BELIEVE ThE MONROE
DOCTRINE is DEAD
what the EnEiish ThIak Of the Prtua..
pies Of the Monroe Doetriss In
Amsrles To-day.

New York, Aug. 3.--The London cor.
respondent OF The Tribune writing r.
der date Of July 20 says:
English writers on American affairs
assume that the Monroe doctrine, on be.
half Of which President Cleveland is
sued a challenge to England two years
ago, has been abandoned or compromised
by the United States government in the
present conflict with Spain. An e-.
preston which is constantly heard in
conversation and read in print is, "Mon.
roeism Ia dead"
The Monroe principle was that Eu.
ropeans must keep their hands of the
American continent, retaining their pos.
sessions according TO the status quo. but
not enlarging their colonial holdings
and conquests. The Monroe doctrine
will b. strengthened rather than in.
paired by the expulsion Of the Spaniarlis
from Cuba. Monroeism, instead OF
being killed on, u yitAlized and reinvig-
grated by the enlargement Of American
influence in the West Indies
What English writers on American
Affairs fail 20 perceive is the irrelavan
cy Of their own Interpretation Of the
Monroe doctrine. The principle "hands
of the American continent" Is empha.
sizing rather than minimized when Ha.
wall and the Spanish West Indies are
brought directly uuder the influence Of
the United States.
