England's natural mpathies are with the United States in these cond moral welfare of the world. England has aken from time immemorial a direct in- t in such matters. The United States attends strictly to this continent and does uot seek to regulate the inequalities here, there and everywhere in Christendom and { of it. England's methods may be ques- le, but it can not be denied that the te result of English intervention and nization is the extension of civilizing uences. But aside from purely humane iderations, it is already plain in this nection that England seeks the friendiy thy of the United States in her own international relations. Mediation between Spain and this country now is a mest deli- ertaking. Already this country the position of a mediator, to prevent a cruel, inhumane warfare. Its Hirect grievance, the destruction of the Maine, is closely related to the position taken by it in its efforts to bring about a more wholesome condition in the island. There is no legitimate possibility of foreign mediation. ———_e+___ The Cuban “Governmen: The zppeal of the autonomist cabinet at Hevana to the insurgerts, asking the jat- ter to lay down their arms and negotiate for a permanent peace, is unworthy of serious consideration as a factor in the ese. When the matter is considered from the standpoint of the men in the field, :he u.cn who have brovght about this oppor- tunity of Cuba to shake loose the shackles who have suffered, fought and ed in their allegiance to the cry of it is to be seen that the nm is not werth the paper it is written upon. This so-calied cabinet is composed of the men who have stood mid- Way between Spanish rule end Cuban inJe- pendence. They are true to neither the sovereignty of the government at Madrid nor the decirine of absolute independence. They are, it is ascertained by these who have investigated the subject, the Cuban merchants, in the cities and towns, who have been too faint-hearted to join the insurgents and too anxious for beiter gov- ernmentat methods to become what are called “intransigentes,” or radical followers of the Spanish dynasty. They are, in short, They have now been which, though unac- companied by any real power. have served to piacate them and give them a ceriain official standing in their communitics. 1 far as Spain can sce the situation they are 1 government.

Senator Mitchell of Wisconsin struck a ncte of true patriotism In his reply to a fri who advised him to work for a acifie setution of the present international This reply, printed in yesterday's covered a great deal of ground. It at the root of the present evil, the destruction of the Maine by what most Americans firmly believe to have been nish treachery. Mr. Mitchell is in a gcod position from which to speak as he has spoken on this question. His previous senitments toward Cuba justify his warmth of feeling now without exposing him to the thoughtless charge of being a “Jingo.” The concluding part of his message, which is classical in its succinct emphasis, is worthy of reproduction: “Over-refinement of argument is useless. At stands before the American people a piein case of treachery. Pertidy and cruelty run in the Spanish blood. There is little eise in its history. Any nation that would permit such an outrage to go unpunished would not deserve to exist. There are fsome things worse than war. There are ®ome things better than money.” ———_++2—____.

At the Isst moment there is great pother about Europe's interest in the Cuban bust- ness. Eut what interest, legitimately, has she in it? Hor affairs are not involved. Her EVENING STAR.| in other controversies affecting the | tablish2d, and we are ready to act on it. But if Europe were justified in offering suggestions to us, we might still insist that they be based on some correct knowledge of the subject. She has been fed on falss- hoods about the whole matter. General Weyler, who was an armed butcher in Cuba, and has been an unarmed lar ever since his return to. Spain, is the author of much the greater part of Europe's so- called information about Cuba and the, relations of the United States to the con- troveesy. It is from his ravings and distor- tions that sentiment in Paris and Vienna prejudicial to the United States has been manufactured. He stands for the charge that the United States is at the bottom of the rebellion in Cuba, and has only selfish ends in view. Springing from Weyterian” roorbacks, me marvelous yarns have found their into print. This industry has thrived paliy in Paris, where so many Span- ‘sare held. But it has not been E here, and in Vienna it as- h a remarkable phase that the sador at that capital ex- ned a short time since that not even ne Whole of the United States indorsed the s attiluce of this government; that in the event: of a conflict between Spain “i this country his country would find ympathy and even assistance in the southern stztes. x Europe,then, should understand that not are we not the instigators of the war jin Cuba, but that our present attitude is ly in the interests of peace. The d States is the only power that can ore peace to Cuba. Spain is helpless in the island except for evil. Her presence there has grown so hateful to the people y prefer death to a continuation of rule. —_>+2—____ The Anacostin River Improvement. ‘The House made good use of “District @ay” yesterday when it took advantage of the cpportunity to pass the joint resolution, already passed by the Senate, granting an allowance to the War Department for the purpose of devising a “project” for the re- clamation of the Eastern branch flats. This enactment gives the plan for the eradication of the unwhelesome influences of the Anacostia an excellent practical start. Up to this time there has never Leen anything but discussion. he citizens have repeatedly brought the matter to the attention of the committees and have ad- vanced the most urgent reascns for prompt action. As Chairman Babcock said yester- 'y, in reply te a questicn relating to the reasons for this action, “it has been recom- mended by almost every official of the government as well as by a number of medical soctetic Indeed, 11 is probably the most generally approved and demanded Project of public improvement pending -be- fore Congress. It invelves-the health of not only the residents of tl ion im- mediately adjacent to the river and the marshes, but also of the official occupants of the various estzblishments in that vi ity. Indeed, it is suspected that much of the malarial infiuence created by the marsh conditions finds its way to the Capitol building. Just as a few years ago it was felt that the health of the Presidents was threatened by the emanations from the rear-by marshes of the Potomac, so now it is asserted by some authorities that the foul odors and germ-bearing airs from the Eastern branch and its contributory sewers und contiguous flatlands have assailed the constitutions of some of the national legis- Jators. But however wide may be the Tange of this mal-odorous, morbific agency. every suggestion of wisdom and common Precaution lies in the direction of prompt remedy, such as has already been applied to the Potomac flats. The joint resolution calls for a plan of action and an estimate of the cost of filling in the low-lands and dredging the channels. it may be that sufficient information along this line 1s already in the possession of the engineering authorities of the War Department. 17 that be the case it may be possible for the officials of that department to submit their report to Congress before the present ses- sion closes. This would be higiiy desirable, for it is sincerely to be hoped that from this point forward no time or opportunity will be lost in pressing the work of clamation to a satisfactory conclusion. ———r+2—__. April Snow. Winter makes a desperate and, it is to be hoped, final effort to demonstrate that the seasons have not been permanently shuflled out of their long estahlished relations. To- day’s weather is a reminder of the uncer- tainty of things meterological. This season has been particularly contradictory, as was disclosed by the records for March that Were noted in this column the other day. The moisture of that month and the fairly high temperatures brought out the leaves on many trees and the shrubs in the parks began to assume a spring-like appearance. It is to be honed that this burst of snow, with the colder weather promised for to- morrow, will not injure these early blos- soms and so put the parks back in their progress toward the fresh beauty that Bs s Washington in the months of April, May and June one of the loviiest spots on earth. April snows are not regarded with much faver by fruit raisers and horticul- » but the fall need not de serious damage if it is not accompanied by freezing ture This cold snap can not, in last very long. It would be a sad and streets ion of the country were to be visit- ed by April storms of winter-like severity. The perversity of the season thus far af- fords no substantial ground of confidence as to the future. —--- ++ = ____ It is the Spanish public that requires a suicidal stand on the part of the govern- ment.

Spain expresses great confidence in her ability to cope with the United States in war. Her ships, as she boasts, are man- ‘ned by trained and hardy seamen, while curs, she declares, are manned by “mer- cenaries,” hastily picked up in waterside cities. It is her high privilege to despise us if she chooses, but wisdom warns against that appraisement of one’s enemy. ‘The truth is that, if war comes, the na- val battles between the two countries will be watched with very great interest by the whole world. These latest naval fighting machines are yet to be tested. They will be as new in Spanish as in American hands. We shall not make the mistake cf sup- posing that Spain is not prepared to handle her ships for all that they may be worth: days determined to go out an’ settle fur Cayenne, “that I do not like to be addressed quality and ably led battle would have been forced upon the enemy. But General Wey- ler, with a large army, spent nearly two years in warfare on unarmed old men and women and children, and General Blanco, after eight months, has nothing to show for the efforts he has made. The insur- gents, beginning with a small force of a few thousand, poorly armed and worse clad, are now, at the end of three years, mustering over forty thousand, and are in better condition with respect to food sup- plies than the Spaniards themselves, with ships at hand and the sea open to them. An American commander would not hold his commission long if unable to show a better record than that. If Spain enjoys feeling a little game and superior, now is the time to indulge her- self. If she draws the sword, she is certain to perish by it; if she‘ backs down, the memory of her blunder will cover her with confusion. But a covering of confusion, in her case, with the right and justice against her, would be better than a covering of blood. + ____ In the light of current events, Liliuoka- lani should pause and reflect that after all the task of sustaining monarchic dignity may be more trouble than it is worth. > 0 = _____ In the event of war, all countries may be expected to refrain from showing active partisanship, with the important bea ean of Cuba. —————_+ + = ___ The remainder of Europe will not take a hand in any conflict with Spain, but will judiciously linger on the verge of war, as usual, = ——+22s___ Sagasta is engaged in the hopeless and humiliating operation of trying to make a bluff after his nand has been exposed. —_~++e—____ It would appear that the month of March is making a somewhat tardy appeal for recognition. ——__+ e +_____ SHOOTING STARS, Standing By. “Of course,” said the congressman's friend, ‘you are going to stand by the President.” “That is what I expect to do,” was the answer. “But I have an industrious tem- perament and it goes hard to have to stand by and do nothing.” A Spanish Incident. The trumpeter blew long with glee, And as the echoes sank He sighed, “If those notes could but be Discounted at the bank.” An Apprehension. “There is no doubt that you made a ringing speech,” said the admiring friend. “Yes,” replied the patriot, “but there has been a great deal of its kind.

Mr. Atkins, the Cuvan sugar planter, who is a citizen of Boston, has reached Wash- ington on a final attempt to stay American interfe! Cuban affairs. It has been and again by reputable co: : in Cuba, notably Mr. Pepper of The Washington Star, that Mr. Atkins has from the outset received special mili- tary protection from the Spanish gov general for grinding cane on his plant: tion, while all th three years he h constantly defended to the American au- thorities the operations of the Spanish go ernment. Even Weyler in his darkest days was indorsed by Mr. Atkins. > The Gold Movement. From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. In round figures the amount of gold which has been imported Into this country since the movement started, on February 5 which is on the way now, and which has been ordered for importation, is $40,000,000, This includes nearly $6,000,000 from Aus- tralia, Here is a situation which pleases the people, and which arouses the envy of Europe. A country which can draw on the world for this amount of gold in this short period without borrowing it is in a peculiarly Fappy condition. —___ +0 A Good Example. From the Philadelphia Record.
