CHARLES A. DANA DEAD
A PRETTY PICTURE.
The Veteran Editor Passes
Away.
HIS DEATH WAS NOT UNEXPECTED
Four Months Ago Me Was Taken 111
and Hit Condition Gradually
Grew Worse.
New York. Oct. 17. Chas. A. Dana,
editor of the New. York Sun, died at
12 :30 this afternoon, at Glencove, Long
Island. i
Mr. Dana's death had been expected
tor eeveral hours, and his family and
physicians all sat at the bedside when
the end came. His condition had been
such fcr several month, that members of
his family had kept themselves in con
stant readiness to go td his bedside at
any moment. On Saturday morning he
had a relapse and it was apparent that re
covery was impoesible. Several times,
however, he rallied, but toward night
began to sink. During the night
there. were feeble rallies, but they did
not last long. This morning it was seen
that the end was but a few hours off,
and his attendants remained almost
constantly at his bedside. The end
came quickly. ,
The extreme heat of Friday and Sat
urday bad much te do with hastening
his death. Ou Friday, Mr. Dana showed
signs of distress, and everything possible
was done to relieve him. lie had been
weakened by his long illness, and dur
ing the slimmer was several times
thought to be on the verge of a fatal
collapse, but each time rallied. He did
not improve much with the coming ccol
weather, and the sinking spells became
more frequent. On Friday, Mr. Dana
was able to take only the lightest nour
ishment, and this condition continued.
Paul Dana aitdjiis sisters, Mrs. Drap
er, Mrs. Underhill and Mrs. Brannan,
were at his home on Saturday morning,
and were warned to stay there. They
were at the bedside when death came.
The cause of Mr. Dana's . death was
cirrhosis of the liver. On June 9th he
was at his office, apparently strong and
healthy. The next day he was taken, ill
and never again returned to New York.
He was 78 years old,
Preparations for the burial have not
yet been completed.
FLANS OF BLANCO.
How General Weyler's Successor Will
Attempt to Pacify Cuba. .
New York, Oct. 18. A dispatch to
. the World from Madrid says: :
Marshal Blanco has started for Cuba
to begin the work of pacification. No
i money will be spared to buy off the
chiefs of the insurection, or to make
their departure from the island easy,
although all such proceedings will be
denied officially.
The new governor-general has been
given full power in certain instructions,
a part of which has been kept a secret
from most members of the cabinet. The
reserve instructions cover all tbe interr
national aspect of the Cuban question,
especially Spain's relation' with the
United States, the treatment of Ameri
can citizens in strict observance with
the treaties of 1869 and 1871 with the
United States, respect for foreign own
ership of property, and possible; nego
. tiation with a view to submission of the
insurgents. Such negotiations, accord
ing to the time-honored precedent of
Spanish civil wars, even on the penin-
Cured by

Salve.
"I was troubled with an Eczema or
eruption on tbe bands for two years. I
spent quite a sum of money without get
ting a care. Then I commenced using
Garland's Happy Thought Salve. I have
used six or eight jars, and am cured. It
is a great medicine, and I can fully rec
ommend it to anyone troubled with skin
disease." J. M. E. ATKINSON, ....

sula, will be conducted behind the
scenes if entered into. '
The marehal has devoted a whole
week to long interviews with the queen
regent, Premier Sagasta and tbe minis
ters of war, of marine, of foreign affairs
and of the colonies.
The new governor affects to consider
the state of insurection in Cuba now to
be like what it was in' 1878, when Mar
shal Campo3 .used the same devices,
coupled with premises of reform, aud
amnesty, together with vigorous mili
tary operations, to close the first great
rising. Gen Blanco is likewise equipped
to brfng about pacification bv every
means possile. ,
The military operations to be pushed
on a large scale in the eastern provines of
Santiago and Puerto Principe from No
vember to April will be seconded by the
underground work of the autonomists.
General Blanco is authorized to assure
the Cubans that the instituting of re
forms more liberal than those contrib
uted by the Arrazu bill ot March, 15ti-,
1895, or the Conovas bills, will' depend
upon tbe rapidity and the completeness
of the pacification, which is indispensi
ble for tbe sincere execution of econom
ic and administrative home rule, which,
however, is not intended in any event
to go as far as Canadian self-government.
Spain does not deem an absolutely in
dependent colonial parliraent and ex
ecutive compatible with the rule of the
colony and her own interests andjsover
eignty, as the majority of the autono
mists are said to be disposed to accept
home rule in installments.
Minister Morel believes that the auto
nomists abroad, like Giborga and others
in France, and tbe autonomist leaders in
Cuba will be excellent auxiliaries in
bringing back many of tbe rank and
file who were driven into the rebellion
by General Weyler. Giborga spent 24
hours this week in Madrid incognito,
before he came to see Premier Sagasta
and Minister Morel.
Earl L.1 to Retire.
Tacoma, Oct. 18. According to Chi
nese advices just received, Earl Li Hung
Chang will no longer take an active part
in government. A native correspond
ent writing from Peking says that Li has
been in ill health, though it is not gen
erally known. He is anxious for a rest.
This will permit him to relinquish bis
duty as grand secretary and minister of
the tsung-li-yamen.
He realizes there are many reforms
which China must soon undertake if she
is to preserve her unity, and he would
like to have a part in carrying them, out.
Knowing, however, that only a start can
be made while he lives, and that care
and work will shorten his days, be has
decided to retire as soon as -possible to
the quiet of his own estate in Anhin. '

Imagine a Union Between Amer
ica and. England. '
Tbe Frepotterou Proposition of
Engllih Theoriit National
Element! Tbat Would
Mot. Assimilate. .
. A writer in an' English journal under
takes, to show that the union .of the
United . States and England into one
nation, with one government, would be
an untold blessing', and advances ' a
iiumber of reasons for his belief. "In
time of war," he says, "the combined
fleets would be able to defy any possi
ble combination, and with coaling- sta
tions wit'hin the readiest reach thej
could sweep the seas of their enemies'
shipping1, and convenient ports for
prizes would abound. As for the armies,
it is 'said that the United States could
put 5,000,000 men on a war footing.
Add that to our own total of, say 800,
000, which, in time of war, could ' be
gTeatly added. to, we couhl provide a
united military force of some 6,000,000
men, and face enormous odds by vir
tue of the incalculable resources of the
two richest nations in the world. Com
mercially we could almost absolutely
control the trade of the world, and be
independent of supplies from other na
tions, seeing that what the states lack
in shipping they provide in boundless
tracts of land that can furnish every
thing that can be desired. The surplus ;
population of Brisain, too, would find '
abundant scope in the undeveloped soil
of America. Then, in respect to size,
the new nation would present an area
of 12,541,433 square miles (United'
Stares, 3,470,000; Britain, 9.071,000) '
more than the whole of Africa, and
more than three'tiroes the advantage of
oneness of 'interests, the oneness of
language, the sympathies of blood
kinship, similarity in almost every con
ceivable direction. The united nation
would be able to dominate alike the
world' councils, its trade, its doings
in fact, what the Anglo-Saxon people
said would practically be the law of ;
mankind." 1
Nothing, of course, could be more re- j
mote than the possibility of such a
union. However, it brings up questions
and conjectures that are most inter
esting. Iri the first place there would
have to be a compromise between the
two countries as to the form of govern
ment. Every one of Uncle Sam's sub
jects, is a sovereign unto himself, .and
nothing oould be more odious to him
than to acknowledge allegiance to one
who rules by divine right. Likewise
would it be difficult to engraft in the
breast of the average Englishman that
love of independence, liberty and rev
erence for free institutions that is born
in every American. It is hard for the
Briton to understand that the strength
of & naffion may lie in the unified loyal
ty of all its citizens, without depend
ence upon any family born to the pur
ple, upon tradition, upon the glamour
that, in a monarchy, surrounds the gov
ernmental head. Hence a modification
of the two governments that would best
equalize the widely divergent condi
tions would have Jo be effected.' Natur
ally, some of the features of this gov
ernment would be retained, and no
doubt civil service would be one of
them, as it is essentially an offspring
of royalty. Imagine, if you can, the
prince of Wales or the duke of York
eagerly scanning the newspapers the
morning after an examination to see
if they had passed. Or, with equal
solemnity, try to picture our own Dr.
Depew in all the gorgeousness of gold
lace and knickerbockers, bowing and
scraping around the ruler neither
president nor king, but a portion of
both as a gentleman in waiting.
It is ridiculous to suppose that, with
all these incongruities, and with noth
ing whatever in common between the
two systems of government, that their
union could by any possible chance ever
be brought about. Since the 13 little
colonies dissolved from the mother
country something over 100 years ago,
this nation i has made a phenomenal
growth in everything, but in no one
thing has there been a greater expan
sion thin in patriotism. In a com
mensurate degree has- grown" the dis
like for monarchies and the trappings
of royalty. "..,'
It's a roseate picture this theorist
across the water paints, but. it can
never, never be realized. Cincinnati
