DEATH BLOW TO THE
MORALES REBELLION
New York Jan 5That the death
of General Demetfio Rodriguez who I
led tha Morales insurrection in Santo
Domingo will be the deathblow to
the uprising was the opinion express
ed yesterday by Fabio Faiallo consul
general of the Santo Domingo govern
iMnt in this city
I According Senor Fiallo President I
i Caceres can give far more substan
tial aid on the pending treaty between I
the United Stats and San Domingo
i
I Ho further declared that General
Morales joined the revolution to de
feat the treaty In discussing the re
lation of the treaty to the present po
litical disturbance in his country the
consul general said I
General Moraless special attempt I
was to make certain provisions of the
treaty the means of establishing his
own personal power This explains
rOt only the friction with the cabinet
but the minifters as well The peo
ple at first disliked article seven of
tho treaty by which the Washington
government was empowered to help
with arms and ammunition the Do
minican executive whenever the lat
ter should require such aid for tho
reestablishment of orlsr Had the
treaty been submitted to the United
States senaU without any amendment
Morales would not have gone to the
revolutionary party His present pur
rso is either to defeat the treaty and
bring anarchistic conditions that even
t lly might give him dictatorial pow
American inter
ers or else provoke
vention Happily President Caceres
aid to
a41i1vt a far more substantial
the treaty than Morales could He
not onlv has the full confidence of
tha cabinet and his party but has
moreover the cooperation of EmiH
ana Tejera the minister of foreign af
fairs without doubt the most influen
tial man in San Domingo

Cincinnati d with Mrs Maud Bal
lington Booth in their campaign for
the filling of t the hopelessly Insane
hopefessljii disused anVvietuns of ac
cidents His views are expressed in
a letter written to Miss Hall and
made public here today
Dr Norton was formerly professor
of literature at Harvard He was
a friend of Longfellow and Lowell
and with them madei n the famous
translation of the Divine Come ly
He heads his letter An Appeal to
Reason As Well as Compasslon ad
dresses Miss Hall and writes
The principle that it is a duty to
prolong every human life as long as
possible at whatever cost has hither
to been generally accepted
Its main support has been the doc
trine of the sacredness of human
life
UfeThe
The doctrine and the practice have
both been pressed too far There is
no ground to hold every human life
as inviolably sacred and to be pre
served no matter with what results
to the individual or others On the
Contrary here are cases to which
evry resonable consideration urges
that the end should be put Setting
aside all douKful cases no right
thinking man would hesitate to give
adose of laudanum sufficient to end
suffering and life to the victims or
an accident from the torturing effects
of which recovery is impossible how
ever many hours of misery might bo
added to conscious life by stimulants
or surgical operations
Nor should a reasonable man hes
itate to hasten death in case of a
mortal disease such for example as a
cancer when It has reached the stage
of incessant severe pain and when
the patient sires to die
The prolongation of life in suca
cases by whatever means is mere
criminal cruelty
Or take another instance that or
an old person whose mind has become
I a chaos of wild Imagination produc
I tive of constant distress not only to
the sufferer but to all who live and
attend him The plain duty in such i
I cases is not to proton but shorten
life >
I It is not to be hoped that supersti
I tion so deeply rooted in tradition as
that duty of prolonging Uf3 at any
I cost wH readily yield arguments of
reason or the pleadings of compas
sion but the discussion of the sub
ject in all its aspects may lead gras
uslly to a more public opinion and
the consequent ralief of much
misery P I
