WASHINGTON, June 32.-News was
received in Washington Of the at
tempted assassination, in Havana, Of
Capt Gsn. Blanco by Mariana Saliva,
a young member Of the volunteer
army, and ola condition Of affairs In
the. Cuban capital almost bordering
on revolution as consequence. The
volunteers parade the streets, unof'
ficered, crying, viva Weyler! Down
with Blancow The people, partic.
ularly the autonomists, are leav-
ing as fast as possible, and
Gen. Blanco, wounded as he is,
holds his daily conference with the
commanders OF the volunteers, who
apparently are powerless TO bring
about more peaceful state Of affairs
The attempted killing Of the Spanish
general was made as he was leaving
the palace, about to accompany some
of the officers Of his staff to inspect the
earthworks on the outskirts OF the
city. The young Cuban, who sent a
rifle bullet into Gen. Blanco's left leg
above the thigh, is q member Of the
volunteer guard on duty around the
palace. His younger brother also was
volunteer and was executed recently
on charge Of conspiracy with the
enemies Of Spain against the estab.
lishcd government, his sentence being
approved by Blanco.

NILSSON MEN ROUTED.
Ohio Republican Convention Controlled by
Friends Of the National Administra-
tiOn-PrOpOsed Resolutions.

COLUMBUS, O., June 22-The repub-
lican state convention was almost free
from the factional fighting Of former
years. After the senatorial contest Of
last winter the factions became known
as "the national administration men,
and "the state administration men. "
The former had the delegates from II
Of the congressional districts and the
other four districts were in dispute
owing to county contests The ma
tional administration republicans were
SO strong that the opposition was not
felt anywhere. The contest OF the
McKisson men came to nothing and in
every case was decided against the
McKisson delegates.
Gov. Bushnell occupied back seat
on the platform and many Of the
strongest Hanna men objected to any
resolutions regarding his administra.
ton or on the action Of the boiling re.
publicans In the legislature. There is
considerable favorable comment on
Congressman Grosvenor's keynote
speech" in which he said the Ameri.
can flag would remain in the West
Indies and Philippines and wherever
it was planted in warfare. The dele
gates favor the acquisition Of all the
islands thus acquired.

Mr.. cLEvELAND,s WARNING.
He Says Territorial ExpunsiOu Il Q Grave
Menace and Not In Keeping with
American Idsaa

PRINCETON. N. j., June 22.-Grover
Cleveland delivered the annual Found
ers' day address OF the commencement
exercises Of the Lawrenceville school
here yesterday. In the course Of his
remarks he said:
The American people are tempted every day
and every hour TO abandon their accustomed
way and enter upon course OF new and strange
adventure. Never before In our history have
we been beset with temptations so dangerous
as those which now whisper In our ears allur-
Ing words Of conquest and expansion and
points out to US fields bright In the glory OF
war You will probably be led by your retlec-
lions and studies to the conclusion that our gov
eminent was formed for the express purpose Of
creating In new world new nation, the foun-
datton OF which should be mans self-govern-
ment. whose safety and prosperity should be
to secure TO 1t absolute freedom from the old
world complications and In Its renunciations
OF all schemes OF foreign conquest and whose
mission should be the subsection OF civilization
and industrial occupation OF the vast domain
In which 1t has taken root II you are satisfied
that foreign conquest and unnatural extension
or annexation are dangerous perverslons OF
our national mission, and II 1t shall seem to
you In the light Of reason and history that such
perversions bring In their train o peoples de-
moralizatlon and decay Of popular content-
ment more surely destructive to the republic
than armies with banners you will not neces-
sarily be wrong
With our first century's tremendous growth
and advancement before your eyes as proof OF
the strength and efficiency OF consistent Amer
icanlsm you will find In the beginning Of our
second century proof OF the abundance OF our
present domain In millions Of acres Of govern
ment territory still unoccupied In view Of
these things and considering our achievements
In the past and our promise for the future, re-
calling what we have done and what we have
been and will yet remain for US to do under the
guidance and rules and motives which have
thus far governed our national life you surely
are entitled to demand the best Of reasons for
q change in our policy and conduct, and to ex-
pect conclusive explanation Of the conditions
which make our acquisition OF the new and
distant territory either justihable, prudent or
necessary
