AN ABSURD CLAIM.

The Cologne Gazette" insists that it
upon the eventual government in the
Philippines for redress for German in
terests injured at Manila by the closing
of the port and the locking up of the
an extravagant assertion of the power
Of a nation to act as collecting agent
for its merchants in foreign parts, and
a complete putting aside Of the doctrine
that he who goes away from home to
do business assumes the risk of inter-
ruption by war in the strange locality.
To carry out the assertion to its log
ical conclusion, no nation could redress
it's wrongs or compel another to do it
justice for fear of doing injury to the
business of some neutral located in the
enemy's country. According to the
'Gazette's' statement, Germany pro-
poses to go one step beyond any taken
as yet, and look to a government un-
born for redress of grievances having
their origin prior to the new govern
ment coming into being.
Germany may we'll enough hold Spain
bound to preserve the peace and an
open port at Manila. Indeed, if the
Philippines are returned to Spain, we
may expect to see Germany pressing
the latter hard. with claims it will be
impossible for her to meet. Then may
follow a demonstration and a possible
seizure Of the islands. But the
United States is now in such a position
as to interpose in such program, since
her own title leaves her in the Philip
pines for such a time that German
pretension will grow moldy upon the
shelf.
The right of nation to protect and
enforce the claims of its subjects
abroad against a foreign Power will
not at this late day, and in this COM
mercia1 age, be denied, though it is a
matter that presents a question with
two sides. But beyond that. interna-
tional law codes have not yet settled
that a nation may go. Suppose, for
a moment that the contention alleged
to be entertained by Germany is sound,
the Emperor could come down hand
and foot upon the new government of
Cuba, whatever 1t may be, to meet
all the damages individual Germans
have suffered because of the years Of
struggle between the insurgents and
the Spanish in the fated isle.

All DUN DISCHARGED.
Louisa Straub Goes Back ON Her
Former Statement.

The examination Of All Dun for bat
terry on Louisa Stroud took place yes
terday.
1t is the case published in the Rec
rd-Union'; the girl was employed
with her sister in the Chinaman's res
taurant. and he was charged with hav-
ing attempted to take liberties with
her.
The girl had sworn to the complaint
and told her story to the CITY Attorney.
When she went on the stand, however,
she denied having made such state
ments, and said the Chinaman had
only caught hold Of her dress, and she
told him to stop.
Officer Healy testified that he was in
formed that the girl was working in
the Chinese restaurant. He went to
see about it, and Louisa told him that
she was Ii years old, and her sister
told him that she was II or IS years
old. He took her to the Childrens Day
Home, as he thought the restaurant
was no place for her. She slept all
day, and appeared to the woman in
charge to have been drugged. The girl
told him that the Chinaman had at
tempted liberties with her.
Ida Stroup testified that since they
had worked in the place the Chinese
there had never attempted any liber-
ties with them, and they had no reason
for complaint
The complaint was dismissed. The
court thought that the testimony
showed that there was no reflection on
the character of the girls, but that the
City Attorney and Officer Healy had
not clearly understood what the
younger one had told them.
AS an offset to this, however, Ser
geant McManus, who was not called as
witness, stated that when he took
Louisa up to identify the Chinaman she
hung back and was afraid to enter the
kitchen, and 1t was only on his assur-
ance that he would not allow her to be

It is stated that Senator Foraker,
who made such a gallant fight for the
recognition, Of the so-called Cuban Re
public, now frankly confesses that the
Judgment of President Mckinley was
best. and that he is glad that his own
contention did not meet with success.
That is probably the thought of 70 per
cent. of the men who opposed the Pres
ident's policy, but only the few have
the courage to frankly confess it, as
Senator Foraker has done. The fact is,
the President was better advised as to
the statesmen who battled against his
refusal to lend himself to the recogni-
ton plan.

The cruelty of the Chicago press is
simply monstrous. The newspaper ac-
count runs that the ST. Louis girl who
kissed Lieutenant Hobson Tip toed, -
how she managed it, for then her head
must have been in the second story.
But st. Louis journal, usually grave
and deliberate, retorts that had it been
a Chicago girl she never could have
achieved the feat, since her feet would
have prevented her getting anywhere
near the hero. These Western journal
istic amenities are delightful.

A DIPLOMATIC MISFORTUNE,

The retirement of the Spanish Min
lister de LONE is a misfortune" and
not a crime. International usage
permits an ambassador at any court to
say what he pleases, but if he is
caught at saying anything unpleasant
about the Government to which he is
sent, he must walk the plank
Ministers and ambassadors in CIV
ing to their own courts the true in
wardness of the sayings and doings of
men in office, constantly make harsh
comments, which if published, involve
them in trouble. So their correspon-
dence goes into the secret archives.
One of the American Ministers at the
German Court, several years ago,
wrote some severe comments on the
policy of the German Government. The
American Secretary of State carelessly
allowed his letter to be published. The
German Court growled, but did not
ask for the recall of the Minister, as it
believed that the American Foreign
Office did not know any better than to
publish it.
Back in the "forties," Mr. Anthony
Ten Eyke, American representative
here lost his temper, and wrote a letter
to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, in which
Kamehameha III was referred to in
this way:
Should a monkey wear a crown,
must we tremble at his frown," etc.
After a careful examination the au-
thorship was discovered. The matter
was put before the Washington Gov
eminent, and Mr.. Ten Eyke was recall

annals of the Islands at that time. The

pages of American diplomacy in Ha-

GENERAL ROBERT E. LEE.

The anniversary of the birthday of
Gen. Robert E. Lee, on the 18th day of
January, was celebrated with more than
the usual enthusiasm throughout the
Southland. In many places, Northern
men and war veterans attended the
ceremonies. AS the years pass, and the
passions expire, the men and women of
the North have more consideration,
and even sympathy for many millions
of people Of their own race, who were
reduced to poverty, in defending a
cause which they believed TO be right.
Those killed on the battle field suffered
the least. The sufferers were and are
the survivors, who were left helpless
in the general wreck; the women who
for near 80 years have struggled under
new conditions; the men who were left
without pensions, after serving in the
armies.
The people who have made such a
sacrifice, even if in the wrong, would
naturally commemorate the life of
their great leader The living genera
ton, and the one that succeeds it, in
the great Southland will not give up
their beliefs in State rights, though the
sword has forced them to submit. They
will retain it, not however, as a living
principle, but as dear and sacred SEN
!. timent, which has cost them so much
blood and treasure. Few, if any of
them, would now permit the restora-
ton of slavery. Few if any, would
take up arms again for even State
rights. 1t is the awful sacrifice which
was made, that places before them,
General Lee as the ideal hero. In wor-
shipping his memory, they get some
compensation for their vast and pitt
able misfortunes.
The Southerners were conquered into
submission, justly as the North be-
lieves, on the ground that there was no
power of secession in the Federal Con-
stitution. Yet the State of New York
in ratifying the Constitution in 1887,
declared that: '"The powers of the
Government may be reassumed by the
people whatsoever it shall become ne
cessary for their happiness" But this
State sent into the field during the
Civil war, a vast army to enforce the
contrary doctrine Seventy years of
thought and experience made. the
Northern people accept the doctrine of
the inviolability of the Union.
But the moral of it all was, that
doctrines must be established and held
by the bayonet The Right can only
hold it's own when it carries the big
gest club.
Even Grant, the great general on the
Union side, in his later days showed
an increasing and warm respect for the
men whom he had defeated, for he
knew that he had established the law,
not by reason or moral force, but by
sword and artillery. But he did not
regret it.
