SIGHS OF SURRENDER
MK. CLEVELAND BEADY TO
BALK DOWN AGAIN.
CORINTO CASE REPEATED.
No Vigorous American Policy—
i Mora Claim a Trap and Spain
Follows It With a Snub.
ia- -Tjnas
Washington, Oct. 21.—As might
have been expected there is a mod
eration of the Administration’s pur
pose to inaugurate a vigorous Amer
ican policy on the Venezuelan
boundary dispute with Great Britain.
It is realized at last .that the ugly
Corinto incident established a prec
edent which will prove most awk
ward should any attempt be m ide to
object to the use of British troops
for the collection of the smart money
which Great Britain demands for
arrest of her policemen on the dis
puted border of British Guiana.
In the Nicaraguan case a claim
for $75,000 was made for injuries
sustained by British subjects, and
the demand was accompanied by an
absolute refusal to arbitrate. This
was followed by the armed occupa
tion of the principal port of entry in
Nicaragua and the seizure of the
Custom House. A.The United States
stood aloof when that outrage was
committed, and the Cleveland Ad
ministration argued that it had no
right to interfere in a dispute be
tween two independent nations. ’•
a parallel cask.
Now the boundary question in
Venezuela is complicated by the in
stitution of a demand for damages
growing out of a collision between
British officials and those of Venezu
ela. To carry out the parallel, the
insistence upon a cash reparation is
accompanied by humiliating condi
tions, which Venezuela cannot with
out complete stultification submit*to.
Inevitably Venezuela territory will
be'occupied by British soldiers as
Corinto was, and once in possession
Great Britain’s policy of spoliation
will be again established. Tae only
hope Venezuela has is the interven
tion of the United States, and here
the Corinto precedent will come into
play. J low the Ad ninistraiion will
attempt to enforce the Monroe Doc
trine in Venezuela after having been
blind to the significance of the occu
pation of C >rmto, except by the
acknowledgement that the seizure of
the Nicaraguan port should not have
been permitted, cannot be seen.
MOVING WITH CONFIDENCE.
The British Foreign Office is evi
dently moving with extreme confi
dence in the belief that the United
States will act in regard to Venezu
ela precisely as it did toward Nica
ragua. As to the exercise of the
friendly offices of the United Sates
in obtaining arbitration on the bound
ary question, the British authorities
will listen to; uch representations and
continue to hold on to what they
have taken already. They only will
agree to submit to an international
court those vague disputes outside
the Sehombargk line.
Such a controversy can be entend
ed by the arts of diplomacy almost
indefinitely, but the pr<-leaded injury
to British subjects undoubtedly will
form the basis of active operations
whenever Great Britain feels that
the proper time has come to make a
warlike demonstration.
AIR. CLEVELAND WORRIED.
It is current gossip in the National
capital that President Cleveland is
much disturbed by the announce
ment of the intention on the part of
the United States to taks a decided
stand wi‘h regard to Venezuelan
affairs. Ha is said to believe that
the time has not arrived for a radi
cal departure from his policy of non
interference. He does not be-ieve
it wise to embroil the United States
in serious foreign complications, at
least for the present, and his sense
of self importance, it is said, has been
hart by the credit which Secretary
Olney has received for the new de
parture.
TRAP SET BY SPAIN.
As if the Venezuelan difficulty
were not sufficient, the Administra
tion has received a setback in its at
tempt to gain glory out of the Cuban
PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER, ATLANTA, GA., NOVEMBER 1, 1895.
insurrection. The payment of the
Mora claim was forced by the Sec
retary oi State out of Spain at a time
when the agitation for a recognition
of Cuba frightened the Spanish
authorities into the belief that it
would be wise for them to make
peace with the United States at any
cost. If the co-operation of the
American Government could be se
cured to prevent filibustering and at
the same time to ward off a threaten
ed recognition of the rebellious colo
ny, the expenditure of-$1,500,000
would be cheap for such an accom
plishment.
After the Mora claim had been
paid, however, the A1 ministration,
dimly appreciating the strength of
public sentiment in favor of the
struggling Cubans, felt itself impell
ed to do something in responce to
that sentiment.
no investigation allowed.
A. communication was addressed
through minister Hannis Taylor at
Madrid asking Spain if there would
be any objection to the visit of an
agent of the United States to the
Island of Cuba so discover the situ
atioa of affairs there and to make a
report to this Government, so that
Congress and the American people
could be informed of the true condi
tions. The haughty Castilians re
sented this brilliant move in state
craft and peremptorily refused to
submit to au investigation by an
emissary from a foreign nation, inti
mating at the same time that Spam
was perf. ctly able to take care of its
own affairs and that, if the United
States desired information as to Cu
ba, she could obtain it from Madrid;
but, really it did not appear to be
anybody’s business except that ot
thote immediately concerned in put
ting down the insurrection.
time to keep quiet.
When this story gained currency
to-day attempts were made to hav<
it verified from the State Depart
ment, but everybody connected with
that branch of the executive Govern
ment was completely dumb.
It is suggested that whoever con
ceived the idea of an investigation
made a mistake in not lettiog Spain
believe that “Paramount” Blount
would be the emissary. There would
have been no doubt iu Spanish cir
cles that Blount would report in
favor of continuing monarchic! su
premacy, and his mission would
therefore no; have been objection

A GIRL TO L'HE FRONT.
She Goes to Fight For Cuban
Independence.
A romantic tale comes from Cuba,
which is now at war with Spain.
Senorita Angelina Gonzales, the
belle of Banes 16 years old, suddenly
disappered a few day ago.
Her father’s repeating rille and a
machete belonging to a laborer upon
the place were also found to be miss
ing.
A letter from the young girl ad
dressed to her mother was finally dis
covered which explained her flight.
her letter:
“I am going to join my two broth
ers who are with Miceo’s army
fighting for ‘Cuba libre.’ I shall
shire their hardship! and accompany
them to death or victory.”—Lincoln
Citizen.
His Life for His Dog.
Waycross, Out. 24.—At Waynes
ville, thirty miles below Waycross,
Isaac Wall, colored, gave his life to
save his dog. His dog stood on the
track and barked at the approaching
passenger train.
Wad saw that his dog was going
t> perish under the wheels of the
locomotive, and he jumped in front
of the engine, and pushed the canine
off. His body was terribly mangled,
and the dog escaped injury.
The dog stood guard over the
body of bis dead master until help
came—Herald.
