Great Britain, by her intervention in
Egypt, province of turkey, which has
been carried on with armed force ever
since 1882, admits that the interests of a
state and its people are good grounds for
interference by one state in the internal
concerns of another state. The principle
grounds of her Intervention in and armed
occupation of Egypt are found in her in
ferests in the Suez Canal and in those of
her people in Egyptian bonds. The JUS
LITIGATION of the policy of Intervention
because of the interests of the interven
ing state and its people being thus found
In Great Britain's action as to Egypt it
only remains to point out the fact that
the interests of the United States and its
people require the cessation of the strug-
ole in Cuba, which is devastating the is
land, running its industries and destroy
ing its population. Trade with the is
land is at a practical standstill and
American property is involved in the
common ruin the war has brought to its
neoples This covers the second ground
IN WITCH the United States finds iustifi-
.refion for the character of interference
n Cuban affairs defined by Lawrence as
Intervention.

An effect of the Intervention of Great
Britain, France and Russia, on behalf of
The Greeks is that it estops them from OBJ
5soting to the intervention of the United
States on behalf Of the Cubars, even if
they were so inclined, while it will have
q restraining effect upon if it does not
estop Austria, Prussia, and other German
and European states, which, if they did
not formally approve of, certainly took
no steps to prevent the Intervention and
afterward acquiesed in the result.
There have been other and later in
instances of Intervention on the part of
the Great Powers: such as that in 1860,
when they interviewed to put stop to the
persecution and massacre of Christians
in the district of Mount Lebanon. OF
this act of Intervention by the Great
Powers, Lawrence says: "Their pro-
ceedings were worthy of commentator,
though they could not be brought within
the strict letter of the law"
y Lawrence lays down as a corollary of
the rules of international law relating to
Intervention 'sthat interventions in the
4 internal affairs of states are greater in
Engagements of their independence than
interference with their external action.
which must, from the nature of the case,
be concerned with other powers. Such
Intervention, therefore, should be
watched with the utmost jealousy, and
require the strongest reasons in order to
Justify them"

EXPRESS ROBBERY.

Ten Thousand Dollars Taken by a Trusted
EmPloye-HastIly Planned and Execut-
ed-Twenty-FIEe Thousand Dollars In the
safe Left Untouched, While Only Bonds
Were Taken. on Which Payment Has
Been Stopped.
NEW YORK, Jan. THE American
Express Co. was robbed yesterday of
S1O,5s2 and Clark Braden, Jr., trusted
employe, is missing.
Three days ago the night manager
in charge of the office at Forty-seventh
street and Madison avenue was taken
i'll, and Braden, a clerk of the COM
pany for more than ten wears, was
temporarily substituted.
This Office the company ses as
clearinghouse for all its m tier sent
or received from the Grand Central sta
ton.
Among the parcels to be sent on the
ESQ o'clock train on the Hudson river
road yesterday morning were several
containing cash to the amount of S.
$50 and one containing five 81, 900 Chi
cago Gas bonds. 1t was Braden's place
to take these packages to the train, re-
turn to the office and remain on duty
until seven o'clock.
When the day employees arrived
Braden was not in the Office. The safe
was locked. There were no receipts
for valuable packages by the morning
train, although the books showed that
several such parcels had been received
at the Office. At first the absence of
Braden and the receipts were set down
to carelessness. But a few minutes later
the leather bags which had contained
the packages were found under some
other freight. They had been cut
open and the money and bonds taken.
That the robbery was hastily car
ried out is shown by the fact that S25,-
600, mostly in cash, was lefti in the safe
and that the bonds were taken.
Notices were sent to every bank and
financial institution in the country,
warning them against purchasing the
stolen gas bonds. These bonds have a
face value of S.. 900. but are worth in
open markets So. $50. They are for
81 900 each, issued in 1896, and bearing
five per cent. interest They are num-
bered 1.6OS, 1,s27, 2,S59, 1000 and 4, 191.
Braden, about three years ago, left
the company's employ to go west, and
for time was fish dealer in Oregon.
Last summer he returned to New York.

ENGLAND ALERT
She Sees Advantages to be Gained Under
Reciprocity Treaties.

Reciprocity Treaties.
WASHINGTON, Jan. There is rea-
son to believe that Great Britain will
again take the lead of other nations in
the negotiation of reciprocity treaties
under the Dingley tariff act. While
other nations were lodging complain IS
against the terms of the act and of the
very limited advantages offered by the
reciprocity clauses, the British EN-
bassy here has been at work quietly
carrying on negotiations for a series of
treaties extending the benefits of SO
much reciprocity as may be obtained
under the act to the British possessions
in the West Indies.
Sir Julian Pauncefote has been at
the state department several times re-
Gently. Matters are advancing to
point where it is expected some Of
the officials of the British colonies will
be called into the consultations prior to
signing an agreement, as is customary
when British colonies are concerned.
It is said that the old reciprocity
treaties which were set aside by the
Wilson act, will still serve a useful
purpose as the basis for the new agree
ments, though it will be necessary to
amend them in order to allow for the
changes in business and commerce that
have taken place since they were
drawn.

POINTS AND OPINIONS.

-Hanna's friends are confident he
will be returned to the senate by fair
majority. At least, what Mark checks
off as a fair fgure.-N. Y. Journal
The Dingley robber tariff organs
ought to explain the reduction in the
wages of cotton mill workers in New
England.-Illinois State Register.
The reputation of the country
would not be injured so much by the
resignation of Secretary Sherman as by
the election of Mark Hanna. The fewer
Ohio republicans there are in Office the
louder the American eagle will be en-
titled to scream.--Kansas City Times.
Ohio republicans again show evil
dence of conscientious scruples against
continued subservience to Hanna. But
Hanna smiles and pats what he thinks
is the actual working conscience of lat
ter-day Ohio republicanism strapped
down in his pocket bill-book.-N. Y.
World.
The tactful Forakerites have Mr..
Hanna st their mercy. They can either
defeat him or let him in if he will pay a
large enough ransom. This is the exact
situation Mr.. Hanna is in. If he is beat
en- it will be because money would not
save him. If he is elected it will be. be-
cause he corrupted his enemies.-Co-
lumbus CO., Press.
Another blessing of the Dingley
biIli AS this measure makes the neces-
saries of life higher than heretofore the
Fall River cotton operators have about
decided that they can't afford to strike
and will probably accept the proposed
cut in wages. So we are still within
the limits of the peace and prosperity
News.
President Mckinley has been par
doning bank wreckers at the rate of
one every three weeks ever since he has
been in office. The theory of these acts
is that the president must have mate
rial at hand for some more personal
appointments" The supply of uncon-
victed scoundrels appears to be made
quate.-Minneapoii Times.
The average ad valorem protec-
ton on cotton manufacturers under the
Wilson law was 1878 per cent. The
Dingley law increased it to 1923 per
cent, which is almost prohibitory.
Thus the duties on cotton have gone up
nine per cent. and the wages of the cot
ton operators go down IL per cent. Pro-
lection may protect something or some
body, but it doesn't protect labor
Rochester On. " Herald.
-Hanna's row is hard one, in the
hoeing of which his hand will be sus-
tanned by the president of the United
States, who plumes himself upon being
a champion of the merit system. His
hand will also be sustained by Grosve-
nor, who plumes himself upon being
an opponent of the merit system. AS to
Hama himself, he is for any system or
no system that will make him senator
of the United States from Ohio.-Chi-
cago Chronicle.
Hanna and his lieutenants appear
to have awakened at last to the situa-
ton in Ohio. They no longer claim
Hanna's election as assured; they adj
NIT that he lacks two votes of election
now, and although they assert their
ability to whip the recalcitrants into
line, there is an absence of the tone of
assurance so eonspicuously marking
Hanna claims just after election. Mean
time Kurtz is saying nothing. but his
wcodpile grows apace.-AlbanY Argus.

heterogeneous ON Their Bitters NON
Tolerated by United States Court.
The United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District of New York, Judge
Townsend presiding, handed down an opln-
ion December 23d, 1897, granting injunction
and accounting, in the suit of The Hostetter
Company against Isaac Sommers and LOUIS
Joseph, for infringement of its Trade Marx.
The iurist states, in bold and clear language,
the rights accruing to the Hostetter Com
pany, and the liability incurred by all who
would rob them, by fraud or misrepresenta,,
ton, of the well-earned reputation ana
profits of business built up by the efforts
of half a century The judge says, in part:
''The complainant is entitled to protec-
ton against the appropriation of its trade
mark, by any and all unfair and dlshonor-
able means, and a court of equity has pow
er to grant such protection whenever 1T Is
satisfied that an attempt has been made by
ingenious subterfuges, to invade the rights
of an owner of a trade mark. In
the sharp contest between the individual!
manufacturer, who strives to acquire and
retain the fruits of industry and hon
esty, and the field of keen rivals, seeking
to wrest from him the prize of the public
goodwill, the inventive ingenuity of the
infringer has conceived a great variety of
devices for evading the established rules OF
fair dealing. Courts of equity find
ing that their ultimate object and effect
were to enable and induce the retail seller of
a fraudulent imitation to palm 1t OH on an
unsuspecting public for the genuine article,
and thus to contribute to the Infringement
upon the rights of the original owner, have
not hesitated to apply the remedy"

False Promises of Republicans.

When the New England cotton mills
first began to feel the competition of
the south the republican politicians as
serted shamelessly that it was foreign
competition. They told the thousands
of cotton workers in New England that
the Wilson tariff was harming them;
that when it was repealed they would
be prosperous; that Mr.. McKinley's
election meant increased wages for
them. Mr.. Mckinley is now nomi-
nally president, the Wilson tariff has
been replaced by a republican meas
ure; the cotton mills of New England
have their protection. Yet the wages of
the employees are to be reduced ten per
cent. on New Years day. More cuts are
promised in the next few months.
Worse still, the decreases are admitted
to be permanent
