THE OLD CONSTITUTION. Ontenatol Celebration of the Unnchlag of the Old Wsr Ship. Boston, Oct. 22. —The centennial of the launching of the United States frigate Constitution was celebrated here. There was a parade participated in by the sailors and marines of the United States ships Massachusetts, Texas, Iowa and Brooklyn, the naval brigade and the naval or* ganixations. Literary exercises were held in the Old South church. Got. J Wolcott presided. Addresses were j made by the chairman. Secretary of the Navy Long and Senator llenry Cabot Lodge. Several hundred school children sang patriotic songs. At night the vessels of the Xorjth Atlantic squadron and other vessels in the harbor | were illuminated. The celebration ended with a display of tire works in j the North End park. Senator Lodge, in his address, after dwelling at some length on the history j and victories of the glorious old ship, ! spoke particularly of the way in which j our small, but well equipped, navy of ! that day more than retrieved on the ! water the reverses which a tardy ad- j ministration and a halting foreigu policy had invited on the land, lie said: “England and Europe received valuable instructions from the ; war of which this battered old ship is j the sign aud symbol; but we Aiueri* j caus were taught a great de^l more. j We had learned that weak defenseless J ness meant war, and stroug-armed readiness meant peace, liouor aud quiet. It is well to note i that the lesson of wise preparation, : taught by the war of ISIS, and always worth remembering, is even more than then, for to-day wars are fought in a few months, while it takes years to build modern ships and j cast rilled gnus. Weakness aud fear and defenselessness mean war aud dishonor. Readiness, preparation ; aud courage mean honor and peace. 1 Where we were unprepared in 1812 we suffered, where we were prepared we prospered and vindicated our natioual existence.” Th wmIIh HcfiijM* to bo l‘*r sail tod to Return to Thetr Home*. ^ Athens.

A CRITICAL STAGE &t Kay Prel«de a Rapture with Ike fTaitoi Stale* — Opinio tie of Spuilek Mtalf tan-Spela'i Blfht, After Tremendous Sacrifice* km Cube, to Demand International Neutrality—Forbearnee Ceasee to be a Virtue. London, Oct 25.—The Madrid correspondent of the Daily Mail says: “The Spanish press unanimously support the attitude of the government, which it calls eminently sober and dignified, but the impression is that the controversy with the United States has reached a critical stage which may be the prelude to a rupture. I spoke with three members of the cabinet to-day (Sunday), who, in almost identical words, contended that Spain has the right, after her tremendous sacrifices in Cuba, to demaud the observance of international neutrality by other nations. One of them added: “ “The gordian knot is the United States, without whose help the rebellion would long ago have been suppressed. We do not want war, but every Buropean nation will approve of our defense of oor international rights.” “The Spanish naval forces in the Carribean sea will be strengthened on the pretest of a necessity for increased vigilance on the Cuban coast. Gen. Weyler has cabled a denial of the report that Mr. Hughes, the correspondent of Black and White was robbed. He said Hughes died of syncope and appeals to the testimony of the British consul at Havana for proof of his statement.” Sputa Cannot Continue Her Forbearance Toward the Ctilted States. Madrid, Oct 35.—There is no doubt that the government's reply will represent the deep feeliog of the nation. The n^te dwells at length on filibustering and “other material and moral assistance which has ehiefiy contributed to the rise and duration of the rebellion and which in turn has damaged American interests.” It clearly iulimates that Spain can not coutinuc the “forbearauee shown by Senor Cauovas del Castillo and the duke of Tetuau during the past two years,” and that she now calls upon the American government “to fullfil more strietly in the future the rules and duties of international law,” because the success of the new home rule policy and the speedy pacification of Cuba chiefly depeud upon the cou•duet of the United States. £1 Imparcial publishes a cablegram from Key West assertiug that there is a strong party in Cuba, “fiercely opposed to Marshal Blanco, ami the new regime,” and that it is feared his task j will be very difficult. ENGLAND'S PRIOR CLAIM. It li Asserted by Capt. Lujjard, In Command of the Kalahari Desert. London, Oct 25.—Capt- Frederick Lugard, British officer in command in the Kalahari desert, south ceutrai ; Africa, who was for some time in com- j mand of British east Africa and later was connected with the Royal Niger j company, has just returned to Loudon from central Africa. In the course of an interview os to the difficulties betweeu the British and the French in the Hinterland of Lagos, in west Africa, Capt. Lugard said to the correspondent: “Beyond the fact that the government has telegraphically summoned mo for special service in east Africa, 1 know uothing as to my future movements. With regard to the French claims, however, the cai£ is quite | clear. Borgu, of Nikkiis, the capital, j indisputably bclougs to England, by virtue of a treaty concluded with the | king prior to any so-called treaties i with France or any European nation. \ We have also treaties with llesha and j Kiama, the only two other important ! chiefs in Borgu.

ALLEGED SWINDLER ARRESTED. ! ('•jirjfd with Working a “Klitutiain” U»mt j on Men Leaving for Europe. Nsw York, Oct §4—Millard Walker, | 4a years old, said by the police to be 1 au old offender, who stated that his ! home is Buffalo, N. Y.. and John F. j Ellis, 44 years old, of this city, were arraigued in the Jcffcrsou Market police court yesterday, charged with working a “flimHam" game on men leaving for Europe on cattle ships of the Anchor line. Complaints had been made to the police by cattle men who had been swindled out of rnouey by two men answering the descriptions of the prisoners. The latter, it is alleged, get the cattlemen to buy spurious bonds, telliug them they could be cashed in either Loudoo or Liverpool. When searched the prisoners had two finely executed j bonds, one of which had the name 1 "Dank of Engraving" on it, and the other had the heading “Mavsachu cits ] and Montana Gold and bilver Mining : Co." The men waived examination, eud were remanded to police headquarters until Monday. RETURN OF WHITE SQUADRON. is EitNKinl Cruise iu the Waters or the Eastern Coast. Nsw York.

A MENACE TO THE NATION. SatlOMl Disaster Threatens Throaich RepabUess Rottenness. The fact of overshadowing importance connected with the Union Pacific deal is not that the government is to lose millions of dollars by the transaction and thereby line the pockets of a syndicate of capitalists who contributed heavily to the campaign fund which debauched the country that McKinley might be president, but that consummation Of the bargain as agreed upon between the administration and the favored syndicate will concentrate in the hands of one man powers that will make him the absolute master of the transportation business of the United States. This man is J. Pierpont Morgan. He ir- now plotting, with good prospects of success, to get control of the Baltimore & Ohio road. With the acquirement aft his property and its merging into the vast railroad monopoly which he now directs, the last clement of competition in the carrying business between the | Mississippi Valley and the Atlantic seaboard will have been crushed out. Place in Morgan's bands the Union Pacific and his mastery of the railroad situation on the continent will be as complete as is that of the Rockefellers in the oil field. He will be the supreme dictator of the prices of all products and other property in the United States. By fixing freight rates at whatever figure he pleases, Morgan can determine the prices of all labor and the products of labor. He can build up new centers of commerce and manufacture and destroy those already in existence if it suits his purpose to do so. Thus he can control the value of land by shifting the centers of consumption. lie can issue millions of watered stock and wring from the producers of wealth tribute in the shape of dividends to keep up the fictitious values of his securities. No present law can reach him or curb his power, because no lawmaker had apprehended the danger of such stupendous forces being concentrated in the hands of one man. He can set at defiauce and laugh to scorn the interstate commerce act. New enactments will have .Jo be placed upon the statutes to check the evil of his sway. This will be the work of years and will usher in an era of corruption in national legislation such as has never been witnessed in the new world, for his resources for manipulating the lawmaking body will be limitless until the pedpte awake to a full realization of the enormous forces of corruption he commands, Better that the1 government should lose every dollar it has invested in the Union Pacific than that the road should pass into the hands of Morgan under the circumstances that now environ the deal. Betterthat the government should present its iuterest iu the property r.s a free gift to some one who would guarantee to keep it as an independent line, competing fairly and openly for the transportation of the products of the farm and shop and factory, than that It should be swallowed up by Pierpont Morgan. Collis Huntington, the Vanderbilts and their English associates. President McKinley car. avert this national calamity by a simple act. l!e can force his attorney-general to enter an appeal from the decree of foreclosure ihat was obtained by questionable methods. This would give congress an opportunity to scrutinize the deal, anil I congress would dare not approve. It j would also stimulate competition in the lidding by affording a chance for bidders to get together the purchase money and agree among themselves on terms. J To his own conscience and his sense of obligation to the honorable traditions of thecxnltcd position he now occupies, Maj. McKinley owes this plain duty.— 5t. Louis Republic.

DINGLhY d PKEDIUTIUn, Ko Signs ns Yet of the Increase In Revenue. “The deficiency in revenue” under the Cleveland administration, Mr. Dingley declared in his illuminating speech of Mqrch 22, “has nearly all arisen from the falling off cf revenue from duties on imports.’ ’ “Our problem.” he continued, “is to provide adequate revenue frem duties on imports to carry on the government.” The conclusion of this enlightened statesman, as recorded in the Congressional Record of March 24, was that “the peuding bill enacted into law would yield an increase in revenue of about $113,000,000.” It is fair, of course, to notice that he “hedged” with sufficient caution to reduce his estimated increase. on account of the failure of congress to “jam through” the Dingley bill, to fifty or sixty millions. But on this increase he positively took his stand. Well, the deficit in revenue, since the beginning of the fiscal year, has been some $29,000,000. dr $4,000,000 larger than in the corresponding period a year ago. The revenue, in order to fulfill Mr. Dingley’s prediction, must increase sixty to seventy millions during the next nine months. Docs anyone seriously expect such remarkable results? Does the import movement suggest any increase whatever over 1805, in the present season? Does it not. rather, foreshadow that kind of future eminence for the Dingley prophets which is usually reserved for politicians who blunder in the face of warnings from their own party associates, and who make their blunders because of simple stupidity? —X.

DEBIT AND CREDIT. A Lesson In Monetary Vaises for the People. Silver is worth as much silver as it ever was worth. Gold is worth as much gold as it ever was worth. Silver, when law made it legal tender money, was worth its weight in gold at a ratio also made by law. Before criminal legislation robbed silver of its legal tender quality (in 1873 in our country) it would buy just as much of wheat and corn and cotton and wool and iron and lumber; just as much of these and 20 other of the leading staple products of the land as it will to-day. It has not changed in value. Silver is honest money. But when criminal legislation robbed this people of one-half of its coin legal tender money supply—that is, when silver was demonetized in 1873—gold was made dishonest money. That is, gold began daily to buy more of the staple products than it would before. Just as if a silver man were stabbed to death, his gold brother—these two men alone living in the lanci—would have twice ps much as his former portion— twice hs much to eat, to wear, to have. Gold has profited by the crime—the stab, the murder—of silver. And mourning and sorrow fill the land, because of this the greatest crime the world has known. No prosperity, no confidence can be until this crime is avenged and silver is quickened and made powerful by law again. The masses of our people know that 412,5 grains of standard silver stamped by the government as a dollar constitutes an honest dollar—a silver dollar which \vill buy substantially the same as it would at any time within the last quarter of a century. Therefore silver has remained at a parity, not only with itself, but with all commodities except gold. The food and clothing and real estate values of silver have not changed. But in 1873 the parity between silver and gold was destroyed by legislation. Legislation said we must make gold appreciate; we will stab silver by not longer coining it as legal tender money, then silver will not buy so much gold,’ the parity will be destroyed, and the gold holders and creditor classes will profit; the uniformed masses and debtors will not know we are robbing them. And since silver was demonetized by this cruel legislation, gold, because of its scarcity and the doubled demand thus made for it, has risen in purchasing power, and because it has not only grown out of parity not only with silver. but with labor, real estate, food, clothing and all things else, has become the most dishonest money the world has ever known. We repeat, gold is the dishonest money. “The rise of gold is the thermometer by which the degradation of mankind can be measured.”—Chicago Dispatch.

We shall watch Mr. McKinley deliver the goods— contracted for before the election— with considerable interest.—Atlanta Constitution. ——Mark Hanna had not less thau half a million of dollars left over from his campaign fund of last year, and Ohio advices report that he is spending it quite freely in democratic or doubtful legislative districts. Ohio has never been on the auction block to the extent it is this year.—Pittsburgh Post. —Although Secretary Sherman declared more than onec that every shred of protection ought to be removed from any article produced by a trust or combine. neither he r.or any other republican senator ever offered a bill to carry that plan into effect. The truth is that the republican party dares not offend the monopolies which its own tariff laws have created.—N. Y. Post. ——If the triumphant party had not had so much to say about the deficitproducing Wilson law and the bond-is-suing democratic administration, it might not be kind to call attention to the deficit-creating record of the present administration. Notwithstanding there has been a decided uplift in commercial conditions .the government revenues do not manifest that recuperative power they were expected to show under republican care.—Detroit Free Press. -It is the receipts from internal revenue that bring up the totals this year. The democratic tariff produced from customs nearly double the revenue that came from internal taxation; the republican tariff produces a little more than half as much from customs as the internal taxes furnish. Why not tell the people the truth about the new republican tariff for the trusts? It is not bringing revenue to the government; it is only fattening monopolies. This juggling with figures cannot change the facts.—Boston Press. -The ease with which their votes have been purchased has been taken advantage of more than once by the managers of republican presidential candidates to stock nominating conventions with delegates bought and paid for with the calm assurance that characterizes the bartering of live stock. This is the principal, if not the sole, reason why the southern states have wielded such an undue influence in republican national lonvcntior.R.
