ALL WOULD HAVE TO AGREE.
EngInnd's stand on Exemption of
Private Property at Sea.

private property at Sea.
London, June S.--The Times, in an edi-
torial discussing the proposal of the Unit
ed States delegation at the peace confer
ence to exempt private property at sea
from capture in time of war, says:
''It must be admitted that the proposal
represents a long and honorable position
of American policy; but it would be i'm
possible for England to accept such sug-
gestion, unless al the powers were pre-
pared to bind themselves never again to
treat foodstuffs as contrabands of war
And, even then, no mere paper agreement
would afford us adequate security in so
vital a matter. If commerce is no longer
to be attacked at sea, all the powers
might largely reduce their naval arma-
ments, but England must needs be the
last to do so"

Reported They Sent for Prince Clar-

Kingston Jamaica, June 7-Mail advlces
from the Mosquito coast say the Indians
there have rebelled against the govern
ment OF Nicaragua, are taking the war
path and are sending delegation to in
vite Prince Clarence to head the rising,
which, it is added, will probably receive
financial support from the foreign resi-
dents of the Mosquito coast.
Prince Clarence is not at Kingston, but
he recently declared he would never break
faith with the British government, pre-
ferring his easy retirement here to active
life as King of the Mosquito coast.
Prince Clarence otherwise Chief Clar-
ence, the former ruler of the Mosquito
coast, is now about 25 years old. Some
five years ago, as hereditary chief of the
Mosquito coast territory, he came into
power over about 10000 subjects. Nicara-
qua at that time had begun to encroach
on the Mosquito territory and Chief Clar-
once resisted successfully.
But the state Of affairs which followed
compelled the United States consul at
Blueticlds, the principal port aud city of
the Mosquito coast, to ask protection for
the Americans there, and Chief Clarence,
after repeated defeats, was compelled TO
seek refuge on board the United States
cruiser Marblehead.
In August, 1891. he landed at Kingston.
Jamaica, and has since been a pensioner of
the British government which formally
exercised a protectorate over the Mosquito
coast.
