Scoator Elklns said this afternoon that ho still thinks peace will bo the outcome of the present agita tion. He bases his opinion upon the theory that the negotiations will be reopened and * iat Spain will yet see Ita way clear to ac cepting the propositions of the United States. "Suppose negotiations have beea suspended , " ho said. "They an be reopened. I should not bo surprised If they had already been reopened nor to hear any hour that Spain had yielded. " He added his expression of the belief that such pressure would be brought to tocar upon Premier Sagasta that ho could not do otherwise than yield to the extent of permitting Cuba to become free. "It will be a question with him , " said the senator , "of loslog Cuba , Porto Rico , the Philippines , the ministry anJ the present dynasty Itself , all of which are Inevitable If ho goes to war , "and of losing Cuba , which will be the only result of acquiescing In our demands. "Of course these matters are being brought to his attention and of course , as a sensible ma'j , Interested In the welfare of his country , ho will accept our terms and nave all ho can out of the situation. " The senator expressed the opinion that not only Franco anJ other European powers were exercising their Influence with effect , but that also the financial aad religious powers were being brought to bear In a way that must bear fruit for peace. "It Is a common sense proposition , " he said In conclusion , "and In the onj com mon serse must win. As for the United States It canoot afford to spend $1,000,000,000 and destroy many thousands of lives to secure the Independence of the Cubans and If they go to war at all It should be for sorno other reason. " "It sho.uld bo , left for como other reason I than merely to secure the Independence o ! ! Cuba. There are other grounds upon which to make our case stronger than the Inde pendence of Cuba. " The senator said that If wo go to war tc secure the Independence of. Cuba wo would lese Cuba as a part of ariy war Indemnity , but If we go to war for other reasons we would have not only Cuba but Porto Rico as well to pay In part for our war expenses. In other words , Mr. Elklns did not believe wo should give away Cuba by recognizing He Independence , for otherwise we could not claim the Island as a part of our Indemnity , IllK Etaporntor for Key AVeiJt.

Mrs. Dunn hao been visiting rlenda In Denver * during the past two wceko nd In the meantime Mr. Dunn has stayed Ith the family of a relative. Consequently he robbery was not discovered until yester- ay when they went to reopen the house , he burglars had rummaged through the en- Ire house and the contents of drawers find loaots were scattered ovt-r the floors. They ad left nothing In the houoe that could be rofltably carried away except a small eum F money In cae of the bureau drawers and he thieves had apparently revenged them- elves for their small haul by doing as much amage as possible. SCARED BY A WOMAN. The wit and quickness of another woman aved her home from houi < cbreakers on last unday night. After 'the ' burglars had made lelr descent upon the residence of Rev. ota McQuoId , 316 North Twentieth street , ley visited the house of Jay B. Merrill , two locks further south , on the corner of Twcn- .eth street and Capitol avenue. They had ist succeeded Ini effecting an entrance by ic similar means of a skeleton key , when ley were foiled by the prompt action of Irs. Merrill. The front door had not been secured as. sual with the ini'ldo lock , as a portion of he family were absent at church and were xpeoted to admit themselves with a latch : ey. Mrs. Merrill WES sitting alone In the arlor when she heard footsteps ascending ho steps leading to the front door. The bell ang and she went to a window on the north Ide to recannoiter. The large electric light at the corner of the street threw the heavy hadow of two men upon the unbroken sur- ace of the house next door. The light warj o close that the figures of the men could e seaa la minute distinctness aiid Mrs- - , lervlll was not favorably Impressed with heir appearance. She went to the door and vas able to confirm her opinion through the enrl-transparerkt glass. The men waited a hort Interval after ringing and then pres' ' d be bell again , long and steadily. There was till no response and when a third trial was Dually fruitless , Mrs. Merrill heard one of hem remark to his companion , uho was at ho foot of the steps , "Tnere'a nobody here , Dill. Come ahead. " She saw another dim gure through the glass and In toother noment a key woo fitted In the leek. It wcs pparcntly of an excellent pattern for It hrew the bolt softly and a hand on. the neb pushed the door softly open. Mrs. Merrill ma3o no outcry , but held hor- elf In readiness to act at the right mo ment. As the burglar reached the thresh old she threw her weight against the door nd pusheds It strongly in his face. The obber was unprepared for such a silent and Igorous rcpulso and gave way. He could orm no idea otwhat reception awaited ilm In the dark hallway and with his com- anlon cleared the steps at a bound and dls- ppeared down Capitol avenue. Shortly aft- rward services at the Methodist church a ow doors away 'were dismissed and Mrs. lerrlll was rejoined by her 'family. ' A police man also came In sight a few minutes later nd the matter was reported to him. But Utle description could be glvco of the men , xcept that they were heavily built and of medium he.lght. DOO IN THE WAY. A few nights ago a similar attempt was made by burglars to enter the house of llchard W. Johnson , 2122 Ohio street. The lonscbreakers were put to flight In this case y a largo St. Bernard dog , which Is allowed o sleep In the hall. During the night some- ine commenced operations on-tho front door , vlth a skeleton key and was able to ua- ock the door. The dog was stretched across ho path , however , and when the robber tarted' upstairs he met opposition. Ho was cot enough to make his escape , but the amlly was brought down stairs by the com motion. Mr. Johnson found that the key tad been turned In the lock and pushed out f the keyhole. - Lord Coleridge thought Cook's Imperial Champagne the best-he eor tasted.
