IN MEMoRIAM.

It seems but very short time since John Addison Porter was among us in the full vigor of a noble manhood, a noble specimen of man physically also mentally: a man who honored his state and who stood also conspicuously in the nations eye as one in the inner coun- cils of the republic during the exciting and momentous times of our war With Spain, when he was secretary to our beloved Mckinley, the nation mar tyred chief, whose tragic death later on stirred the nations pulses as they hau been stirred but few times before Both sleep-the nations chief and ms falth- ful secretary-nevermor to go Tn ana out among us Thoughts of MT For ter are recalled at this time owing to the completion and erection to hls mem- ory in our beautiful city of the dead Evergreen cemetery-ot strlKlhgly artistic memorial, the setting or which was completed yesterday under the direction of our toWnsman, MT. Bassett, head of the firm of Thomas Phillips & Son.. The execution of the work has been in progress for some time at the Phillips works, the design being the suggestion of Mrs. Porter, widow of the deceased, and being an exact copy of an Egyptian obelisk which is in the Boston Fine Arts Mu- scum. The monument is of the rarest and finest pink westerly granite and stands ten and half feet in height, its front and back width being two feet eight inches and on it's sides two feet. With the exercise of the utmost care and skill the obelisk has been given an antique appearance and ancient fin- ish, corresponding to that of the Egyp- tian original from whence the design was taken. The obelisk rests upon base of suitable dimensions and stands in one of the most beautiful portions of the cemetery, not far from the An derson monument and near the sloping bank leading down to the West river meadows, where the last rays of the setting sun finger The inscription Ie.

LORD PAUNCEFOTE STILL ST.
 LENT.

LENT.
 Washington, Feb. H. When inquiry was made at the British embassy to- day relative to the recent dispatches purporting to give the action or Lord Pauncefote just prior to the outbreak of the Spanish war, the ambassador sent word that there was absolutely nothing to be said by him for publica- ton. It is understood that if there is any occasion for Lord Pauncefote talk ing cognizance of the controversy he will communicate directly with the London foreign office, which will deter mine upon any public utterances to De made.
 Government officials here feel nat ural reluctance to being drawn into the controversy; and it is with difficulty that even unofficial statements can be had on this subject One fact remains uncontroverted, namely, that the Flu ronean ambassadors and ministers here called upon President Mckinley on April '. 1898, in the effort to prevent war. The matter now in controversy is what happened after that call, and whether Lord Pauncefote undertook to secure the support of the other Euro
  nean powers in an attempt al torclbie restraint upon the United States.
 Sitting all the facts, the conclusion reached here is that Lord Pauncefote's $ activities in the direction of interven- ton have been generally misunder- stood.
 In the end the Austrian minister turned to Lord Pauncefote as dean of the corps and sought to have him see what measure of support could be se- cured for another and more forcible representation to the United States as to the undesirabilty of war Lord Pauncefote was confident that no such proposition would carry, but he yielded so far as to submit his proposition to the other representatives of the Euro pean powers. The result justified his judgment of the outcome.

FLAT DENIAL FROM ENGLAND.

Statement to the Commons on Latest
 Phase of Cuban War Dispute.
 London Feb. 1.-The under secretary for the foreign office, Lord Cranporne' replying in the House of Commons to- day to a question of Henry Norman liberal. who asked whether the govern ment's attention has been called to the statement in the German press, and al legged to have received official confirma- tion at Berlin, to the effect that Great Britain, on April IA, 1898, through her ambassador at Washington, Lord Pauncefote, proposed fresh note Tn which the powers should declare that Europe did not regard the armed inter- vention of the United States in cuba as justifiable, and that in consequence or Germany's refusal to accept this pro- posal the step was abandoned, said:
 NO, sir. her late majesty's govern ment never proposed, through her ma iesty's ambassador or otherwise any declaration adverse to the action Of the United States in Cuba. On the con- trary, her late majesty's government declined to assent to any such pro- posal'
 Lord Cranborne's answer was receiv- ed with rounds of applause.
 MT. Norman later said to represent ative of the Associated Press: "1 ann perfectly satisfied, and, of course i'm plicitly believe the statement of the British ministers.
 John Redmond, the Irish leader said; 'That the feeling which existed Tor America in England did so much for the United States at the time of the war is all humbug. To my personal knowledge the majority of the members of the House of Commons were strongly anti-American in those days. l have no doubt Germany has evidence to prove her assertions"

AS SEEN IN WASHINGTON.
President Roosevelt Criticised for
 Terms of Proposition.

Washington, Oct. A.-(Special.)- .)-The final efforts in the direction of a settle ment of the coal strike formed an ex- elusive topic of conversation here today. Briefly stated the concensus of opinion seems to be that the miners will accept the proposition of the operators as pre- sented to President Roosevelt last night, but that they will either insist on being given some further recognition on the proposed board of arbitration than Is em- bodied in the Morgan offer. or throw on MT. Roosevelt the whole responsi- bility for seeing that the board is not stacked against them as it were.
 President Mitchell's proposition made during the recent conference here was for a board of arbitration to be appointed by the President. Under the terms of the Morgan proposition, the members of the board will be appointed by the Presi- dent it is true, but he will be heavily handicapped by the limitations placed on him, the general character of each mem Der specified by the operators. He is be- ing very generally criticised Tor allowing himself to be thus tied down.
 It is pointed out as a notorious fact that Mir. Morgan is opposed to MT. Roosevelt politically, and it is believed that the latter has been compelled to make some very material concessions in order to in- duce the magnate to interest himself In the premises It is even hinted that these concessions involve the political sacrifice of MT. Roosevelt himself.
 It is believed that the coal strike has gone so far that a settlement at this time will fail to advance the interests Of the Republican party at the forthcoming elections. During the winter months the consumption of coal exceeds the pro- duction and 1t would not therefore De possible for the mines to get out at once A sufficient quantity to bring the price down to a normal level even though work were to be resumed tomorrow.
 Men who have been in the coal helds and who are acquainted with conditions prevailing there and elsewhere, say un- hesitatingly that the immediate resump- tion of work in the mines will not enect the price of fuel for weeks and perhaps months.

A TARIFF COMMISSION
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILL
 RECOMMEND ONE.
So Says Postmaster General Payne in an Interview-A Reduction of Import Duty on Certain
 Products.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. H-Postmaster General Henry C. Payne. in an interview today said that the annual message of President Roosevelt to Congress would probably recommend that a permanent Tariff Commission be appointed.
 The Presidents views in regard to the revision of the tariff are substantially the same as those given by Senator Spooner in his speech last night" said MT. Payne. He will probably favor a reduction of import duties upon products which no longer need protection. He Is also inclined to favor the creation of a permanent Tariff Commission which can at all tlpes receive testimony subject to expert consideration concerning the vary ing interests of production and trade; submitting their reports and recommen- dations to Congress, as other Depart ments Of the national government This will insure the thorough and careful compilation of all information accessible and will save the Congressional commit tees a vast amount of labor. This was the policy outlined by the President In his speech at Logansport. Ind. which he had prepared for delivery at Milwaukee and which, it is safe to predict. will be em- bodied in his annual message to Congress- He is strongly in earnest in these views as well as those in relation to reciproc- ity as a feature of our commercial in tercourse with foreign nations.
 Since the adjournment of Congress overwhelming manifestations that the people favor reciprocity with Cuba indi- cate that the opposition to that measure has faded away and that Congress will at an early day redeem the pledge made by President Mckinley for reciprocal trade relations with the young republic" {"
