THE TURNING POINT.
In United States History is
Reached by the Cabinet
Today.

Washington, July 29.-Interest To-
cused this morning on the approaching
cabinet meeting. 1t was the general
expectation that in its results this
meeting of the cabinet would prove to
be the most important that has been
held, not only during the present, but
in many preceding administrations.
Upon the nature of the answer to the
Spanish overture for peace would de-
pend the whole future policy Of the
United States for it would determine
whether the nation shall embark on a
policy of worldwide expansion or shall
more cautiously content itself with eX-
polling the Spanish flag from the west
ern hemisphere, while at the same time
providing what may be in the end am
pie guarantee for the extension OF our
trade in the east.
All this means in substance that in
the best judgment of close observers
here the one critical point is the future
of the Philippines. AS near as can be
ascertained from personal inquiry
clear majority of the cabinet are dis
posed to be content with the require
ments of a coaling station in the Phil
lpp1neS, allowing Spain to retain the re-
mainder of the group of islands. How
ever, it may be stated that within the
last 4S hours the president has confined
his condolences to the secretary of state
so that the remaining members of the
cabinet entered the White House today
with their minds in a receptive condi-
ton as to any arguments that might be
presented upon this important PROPOSE
ton, even prepared for delay.
In connection with the peace nego-
tiatiOns some significance was attached
to the fact that the members of
the war board conferred with Secretary
Long in his office just before that Off
cial left for the cabinet meeting.
While these conferences are frequent,
there was disposition to regard this
particular one as having a bearing on
the present negotiations, as Capt. Ma
han and the other naval Strategists
composing this board would be able to
give valuable advice on the strategic
value and necessity of cOaling stations

Rear Admiral Kimberly Makes a Stir
ring Speech


New York, July ga special dis
patch to the Tribune from Boston says:
Rear Admiral Kimberly, U. S. N,
(retired) delivered an address on Our
Navy" at the Chautauqua assembly
grounds, Lakeview, South Framing
ham.
After sketching the early history of
the United States navy and its glorious
achievements previous to and in the
civil war, the speaker called attention
to the fact that for two decades after
the close of the rebellion, the navy lay
idle, it being apparently forgotten.
Many of the ships became old and rot
ten, almost unsafe, he said. It was
no fault Of the naval officers. Since
then the navy had made great strides.
The armament of our navy was supe-
r1Or to any in the world but its size
second at least, if not first.
Our government" he added, (which
stands for morality and which seeks to
protect the rights of the weak, is all
right. But what it seeks to do can on
ly be done through an adequate navy.
Diplomacy is good, but there are times
when it is impotent unless it is backed
up by a strong navy. We are now go
ing to build up our navy to proper size
and am glad of it. But no matter
how fine ships we have they will be
practically useless unless they are
manned by capable officers"
Admiral Dewey was alluded to es-
pecially by the speaker, and the hero's
name was greeted with loud applause.
Dewey" he said, was with Farragut
IN the civil war and acquitted himself

NEWTON ELOPERS CAUGHT
Married Man and Hotel Waitress Ar
rested at ST. Louis.

Newton, Kan, July 29-The mystery
attached to the Newton couple who
were arrested in st. Louis last Saturday
has at last been explained. The par
ties arrested in st. Louis admitted that
they were from this city, but gave their
names as John Nier and Susannah
Diener, which were plainly fictitious
ones. It turns out that A. S. Perry and
Nellie Wright of this city elOped about
a week before and went to Kansas City
and from there to St. Louis, where they
were arrested. Perry is a married man
and worked as night clerk in the New
ton hotel The Wright girl was a wait
ress in the hotel. Perry's wife is still
living here He and his wife have had

HANDLING CHAMBERS.
Asst Atty. Gen. Smelling Advises
That Horses Be Guaranteed,
Not Killed

Assistant Attorney General George Smell
ling has advised the live stock sanitary
board that the board should not destroy
horses affected by CHAMBERS. He says that
the statutes provide that the board may
order animals which have pleurO-pneu-
mOnia or CHAMBERS destroyed, but there is
no appropriation to pay for them.
Mr.. Smelling says that the state law pro-
vides that an owner cannot use horses
affected by glanders nor hire them to
owner. and the best thing for the board
to do is to keep them in quarantine until
count.
The case was reported from Harvey

Iseavenworth Kan, July Ex-senator
Baker. in talking over the peace outlook,
said: t'T am of the opinion that the Unit

of settlement, a REIMBURSEMENT of all
rights to the islands of Cuba and Porto
Rico. She should cede to US coaling sta
lions in the Philippines, CarOlines and
Canary Islands. While Spain is poor, never
5heless I believe that the Philippines
should be held for a reasonable indemnity,
as Porto Rico does not seem to me to be
sufficiently valuable for that purpose"

and close game The visitors strength

not do its best work on the start. c.
