Italy Does Not Care to Exhibit at St.
Louis Exposition.

Rome, Jan. S0.-In the Chamber of
Deputies, today, Signor Fulci, under
secretary of commerce, opposed the Of

Louis Exposition, because, he said, it

THE CABINET MEETING.
Venezuela and Philippines Considered
early Action in Latter Hoped.

Washington, Jan. 30.-At the cabinet
meeting, today, all the members were
present, Secretary Moody having re-
turned from his brief vacation. His
condition is much improved. Relative
to the Venezuelan question the action
taken in Congress for Strengthening
coast defences and improving the naval
and military establishments generally
was cordially approved. 1t is made
clear that the United States is not ex-
pecting and is not looking for trouble,
but the administration Is determined
not to be unprepared for any situation
which may arise.
Some consideration was given to the
Philippine legislation pending before
Congress. Before the cabinet met Sec
retary Root was in conference for a
long time with the President in regard
to it. While it is recognized that the
legislative situation at the Capitol is
complicated by the attitude assumed by
the Senate upon the statehood contest,
the hope is expressed by administration
officials that the important legislation
demanded at this time may be enacted.
Secretary Moody indicated after the
meeting that a decision might be reach
ed soon concerning the bids for the
nrst-class cruisers Washington and
and Tennessee.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Captain Mahan Gives England Some
Pointers on Subject.

New York, Jan. 30.-The February num-
Der Of the National Review, says a dis
patch from London to the Herald, con-
tains an article by Captain Mahan on the

out that the United States considers il
essential to her interests and to those
of peace to withstand the beginning Of
action which might lead to European in
PREVENTION in the international concession
of an American state
Dealing with the Venezuelan dispute.
Captain Mahan remarks:
Such an occurrence as the cxistin.,
difficulty between Venezuela, Germany
and Great Britain engages instant and
sensitive attention. There does not imply
q doubt of the wisdom and firmness "
the government but indicates an insti,lc-
tive political apprehension not elected BY
greater and immediate interests in quar-
ters external to the American Continents
Not to invade the rights of an Ameri-
can state is to the United States an obli-
CATION with the force of law. To permit
no European state to influence them is a
matter of policy.
THE United States is inevitably the
preponderant American power, but she
does not aspire to be paramount She
does not find the true comp lement of the
Monroe doctrine in an underlined control
over American states exercised by her
and denied to Europe.
Its cOrrelative is abStention from inter-
ference in questions territorially Euro
