NEW ST. AUGUSTINE HOTEL.
Plans for Another to he Added to
the City's Handsome Structures.

Plans for Another to he Added to
the City's Handsome Structures.
st. Augustine, Fla, March 3.-An-
other palatial hotel will be erected dur
ing the coming summer and complete
the architectural symposium of beau
tiful structures around the Alameda,
which will still further increase the
fame of st. Augustine as a great win
ter resort. Negotiations which have
been pending for some time between
Mr.. Ira C. Rinehart and the Smith
estate, on which the Villa Zorayda and
Hotel Granada are situated, were closed
to-day, and long lease of the prop
erty has been secured by Mr.. Rinehart.
The Granada will be torn down at the
close of the season, and in it's place
will be erected a 250-room hotel, which
will be one of the finest and best
equipped hotels of its size in the
United States.
1t is quite likely that the architects
who are to design the structure will
be the firm of Carrere & Hastings, who
were the architects of the Ponce De
Leon and Alcazar. No effort will be
spared to make it ornate and beauti-
full and it is understood that in it's
general features it will harmonic with
the architecture of the two magnificent
hotels which first brought the name of
Carrere & Hastings so prominently be-
fore the public. The hotel will be sup
piled with steam heat and electric light
plant, and will be run both on the
American and European plans. H. w.
Wachenhusen, who has been the man.
ager of the present hotel for the past
eight years, and has by his personality
and his ability to handle the travelling
public made the hotel popular re-
sort in spite of itself. will assume the
management of the new structure. 1t
will be ready by December.
Extensive improvements are also con-
templated for Villa Zorayda, now the
finest club house in the country, which
will be renovated, beautified and
strengthened. 1t is the most important
hotel transaction that has been con-
summated in st. Augustine since the
opening of the Flagler system of no.

MONROE DOCTRINE
BUT PRETENCE
Celebrated German Political Economist Dis
parases the Cherished Policy.

Berlin, March 3.-"The Monroe doc
trine is an empty pretension, behind
which is neither energetic nor actual
power"
Thus Prof. Adolf Wagner, the cele-
brated political economist of Berlin
University, begins his reply to two
questions submitted by correspondent
Whether the Monroe doctrine was in
moral sense as binding as information
al law, and what action seems dictated
first in the interest of the German peo-
pie. and then in the interest of the Eu-
ropean nations.
Scarcely could such a doctrine be
forced upon a conquered people after
extraordinary Victories continues the
professor. mo people and no great
ruler ever proclaimed such a doctrine.
Neither England nor Russia, nor Ma
poleon, at the hight of his power, ever
made a similar pretension. But not
even the United States predominant in
terests are behind this unheard of as
sumption. South America is neither
geographically nor historically so al
led with North America and the United
states, as to justify such a pretension
even from a North American stand
point
Answering the second question, Prof.
Wagner says:
IT is only the divisions of European
politics and lack of insight into and
recognition of the solidarity of the in
terests of Middle. Western and South
ern Europe, which hitherto has been
ana VIII remain the chief seats of
human civilization, that explains why
Europe, why Germany even takes this
empty pretension into consideration.
for every European country's practical
political course will naturally DEPEND
solely upon its interests, and ac-
cordingly, upon considerations of
strength. Therefore. any binding en-

gagement in advance regarding this
pretensious doctrine of union appears
to be a wrong policy.
From the standpoint, too, of the
wider Germanic races. a simple recog
milton of the Monroe doctrine would
be false step. even If it were set
thing the world question whether the
Germanic or Romantic elements should
dominate the world. AS a member of
the Germanic race. 1. do not want to
see the Romantic element pressed to
the wall, because 1t is indispensable
to the worlds civilization and is a
necessary complement to Germanic
culture This applies to Italy and
France. and even to Spain. What do
we Germans owe them? What would
our civilization be without Italy and
without France? They are as indis-
pensable to us as to the Chassis peoples
Were.
mo objective member of the Ger
manic race can wish to see the world
exclusively Germanic, but If we once
concede the United States predoml-
nance in South America, according to
the Monroe pretensions, would German
interests be promoted thereby? Would
not we Germans be completely pressed
to the wall by the English element on
both sides of the sea? We really have
derance of the United States or Eng
land or both. The worlds civilization
would hardly be advanced thereby.
Aside from some technical and busi-
ness spheres, what have the United
States yet done of importance for the
real civilization of the world? What
have they done that has deserved to
be named in the same breath with the
achievements of italy and France?
Middle, Western and Southern Eu-
ropeans hold yourselves together
against the East as we'll as the West.
That seems to me to be the only right
answer to the Monroe pretensions. The
Germanic people should not act against,
but should act with the Romantic peo-
pies. That would serve the true in
terests of the civilization of the
world

A Jury OF HIS PEERS"
BrownfieId's Jury WAS white,
Hence His Appeal.

Beaufort, S. c., March 3.-Lawyer
w. ]. Whipper has returned from

United States Supreme Court to set
aside the judgment and sentence rem
dered last November in Georgetown, s.
c., against John Brownfield. colored,
for the killing of J. c. Skurry, white
man, about two years ago. The APP
peal was made on the ground that no
colored man was on the jury. the pre-
sumption being that the white jury
did not give him a fair trial. The
decision is expected within thirty days.
Brownfield was sentenced to be hang
ed by the Georgetown court. At the
time of it's occurrence this was consid-
cred a case of deliberate murder.
Whipper appears to be confident that
his petition will be granted.
