ADJUSTMENTS.
James O'yeiiI.

James O'Neill has this season made an
other notable contribution TO the list Of
romantic plays he has produced during
his successful career as q star, by maxi
ing a most elaborate revival Of 1.-THE Dead
Heart" which achieved triumph when
first produced by Mr.. O'Neill In this coun-
try five years ago at Hooley's theater,
Chicago. Immediately after Sir Henry
Iryins's production in London. The story
deals with a thrilling tale OF intrigue,
conspiracy. revenge, love and self-sacri-
fee. with the action laid during the three
stages OF the French revolution. In fact,
the sustained interest OF this romantic
play has only been eoualed by Alexander
Dumas euthrallng version of Monte
Cristo," which Mr.. ONeiil has played
himself over 5000 times.
Mr.. O'Neiil opens three nights en-
gagement at the Seattle theater tomor-
row Sunday night. appearing in Monte
Cristo' Sunday and Tuesday and THE
Dead Heart" Monday.

DON'T WANT TO. BUT MUsTg

Saturdays meeting Of the Massachu-
setts Republican Club was notable for
the free expression of opinion for and
against imperialism. Congressman
Boutelle of Maine, in opposing terrific
rial expansion, made the interesting
statement that the Spanish war might
have been averted had it not been for
the newspapers printed in red INK, /"
and for about fifty republican congress
men who rebeHed against the presi-
dents arbitration measures. That.
however, does not touch the main ques-
ton as it exists today Mr. Boutelle
could not say what the result of the
Paris negotiations would be, but he
deprecated expansion as deliberate
policy.
Gen. Stewart L. Woodford, ex-minis-
ter to Spain, did not advocate expansion
as a good thing in ITSELF as did the
southern clergyman who spoke. On
the contrary, he seemed to deplore it.

Element of the Philippine question rests
primarily with the president. Neces-
sarily this involves certain matters of
which the public is not and cannot be
with propriety well informed. Bv the
constitution as well as by the nature
OF things, the decision rests with the
president, at all events till the treaty
IS laid before the senate. The people
have confidence in Mr. McKinlev. and
he deserves the confidence, that this
momentous problem will be solved in
the wisest and most advantageous
manner. 1t is proper for the people
to express their convictions according
to the light which they have, and it is
right that the president should know
these views. But when the decision is
finally made, there will be no doubt as
to the loyal support which the whole
nation will give to him. The attempt,
however, to force the president into
any radical departure from the tradi-
tional and fundamental principles of
American government is to be deplored
scarcely less than an effort to bring on
a needless war,

where, be it added high rates Of inter
est now prevail. The facts seem to be
as follows: The 100000 900 war loan has
now been practically all paid into the
treasury. In order to avert a threat
ened stringency in the money market,
the treasury has been depositing its
large surplus of funds in the banks, the
amount thus disposed of having reach
ed the unusual total of $9S,000,00O. Fur
theImore, some 100000 has been sent
out in payment of interest on govern
ment bonds not due till November l..
Combined with these efforts are the
recent importations of gold, which
amounted to $2,5OO0OO last week. The
result is that the New York bank
statement of Saturday showed an in
crease of $s,OOO,OOO in cash, and there
was an expansion of $40, 10000 in loans,
running the deposits up by $1S,500, 900.
These loans, it appears, are bills of
exchange, which represent one way of
lending money in Europe. The in
crease in the Bank of England's dis
count rate was followed last week by
the raising of the discount rate of the
Bank of France to three per cent. This
was very unusual act, but whether
it was inspired by financial or political
reasons, is a matter which does not af-
feet the market The point is that
everywhere in Europe, interest rates
are now high, and there is a super
abundance of capital in the United
states, where rates are low.
