The refusal of the crenating COM
pan1es to lncinderate the BODY of
Durrant shows a peculiar state of in
tolerance. After a man is dead the
body is simply so much flesh rapidly
approaching decomposition, and the
remains OF the best man living will
IN a few days be Just as undesirable to
have about the premises as the re-
mains OF the vilest murderer. Anv
sentimental idea that the remains of
bad people are more contami1atino
than those Of the good, is simply
ridiculous.

PARTITION OF SAMOA DENIED.
Reported United states and Germany
Negotiations Absurd.

London. Aug. 29.-The Berlin correspond
ent of the Times, referring to the report
that Germany had entered into negotia-
tions with the United States for the parti-
ton Of the Samoan Islands, says that the
semi-official Marine Politische Correspon-
denz observes: 80 far as we are aware
no such proposals have been made to
Washington by the German government.
PROPOSALS to that effect have been
made in the German press, but nowhere
else to our knowledge.
"The assertion that were Germany to
come into sovereign possession of Upolu,
the United States would be shut out from
the harbor of Apia is absolutely absurd;
and this applies equally to any other ma
ton having a harbor on the island.
The fact that Germany's interests In that
island far surpasses those of the two other
nations is indisputable Nor does the hos
tile press even venture to question that
fact, which at any approach OF the set
tlement Of the existing rights of occupa-
ton there cannot fail to be an important
factor In Germany's favor.
This demand of Germany is perfectly
justifiable."
1.-The whlrliglg of time" remarks the
Post, brings strange and unforeseen
things to pass, and this new policy of the
United States is one of them. or Is 1t
fear that America intends to absorb all
the islands and territories within her reach
that partly explains Germanys inordi-
nate desire to be on the spot and partake
in any share there may be?"
The Post carries this point further when
commenting on the alleged recent sedi-
tlous meeting In jamaica. II observes;
Sooner or later Jamaica must be abb
sorbed by the United States. All the An
TILES will gradually, but inevitably como
under the banner OF the Stars and Stripes.
Hayu viii soon give cause for interven-
ton and naturally America will inter-
vene In a word, where the English,

BRITISH PRESS VIEWS.
Many Difficulties in the Way of the
Cars Proposition.

London, Aug. 29.-The Daily Graphic
this morning, referring to the proposal
OF Emperor Nicholas, says: 1T would be
idle to attempt to ignore the many and
grave difficulties standing in the way of
the attainment of the Cars wishes, but
1t cannot be possible to doubt the sin
certify of the magnanimous proposal"
The Standard, speaking editorlally of the
Cars. proposal, says: "In England at
least respect and sympathy will be felt
Tor the proposal. 1t is a conception we'll
worthy of the young sovereign. 1t is pain
1uily obvious that there are enormous diff
tculties to be overcome which it is pos
sible the Gar, in his ardor and humane
enthusiasm has not maturely considered.
Ii is vision which has occurred to many
minds, but has always had to be dismissed
as mere dream.
The nations are not likely to cast away
the sword unless they have a better war
rant than paper protocols and conventions
moreover, the moment does not seem alto
gether propitious. New armed nations
are arising in Asia and America, whom
1t might not be easy to convince of the
safety and desirability of abandoning the
enterprises on which they have embarked
with so much energy"
Ihe Times correspondent in st. Peters
Durg, referring to the proposal saws:
mere is reason to believe that it form
ed the object of communications between
the courts of st. Petersburg and Berlin
some time previously and in all probabili-
ty the support of Germany at least was
secured in advance"
The Times says, editorially: 'If Russia
which has also great, but still unde-
Yeloped industrial future before her, is be-
coming fully convinced, as we in Eng
land long have been, that her resources
could be better devoted to beneficent arts
oI peace than to the destructive unoco-
nomis energies of war, English1nen, rs
essentially peace-loving people, can only
hail the Cars pronouncement with the
utmost cordiality as glad tidings of great
JOY, which, whatever may be the prac-
teal issue, does cast honor upon that SOW
ereign's generous and lofty spirit and HUI
manity. The difficulties are great bun
nothing can henceforth deprive the Car

NO WAR TALK IN THE c0RTES.
SPANISH GOVERNMENT INTENDS TO
REPRESs ITS DISCUSSION.


Senior SagaSta Declares the Discus
sion of War or Peace in the Cor
tes Not Permissible While the Mat
ters Are Before the Supreme COun-
ellis of War and Marine-Deputies
Will Have No Reliable Informa-
tiOn on Which to Base Discus
sion and the Government VIII Re-
fuse to Furnish the Data-Peace
Not Yet SiLned.
Madrid. Aug. 2S. 4;SO p. m.--Senor Sa-
gasta, the premier, Is quoted as having
in the course of an interview made some
important statements, declaring that 1t
was the governments intention to repress
the discussion of war topics in the Cortes
He said that as soon as the Cortes met
the government would submit bill au-
thorizing peace negotiations and next a
measure relating to the suspension of the
constitutional guarantees.
Although Senor Sagasta did not state
the nature of this measure, it is supposed
that it will provide for the continuation
of the suspension.
'"The government" said the premier,
will not discuss in any form the ques-
tions of peace and war. Indeed, the depu-
ties would be entirely lacking in the ma
terial necessary for discussion. The de-
bate could not be based on concrete, posi-
tive facts, founded on indisputable docu-
ments, since the necessary information
has not yet arrived. believe thai no dis
cussion of the surrender of Santiago and
Manila will occur nor of the destruction
of the Spanish feet unless trustworthy
data and exact proofs are to hand. More
over, no discussion is permissible of mat
ters at present under consideration of the
supreme coueils of war and marine Mis-
takes or blunders may have been COM
nitted, but thus far we have not sufficient
material to judge.
Another reason why questions of peace
and war should not be discussed is that
diplomatic negotiations are now being car
ried on; and a debate on these subjects
might be provocative of undesirable COM
plications. 1t must not be said that peace
is signed and discussion is now allowa-
Bile. Peace is not signed. Spain is still at
war with the United States. The two ma
tons have merely concluded a suspension
of hostilities in order to negotiate peace.
These negotiations may be brought to a
successful issue. but IT might happen that
hostilities will be recommended.
THAT is why think the Cortes will only
be able to discuss strictly necessary ques-
tions; that is, to make itself acquainted
with the situation of the interests now at
stake, which are so important for the ma
ton; but not to engage in debate which
would assume such proportions as to in
fringe upon the discretion which the grav-
ity of the circumstances requires of the
Cortes.
Should they ask to have presented the
documents concerning the surrender of
Santiago and Manila, and the destruction
of the fleet now in the governments pos
session, the government would not accede
to the request. These papers are in the
hands of the supreme councils which
alone, before the proclamation of peace
can conduct inquiries and establish re-
sponsibilities. The inquiries may result in
acquittals or severe sentences, even the
capital penalty"

PRESIDENT mas A QUIET DAY.
He Is Greatly Pleased with His visit
TO Somerset.

Somerset, Pa, Aug. 2S.-President Nc
Kinley came to Somerset to pass a restful
day, and he has certainly accomplished
that purpose. The day was the most de-
hghtful of the season here. The President
has taken advantage of IL. He rose early
this morning and passed an hour walking
about town with his brother, Abner Here
and there he met am old acquaintance ana
stopped for a short talk.
The Presidents determination to attend
the morning service at the Methodist Epis-
copal Church became known early. and by
the usual time for opening service every
scat except those reserved for the presi-
Dental party was occupied. The altar was
tastefully adorned with white chrysanthe-
NUNS and vari-colored lilies. Mrs. Ab-
ner Mckinley and her daughter, Mabel,
drove to the church and Abner Mckinley
and the President walked. The Presi-
dents wife did not attend.
At the church Mrs. Abner Mckinley
ofTiciated at the organ, her daughter, Mass
Mabel, sang a solo. and the Rev. Gamer
on. the pastor preached his sermon from
the seventeenth chapter and twenty-hrat
Is within you"
At the close of the benedction the Presi-
dent left the church at once, and with
his brother walked directly TO the latter's
home.
Afterward the President and Mrs. Nc
Kinley and Mr.. and Mrs Abner Mckinley
entered the latter's carriage and passed
some time in a drive to the country.
The President IN going about meets with
some peculiar famillarities. While he was
sitting on the porch this morning an aged
German, who probably retains some TN
favorable impression of imperial pomp IN
the Fatherland, was driving past Motto
ing the President, he pulled his horse mp
suddenly and said loud enough to be
heard a square away: why, Mr.. Presi-
dent, you don't look like the rulers Ia
the old country; you don't wear crown
and you just dress like other men,"
smile and a pleasant bow was the Presi-
dents reply.
This afternoon the President passed an
hour on the porch, and later he and his
brother went driving. After dinner this
evening few personal friends made short
calls on the President and Mrs. Mckinley.
The town is gaily decorated with flags
in honor of its distinguished visitors, but
the people fully appreciate the Presidents
desire for rest and there have been no
intrusions. The President Is greatly pleas
ed with his visit here and regrets that
ID cannot be extended, but the arrange
ment having been made for his visit to
the military camp at Montauk on satur-
day. necessitates his leaving here at noon
tomorrow.
