13 the tribunes Tri bunea washington special has a report of an important interview with the president in which the latter in a measure confesses the inadequacy of his hid southern policy it is from the rational be publican he says substantially the time for discus slon alon is passed determined vigorous action is imperative the cabinet reached this determination beveral several days ago and lately has been beebi considering the duty of the attorney general in the premises the bou aou bouthern southern thern policy was inaugurated with the earnest desire to conciliate round oft off the sharp an gies glei and soften the asperities asperi ties of apolitical strife nobody will say an attempt was not made to most earnestly carry out this policy of personal and partisan sacrifice I 1 made in this edfort effort and of the consequent interruptions of certain relations which previously existed between myself and bome borne of my supporters bup eup portera I 1 have nothing cosay to say just now but it appears that the leaders who made those pledges did not exert themselves to keep them or were unable to do so in fact I 1 am reluctantly forced to admit that the was a failure the first important election held since it was attempted has proven that fair elections with free suffrage for every voter in the bouth are an impossibility under the exl exi sing condition of things it Is not because the republican party appears aa as sufferers in these results that I 1 complain it is because free suffrage and freedom of political rights has been interfered with that I 1 am called upon to take cognizance of these disturbances if the republicans bad committed these outrages upon the democrats my duty would be the same it will not do for me or any official to treat these quest questions ions lons other wise than in an unpartisan way A partisan press will naturally take a partisan view of the case and I 1 will be held to account for aiding the republican q and flaunting the 69 bloody shirt but for all that I 1 shall do my duty as chief magis of the nation and if in the faithful execution of the laws justice demands the punishment of thia or that man whatever his political connections may be I 1 shall not be deterred by partisan ariti cism all that I 1 know la Is that great crimes have been committed and it is my duty to aid in the punishment of the criminals I 1 do not mot think the southern leaders leadem who promised to protect the blacha are responsible for these crimes bampton for example tried repeatedly to repress the violence which characterized

society last night on the augua route the admiral says no route exists comparable with that the most important physical feature is the existence of lake nica which when full fall is feet above the ocean level this is designed to be the summit level of the canal the cost of the canal will fall short of the question at issue is can an inter ocean canal be constructed with advantage to its constructors as well as to the advantage of the commerce of the world information from the best sources indicates that not less than tons of british and american shipping would pass through the danai canal yearly leand and that the aggregate aggra gate conage of the other commercial powers would be a very great saving the distance between new york and san francisco would be miles the admiral
