RETROSPECTIVE!

month ago Saturday we got in our first Cleveland bicycles, and Satur day night found us without Cleveland in the store. During that month we sold and delivered four times as many Cleveland bicycles in Phoenix as the previous agents did in two years. And we can truthfully say that we haven't tried very hard to sell one Of them. There just seems to be popular de- mand" fer an honest wheel like the Cleveland. No one seems to care for a cheap wheel when the Cleveland can be bought for $50.
 We expect a shipment of Clevelands in today. Some of them are sold al- ready; chances are all will be before night. It don't cost you a cent to look at them. It's pleasure to us to show them.

EASTER IN PHOENIX.
Observance of the Day at Several
 Churches.

In all Phoenix places of worship ex- ceDt the Christian church there were 'ba nks of flowers yesterday, notices significant of the resurrection, gayly clad children and lying brushed aside, tho broken bands of gloom. There YVES, as there always is at Easter tine, a strain of glory in the music and the sermons were bright with hope, for Christ was risen. Below are given brief outlines of the ser mons at several churches:
 PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. - The sermon of Rev. Dr. Mckinney of the Presbyterian church, delivered while the Easter music fingered in the air redolent with the perfume of Easter lilies, breathed of the resurrection. Tis text was Luke 24:23 and 24: And when they found not his body they came. saying that they had also seen a vision of angels which said He was alive And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre and found it so, even as the woman had said; but Him they saw not" The resurrection of Christ. said tic preacher, was the eliminating event of history. Without it the fishermen who had been attracted to Christ would have gone back to their nets and the places where He had found them. Without it the hope which had been bred in the breast of man would have died away The resurrection is the gospels answer to the craving for immortality Outside the gospel there is philosophizing, theorizing. wish born hopes. trembling, tears and fears and groping in vain for the solid rock of fact. The resurrection gives an as surance of fact. Death did not end all for Him and we may believe that 1t does not end all for us. What the nature of the resurrection may be; how it will be brought about; in what body we shall live, are subordinate questions. The fact of the resurrection surrounds us with an assurance and we cannot be disturbed. How the mater nal body may be gathered together, re- shapen and revivified, we do not know We are not told that it will be- but we are told that God giveth us body.
 Speaking of the material body, Dr. Mckinney said it was undergoing con- stant change and for aught he knew, the materials composing one mans body may have composed the body Of another a few years before. But in spite of these changes each one has his own body through life. The identity of the body is not necessarily identity of material.
 The future life as proved by Christ's resurrection was comfort ing theme of the sermon. It proved the value of this life, which however enjoyable in youth, loses its charm with ad vancing years. The jingle has passed away and is succeeded by dissatisfac- tion and realization of incompleteness There are ups and downs, disappointed hopes and universal unrest. But the resurrection has shown that life has a value with reference to the future With resurrection comes development

THE PRESIDENT.
His Reasons For Delay-Ready Now to
 Join Hands With Con gress.

New York, April 10.-The Sun prints the following statement by Gen. H. V. Boynton of Washington relative to President Mckinley:
 There are some statements which, in simple justice to the president, should be made No other authority is claimed for them than any observer with ordinary facilities can command.
 From first to last he has been in favor of settling pending questions in favor of the Cpbans. To have had any lower purpSse would have been to ignore the platform upon which he was elected. At no moment has he been for peace at any price. At every moment he has been for peace. first and foremost, provided it could be se- cured with honor and without imperil- ling the interests of those fighting for liberty.
 Near friends of his among public men, whose utterances are too gener- ally accepted as refecting his own, have been, and are, for peace at any price. He has not been able to con- trol them, but they have not repre- sented him at any stage of the pend ing negotiations. They have omitted the conditions which he has never failed to attach to his peace views, namely, that at every step they should accord with the requirements of na- tional honor and humanity.
 On the night of the uprising in con- gross there was erroneousIy projected into the heated situation a statement declared to emanate directly from the White House. and by authority, that the president was highly indignant at congress, cared nothing for their crazi- ness, and other expressions of similar character. There was, of course, no foundation for the assertion, but it was a most unpropitious time to risk the circulation of it. As a matter Of fact, the president looked upon the patriotic outburst in congress as alto gether opportune since it could not fail to impress the authorities at Madrid with the intense feeling and the stern determination of congress. The president, knowing congress as thoroughly as he does, was confident that the moment he could reach the leaders and personally explain the sit uation there would be no difficulty in securing the delay necessary to receive formal replies from Spain. He went further than to rest the request upon diplomatic grounds, and frankly set forth reasons why a few days delay would be of immeasurable importance to us.
 It is curious that many congressmen who are now most prominent in urg- ing haste have belonged to that large company who for years have made it impossible to appropriate the needed sums to push coast defences with vigor. and who have always opposed liberal expenditures for warships and docks. They belong to the school which has held that big g uns and modern car riages and emplacements could be pro

duced by the ingenuity of this remark able Yankee nation with the same rap idity that ordinary castings and coun- try wagons are turned out by our Hle- chanics.
 The present situation has been startling lesson to this sort of states men. Until the president suggested It, it does not seem to have occurred to many that it would be prudent at least to defer the inauguration of hostlllties till some of the millions we have just invested in ships, guns, ammunition and other materials of war are known to be we'll on their way to New York. It does not require much military knowledge to see that in this matter there will be a vast difference between declaring war early in the coming week instead of early last week. The same is true in regard to the defences at a number of points which the close of the week find secure, but which a short time since were in disorder, be- cause the various clements of the de- fence, although on the ground, were not yet assembled.
 To a large extent, the president has been obliged to be his own secretary of state, as was President Harrison when at very critical time, MT. Blaine was practically disabled. Judge Day has been an excellent second. The work at the White House has involved a prolonged diplomatic battle, and, at the same time, the carrying forward of most comprehensive and energetic preparations for war.
 The state. war and navy depart ments have been centers of greater ac- tivities than the country will soon un- derstand in detail. These splendidly organized offices have rendered the president full aid. and, with the at torney generals office, have as de- partments. been factors in the situ- ation The other executive depart ments have continued on a peace foot ing, though. so far as the head of it is concerned. it is no secret that the department of agriculture has been for war.
 The uprising in congress was the re- suit of conviction that the Maine re- port and what was known of the evil dence were altogether sufficient to show Spanish complicity. From this a large number in each house jumped to the erroneous conclusion that the president had in mind only a purpose to treat the Maine murder as an incl dent. Their emphatic protest was against it. They now understand that he let it pass without demand of any kind, lest Spain should reply with an assenting proposition, but qualified and coupled with requests which could not well be ignored. and which inevit- ably would have led to the very delay which congress sought to avoid.
 The task, considering all it's ramifi- cations. has been herculean. Except for such help as already indicated. the president has borne the brunt of it. From the day that the declaration of his message excited Madrid to the present he has given unceasing atten- tion to every element of the case dip 1omatic, military or naval. With his forthcoming message he will join hands with congress and it is net doubted that both, upheld by a solidi- fled country, will move on together to compel final and satisfactory set clement in the court of last resort.
 Unless Spain reconsiders and yields, the nation will turn aside from peace flu! ways to wage righteous war.

Findings of the Spanish Court

Washington, March PA full synop-
sis of the report of the Spanish naval
commission which investigated the de-
struction of the (battleship is here given
by the Associated Press. 1t is taken
from a copy of the original report,
which is now OIL it's way here from Ha-
vana the SYNOPSIS being calbled in the
meantime and today placed in the
hands of this government. The con-
illusions reached are directly opposite
to those in the report of the court of
inquiry submitted by congress today.
The synopsis is as follows:
THE report contains declarations
made by ocular witnesses and experts.
From these statements it clearly de-
duces and proves the absence of all
those attendant circumstances which
are invariably present or the occasion
of the explosion of a torpedo.
1.-The evidence of witnesses compare
lively close to the Maine at the moment
is to the effect that only n explosion
occurred, that no column Of water was
Thrown into the air, that no shocks to
the side of the nearest vessel
was felt, nor ON land was any vibration
noticed, and that no dead fish were
found.
1.-The evidence of the senior pilot of
the harbor states that there is EaIbund-
ance of fish in the harbor and this is
corroborated by other witnesses. The
assistant engineer of works states that
after explosions made during the exc
| cution of works in the harbor he has al
| ways found e fish.
1.-The divers were unable to examine
the bottom of the Maine, which was
| buried in the mud, but a careful exami-
nation of the sides of the vessel, the
rents and the breaks which all point
| outward shows without a doubt that
| the explosion was from the inside.
"a minute examination of the bottom
of the harbor aroun the vessel shows
absolutely no sign Of the action of a
torpedo and the fiscal Gudge-advocate)
of the commission can find no prece-
dent for the explosion of the storage
| magazines of a vessel by a torpedo.
THE report makes clear tina owing
to the special nature of the proceedings
followed and the absolute respect
| shown for the extra territorial of the
Maine the commission has been pre-
vented from making such an
| ton Of the inside of the vessel as would
| determine even the hypothesis of in
ternal origin of the accident. This is
TO be attributed to the regretful refusal
to permit of the necessary co-opera-
tfon of the Spanish commission both
with the commander and Of the
Maine and the different american Of
ffcials in command to investigate the
causes of the accident and, later on
with these employed in salvage work
THE report finishes by stating that
an examination of the inside and out
side of the Maine as soon as such ex-
animation may De possible, as also OF
the bottom where the vessel rests, will
prove that, supposing the remains (ot
the wreck) mot to be totally or partially
altered i'm the process of extraction, the
explosion was undoubtedly due to
some interior cause"

Among the passengers who arrived

vana. The fact OF his being a careful,
conservative cuisines man., gives
weight to Any assertion he makes. He
said that the city Of Havana might be
likened to a volcano, liable to eruption
at any moment. Palace authorities, by
the enforcement of stringent

Commodore Schley Takes Command

Fort Monroe. Va, March 2s.-More than
the usual enthusiasm was displayed to-
day by the officers and men of that por-
ion Of the American flying squadron al
ready assembled here When Commodore
w. S. Schley took command.
At $50 o'clock the commander of the
Brooklyn. with some petty officers, took
Commodore Schley aboard a lanch and
conveyed him to the fleet which lies near
Newport News. The commodore was in
civilian dress. but was saluted with the
usual formalities as he passed up the
Brooklyn's ~companionway to begin &C
tive service. Within a half hour after
boarding the ship Commodore Schley. in
full uniform, was ready to take command
and the men Of the fleet were drummed
to quarters with the yards manned, the
marines on deck and officers and gun
ners at post. Commodore Schley stepped
to the bridge of the Brooklyn and, read
ing his commission as commander, took
possession. At the same instant his flag
was broken from the BroOklyn's mast
head and one of the big guns belched
forth a salute which was answered from
the Massachusetts, lying near.

Chairman Caldwell, of the railway
commission, arrived today and soon after
went to the superior court room, being
a witness in the suits against the South
ern and SeabOaTd Air Line for issuing
free passes in 1851.
Raliwa commissioner Abbott was ask
ed today whether he thought the COM
mission would take up tomorrow the pas

know, but thought it doubtful.
State Labor Commissioner Hamrick re-
turned today from the piedmont section.
He reports no cessation in the work of
Industrial development and thinks 1898
Will be a notable year for mill building
in the state.
Commissioner of Agriculture John r.
Smith appear to be uncertain as to the
tenue of his office. He continues to be

James H. Holt. of Burlington, today
rendered his services to the governor in
case of war with Spain. One Charles F.
Wilson hailing from Iredell county, but
now living at Washington, D. c., asks
