FROM THE PARSONS SIDE.


"As usual the Morning News is mix
ed in its news items" said a friend of
Charles Il. Parsons 10 the Wayfarer.
The report of the habeas corpus pro-
ceeding in Parsons case is no excep-
tion to the rule. The facts of the case
are as follows: On last Sunday after
noon Charles F. Parsons, an employe
Of the Delaware Mercantile Company
was arrested without a warrant by De-
tective McVey and placed in the GUS
tody of the chief Of police, whs con-
fined him in the City Hall. On Tues
day Martin E. Smith, his counsel, who
is associated with Artemas Smith, pc
titioned CHIEF Justice Lore for a writ
of habeas corpus, which was granted.
Argument was heard on the case at Z
o'clock on Wednesday night, and the
prisoner was discharged, the Judge de-
Gliding that he was illegally arrested
and confined. How far Detective Nc
Vey has transgressed the laws Of the
State of Delaware, as laid down I'm sec
tion /, chapter 271, volume -, of the
Laws of Delaware. may furnish him
serious food for thought for several
days, and finally. It may, like Banquo's s
ghost. rise to disquiet him. Besides,
1t is probable that the proper parties
will have to face a suit for damages be-
cause Of the false Imprisonment"
Since the above was received by the
Wayfarer it appears that Parsons has
left town without claiming the per-
sonal effects in the possession Of the
police, and that he is wanted by the
authorities of Philadelphia.

POOR TABBYIs DEATH.

great many cats" remarked a man,
who knows what he is talking about,
to the Wayfarer. This morning, at
Front and Madison streets, 1 saw cat
and kitten playing on the tracks IN
mont of an approaching car. They
were having such fine time that they
paid no heed to the car. ! saw the
cats head cut of, and then I turned
away, for it would have made me sick.
How the kitten Jared l do not know,
for I did not wait to see. One Of the
linsmen Of the road told me that
scarcely a daG passed that a cat was
not killed somewhere on the system.
Sometimes several meet death on the
same day.

or is not independent beyond peradventure.
Nor from THE standpoint of expedience do
think 1t would be wise or prudent for this
government to recognize at the present
time the independence of the So-called
Cuban republic. Such recognition IS not
Secessary IN order TO enable re United
To commit this country now to the recog-
milton of any particular government in
Cuba might subject us to embarrassing
conditions OF International oblg ?tton to-
wards the organization so recognized. In
case of intervention our conduct would be
such government; we would be required to
submit to Its direction and to assume to
II the mere relations of friendly ally.
When IL shall appear hereafter that there
is wl$hin the island a government capable
of performing the duties and dischargng
the functions ofa separate nation, and hav-
ing as a matter of fact the proper forms
and attributes of nationality, such govern
ment can be promptly and readily recog-
nlzed. and the relations and Interests OF the
United States with such natfon adjusted.
Our Alternatives.
There remain the alternative forms OF In
terventlon to end the war, either as an
impartial neutral by imposing a rational
compromise between the contestants, or
as the active ally of the one party or the
other.
As to the first, It is not to be forgotten
lation of the United States has virtually
been one of friendly intervention in many
ways. each not, of itself conclusive, but
all tending to the exertion of potential
influence toward an ultimate pacific re-
suit just and honorable to all interests
concerned. The spirit of all our acts hith-
erto has been an earnest, unselflsh desire
for peace and prosperity in Cuba, untar-
nished by differences between us and Spain
and unstained by the blood of American
citizens.
Intervention Justihnble.
The forcible intervention of the United
States, as a neutral, to stop the war, ac-
cording to the large dictates of humanity,
and following many historical precedents
where neighborlng states have interfered
to check the hopeless sacrifice of life by
internecine conflicts beyond their borders,
Is justifiable on rational grounds. 1t in
wolves, however, hostile constraint upon
both the parties to the contest as well
to enforce a truce as to guide the eventual
settlement.
Grounds for Intervention.
The grounds for such intervention may
be briefly summarized as follows:
F'irst-In the cause of humanity and TO
put an end to the barbarities, blood
shed, starvation and horrible miseries
now existing there, and which the
parties to the conflict are either un-
able or unwilling to stop or mitigate.
1t IS no answer to say this is all in another
country, belonging to another nation, and
Is therefore none of our business. 1t is
specially our duty, for 1t is right at our
door.
second-we owe It to our citizens in
Cuba to afford them that protection and
indemnity for life and property which no
government there can or will afford, and

IN STATU QUO.
Such is the Diplomatic Phase OF the Spanish
Situation.

Washington, April 13.-The diplo-
matte phase of the Spanish situation
is in statu quo. There are no new
negotiations and no further develop
ments in the old ones. 1t is the eX-
pectation that this status will con-
tinue for the present at least while
congress considers the subject. A
definite understanding has been
reached by the representatives of the
six great powers of Europe that no
additional action from that quarter
would be reached at this time. This
is not the result of any meeting of
the ambassadors and ministers, for
they have not met in body since the
presidents message went to congress.
The armistice has gone into effect
in Cuba, but up to late hour Tues
day no word had Come as to the atti-
tude of the insurgents. If they do not
accept it, the solution appears to be
simple. If they do not conept it, the
expectation of the SpnlAsh govern
ment is that this will be made mani
fest within the next few days by con-
tinued hostilities by the forces of
Gomez and others. If the Spanish
troops are attacked while in garrison.
they will defend themselves and there
after will feel free to take the aggres-

ing. The cheers had apprised the
clerks and other employees of the big
building of his coming and there was
a wild rush for the state department
corridor.
AS the elevator came to stop and
Mr.. Lee stepped out, scene occurred
unprecedented in the history of the
great building. Hat in hand Mr.. Lee
passed into the corridor and some one

cheers went echoing down the long
halls. Then there was another out
burst and people poured forth from
every room. Consul Lee bowed to the
crowd and as he reached the door to

bowed again.
After a few minutes the consul gen
eral emerged, accompanied by Secre-
tary Sherman and Assistant Secretary
Day. The three entered a carriage
and were quickly driven to the White
House, Mr.. Lee getting another oya-
tion on his way over.

nizc as fully now as then that the issuance
OF a proclamation of neutrality, by which
process the so-called recognition of bell
ligerence Is published, could, OF itself and
unattended by other action, accomplish
nothing toward the one end for which we
labor, the instant pacification of Cuba and
the cessation of the misery that afflicts the
island.
Precedents from History.
Turning to the question of recognizing
at this time the independence of the pres
ent inSurgent government in Cuba, we find
safe precedents in our history from an
early day. They are well summed up In
December al 1SSs' on the subject OF the
recognition of the independence of Texas.
lie said: I'm all the contests that have
arisen out of the revolutions of France,
out of the disputes relating to the crews
of Portugal and Spain, out of the separa-
ton of the American possessions of both
from the European governments, and out
of the numerous and constantly occurring
struggles for dominion In Spanish Amer
nra lSs, SO wisely consistent .s with our Just
ernment that we have, under the most
critical circumstances, avoided all cen
sure, and encountered no other evil than
that. produced by transient estrange-
ment of good will in those against whom
we have been by force of evidence COM
PEELED to decide.
Our Established Policy.
TT was thus made known to the world
that the uniform policy and practice of the
| United States is to avoid all interference
| In disputes which merely relate to the In
| ternal government of other nations, and
| eventually to recognize the authority of
| the prevailing party without reference to
| our particular interests and views or to
the merits of the original controversy.
But on this, as on every other trying oc-
| casion, safety is to be found In rigid
| adherence to principle.
In the contest between Spain and the re-
| volted colonies we stood aloof and waited,
not only until the ability of the new states
| to protect themselves was fully eStab-
| ilshed. but until the danger of their being
| again subjugated had entirely passed
| away. Then, and not until then, were they
| recognized. Such was our course in regard
to Mexico herself
The Texas Case.
'It is true that with regard to Texas the
| civil authority of Mexico has been expelled
| Its invading army defeated, the chief of the
| republic himself captured, and all present
| power to control the newly-organized gov
| ernment of to-day annihilated within its
| confines. But on the other hand, there is, In
| appearance a least, an imm ense disparity
| of physical force on the side of Texas
| The Mexican republic under another execu-
| tive is rallying Its forces under a new
| leader, and menacing fresh invasion tc
| recover It's lost dominion.
Upon the issue of this threatened IN
| vasion, the independence of Texas may be
| considered as suspended; and were there
| nothing peculiar in the situation of the
| United States and Texas, our acknowledge
| ment of its independence at such a crisis
| could scarcely be regarded as consistent
with that prudent reserve withswhSch we

Canovas' Minister of Marine Makes n Dam

Canovas' Minister of Marine Makes a Dam
aging Admission in Regard to CubaA
Ports.
Madrid, April 13.-El Heraldo pub-
fishes an interview with Admiral
Beranger. former minister of marine,
in the course of which he expressed
his confidence in the ability of the
Spanish navy to win in the event of
war with the United States.
There is no fear" he said, "of our
Cuban ports being exposed to night
attack, inasmuch as Havana, Glen
fuegos, Nuevitas and Santiago are de-
Tended by electric and automatic tor
pedoes with large radius of action.
The late Senor Canovas Del Castillo,
who paid attention to these matters,
decided. in accord with myself, to
send to Cuba 100 torpedoes, which
must have been placed in those har-
bors. Chacon, the well known tor
pedo expert, undertook to convey and
place these engines.
Il have already said that by sea we
shall be victorious. l will give my
reasons. The. first is the excellent
discipline maintained on our war
ships, the second is that on board
American vessels as soon as firing is
opened panic will set in, since it is
common knowledge that their crews
comprise men of every nationality.
Pitted ship against ship then we have
nothing to fear"
The impartial, commenting on this
interview, says: THAT those tor
pedoes should be sent in case war
should break out is very natural, but
that as much should be admitted at
this moment constitutes n twofold
imprudence; in the first place because
it warns the enemy, and the enemy
being warned it will do it's best to
| cripple those defenses, and secondly
because the jingoes, availing them
selves of the evidence afforded by the
minister of marine of the late Castillo,
will assert that one of the torpedoes
he describes caused the Maine ex-
| Dlosion."
