which recently broke out here among the
university students as a protest against
the conduct of the police, who had used
whips to dispcrse the student gatherings

an extent that almost all the colleges

SPANS CABINET CRISIS.
Sagasta and His Ministry Step
Down and Out.
TIE PHILIPPINES CONTROVERSY

forced the Spanish Premier to Tcn-
der His Resignation to the queen
Regent-COrtes Declined to Indorse
the Cesslon of the Philippine Islands.
7 Madrid, March 2.-Senor Sagastn has
handed his resignation of the ministry
the queen regent. The cabinet crisis
liz eypected to last for several days, as
1t will be necessary for the queen regent
to consult with the presidents of the
chambers and other political leaders. In
the meanwhile the chambers will ah-
iourn until a new ministry il formed.
The NIinisteralists hope the queen regent
will support Senor Sugasta and dissolve
the chambers.
The ministerial crisis came to a head
with the struggle in the senate over the
question of authorizing the cession OF
the Philippine Islands to the United
States. The cabinet became convinced
of the impossibility of avoiding defeat
in the final vote on the bill The oppo.
bition, they saw, would increase, while
the government could not hope to gain
a single additional supporter. The
measure was passed by the senate, but
the government had a majority of only
two, the vote being 100 to 11S.
/ The opposition groups in the scnat"
combined to defeat the government not
on the main substance OF the bill, which
they knew was inevitable. but on an
amendment to the preamble censnrin:
the cabinet. Some Of the members ab.
stained from voting, including General

Poor Bryan's soul is being tried in va
rious ways these days. Even silver is
going back on him. II is going up like
all other things, especially wages, in
these days of republican prosperity.
Bryan got bad blow just after his de-
feat in 1896. when wheat and many 9th
er commodities advanced in price. The
advance, as everyone knew, was largely
due to his overthrow. \ year or so aft
erward, when republican legislation be-
gan to operate, wages started upward.
Now silver has joined the procession.
The consequence of this last advance
will be that If ii continues much longer
Bryan will have to drop talking about
silver. When silver goes above the 80
cent dollar line, as it may do il the adj
vance continues n little longer, he will
have to abandon it. 1t is not n silver
dollar primarily that he wants for the
wage-earners of the country, but n dis
honest dollar. The moment that silver
gets above the 50-cent dollar mark his
faith in IL will begin to wane. IT will be
getting too near the honest money line
then to be Of much use in his business.
II we are 10 nave the SiNtecH 10 one
trickery in the canvass of 1900 silver
will have to start downward long before
that time.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
UH all the talk of silver republicans
is not base fraud, why does Senator
Teller, of Colorado, processing to be
such, predict what the democracy will
do in 1900? There is dispute as to
what is necessary to be democrat, but
there can be no question that man
who supports the Bryan platform of
1896 is not republican. Senator
Teller may be honest IN advocating
50-cent dollar, but there is no honesty
in pretending that there is sucn a hu-
man being as 50-cent-dollar repub-
lican.--Indianapolis Journal.

ONE STRIKE SETTLED.
Grain ShovcIers Mt Buffalo Reach an
Agreement and VIII Return
to work.

Buffalo, y. V, May 15.-The grain
shoyelers will return to work this morn
ing under the agreement reached at
one o'clock Sunday morning AZ the con-
ference between the lake carriers and
elevator men and grain shovelers The
agreement provides that the grain shov-
elers shall receive $l.Sj per 1000 bush
els; that a superintendent shall be APP
pointed by the bishop to guard the in
terests of the men; that Il local board OF
arbitrator shall be appointed to pass
upon any grievances which may arise
in the future, and that II of Contractor
Corners boss scoopers shall he Srs-
pended pending an investigation into
the charges made by the grain shovel
ers that they are identified with saloon
interests or otherwise objectionable.
Notwithstanding the adjustment of
the grain-shoveling trouble, the tie-up
OF the coal and ore docks is said to be
quite as serious as was the strike just
ended. Practically all the coal and ore
handlers, numbering about 1900 men,
are out. The freight handlers. who
struck out Of sympathy for the grain
shovelers, now refuse to go back until
their wages are raised from % cents to
IS cents an hour.

To-day the people of the United

magistrate who in early manhood upon
many battlefields gave proof that he
so loved his country that he was willing
to give his life in her defense, and
greater love hath no man than this"

Meantime. our duty is to stand firm
~ and unalterably by the government

tablsh complete supremacy over its
foes, whether these foes be great or
small. whether a mighty nation or a
band of Philippine insurgents.-John
Barton Payne.
The world must understand that
when war does come, men of all par
ties, whatever they may think of ques-
tions that led to the war or questions
that rise out of the war, will postpone
for time all discussion that only tends
to give aid and comfort to the enemy,
and unite in cordial support of the
men who carry the flag of the United
Statcs.-George +. Adams.
No nation has ever had nobler pol
icy than that of the redemption of an
other people, and this nation would be
defiant of it's duty il at the command

When war comes there is only one
way to conduct it. 1t must be made
instant and terrible. The enemy must
be overwhelmed. So the president sent

and reduce Manila, and the president
did right.-W. ID. Foulke.
AS against our country, and in sup
