Our Foreign Relations.

New York, July Elm today's issue of
the Independent appear various articles
upon the foreign relations of the United
States and expansion. Congressman HIT.
chairman of the committee on foreign re-
lationa, writes:
There are some who say the lust for
military glory has been the cause of the
downfall of all the republics of the past
but that is not true. The past had few
true republics. certainly not at any all
comparable with the United States. a re-
public organized on the principles Of rep
resentarVe government by all. We are
making precedentts. There seems to be
great war cloud forming over China
and the forces mastering there are mighty
enough to produce war of the greatest
magnitude. But see no reason that will
require us to join the conflict, if conflict
there is to. e. The only interest we have
IN the matter is trade interest and our
great epochical wars have never had their
origin in amy thing so sordid'
Senator John T. Morgan of Alabama
writes:
''Those who lament and decry the con-
duct of our government in dealing with
the Philippines as being violative Of our
constitution are too late to accomplish
much else than to echo the pathetic ap-
peals of Aguinaldo that we do not DESTROY
our government in order to save the Fill
ipros from the foul power of dictator
Ship 1t IS not far to go nor is the way
obscure to find IN the constitution of the
United States, expressed power given to
congress to do what was done in Louis
lana and Hawaii and what self-re-
spect compels US to do in the Philippine
islands. The flag we have planted on the
Philippines is consecrated to the same

Ex-senator George F. Edmuntls, argu-
ing against expansion, demands that the
government disclose to the people pre-
cisely what took place before the capture
of Manila and what promises were made
the Filipinos. He asks if Spain had any
thing but a pretended" sovereignty to
cede and demands the rea son for the sud-
den turning of the Filipinos' friendship
into hostility. He concludes: First, let
us know the whole truth of what has hap
pened and then Perhaps the advocates Of
glory or dominion or trade of civilization
and religion advanced by the cannon and
the bayonet and supported by the blood
and treasure of our people, can point out
to us how these are the ways of pleas
antness and peace"

Consul General Mason, of Berlin, under
date of September l, 1899, sends to the
State Department report giving a de-
scription of an association organized in
Berlin some years ago. for the purpose of
applying a new process Of colored photo
eravure to the reproduction of the mas
terpieces in the royal galleries of Europe.
The educational character of the work,
Mr.. Mason thinks, makes it worthy Of
notice. The report reads:
1T will doubtless interest the friends
of esthetic culture in America to know
that society in Berlin, known as the
'Vereinigung der Kunstfreunde fur die
amtlichen Publicationen der Koniglchen
National Gallerie' (Union of Friends of
Art for the Official Publication of the
Royal National Galleries), which is organ
lied under a charter issued by the Prus-
sian Ministry of Worship and Education,
is about to send a delegate to our country
for the purpose of establishing a branch
office in the United States. As its name
implies, the society is the vehicle for dis

MORE COMPLAINTS MADE.
Oyster Boat Captains Again Attack
Wholesale Dealers.

The Potomac oyster runners, whose boats
| are engaged in traffic between the dredging
I grounds of the lower Potomac and this
city. made public another alleged grievance
against the wholesalers today.
number OF oyster boat captains ex-
pressed great Indignation against the deal
ers. They criticised strongly the state
| ments made by the wholesale dealers. They
| resent the idea conveyed that the wholesale
dealers buy their oysters from them
through feeling of charity. and say that
should they wait for such a demonstration
OF kindly feeling they would starve to
death. Particular emphasis is laid upon
the proposition that were 1t not for the
fact that the wholesale dealers can pur-
chase their oysters from the local carriers
at considerable advantage to themselves
they would never think of buying the 5i-
valves at home. Said one captain:
THE oyster dealers are in the business
to make money and lots of it. If by going
to Baltimore Annapolis or Norfolk to pur-
chase their oysters they can get them
cheaper by sacrificing quality, they would
do 1t every time. This is just what they
have been doing. as the public must be
aware. / never have known of a time when
the general grade Of oysters in the market
has been so poor as it is now"
OF the large firms who deal exclusively
in oysters in the city there are only three
which patronize the home market to any
extent. These, the oystermen say. are the
only ones who believe in giving their Gus
toners a fair return for their money.
The situation as 1t effects the carriers
has not improved within the last two or
three weeks, and but comparatively small
number of boats are making their regular
trips. These are not loaded to their capac-
ity. 1t is estimated by the boat captains
that their trade has fallen off during the
present season at least IS per cent.
The sentiment among the vessel owners
against the wholesale dealers is very bitter
and denunciations of their practice of
abandoning a home industry are to be
heard on all sides. The boat captains are
considering the advisability of forming an
association, by which they hope to better
protect their interests. One Of the first
things to be undertaken by this organiza-
ton after it is formed will be, it is said,
to improve the existing conditions 1t is
further stated that q committee will be ap-
pointed to confer with the wholesale deal
ers and establish a uniform scale of prices
which will have sufficient elasticity to meet
any and all Influences which bear upon the
trade.

people in general. fac simile copies in
colors of the great masterpieces and
famous paintings in the royal galleries in
Europe. thus planting the seeds of art
education in the minds of the rising gen.
Grafton. and fostering among the intelli-
gent classes a cultivated taste for whole
some art.
'.As particular stress has been laid by
the most eminent authorities in American
art education upon the fact that, much
as our own art culture has improved within
the last twenty years, the improvement in
refined esthetic taste has not kept lace
with it, unless in exceptional individuals,
and that it has been Of necessity limited
more or less to the wealthier classes. the
establishment of a branch of the Art Pa
irons Society of the Royal National CAL
leries in the United States seems to de-
serve the earnest attention of our art
educators at home.
THE popularity which the society enjoys
here and the success which has crowned its
efforts must be accredited to the artistic
standard of its productions, which rise far
above the meaningless black-and-white
prints. cheap chromos, photogr avures, etc,
that food the German art market. This
superiority is que, IN the main, TO the pc
culiar process, owned and employed by the
society in its reproductions. a process
which, in due course. it intends to trans
plant to the United States. 1t differs
in its method from any heretofore en-
ployed, inasmuch as it enables the re-
reproducing artist not only to create true
fac SMILES of the original in every outline,
by means Of photography and steel etching.
but also to produce the depth Of co.oring
and the peculiarities of manner OF each
master by a special employment OF the
colors called heliotint, thus reproducing the
handiwork of the artists.
The process, although an intricate and
costly one, has not been patented: but

tions Of the plates in some Of the stages

HUGHES CASE GoEs TO THE JURY.
Final Instruction Given in Trial of
M0mmm for umshnnI,s Dcuih.

MASON CITY, Ia, Feb. 23.-(Special
Telegram.)-State Attorney Telford closed
his address to the jury in the Hughes MUIR
der case at $3.50 o'clock this afternoon.
Judge John c.. Sherwin gave instructions to
the jury, considered by both sides fair and
impartial. He said that the individual opin-
ion OF jurors must be set aside and verdict
rendered on evidence alone and that no
amount of probabilities could be sufficient
to convict. A humane provision of law, he
said, looks to Lottie NJ. Hughes as inno-
cent until she is proved guilty. Jurors are
the sole judges of credibility of witnesses
and their interests and moral standing
should be duly considered. The defendant
must be considered a competent witness in
her " behalf and her testimony have the
same weight as the testimony of others.
Jesse Goude, Judge Sherwin added, is
what the law considers an accomplice and
his evidence should be weighed carefully.
The jury must be satisfied that the de-
PENDANT was so infatuated and her affections
so alienated from her husband that such a
crime could be committed by her, At the
retirement Of jury and dismissal OF court the
maintained the same indifference
she has assumed at most times during the
trial.
