Worcester morning daily spy., 1898-03-30

Opposition is reported in Washington
to the project of appropriating money
for the relief of the Cubans, unless the
appropriation is coupled with interven-
ton. The constitution says congress
shall have the power to lay and collect
taxes, duties imposts and excises, to
pay the debts and provide for the COM
mon defense and general welfare of
the United States" Clearly there is no
authority given by these words for
charity appropriation. Yet there are
instances in which such use of money
has been authorized bycongress. In case
the government should intervene in Gu
ba, it might be argued that the words
quoted give constructive warrant for
spending the public money to feed and
clothe the Cubans. Such services
would be but incidents in the general
plan of intervention and war. So far
as the appropriation might be consid-
cred merely eleemosynarysi 1t is obvious
ly true that more agonizing cry for
help has never been heard than that
which has come from Cuba.

The senate again broke silence, Tues
day, and Rawlins, Frye, Foraker and
BILLY" Mason went off on a good old
time, anti-Spanish, pro-Cuban "toot."
They had good time, and the galleries
enjoyed the show hugely. The senator's
who are best known for statesmanlike
qualities conspicuously refrained from
participation in the rampage. In the
house there were signs of rebellion
against the control Of the speaker
Even the populists and silverites, who
have lately been ominously silent on
the subject Of Cuba, were so deeply
stirred that they held meeting and
resolved that Cuba must be free. This
might be interpreted as an attempt to
discredit the republican sound-money
president. The proceedings of the SEN
ate will logically be interpreted as a
disapproval Of the presidents course,
and it is significant of an intention to
force the president to action before the
time in his judgment is ripe. The pro-
sion of sentiment, but the president will
indeed be man of iron nerve if he is
unmoved by these demonstrations.
What the effect will be in Spain, we
must wait to see. There seem to be so
many men on both sides who are crazy
for a SCRAP" that it is hard to see
how bloodshed can be averted.

The reduction and passing of April
bank dividends are cited as proof of the
superabundance Of capital the over-sup-
ply of the money market. 1t might also
be cited as Indication of the slacken-
ing Of general business, owing to the
war scare which has prevailed with
some intensity for more than a month
past The effects of the scare have be-
come more and more conspicuous as
the weeks have gone by, and Of late the
cancellations of orders have been un-
pleasantly numerous. The principal
ones who profit by war or war scares
are the industries engaged in making
war supplies, the Spectators and the
bankers who may be called on to fur
nish funds for carrying on a war. Up
to date, the last named class of benefl-
Charles has not had opportunity to par
ticipate in the gains. Business in gen
eral is sure to suffer, and it has suf-
fered

In the death of Anton Seidl, the musi-
cal community not only of America but
of the world sustains a great loss. Since
1885 he has been the leading figure in
musical circles of New York, and as the
successor of Leopold Damrosch he has
been the apostle of the Wagner music
drama in America. Yet it may be said
that he was disappointed man. Despite
his eminence, New York never gave the
great conductor the opportunity which
he deserved. He was better provided for
in opera, however, than in orchestral
music, for the Philharmonic orchestra
possessed neither the men nor the time
for rehearsal that are the indispensable
modern requirements Hence it came
about that Mr.. Seidl was ever searching
and working to bring about permanent
establishment which should give him the
cess of which he was certainly capable.
Unhappily he died just as his hope
seemed likely to be realized. The musi-
cal secretary of Wagner at Bayreuth
should have been able to accomplish
more than he did. Some significant de-
monstration of his ability was given in
the enthusiasm aroused by his perform
ances at Bayreuth and London, last
year, and by the offer of the position of
director Of the royal opera at Berlin and
at Hamburg. His intimate association
with Wagner gave him authoritative
knowledge of the masters intentions,
and furnished him with an equipment
scarcely excelled by that of any other
man. 1t was Seidl who conducted the
first performance in this country Of "Die
Meistersinger, Tristan und Isolde"
"seigfried," "Goetterdaemmerung," and
"Das Rheingold." and to him the Wag-
ner cult owes more than to any other
man in America.

What the new wire combination, just
incorporated under the laws of Illinois
can do in monopolizing the market and
fixing prices, when the biggest single
wire concern in the country is outside
the scheme, is a question. 1t is be-
heved at Worcester that the Washburn
& Moen Company will yet be brought
into the ring at it's own valuation which
was so high as to defeat the early effort
to combine all the chief wire plants OF
the country AS matters stand, a sea
son of severer competition than ever is
promised in the wire ndustry.-Spring-
field Republican.
One who is in a position to know about
this combination said some time ago
that it would not cause the Washburn
& Moen Company any great uneasiness
as. bysfar the greater bulk OF the business
Of the local concern consists of fine spe-
cialties requiring a high degree of skill,
Of which 1t has a substantial mo-
nopoly, and in the manufacture of which
