Goveuxon Beapiey was in Can- ton Sunday and spent most of the day with President-elect McKinley. He would not, however, after leav- ing the house submit to an interview, and the reporters were no wiser after their attempt to learn something of what had passed than before. The governor did, however, deny the as- sertion of Dr. Hunter that no patron- age would come this way until a Uni- ted States Senator had been chosen, He disclaimed any particular know- ledge of the senatorial situation in this state, Iv is said the sundry civil bill and the general deficiency bill will be ve- toed or pocketed by President Cleve- lund, which will prevent their becom- ing laws at this session, President Cleveland’s wisdom and prudence appears to be such (in hisown mind) ag to outweigh the united wisdom of the Senate and House of Represent- atives on almost anything that comes up, from a private pension bill to the a belligerent power. distinguished ser- recognition of ‘Thank heaven his vices are about to be dispensed with.

We call attention again | to the two dollar switching charge, which is too high.

There are al- 8o left some uncertainties as to loca- tion of tracks by which to reach the depot. This can be removed by a provision that the company shall pass over its own ground to the depot.

There was present an American phy- sician with General Lee, but we are told he was not permitted to take part in the proceedings. It seems to have been wholly in the hands of the Span- ish, While it did not show that Dr. Ruiz had been murdered, we are as- sured it did not reveal any indications of suicide. The action of the author- ities from first to last in this matter has been such as to indicate a desire to cover something up, and the Amer- ican people will not be easily vinced that Dr. Ruiz was not dered in bis cell ; neither will they heve but that many others have gone| the same road. Unquestionably the situation demands action by this government which shall convince the Spanish authorities that Uncle Sam means business. patience is about exhausted, and that he has politely but firmly informed the government that unless he can have its support he will not continue at his post. He is said to be de- termined to have a respectful hearing hereafter when it becomes necessary for him to make inquiries or interfere in behalf of the American citizens or know the reason for its refusal.
