Sherman on Expansion.

Former Secretary Sherman accorded
The G o b an interview which will
be found to be very interesting read
ing. Now that the veteran statesman
is relieved from the perplexities and
restraints of Office, and has babe to
public station a final adieu, he shows
in his appearance and conversat ton the
rebound of the relief, and gives lit:le
evidence of either the mental or ply
steal disability of which we heard so
much when he was at the head of the
state department and. there is room to
believe, when interested parties were
endeaVoring to secure his retirement.
Mr.. Sherman has compromised his
opposition to the policy of expansion of
territory, so emphatically expressed in
his "Recollections," to the extent of
favoring the annexation of Hawaii, evil
IDENTIFY induced by the practical control
attained there by Americans, but he
sets his face against the appropriation
of the Philippines and gives reasons
that are incontrovertible. He would
also favor the acquisition of Porto
Rico for naval purposes, but the danger
is that when expansion begins the ap-
petite for it will grow and no limits
can be set to it, either by reason or
prudence.
Mr.. Sherman brings out one point
that has escaped general recognition,
the effect of the destruction Of the
Maine upon the public sentiment and
upon national policy. Until that event
Cuba was the trading stock of the
politician. The Morgans and Masons
ranted, and the jingoists Of the press
raved, but the great mass looked on in
different. They would like to see Cuba
free, but they didn't care to go to war
to accomplish it. But when the Maine
was destroyed the blood OF the nation,
after the first stunning effect passed,
rose to war heat at once. II the ad-
ministration treated it as an ''incident''
the people recognized it as an act of
war. 1t was this sentiment that found
expression in the action Of congress
when it rejected the presidents request,
declared war and ordered Spain to
evacuate Cuba and Cuban waters.
| There has been a large quantity of SEN
! timentalism about the purpose of the
war, but it is primarily for vengeance
for the slaughter in Havana harbor.

she would detach another sheet and put an

NO." was the reply, Il should be

adopt the policy of acquiring territory

and inhabited largely by a people who
are entire strangers to our institutions,

WILLIAM PRoBsT KILLED.
Horses Ran Away and Dashed Into
Moving Cars.

William Probst, a prominent and re-
spected resident of Archibald was
killed yesterday afternoon in a shock
ing manner. Mr. Probst is a member
OF the firm of Probst Brothers, car
penters and builders, and was return
ing from an inspection of some work
in progress when he met with his fatal
accident,
He was driving and in coming down
the long hill which leads into Arch
bald at the upper end of the town the
team became frightened and dashed
down the hill free from control. John
Sauer, who was also in the wagon,
sprang out and escaped with a few
painful bruises. Mr.. Probst remained
and endeavored to regain control of his
horses.
The Delaware and Hudson tracks
cross the road at the foot of the Hill
and a train of gravity cars were pass
ing at the time. Into this the team
dashed and PrObst was hurled against
and under the cars In all probability
he was instantly killed.
His body was terribly mangled. The
remains were removed to his home on
South Main street. Deceased is sur
vived by wife and four children.
