The gist of Senator Wolcott's con-
illusions is that there is no hope of
an immediate international agree
ment on the question of silver COM
age. it would have been different,
he thinks, but for influence which,
as he alleges, proceeded from the
United States Treasury Depart nent
affecting the attitude of the British
government. But in ascribing these
influences to the hostility o' Secre-
tarv Gage, while applauding the
friendlincss of President Mckinley,
Mr.. Wolcott makes Il discrimination
which 1t is difficult to understand.
If the head of the administration
were favorable to his views, it is
hardly credible that the secretary of
the treasury would be found in active
opposition.
This, however. is only an Incl
dent. The main deduction to be
drawn from Senator Wolcott's state
ment is that the United States is in a
situation where it can afford to wait,
without dctrimcnt, for the solution
of the international problem.-

The Montpelier Record is inter-
esting and perhaps we'll informed
when it remarks:
"Thc uncasiness of the head that

with the anxiety that is going to find
lodgings under the hair that adorns
the heads of our state olficia dur
ing the next few months. \ spirit
of unrest that BODIES no good to the
old fixtures seems to pervade the
political atmosphere, and there IS Il
pronounced expression for changes
all along the line"
There is good deal of the same
kind of talk heard in various quar-
tiers indicating dissatisfaction with
the present regime. Not that the
state officials who have been made
the target of newspaper shafts are
not capable officers, but there seems
to be Il sentiment, which has been
many long years in finding express
sion, that some of thcm should be
brought to realizing sense of the
fact that they were not elected for
life

The operatives concerned IN the
great strike in New Bedford and
other New England manufacturing
towns will have public opinion on
their side if it is demonstrated that
the cut-down in wages is needless
that the business of the manufac-
turers employing them does not de-
mand such Il sacrifice on their part.
Thousands Of men are now idle and
it is to be hopee that this great labor
agitation threatening New England
interests will soon be satisfactorily
adjusted.
The. c's nothing IN it. The argu-
mcnt used against the annexation of
Hawaii is the same that was used
against the incorporation into the
great American empire of Florida
and the Louisiana purchase, earlier
in the century, lIardwick Gazette.
One of the chief arguments agains
the annexation of Hawaii is that in
is several thousand miles away and
inhabited in great part by 4 dark
skinned people who don't want to
be annexed. This we believe would
hardly have applied to Florida
or the LOUISIANA purchase.

HOBSON IN NEW YORK.
The Hero of the Merrimac Episode
Denies the Engagement Story.

New York, July 27.-Lieutenant Hob
son arrived here early today from Nor
ristown, N. j., and went at once to the
offices of the Merritt & Chapman
Wrecking company, on Wills street,
where he was in close consultation
with the officers of the company for
two hours. At the end of the confer
ence he said that the contracts for the
raising of the wreck of the Cristobal
Colon We're about concluded.
THE contracts, of course, must be
approved by the judge advocate gen.
eral of the naval construction board"
he said. "They are not fully completed.
l go to Washington tonight and will
know more about my future plans after
/ have seen the officials there. The air
bags with which it is proposed to raise
the ship will probably be constructed
by a rubber company in New York.
They will measure about six by fif-
teen and will have a capacity of about
thirteen tons each. Pontoons of the
size required to assist in raising the
ship will probably be constructed at
once"
When asked If there was any truth
in the report that he was engaged 70
young woman from Kansas and that
the engagement had been announced
by her. he smiled and said:
Il really don't know what you are
talking about. l am sure l know moth
ing of the matter"
Several visitors came to the Office OF
the wrecking company to see Lieuten-
ant Hobson, and he chatted with each
few moments. He said he might
make short visit to his Alabama
home if he returned to the fleet via
Key West, but he was afraid it would
be impossible on this trip, as it would
be necessary to get back to his work
at the earliest date.
There was no demonstration as he
walked up Wall street accompanied by
two friends, and only a few persons
recognized him. He left for Washing.
ton on an afternoon train.
