JJo sooner did tho new Spanish minis ter arrive In Washington than he start ed his type writer to work giving out Interview*" to the press concerning the Cuban situation. The tenor of his first effusion Is praise for autonomy, which has proved such a miserable failure as a means of restoring peace oa the Island. All 'that Senor Bcrnabe says concerning the beauties of that "gold-brick" which tho Spanish government offered the In surrectionists has been said before by his predecessor, and by sundry other Spanish statesmen and military com manders. It may be ail right as a theo ry but It has not worked in practice. Even the minister himself Is forced to admit that "with an Insurrection drag King to a close, there arc difficulties In the way of a complete realization of plans so comprehensive as to embrace the entire Internal machinery of Cuba." However, he is confident that if autono my is given a chance It will eventually succeed. It would be Interesting to know what Senor Bernabe regards as a "chance." The President of tho United ..rates haii given about all the chance that Spain could reasonably desire, af ter three years of lighting and not one thing to show for It except a devastated country, a war debt of a half billion dol lars. tho starvation of many thousands of people, the sacrifice of a hundred and .fifty thousand tnwpe, and peacc nr. far away, so far as Spanish attempts to bring- It about are concerned, as it was in the beginning. The coolness of the Spanish minister In referring to the Insurrection as "drawing to a close," Is refreshing truly We have also heard that before, and have been hearing it daily from almost the outbreak of 'the rebellion. General Weyler's type writer announced it as glibly as docs that of the Spanish minis ter. Autonomy is a failure, and this government knows It as well as does the government at .Madrid and its accredit ed represehtative at Washington. That Is why the United States government has ceased to regard it as an element in the situation, and Inends to take a hand in the matter, afler having given the Spanish government all the "chance" that it can reasonably expect. Late dispatches from Washington in form us that there has been no modifi cation of the President's intention to "obtain the recognition of Cuban inde pendence and to establish peace through intervention," though he has not yet given up the hope that the Spanish gov ernment will come to see that some other method of bringing about the desired re-' eult may be effective. Whatever may be the finding In the Maine affair these two propositions, it is said, are to be car ried out. In the .Maine affair, while hardly any doubt longer remains that the destruc tion of the battleship was by an external force, the United.States must fix and es tabllsh the responsibility. This Is the work of t>he board of Inquiry and the President cannot act, nor does the puOTc expect him- to act. upon outside Informa tion or the theories advanced by specu lators and yellow newspapers. Absolute grounds that can be sustained by official authority only will govern tho Presi dents acts. No other course would be Just or sustained by International law y.o other course would be in accordance' tvltn the American sense of right. The wholo matter is put in a feu words by a Washington dispatch which Bays: "If It be shown by competent evi dence that high Spanish officials were accessories to the wrecking of the Maine, it will Indicate the first degree of culpability. If ,t be pr0VC(1 tha? officers plotted tho destruction of the ir;,r that,the re,pon6lb'c military authorities were not cognizant of the conspiracy, it would constitute the sec ond degree. But If it be proved that Ir responsible civilians were guilty 0f the offense tho responsibility will be mini mized." -This is what the board of In-' qulry ts now trying to determine. What over the result, It Is not expected to change the President's Intention ,o tiring peace oncc more to Cuba, and, It Is believed, , on tho -basis of Cuban Inde pendence. The matter of course will bo tfubmlMed to Congress. This Is the situation whlrti Senor Her ?n" hc lrl" understand bet ter after he remains In Washington awhile. His WCnk efforts to Impress upon the public mind the btautles of au tonomy have come too late. Autonomy as applied by Spain is not autonomy, it l^n^ro a ion ami a snare. War I* not necessarily an outcome of tho sit ..on,r^r xssz*? *row? out of th. failure of ?uL^ than In appeallni? for a ?otftlnuancs of a policy which the Spanlih. government baa demonstrated iti Impotency to carry out. Mr. Rnekrr oit tlio Chilton Mntt?r. A letter written fcy Attorney General Rucker, In reply to the criticisms of the ntate administration, anil of him in par ticular, with reference to t|ie treatment of the Chilton shortage, Is very much to fho point and gives ample/ reasons for the fact th!at ths attorney general has not brought a criminal prosecution against Chilton; also for the collection of moneys from foreign corporations that had Illegally paid their taxes to Chilton, who was not the proper ofllcer to receive them. The letter, which will t>o found elaewhero, is addressed to the Charles ton Gazette, the Democratic organ at the state capital, which paper has been un usually vicious 1n Its criticisms of the administration's course, and has been impugning the motives of the governor and other 6tatc officers. Mr. Rucker defends himself and the administration from the unjust charge, which Implies afcout everything fhort of collusion with Mr. Chilton In the aftalr, and ho shows clearly that under his con struction of the law he Is following out a proper course. He declares that his first duty is tho collection of the money, and that there Is no Intention of forcing the corporations to pay their taxes twice; that on the payment of the Chilton short age the money will be repaid, and that if the Chilton shortage Is not recovered he will ask the legislature to refund the money. Ills duty now, however, Is to hold the corporations responsible for the results of their own Ignorance of the law. He must follow out the duty that la imposed upon him by tho law. Mr. Rucker polnt6 out that If an In dictment la to be brought against Chil ton, the duty belongs to the prosecuting attorney of Kanawha county. If crimi nal proceedings are neceesary there 1h a time to take such action. The Gazette, in commenting on Mr. Rucker's letter, totally Ignores the matter of the attor ney general's action regarding the col lection of the charter taxes from the corporations, and reiterates its ab?urd proposition that the administration is holding back the Chilton matter "until the campaign gets hot" and that then it will he "rushed;" it also thinks Chilton should bo in the penitentiary, and criti cises the administration because he is not there. The points concerning the matter made by Mr. Rucker arc totally ignored. * Considering the unjust critlcisTOS of the administration ofllcers that appear in the Gazette, reiterated after Mr. Rucker's logical explanation, and the enthusiastic desire exhibited by the Ga zette to see Chilton sent to the peniten tiary, regardless of the circumstances surrounding the case which might make such an effort impoesJble, and consider ing also that the Gazette Is the organ of the ambitions of a rival faction of the Democracy which has every reason to see the power of the Chlltoru cut ofT. It seems that the Gazette, in resorting to unjust means and untruthful imputa tions against the state administration, is not moved altogether by an un6olrt?h and patriotic desire to see Justice vindi cated. The personal animus is welU under stood. The Gazette knows that the ad ministration olliccrs are taking the proper and legal course 1n the matter and will recover to the state treasury the money, or as much as possible, that Is due it. .There is more behind the Ga zette's assaults than may be evident to the uninitiated. A man named George McCoy, who has been flooding the country with circulars announcing that he would transport people to the Klondike from Portland, Oregon, with 1,000 pounds of haggage, for the sum of $300 .and was selling tickets to unsuspecting ones, has been arrested by the government authorities for using mails for fraudulent purposes. Prospective Klondlkcrs should be care ful, before dealing with men. who ofTer them such cheap means for getting to the Klondike, to ascertain if they repre sent a bona fido transportation com pany. ~ Admiral Slcard regards the voting of the appropriation of 550,000,000 for tho national defense as a satisfactory meas ure of confidence, and remarks that a nation that can raise such a sum in a few hours for such a purpose is not a nation to be trifled with. It i9 a warn ing to all the world, he thinks, that the American government is powerful In Its^ own strength and has the support of the entire people. It will make it compara tively easy to enforce any just demand we may have against Spain. The long overdue Paris reached port at last with nothing more serious the matter with her than a broken 6haft. Her passengers and crew were all safe and well. In view of the fact that the Paris has been in trouble "before there were grave fears for her safety, and her arrival lifted a cloud of anxiety from tho minds of the friends of her 181 passen gers. It Is possible that the alleged qyota I tlon from Emperor William, of Ger | many, to the cfTect that as long as he Is ? alive "the Yankees shall not take pos I session of Cuba." Is another yellow Jour nal "fake." The kaiser has said and I done some very imliccreet things, hut we arc not prepared to believe that ho ever I uttered anything so nssinine as that. J A fresh outbreak of the Phllllpplne in surrectionists Ls giving Spain something I to look after beside the crisis on this side of tho Atlantic. It will not be aurprls 1 lng If the present state of affairs ends In her losing her oriental possessions as 1 well as those In the Atlantic. ! Mark Twain is again happy, having paid the last dollar of tho indebtedness Which he asumed from a sense of honor. He hopes now to spend his old age In j the homr' he had sacrificed,and all Amer ica will hope to see his ambition grati fied. Tho Long Island Inventor of an air ship who proposes to fly across the ocean is wise to decide upon a trial trip to Washington first. Gladstone's St. Patrick's Day greeting to the Irish members of parliament Is: "Tho causo of Ireland la dn your own hand*. With Ireland divided her cause ia hopeless,tout with Ireland ono in rolnd and one In fplrlt her cause is irreslst able."Thls Is a great truth ihat Is 1>orne out by the history of the successful ac complishment of nearly all such move men ta oj that which Ireland Is engaged in.

Probably Joan of Arc was burned to death because she woro clothes like a raqn. A woman's real troubles never worry her half as much as the ones she gets up clubs about. Whenever you accuse a girl of being Jealous she says it Is because you have no conception of her real feelings. It's it hard strain on a man to have the minister come to supper the samo day he had to get the clinkers out of the furnace.

Washington- Po9t: Gen. Grosvenor's ready wit in debate has already become proverbial, and the only surprising thing about him is that never for a moment, when on hi? feet, can members find him napping. This was lhe case yesterday. "The grim old lion\)f Ath ens" was making a rpeecfr in behalf of the war claim3, under consideration, ami undertook to local*? the blame for delayed payments where he thought it belonged?with the Democratic party. He began to read, a column of statistics showing Just how much money past congresses had voted towards the pay ment of this class of claims and, when he reached, the Fifty-second' congress, declared that the Democrats of that body voted to pay only $597. Representative Richardson, or Ten nessee, often* called "Slim Jim," inter posed an explanation. "Don't say the organization." said Mr. Richardson- in correcting Gen. Grosvenor. "I was with you in that congress insisting that these claims should be paid." "But you were not the organization," put its Gen. Grosvenor, at which the house was in an uproar of taughter, "but I hope some time in the providence of God you may be." 'Silver Dick" Bland, of Missouri, then took up the cudgel against Gen. Grosve nor, and in behalf of the Democrats of the Fifty-second congress. "Don't you think that the Democrats had many difficulties in that congress?" he asked aggressively. "You always have difficulties." came back the answer quick ns a flash. "You were born in difficulties." and "Silver Dick" walked back to his seat, enjoy ing the wit as much as any of the law makers. _ Pant diiiI Prmrnt.
