Aside from the laundering at the White
House it is becoming pretty evident that
there has been laundering at Madrid.
General Stewart l.. Woodford. like At
torney William r. Day. has been bam-
boozled by the astute Sagasta. The Span
ish premier has fed the New York lawyer
with sugar plums of flattery. Herkimer
county has been made much of at the
escurial. Republican simplicity has been
tfckled with the idea of dining with roy
atty and dancing with princesses of the
blood. The amiable ambassador could
not conceive that all these suaye. smooth
and smiling people were playing upon his
vanity and making him an instrument for
his country's undoing.
He took IL all in, like the yOkel beguiled
by the confidence man. He accepted the
pacific assurances of Sagasta as gospel
truth. He basked in the smiles of the re-
gent and believed her when she told hin,
that nothing could induce her to sanction
war with the United States In short. he
accepted gold bricks at the hands of the
Castillians with the childlike faith and
simplicity of Posey county farmer.
The result has been evident. The Adj
ministration, with whom the wish was
father to the thought, has eagerly accept
ed the assurances of WOodford that Spain
was certain to concede all our demands.

MEASUREMENTS of Doctors

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.)
Two doctors of international law in
Yale University have been diagnosing the
case of Cuba, and have arrived at di-
ametrically opposite views as to the right
E. j. Phelps, lecturer on international
law in the law department of the uni
versity, sets forth that I'VE are under
no necessity of self-defense against Spain
in any definition of the word; nor have
we any right to vindicate. or wrong to
redress. that entities us to interpose by
arms in support of the Cuban rebellion. :"
But Prof. Woolsey, professor of interna-
tional law in the same university. says
there are three justifying reasons for
intervention-for the attempt, by ma
tional action to heal this open sore; the
burden of neutrality, the dictates of our
commercial interests, the call of human
ity" He declares it TO be his deliberate
opinion that some form of Intervention
by our Government is near at hand, and
would be justifiable.
Prof. Woolsey has been for many years
regarded as an authority on international
law. and his opinions on the subject
have long carried weight. He reached
the conclusion given above after a Judi
cial consideration of all the circum-
stances. Prof. Phelps has less standing
as an expert, and none yet as an author
ity on the subject, and his conclusion
was deduced from a statement of the
case that had all the appearance of a
brief drawn up by the attorney for
Spain, which omitted the most important
facts and msstated the essential points
in the case.
1t ought not to be hard TO decide"
when such doctors disagree"
