Spanish Responsibility.

In commenting on Spa us RESPONSE
bility for the Maine dissste', the Army
and Navy Journal says; The possible
ty of the loss of the Maine having been
brought about by other causes than &C
cident has set ahoat speculation as to
the responsibility of Spain in the
premises, and in this connection it has
been asserted by gentlemen skilled in
international law that unless the ex-
plosiOn can be shown to have been
caused by the agents of the Spanish
government that nation cannot be held
responsible for the Injury suffered.
Fortunately for our state of civiliza-
ton, there is no precedent OF q public
vessel of war having been designedly
blown Up in time of peace while visit
ing foreign harbor. In all of the dis
subject, the principle underlying the
responsibility of a nation fO- the safety
of vessel of war visiting its waters
seems to have been lost sight of.
It is principle of international law
tn at a ship of war admitted TO a foreign
port is accorded the privilege of extra
territoriality. While ordip arily this
consists simply of immunity from local
Jurisdiction yet by reason of the prin-
ciples unde lying the privilege of ex-
tra-territoriality such vessel .of war is
iuviolability which surrounds the per-
son of an ambassador and his hotel.
1t becomes therefore the duty of the
authorities responsible for the gov
e 'nment of the harbor visited by a
foreign public vessels to use due
diligence that such vessel is not in
jured by any violence of the Inhabitants
or by any hidden means of injury un-
known to such government, such as
submarine mines, torpedoes, or other
concealed means of defense. And this
duty is intensified to the highest de-
gree when the fact is taken into con-
sideration that's foreign public vessels
of war being subject to the port
regulations must anchor weere directed
by the local authorities.
1t is we'll established fact that q
government is liable for damages to
alien residents of country by mob
which by due diligence it could have
depressed. Italy not long ago wss in
Identified by the United States for the
injury done to her citizens by a mob in
New Orleans. In 1857 the congress OF
the United States acceded to the de-
mand of Spain for an indemnify for
losses us'ained by the consul of Spain
and other persons residing at New Or
leans or at Key West in the year 1851
by the violence of Individuals arising
out of the intelligence then recently
received at those places of the execu-
ton of certain persons at Havana, in
Cuba, by the Spanish authorities Of
that island.
Should it be establishes that the
Maine was blown up either through
design or want Of due diligence on the
part of the authorities at Havana
Spain's responsibility is complete and
justifies the United States to resort to
drastic measures of redress.

The Correct CaDer.

A G. H. engineer receives thirty
days credit for being real good. He
saw big gang of sheep on the track
ahead, and instead of ''opeu
ing rher ups and letting his en-.
CINE 60 Gallagher through those sheep,
he stopped, got down off his perch and
gentle shoC-ed those ST eep away as
though he had been a woman shoe ing
a hen off her nest by waving her apron
at it. The superintendent animad-
verts, as it were, upon this perform
auce as worthy OF all emulation, and
posts his opinion where all the bows
will read it. The order Of the day now
on the G. II. will be for all trains to
stop approaching stock on the track
and if the pc sky critters cannot be
shco'ed off, a dead man will be set in
the right of way,a blrc and fall hitch
ed TO the engine and the stock, and the
latter pulled off the track without loss
of life and the stock or to any one on
the train.

IT seems that the men who have
been fighting the republican party dur
ing its entire existence upon the
ground that its tariff policy was not q
proper one are now cOnceding that il
10, and has been from the first, right.
Four frenzied appeals to the people as
against the republican party have been
issued during the present month, that
of ex-Csndidate Bryan, followed by
those of the three party leaders who
are striving to uni.e the elements OF
national oiscord in his support, yet not
one of them mentions as an argument
against the republicans this great
subject which has been its leading
principle and which today shares in
its. estimation an equal honor with
sound money. Since these men now
admit by their silence that the repub-
lican party ever since its existence has
been right in its fight for this great
principle of protection and that
they have been wrong in their
fight against it, is it not possible that
the views OF it's leaders on the money
question are entitled to some con-
sideratiOn as agalnsGthOse If the men
Who thus admit the unsOundness of
heir views on an equally important
ubject in the past?

THE WHEREF vRENESS THEREOF

The determinat.l of SENATOR Mills
to retire from the senatorial race in
this state will create u political sensa-
tion in Texas today, and his letter, as
publish he'd In The POST this morning.
will be read everywhere with profound
interest. The SENATOR'S long service
at Washing ton and his recognized
ability and aggressiveness have made
him one of the best known men in the
public life of the nation. 1t has, how
ever, been suspec ed for some time past
that he was not in strict accord with
the majority sentiment of his party
in this state on two or three of the
great overs hadowing Issues of the day
aud his declina,ion to again Offer for
the senate was probably the wisest
course he could have pursued under
the circumstances. Senators Mills
services 10 his party and his state in
the past will he properly remembered
and appreciated by those who are IA
piliar with his record.-Post.

Cubans Growing More Active.

An Havana cable to the Sun saws:
The correspondent of the Sun at
Puerto Pacifico city writes the dry sea-
son campaign in that province in clos
ing with great activity on the part OF
the Cubans.
News from Santiago de Cuba is favor
able to Cubans. Gen. Pando has lost
5000 soldiers in his fruitless endeayors
to fortify the entrance of the Cauto
river.
The situation of the Spanish troops
in the east is terrible. The heat is in
tense there and besides the losses OF
the Spaoish troops in their engage
ments with the Cubsns, yellow fever
and dysentery are making havoc 10
their ranks. There are few Spanish
soldiers'1n good health. Moreover,
Pando has utterly failed in his attempt
to raise troops among the patives. The
hatred against Spain is 80 deep no man
is willing to wear the Spanish uniform,
no IN liter how large the pay that Gen.
Psndo offers him.
Gen. Jesus Rab, indignant over the
reports circulated by the Spaniards tn at
he was about to accept bride or eurren-
der and embrace autonomy, gathered
his forces near Barrsncos on Feb. 20,
and fiercely attacked Spanish col
umn going to Bayamo. The Spaniards,
Gus in the whole province and they
generally encounter the Cubsns there,
were utterly surprised by the sudden
attack. They had scarcely time to pre-
pare to repel with their bayonets the
machine charge of Gen. Rabi. The
fight was sharp and decisive. Over
3OO Spaoiards were killed. AMI the rest
OF the column was dispersed.
Gen. Rabi secured a booty of 400
mules loaded with provisions and am.
munlt on. He wrote letter after the
battle to Gen. Pando, thanking him
for the important convoy he had sent
to Bayamo, and the opportunity he
had given him to capture it.
