her. and her friends have often re-
marked that no matter how she was
feeling she always retained her high
color. That brought about the catas-
trophe. She went to French Lick to
drink the waters and take the sui
phur baths. She took only one. When
she looked at herself in the mirror
after bathing she was Mortified to find
her face about The color of a slate

tor was called in. As gently as he
could that gentleman explained that
face washes containing minerals
should not be used when sulphur baths
are taken. The lady kept in her room
several days, and then came home, a
wiser if a madder woman than when
she left.

The Edwin Street Subway.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In The Star Of Thursday is a communica-
ton in reference to a request had made to
the Commissioners touching a subway at
Edwin street, Montello. For better un-
derstanding OF my request. I would say
that the villages Of Langdon, Winthrop
Heights and Montello, as well as the Lu-
theran Home, are all situated on the west
side OF the new railroad route, whilst the
railroad boulevard Is on the east side. It
Is now proposed to have no crossing be-
tween 10Th and 22d streets, distance Of
about q half mile. The boulevard comes
to our DOORS but We are not to be per
mitted to cross the track to reach 1t.
therefore asked for q subway about mid
way of this distance-against which there
can be no reasonable objection II the en-
gineering viii permit.
: Two years ago the Commissioners said In
a report to the Senate that this section
greatly needed" q direct thoroughfare to
the city, which the boulevard would supply.
If we are to have this boulevard we are
certainly justified In asking way to get
to It, II practicable.
It is stated In the note in The Star. "as
an answer" to my request, that "a diagonal
street has been laid OF for the very pur-
pose OF serving the Montello and Langdon
subdivisions"

the task of making a Cuban republic, and
If we fail to do anything necessary to the
full accomplishment Of that end the failure
will be that of the republican party and
the people OF the country will undoubtedly
hold to strict account at the polls. II L
believed that the ways and means propo-
sition infringed to the breadth of a hair
upon the principle of protection no one
would be more bitterly opposed to it than
/. / beAeve, however that under existing
circumstances, and in view of our volunta-
rily assumed duty toward Cuba and of the
relations that she stands in to US, we are
not only fulfilling an obligation, but are a,so
acting n the line of the republican policy,
when we propose a reciprocity agreement
with Cuba. Furthermore, there is another
side TO the proposition which should not be
overlooked. Out of Cuban imports amount
ing last year to $66, 100000 got only S27,-
OO0O0O while Europe got the rest. There
is not the remotest reason why, under
reciprocity agreement, which will give entry
to our products under more favorable terms
than given to other nations, We ought to
have the entire Cuban market. Our bread
stuffs, meats, manufactures and, in fact,
everything Cuba consumes can be given a
market there. Her imports, now $4,000
600, would within a very few years under
proper conditions amount to $50, 600 600 or
$2O0,OO0,OGO annually and all that trade
ought to be and can be ours. 1t seems to
me a short-sighted policy not to take ad-
vantage of present conditions to esta ablish
ourselves in Cuba

feet high and half mile out of our direct
way, in place of a straight, level, stone
ballasted road, direct to the city.
1t is further alleged in the article that
the subway is "impracticable," because,
among other things, ''of the probable loca-
tion of the new Pennsylvania railroad In
regard to which 1 would most respectfully
say that no part of the new Pennsylvania
road lies within half mile of Edwin street.
Also, 1t is further stated that changes in
the location of u. V and w streets make
the idea of a subway more difficult" AS
to this, it is sufficient to say that no
changes In these streets, whatever they
may be, have the slightest relation to the
subway at Edwin street. These streets do
not come in the vicinity, nor do they cross
the railroad. nor could they aid US in reach
ing the boulevard. In what way these
streets render the problem of the subway
more difficult is indeed conundrum.
In what consists. then, the Impractical
blity" of this subway? We have the open
highway, and as l stated in my communi-
cation to the Commissioners, l think the
railroad will have an elevation of eight to
ten feet, while the street would permit
depression of three to five feet, giving
clearance of ten or more feet. This Is my
impression-I would like to see the en-
gineer's official figures-and if l am any
where near correct, where does the i'm
practica bility'' come in? If the engineers
figures show an insufficient clearance, then
the impracticability is evident; otherwise
this community has right to the subway
and should not be subjected to a lasting in
convenience without good cause.
We are not asking a grade crossing; the
subway endangers no one, nothing, and Is
small, inexpensive structure, costing the
District little or nothing.
The reasons alleged no not appear to meet
at all the existing conditions. as most Ger
tainly they do not qualify the demands OF
this community.
The only sufficient reason for a denial OF
our request would be that of inSufflcient
clearance which is not alleged.

OUR TRADE WITH SPAIN
COMMERCIAL RELATIONS RESuM-
ED WITH coRDIALITY.
Exports and Imports Show Increase,
While With Other European Coun-
tries They Show Declines.

Commercial relations between the United
States and Spain have been resumed with
apparently greater cordiality and certainly
With greater activity than ever before. The
figures of the treasury bureau of statistics
show that both The imports into the United
States from Spain and exports from the
United States to Spain We're, with single
exception, greater in the calendar year 1901
than in any preceding year. Our imports
from Spain during the year ending with
December, 1901, amounted to 81 ,oiu t,lS and
our exports to Spain We're $l6,7SJ.711. Com
pairing 1901 with 1891, it is shown that our
imports from Spain have grown from S4,-
a06.475 to S1,04O,75s, and that exports TO
Spain from the United States have in
creased from ST. SS7 AT to SIG, ,1S5711 Com
pairing present conditions with those OF
1898. 1t appears that our imports from
Spain have increased from $3,NS, 1903 in 1883
to the above mentioned figure, SI,t4o.T .T5S.
and our exports to Spain from SS,oao.41o i'll
1898 to SIG. 7S5,111, as already stated.
This growth in the commerce with Spain
is especially interesting at the present mo-
ment in view Of the fact that our exports
to many of the ether European countries
show decline. In the calendar year 1901
our exports to Austria Hungary, France,
Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal Russia,
Sweden and Norway, Switzerland and the
united kingdom show a decrease as COM
an increase from $15,2OO,917 to $16,Iso,711
On the import side. our imports from Aus
tria- Hungary Germany, Russia, Sweden
and Norway and Switzerland show de-
crease, while those from Spain have IN
creased from S.. .3S2 ,662 in 1900 to $7,O4O, IoS
in 1901.
The exports from the United States to
Spain are chiefly articles for use in manu-
featuring, cotton, lumber, crude mineral Oil
and tobacco being the principal articles In
the list, by far the largest In the list being
cotton Our imports from Spain are chiefly
fruits and nuts, wines, chemicals, corks
and cork bark, and iron ore OF special
grade not readily produced in the United
smaller proportion of the imports now than
a few years ago. due to the fact that citrus
fruits are now largely produced in the
United States. The importation OF ratsins
has also greatly reduced in value. by rea-
son of the Increased production OF raisins
in the United States. Imports Of preserved
and other fruits from Spain have, on the
other hand, increased as have also those OF
almonds and other nuts
The following show the principal articles
imported into the United States from and
exported from the United States to Spain
during the fiscal year 1901, the detailed fig
ures for the calendar year not being at
present available.

The Sidewalk Laying Rule.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The District Commissioners answer COM
plants Of citizens as to worn-out and dan
gerous sidewalks with the suggestion that
the proper correction in such cases would
be a new cement construction, but that
under their rule and practice they will not
order such Improvement unless requested
by a representative percentage of the own
ers Of abutting property"
Here we have the miserable cause Of the
existence of worn-out sidewalks in the CEN
ter Of Washington. Though they are within
a couple Of blocks of the treasury or White
House, and are used by the greatest num-
Der OF pedestrians, and though they We're
laid in the time Of Governor Shepherd and
have never been repaired; though their sur
face Is undulating as plowed field; though
they hold puddles of water after rain in
which ducks could swim, they Will not be
replaced II a majority Of the owners Of
abutting property are lacking In public
spirit and therefore do not ask for a new
walk. Isn't this rule a nice premium upon
Conservatism" While it is true that 1t is
a grave injustice to impose percentage Of
the cost (one-third I believe it is) on the
owners of abutting property it is the law,
and must be done until the law Is changed
and such improvements made at the general
cost The injustice Of the law is, however,
no reason why the public comfort, con-
venience and safety should be discegarded

waiting for a majority Of the owners Of
the abutting property to ask for the i'm

ter Of the town, where the property Is most
valuable. it Is owned most frequently by
individuals who are not overburdened with
civic patriotism, and who do not worry IL
the walk in front Of their property is rough
and worn out. and has been SO for dozen
years.
What want to know is what right have
the Commissioners to regard the wishes
of q majority Of the owners Of abutting
property when by so doing they must dis
regard not only the wishes Of the minority
Of the owners, but also must disregard
the comfort, safety and convenience of
the public? If ever there was vicious rule
or practice in municipal administration 1t Is
this, and point to its results as proving
the truth of my criticism. point to side
walks within two blocks Of the treasury
laid thirty years ago. SO rough that ladies
preferably walk in the street with the
horses, and visitors to the city cry shame!

Sanford B. Dole.
litor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
There seems to be tempest in a tea
pot in regard to the governship of Ha-
wall Rumor says that the President in his
anxiety for harmony on the islands would
make change in the governorship. There
Is much "sculduggery" going on, which on
being sifted proves to have its origin, like
the origin Of the word "sculduggery,
among the scullions who cleaned the pots
in the kit chens of the barons and which
unfortunately sometimes brought the
barons into battle before the origin OF the
row could be discovered.
The attempt has been made to prejudice
the President against Mr.. Dole by assert
ing that he advocated neutrality for Ha-
wall at the commencement Of the Spanish
war. Fortunately like other innuendoes
this Is easily disproven. as the minutes OF
the privy council and correspondence Of the
government will conclusively show the at
titude Of Hawaii as guided by Mr.. Dole.
The only cause for thought of neutrality
was that should Hawaii coalesce with the
United States it's protection by war ves-
sci, or more, might tend to detract from
the strength of the navy Of the latter. But
without waiting to obtain the opinion or the
government Of the United States Hawaii
United States and suffer what might come
from Spain, the extent OF whose navy In
the Pacific was unknown to 1t.
In the matter Of Mr.. Dole's fine sense OF
honor his action in regard to Chinese Inn
migration might be quoted. When the gov
ernment of Hawaii proffered annexation to
the United States among other things 1t
stated that Chinese immigration should
cease" Acting on that proffer, which
might never have been accepted but for
Dewey's victory at Manila, Mr.. Dole or
dered that the issuance OF laborers' permits
for Chinese should cease fnstanter. This
was long before annexation was accom-
plished. and the loss of the labor which
might have been obtained In the interim has
seriously affected the finances Of the is
lands Many said that Mr.. Dole was un-
necessarily honest in that matter. We have
known wealthy firms in San Francisco who
prided themselves on being above dealing
in opium who, whel they saw the duty was
to be raised. rushed orders to China for
great quantities Of opium in order to get 1t
in before the highe er duty went into effect.
They were accredited with smartness.
Every attempt to throw mud at Mr.. Dole
merely results In raising him higher In the
estimation Of Americans.
