Probably the first town in the coun-
try to be lighted by acetylene gas Is
New Milford, Conn, which has just put
in an acetylene generating plant for
public lighting purposes. The gas
holder Is about nine feet in diameter
and FIVE feet high, having capacity of
800 cubic feet. There are four genera
tors, each holding $50 pounds Of car
bide. The connections are such that
water is permitted to gradually flow
into one generator until the carbide is
entirely consumed when it is automatic
ally switched to the next generator
and thus the pressure and supply Is
maintained. Boston Herald.

Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON. Mar. Is. 1898.


President Mckinley will pro-
badly in the years to come look
back upon the cabinet meeting
held today as the most momentous
over which he presided, and it
was, in fact, the most momentous
cabinet meeting held since the
close of the civil wa. The sub
ject under discussion was the Off
cial report of the naval court Of
inquiry on the destruction of the
Maine, which is now in tie custo-
dy of the president. The report
will not be made public until af-
ter it has been sent to congress:
and it will not be sent to congress
until next week, but a number of
the leading men in both branches
Of congress have already been in
formed Of the contents of the re-
port, which is long one. There
may be surprises in the report, but
it is well-nigh certain that it's
main purport will not surprise
anybody. When the report is
sent to congress the president will
also inform congress Of the nature
of the communication he has sent
to Spain concerning the report.
Until then we must wait, as pat
iently as we can.
Senators Gallinger and Thurston
have added their testimony as eye
witnesses to that Of Senator Proc
ter, as to the deplorable condition
of affairs in Cuba and the necess-
ity of immediate action on the part
Of this government in order to save
the lives Of hundreds Of thousands
of innocent women and children,
the victims of the inhuman policy
of Spain. Senator Gallinger does
not hesitate to openl y advocate the
annexation of Cuba. but if the adj
ministration and congress deem it
wise to go no further at this time
than intervention he will accept
that, provided that it shall begin
the interest Of. free Cuba, entirely
independent oH Spain in anyway.
Senator Tburston fully agrees
with Senators, Proctor and Gall
niger that no settlement will be
satisfactory that leaves the Span
ish flag flying over any portion of
Cuba, and that sentiment is also
shared by the majority in congress.
Senator Cullom this week intro
duced the bill prepared by the Ma.
tional Business Mems league, which
provides for the collection of SO
per cent of all customs in gold, in
order that the government may be
able to command an assured in
come in gold at all times.
The naval appropriation bill
now before the house, indicates
that this country intends to be
prepared to hold its own in any
fighting it may have to do. IT
provides for three battleships Of
the most formidable type, one to

The demand for a government

ton Of it's importance. and that
for the annual report Of the patent
office for 1897, prepared by Hon.
A. P. Greedy, acting commissioner
Of patents, is daily Increasing, as
the knowledge Of it's valuable con-
tents becomes more widely dissem-
mated. This report which may be
had free by writing to the co,nmis-
sioner Of patents, Washington, d.
c., may not be SO exciting as the
war news Of the dty, but it is far
more beneficial, both to the indl-
vidnal and to the country; it re-
cords the profitable triumphs of
peace, as shown by the mighty in
dustrial progress of America, in
connection with the y, S. patent
system, the best as we'll as the
cheapest in tbs world.
The combine of democratic, pop
ulists, and silver republicans,
which was recently ma e for the
purpose Of helping along the cleo
ton Of free silver members of the
next house, is about to go to pie
COS, if indeed, it has not already
done so. The pops. and silver re-
publicans have found out that the
democrats wanted their votes with
out giving them their share of the
possible winnings. The original
agreement was that all of the
pops. and silver republicans who
now hold seats in the house were
to be renominated and be support
ed by the full stAngth of the com
bine, and that no democratic NOM
nations for congress were to be
made in any district where a ma
jority of~the anti-republ;can votes
were not democratic. It is now
known that this agreement is to be
broken by the democrats, and the
other parties to the combine are
naturally objecting.
Senator Hanna has been so per-
sistently misrepresented in con
nection with the Cuban question
that he made a statement this
week in which he said that he had
been in favor of using every honor
able method of maintaining peace
with Spain solely because, he
dreaded the horrors Of war and
that he had no connection With
the alleged syndicate formed for
the alleged purpose Of buying Gu
ba from Spain.
President Mckinley has signed
the blllsfor the relief Of the. fami-
lies of the Maine victims, and Of
the survivors, which was unani-
aously passed by both branches
Of congress.

If the comments Of the country

suit of the Mankato conference,
Hays and his aids, or the aids and

their loyalty to Spain, nominally If not
actually, until Spanish sovereignty was re-
linquiShed.
1t Is apprehended that considerable trou-
bic is likely to grow out of such of these
as renounced their allegiance to Spain be-
ing permitted to vote at the first election
for the establishment of the government.
But If they are not permitted to vote and
a test of loyalty to the insurgents Is re-
quired the establishment of the govern
ment would be left entirely in the hands
of the insurgents, who are reclloned to be
a very small minority of the legitimate per-
manent residents of the island. This gov
erpment has the precedent set by itself in
the reconstruction of the southern states
of requiring a test of loyalty, and 1t is
expected that the Cubans will insist on
this in Cuba, and may make considerable
trouble if citizens who were active in their
support Of the Spanish cause are now given
equal franchise with themselves, and the
predominating voice of numbers in the es-
tatlishment of the new government.
The government of the Island Of Cuba
and the management of its cities and ports
is one of the serious questions which the
administration is now considering. There is
no difficulty regarding the territory occu-
pied by the United States forces, for ar
rangrments regarding tariffs, the collection
of duties and The management of affairs in
their territory are easily determined. But
the government of the other portions of the
island from now until the Spanish evacuate
is more serious problem. 1t is believed
that the customs and laws of Spain must
continue until the occupation by the United
States takes place; that Spain will collect
the customs dues and manage the business
of the ports for the present.
But that is not the only difficulty. The
