BELIEVE THE MONROE
 DOCTRINE IS DEAD.
What tho English Think of the Prinei- pIes of the Monroe Doctrine In
 America Today.

New York, Aug. 1.-The London cor respondent of The Tribune writing un- der date of July 22 says
 English writers on American affairs assume that the Monroe doctrine, on be- half of which President Cleveland is- sued challenge to England two years ago, has been abandoned or compromised by the United States government in the present conflict with Spain. An ex- pression which is constantly heard i'll conversation and read in print is, Mon roeism is dead"
 The Monroe principle was that Flu ropeans must keep their hands off the American continent, retaining their pos sessions according to the status quo, but not enlarging their colonial holdings and conquests. The Monroe doctrine will be strengthened rather than i'm paired by the expulsion of the SpaDiardg from Cuba. Monroeism, instead of being killed off, is vitalized and reinvig- orated by the enlargementof of American influence in the West Indies
 What English writers on American affairs fail to perceive is the irrelayan cy of their own interpretation of the Monroe doctrine. The principle "hands off the American continent is empha- sizing rather than minimized when Ha- waii and the Spanish West Indies are brought directly under the influence of the United States.

TIE KIoNplke RUSH.

The rush to the Klondike has com menced. the most adventurous of the gold-seekers braving the half-oyer winter in order to get ahead of their fellows. These daring hut not over- wise chaps are all going into the Klondike in spite of the fact freely announced that claims for fifty miles around Dawson City have already been taken up. That is, al those open to miners, the alternate claims being reserved for the Canadian Government. This is not the case on the American side of the bound ary, where every claim is open to filing, and where there are no duties, royalties, restrictions or penalties under the United States mining laws. The early rush of men into Alaska is composed mostly of 'tenderfeet," who have had the dor mant gold fever all fall and winter and with whom it has broken out too strong TO resist. A repetition of last years experiences on the trails will be severe but good lesson to many of them.
 The biggest strike yet reported from the American side of Alaska is made by David Ward, who has found q region on one of the largest tribu- taries of the Yukon, where he pros pected streams and gulches, finding rich gold deposits everywhere. On his return last fall he brought back all the gold he could carry, and he only came out so that he could go back this spring prepared to take advantage of his rich strike to the fullest extent. He is building a boat
 with complete machinery for placer mining, will provision her for two years and will carry a party oi twenty selected men with him. After takink up claims for his party, Ward will announce the exact location Oi | his new Eldorado to the world. He says there is room for ten thousand miners where he made his find. Ht is now in Philadelphia, Pa, and vii be glad to give Information or advice Iconcerning the gold fields to any
 who write to him.

SPEAKER REED
Called on the President-His Second Visit Since the
 Inauguration.

WASHINGTON, D. O., March 21.- z Speaker Reed and Chairman Hit, of the House Foreign Affairs com mittee, called on the President this morning and remained with him to the exclusion of numerous visitors. The Cuban situation was discussed. The fact that this was Reeds second visit to the President since his inau- guration caused unusual importance to be attached to his visit at this time.
 All callers on the President this morning came away taking recog- hilton of Cuba at an early date.
