was abundantly fulfilled that, in case emer-
gency comes in the Spanish situation, 1--WE
will not hear any more of North, South,
East or West, no more of Republicans,
Democrats or Populists; we will hear only
of Americans" The inspiring motive for
this action was the patriotic feeling of the
American people, but it was due in hardly
less degree to the confidence which the
country feels in the ability, prudence and
self-poise of President Mckinley in this
crisis.
While this appropriation is made for the
purpose of putting the country on a war
footing, it is the best possible guarantee of
peace, and there has been distinctly an
easier and more confident feeling since this
action was taken. To have Spain and the
world know that the United States is ready
to protect its honor if that honor is assailed,
and that the whole country is a unit in
support of this determination, is the best
peace measure that could be put forth
Ever since the Maine disaster occurred it
has been evident that, in as quiet way as
possible, every snip In the navy was being
made ready for service, and other precau-
tions were being taken. This appropria-
tion will be used, so far as may be deemed
necessary, for the purchase of new battle
ships and to strengthen our sea coast de-
fences.
Whether this apparently sudden action
has any meaning beyond that which ap-
pears on the surface remains to be seen.
1t may mean that the administration fore
sees that the result of the Maine enquiry may
be such as to call for decisive action by this
country, or i; may be that the President has
reached the conclusion that it is only ques-
tion of little time when it will be his duty to
recognize the independence of the Cubans.
In any case he has received the strongest
assurance of public confidence that could
be given to any man or any government in
such a crisis

A GnnrnntY Of Pence.

The present week has seen a rapid
march of events with regard to the stua-
tion and attitude of this country toward a
war with Spain. Monday morning few
of the leaders in both houses of Congress
met President Mckinley at the White
House, and after an hours consultation it
was decided to recommend to Congress an
appropriation of $50,O00,OO0 for national
defence. A bill for such an appropriation
was drawn and promptly presented in the
House, and on Tuesday it was passed by a
unanimous vote. The bill was debated for
four hours, but the debate was not for any
purpose of contention or for presenting dis
cordant views. On the contrary its only
object and result were to give large num-
Der of representatives chance warmly to
endorse the enactment and to express their
patriotic feeling. Not half the members
who wished could get chance to speak in
the time allowed for debate, and at the last
the time was literally apportioned by min
utes. After its enthusiastic passage by the
House the bill was sent at once to the Sen
ate and on Wednesday it was passed unan-
imously by that body without debate,
scarcely fifteen minutes being consumed in
voting the appropriation. At quarter of
four Wednesday afternoon the bill was a
law, having been signed by the presiding
officers of both houses and by the Presi-
dent. In both Senate and House party
lines were completely obliterated, Southern
Democrats and ex-Confederate officers vie
ing with Northern Republicans in their
eager desire to give the govern
ment the strongest possible support.

George II. Wilder, a well-known musi-
clan and flute soloist of Montpelier, was
taken yesterday to the state asylum for the
insane at Waterbury. He is insane from
the excessive use of intoxicating liquor
and drugs. Mr.. Wilder has filled engage
ments with some of the best known mu-
sical organizations in New England as
flute soloist. He travelled last year with
the Jessie Couthoui Concert company,
filling a weeks engagement at Keith's the
atres at Boston and New York. The ply
sicians who signed the papers for his com
mitment to the asylum are of the opinion
that his malady is not incurabe. Wilder
gained notoriety several years ago through
separation from his wife, handsome and
wealthy girl whom he married when he
was little more than a boy, and student
of music in Boston.

THE LATEST NEWS.
British Ships for the United
States.

A Conservative Member Of Parliament
Believes the Interests OF the Two
Countries are InsepRrabIY IntertwIned.
Hon. II. V. Duncombe, in the house of
commons, had intended to ask yesterday
if in the interests of all English speaking
peoples her maiesty's government would
consider the advisability of placing the ser
vices of the British fleet at the disposal of
the United States in the event of compli-
cations ensuing between the United States
and any foreign power, but it was decided
to postpone the question.
In an interview, later, Mr. Duncombe
said: after consultation with my friends,
| decided that the exact form of the ques-
tion made it inopportune to put it. 1t was
framed on account of the widely held
opinion in the house of commons that it is
high time the foreign powers should be
told in unmistakable terms that any blow
stauck at either Great Britain or the Unit
ed States was equally blow at the other.
81 was profoundly convinced of this to-
day. Many more members than | sup
posed would do so came to me in order to
say they heartily indorsed my question. 1
am convinced the government would have
desired to answer my proposed question
affirmatively and would have done so had
it not involved other consideration, be-
sides expressing what believe the present
government sincerely holds-that in the
face of foreign complications the interests
in the future of Great Britain and the
United States are inseparably intertwined.
"Today's expressions and Endorsement
we will eventuate as soon as we can frame
the question in the exact terms which
clearly express the feeling of the house of
commons-that any trouble threatening
the United States will be shared by Great
Britain"

Rutland Man May Have been Murdered.

The body of man was found about
half mile from the Fitchburg railroad at
Eagle bridge, N Y, Wednesday. An au-
topsy showed that the neck was broken
and the brain congested. The body vas
recognized yesterday by Patrick Waters of
Rutland as his son.
The young man left Rutland March l
for North Adams. He drew $40 from the
bank before he started, and must have
carried $50 with him. He had never been
i'll, was not subject to fits, and there was
no money on his person. A trainman saw
Waters's body Monday, but supposed the
man was drunk and made no investiga-
tion. 1t is believed at Eagle Bridge that
Waters was murdered and that the body
was carried into the field.

Became Violently Insane,

Ira B. Spalding became violently insane
Wednesday at Tunbridge and attempted
to shoot Charles Dean, his brother in-law.
He chased him with double barreled shot
gun to the railroad track, where Dean
boarded moving freight train and es-
capped. Spaiding then attempted to shoot
brakeman on the train. The charges in
the gun had been there since last summer
and failed to explode, otherwise both
Dean and the brakeman would have been
killed. Spalding was finally coaxed back
to his house by his wife. He was secured
and will be sent to the Vermont insane
asylum. He is contractor and builder,
has overworked, and had been suffering
with a violent headache for week.

Running a Post once Under DinicuIt, es

An interesting letter, showing a rather
anomalous condition of affairs as regards
postal matters, has been received by First
Assistant Postmaster General Heath from
Clara Il. Richards, the postmaster at Dyea,
Alaska. She transmits the complaint of
the president of a trading company, be-
cause she would not deliver the mails for
more than two persons TO any one indvid-
ual who might be waiting in line at the Of
fee window. Under date of Feb. "a Miss
Richards writes there is line several hun
dred feet long in front of the office all day,
and to stop whole line to wait for any
one person to call for list of names
amounting sometimes to 600 and even a
thousand from the outlying camps would
work great hardship on the general pub

or 80 cents worth to one person, as it is i'm
possible to keep supply on hand and pre-
vent spectators getting possession of them,
charging as high as % cents each.

England for America, France for Spain.

A Madrid despatch says: The presence
in Madrid of the Spanish ambassador to
France has started rumors to the effect that
the minister for foreign affairs is about to
resign. But this is denied in official cir
cles. 1t is said the visit of Senor Castillo
is connected with the governments nego-
tiations to obtain the support of France
and Russia, which is favored by all parties.
There is general feeling that in the event
of war the racial and commercial interests
of Great Britain would impel her to side
with the United States. 1t is understood
that as the first effect of the understanding
with France, Spain will receive financial
assistance in order to avert her national
bankruptcy.

Says President VIII Recognize the In
dependence of Cuba.

- The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Record, who is private secretary to
Congressman Barrett, telegraphs: "Presi-
dent Mckinley is going to recognize the
independence Of Cuba. 1t may be matter
of days or of weeks, but it is surely com
ing. He believes that Spain will not
strongly resent it. Other people here are
confident that Spain will declare war in
that event. This she has threatened to do
over and over again. If she does not it
will only be because her resources are so
depleted that she recognizes the futility of
such an act Before summer the Cnban
question will have been settled by our ac-
tion either by the withdrawal of Spain
or by an armed issue between this country
and Spain.
