The RawIins square Amendment.

Having already passed a bill to the same
feet the Senate was asked yesterday to
adopt an amendment to the sundry civil bill
granting the use of Rawlins Square in this
lily 10 the Daughters of the American
Revolution as a building site. 1t appears
hat there il little or no chance that the
-eparate measure Will secure favorable con-
-ideration by the House at this session.

purpose by the amendment method. which

reedings. II is well known that there are
many senators who stand firmly opposed 10
any further invasion of the parks of the

tgainst such spoliation, whatever the pur-
pose. Owing To the circumstances under
which the separate Rawlins Square bill was
PASSED the other day, they had no oppor-
unity to express their disapproval of this
project u which it may reasonably be be-
ieVed they are now opposed. Accordingly.

amendment comes up for consideration.
should il be favorably reported by com
mittee. these senators Will present weighty
and convincing arguments against such a
violation Of the park principle, reinforced,
as already pointed out in The Star, by the
very terms in which the separate bill was
passed by the Senate. This bill declared in
fleet that the grant Of the square was so
-eriou5 breach of the city's plan that 1t
must not be followed by future grants to
private parties for any purpose whatsoever
Thus there is opportunity ahead for square

The Trouble With CisnerOs.
From the Baltimore Herald.

To be kept out of honors and emoluments
50 long vexes the righteous soul of Senior
Cisneros. He conceives the arrangement to
be most arbitrary and to suggest nothing
50 much as a disposition to hold on. Hence
the outbreak of evaporation from patriot
who was never especially noted for pru-
dence and moderation.
But such vitrioic suffering need disturb
no one. Least of all will ii turn us aside
from the noble purpose of giving to Cuba
a form of government that shall justify our
Intervention and the expulsion of the Span
iards In thus snarling at the United
States Cisneros represents himself chiefly
The great body of the people entertain a
more adequate appreciation of our services
and are not ready to turn the muskets
which were leveied at the troops of Spain
against us. This is amply evidenced by
acceptance of the basis of our future re-
lations toward the island, as proposed by
the administration.

The Late Queens Fortune.
From tn, Boston Herald

The late Queen Victoria's fortune turns
out to be considerably below the popular
estimates, according to the latest figuring
on the subject. And yet 1t Is more than
probable that this calculation is no more to
be relied upon than the earlier ones. The
private resources of royalty are something
that have always baffied popular arithmetic,
and quite likely they always will. They
are exempt from all inquisitorial processes,
and information concerning them is rarely
volunteered by those who have accurate
knowledge of them.
