Preparing for War.

Some Of the leading American dealers in
arms and ammunition who have enjoyed
large trade with foreign governmen have
just found new customer. China. in view
of her unsettled relations with France and
her dispute with Japan, thinks she has i'm
mediate occasion to re-equlp her army, and
the chinese government is looking to Amer
lea as all excellent source from which to draw
war supplies. Within the past six weeks
several large orders for improved rifles and
for vast supplies of ammunition have been
distributed among at least four manufactur-
ing companies by agents of China who re-
Gently arrived In this country. Ii is appar-
emily the desire of the Chinese government
to keep the matter quiet. The manufactur-
ers OF war materials here decline TO make
known the nature of their Chinese contracts
but 1t Is stated on good authority that about
5000 stand Of arms, which includes, besi,ie.
the mnsket. the bayonet, the Cartridge box.
and other accompaniments OF the gun, have
already been shipped, and that other large
orders are about ready for shipment.
The firms which have these contracts in
hand include a large establishment. in Hon.
\. T., another in Hartford, and another.
whose headquarters ar. in Broadway, New
York, The most of the arms and munitions
that are now on their way to China were
shipped by the overland route to San Fran
cisco. whence they will he forwarded as rap
IDLY As possible To Canton. The orders now
preparing also include large supply of fix
ed ammunition. One firm has, within the
past three weeks, shipped two thousand ca
ses of cartridges to China, and two firms
have large orders for ammunition that will
keep them busy for several months.
The arms and ammunition trade in thi,
eouatry is delighted at the impetus that the
patronage Of the Chinese government has
suddenly given to their industry. Since
hostllities between Peru and Chill practically
ceased, there has been great falling of in
the foreign demand for American munitions
Of war. The stagna,ion in the trade has not
been so great for years as it was last winter,
and one large firm failed. The trade does
not expect TO do much of any business with

The Boston Uerdid. in casting about
for Republican candidate, for President,
next year, hits on Gen. Grant and intimates
that his nomination then would be adrisa-
bic but for the fact that bis political affiiia-
tons have been chiefly with that wing OF the
party which follows the lead OF the "boss-
es." His nearest personal friends and sup
oorters were Conkling, Cameron, Logan and
their .msehine" followers. Were it not for
that fact Gen. Grant would be the strongest
candidate He is by far the most famous
living American. He is out of politics, in
the technical sense, and his views on some
important questions of public policy are
sound and wholesome. The questions on
which he stumbled have passed away. He
would not be Objectionable to Democrats.
He could be elected. The question to be
considered is whether he could be induced
to leave past differences behind and admin
lister the affairs of the government, especial
IL the patronage on the principles OF civil
service reform II he would. he might
bring about an ''era of good feeling under
which the old traditional party lines would

A telegram from Chicago says mass
meeting called for the avcwed purpose Of
rebuking the Pope for his interference in
political affairs in Ireland was attended BY
1900 people, Saturday The resolutions
adopted, while directed at His Holiness, did
not use his name, but some of the speakers
did. The resolutions, after recounting what
Parnell has done for Ireland. declared that
the best answer to his traducers, in whatever
quarter. would be found in swelling the fund
TO release his estate from debt. Alexander
Sullivan, president of the Irish National
League. declared that if the Pope attempted
TO prevent liberty in Ireland he would be
pushed aside by an indignant people. Con-
gresham Pinerty contended that England
would have no greater success in perpetuating
the slavery of Ireland by marching on Rome
than she could have by marching on Wash
