WASHINGTON, Jan. @.-Secretary Blaine
was asked by a representative OF the Asso-
ciated Press If the department. had learned
the cause OF the war excitement a fort
night since in London. He replied that no
had Just received n copy OF the London
Times of Jan. 6. in which he found a dis
patch from it's regular American CORES
pendent. dated Philadelphia, Jan. s, as fol-
lows: NAVAL orders recently issued indi-
cate the gathering Of a formidable Ameri-
can fleet in the Pacific waters before the
Bering sea fishing senson opens. Eleven
war ships and FIVE revenue cutters arc nov.
or soon will be. there, having ninety guns
and 1926 men. Seven other steam
ers, IL Ia rumored, will be char
tered for revenue duty, increasing the
feet to twenty-three ships, with liz guns
and 5000 men, including two Of the fastest
and most powerful Of the new cruisers, the
san Francisco and tho Charleston. Blaine
said that on receiving this unfounded and
mischievous telegram he sent to tho navy
department and was informed by Secretary
Tracy that there had been a smaller naval
force on the Pacific than at any time the
last three years. The whole number OF
ships is five. the uns are t~hirty-one, and
the number of men $50. Mr.. Blaine added
that he thought the correspondent OF the
Times owed an explanation to the Ameri-
can people. There was no excuse whatever
for transmitting such erroneous statements
to Europe.

A large owl was attracted by the light of
a lamp in the place and few in over the

Suddenly the girl screamed and fell in

rushed in and were terrified to find the
snake wound around one of the legs Of the
girl. ALI drew back in horror except a

Ehe nrisish 9ovesnor OF NfanicaIand
Tired of Portssuese Aggressiona.
LoNDoN, April A.--It is believed here
that hostile encounter has taken place
between the Portuguese and the British
South African company in Manicaland.
The latest dispatches from the cape
represented the company as obstinately
holding to every point of advance and
prepared to repulse the Portuguese by
force. Further information is anxiously
awaited, although no apprehension is
felt as to the result for the company.
Meantime it is apparent from the LIS
bon dispatches that the better class of
Portuguese, who have something to lose
by war, are frightened, and that por-
ton of the press is less furious on being
brought face to face with the limits Of
highlands patience. But there is no
doubt that the lingo party still directs
the African policy Of Portugal and is
prepared to go to even greater extremes.
The English government tired of fruit
less and treacherous negotiations, ia able
to take decisive action, which the Por-
tugese can accept as an act of war If
they see fit,
