FORMER MOVES AS TO CUBA.
As a menace to the amicable
relations between this country
and Spain, the Cuban question is
far from being, a latter-day -matter.
Long betore the war Cuba
was from time to time an issue
in our policy, and it was the con
viction of some of the ablest
ante bellum statesmen that the
interests of ill three parties con
cerned the United States, Spain
and Cuba demanded the eman
cipation of the island from the
Spanish yoke. The New York
Mail and Express, in discussing
this subject, calls attention to
two notable incidents as illus
trating the prominence with
which the Cuban problem figured
in our earlier history. One of
these was the effort of President
Polk, in 1818, to buy the island
from the. Spanish Crown, and the
other was the meeting of the
Ostend Conference, in 1854, which
drew up the "Oatend Manifesto."
The offer of President Polk
was rejected with iudignation by
Spain, .and the "Ostend mani
festo," which also looked to the
purchase of Cuba, never amount
ed to anything, beyond kicking
up a hubbub in diplomatic cir
cles; but both episodes go to
show that the view of our fath
ers regarding tne uuban issue
was no less serious than is oujs.
The Ostend Conference grew
out of the trouble in the harbor
of Havana over the American
steamer Black Warrior. It con
vened by instructions from the
irresiaent, tnrougn mr. Marcy,
Secretary of State, and its ob
ject was to further negotiations
with Spain on the subject of
Cuba. The conference met at
Ostend but adjourned to Aix la
Chapelle. Its members were:
Pierre Soule, our Minister to
Spain; John Y, Mason, our Min
ister to France; and James hSuch
anan, our Minister to England;
and the outcome of their dehb
erations was the "Ostend Mani
festo," in the form of a letter
from the three ministers - to our
government.
-The Mail and Express says.
tru'v. that th -manifesto en
unciated a-doctrine beside which
the present demand for recog
nition of Cuban belligerency
seems very tame and conserva
tiye Our contemporary's article
is calculated to mislead, bow
ever, where it states ijhat it was
proposed that, should Spain
flatly refuse to sell the. island, it
would be proper for this govern-;
men t to takeAJuoa irom its op
that we should be "justified by
every law, human and Divine, in
wresting the island from Spam,
if we have the power."
The words last quoted occur
in effect in the "manifesto.'" but
the suggestions to our govern
ment as to seizing the island are
coupled with contingencies. The
document does not mince mat
ters, but there is in it, so to
speak, a big diplomatic "if."
After arguing that the. in jney it
was proposed to pay Spain for
tt.e island could be used by Spain
in a way that would make that
country blossom lik a rose, the
"manifesto" says:
"Our past history forbids that
we should & quire the Island of
Cuba without the consent of
Spain, unhss justified by the
grea Jaw of selfpreservalion.
We must in any event preserve
our owu conscious rectitude and
our own S3 If respect.
"While pursuing this coarse,
we can afford to disregard the
censure of the world, to which
we have been so of ten and so un
justly exposed. After we shall
have offered Spain a price for
Cuba far beyond its present val
ue, and this shall have been re
fused, it will then be time to
cousider the question. Does Cuba
in the possession of Spain seri
ously endanger our internal
peace, and the existence or our
cherished Union?
"Should this question be an
swered in ihe affirmative, then,
by eyery law human and divine,
we shall be tustihed in wrestling
it from Spain, if we possess the
power, that would justify an in
dividual in tearing down tne
burning house of a ne'gtbor. if
there were no other way of pre
venting the flames from destroy
r, bis own house.
'Under such circumstances we
ought neither to regard ihe cir
cumstances nor count the odds
which Spain might enlist against
us. We forbear to enter into
the question whether the present
condition of the island would
justify such a measure. We
would, however, be recreant to
our duty, te unworthy of our
gallant forefathers, and commit
base treason against our poster
ity, should we permit Cuba to
become Africanized and become
a second Domingo, with all at
tendant horrors to the white
race, and suffer the flames to ex
tend to our own neighboring
shores, seriously to endanger or
actually to consume the fair fab
ric of our Union.
"We fear that the course, and
current of events are rapidly
tending to such a catastrophe
We, howeyer, hope for the best;
though we ought certainly to
prepare for the worst."
Though our government to all
intents ignored the "manifesto,"
the Cuban question remained in
a measure an issue in party pol
itics until it was obscured by the
excitement iust antedating tne4-
civil war. In view of th fact
that it was contended that the
authors of the "'manifesto" two
of them were Southern men
were inspired in a measure by
fear that the conditions in Cuba
might affect perniciously the
slave population of the Southern
States, the Republicans in their
platform of 185G denounced the
"manifesto'' as follows:
"Resolved, That the highway
man's plea that 'might make
right' embodied in the Ostend
circular was in every respect un
worthy of American diplomacy,
and would bring shame and dis
honor upon any government and
people that would give it their
sanction."
The Democratic platform of
that year did not allude to the
mauifesto in terms, but com
mitted the party to some of the
broader.and more general prin
ciples involved in it, and in 1860
the party declared for the acquis
ition of Cuba by purchase. From
this presentation it will be seen
that in the post-bellum advances
of the Cuban question to the
front history has simply in a
sense, ispeated itself, and that
although the civil war eliminated
some of the phases of the issue,
our policy regarding the island,
irrespective of the Monroe doc
trine in its most comprehensive
scope and our sympathy with
the Cubans have been practically
continuous.

"Decision in am old Suit.
Treniot:. V J., December o.
The Mew Jeie.v Court of Errors
has rendered a dteision holdii g
that certain money now in tht
hands of the United States Treas
urer, to the extent of 22,000,
the balance uf an adjusted claim
in favor of Ex-Governor Rod
man JM. Price, is liable as assets
for the liquidation of his per-uu
iary obligations.
The suit was instituted by
Anna M. Purest, administratrix
of Samuel Forrest, who. in 1857,
obtained a judgment against Ex
Governor Price for 17,000. La
ter, ihe Treasury Department
adjusted the claim, woich the
Ex Governor had against the
government foi money which he
as purser of the United States
navy paid over to his successor.
ThiB money amounted to f 76,000.
Part was paid ovr to Mr. Price
and proceedings were instituted
to have the balance of the money
applied to the payment of the
Forrest judgineut. This Gov.
ernor Price resisted and finally
got himself adjudged in con
tempt of the Court of Chancery
of iNsw Jersey. In the meant ime
he died.
Twenty-two thousand dollars
of the 76 C00 still remained in
the hands of the United States
Treasurer, who is awaiting a ju
dicial decision as to whom he
should pay it. The Court of
Chancery had appointed a re
ceiver to receive the money and
dispose of it as the court di
rected. Unless there is further
litigation the money will now
be used to liquidate the Forrest
judgment.

Washington. December 3 The
interest felt by Congressmen in
the attitude assumed by the ad
ifoist ration towards the Cuban
by the
of calls Secretary O.uey
is receiving from such of the
Senators and members of the
Huase as have arrived in Wash
itfgTn in anticipation of the as
sembling of Congress next Mou
day. Naturally the Secretary's
visitors take advantage of the
call to seek the latest official
news as to Cuba, but as far as
can be learned the department
has little information ou that
subject to communicate. The
olhj thing that does appear to be
established by the testimony of
tht se callers is that the adminis
tration contemplates no change
in the line of policy it has pur
sued so consistently since the
beginning of the lusunectiou
two years ago. While that part
of the President's message
which will deal with the subject
has not yet been finally reduced
to form, it is believed that it will
be a brief, but cogent, presenta
tion of reasons that have influ
enced the administration in hold
ing to its present attitude. The
events of the past year&'s cam
paign probably will be rapidly
reviewed with the purpose of
showing that the insurgents so
far bav failed to meet the re
(luireraents originally laid down
by the President as essential to
their recognition. They have
fought no general engagement to
a successful issue; have not es
'.abashed a permanent seat of
government, and have no sea
port. In other words they have
not sensibly changed their con-
union irom wnat it was a year
tgo, so that by the same line ef
reasoning laid down by the ad
ministration in the statement
setni-cfiicially published through
the Associated Press last Spnu
Mere is at present no occasion
for a change of policy on our
part. It is presumed, however,
that in addition to a statement
lo this effect the President will
not hesitate to. deplore the con
tinuance of the present unsatis
factory conditions in Cuba, in
jurious as they are to American
interests, and under cover of his
message may intimate to Spain
the Lecessity of a termination of
existing evils at a reasonably
early date.

William Steinway Duried.
, New York, December 3. The
body of Wiiliam Steinway was
laid in the tomb with impressive
ceremonies yesterday afternoon.
Public services were held in the
Liederkranz Hall, which had
never before contained so ,many
people. At 11 o'clock the fun
eral cortege left the residence
and proceeded to Liederkranz
Hall. A private ceremony, at
tended only by the family had
previously been held. The body
was escorted to the hall by four
former presidents of the Lieder
kranz. On the arrival at the hall
it was met by the pall bearers,
and was borne into the great
ha'.l, where it was placed on a
catafalque and lay in state until
'he funeral. The rosewood cas
ket was covered with black
broadcloth and surrounded by a
profusion of floral designs and
great bunches of roses and vio
lets. Massed on each side of the
entrance to the r hall were 2,000
of the employesof William Stein
way & Son, each.with , a band of
crepe upon the "left arm. They
had marched from the Steinway
factory, at Fifty-Fourth street
and Fourth avenue.
Many persons of note, espe
cially in the music woi Id, were
present at the services, and great
singers lent their voices to do
honor to. : the - memory of the
dead.

Washington, Dec. 4.
President Cleveland has tin
doubtedly issued his ultimatum to
his party leaders. This becomes
more ana more apparent as wre
hear echoes from the McKinley
residence in Canton, : through the
human phonographs which come
to this capital. Congressman Bur
ton, of Cleveland, a long time
personal friend of McKiuley, who
served with him in the Fifty-first
Congress, and who has" been a per
Knai irienu or laiK tianua tor a
score of years, as well as a near
neighbor, arrived here to-day and
announced his personal opinion
most vigorously that "there will
be no tariff legislation during the
coming session of Congress."
Congressman Babcock, of Wis
consin, chairman of the Kcpubli-
cah Congressional committee, ar
rived this morning from Canton,
where he had an extended confer
ence with Major McKinloy and
JMr. Hanna, and be emphasizes
what Air. Burton has said. It
is very apparent that JMcKin
ley docs not want prosperity too
quickly. Being the advance agent
of prosperity he wants tho McKin-
ley hill passed while he is m the
White House. Congressman Bab
cock says: "I have no doubt
that there will be an extra session
of Congress verv soon after Mc
Kinlev is inaugurated. JJNo se
rious effort will be made to pass
the Dingley bill during the coming
short session of Congress which
will bo a producer of revenue, of a
conservative nature, affording am
ple protection to all American in
dustries needing protection, but it
will not be so extreme a measure
as the McKinley bill of 1890."
