WASHINGTON, Oct 2a--Miuister Sackviile
has not yet been recalled. and the
chances are that he will not be. The
United States has not demard rded his recall, In
spite Of all assertions and intimatious to tho
contrary. The only thing that has been done
by this government has been the transmittal Of
all the papers bearing upon the case to Minister
Phelps, without any instructions whatever. The
situation 10 q peculiar one. The British govern
ment and the United States government are on
friendly terms and the commercial relations be-
tween Great Britain and the United States are
greater than between any other two
nations in the world. The United States
can scarcely afford now. as some
time has elapsed since the incident. to insist
upon the immediate recall Of the obnoxious
minister, nor csc England psremptorily dismiss
from her diplomatic service man who has faith
fully served the interests of the country which
he now represents for upwards OF forty yeara
Absolutely nothing can be learned here, as the
President declines to see interviewsrs on the
