1sTHMIAN CANAL CONFUSION.
Admiral Walker Discusses Its Work
With the President.

Admiral Walker, President of the
Isthmian Canal Commission, called upon
the President and the Secre-
tary of State yesterday to notify
them of the return to the United States Of
that part of the Commission under his
immediate direction.
Admiral Walker had a long interview
with President Mckinley. during which
the work accomplished by the Commits
sion on its recent trip was fully discussed.
Mr.. Mckinley was informed that the Com
mission will not be able to resume its
sessions until the two members now on
the isthmus conducting explorations re-
turn to the United States. The Commits
sioners will not endeavor to submit a
final report during the present session of
Congress and are averse to making Il
preliminary statement OF the probable cost
of the canal. They desire time in which
to make an accurate and careful compila-
tion OF statistics gathered BY them. and
point out that any attempt to hurry in a
matter of such Importance will prove I'M
satisfactory. The Commissioners decline
to make a forecast of their report

POLITICS IN CUBA.
Platform Adopted by tho New Con-
servatiSe Party.

HAVANA. April 5.-The conservative
elements in Cuban politics held meeting
last night and adopted the name Demo-
cratic Union for the new party. \ plat
form was adopted setting forth the pur
poses of the party. 1t declares that the
Paris Treaty is the fundamental law OF the
present political order in Cuba, it being
more binding and higher than the joint
resolution of the American Congress With
this principle as a basis the enw party
believes that the intervening Government
should remain here long enough to estab-
fish stable government. putting an end
to the political and administrative disor-
ganization and perturbation and protect
ing the moral and material interests OF
the island. This is the keynote OF the
platform.
The party does not yield a point In its
claim for independence. but does not wish
it until the country has been brought to
a state where 1t will be capable OF self
administration. To reach this end the
party proposes and aspires to help the in
tervening Government. 1t desires TO OBJ
tain complete security for the public peace,
the reconstruction OF the sources of wealth,
the establishment Of the principle Of su-
thority. the inviolability of the law. leg
islative and financial reforms with a re-
duction OF taxation II possible, and the
protection of all rights acquired under
the Treaty OF Paris.
The party will also seek to bring about
the popular election OF ayuntamicntos and
the creation by popular vote OF state
advisory board in the absence OF legisla-
tive body, to participate in the executive
function. 1t will insist upon scrupulous
respect for the rights OF foreigners As
to independence, when it Genes, the party
wants perfect harmony with the United
States with commercial treaties that will
be advantageous TO both countries.
Gen. Maya Rodriguez, President of
the party, and forty other officers of the
revolution. signed the platform. together
with the leaders of the former Autono-
mist party. On paper this organization is
the strongest in Cuba, but 1t lacks as yet

Looking Forward.

Ffom the Journal Of Commerce)
\ large section Of the Republican party has cvi-
IDENTIFY reached the conviction that the protective
system, while ceasng t. be an absolute necessity
to some great branches OF industry. may also he
come an obstacle to the development OF foreign
trade. They are, therefore, prepared for . gradual
change OF the tarif system in the direction OF
greater hberality. and they resent. with a good
deal OF feeling the attempted dictdtion OF highly
protected manufacturers and lsTiculturists. The
unsupported strength OF this feeling in some Of
the Western and Northwestern States gives evil

with which the party leaders will have TO reckon
II they are to avert party dissolution. 1t is not
