"Regarding the reported coutrol of

some weeks ago, the block of stocks
amounting to $8,460,000 from the
trustees of the collateral trust mort

stock gives the Union PacSfio a pre'

$1,778,600, it does not, we are informed,

the insurgents are forgotten. Propress
with autonomy is a figment. The tur
moil seems ended for the present. The
presence of 5000 or 6000 regular troops
gives premise that the calm will last
long enough for a review of .the pros'1
pect. A single week has given Hava
na a more vivid idea of what war is
than all the events of three years of
insurreotioa.-
The.tact and forbearance with which
the officers carried out their orders has
brought the government temporarily
through the crisis. . When the mob
was crying death to Blanco and to
autonomy, self-restraii.t was necessary.
The cries for Weyler. were the most
pronounced of all. They showed that
he bad mary partisans in the city who
are determined to-proclaim themselves.
- The authorities - for- a month had
be.en taking precautions against a hos
tile demonstration They did not ex
pect' that it would be' encouraged bv
officers of the army; Until these offi
cers are properly disciplined respect
for the government cannot be restored
and Goneral Blanco does not seem pow
erful enough to cashier them.
General Lee s advices to the state
department are-conservative, but set
forth the real situation clearly. He
does not recommend immediate inter
vention, yet be does not lake a hope
ful view of the ability of the Spanish
trtborities to restore public order per-
manentlv.
The government newspapers deplore
the rioting, and say that it has done
more for the Insurrection that Gomez
or Garcia could do. Tbey also say that
it will have a bad effect in the United
States.
The question of seoding warships
will have to be determined soon. No
anti-American demonstration has yet
occurred. The trouble lies between
Spanish factions, and apparently tneir
minds are fully occupied with destroy-
ng autonomy. If further rioting'
should break out it is possible that a
feeling would be aroused against AtberV
leans which would be hard to restrain.

It la Judge Cleland.
Salem, Or., Jan. 1(5. Governor
Lord at six o'clock lasi evening ap
pointed John B. Cleland, of Portland
judge of the fourth judicial district of
Oregon, vice L. B. Stearns, resigned
tne same time tno governor ap
pointed C. S. Wright, of Astoria,
pilot commissioner, vice John Fox,
resigned.
These appointments relieve the gov
ernor of the trouble of choosing from
a number of applicants whose claims
have been earnestly pressed the past
few days. Though there were a num
ber of applications and recommenda
Hons for Judge Stearns' place, the
fight was -between Judge Cleland and
Lawyer Fnuer. A preponderance of
the recommendations from the legal
profession was in favor of Cleland, and
bfs known experience in equity law
had weight in hu favor.
The selection of a pilot commls
sioner was not without perplexity. . . A
number of applications were received
by the governor from prominent
Astoria' citizens and they, too, had
long lists of recommendations.

Remain of Prehistoric Animal Dlaeovered
In England.
From time to time the peat beds at
Newbury have, yielded abundant re
mains of prehistoric animal which in
primeval ages roamed ulong the Ken-
net valley; when the phyhical condi
tions obtaining in western Europe were
altogether different from thonc which
now prevail before, in fact, the present
insular position was brought aliou t. I n
these peat beds, according to u London
dispatch, have been found the remains
of the colossal mammoth, including the
portion of a tusk which, when entire,
must have been ten to twelve fec-t in
length, tog-ether with the bonea, teeth
'or horn of other animals which have
utterly disappeared from the face cf

A Glsnntle Undertaking.
Undismayed by their experience in
the Suez and Panama cntcrpi-Ucs, the
French arc undertaking to build an
other RTcat canal. They have now
determined to connect the I'ay of ItU
cay with the Mediterranean by a
canal over 403 miles long, from H
to 215 feet wide an! from "-J to 31
feet deep, and with widened pacing
E laces every eight railcs. Tht-ra will
a twenty-two loalcs, each CIO feet in
length and 80 feet in wil tit.. The
cct is calculate! at 610.i.00:i.0-J0. It
is, however, safe to say that it will
be much more. It is claimed by its
promoters that besides greatly cspclit
ing commerce, this waterway will be
of vast political cigniilcancc. If it-
could only be kept open in war, Gib
raltar, the strongest fort in the world,
would be rendered useless, and France,
Instead of England, would hold the
"Key to the Mediterranean."
