there came excuses for W., and they were
not claimed. Among the advocates of the
annexation of Cuba have been Presidents
jefferson, Monroe, John Quincy Adams,
jackson, Polk, Fillmore, Pierce and Buch-
anan, and il was not annexed.
Reviewing the whole period il seems q
historical truth that. so far from the Gu
ban policy of the United States having
been one of aggression few nations have
shown more good temper toward IA trou-
blesome ncighbor, more patience with
diplomatic relays or more self restraint
over coveted possession. Even slavery,
though IL could prevent, could not procure
annexation. The Cuban controversy has
not been sought by the United States. Il
arises out of the geographical and political
conditions of America As the French
orator said in 1893: II do not accuse the
king; do not accuse the nation; do not
accuse the people, | accuse the situa-
ton. Professor Albert Bushnell Hart in

AGUINALDo STANDS THE TEST.
Consul Wildman and Admiral Dewey
Praise His Work.

New York, June "a Hong Kong
dispatch says: The victory of Aguinal-
do, the Philippine insurgent leader, is a
victory for Consul Wildman. Wildman
has believed in him and from the first
has advocated giving him a fair trial.
Admiral Dewey consented more out Of
regard for Wildman than because he be-
lieved in Aguinaldo. Now Dewey writes
to Wildman: "Aguinaldo is behaving
splendidly. He is a born soldier"
Aguinaldo himself writes 10 Wildman:
Are you pleased with me? Have l kept
my word? OF the 1000 Spanish regu-
lars at Manila have killed and captured
1000, and the governors of Para. of Ca
vite, and Of Battan are my prisoners.

Manila, via Hong Kong, June o.
Since General Aguinaldo took command
OF the Philippine insurgents they have
made notable advances. During the
fortnight since he landed here General
Aguinaldo has assembled a force of 81
900 men with arms, and has fought
many skirmishes. Two good batteries
have been captured from the Span
iards, and the whole province Of Cavite
has been taken. Sixteen hundred Span
iards are prisoners. The insurgent
leader has supplied his men with 1000
rifles, Mausers from abroad, and 1000
magazine rifles and six field guns taken
from Spaniards.
Shutting on Food Supply.
The insurgents are investing Manila
closely, shutting off the food supply Of
the city with view to starving the
garrison into surrender. Food is still
fairly cheap and plentiful, but with the
railway cut and the rebels closing in |
supplies will soon stop. Admiral Dewey |
allows foreign residents to embark on |
steamers in the bay for safety. II is |
reported that the captain general has |
ordered the troops not TO attack the reb-
els, but to defend the outposts, and IL |
they are untenable TO retire on Manila.
The troops in Manila number 5000 ma

there are some 1000 Their health and
