Congressman Grosvenor Talked Too Much. FATAL GIFT 0? SARCASM. Poking Fun at the Boers May Prove Costly Amusement. BT MELANCHOLY NOVEMBER DAYS. \ - Senator Roar Sends Cold Chills Down the Spines of the Jingoes-Predict? ed Downfall of Republican Party. , Quotes Some "Illustrious Traitors.*' Defines Powers of Congress Under the Constitution. [Special Washington Letter.] The signs of the times indicate that g?n?ral Charles Henry Grosvenor of I Ohio, who is generally supposed to j speak for the McHanna administration on the floor of the.house, made a great mistake when he delivered a speech j poking fun at the friends of the Boers, j As a piece of sarcasm the speech was ; a rare success, but the venerable ! statesman from Athens has lived in vain almost to the psalmist's allotment of threescore years and i i ten if he has not yet learned ? that sarcasm is a fatal gift-as fatal I to a man as beauty is said to be to a woman. The Republican warhorse j leveled in sarcasm that day. Every? body enjoyed the artistic manner in which he performed, but subsequent events seem to demonstrate that the American woods are full of sympa? thizers, and the general and his chief are liable to regret that speech once, and only once, which will be as long as they live. In the days to come-the melancholy days of November-when the Repub? lican chieftains are quarreling among themselves as to who defeated William McKinley for a second tenn, if Gener? al Grosvenor does not keep his optic peeled, his confreres will saddle the ?whole responsibility on to him. He will find that, like the parrot whose neck was twisted nearly out of joint .Jby his irate master, "be talked too much." * i Joseph Weldon Bailey has already ! .won his fight for a Texas United States senatorship. his rival, Hon. Horace ""Chilton, having withdrawn from the contest. I repeat here and now delib- . erately what I said some time ago-that ? within two years from the day that : Bailey is sworn in as a member of the less numerous branch of the national legislature he will be recognized as the ! foremost debater in the senate. He is now headed for the field of his glory. - -^God speed the lien hearted young statesman in the great career which is . opening before him. Of course we ie- ! gret that he leaves the-house. My own i feeling toward him, is not so much ad- j miration as deep personal affection or. j more properly speaking, a mixture cf ! ^Jhe two. He is a man to trust and ' love. 1 am not disparaging Senator j Chilton. He is able, capable, cour- j ageous, honest, but Bailey is my close j personal friend. I have helped him ! fight many battles, and to men who ! fight side by side in the house there ? comes a feeling akin to that which ' comrades in arms entertain for each other. Senator Hoar's Great Speech. Senator George Frisbie Hoar of Mas- J sachusetts, successor to Charles Sum- i ner, delivered a ,speech in the senate recently which must have made the cold chills chase each other up and j .down the spinal columns of the Philip? pine jingoes. Truly he laid on and spared not. He smote them hip and thigh. He broke them on the wheel, ?drew and quartered them, roasted them on redhot coals, gibbeted them before high heaven, brayed them in a mortar, stretched them on the rack, whipped them at the cart's tail and otherwise despitefully used them. It was a most remarkable speech-re? markable in many ways and for many ; things-remarkable for its fire, for its j historic learning, for its legal lore, for j its eloquence, for its personalities and I for its length. He'was three hours in delivering it. If he had actually spo? ken every word he printed, it would 1 have consumed five or six hours in its ; delivery. By reason of its great length no one paper will ever print ail of it. j and for the same reason it will not be j generally circulated in pamphlet form, j as that would be too expensive-, for be it remembered that congressional speeches are not printed free and in ^r^nnlimited quantities, as most people seem to think, but are paid for in very hard cash by the author or by some? body else. This great speech by Sen? ator Hoar-for a great speecli it is be? yond all cavil-will cost somewhere from $20 to $23 per thous:'.nd. But it is too good a campaign document for the Democrats to be lost. Consequent? ly I offer no apology for making up the bulk of this letter of quotations from it-quotations which should la saved up and used for campaign pur? poses by adi who rend these letters. He draws this glowing picture of our position at the close of the Spanish war: ? A Great Achievement. "From all over the country came the voice of well paid labor, dwell i na in happy homes, full of contentment with the present and of hope for the future. Capital was seeking new investments on all sides. Our domestic market, rescued from foreign invasion, was our own. Foreign markets were open? ing. The balance of trade was on our gide. The product of American indus? try was carried abroad on an over? whelming and Increasing tide. "We had wen the gi: rv r.Z a rr crt liberator in both hemispheres. Sag of Spain-emblem of tyrannj cruelty-had boon driven from western hemisphere and was sex go down from her ea st ern possess The war had been conducted wii the loss of a gun or the capture < American soldier in battle. The ; of this great achievement was ti any other which history has reco: It was not that we had beaten S It was not that 75,000,000 people conquered 15,000.000, not that spirit of the nineteenth century been too much for the spirit of tin teenth century, not that; the y< athlete had foiled to the ground crepit old man of 00. It was not the American mechanic and cngi in the machine shop could make h< ships or boner guns or that the An can soldier or'sailor had displayed same quality in battle that he shown on every field-at Hunker ! at Yorktown, at Lundy's Lane, at ! Orleans, at Buena Vista, at Gettysb in every sea light on Lake Erie oi the Atlantic. Nobody doubted the ? of the American general, the galla: of the American admiral or the c age of the American soldier or sa The glory of the war and of the vlei was that it was a war and a victor; the interest of liberty. The Ameri flag had appeared as a liberator both hemispheres. When it fior over Havana or Santiago or Mai there were written on its folds, wi all nations could read them, the pie of the resolution of. congress and declaration of the president. Ev true American thanked God that had lived to behold that day." Ominous Prediction. In these mournful words he pred: and deprecates the death of the Hep bean party: "I believe. Mr. President, not o that perseverance in this policy will the abandonment of the principles on which our government is found that it will*change our republic into empire, that our methods of legis tion, of diplomacy, of administr?t! must hereafter be those which belc to empires and not those which bole to republics, but I believe persister in this attempt will result in the deft and overthrow of the Republican p ty. That defeat may not come t; year or next year. I pray God it ra never come. I well remember wt the old Whig party, in the flush of < lirium and anticipated triumph, ga up the great doctrmcs which it had often avowed and undertook to abi don the great territory between t Mississippi and the Pacific to its fa It held its convention at Philadelph It selected as its candidate a great m itary chieftain. Amid the tempest ai delirium a quiet delegate from my OT state arose and declared to the conve tion that the Whig party was dead, seemed that a more audacious, a mo foolish, a more astounding utteran never fell upon human ears. And wh was the result? The party carried tl country and elected its president. B within less than four years thereaft Daniel Webster, as he lay dying ; Marshfield, said, 'The Whig party as political organization is gone, and it well.' Let no such fate attend the R publican party. In my judgment, not now, it will retrace its steps i *iTv>e." Thc* two concluding sentences of thi paragraph are pitiable when we coi sider who uttered them. Senator Hoi is an old man. Ile helped create tl: Republican party, which, he fondi hoped, was immortal, but ho sees ii finish. Yet the affections of his heai cling to it. and despite the evidence c his own senses he exclaims, '"In m judgment, if not now, it will retrace il steps in time." Vain hope! The R< publican party, like Ephraim of old, i joined to its idol, which is the almight -dollar. All the eloquence, ail the lean lng, ali the pathos, all the courage, a the patriots of a dozen men like Senr tor Hoar, cannot check it in its mad cz reer. It is doomed! IIluHtrion* Traitor?. Speaking of Edward Everett's spier did prophecy-that a time would com when Washington's birthday would b celebrated even in the orient-Senato Hoar exclaimed: "The time which the orator predicte? came. In that eastern archipelago, n longer the home of barbarism, a peopl had achieved their independence an< thrown off the ycke of centuries. The; were longing for civilization, educatioi and liberty. To the millions, wit! which that land is swarming, in thi ? dawning of a new light the name o Washington has become familiar. But j alas, the people are citing his examph ; to protect their own liberties agains ! his countrymen. They are nearly j threefold in number the peop2e t< j whom his farewell address was deliv ered. Pray to God that that revered j and beautiful character, our shield s< often against distempered folly and un ! hallowed ambition, may be theirs ! also." As to traitors the venerable senatoi I delivered himself of these sizzling sen . teneos: j "If to think as I do in regard to th( ! interpretation of the constitution; ii : regard to the mandates of the mora ' law or the law <>f nations, to which al j men and all nations must render obe i dience: in regard to the policies whicl .-ire wisest for tho conduct of the state or in regard to those farm of rece?? history in the light of which we have j aet*xl or are to act hereafter, be trea . son. then Washington '.vas a traitor i then Jefferson was a traitor; then Jackson was a traitor; then Franklin ; was a traitor: thoa Sumner was .*] j traitor: then Lincoln was a traitor: . then Webster was a traitor; then ('lav was a traitor; then Corwin was a traitor: then Kout was a traitor; then ; Seward was a traitor; then McKinley, within two years, was a traitor; then 1 the supreme court of the United States has been in the past a nest and hotbed j of treason; then the people of the Unit i ed States, for more than a century, j have been traitors to their own flag j and their own constitution. "We are presented with an issue that eau be clearly and sharnly stated as a j question ot constitutional power, V j question of international law. a ques I tion of justice and righteousness or a j Question of public expediency. This \ can be staled clearly and sharply ir ? the abstract, und ir can be put clearh i and sharply by au illustration growing ! out of existing facts." j Ile then proceeds to roast the ribs of i tile iincrocs in this artistic fashion: j "I hold that this acquisition, holding j and governing can be only a means for I a constitutional end-the cr?ation of I new states or some other cf the con I stitutional purposes to which I have adverted. And I maintain that you j can no more hold and govern territory i than you can hold and manage cannon j or Heels for any other than a eonstitu I tioual end, and I maintain that the ? holding in subjection an alien people. ! governing them against their will for any fancied advantage to them, is not only not an end provided for by the constitution, but is an end prohibited therein. Congress and the Constitution. 'The constitution of the United States sets forth certain specific ob? jects and confers certain specific pow? ers upon the government it creates. All powers necessary or reasonably convenient to accomplishing these spe? cific objects and exercising these spe? cific powers are granted by implica? tion. In my judgment, the constitu? tion should be liberally construed in determining the extent of such powers. In that I agree with Webster and Ham? ilton and Lincoln and Washington and Marshall and not with Calhoun or thc Democrats of the time of the war of the rebellion and since. But the most liberal statesman or jurist never went j further than the rule I have stated in claiming constitutional powers for our government. The constitution says that congress may make rules and reg? ulations for the government of the ter? ritory and other property cf the United States. That implies that we may acquire and regulate territory as we may acquire and use other property, such as our ships of war, our cannon or forts or arsenals. But territory, like other property, can onl\- be acquir? ed for constitutional purposes and can? not be acquired and governed for un? constitutional purposes. Now, one con? stitutional purpose is to admit new states to the Union. That is one of the objects for which the constitution was framed. So we may acquire and hold and govern territory with that object in view. But governing sub? ject peoples and holding them for that purpose is not a constitutional end. On the contrary, it is au cud which the generation which framed the con? stitution and the Declaration of Inde? pendence declared was unrighteous and abhorrent. So, in my opinion, we have no constitutional power to ac? quire territory for the purpose of hold? ing it in subjugation, in a state of vassalage or serfdom, against the will of its people. Can't Buy Allegiance. "In the present case we have not, I repeat, bought any property. We have undertaken to buy mere sovereignty. There were no public lands in the Phil? ippine Islands, the property of Spain, which we have bought and paid for. The mountains ot* iron and the nug? gets of gold and the hemp bearing fields-do you purpose to strip the own? ers of their rightful titleV We have undertaken to buy allegiance, pure and simple. And allegiance is just what j thc law of nations declares you cannot buy. The power ol* congress to dis- ! pose of the territory or other property of the United States, invoked in this i debate, as the foundation of your cou- ? stitutional right, may carry with it in a proper case a right to the allegiance of the occupant of the soil we own. But we have not bought any property there. The mountains of iron, the nug? gets of gold, the hemp bearing fields, the tobacco and sugar and coffee, are not ours uuless, holding first that we can buy of Spain an allegiance which this people have shaken off, which Spain could not deliver, which does not exist in justice or in right, we can then go on and say that the constitu? tion cf the United States does not ap? ply to territory and that we will pro? ceed to take the private property of this people for public use without their consent. "Whether the inestimable and imper? ishable principles of human liberty are to be trampled down by the Ameri? can republic, and whether its great bulwark and fortress, the American constitution, impregnable from with? out, is to be betrayed from within, is our question now. "Will any gentleman affirm tfcat the framers of the constitution or the peo? ple who adopted it considered as an object and end of their government of limited powers which the Declaration of Independence had declared beyond the just powers of any government and contrary to natural right? Alexan? der Hamilton says the Declaration of Independence is the fundamental con? stitution of every state. "I have been unable to find a single j reputable authority more than 12 months old for the power now claimed j for congress to govern dependent na- j tions or territories not expected to be- j come states. The contrary, until this] war broke out. has been taken as too ? clear for reasonable question. I con-j tent myself with a few authorities. : Amans them tin' Danie! Webster.

CHICAGO, April 30.-By practically a unanimous vote the general committee of the Methodist book concern approved the finding today of the l<x:;il b>ok committee which investigated thu charges filed against Dr. Jennings, pub? lishing agent, thereby ruling that t.io charges were of t(X> trivial a nature to be taken up by the conference.

London, April 30, 5 a. m --The only dispatch from Lord Roberts pub lisbed yesterday was the usual "list of deaths of sickness The flood of of newspaper dispatches today des? cribing the recent operations throws DO light whatever upon the present position of affairs or on the great question as to when the main ad vance ie to begin. The Standard's announcement that Gen French's cavalry are returning to Bloemfontein is clear proof that their is no further hope of catching the retreating Boers and the London papers are beginning to display impatience at the practical failure of the operations cf last week. Without doubt these operations have been of a very exhausting nature and will entail further delay The Bloemfontein correspondent of The Times, writing on March 3, after the Paardeberg affair, describes Lord Roberts' army as a "wreck," because it was without horses and without transport Toe Bloemfontein correspondent of The Post speaks now of the urgent need at present and always of more horses. There is very litt ie news from other quarters. FIGHT AT ISRAEL'S POORT. Thaba N'Cbu, Saturday, April 28 -The adjacent country is now clear, the Boers having retired toward Ladybrand There are interesting developments ahead London, April 30 -A special dis? patch from Thaba N'Chu, dated Thursday, describing the fight at Israel's Poort, which is about seven miles west of Thaba N'*Chu, says : "Three hundred Boers were strongly entrenched on two kopjes The place of honor was given to the Canadians, who advanced very cleverly under their dashing commander, Coi Oiier. The Boers reserved their fire until the Canadians had reached the wire entanglements Then they opened with a terrific bail of bullets. "TheA' Canadians, however, had taken good cover, and were not greatly damaged They were ably supported in the assault by the Grahamstown Horse Successive rushes brought them right up to the kopjes, when Col Otter was struck twice, one bullet inflicting a nasty, but not dangerous, wound in the neck, and the other tearing the bandages from his shoulder. But he still cheered his men on until the kopjes were carried The Boers bolted The British losses were 20 in killed and wounded." Death of Dr. George R. C. Todd of Barnwell. He Was Lincoln's Brother-in law. Charleston. April 28 -Dr George R. C. Todd, Formerly of Kentucky, a brother in law of President Abra ham Lincoln, died in Barnwell, this State, today. He has lived there for many years, practicing medicine with great success ic that and adjoining condies His reputation was so well established that he was called to Charleston immediately after the earthquake in 1886. and during his short stay his services were in great demand He graduated in Danville. Ky , college in 1843 and was for a iong time with the Texas Rangers on the Rio Graude. Afterwards he served the Confederate States with distinc? tion as an army surgeon He said that he renumbered President Lin colo as he appeared in 1844 when a member of coogress "Lincoln,** he said, "was then six feet, six inches tall, with black hair a dark complexion and blue eyes." Dr Todd married in Camden, this State, bot moved to Barnwell, where he has practiced medicine ever since TWO KILLED; MANY INJURED Birmingham, Ala, April 28 -By the collapse of tho frame work of the main building of the Dimmick Pipe I ar.d Foundry Companv in the coursa of ! construction at north Birmiogbaru thi? morning two men are d ad and eleven arr. it jared, at lea>t two of whom rciil d;e Thc dmd: Jnnje-?

McKinley and Hay Backed Down From Demand on Turkey. Washington, April 30 -The broad 6ire3k of yellow down the backbone of the McKinley administration, tbs exhibition of which disgusted so many Americans during the weeks which immediately preceded the war with .Spain, is again in fuil view of the world. The present exhibition is connected with our relations with Turkey Only a few days ago, all of the weil known disseminators of semi official news, ia Washington, were singing a song of jingoism and filling the newspaper men with thrilling stories of the red hot demand the administration had made upon the Sultan of Turkey, to settle those long standing missionary claims at once, and intimating that if the epon duiix was not at once forthcoming, an American fleet would be sent into Turkish waters to forcibly collect it. These stories were duly sent out, but they didn't fire the country even a little tiny bit, the people not being in a jingo humor. Bot they did something else They brought an intimation from Russia, in the politest diplomatic language that there were reasons which made it incumbent opon Russia to object to any forcible collection of claims from the sultan That threw Secretary Hay into a blue funk, almost as bad as would bave followed a snubbing by an English lord, and straightway the yeilow streak in the administration backbone was uncovered, to add to the gaiety of nations and to the humiliation of Americans, and the officiai announce ment made that this government had at no time intended to go beyond diplomatic insistance in trying to make the sultan p3y the claim A famous American wit once comment ed upon an exhibition of a jeliow streak by a public man, by saying : * Ged Almighty hates a quitter/-' end j it is well known to every observing j man that the American people also hate squitter The senate seems to be pretty nearly unanimous in one thing at leaet-that the United States senate bas no authority io investigate a state legislature's qualification to elect a United States senator Al? though the temptation to go behiud the action of the West Virginia legis? lature which elected Nathan B Scott, to the senate was great, there being plenty of evidence of crookedness, only three senators-Pettus and Mor? gan, of Alabama, and Turner, of Washington, voted for the motion of Senator Pettus to send the resolution dedaring Scott entitled to his seat back to committee with instructions to further investigate his election Senator Alien rebuked Senator Chandler for his apparent anxiety to roailroad the resolution reported from the elections committee, declaring Senator Clark, cf Montana, not en titled io his seat through the Senate when he said : "Every man must realize that it is asking a good deal of anyone who occupies a place in this chamber to take the mere conclusions of a committee, without an oppor luoity of reading the evidence upon which those conclusions are based. I am not interested io this case one way or the other, bat the Senate cannot expect to dispose of it in two or three days when it has taken the committee three months to hear witnesses and reach a judgment That would be ridiculous in any tribuual " It is strongly believed that the re? signation o? Senator Clark will make a vote necessary on this resolution, although be still declines to talk for publication Democratic Senators have decided that the army reorganization bill con? tains so many objectional features that they will wot allow it to go through the senate, and notice to that effect has been served on the republi cans. Among the striking features of the army bill are provision for making Gen Miles heutenaut general 1 (put in to catch democratic votes) and Gen Corbin major general; for the increase of the regular army and for doubling the number of cadets to West Point. Senator Jones, of Ark., the democratic leader, who never minces words when he has anything to say, declared the Army bill to be full of rascality I The republican leaders will allow j j the Nicaragua Canal bill to pass the | j House this week, simply because j i they saw that they could not prevent ; I it, but their present programme is to j j hang it up in the Seriate, tor lear that ! ! its passage would not be pleasing to ' I England, which is already somewhat I I displeased because the .Nicaragua! !

AWAITING PORTE'S REPLY Turkey Has Not Answered America's Last Note. CONSTANTINOPLE, April 30. - The United States legation has not yet re? ceived the porte's aus wer to the note handed to Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish foreign minister, by the American charge d'affaires, regarding the indem? nity claims, and the impression is gain? ing ground that the reply will be iu the negative, or even that no reply will be made. The latter alternative, however, seems to be unlikely. The general im? pression is that without a display o? force the porte certainly will not pay the claims, but it wishes to show the world that it yields to force only. It is not considered here that a simple rupture of diplomatic relations will ren? der the porte easier to deal with, but a rupture of formal relations is not thought necessary, as the sending of a warship to a Mediterranean port would suffice to obtain a settlement of the mat? ter in less than 24 hours. I The same proposition for the settle-; mont of the indemnity question by an j order for a warship in the price of which; the indemnity should be included, was formerly made to France and Italy, bat, that M. Coastans and Senor Panza re? jected the proposal. The newspaper' criticisms and comments upon the atti-! trade of Turkey in this affair are causing great irritation at the yildiz kiosk. ? .. - . . _' 1 PALERMO MADE PRISONER.
