
negotiations. The President believes
that the Spaniards will make counter.
propositions that will demand consider
alton. A close friend Of the President
says that it is expected by the admins
tration that Spain will willingly part
with the Philippines for monetary
consideration, which sum will be a
large one, and the whole question is
therefore practically resolved into this:
How much are the islands worth to u?
If we cannot acquire them as we did
Porto Rico, without paying, do we want
them at all.

JUDGE MACKEY's Two WIVES
Judge Mackey, who is in the county
jail at Charlestown, W. Va, was visit
ed on Tuesday by Mrs. Mackey No. /,
of South Carolina, who was divorced on
statutory grounds in June, 1889. Her
maiden name was Rosalie Scott, and
she bore the judge four sons during
their matrimonial alliance. She is
domiciled at Harper's Ferry, and pays
the judge daily visits in his cell. Her
purpose, it is said, is to procure new
pail for him. She seems to have no
money, however, and thus far all her
efforts have proven unavailing. The
judge will appear before the grand jury
next week.
Mrs. Mackey, of New York, arrived
at Harper's Ferry Monday and stopped
at the Potomac House. She is sixty
years of age. The two wives are at The
Potomac House, and on quite friendly
terms. They drove to Charlestown to
see the judge.

his Offices has convinced him that this
negro policy is safe policy. He may
perhaps be partly undeceived by the
result in North Carolina as to the tenn
per Of the unboueht white element OF
the South. This is the issue in North
CaroIina-negro magistrates, negro
constables, negro legislators, negro IN
suits to the white women, negro tax
alton of the white people. The policy
of the President has given aid and COM
fort to the republicans who have fast
ened this vile yoke upon the people OF
North Carolina. His personal organs
at the national capital insist that the
attitude of the North Carolina people
is revolution. Perhaps it may be, but
in such case revolution is righteous

and help to crush this regime Of fraud,

NORTH CAROLINA POLITICS.

A dispatch from Raleigh says: The
situation in this State is daily growing
more grave. Fusionist speakers, who
started out with the intention of max
ing speeches against white supremacy,
have been frequently met at places
where they had appointments by deter
mined democrats, who intimated to
them that they had better pass on. ~
They invariably do 80. 1t is understood
that Senator Marion Butler is one of
this number, and, az a consequence, he
has retired to his home in Sampson
county until the close OF the exciting
campaign. He gives out that be is
disabled by cold and sore throat, and
would probably not speak any more
with the exception that he may fill two
more appointments.
A dispatch from Wilmington says:
"The political situation in this, the
storm center of North Cardinals re-.
markable campaign for white suprem-
acy, is practically unchanged, save that
q more intense excitement seems to per-
wade the city. There is dread of clash
between the races, despite the agree
ment existing between the governor
and the democratic leaders. This
change is due to continued rumors,
many of them having every semblance
of authoritativeness, that the negroes
will have candidates for at least part
of the county Offices, ddspite the wish
es of their white leaders. In fact, some
leading democrats believe that the ne.
groes are being secretly encouraged in
this movement by republicans who pro.
fess TO be striving to prevent ticket"

MUCH CONCERN OVER
 CAPTAIN CLARK'S ILLNESS
Although His Collapse May Not Be Permanent, Barker Is to Com
 mand the Oregon.

WASHINGTON, Aug. GA good deal of concern Is felt at the Navy Depart
 nent at the breakdown of Captain Clark of the Oregon. Not the slight est information has reached here of the nature of the captains illness; all that is known is that Commodore Watson, his immediate superior, ordered med ical board to examine him with the re- suit that he was condemned and or dered home. It does not follow from this that the captains collapse is per manent and his splendid physique and usually vigorous health afford general belief that he will regain his health in the north. Captain Barker, who was in command of the Newark, has been assigned to the command of the Ore gon In place of Captain Clark. The vacancy on the Newark has not been filled as yet. Captain Barker was one of the original of the Naval Board and in that capacity rendered valuable ser vice in preparing the navy for the ex- cellent work accomplished by it.
