The senate committee on foreign rela-
lions has taken up the Maine investiga-
ton where the naval board left off, and
it is limited that some startling informa-
ton, bearing upon the cause of the eX-
source, has already been unearthed. If
this statement is verified the Maine Incl
dent is likely to be decidedly in evidence
in the report of the committee to be
presented to congress this week. 1t is
at all events not likely soon to lapse into
a remisniscence.

rather than Havana, in which event a
coaling station upon one or more Of the
group of three islands would be of in
finite Importance to our fleet. The re-
ported departure of the Spanish battle
ships from Havana to join the torpedo
fleet at San Juan adds strength to this
position, although it does not follow that
we must needs continue to engage the
enemy's navy on grounds of his own Sc
lection, contiguous to his base. of sup
plies.
If it be the purpose of Spain to aban-
don Cuba, it would seem that our occu-
patton and defense of the island and our
own coast line would furnish abundant
occupation for our navy; that such a
contingency would place it in strictly
defensive attitude, nearer to it's base of
supplies at Key West and Tortugas than
to station in the Danish West Indies.
This view would seem to be taken by
the opponents Of the purchase, though
their objections are based upon the
broader contention that territorial &C.
QUESTION beyond continental lines will
inevitably involve international entan-
clements.
A safer middle ground, If feasible,
would be the acquisition simply of
coaling station, similar to that we have
in Pearl harbor in the Hawaiian group,
without annexing territory not needed,
but requiring formidable defenses, and
avoiding the apprehended complications
with other nations that might follow an
nexation Of an entire group Of islands.

he does not hesitate to say so.

To further verify this statement Mr..
Trout made affidavit to its truthfulness
before Robert Z Hull, Jr., Notary Public.
The last decade of the nineteenth cen
tury has been marked by some of the
most important discoveries in the history
OF the world. None have done more to
benefit mankind than DR.. Williams Pink

effected by this wonderful remedy almost
equal the miracles OF old. Diseases long
supposed incurable have succumbed to
their potency. The paralyzed have
walked; the weak and ailing have
stepped from their beds we'll and strong.
The evidence is irrefutable. The fact
stands supreme that DR.. Williams Pink

on suffering humanity.

ally when we consider the strange dra-
matte interest of the circumstances and
conditions by which his laurels were
won by the sirdar. Besides being a
splendid soldier, he Is also a splendid
diplomatst. 1t must have required un-
usual talents to successfully carry out
the delicate mission up the Nile which
conducted him into the presence of
Major Marchand.
THE sirdar has recently expressed
the hope that the difficulties arising
from the presence of Major Marchand
may be within the power of diplomacy
to adjust. l am glad to say that up to
a certain point he has proved a true
prophet.
"This afternoon / received from the
French ambassador the information
that the French government has come
to the conclusion that the occupation of
Fashoda is of no sort of value, and that
they thought, in the circumstances,
that to persist in an occupation which
would only cost them money and do
HARM merely because some bad advisers
thought it might be disagreeable to an
unwelcome neighbor, would not show
the wisdom with which, as | think, the
French republic has been uniformly
guided.
"They have done what / believe every
government would have done in the
same position-resolved that the occu-
patton must cease. l must not be un-
derstood as saying that all causes of
controversy are removed. That is not
so. Doubtless there will be many dis
cussions between US, but a somewhat
acute and somewhat dangerous cause
of differences has been removed"
General Kitchener's reply, which was
modest and not important, gave un-
stinted praise to the British, Egyptian
and Soudanese troops. The sirdar said
he would indeed have been an incapable
leader if he had failed of victory with
such soldiers. He gave some details as
to the expenses of the expedition, dwell
ing with pride upon its cheapness and
in summing up the assets that re-
main," referred to 600 miles of railway
gunboats, a fotilla of sailing craft, and
(after a pause) the Soudan.

Evacuation of Fashoda.
London, Nov. 5.-General Kitchener
Is the lion of London Yesterday the
streets of the city were crowded with
people who wildly cheered the VIC
torious general on his triumphal prog
ress to the Guild Hall, where he re-
ceived the freedom of the city and was
presented with a sword of honor in
recognition of his defeat of the der
wishes at Omdurman. The presentation
speech was made by Lord Mayor Da-
vies and General Kitchener replied in
a modest speech of thanks.
The banquet given to General Kitch-
ener at the Mansion House last night
was exceptionally brilliant. A trophy
of British and Egyptian flags entwined
had been arranged above the lord may
or's seat. In all there were about $50
guests present, including all the cabi-
net ministers.
The lord mayor received his guest in
the grand salon. General Kitchener
was attired in the uniform of a major
general of the British army, with the
ribbon of the Osmanieh order. He was
greeted with tremendous cheering from
the assembled guests. The banquet,
appropriately, was served in the Egyp-
tian hall of the Mansion House.
The speakers were the Duke of Cam
bridge, Lord Rosebery, Admiral Newell
Salmon, Lord Lansdowne and the Mar
quis of Salisbury, the premier. There
was a feeling of expectancy through
out the speeches, and everything that
could be construed as an allusion to
war was jumped at by the assembly
with prolonged cheers. When Sir New
ell Salmon alluded to the prepared
ness of the navy" and Lord Lansdowne
to the readiness of the army" there
were prolonged outbursts of applause
The assembly greeted the rising OF
the Marquis of Salisbury to toast the
sirdar with nervous silence, as 1t had
been whispered that he had an import
ant and grave statement to make. His
statement was important, but it was
pacific, as he announced a settlement
of the chief difficulty with France.
The premier said in part
"No one can wonder at the vast en-
thusiasm by which the career of this
great soldier has been received, especi-
