CLEVELAND'S POLICY
Will Not Interfere With the
Occupation of Corinto.
RECOGNIZES ENGLAND'S RIGHTS
Monroe Doctrine CM No Flftrt 80
Long; as En eland Makes Mo Attempt
to Acquire Territory.
Naw Yobk, April 25. A epecial to tbe
8un trom Washington says: "from the
most trustworthy sources it ia learned
today that the president has again up
set the policy which Secretary Gresham
' had outlined in dealing with the Nicara
guan question, and has taken matters
practically in his own hands. There is
to be no protest on the part of the United
States against any action Great Britain
may take in enforcing her demands tor
the prompt payment of the $75,000 in
demnity called fur for ttie expuUion of
her consul-general, Mr. Hatch, who Ni
caragua said had conspired to overthrow
the existing government, and Lord Kim
berly will practically carry oat his plan,
which now seems certain to lead to com
plications, and which may bring upon
the United States the serious question
of demanding the withdrawal of British
sailors and marines from Nicaraguan
territory.
"Mr. Green ana's . carefully outlined
program was to prevent the landing of
troops, the seiaure of the custom-house
and the cession of any land which Ni
caragua might be willing to transfer to
Gieat Britain in payment of the indem
nity. The president, however, has de-.
eided that so long as England makes no
direct attempt to annex any part of
Nicaragua, this country will not interfere
with her purpose to receive prompt re
paration for Hatch's expulsion.
. "Lord Kimberly'a disavowal of any in
tention on Great Britain's part to -extend
territorial jurisdiction over any
' part of Nicaragua, has satisfied the presi
dent that she has every right to adopt
what methods she may please in collec
tion of tbe payment, and while this as-
. turance was only of a verbal nature, and
given to Ambassador Bayard at the time
of the landing of British sailors on tbe
. Mopquito strip some months ago, there
is a general feeling that if she once lands
troops on Nicaraguan soil, she will most
piobably remain there for a longer time
than the president dreams of.
"The exact policy of the administra
tion toward Nicaragua has been some
what vague for months, but there is no
longer the slightest doubt as to its atti
tude. No instructions have been cabled
to Ambassador Bayard asking that no
peremptory steps be taken by Britieh
warships in enforcing the demand, and
none have been forwarded to the United
8tates minister at Nicaragua warning
him of the British purpose of occupying
Corinto. Minister Guzman, the Nicara
guan representative to this country,
has been pacing the coridors of the state
department endeavoring to see Gresham
and secure through him intervention on
the part of the United States. The min
ister has received information from his
government which tends to make him
extremely anxious of the outcome of
British intentions this week. It is tbe
. opinion here among both officials of the
state department and diplomats that
. before the 'end of the week British sailors
and marines will be in possession of the
little commercial city of the republic
and that they will remain on shore un
til tne money is iormcoming, or some
guarantee is given of its payment."
Gibson As;nln Testifies.
San Fbancisco, April 25. Dr. Gibson
was again called to the stand, on tbe re
sumption of Durrant's examination this
morning. He was asked for-gpt-cimnns
of his handwriting, but declined to (rive
it. After a tilt with counsel for the de
Highest ot au in A.etveuuig Power.
fense, however, tbe' clerical witness
finally wrote his name on a piece of
paper, and at the request of the counsel
also wrote the names of George R. King
and Professor Shernstern, which were on
the newspaper in which the rings, of
Blanche Lamont were enclosed. It was
evident from this that tbe defense are
trying to connect Dr. Gibson with tbe
Lamont tragedy. Tbe witness identified
tbe chisel and hammer introduced by
defense as ..his property. He testified
that they were kept in a drawer in his
study. On being questioned as to bis
connection with St. Andrew's Baptist
church, Scotland, the witness stated
that be could not remember the name of
the street upon which it was situated,
although be had lived there three years.
He was asked to give the location in
Emanuel church of the washbasin in
which the blood stains were foun-I, and
replied that it was very close to his
study. He further stated that he sup
plied the towels that were used, and that
they were kept in au unlocked drawer
in the study. - Dr. Gibson corrected the
statement he made yesterday that the
library door wat locked with the old
lock on his first visit before the discovery
of tbe body of the murdered girl. He
now stated it was unlocked.
W. C. McElroy, another new witness.
testified that he saw a man meet a
woman at 8 :30 Friday evening, at the
corner of Bartlett and .Twenty-third
streets. - As the couple passed him, the
man threw bis shoulder around in such
a way as to screen the woman from Mc
Elroy 'a view. The man also partially
turned around and looked at witness.
The couple stopped at the gate leading
to the side entrance. Durrant seemed
to be a little shorter than the man he
saw. Witness afterwards passed through
a passage to a lot in the rear of Bartlett
street to meet a friend, Bert Minna, and
.while waiting there be saw a light in the
rear of tbe church, moving around, as if
from a candle or lantern. When bis
friend joined him be pointed the light
out to him.
Bert Minna, McElroy's friend, next
testified and corroborated McElroy's
statement as to tbe light. The time
they saw the light was about 9 -.40, the
train due at that time having passed
shortly before. ' '
Minister Lome Arrives.
Nkw York, April 25. Senor Dupny
de Lome, new Spanish minister, arrived
from Havana today.
He says the Spanish government pro
poses to send 20,000 soldiers to Cuba by
May 1. It is fully intended to crush the
insurrection by force. All leaders will
be dealt with vigorously by Canapo.".
The government will not buy them off,
as was the case in the previous Insurrec
tion. The minister stated that at pres
ent there were eight modern warships
in Cuban waters.
The Allianca incident, he says, will be
satisfactorily settled. He added he
thought it would have been wise if
the Allianca had stopped and then
put In a claim for indemnity.

ton City and Castroville were devastated,
the houses being riddled like sieves.
The damage to residences and business
bouses in Lyttle alone amounts to $50,-
000. A hundred head of live stock were
killed. The track of the International
St Great Northern railroad was blockaded
with hail stones which had to be re

Japan Can Make no Further Concessions.
St. Pxtirbbuko, April 25. The Jap

of the Russian government, intimating
that there are various conditions in the
treaty of peace between Japan and

hear tell of. a purchaser wanting
to buy an imitation? Why do
men who try to sell such articles
speak of the act as "working
them off?" Simply because peo
ple want the best, and it takes
work and likewise deception to
sell them the worst. This un
pleasant experience may befall the
housekeeper who determines to
the new vegetable shortening.
The healthfulness, flavor, and
economy of this wonderful cook
ing product has won for it the
widest popularity, which in turn
has attracted the attention of
business parasites v.hoare "work

terfeits. Forewarned is fore
armed. Be sure you get the only

China that Russia cannot allow to be
pat into execution, has informed Russia
that if Japan yielded to the exactions of
Russia,' France and Germany, she would
expose herself to a revolution, as tbe
Japanese people are intoxicated with tbe
victories and would assent to no conces
sions. J n spite of this reply, Ruesia is
determined to maintain her demands.
