Public men at the capital have been open in their declarations that the time for annexation of Cuba to this country is near at hand. The assault on the Allianea is taken as an intimation that Spain will stand no further trifling with Cuban affaire. Mr. Gresham's retort is extremely fiery. In substance, he commands the Spanish

Government to apologize and to promptly instruct its naval commanders not to interfere with ships flying the American flag. The friendly relations between this country and Spain have to be considered when war talk begins, but there is no doubt that in any other circumstances the tone of the message would be provocative of a conflict. The message in full is as follows: “This department is informed that on ■ the Sth inst. the United States mail steamship Allianca, on her homeward voyage from Coisn to New York, when six miles from the coast of Cuba, off Cape Maysl was repeatedly fired upon by a Spanish gunboat, with solid shot, which, fortunately, fell short. “The windward passage where this occurred is the natural and usual highway for vessels plying between ports of the : United States and the Caribbean sea Through it several regular lines of American mail and commercial steamers pass weekly within sight of Cape Maysi. They are well known and their voyage em braces no Cuban port of call. Forcible interference with them cannot be claimed as a belligerent act, whether they pas* within three miles of the Cuban coast or not. and can under no circumstances be tolerated, when no state of war exists. “This Government will expect prompt disavowal of the unauthorized act and due expression of regret on the part of Spain, and it must insist that immediate | and positive orders be given to Spanish ! naval commanders not to interfere with I legitimate American commerce passing through that channel, and prohibiting all acts wantonly imperiling life and property lawfully under the flag of the United States. “Y’ou will communicate this to the minister of foreign affairs and nrge the importance of prompt and satisfactory response.’* One of the precedents which have Wen unearthed and brought to the attention of Acting Secretary Uhl as having a direct bearing upon the Allianca incident was found in the proceedings of the Ala bama claims commission. In one of the ■ decisions announced by Judge French the court held there was no authority for the stoppage or detention of a mail steamer which is pursuing her usual route, even if that route lay at places within the three-mile shore limit and so within the marine jurisdiction of the power seeking to stop the ship. If this is held to be sound doctrine, then, of course, the Span ish Government will make reparation for the action of its cruiser, even should it appear that the Allianca was within three miles of Cape Mais, as the Spanish min ister in Washington believes. On the other hand, if this decision is not in effect then what is known as the headland theory of jurisdiction will probably play an important part in the adjustment of the matter. According to the contention of Great Britain in the Fortune Bay fisheries case, in which the United States has acquiesced, the line of marine jurisdiction is drawn three miles from a line running acrvss from headland to headland in the case of a bay or a depression in the general coast line. The Spanish authorities evidently take the position at this time, in the absence of exact advices, that the Allianca was within such a line and ao within their jurisdiction, although the •hip may have been actually more than three miles from the nearest shore. Crop Conditions. Reports have been received from the Farmers’ Review correspondents in Illi-1 yiois, Ohio. Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, i Jd.iftsouri, Kansas, Nebraska, lowa, Wis- |

Very little ZPezing out is reported. The plant is wma-H in some localities, but this will I procr of no great moment if the crop be Det subjected to hard experiences in the ’ way of thawing and freezing. Wheat on okiver sod teems doing very well. Rye has been quite extensively sown, and is doing finely. In Indiana the conditions are the same as in Illinois quite largely. Little injury is reported from freezing. The snow I saved it, and prospects are now good, though the plant is in some counties thin Jon the ground and small. Rye has been • very extensively sown, but is in average condition. . ’ In Ohio the crop is everywhere fair to ' good, though reported uneven in some . ■ counties. Rye is doing well and has been ; i quite extensively sown. Michigan reports conditions good, so far I as known, but snow still covers much of . the crop. The greatest danger at present * comes from ice blankets formed by melt- ‘ ing drifts. Rye is good. The crop in Missouri is not all that could be desired. A good many counties report it only fair or poor, from varying conditions. Too dry weather last fall was one of the principal causes of the present condition. The snow has done much to improve it. Enough counties report the condition as good to bring the whole IState up to an average of fair. Rye, where planted, is generally good. Kansas, as usual, reports greatJy vary-

ing conditions. Some localities n-port outlook as unusually good, while others report the crop as badly blown out on sandy land or much damaged, but latesown is better. Where rain has fallen recently there is a marked improvement. Rye has been sown in quite a number of counties, and is generally good. Nebraska reports are quite good, although in some sandy localities the crop has been hurt by high winds blowing it out. Too dry is reported in some cases, but a groat many counties have excellent prospects for a crop. Rye is, on an average. better than wheat. In Kentucky conditions are very favorable, most correspondents reporting a high condition. In a few cases where the emp is now poor it is improving rapidly. The snow of the past two months | has proved of immense advantage, giving protection from the cold and moisture for spring development. Rye is generally doing well. As usual, a great many counties in lowa have sown no winter wheat. In the other counties there appears a great variation in condition. While a good many correspondents report the crop in fine shape, some say that in their counties the outlook is bad. One says: “Half crop: too dry.” Rye is fair. Wisconsin prospects are not good at present. The snow was not so much of a protection as in some other States, and much of the ground has been bare for ■ some time. This has permitted thawing and freezing to an alarming extent. It does not appear to be possible for the crop to escape without a serious disaster, except in localities where snow has remained on the fields till wry recently. Rye is not very fair in condition, but is likely to feel the adverse conditions less. In Minnesota and the Dak Mas little has been grown any year, and the conditions will not greatly affect the crop of the country. The conditions are doubtful, j both as to wheat and rye where the latter has been sown. It should be borne in mind in reading the above summary that the States that grow the largest amount of winter wheat report the conditions good, and that the adverse conditions are quite generally reported from States that grow comparatively small quantities. From this it will be that the general average of these twelve States is good, and that a large winter wheat crop may be looked for. REBELS ON THE RUN. Spanish Forces Are Driving Them from Their Strongholds. Official information by the Government of the situation in Santiago de Cuba has just been givej out. A dispatch received by the military governor of Santiago from General Garrich was forwarded to Havana. In this message General GarCUBAN REVOLUTIONARY FLAG. rich says that Colonel Santocildes, with 100 men, met a band of 400 insurgents I near Guantanamo. There was a desperate battle, lasting for an hour and a half. This battle was plainly seen from

the roofs of houses. The insurgents were defeated with a loss of fifty kitted and wounded, while the Government troops had but six men killed. Many horses and mules were killed. In his message. General Garrich commends the officers and men of the Span troops for their bravery. It is also reported by the Government that Masse, one of the insurgent leader* in Santiago, says he was misled, but la ashamod to surrender. He says there are oaly 700 men in the movement at Santiago. two-thirds of whom are negroes. Seven insurgents surrendered to the mi! itary governor of Santa Clara. Troop® which have been pursuing the insurgents in the Carthagena district have returned, as the province is now tranquil. All is quiet in the provinces of Havana, Puerto Principe, Pinas del Rio and Matanzaa. A WATERWAY TO THE LAKES. Pittaburg to Be Connected with Lake Erie by a Big Canal. At last the long-expected canal that is to connect Pittsburg with the great lakes is about to become a reality and Pittsburg's most cherished dream and ambition will be a material instead of a visionary project. Plans for two different routes have been prepared, either of which would be feasible. Oue is from the mouth of the Beaver river, via the Sbenango, to Conneaut Harbor, 0., the ether through the Mahoning valley, via Warren, to Ashtabula, O. The length of the canal by either route would be about 130 miles. On the former route there would have to be fifty locks and on the other one-third Ipss. The cost is estimated at from $27,<•00,000 to $30,000,000.

The canal will be an important factor in the commercial and industrial development of the country it traverses. Coal, which, with iron, is found in all that district, is shipped to all parts of the country. so that any and every saving in the freight will benefit the entire United States. About 4,500,000 tons of it are shipped annually by vessels from Pittsburg to the lower Ohio and Mississippi river ports. It will enable the iron industries along the line of the canal to send products to shipping ports at about per cent, of what it costs at present. The canal will provide the national Government with an easy way to defend the lakes in case of war. It will, by building up the waste places, increase the revenues of the States it traverses er affects. From a Pittsburg point of view, the canal will boom the city as it has never been boomed before. Pittsburg commerce with the great lakes in iron ore, lumber, etc., amounts to about 7,000,000 tons per year. Along the route of the canal there are fifty-seven furnaces, producing onefourth of all the iron produced iu this country. <77 Th Th® Count Casteilane's younger brother is in New York looking for bids.

NOW IT IS FINANCE. QUESTION PROPOSED FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES. Let O«r Leaders See that They Understand the Money Question Before An■nmins the Rale of Tcachera—Object Lesson for Farmers. Campaigns of Education. With the close of the Fifty-third Congress the “campaign of education" on tariff reform may be said to have closed. It is not likely that the tariff law as a whole will be touched again for a dozen years, and the only changes that may be expected will be in the way of lowering the duties from time to time as the revenue increases beyond the needs of the Government There will be no more general overhauling of tariff schedules. Whatever else the “campaign of education" has accomplished, it has instructed the people that much, at all events. That “campaign of education" maybe said to have begun in 1876, when the Democratic National Convention declared that "custom house taxation shall be only for revenue,” but. in fact, the question was hardly discussed, the issues of the war being still paramount Not much progress was made in education. however, for in 1880, w hen the Democrats declared for a "tariff for revenue only," late in the campaign, when Conkling and the Republican leaders suddenly challenged debate upon the question, the Democratic orators were so laughably incompetent to discuss it, or explain what they meant, that the party «as most ignominious ly defeated Never was a party that had such prospects of success up to the last weeks of the canvass so utterlyoverthrown and routed through the sheer ignorance of its leaders as the Democratic party was that year. Truly enough, there must be a -campaign of education,” and the education must begin at home! For the next four years the Democrats studied tariff "for revenue only" so assiduously that they omitted to make their tariff plank i quite so strong in ISM. Nevertheless the question was debated most ably by 1 the Democratic orators from the rev- ; enue standpoint, and they carried the day.

But the Senate then, as it has ever I since. stood in the way of tat iff re- , form, and again the question was submitted to the people in 1888, with the I result that tariff reform was given in I charge to its enemies. The resulting i McKinley law. and its subsequent repudiation by the people, need not be emphasized here as being the culmination of the “campaign of education." The question proposed now for educational purposes is that of finance. In the light of past experience with such campaigns would it not be well for the leaders on both sides to see that they complete their own education first before assuming the role of teachers?— Chicago Times-Herald. Look Out for Better Times. It is not easy, says the Journal of Commerce and Commercial Bulletin, to see why the trade of the country should not, from this time forward, show signs of healthy improvement During the last two years of severe depression, business has undergone a thorough purgation. Its unsound elements have been almost entirely eliminated. Prices are. as a rule, low beyond all precedent within the last generation and, from all appearances, have touched bottom. There is in no branch of business any unhealthy element of speculation. In every form of enterprise, liquidation has removed from credit the last vestiges of insolvency, and the complaint among merchants and bankers is not about the status of buyers or borrowers, but of their scarcity. Outside the purely economic conditions affecting trade, there are now virtually no causes calculated to disturb confidence in the results of current commercial operations. The tariff has ceased to be an element of commercial distrust. At present, all . indications suggest that no serious at- I tempt will be made to materially dis- | turb the new basis established by the Wilson act. The industries have already very generally adjusted themselves to the ehanged duties; and we hear of no important complaint that manufacturers find the new conditions Incompatible with earning their former rate of prefit, while some branches of trade are deriving acknowledged benefits and stimulus from the change. It Is not to be overlooked that all commercial crises are attended by certain selfcurative processes. They lay a safer basis of confidence. They weed out the impaired and effete; replace the weak in resource by the strong; and substitute old plant and methods by the most improved, so that industry makes a great economy in its operations. Thus in view of all the conditions at present affecting the business situation, It appears quite allowable to anticipate an early appearance of better times. Cheap Coal in New England. Within a few days the New York and New England Railroad Company has contracted for 50,000 tons of bituminous coal from the Beech Creek region of Pennsylvania, to be delivered in Boston at a cost of $2.50 per ton. This should lay the Nova Scotian bugaboo, which has been searing the Pennsylvania. Maryland and Virginia coal operators who have predicted ruin to their New England trade as the result of the reduction of the duty from 75 cents to 40 cents per ton. The placing of this large contract indicates that the Pennsylvania mineowners still have a firm hold on the New England market The Nova Scotia coal dealers are offering their coal in Boston, duty paid, at $2.85 per ton—a price which the domestic miners are able to meet without difficulty. Although Nova Scotian coal has not yet

secured the New England market, the reduction of -35 cents in the duty seems to have been a substantial benefit to that section by forcing down the price of American fuel. For the coal which the New York and New England Railroad Company has just bought at $2.50 there would have been paid $3 last year, and $3.25 in 1883.—Philadelphia Record. An Object-Leaaon for Our Farnen. All American planters and farmers may profit immensely by noting the last census returns of Canada, showing a very distinct decline in the agricultural population of the seven Canadian provinces. The Halifax (N. 8.) Morning Chronicle, quoting the censut figures, says: “While the farming population of the four original provinces of confederation increased from 476.922 in 1871 to 619,331 in 1881—the low tariff period—an increase of 142,409 In the decade, the farming population of Canada. as now constituted, declined 7.206 In the high tariff period from 1881 to 1891. The decline in the four old provinces was 36,277. The decline in the three maritime provinces was 18.965. These facts prove as clearly as facts can prove anything that the protective policy has Iteen a burden and an injury to our fanning interests. It has rendered farming less and less profitable, and accounts for the delay in agriculture.” It adds that in order to restore the pristine glory of farming, upon the prosperity of which the prosperity of all other industries largely depend“we must reverse oiir fatuous protective policy and inaugurate a policy of freer trade, lighter taxation, clean and economical administration.” Though we in the United States havt recently lowered our “protective" tariff somewhat, it is still inordinately high and presses with most unequal and disastrous effect upon agriculturists, who can sell their cotton for only 5 cents and their wheat for only 50 cents, while they must pay prices enormously and disproportionately higher for their clothing and other articles of consumption—all for the protection and enrichment of a few manufacturers. monopolists, and trusts. Both our own and Canadian agricul turists have suffered untold woes and losses aggregating many hundreds of millions of dollars through tariff-tax-ation. Unless they now combine against the "protectionists" and work earnestly for freer trade their future is dark and hopeless indeed. They must beware of being fooled by the false plea that "the tariff is not a tax.” —New York Herald.

A Consistent Protectionist. From a protectionist point of view Mr. David B. Jones, of San Francisco, is quite consistent when he proposes that California shall levy protective duties on the products of the Eastern States. But as this is not feasible under existing political conditions Mr. James boldly proclaims that the Pacific States should secede from the Union aud set up themselves. In this way alone, he says, can the Pacific States secure commercial ami industrial independence. He is convinced that secession can be accomplished without shedding one drop of blood. Something like this was heard on the eve of the civil war in 18(11, when it was urged that the “erring sisters” should be allowed to go in peace. But the erring sisters didn’t go. The fact, however, that Mr. Janies placards his business establishment in San Francisco with a proclamation for secession indicates that he is not alone in entertaining this treasonable sentiment on the Pacific coast Weavers’ Wages Increased. The effects of free wool are seen in increased production of textile goods and in the increased wages which manufacturers are compelled to pay to secure workers. Wages have been advanced in more than a score of large textile mills since last August On March 8 Bromley Brothers, one of the largest manufacturers of carpets in Philadelphia, granted their art square weavers an advance of 6 per cent in wages, to go into effect at once. The sixty-three manufacturers of ingraiu carpets in Philadelphia were aiso reported to favor the adoption of a uniform schedule of wages in all the mills. The weavers are selecting delegates to confer with the manufacturers and it is likely that wages will be advanced in certain mills and not reduced in any. Since 1890 wages have declined rapidly in the textile industry. Free wool has stopped the decline and made conditions favorable to the workers. A One-Sided Bargain. Mr, McKinley said recently: “We want foreign markets for our products of agriculture and manufactures, but not at the loss of a home market” He did not go on to explain, however, how our surplus products are to be disposed of. It takes at least two nations to make commerce and we can as easily be shut out from Europe as we can shut Europe out. And why does Mr. McKinley go back to the tariff and put off the financial problems with the meaningless equivocation that there is wisdom and patriotism enough in the country to relieve us of our monetary troubles?—St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The Guilty Party. The billion dollar Congress of fra grant memory, over which Czar Reed I presided, imbedded in the statutes fixed I expenditures which must be provided for from year to year by succeeding Congresses. It is not fair to charge up to the Fifty-second and Fifty-third Congresses extravagances for which the Fifty-first Congress was responsiI ble; but the party that was responsible for the billion dollar Congress does not stick at trifles. It the churches were kept open rs much as the saloons, the devil would soon be on the run.
