THEY LIKE BAYARD.
London Times Afraid the Ambassa
dor May Resign.

London, Oct 1S.-In a leader this
morning, the Times says that "the only
regretable point in Ambassador Bay
ards cordial and sympathetic refer
ences to England is that they appear
to have something of valedictory
air. If he cares to have a senatorship,
it will doubtless be bestowed, for his
state is justly proud of him. His resig-
nation of the ambassadorship would
be the more regretted, because he is
not only actuated by the kindly feel
ing towards what Americans, we hope,
mother country, but has brought in
sight as well as sympathy the study
of our national character and institu-
tionS"

cadets go through their maneuvers. At
the city of Han Yang l inspected gun
factory, where they were making small
arms, and at Marking L saw vast powder
works and the smoke stacks of an arsenal
covering many acres. Here at Tien-Tsin, Lii
Hung Chang has between fifty and one
hundred acres of buildings, in which the
finest of modern guns are being made. He
has schools for the education of officers for
his army and navy, and nearly every one of
the great yiceroys of the empire has his
own military establishment. There is big
navy yard at Foo Chow below Shanghai
where the Chinese are making torpedo boats
and modern vessels OF war. This is on the
Min river, and they have been building
boats here for ten years of all sorts and
sizes. l have seen some of the cruisers
turned out at these yards, and they are
equal to the same class of boats you will
find in Europe and America. They make
also armor plate and big guns. and. though
they are now importing their steel in the
shape of ingots, they are putting in such
machinery as will enable them to make their
own steel with their own iron, and they ex-
pect to place themselves on an entirely in
dependent basis.
Here at Tie1-Tsin is the best place to
make study of the Chinese n lvy Ii Hung
Chang, the famous viceroy, is its head and
Lo Feng Luh, his naval secretary, has his
headquarters here. Mr.. Lo Feng Luh is one
OF the most accomplished men in China. He
speaks English and German as well as he
does Chinese, and he is as well posted on
Tue uoCtrineS OF f1uXley ana Darwin as he is
in the philosophy Of Confucius and Mencius
He knows all about the great navies of the
world and he adopts everything new in
naval warfare as soon as ii is invented 1
am under many obligations to him for ia
vors during my stay at Tien-Tsin, and some
OF the best of my information comes from
his headquarters. The chief feet in the navy
Is the north coast squadron, which is di-
rectly under him and which Is, perhaps, as
fine a squadron as you will find outside of
the greatest European forces. 1t consists
OF four batbette seagoing armorcIads, one
OF which is 300 tons in size, and two
others of which are more than 1900 tons
each. 1t has a number of deck-protected
cruisers, a torpedo flotiila and eleven gun
boats. The Foo Chow squadron has a num-
Der of fine boats. and in addition to these
are the Shanghai fiotilla and the Canton
fotiila. These are under the viceroy at
Canton, and the Foo Chow squadron is
think, under the viceroy of Marking. Two
of Lii Hung Chang's armorclads have a
speed of fifteen knots an hour and they are
armed with four tweye inch Krupp guns
These ships have Hotchkiss cannon and
tubes for Whitehead torpedoes, and they are
of the best workmanship the Germans can

There is a splendid flow from each. The

the bottom of the pipe, past several valves
and fully forty feet above the ground.
Mr.. Newell intends to sink enough wells to
cradle him to irrigate his entire farm of $40
acres with warm water. He will make a
speciality of early vegetables, which, with
the hot water, can be raised several weeks
in advance of those produced by cold water
irrigation. Mr.. Newell is now using horse

One thing which strikes me in the great
gun works of China, which I visited, is
the fact that they make everything without
regard to patent rights or patent law. There
is nothing of this kind in China, and they

any invention they can put their hands on

II Is now kilograms have to be sent in the

themselves could be sent and it would be
OF immense value to China. The viceroy
to whom the man applied. said he would
probably Introduce the invention, but he
would first like to have one OF the machines
