was also a great Venetian argosy end sew
eral transports. Many more vessels could
have been captured had the British sup
ply OF powder and shot not have given
out.
Taken altogether, the overwhelming de-
feat OF the Wanted Spanish fleet by a
mere squadron of British war vessels was
one of the grandest and most ulustrious
achievements in naval history.
Two months later-at the end Of Sep
tember-the Spanish admiral, with sixty
shattered ships out of the l65 vessels that
sailed, returned to Santander, Spain. The
men were worn with hunger. cold and
sickness. This was the end of all efforts
on the part of Spain to humiliate England
on the high seas. That was her first ex-
perience with a nation of the Anglo Saxon
race. and her second experience. that with
the United States. will be even more Bit

pertinent point:
sAnother ground OF foreign iuterfer-
ence in the Internal affairs Of . sover-
eign state Is that Of humanity. IT being
done for the purposes Of stopping the
eHusion Of blood caused by protracted
and desola.ing civil war IN tse-bosom OF

II Is Interesting to observe how Eng
land acted IN the case OK Greece The
Austrian admiral was cooperating with
Turkey. Admiral Codrington sent g
brief dispatch to the Austrian. warning
him that II he did not withdraw he
would be blown out Of water" He
withdrew.
Austria herself gives as , precedent
by her action in sending $1,000 Aus
TRANS into the kingdom OF Naples
when an instruction broke out. with
out giving declaration Of war. Again
in lS4s the North Italian principaiities
were occupied by Austria in the inter
ests Of order" and this step was sane
toned by the other powers because the
disturbed condition of that country was
a menace to the peace OF Austria. In
1878. Bosnia and Herzegovina were both
occupied and have been held since on
the plea that Turkey had ceased to
maintain order.
England and France In 1850 Joined in
intervening on behalf OF Belgium, on
the ground that the Dutch attempt to
suppress the Belgian revolt threatened
the peace OF Europe.
France occupied Rome I'm 1851 in the
general interests Of European order;
twice within this century has Spain
been occupied by French troops on the
same plea. France occupied Algeria
and later took possession Of Tunis. al
though both belonged to Turkey, be-
cause that country could not maintain
order.
We can only briefly refer to these more
conspicuous examples of European in
tervention. but both they and the au-
thorities we have cited on the general
principle Of Intervention afford the most
ample justification for any steps We
may take to put an end to the awful
conditions existing In Cuba, TO say
nothing of the selfish interests we might
assume on the ground that within the
past few years $4,000, 900 Of American
property has been destroyed in Cuba,
that our enormous trade with the island
Is interrupted, that we are under a
heavy expense in watching our coast
to prevent filibustering, and that
great responsibility has been unwel-
comely thrust upon us.
