son Methodist Episcopal church, of which
she was "a member. She was one of the
original members, now only survived ny
one who remains of that number. Just
two months ago she came from her son
to visit friends in this city, and after re-

Gil Them IIonR.

Our reports from Havana fairly reek
with the danger to which our Consul
General and other Americans in Ha-
Vana are exposed. The remark of a
Spanish colonel at one of the clubs is a
shocking Illustration. He declared
that upon the first hostile act com
mitted by America. the Spanish officers
and troops would cut the threats of
every American and every reconcen-
trado in and around the city.
The situation is not likely to have
been improved by the story that Pando
has been captured by CaliXto Garcia.
If it should prove to be true. it might
very easily create such rage among the
volunteers and other mob elements OF
Havana as TO bring on the inevitable
outbreak at once. In any case, Gen.
Lee and all of his compatriots in Ha-
vana are in the most serious peril Of
their lives. and, in not calling them
home, Mr.. Mckinley is himself taking
risk which we should think would
worry him greatly.
If he still desires to avert war with
Spain, no matter at what cost, he
ought TO reflect that another Havana
massacre would not tend to peace, to
any appreciate extent on the con-
trary, it might act as the last straw
and drive the nation into irresistible
action.
Matters are not much better in Mad
rid, where the presence of Gen. Wood
ford. his family, and his staff is hardly
tolerated, and where he is being sub
iected to studied snubs, insults ana
prosecutions without number. 1t is
about time that the hollow mockery of
this pretense of amicable relations with
Spain We're put at an end Gen Wood
ford and Gen. Lee, both should be or

Spain and Cuba as we'll. In all human

Thirty billions.

(From the New York SUM-
The assessed valuation OF real and per
sonal property in the United States at the
time of the eleventh census was $25,+I3.-
Us. AS This is an understatement of the
wealth of the nation in 1890. but the fig
ures are sufficiently impressive.
Between 1880 and 1890 the total assessed
valuation had increased from Sl71S9. 903 495
to SO, 473 173. AIS. and the assessed valuation
per capita had increased from $341.73 TO
SiO71S The most conservative estimate
of the assessed valuation in 1898 will not
fall below $50. 900 eco 900 The present vaIu-
alton probably exceeds that sum by two
billions of dollars
What, then. is the emergency appropria-
ton of $4,000, 600, voted last week for the
national defense. and now available for
use by President Mckinley?
1t is a tax of less than one-siXth of one
per cent upon the nations resources.
Now. in matters merely of local i'm
provement not of national self-protecuon
and self-preservation. an expenditure and
an Indebtedness up to 10 per cent of total
valuation are we'll within the limit of pru-
dence set by financial experience.
Ten per cent of thirty billion dollars is
three thousand million dollars. and three
thousand million dollars make sixty times
the amount of the initial appropriation
voted for defensive purposes last week by
a patriotic Congress. The present inter
est-bearing national debt is SsiI.OOl 600.
That is to say. Congress might go on APP
propriating $4,000, 900 a week for every
week during the rest of the year 1898 be-
fore it had imposed upon our national
wealth burden of bonded Indebtedness
corresponding to the limit set by the char
ter of the city of New York upon bonding
for local improvements.
And after the 10 per cent limit had been
reached? Well, then it might be time To
begin to talk about extraordinary OUTLAWS
and pecuniary sacrifices for the sake of
the nations safety and honor.
These thirty billions are fighting bill
ions, if fighting there must be; and In any
consideration of the nations capacity TO
prosecute and endure war they constitute
a principal factor.

WooLSEY TALKS OF WAR.
The Expert International Lawyer
Thinks IL Cannot Be Averted.

IhfhthS NJ cannot tie AFeTfed.
New Haven March 21.-Prof Theodore
5. WoOIsey. who occupies the chair of in
ternationaI law at Yale University. in an
address before the Republican League,
said:
II think that We are more likely to
have war than many seem willing TO ad-
nit For years we have been confronted
by a serious state of affairs in our reIa-
lions with Spain in regard to Cuba. and
a great many perhaps are beginning 10
think that it is about time we put an end
TO the trouble.
THE condition of affairs in the island
has injured our trade; the war in Cuba
has put severe burden on our nation in
maintaining neutrality, and the conduct
of the war in Cuba has outraged our
sense of humanity. These are TO me
three pretty strong reasons for inter-
vention.
Some people. reading that the loca-
ton of the Winchester Arms COmpaay-s
works is marked on the English ord
nance maps are apprehensive that in
case of war these works would be an OBJ
Ject of attack for a hostile fleet. They
also fear that hostile ships would bonn
bard and lay waste our SeaCoast cities.
These are results which would not be
likely To happen. as the destruction OF
private property in this manner is for
hidden by the rules of international law.
The Winchester COmpany's works are
private property. and d nation, should it
destroy them would have 10 make rep
aration.
The results which it seems TO me we
might fear from war are these: Every
bushel of wheat or grain which We ship
to England would be subject to capture
by Spanish privateers if carried in Amer
lean bottoms. This would upset our pres
ent conditions of doing business. Again.
grain and cotton would be shipped by
way of Canada instead of directly from
our ports. and this would materially at
feet the railroads of the country.
IF there is a war it is likely TO be a
pretty sharp one

utieS Probable.

Hazleton, Pa. March 21.-The publish
ed announcemen that the prosecuting
committee which figured in the recent
trial of Sheriff Martin and his deputies
had. in conjunction with lis attorneys,
held a meeting 1T WilkoSbarre yesterday
and determined there should be another
trial, on some of the other counts of the
indictment. was denied by the attorneys
for the defense here.
District Attorney Martin, when asked
about the matter. gave non-committal
answer. He replied that he did not think
it would be proper to talk at this time
for publication.
John Nemeth, treasurer of the prose-
cutting committee. said that while the
committee had spent a good deal of
money in the recent trial. there was still
quite sum in its hands. that Contribu-
tons were being daily received, and be-
fore long enough money would be in the
hands of the committee to engage law
yers TO press the prosecution of the case.
and there would be at least one more
trial
Meanwhile the committee is putting
every effort forth to get more money by
appealing to labor organizations and
sympathizers throughout the country.
Father Aust, chairman of the commit
tee, will go to Chicago in a few days on
such a mission.

4 Sensible AIIinnce.

If the President and Congress should
recognize Cuban independence, without
any disgraceful qualification, and also
demand reparation for the Maine mas
sacre, it is possible that Spain might
resent these justihable acts by declar-
ing war. In such an event we should
have the whole force of the Cuban
army Of liberation with US, and its ALI
ance and cooperation would be yalua-
bic in shortening the days it would take
US to drive the last Spaniard out of
Cuba
We have recent reports from the
field in Santiago de Cuba, and Puerto
Principe, where the power of the re-
public is complete, showing that the
armies Of Generals Garcia and Rabi are
ready and eager 10 attack the Spanish
strongholds in the west, joining the
army Of Gen. Gomez for that purpose,
as soon as hosslities begin. 1t is to be
hoped that due attention will be paid
To these facts, both by the Execu-
tive and Congress. Indeed, as far as it
can be done with due regard to mill
tary objects, il would be the proper and
generous thing to permit the Cubans
all the opportunity possible to "be in at
the death" Of the cruel and blood
thirsty power which has so long and
relentlessly prosecuted, outraged, and
murdered their wives, daughters, and
little ones.
This proposition does not involve any
necessity on our part to take the initia-
tive in declaring war. If we do what
justice, mercy, and national honor
make mandatory upon US, either Spain
will do that, or yaCate Cuba and leave
American charity to succor the victims
Of her fiendishness. In either case the
result viii be the same The Cubans
viii have their loved and fertile, but
desolated, country, without paying
tribute for it to the oppressor and
America viii enjoy the proud satisfac-
ton Of having redeemed itself from the
infamy of the past three years.
No indemnity to Spain, no arbitra-
ton, no tinkering with the fraud "au-
tonomy j." but relief 10 the starving, in
dependence for the island, and ven
geance for massacred Americans are
what this country sternIy demands Of

quoted as stating that, if the Maine re

Mr. Hit is the strongest kind of an Ad-
