WHAT IT WILL BUY.
What PrealdsIt McK iD!ey VIII Do With
the Emergency Fund,

The fifty million dollars which Con-
gress voted to make the country ready
for war would not 90 far toward de-
fraying expenses of a Struggle with
Spain. The Cuban war has already
cost Spain $2SO,00O, 600. President
Lincoln got an appropriation $780,
0OG,0 at the outbreak of hostilities
between the north and south. Presi,
dent Mckinley would probably spend,
or contract to spend, this initial $780,
00O,O00 as follows:
For Warships now IN the market:
Norway's Torkensjold, $1,00O,000;
Norway's Harold Raarjogre, $1,0O0,-

900; Amazonas, 50, 900, 900; Amaz onas'

unnamed japanese ships at Cramps
and at San Francisco. $4,000, 900 each 4;
four hundred men per ship, provision

100000; arming and manning mer
chantmen, 50, 900, 900; ship ammuni
ton and projectiles, S1,O00,0O0. Total
for the navy, 2l,S00,000. The initial
expenditures for the army, supposiag
100000 National Guardsmen would be
called out, would be as follows: For
100000 improved rifles (present make
OF rifle no match tor Spain's) $780,
900; rations, contract for six months,
81, 800, 900; uniforms, sl,75O,OOO; am
munition for six months. 81, 900, 600;
machine guns, 81. 100000; initial ex-
penses of mobilization, $500,000; ad
ditional employees in war department,
$5OO,0OO; pay Of army, SO, 100000.
Total for the army, S19,300,00 For
coast defenses: New guns and mortars,
their emplacements and carriages, 81
100000; ammunition and projectiIes,
$1,000, 900; submarine mines, torpe-
does, cables and chains, $1,000, 900;
pay for 10000 additional men for
manning batteries, and miscellaneous
and emergency expenses, s., 300, 600,
On the outbreak of actual hostilities
the president would undoubtedly ask
for $500, 900, 900 or $500, 100000 more.

ENGLAND is WITH US.
ANY Trouble hreateninE the Untted S :ases
WILLIS Shared By G;ens Britain

VIII bs Shared By Great Britain
England apparently wishes i: dis,
tirctly understood that in case the
United States becomes involved in a
foreign war that she would side with
the United States. In the British
House OF Commons. which is now in
session at London, Mr.. Ronald Mum
roe Ferguson, liberal, asked the parli-
amentary secretary for the foreign
Office, Mr.. Curzon, in the house OF
commons Thursday, whether there is
any truth in the reports ttas commu-
nications on the Cubsn question have
been exchanged between the British
ambassador at Washington, Sir Juli-
an Pauncefote. and the government
of the United States.
Mr.. Curzon said tia! no communi-
cations had been exchanged.
Hon. Hubert Valentine Duncombe,
conservative, gave notice that he
would ask Mr.. Culzon, whether, with
the view of recognizing the identity OF
the Interests of al English-speaking
people, her msjesty's government will
consider the advisable of placing the
services OF the British hse! st tie dis
posal of the United States in the event
OF complications between the United
States and any foreign power. The
question, however, was not put.
Relative to the withdrawal OF his
question, Mr.. Duncombs said: CATER
consultation with my irienos, decid-
ed that the exact form of the ques.
ton made it inopportune to putt: It
was framed owing to the widely held
opinion in the house Of commons thatit
is high time the foreign powers should
be told in unmistakable terms that any
blow struck at either Great Britain or
the United States was equally blow
at the ether. I was profoundly con-
Yircsd of this today. Many more
members than supposed would do so
came to me in order to say they heart.
ily endorsed my question. am con-
vicced the government would have
desired to answer my proposed ques-
ton af6rmatively, and would have
done so had it not involved other con.
siderations, besides expressing what I
believed the present government sim
cerely holds-thst in the face of for
eign complications the Interests in the
future OF Great Britain and the United
States are inseperably intertWined.
70 days expression ard endorsement
we viii eVentuate so soon as We can
frame the question in the exact terms
which clearly express the feeling of
the house of comnons-that any
trouble threatening the United States
will be shared by Great Britain"
O.her members OF the house of COM
nous who were interviewed on the
same subject ali spoke in a similar
strain,
