New Orleans, Feb. 21.-Booker T.
Washington. prominent colored leader
and educator of Tuskegee, Ala, in an
open letter to the constitutional conven-
ton now in session in this city, after ex-
planning the motives which prompt him
TO address the convention, says among
other things: "Since the war no state
has had ssch an opportunity to settle
the race question, so far as IL concerns
politics, as is now given Louisiana.
The negro agrees with you that IL is
necessary to the salvation of the south
that the restriction be put upon the
ballot. / know that you have two seri-
Gus problems before you-ignorant and
corrupt government on the one hand,
and the other a way to restrict the ballot
so that control will be in the hands of
the intelligent without regard TO race.
With the sincerest sympathy with you
I'm your efforts TO find way out of the
difficulty. want to suggest that no state
In the south can make law that would
provide an opportunity or the temptation
for an ignorant white man to vote and
withhold the same opportunity from
an ignorant colored man without injur-
ing both men. Any law controlling the
ballot that is not absolutely just and fair
to both races will work more permanent
injury to the whites than to the blacks
] beg of you further that in the degree
that you close the ballot box against the
ignorant you open the schoolhousc."

THE LIMIT OF SQUEEZEABILITY.

London, Feb. PA fever OF excite
ment has been created in England over
news from Akassa. West Africa. that
Intelligence has arrived there that two
French expeditions are advancing to-
word Sokoto, capital Of the sultanate OF
Sokoto, on the Sokoto river, In the ex-
treme north OF the Haussa states, and
that six French officers. with a force or
200 men, have arrived at Argungu.
The Times cannot credit the report
and reproves the levity OF the French
press regarding grave situation. The
presence of a French force at Ar9ungu,
The Times declares, would be so fragrant
a breach OF any possible construction
Of the Say Barua agreement or 1890
(Anglo- French treaty at Busah) that
nothing but its immediate withdrawal
could avert the most deplorable conse-
quences."
Other papers publish similar articles,
urging Lord Salisbury TO intimate
plainly that Great Britain's limit OF
"squeezability" has been reached. The
Morning Post says: IF France is really
making deliberate plans to annex Brit
ish territory by military occupation. this
can only imply that she desires war with
England. In that case her wish will
doubtless be gratifed.'

RoCHEFoRTs IMPRISONMENT.

Paris. Feb. 21.-The effort of Henry
Rochefort. the editor, TO make theat-
rical appearance at the prison gates,
with all the glamor surrounding martyr
dom for the sake of conviction, was a
great success. A large concourse OF
his friends and supporters greeted him
as he showed up 10 undergo week 8
sentence for libelling fellow journalist
by accusing him of concocting a scheme
to secure Dreyfus' relief by forgery.
The crowd was good natured, and sang
and cheered until a disturbing element
was introduced, when yells of vengeance
upon the Jews interspersed the utter
ances of the demonstrators.
1t is variously estimated that from
10000 to 10000 people took part in the
demonstration. This suffices to show
that public feeling is unchanged. Mr..
Rochefort had indicated his intended
route to the prison in The Intransigeant.
On learning, however. that the troops
were TO be called out, he changed his
route to the by-streets in order to avoid
q collision.
Mr.. Thiebaud. in the coui~e Of an
harangue, added Down with the
foreigners To the other cries; and the
same sentiment was expressed in vlo-
lent speeches delivered al a stormy anti
Jewish meeting, in the course Of the

New York. Feb 21.-The Spanish war
vessel Vizcaya, in command Of Captain
Eulate, is off Tompkinsville, Staten ISL
and. where she is closely guarded by
navy yard tugs and police patrol boats
Rear Admiral Bunce, the command
ant OF the New York navy yard. received
orders from Washington last week to
establish a careful and well appointed
patrol to guard against any harm being
done to the Spaniard because of public
feeling. The commandant Immediately
put himself in communication with
Chief of Police McCullagh and appoint
ed Lieutenant John A. Dougherty Of the
navy TO take c.arge OF the protective
patrol. Chief McCullagh instructed Cap
tain Smith of the harbor police to hold
himself in readiness to supply the de-
sired number of patrolmen to assist in
guarding the visiting vessel.
representative of the Associated
Press was permitted to go aboard the
Nina, on which tug Lieutenant Dough-
erty established his headquarters. This
boat, as well as the Narkeeta, had been
in readiness to go down the bay and
meet the Vizcaya from the moment that
the latter should be sighted off the Jer-
sey coast last Friday. but IL was not un-
I'll o'clock Sunday afternoon that the
weather conditions permitted the naval
guards TO proceed down the bay.
Through the thick fog could be heard
the booming OF cannon which was the
salute given by the Vizcaya as she came
through the narrows. This salute was
answered from the guns at Castle Will
lam on Governors island. AS the Nina
neared the Staten island shore the
Spanish cruiser loomedsup out of the
mist, and Lieutenant Neville ordered
the marines to stand at attention and
salute the visitor as the tug passed on
her starboard side. The police officers
on board also stood at attention, and
the salute was returned by the officers
and men who were grouped on the Viz
caya's deck. The Spaniard was still un-
der way at the time with Pilot Gillespie
on the bridge. At 1886 o'clock the big
vessel reached her anchorage ground
and dropped her mudhook. As soon as
she was anchored several boats I'm the

THE NAMES MAGAZINES.

Havana, Feb. 21.-Lieutenant Com
mander Barnett of the survey boat
Bache said to a correspondent of the
Associated Press: You want the facts
I can tell you there are 95 chances out of
100 that the investigation will show that
the forward magazine of the Maine did
not blow up first, if il exploded at all. and
that II was not the cause of the terrific
consequences that followed. The condi-
tion OF the wreck when first studied and
later careful scrutiny make this an al
most absolute certainty"
Chaplain Chidwick OF the Maine has re-
covered considerable sums OF money,
with letters and other property, from the
bodies taken from the wreck. In one
case the initials can be seen on the coat
lining and may serve TO identify the
body Of the wearer; but the harbor water
is so filthy that the marks are nearly
illegible. Captain Chadwick is one of
the hardest worked officers. and upon
him devolves some OF the most repulsive
duties OF the situation.
1t is apparent that efficient work is not
possible with the divers and apparatus
at hand. and the arrival of experts from
the United States is anxiously awaited.

the name of Admiral Bunce, the cour-
tesies of the port. which is the usual
formality whenever a foreign war vessel
arrives in American waters. Lieuten-
ant Ward remained on board about
quarter OF an hour. and when he de-
scended the gangway on his return to
the Undine, the royal Spanish ensign
was put at half mast. This was the first
hign that the spectators afioat and ashore
were given that the visiting craft was
aware of the disaster in Havana harbor.
Captain Eulate ordered the flag placed
at half-mast as token OF regret at the
death of the American sailors.
Meanwhile the marines who were to
take up the first watch were transferred
from the Nina to the Narkeeta. as were
also four police and a roundsman. A
rowboat containing three men, two OF
whom were rowing and the third was
sitting in the stern, came out from
Tompkinsville and headed directly for
the Vizcaya. The Nina intercepted the
little craft, and in response TO Inquiries
the man in the stern said that he had a
telegraphic dispatchfor the commander
OF the cruiser. When this Information
was transferred to CaGsain Eulate. the
latter told Lieutenant 05ugherty TO let
the boat come alongside, and also said
that he would see the reporters. AS soon
as this was made known TO the press
boats which were lowering around. half
a hundred newspaper men took advan-
tage Of the invitation. and in less than 10
minutes were all aboard plying questions
TO the commander and officers Of the
cruiser.
While all this was taking place the
crowd on shore became larger and the
keenest interest was taken in every
movement of the different vessels.
Lieutenant Dougherty will remain in
the vicinity of the cruiser while she re-
mains in port and will direct every de-
tail regarding the protective watch.
From 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon until
midnight the Nina and Narkeeta pa
trolled the waters in the neighborhood
of the big vessel. Then they were re-
lieved by the tugs Daniel s. Lamont and
Scout. which were provided by the super
visor OF the port. They had on the po-
lice and marine guards, and remained
on watch until o'clock this morning.
At that hour four police launches
manned by policemen and marines were
on duty and stood by until relieved this
afternoon

FINANCIAL ASPECT OF THE LOSS.

New York, Feb. 21.--The Herald prints
the following: Frederick r. Coudert, a
well-known authority upon interna-
tional law, was interviewed regarding
the matter of an indemnity If IL can be
shown that the Spanish authorities at
Havana failed to take proper precau-
tions to insure the safety of the Ameri-
can warship Maine. Spain should pay
indemnity for the loss of the Maine" Mr..
Coudert said. provided the accident Is
found to be due to the negligence Of
Spanish officials. The vessel went to
Havana on friendly visit and was en-
titled to full projections; it was proper
that extraordinary precautions be taken
to insure her safety.
1T was well known that there were
individuals belonging to the Spanish ma
tion who had ill-feelings toward the
United States. II any danger was
known TO exist in Havana harbor, il was
TO be expected that Spain should inform
the captain of the Maine of the fact and
use every means TO prevent any acci-
dents TO the vessel. If on the other hand
