SPANISH RELIC.
Six Founder From the CristObal
Colon.
Congressman McCIeary Secures the Pro-
mise of One For MankatO From
Secretary Long.

Mankato is to have a cannon that was
q.aptl.red from Spain during the Late
-1npleasantness In fact it will be one
of the six Founders from Admiral Ger
vera's flagship, the Cristobal Colon
that put up such brave effort to es'
cape from the guns of the Oregon and
other of Admiral SIMPSONS fleet The
gun which Mankato is to receive no
doubt poured shells at the American
ships as they closed in.
1t is due to Congressman McCleary's
efforts that the city will have this IN
teresting relic of the great victory at
Santiago. He has received reply from
Secretary of the Navy Long saying that
that the gun would be loaned" to the
city, which means practically gift.
All that the city will be expected to do
will be to pay for the transportation
from the navy yard at Norfolk, Va.
This. the council will no doubt be glad
to do.
Congressman McCleary has secured
the promise of as much of the mount
ing of the gun as possible, including the
shield. The gun will be of three inch
bore and probably dozen feet long.
and it will make an object of interest
that any city in the country would be
anost glad to receive. 1t is Mr.. Nc
Cleary's idea that representation of a
section of ships deck should be con-
structed of plank and the gun mounted
thereon, to show the position it occu-
pies on a man Of-war.
There are but a limited number OF
cannon taken from Cervera's ships, and
Minnesota will probably not secure
more than two or three, and it is Man
kato's good fortune to get one
of them. The guns are distem-
pered by having been in the sea
for long time, but while this makes
them unserviceable for firing it does
not change their appearance.
Great credit is due to Congressman
McCleary for securing this splendid
gift to the city, which will serve to re-
call to future generations our victories
on the sea.

A FAKE INTERVIEW

Palmed on on tho PubIIc as Coming

poses Bryan and the Chicago Plat.
form.
LONDON, Sept 17-Perry Belmont
arrived in London this evening from
Paris, not having been in England since
July, nor having seen a reporter while
In Europe.
What purported to be an interview
with him, sent from London to the
United States on September 8, was the
result OF an imposition on the part OF
some one who. from what appears to
have been interested motives, reported
himself to a reporter at Euston Station,
London, as being Mr.. Belmont, and ex-
pressed the views with regard to
American politics as cabled.
Mr., Belmont this evening authorized
the statement that he has had no occa-
sion to change the views expressed to
the Associated Press on June II, on the
eve Of his sailing for Europe. and that
he consistently holds to his already
published opinions in regard to the
financial doctrines OF William Jennings
Bryan and the Chicago platform. which
he viii continue to oppose. Mr.. Bry-
ans Views in regard to the currency
are such that Mr.. Belmont could not
support him.
Mr., and Mrs. Belmont will sail for the
United States next Wednesday by the
White Star steamer TeutOnic.
