WHYP

It is announced from washington
that the president will assume that the
Maine was blown up accidentally by an
explosion from within until information
reaches him which shall prove the con-
trary. Just why he should take this
view of the matter instead of the OPP
posite view, when nothing definite is
known, it is difficult to understand.
Unless he is in possession of informa-
ton which has not been given to the
public he has no more ground on which
to base his conclusion than has the
public on which it bases an opposite
conclusion.
There can be little doubt that a large
majority of the American people take a
view of the matter contrary to that
held by the president. If he has any
facts in his possession which are calcu-
lated to bring them to his way of think
ing he should give them out.
As the situation exists at present it
IS not surprising that there are hints
that the administration is engaged in
trying to help Spain out of an unpleas-
ant predicament. The president at
least might have refrained from taking
sides.
There is no apparent reason why the
United States should take any especial
pains to shield Spain from a suspicion
which every detail of that country's
history fully warrants. Especially is
this true in the light of the fact that the
Spanish cannot be acquitted of the
wrecking of the Maine without con-
demning somebody in our own ranks.
Whatever the cause of the disaster
responsibility lies somewhere. AS long
as there is no evidence in existence that
it is our fault why should this country
assume the burden of proving that the
Spaniards are guiltles5. They are cum
ming enough and INSCRIPTIONS enough
to take care of themselves.

ably be his successor No more

WaterwOrks Fight at Arkansas
City Takes a Quick Turn.
The Company Shuts Off the
City's Supply.
NO FIRE PROTECTION
And Many Business Houses
Heated by Steam Suffer.
COmical Rush of Citizens to Fill
Tubs and Barrels.

Arkansas City, Feb. 2.-The water
works fight here has eliminated in the
company shutting off water from the city
and Arkansas City is now absolutely
without fire protection.
Saturday morning the report spread
rapidly over the streets that the water
works would shut down at 10 o'clock
There was a general rush to fill tubs,
pals and everything that could be used
was pressed into service to lay in a sup
ply.
This is the result of Judge Williams
order of last week instructing the re-
ceiver to close down unless the city paid
5000 at once. A meeting of the council
was called for Friday night, but those
OF the council who are opposed to set
tlement refused to attend, and, there be-
acted. Receiver Hopper decided that if
the city would take no action he would
close down at once, and at a. N. Sat
urday morning had the fires drawn and
the pumps dismantled, and at 10 a. m.
the stand-pipe was cut off, all water in
mains was exhausted by II a. m. This
leaves the city without fire protection
and several large blocks that are heated
by steam, as well as hydraulic elevators,
have come to StandStill.
Th1S IS the last move made by the bond
holders. What will be done by the op-
position has not yet been decided, as they
did not expect the shutdown to occur, al
though they knew the order was out.

A THIRTEEN STORY.
The Magic Number is Effective Even
in the KlOndike.

Montreal, Feb. 21-Thirteen young Eng
lishmen, under the leadership of Viscount
Avonmore, left here on December Is last
for the Klondike. Since their departure
they have had all kinds of bad luck.
From Montreal they proceeded to Ed
monitor, Northwest Territory. A few days
after their arrival there Captain Alleyne
died of pneumonia, contracted by Ventur-
ing out when the temperature was 20 de-
grees below zero.
DR.. Hoops, another member of the par
ty, fell and badly sprained his ankle a
few days later. Then Captain Powell,
while on a short trip into the country had
his feet badly frozen. An English colo
mel who was one of the Inflated thirteen
broke his arm.
Captain Powell left the party and pro-
ceeded to Vancouver. Three days later
he died.
Then Dr. Hoops met with another acct
dent by falling across a dog sleigh and
breaking his ribs.
Then Mr.. Zimmerman, another of the
party, was arrested at the instance of
Captain O'Brien on a charge of embezzle-
ment.
Captain O'Brien, who had assumed
leadership of the party, was arrested on
a charge of assault for attempting to stab
a man in his employ. The captain has
just been bound over to keep the peace
and the party is broken up.
