Alliance England Seeks With America IL
Moral. Not Political.

London, May 1S.-With Austria
and France urging the British Gov
ernment with desperate earnestness
to join the proposed combination
Of the great powers of Europe to
bring pressure to bear on the United
States and Spain with Lord
Salisbury and Mr. Balfour bluntly
refusing to enter the concert Of
nations; with Michael Davitt
savagely attacking the Anglo
American idea in the London
Times; with the whole British
press and public singing the song
union Of the Anglo Saxon peoples,
and with the press and politicians
of the rest of Europe raging against
Mr.. Chamberlain, the great Anglo
Saxon moral alliance still continues
to blossom out and in the face of it
whatever Spanish influence re-
mained in London has withered
and died.
Baron Russell, Of killown, Lord
Chief Justice of England, was
asked to-day by the Journal to send
a message to the American people
on the subject of the proposed
alliance, and what he said. in spite
Of the guarded language made
necessary by his exceedingly deli
cate position, shows clearly the
sort Of alliance which British
leaders are aiming ut.
Lord Russell's statement was
corrected in his own handwriting.
It is the opinion of the man in
England who, next to the Prime
Minister, must weigh his words
most carefully. It is as follows.
II am sorry that it is beyond my
power to send any message to the
American people on the subject Of
the war. You will understand that,
America being at war with another
country, we have to preserve the
strictest neutrality.

land, cannot in my official capacity
give utterance to single word, nor
can | In my private position act
freely. 1t may be that shall have
to adjudicate upon questions arising
out Of this unfortunate war.

SINGLE TAX FOR CUBA.

La Palma, CAL, May 5.-To the
Editor. It is gratifying to see that
single takers are wise, patriotic,
broad minded and philanthropic
enough not only to discuss the ef-
feet upon ourselves of making war
with Spain to rescue the starving
reconcentrados by aiding the Cuban
insurgents to achieve their inde-
pendence, but are also endeavoring
to teach our stupid or dishonest
would-be so-called statesmen the
rudiments Of equitable taxation to
create necessary extra war revenue
M seen in the st. Louis Memorial
to Congress.
II is proper that the plain people
should speak up; rs revenue meas
ures have become public scandals
and the soulless effrontry Of the
dominant class in proposing to ere
ate the extra war revenue by tax
ing necessities that will throw the
burden of the war upon the poor IL
IN insult to common sense. I'm
der the present system Of land ten.
ure, the effect will be to make the
landless poor Of the United States
pay for war with Spain to create
n republic in Cuba that will en-
hance the value Of lands held by
Spanish Dons and their assignees,
whose grants cover all the valleys
from mountain-top to mountain
top and from head waters to the
sen. so that when the victorious in
surgent army returns to pursuits
Of peace they will find their hard
won temporary apparent gain will
be continuous real loss in having
to pay higher rents.
Therefore no time should be lost
and no pains should be spared by
single takers to establish inter
course with and advise the leaders
Of CUBA Libre' that there can be
no escape from the industrial sla-
very which we now suffer, however
brilliant their success m,.y be, nm
less they insert as the basic princi-
pie Of their constitution that all
natural resources are the common

rnE rRHpiDArl0N or THE BANKERS.

The New England bankers who
are anxious to transfer their funds
to inland points for fear Of Span
ish invasion offer q ridiculous
spectacle Of cowardice and imbe-
cility. New England has as little
to fear from Spaniards as from
Martians.
There has not been any cry that
the women and children Of our
seaport towns be sent inland. Men
are not wringing their hands in
fear for the safety Of their wives
and young daughters. But the
banker scents danger afar for his
precious dollars. lie sees Spanish

CUBA AND PORTO RICO.

Washington, May 19.--ln re-
sponse to the demand for informa-
tion in regard to Cuba and Porto
Rico, the bureau Of foreign com.
merce. department Of state, to-day
issued n bulletin containing much
interesting information, drawn
from consular reports and other Of
fetal data, concerning the geogra-
ply, products, commerce, railways,
debts, cables, ETC., Of these islands.
II includes also detailed descrip-
tions Of all the large cities. II Is
pointed out That if the land suita-
BILE to the growth Of sugar cane was
devoted to that industry, Cubn
might supply the entire western
hemisphere with sugar. The isl
and already has produced in sin
gle year for export 100000 tons,
and its capabilities have been only
in the experimental stage. Al
though settled more than fifty
years before the United States.
Cuba still has 5000, 900 acres Of
primeval forests, including mahog-
any, red wood, ebony and many
other valuable woods. In n report
from Consul Hyatt, the richness of
the mineral deposits, about Santi-
ago de Cuba Is pointed out. Amer
lean companies with a combined
capital Of over $5, 600, 900, now op.
crate mines In this vicinity and
employ from 800 to 400 men,
shipping to the United States from
30, 600 to $4,000 tons Of iron ore
per month, most Of 1t going to
Bethlehem. Steelton, Sparrows'
Point and Pittsburg. These iron
ores are said to be among the rich
est in the world. Mr.. Hyatt be-
lieves that the old copper mines in
the same vicinity, which used Ia
turn out 80, 100000 worth of cop
ger ore annually for use IN the
United States, could be worked
with profit. The extent Of the to.
bacco and sugar industries are
given in detail, although these
have suffered seriously as u result
Of three years Of warfare. About
20, 900 Of the inhabitants are ordi-
narily engaged in the cultivation
Of tObaecO. The Cuban debt il
placed at $295, 100000 or about
1910 per inhsbitant.

The description of Porto Rico is
especially interesting in the account
of San Juan harbor. Il states TINT
the entrance to the harbor Ia one
of difficulty aud danger, particular
ly when n norther IL blowing. The
"boca," f" or entrance to the harbor,
is n mass Of seething, foaming wa
ter, and presents nh imposing spec
tacle. To see steamers of from 1G
to IL feet draft enter through this
seething "boca' is n sight to be re-
nembered, M the great waves lift
them up and seem about to hurl
them forward to destruction. San
Juan is described Ms n perfect spe-
cimen Of walled town, with moat
gates and battlements. The de-
scription of the various cities, both
in Cuba and Porto Rico, shows that
yellow fever and small pox are
everywhere prevalent, that the
streets rcek with filth That the wa-
ter supply IL poor and unusually
polluted, and that modern sanitary
methods are unknown.
