NAPOLEON'S MASTERPIECE.
The italian Campaign Showed His Great
est Military Genius.

The italian Campaign Showed His Great
est Military Genius.
In later years Napoleon himself be-
lieved. and subsequent criticism has
confirmed his opinion, that the Italian
campaign, taken as a whole, was his
greatest. The reception of a system,
social, political or military, is always
gigantic task. 1t was nothing less
than this which Bonaparte had
wrought, not in one, but in all three
spheres, during the summer and
autumn of 1896. The changes, like
those of most revolutions, were changes
of emphasis and degree in the applica-
ton of principles already OWNED.
divide and conquer" was an old
maxim; it was a novelty to see it ap-
piled in warfare and politics as Bona
parte applied it in Italy.
1t has been remarked that the essen
tial difference between Napoleon and
Frederick the Great was that the lat
ter had not ten thousand men a month
to kill. The notion that war should
be short and terrible had, indeed, been
clear to the great Prussian; Carnot and
the times afforded the opportunity for
its conclusive demonstration by the
genius of the greater Corsican. Con-
centration of besiegers to breach the
walls of town was nothing new; but
the triumphant application of the same
principal to an opposing line of troops,
though well known to Julius Cesar,
had been forgotten, and its revival was
Napoleon's masterpiece.
The martinets of the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries had so exag-
gerated the formalities of war that the
relation of armies to the fighting
ground had been little studied and
well-nigh forgotten; the use of the
map and the compass, the study of re-
liefs and profiles in topography, pro-
duced in BOnaparte's hands results
that seemed to duller minds nothing
short of miraculous. One of these was
to oppose the old-school rigid forma-
ton of troops by any formation more
or less open and irregular according to
circumstances, but always the kind
best suited to the character of the re-
gion chosen for conflict.
The first two days at Arcole were
the triumphant vindication of this con-
cept.
Finally there was fascination for
the French soldiers in the primitive
savagery of their general, which,
though partly concealed, and some
what held in by training, nevertheless
was willing to devote the spoils of
their conquests to making the men
themselves opulent; which scorned the
limitations of human powers in him
self and them, and thus accomplished
feats of strength and stratagem which
gratifed to safety that love for the
uncommon, the ideal, and the great,
which is inherent in the spirit of their
nation. In the successful combination
and evolution of all these elements
there was a grandeur which Bona
parte and every soldier of his army APP
preciated at its full value.-Prof.
Sloane, in Century.

TO ADJUST CLAIMS.
The Commission to Settle Behring Sea Diff
ferences Will Meet In October.

WASHINGTON, May l4.-An arrange
ment has been effected between the
United States and Great Britain in
which October is set as the time for
the assembling at Washington of
commission to negotiate a treaty as
to claims of sealers on account of
Behring sea seizures. Delegates will
come from Canada to meet the authori-
ties here. The report coming from
Victoria that the British government
had vacated the sealing regulations
because of the non-payment by the
United States of s425, 200 claimed for
seizures is said to be- due to misappre-
hension. In view OF the fact that The
commission will meet in October to
consider these seizures, there should
be, it is stated, no present ground of
complaint for non-payment.

THE INCOME TAX.
It Is Stated the Supreme Court III
Reached a Decision UNFOLDING the Law

1t Is Stated the Supreme Court Has
Reached a Decision Upholding the Law.
WASHINGTON, May 14-It was learned
definitely that a conclusion was
reached at Saturdays consultation of
the supreme court, and that it is con-
fidently expected to have the opinion
in the case ready for announcement
next Monday. No authoritative state
ment as to what the decision is can be
secureds of course, but all that can be
learned goes to corroborate the report
that the indications favor the uphold
ing of the law on the points that re-
main.
1t was rumored at the consultation
of the Justices Saturday Justice Jack
son voted with Justices Brown, White,
Harlan and Shiras to sustain the con-
stitutionalitv of the income tax law,
and the vote to be announced next
Monday will stand to ? in favor of
the law.
A member of the court is responsible
for the statement that there will prob
ably be two opinions, and W lille he did
not go to the extent of indicating on
which side the majority would be. he
said a member of the majority would
write the opinion on that side. which
would be the opinion of the court,
while some member of the minority
would express the opinion on the other
side. and there would probably be no
independent, individual opinions as be-
fore.
The present intention is to make the
opinion comparatively brief. They
will cover only the questions left I'M
decided in the first decision, as to
whether the void provisions cover the
whole act; whether the act as it affects
incomes from personal property as
such are unconstitutional because it
provides for direct taxation of them,
and whether the tax is invalid on
account of want of uniformity. The
understanding is now that Justice Har-
Ian will prepare the majority opinion
sustaining the law. The court at the
same time will render opinions on a
large number of other cases which
have been argued. Adjournment for
the summer will not be reached, how
ever. until the following Monday, the
