The Vinton Eagle is authority for
the statement that If Senator Dolli-
YER has ever been wrong or tardy or
evasive on any question before con-
gress the records do not show it, Dol
liver was appointed by Governor Shaw
to fill out an unexpired term. At the
Cedar Rapids convention which follow
ed that appointment Dolliver kept his
hands off and thus pleased the Cummins
men who thought his actions were very
distasteful to Shaw and the Blythe
people At Ottumwa in campaign
speech he spoke in favor Of tariff re-
vision and in speech in the senate
in 1903 he again pleased the Cum
minis people with speech on the trust
question. On the other hand out at
Wichita, Kas., last summer he took a
position opposed to that Of the Cum
minis people on the interstate commerce
commission question. AT the Chicago
national republican convention he vot-
ed with the Blythe people on the rail-
road question and in the senate COM

Warship Is -Hayti.

Washington, D. c., March 80. ~ An
American man of war Will be sent TO
Port-au- Prince to protect American
interests.
This determination was arrived at
yesterday when the state departments
received cablegram from Minister
Powell saying that serious trouble is
impending in Hayti and 1t Is doubtful
whether the authorities can maintain
peace and order on March 81 and Ap-
ril 1.
The state department Immediately
requested the navy department to dis
patch war vessel to Port Prince.
State department officials are un-s
able to explain the Significance Of the
dates March 81 and April 1, mentioned
in the cablegram from Minister P0w-
ell, as the days on which trouble might
be expected in Hayti.
The navy department, 1t is stated,
probably will send the cruiser Newark.

Guantanamo, to Port rt-au-Prince. The
distance is/but 1SO miles. and the lat-
ter port can be quickly reached. The
Brooklyn is expected to arrive at
Guantanamo today.

Washington, said last night he was
greatly surprised to hear OF Minister
Powell's cablegram, as he was NOT
aware Of any threatened trouble In his
country. He has telegraphed to the
president Of Hayti for information on
the subject.
The minister had a talk over the
telephone with the Haytian commits
sioner at New York yesterday. who
said he had received dispatch from
the president Of the republic yesterday
and that it contained no references to
a possible uprising. -
The minister is unable to understand
why the specific dates of March 81 and
April 1 are mentioned as dates on
which it is doubtful whether the au-
thorities can maintain order. So Tar
as he is aware, there is nothing OF al
unusual nature to occur on thes days

information is lacking, it is asserted
in well informed quarters that Japan
has permitted Russia to learn that
the peace conditions will be severely
rigorous and will not be responsive to
the recent sentimental appeal to Jap
ans magnanimity. In particular. it is
said that Japan's indemnity figure is
$500, ,0oo0 900 and that this stupendous
sum has proved so staggering to Rus
sian diplomacy that it is the chief cause
why peace preliminaries do not ad-
