POPUtIsTs BADLY BEATEN IN ALABAMA.

st. Louis, Aug. 2.-senator Jones, Of
Arkansas, chairman Of the national demo.
cratic committee, who WAS In the city
comforting with prominent members OF
his party, said concerning our foreign
policy before he left for New York:
"The United States is pledged to the
world that an independent, stable govern
ment shall be established In Cuba. This
country cannot afford to go back on its
pledge. These are my private views,
which | believe are those Of the demo
cratic party. | do not know what condi
tions may arise respecting Cuba, but
have never known a spsnish-Amer-
lean community capable OF self.
government, and 1t IL possible that
since we set out 10 free Cuba
from Spanish domination we may
be compelled TO pursue course
which will eventuate in the control OF
the island. While am not in favor OF
the acquisition of territory In the tropics,
this course would be less Objectionable
than any other. Cuba Is adjacent to the
United States, az is Porto Rico, but the
thought Of annexing the Philippines is
preposterous, undemocratic and not In
accordance with the principles handed
down from the days Of Thomas Jeffer-
son. We began this war to secure the
Independence Of Cuba and nothing more.
When we have accomplished that end
and Spain has indemnifed us for the
enormous war expense our mission will
be done"

New York, Aug. "a cablegram TO the

patch adds; "AguinaldO Is respectful to-
ward Admiral Dewey, Gen. Merritt and
Consul Wildman, and will go any length
to retain Wildman's good opinion, but
holds back from giving energetic help TO
the United States for ces. He will give
only negative sort Of assistance until
he knows the exact form the American
policy will take. He is disturbed by the
telegraphic reports d at the United States
will abandon the isls nds to Spain. There
are indications OF a clash between Gen.
Merritt and Aguinaldn."

publtoans of the state,
Lincoln, Aug. "A night OF caucus
ing and conference failed entirely TO
clarity the political atmosphere incident
to the fusion state convention which
meets this afternoon. IL developed EN-
Dhatically to day that the pOpulists are
master Of the situation and can dictate
terms to the other two parties which
probably will be on the basis of giving
the lieutenant governor TO the free silver
republicans, the attorney general to
the democrats and the balance OF the
state ticket to the populists. As to the
head OF the ticket, Governor Holcomb Is
more frequently mentioned a. a possible
compromise candidate, but II is doubtful
II he would accept with his knowledge OF
the populist opposition to third term.
The story connecting the name OF W.
j. Bryan with the gubernstOrial nOmina-
tion was quickly denied az absurd by the
delegates who claimed to be able to speak
for Bryan.
A surprising strength has been deyel-
oped by j. II. Edmiston, present state Oil
inspector and chairman OF the pOpulist
state central committee. It is generally
conceded that the choice for the head OF
the ticket lies between EdmistOn, Thomp-
son, Gatlin and Weir, with the chances
slightly favoring Judge Thompson.
