Monday was an extremely active day
for Mr.. Mckinley and his advisers. Mr..
Hanna and his friend, Mr. J. J. AIcCook.
Of New York, spent a good deal OF time
with the President ana Secretary Of the
Navy. We do not violate confidence in
saying that neither Of the visitors did
the least thing to enCuura sc Z spirit Of
jingoism at the White House Last eve
ming Mr.. McCook felt called upon 10 deny
certain rumors which he appears to think
have been circulated, concerning his con-
nection with Spanish and Cuban affairs
lie declared with solemn emphasis that
there was no foundation for the idea that
he was interested in or represented any
scheme to buy Cuba. which was too large
a job for any syndicate to undertake
We viii not dissent from anything he is
reported to have said in his disclaimer.
1t is perhaps interesting 10 observe that
Mr.. McCOok's denial refers To something
never yet charged against him that we
are aware OF. Nobody has ever thought
that he or his friends or principals wanted
TO buy Cuba. There has been and is.
nevertheless, very widespread belief
that they wish to put the American Gov
eminent in a position where Il will have
to guarantee $500. 001 600 Of the Spanish-
Cuban war debt. held or controlled by
the syndicate at very low figures. The
guarantee would make the securities
worth at least their face value, and that
would involve profit Of perhaps $500 co.,
Oco. That deal is a much more magnif-
cent conception than would be the pur-
chase of an expensive island now some
what out OF repair. Mr. McCook is as
smooth citizen as his associate. Mir.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Baltimore Democrats Listen To an
Address on That subject

Baltimore. March S.-The Democratic
committee. of 81 last night listened to an
address in the parIors of the CarroIltou
Hotel from Mr.. Frank Driscoll. Of the
Baltimore bar who spoke on The Mon
roe Doctrine"
When the Monroe doctrine is again
brought 10 the front by this country" he
said we will find that every European
government will side with England on the
question and il would not be surprising 10
students of the subject to see all Europe
united against this country in an effort
ia wipe out what they style our preten-
sions to proteCtorate over the whole
American continent.
For this reason the speaker deemed il
wise that the United States should in
crease her Army and Navy twOfold at
least and expend all availabl money for
coast defenses. Abiding to the Cuban
question he quoted Daniel Webster on the
subject, attributing to him the statement:
As long as Cuba is in possession Of
Spain. u friendly power, a power that we
have no reason to fear, | say let Cuba re-
main as she is. When. on the other hand
IL becomes evident that Spain is going to
lose Cuba and that she is likely to fall
into the hands of another foreign power
when that time comes it will be our duty
to take Cuba in

Little Ebert, the Napoleon Of his com

gagement last night. just after the cur
tain had fallen on the last act and he
and his iiancee strolled off the stage each
with an arm twined about the other. And
il may be said that this midget wedding
will be the direct result of being cast in
parts in their play which made them low
ers on the stage as we'll as deep in their
hearts.
Ebert is twenty-nine years Old. His
fiancee is twenty-three, but nearly a foot
taller than he.
