Ex- President May be Called Upon to bean Ambassador. Washington, D. C, May 27.— President McKinley’s Cuban policy israpidly coming toa head. It is asserted that in view of the tremen- dous importance of the Spanish mis- sion im the near future, he has de- eided to raise it toan embassy, and tooffer the place to ex-President Benjamin Harrison. In doing this, the president has set aside any con- sideration of the political promi- pence that would be given the ex- | president in this eonnestion The president today received positive assurance from representa- > tives of President Cisneros of the insurgent government that the in- surgents would ba willing to treat for the independence of the island aith a prospective indemnity in the They will also accept the offices of this governmentas me- Thomas Estrada Palma, head of the Cuban Juota in the United States is here.

It is probable that the United States will suggest absolute freedom for Cuba, with an indemnity of $150,000,000 for Spain. Advices received here indicate that Consul General Lee has forced a prompt and personal retraction Signor Congostc, Spain’s special commissioner in the Ruiz case. When the news that Senator Mor- gan’s resolution had passed the sen- ate becames public in Havana Con- gosto made the open assertion in the Hotel Inglaterre smoking room that ‘Consul GeGneral Lee was to blame for it, alleging that a great eonspracy exieted between American Consuls in Cuba and partisans of the Cuban cause in the United States | and intimating the apportionment of funds to succcr American citizens here to be a part and parcel of the _ plan to bring about friction, irritate Spain, and eventually prompt serious trouble. : General Lee, learning about Con- gosto’s remarks, went to that gen q _ tleman a few minutes later, demand- > Coughs, colds and consumption, ~ ing an immediate and full retraction which Congosto reluctantly gave.

Chicego, Ill., May 27.—Yesterday in a saloon kept by Carl Schoepfer, a number of men engaged in an ar- gument as to who could drink the mort whisky. Finally Jacob Con- tad, Joseph Bolum and Carl Eiet- eben, began the contest. The saloon keeper supplied the whisky in small beer glasses. Con- Yad was shead on the number of glasses drank when he collapsed and fell to the floor. He was dragged into a room, left lying on the floor and the other two drank on. They became unconscious in a short time and were left lying on the floor be- side Conrad. Word was sent to the Police, and when they reached the place Conrad was dead, Bolum dy- ing and Eisteben in a critical condi- tion. ‘The saloon-keeper was arrest- ed, charged with manslaughter.

BGSSSSSS' AN EXPOSE ) Of the Conditions in Cuba Giv- en inthe Heraldo. Alleged Pacification Called a Comedy — Madrid Papers Say the Present Situation ts the Worst in fifty Years- Madrid, May 26.—The extreme tension continues between the politi- cal parties. The Heraldo, defending Senor Sagasta sgainst the accusation made by the Conservativer, exposes the deplorable military situation in Cuba, and says that the whole dis- trict of Camakuey is in the power of the Cubane; that there is only one Spanish column to operate over a district of 32,000 square miles, and that in the eastern part of Cuba, Spanish troops have never yet set foot. It calls the alleged pacification of Cuba a comedy. The same paper further ineiauates that meseages purporting to be from Senor Dupuy de Lome, protesting against Senor Sagasta’s speeches, because of the effect produced in the United States, were written by Con- servatives in Madrid. | CANOVAS UNBENDING. Canovas’ attitude is firm and un- bending. His words in the Cortes regarding the supreme necessities of the Fatherland wore: “I shall govern the country as it has been governed before, without the aid of authorities.” Both Liberals and Silvelistas have stopped attending Parliament. Yes terday Senor Piedal, on behalf of the majority begged Senor Sagasta to return with bis mivority to Parlia ment. Sagasta refused absolutely. The Ministerial organ, La Epocs, asys that the present situation in Spain is the most difficult she has been in for 50 years. The attitude of Sprin in regard to the policy of the United States about Caba continues to be a waiting one.

Cincinnati, O., May 27.—Ex-Con- gressman P. J. Sorg and Congress man Lentz have recently announced their candidacies for the democratic nomination for Governor. A speeial from Washington to-night contains an interview with J. R. McLean, in whieh he announces bis candidacy fer senator to succeed Mark Hanna in the event of the next Ohio Legis- lature having a democratic majority. Mr. McLean states that he will not attend the Democratic State con- vention at Columbus next month, but be expects the platform to be in H accord with the Chicago declarations | and the financial question to be more of an issue in the canvass than it was last year. This is regarded as significant, as it is understood that Bryan has promised McLean to stump the state this year Mr. Mo- Lean does not favor indorsement by | the state convention of anyone for senator and thinks no such action will be taken or attempted. Mr. Mc- Lean will leaye for Cincinnati June 1 and remain here till after the elec- tion, as he has his home fitted up here for the summer. bell that his course was detrimental to the interests of bis employers, but nothing resulted until Campbell was in New York City last week on business connected with the road, when he had a conference with Gould. After the discussion of railroad affairs Mr. Gould is said to have re- ferred to the political theories Camp bell hud been actively advocating. Under present conditions Gould is declared to have said that szitations of these questions weuld have a harmful effect and he inquired if Campbell could not modify his views, or keep silent about them. Camp- bell is said to bave declared that he believed absolutely in the principles he advocated and that he meant to continus to work for their establieh- ment. He therefore resigned.

I understand now that things could not be worse than they are,no matter how the election might have gone, but some of my friende, who misled me, tell me tbe election of Bryan would not have made them better. What do you think of it? How could times be hetter than they are if Bryan bad won?” Two or three columns of space filled with comparative statistics might be given to answering this question, but the essence of this whole money questien is one of prices. Falling prices kave always and everywhere produced languishing conditions of trade. Gold standerd advocates were candid enough to admit during the last campaign that their success meant falling prices. They promised an increased purchas- ing power of the dollar,which means, of course, declines in the prices of things for which the dollar is to be exchanged. Bimetallism promised rising prices. The periods of greatest prosperity in the world, and notably in this country, have been those of rising prices, or stability in pricee. ‘The election of Bryan and the in- auguration of bimetalliem would have brought rising instead of falling prices. To state the case clearly and concisely, Bryan and bimetalliem would have conditions the exact op- posite of those now prevailing. ; A Word to Physicians.
