Sly and SchlCy.

"Sly" when pronounced with the
"sweet German accent" to which Gen.
Scott once so pithily referred, becomes
"Schley." So articulated, we are forced
to suspect that our commodore has lost
himself to get away from the War. late
Strategy, Board, and. like Joe Bag
stock, is devlish Schley.
On what evidence the press can get
at, he is in front of Santiago. and has so
notified the Navy Department. That
central authority. therefore, is satisfied
that the other ''Schley.' one Cervera.
is inside the harbor. for the very good
reason that our Schley never said he
was not. On these convincing terms If

go on and map out the rest of the war
including operations in the Caroline and
Canary Islands. Cuba, Porto Rico. the
Philippines. and the general. aIl-round
waters of the Vastly deep.
By no means would we minimize The
probability that sly Schley is on the
outside and sly Cervera on the inside of
the interesting south Cuban bay. The
most encouraging sign that 1t is so, is
that it seems impossible to communi-
cate with our gallant commander on
the scene. That fact. perhaps, justifies
the opinion that he has taken a leaf
from the standard book of Dewey and
cut the cable behind him in order to be
able to do something. Consequently. the

TIcGson's Reward.

Tories aud traitors must have howl
ed with dark delight when they read In
the papers this morning that France
and Germany had asked the Hawaiian
government to explain its attitude OF
active friendliness to the United States
in the war with Spain. Spanish bond
holders, sugar Tories. and other do
mestic enemies Of the country were un-
successful in securing foreign interven-
ton against US, but they seem to have
accomplished it as to little Hawaii.
There is a point of interest in this con-
nection. 1t should not be forgotten
that, at the last. 1t was the Ireland
Vatican attempt at European interven-
ton in our affairs that more than any
thing else exasperated the American
people and precipitated the war. The
elements and interests behind that Dip
lomatic plot We're identically the same
that have always been and still are the
unrelenting enemies of Hawaiian an
nexation. We call attention to this
phase of the matter, because We be-
lieve that, instead of completely block
ing the Government in its necessary use
of the islands as a coaling and military
base, as Tories and traitors assuredly
hope, this latest threat of European in
tervention will bring prompt action for
annexation by Congress.
Whatever might have been said in
excuse or paliation for the course of
Americans who chose to espouse the
cause of satan and sugar against their
own fatherland, the menace to the
United States contained in the reported
diplomatic action of two foreign gov
ernments with regard to that of Ha-
waii, changes and intensifieS the situa-
tion and makes further obstruction a
political crime, and those guilty of it,
if any there should be, traitors to the
American people.
The time has passed for Mr.. McKin-
ley to hesitate in this matter. 1t is said
that, if Congress were not in session. he
would hoist Old Glory at Honolulu as a
military necessity. II there are not
enough patriots in Congress to relieve
him at once of the dilemma in which
he finds himself, it is due to the nation
which is supporting him so loyalty and
without thought of party, to do it any
way and be damned to Tories and trail
tors.

We trust that the French foreign office
will feel decent amount Of modification
on learning. beyond question, that the
steamer Lafayette which our country
permitted to run the blockade at Havana,
tried to unload a cargo of provisions for
the Spaniards. and only desisted on be-
ing warned that to do so would certainly
lead to the confiscation of the vessel by
the United States. 1t seems to us that
the government of President Faure ought
to discipline that steamship company for
its impudent violation of good faith and
Franco-Amerfcan amity.

The Spanish ambassador at Paris has
notified the French governemnt that the
destination of the Cadiz squadron is Ma
Mia. He was careful to explain that he
was instructed to make the announce
ment by the late ministry This gives
Foreign Minister Meline a chance TO say
that the statement is not convincing. as
the new Spanish cabinet may have

prevalent idea that a battle between
the American squadron and the Span
ish ships and forts at Santiago is likely
to occur within one or two days. has at
least leg to stand on. which our naval
operations in the Atlantic thus far have
not,
In venturing this admission We do
not desire in any way to criticise the
Strategy Board. because the Secretary
of the Navy has declared that 1t was
never susceptible of such a designa-
tion. We only mean that an admiral or
a commodore who pulls up the tele-
graph poles and cuts the wires in his
rear. is more apt to accomplish results
than if he. is compelled to sit twenty
four hours a day at ticker and ask
leave to steer straight ahead, only to
receive a disappointing response from

squadron were really to start for the
Philippines. it is common belief in Europe
that 1t could not be gotten ready for sea
under a week at best. Then it is hardly
possible that it could make the voyage
under forty days. BY that time 1t would
find Admiral Dewey re-enforced by the
Charleston and the Monterey and it
would only steam past Corregidor Island
to meet the fate of Montejo and his late
squadron. Altogether, the Manila story
is as fshy as the place where Dewey's
shells sent the Spanish ships.

FRIDAY, MAY q, 1898.
The Crisis I'm Spain.

Mr.. Mckinley is right in his desire to
secure immediate action all along the
line. Threatening clouds appear in
more than one direction. Tory treach-
cry has raised a question concerning
Hawaii that the most ordinary consid-
erations of patriotism would have pre-
vented. The domestic crisis in Spain
approaches a climax. When the crash
shall come, and it appears not many
days off, il is not unreasonable to eX-
pect that there may be foreign inter-
,>vention in the Iberian peninsula under
Sthe excuse that revolution and anarchy
anywhere in Europe would threaten a
condition of general war throughout
the continent.
The Spanish situation is indeed about
hopeless. Emperor Francis Joseph ad-
monishes the Queen Regent to fly. For
the present she refuses to heed the
warning. The ministry is at war with
itself, and is likely TO fall this week.
'Car,ist, Republican, and Weylerite ac-
- tivity increases. Famine within and
multiplied troubles abroad stare Spain
in the face. A desperate uprising has
occurred in the Caroline Islands, which
the Spanish authorities are helpless to
cope with. If We can get enough troops
to the Far East in time it may be n5c-
essary for US to take them in the in
terest of civilization.
All these dark events, current and i'm
pending, emphasize the necessity for
crushing action on our part. The time
may be close at hand when there will
be no recognized power in Madrid to
conduct war or make peace. Then
peace will be proposed by armed Eu-
rope, and we may have to choose be-
tween concession or a fight with the
combined nations of the Concert
As The Times has repeatedly repre-
sented, it is a rule. of International law
that only the territory of the defeated
belligerent in the actual possession of
the victorious one can be claimed by
the latter as indemnity at the termina-
ton of hostilities. Therefore, 1t would
be foolishness for US to burn any more
daylight. We must obtain occupation
of Cuba and Porto Rico and strain
every nerve to re-enforce Admiral Dew
ey, before it is all too late.
AS regards the last named duty. the
reported suggestion of Lieut.. Gen Scho-
field is a timely one and should be in
stantly acted upon. 1t is that all the
vessels of a class not fitted for a voy-
age to the Philippines, but able to
make Honolulu, should be impressed.
and troops, in addition to those sent
directly to Manila, should be rushed
over to Hawaii. Then the returning
transports from the former place could
coal and pick up the waiting forces at
Honolulu, thus saving three weeks on
the round trip. This appears to us to
be such an imperative necessity that
We earnestly hope President Mckinley
will cut the Gordian knot with his war
lord sword, and, at the same time, slap
the Tories in Congress with the fiat of
It, by hoisting the Stars and Stripes
ever the Hawaiian Islands forthwith.
