AGREED TO VOTE TODAY,
Debate in the Senate on the Nicurn-
qua Canal BSII

After The Stars report of the Senate
proceedings was closed yesterday after
noon, Mr., Harris of Kansas continued his
speech He said he considered the Panama
canal as entirely impracticable He SUM-
ported Mr.. Berrys amendment relieving
the bill of its bond provisions, saving it
would greatly improve the measure
The Clayton-Bulwer treaty formed the
basis of brief speech by Mr. Money. He
advocated delay in order TO afford oppor-
tunity for negotiation looking to the abro-
CATION of the treaty. Mr.. Money said we
should at least notify Great Britain that
we desire modification of the treaty as a
first step In this connection Mr.. Money
referred TO the entente cordiaie existing be
tween this country and England, saving
that he wanted to see the two natjons
brought even closer together than now
Hence the Importance and propriety of
deanng fa1rly and courteouSly with Great
Britain in this important matter
Mr.. Bacon gave notice of an amendment
OF the BILL providing that work should not
be begun on the canal under the bill until
the government of Nicaragua should con-
sent to modification of the treaty grant
ing title to the United States in perpetuitv
to the canal right of way, and also elimi-
mating articles J3 and 81 of the concession
from that document.
Mr.. Stewart advocated the bill as a most
important step in the progress of The COM
merce of the %orld and urged senaFors IN
accept it as 1t stands.
Replying to Mr.. Money, Mr. Morgan said
he had never claimed that the CLAYTON
Bulwer treaty was not in full force ieny-
ing the assertion imputed to him that tha [
treaty had vanished into thin air. He had

American Machinery in German

In a report to the State Department, de-
scriptive of the rapid increase of the Amer
lean trade with Germany in iron and steel
goods, Commercial Agent Stern, at Bam-
berg, predicts that the United States will
soon surpass England in the value Of ex-
ports of machinery to Germany. The pres
ent year shows even a falling off in the
case of England, while the imports of
American machines show an increase of rs
per cent over last years figures. In 1895
the imports of the United States of these
goods into Germany did not amount to as
much as the sixth part of the amount of
the English imports, while today they are
equal to 70 per cent of the latter.

But it was not, Mr.. Editor, for
this sort of thing that 1 started out
to write, but rather of a tragic
scene of weakness and folly seen
and described by Mr.. Kipling
when in Buffalo, and of that
scene he writes. ..
"Tben, recanting previous opini-
ons, L became a probibitionist.
Better it is that man should 90
without his beer in public places
and content himself with swear
ing at the narrow-mindedness
of the majority; better it is to
poison the inside with very vile
temperance drinks, and to buy
larger furtively at the back doors,
than to bring temptation to the
lips of young fools such as the
four L had seen. 1 understand
now why the preachers rage
against drink. L have said There
is no harm in it, taken moderate
ly;' and yet my own demand for
beer helped directly to send these
two girls Keeling down the dark
street to-God knows what end.
Ii liquor is worth drinking, it
is worth taking little trouble to
come at, such trouble az a man
will undergo to compass his own
desires. 1t is not good that
we should let it lie before
the eyes OF children, and 1 have
been fool in writing to the con-
trsry."
l am not sure that the parsons,
like the rect Of US, don't do as
much mischief as good, but, when
they sometimes, like the writer
and author OF the above words tell
us, I've that are strong ought to
bear the infirmities Of the weak,
and not to please ourselves" one
is inclined to think they may be
right. .rt ,go ...i i y ="

The Fate of the Spanish Armada.

The June Century contains an article
on ''The Spanish Armada" by William
Frederic Tilton, with an introduction by
Captain Alfred 7. Mahan. Captain Ma
han says:
The fate of the Spanish Armada stands
conspicuous among the great catastrophes
of war narrated by history. According to
the estimate of the Spanish Captain Duro,
who has made a close study of the records
IN MS own country, ont Of one hundred
and thirty sail of which the Armada was
composed when it left Lisbon on May 80,
13SS, sixty three were lost. OF these only
nine fell in battle or in immediate conse-
quence thereof, although the injuries re-
celved in the various actions in the Chan
mel doubtless contributed to the ultimate
shlpwreck of many. Nineteen were cast
away on the Scottish and Irish coasts;
thirty five disappeared altogether. OF
these FAST. it is possible that some of the
smaller classes OF vessels may have reach
ed port, and that the fact passed unnoted;
but of the forty-odd larger vessels which
never returned, the probability is that
those whose fate is unknown persisted at
sea.

Agricultural Statistics.

The May returns to the statistician of
the department Of agriculture at Washing
ton show the average in winter wheat
to be 5. I per cent. greater than the acre
age last year, the comparison being not
with the acreage harvested in 1897, but
with that sown in 1896. While there is
an increase of % per cent. in Kansas,
more or less marked increase in every
eastern and every southern State and
some inc rease also Oh the Pacific coast,
the large expansion thus indicated is to
some extent offset by decrease of per
cent in Indiana, three per cent. in Ohio,
80 per cent. in Iowa, IS per cent. in
Missouri and 16 per cent. in Illinois. The
reduction in area in these last three
named States is due to the fact that the
fall of 1896 was one of the finest seeding
seasons ever known, whereas that of 1897
was one of the most unfavorable. The

MPLE OF ENGLAND.

Few persons not con versant with mar
inc matters have had any appreciation of
the necessity of these coaling stations to
the United States until the present war
forced the matter upon their attention in
striking manner. A cruiser or battle
ship with a coal capacity necessary to carry
her 5000 miles, steaming at speed of ten
knots an hour, will exhaust her coal in
less than 1000 miles by do" bling her speed.
One OF the greatest arguments in favor of
our possession of the Hawaiian Islands is
that with a supply of coal we'll guarded in
Pearl Harbor, our warships and merchant
men will be enabled to cross the Pacific at
maximum speed. Recent events have
made so clear what an advantage this
would be to us that it is unnecessary to
dwell upon it.
England has thoroughly realized the
importance of such harbors of refuge as
bases of supply. She has established for
| titled coaling stations all around the world
i'll the pathways of commerce. No matter
what power of the world should engage
her III war, she would not be handicapped
in her operations by want of coal. A list
OF England's coaling fortified stations
VIII, L am sure, amaze those who have
never given any consideration to the
Strength of nations in this particular. 1t
| has been we'll said that the Mediterranean
! is nothing more than an English lake.
Her fortified coaling stations at Gibral-
tar, Malta and Cyprus are what make it
that in reality. No nation of Europe
could hope to compete with England in
the Mediterranean. England commands
the entrance to the Suez Canal, and her
coaling stations at the entrance to the Red
Sea and at Sokrata Island, at the mouth of
that sea, make her also the mistress of
those waters. The public will recall the
great ostentation with which the German
fleet under Prince Henry left for Asiatic
waters several months ago. The fleet was
obliged to coal at English coaling stations
three times on its way to its destination,
and if England were to refuse to furnish
Germany with coal to- morrow Prince Hen
rvs fleet would never be able to get back.
England has a number of coaling stations
off the east coast of Africa, and in the
Arabian Sea. They are the Island of
Mauritius off Madagascar, Cape Colony,
Beluchistan, Bombay, Colombia, Ceylon
and Calcutta. In the China Sea England
has we'll fortified coaling station at
Singapore. She has also recently acquired
coaling station in Chinese territory, OPP
posite the Island of Formosa. She has an
excellent coaling station on the south side

of the Church to the temporal power.
His final great endeavor was to secure a
general council Of Christendom, to depose
the pope and reform the Church.
On account of the fierceness of his re-
forming zeal, he has been accused of
narrowness; but he was lover of art and
music as well as of philosophy; he purchased
the Laurentian library for his convent;
men of genius, including Michael Angelo,
were his friends and disciples. Little
children loved him. His letters to his
friends are full of beauty and sweetness.
His heart was as tender as his mind was
magnanimous. He was as gentle as he
was fearless. The homely features of his
portrait by Fra Bartolommeo are full of
benignity. Rev, j. F. c. Sawyer in the

ARGUMENT FOR ALLIANCE.
Coming over to the west coast of Amer

supplied with coal at Vancouver Her
possessions OF the Falkland Islands, where
she has strong Notifications and plenty of
coal, gives her practically the command of
the Straits of Magellan. st. Helena and
Ascension Island, midway between the
coast of Brazil and the coast of Africa,
are hers, and they are also fortified and
coaled. On the west coast of Africa she
has Bathurst, Senegambia and Mon1ovia.
In the Caribbean Sea we find her in pos
session Of fortified coaling stations at
Trinidad, Barbados, Jamaica and Belixel,
Off the coast of Panama. Off the Atlantic
coast, about opposite the City of Charles
ton, she has the Island of Bermuda. which
has been recently very strongly fortified,
and where she has enough coal to supply
one of her largest fleets for considerable
time. 10 the north of us S he has coaling
stations and forts at Halifax and Quebec.
The extent and tie strength of her possess
sions are very wonderful when YOU come
to study them.
'1t is fact not generally known that
, England and the United States possess
nearly 80 per cent. of the coal of the world.
The only other great coal fields outside of
these countries are those in China If
England and the United States were to
reach an understanding, therefore, that
when either one or the other was serious
ly threatened coal would be made contra
band of war, they would have no need tG
be in fear of any great danger from any
one, or from all, of the remaining great
powers of the earth combined. 1t looks
very much as if the present war between
the United States and Spain would result
in some such understanding even if there
is no actual alliance Washington
