DAVIS is CONSERVATIVE.
lie Urges People to Wait, for SIcIkin
Will DO The Right Thing.

Detroit. Feb. Ex-senator Cushman
X. Davis of Minnesota chairman of the
senate committee on foreign affairs
spoke here tonight at the annual ban
quet of the Michigan club, which was
attended by nearly 500 republican lead
ers. Senator Davis responded TO the
toast, Our Foreign Relations" Touch
ing upon the Cuban question he said:
War has been raging in Cuba, insur-
recton. a terrible strife for liberty
which has met Spain by examples of
horrors which have deeply shocked the
civilized world, and more especially the
people Of the United States. Such
things have transpired IN Poland. Hun
gary and Armenia, and the procrasti-
nations of the nations in dealing with
these horrors have pressed heavily
upon the hearts of the people. ] do not
wish 10 fire your enthusiasm TO any un-
warranted conclusion. The duties of
congress and of the president are con-
fined solely TO the interests and advan-
iages of the people of the United States.
However profoundly our sympathies
may be stirred, We are still brought
back TO the question in connection with
our foreign relations. what is for the
interest. honor and dignity of the peo-
pie Of the United States.
Where the hand of cruelty or indig-
nifty is laid on our people, better war by
land and sea than peace under such cir
cumstances. But so long as no Ameri-
can is deprived Of his rights and lber-
ties, | implore you, let Us be moderate
in act and word
Il am commissioned to bring YOU no
Word from the government but our
president is Weighing these questions If
the hour. \ lnrge portion of OUR people
wish 10 drive him forward into war. Lei
us take the advice Of Captain Sigsbee
end suspend judgment on the Maine
disaster. If then our dark forebodings
are justified by the investigation. be as
sured that President Mckinley and the
United States government will not be
found wanting in any act which that
dreadful circumstances shall render
necessary.
Does anybody suppose that Mckinley.
the soldier. that our John Sherman.
your own General Aleer. John D. Long
and the United States senate lightly feel
or stinting1y put aside these questions
1t is SO easy for one not having these
responsibilities to urge doing something
right away. but impose these response
bilities upon those who thus complain
and they would approve the course of
the president Of the United States.

FOR A NEW CITY HALL
A Suggestion That the Present
Building Be Sold.
THEN ERECT A BIG ONE
Big Enough TO Accommodate the Post
Office Until the Government Does
Something Several Excel
lent Sites Proposed.

In the talk about the need Of new
moyal Of the fire department from the
city hall building. many suggestions are
offered by different persons for a So
tuition Of the problem. \ well-knowl
business man yesterday sent a COM
municaticn 10 the Standard suggesting
the sale of the present city hall, with
Its cramped and insufficient quarters,
and the erection of new and sufficient
by commodious city building with Jail
annex. it is stated that the city, as
some Of its citizens are compelled To
provide postoffice room for the govern
ment, could afford to put up a new city
building and devote a portion of the
government gets around TO erecting a
building OF its own. As site for new
city building II Is suggested that the
most available and central would be on
Granite street, either on the Thornton
property. at the corner of Wyoming:
the Noyes property on the opposite cor
ner, or the Speer property on the alley.
The latter lot is 60x13I, and the Noyes
property about 11y200 and fronting on
three streets. Between the Noyes and
Speer lots is the property owned by w.
II. Young, also fronting on Granite and
Quartz streets and abutting on an alley
running from one street TO the other.
That whole block has often been spoken
of as a good site for the government
building. Il such a site should ever be
required

CROPPING IN THE DARK.
The Divers Encounter Many Difficulties
and Dangers.

Havana. Feb. 22-The court of in
uuiry opened at haf-past 10 o'clock
and took a recess at half-past Il
o'clock, Lieutenant Holman, navigator
of the Maine. was examined at the
morning session. The court net for
the afternoon session at half past l
o'clock and Lieutenant Commander
Wainwright, executive officer Of the
Maine, was called to the stand. Lieu
tenant Wainwright has been in imme-
date charge of the wreck since the
explosion. Four divers were at work
two in the fore part of the ship and
the others aft The task lis moss labor
ious and the men are naturally ~
tremely careful, as they have had To
work in complete darkness and several
have had bad falls. Electric lights
from the Mangrove are now available
and much good is expected from them.
Nearly all the possible salvage has now
been made from the cabin aft The eff
forts to reach the ward and mess rooms
are frustrated by some unknown obsta-
Gle 1t is expected To find bodies in
these rooms. Two cases of 10-ineh am
munition have been found, the one hay
ing exploded, the other fun Of powder
These We're found forward.
The work of securing the bodies un-
der the hatch has been most difficult
in the dark, but II Is hoped that the
electric lights will be Of great assist
ance. The bodies are much mutilated
and some partially burned. The Off
GERS OF the court OF inquiry paid an
other visit Ia the wreck to-day Cap

members of the court to the captain

SIMON SAM is A CLAM
As President of Hayti, He Isn't
Worth Slam.
HE'S A PERFECT SHAM
Fouchard Has Him on the Ham, and
Will Try to Ram and Jam and
Cram Himself Through to
the Presidency.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Kingston, Jamaica, Feb. 15.-Calis-
theme Fouchard. late Haytian minister
Of finance, is back In Hayti, conspiring
against the government. He has formed
a connection with the party of the late
Boisrand canal, and this combination is
likely to cause trouble for the present
administration. Fouchard is popular.
and is regarded by all parties as good
finaneier and exceedingly able man.
His competitor for tine presidency will
probably be Manigat at present minis
ter to France. His accession would be
a serious blow to foreign interests in
Hayti. he has been noted for his
hatred Of foreigners
President Sam has proved weak and
yacillating in the extreme and his adj
ministration has lost favor in the coun-
try from its cowardly policy over the
Emile Lueders' incident and his inabil-
1ty to remedy the present deplorable
financial condition.
Fouchard was candidate for the
presidency at the death of Hippolyte.
The party of the late president which
controlled political matters at the time
nominated instead Simon Sam who has
been puppet in the hands Of the wire
puliers. Fouehard became finance min
ister but was eventually dismissed on
charges of peculation. He is probably
