The Post assumes that the whole country,
outside of its own office, is aching for war,
whereas the chief call to arms is in the
yellow journals printed on the Posts own

scold the country because these decadent
newspapers are an offense in it's nostrils,

NO OFFER TO LOAN SHIPS.
Mr.. CurzOn Replies to Michael Dnvitt
ia the Commons.

LONDON, March 14.-In the House of
Commons to-day the parliamentary secre-
tary for the Foreign Office, Mr.. Curzon, re-
plying to Michael Davitt, anti-Parnellite,
who asked the government whether Great
Britain had offered to lend men of war to
the United States in the event of a conflict
between the United States and European
power, said the government had not made
such an offer. In answering series of
questions which Mr.. Davitt put, with the
view of eliciting whether there have been
any negotiations for an alliance between
Great Britain and the United States. or
whether Great Britain had offered to me-
date in the Cuban crisis, Mr.. Curzon said
these ques lions were of such a nature that
it was inexpedient to reply to them.
Mr.. Curzon's reply that Mr.. Davitt's
questions were inopportune was received
with loud cries of Hear! heart" from the
Unionist benches.
Mr.. DaVitt, in an interview on the subject
satd Il put the question as TO the ships
because the subject was not proceeded
with last week. l wanted to elicit the truth
L knew, Of course, that the statement made
to the effect that war ships would possibly
be loaned was as absurd as the rumored al
lance or rapprOchement, and L received ex-
actly the answer l expected. Mr.. Curzon
is too clever a diplomat to give an answer
which would dispel the idea that an Ameri-
can alliance is on the taps, as of course 1t
never will be- Mr.. Curzon knows it. but it

PROMPT AND POSITIVE ACTION.

1t must be evident that it is the pur-
pose of the Spanish government to cause as
long delay as is possible over the con-
troversy concerning the cause of the sink
ing of the Maine. Its commissioners who
CATION have made haste to send their report
to Madrid. OF course Spain's commission
holds that the sinking of the Maine was
the result of internal causes, and doubtless
plausible reasons will be given to sustain
that conclusion-sufilciently plausible to
furnish the Spanish government with pre-
text for a lengthy diplomatic correspond
ence The general opinion, not only in this
country, but in intelligent circles in Eu-
rope, is that the war ship was sunk by an
outside agency for which the Spanish gov
eminent is responsible, whether cognizant
of it or not. If the Spanish government can
involve our government in such a contro-
versy they expect to draw our attention
away from the much more important topic
the paciflcation of Cuba and the ending
of Spanish domination that island. Thus
the sinking of the Maine, which is but an
incident, and an incident which should has
ten action, may be used as a pretext to
postpone the carrying out of the purpose of
bringing peace to Cuba.
There is every reason to believe that the
people of this country would be very i'm
patient If the President should allow him.
self to be involved in the Spanish scheme of
delay. This is due to the fact that the
country believes that Spain, directly or in
directly, is responsible for the sinking of
the Maine, and that the report of the board
of inquiry will SO find. The general opin-
ion is that the President should act upon
the theory that the report of the board is
authoritative and that the demand made
upon Spain should be in the form of an I'LL
timatum which would rule out protracted
diplomatic correspondence, which might
continue for months, while the distressing
conditions in Cuba would be unchanged.
Public opinion in regard to the misrule of
Spain in Cuba has been greatly modified
during the past few weeks. The belief is
general that Spain cannot carry out its
scheme Of autonomy and that the present
distressing conditions will continue until
Spain leaves the island to itself With this
belief, the country expects that the Presi-
dent and Congress viii take steps that will
put an end to Spanish misrule and cruelty
il Cuba. What course shall be pursued to
insure that result is for the President and
Congress to determine; but nothing short of
positive and not long delayed action will
satisfy the American people.

OUR WAR sCAREs.

The United States has had three wars,
the history of which is familiar to most
reading people, but our more numerous war
scares are not so we'll remembered. France
has given us three war scares, but the first
is best remembered because 1t was the
most dangerous. 1t was while Washington
was President. The French Republic, which
succeeded monarchy, wished the sympathy
and support OF this government, and sent
Genet hither to form an offensive and de-
fensive alliance between France and the
United States, which would have embroiled
us with ali the foes of the former. So en-
thusiastic a reception was given to Minis
ter Genet that he seemed to imagine he
could ignore Washington and do whatever
he chose. He fitted out privateers in our
ports, which seized British merchant ves-
sells which were confiscated by French con-
suls in this country Notwithstanding the
neutrality proclamation of this govern
ment. 1t was only the firmness of Wash
ington, whose demand for the recall of
Genet was complied with, that saved us
from war with England at that time.
Washington was denounced as a traitor
and charged with a purpose to Anglicise
the United States. A second scare with
France was caused by the delay of the
French government in making compensa-
ton for American ships seized by Napoleon
in French ports. This controversy dragged
along until the second term of General
Jackson was near it's end. when he de-
manded reparation. War was so near that
diplomatic relations were suspended for a
time, but through the mediation of Great
Britain reparation was made to the govern
ment though the government has not yet
settled with the heirs of those who lost
their vessels. The interference of the second
Napoleon in Mexico during the war for the
Union greatly exasperated our people, but
nothing could be done until the rebellion
had been crushed. When the war was over
an emphatic demand was made for the
Withdrawal of the French from Mexico
The prompt compliance of Napoleon
averted war.
The United States has been on the verge
of war with Great Britain several times
since the war Of 1872. The most ominous
of these scares was that resulting from
the dispute over the boundary in Oregon.
There was a great deal of war talk Eff
ty-four forty or fight was the slogan Of
the Democrats in the Polk campaign of
1874, but in 1876 the Polk administration
made a treaty which recognized the 10th
degree as the boundary, and again war was
averted. The claims of citizens of the
United States for ships and property de-
stroyed by the Anglo-Confederate cruisers
brought us very near war, but it was
averted by the firm but conciliatory policy
of General Grant, which eliminated in an
award of s155O0OOO. which Great Britain
paid, The Venezuela controversy is too re-
cent TO need explanation.
SO long as Spain held the mouth of the
Mississippi river and until it relinquished
its hold on Florida we were not without
rumors of war with that government. Since
Spain left the mainland Cuba has been the
fertile source of war rumors. The success

Look here, what is to follow if that New
York doctor is found guilty of mansaughter
because he gave baby too strong medi-
cine? 1t opens the way to alarming posi-
bilities for the medical fraternity. Here
tofore it has been the custom of friends
and relatives of the departed to piously
lay the responsibility of their loss upon
Providence; or, if they have a secret belief
that the physicians treatment was not
wise, they have only ventured to whisper
their suspicious, knowing that they could
get no support for their views from other
doctors. For it has been the agreeable Gus
tom Of doctors from time immemoral to
stand by each other in such matters. When
it came to malpractice suits they were a
band of brothers Outside of legal possi-
bilities they are by no means considerable Of
each other. 1t is a we'll known character
istic of this profession that it's members
delight to roast" one another-when the
other is not by. In no other profession are
the members so ready to acknowledge the
shortcomings of the other fellows But
when it comes to offering legal testimony
against them--that's another thing. If a
doctor is a member of the right "schoop'
and any presuming patient or friend of a
deceased patient dares to say he hasn't
for his mistake, his brethren will rise up
as one man and declare that his prescrip-
lions were justified by the diagnosis. And
the patient, or the friend of the deceased
patient, has his trouble for nothing and the
costs to pay. But already more than one
doctor has been found to say that the medi-
cine prescribed by their fellow practitioner
for the six-weeks' old infant was enough
to kill a man, If not horse. They haven't
said it in court, to be sure, and there may
be reckless persons willing to wager that
they will not, but they have at least done
enough to cause the arrest. If a stop isn't
put to this case what is to become of poor
doctors who have never before had TO
answer to anyone, but will now be in dam
ger of having to tell in court how they
came to let it happen every time a patient
dies, and of having their treatment chal-
lenged by other doctors? Really, there
should be a concerted movement in the pro-
fession to rescue the New York doctor be-
fore the proceeding goes further.

Hurry order on "a Big Gun.

NEW YORK, March 4.-A hurry order

to-day from Washington for six-inch gun
to be sent Immediately to San Francisco.
The gun is a large rapid-fire breech-loading
rifle which has been on the receiving ship
Vermont. The work of transferring the gun
commenced at once. The officers at the
navy yard were reticent to what the gun
was needed for at San Francisco, but it was
reported that there is something wrong
with one of the guns Of the cruiser Phila-
delphia and this gun is intended to replace
it. The gun will go by, rail direct to Mare
Island navy yard.

United States and Spain near to war. The
instruction which began in 1868 was
constant source of irritation. The notorious
virginius affair in 1913 came very near
bringing on a collision. The Virginius,
under the flag of the United States. was
seized near Jamaica on the assumption
that she was bearing aid to the Cuban in
surgents. Several of the passengers were
shot and more would have been executed
if. the Madrid government had not issued
orders to it's officials in Cuba to desist. The
people Of this country were very indignant
and war seemed imminent. 1t is the remem-
brance of troubles with Spain regarding
Cuba which has led the people of this coun-

to abandon it's claim upon that island.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, March 14.-Prep-

Repeating Arms Company's factory, in this
city, that indicate the factory will be set
running twenty-four hours day at once.
The officials of the company maintain
silence about their plans and will not adj
nit that new orders have been received,
but reports are current that the govern
ment has placed big demand for large
additional order of Lee rifles for the navy
with the Winchester Company and that
ammunition is also being heavily ordered.
Last week the officials of the company
made round of the departments and asked
the head of each one what condition his
department was in to begin running with
out cessation, day and night. Most Of them
replied that with little change they would
be ready for running twenty-four hours
a day The alterations have been made and
it looks as If the factory would put on
three gangs at once.
