The National Society OF New England wo-
men at New York has arranged TO pniid
residence in Washington for General Nelson

tion of a New England boy. In this proJect

glAud boy-a clerk in a grocers store-to the
head Of the United States Army. He is the
first New England man TO hold the position.
We have marked with new pride every step
Of his military career from his promotion

feel the same pride in him, but we know that
we shall receive hearty encouragement from

New YORK, March l3.-Tho true cause
of Ballington Booths resignation, accord
ing to a local paper, has just leaked out.
The sale OF The War Cry in this country
was sanctioned by General Booth, who
agreed TO 10 per cent OF the sales being set
apart for a fund for disabled and super
annuated soldiers. 1t Vas with this agree
mcnt and understanding that the paper
was sold in this country. This fund now
amounts to probably $500 or $4,000.
Some time ago, IL is claimed. General
Booth sent for this money, which he in
tended using for army purposes In London
and other places In England, thus divert
ing IL from It's original purposes. Bal
lington Booth refused To- acccdc to this de
mand, and said the fund was for the
American army superannuated soldiers
and not for the extension Of the army In
England. Immediately on top OF this
BallinRton Booths removal was ordered,
which led TO his resignation.

waters and the fresh were struggling

The waters were now boiling with
volcanic violence; the air above was

that could see the scaly glitter of the
frightened fishes as they sped away on
every side, and the black Shiny shapes
of nameless monsters struggling in the
scalding liquid.
o God of mercyl what would be

the suspense was more than death.
Was there indeed God of power TO

TALKS OF WAR.
Lead to Pertinent Questions Thereon
IN the House of Commons.
AMERICA, ENGLAND AND SPAIN
Interested In the Topics Under
Discussion.

LONDON, March 18-The under secre-
tary for the war Office, st. John Brodrick,
answering an inquiry yesterday in the
house of commons, said the war office had
no news of any English militia officers
having volunteered their services to Spain
An case of war with the United states if.it
occurred He added that any officers TAX
Ing such step would be liable TO the PEN
alties of the foreign enlistment act.
r. G. Bowles (Con.) asked the gov
ernmont If notice had been taken OF the
statements in the Spanish press that in
the event of war between Spain and the
United States, Spanish privateers would
prey upon American commerce, ana
whether In view OF the complications ana
injuries British trade would suffer from
such an event, or in case of war between
Great Britain and a country which had
not acceded to the declaration OF Paris,
the government would consider the whole
effects of the declaration of Paris and the
advisability of Great Britain withdrawing
therefrom.
First Lord OF the Treasury Balfour, In
reply, said that the government does not
question Spain's right in the matter, but,
IN view of the fact that no privateers have
been used in any war since 1856, even by
the powers not acceding to the declara-
tion of Paris. and that as the doctrine
that neutral flag covers enemies goods,
except contraband Of war, has been gem
orally accepted during recent years, 1t
may be doubted II Spain would actually
resort to such measures.
Regarding the latter part OF Mr.. Bowles'
question, Mr.. Balfour said that while
fully admitting the eventuality mentioned
might have an important bearing upon
the neutral countries, he did not think
anything would be gained by an express
sion Of opinion upsD the part Of the gov
ernment ON hypothecal case.
This answer, however, did not suit Mr..
Bowles, and he pressed Mr. Balfour for a
etill more explicit reply, whereupon Mr..
Balfour said that an expression OF opin-
Ion at the present moment might be mex
pedient. He had consulted with the adj
miralty and his colleagues on the subject,
and believed he was correct in saying
there had been a general acceptance by
all the powers, though not as formal
treaty, that neutr:l flag covers enemies
goods, except contraband OF war.

admitted that be had yielded to rash inn

the disastrous defeat at Adowa. He also
admitted that he had no direct orders
from the government. He knew nothing
of General Baldissera's coming at the
time, and was influenced solely by the
difficulties OF revictualling, which would
have compelled retreat and have opened
the road to the Shoans. All of the gen.
erals, he said, were confident that even a
partial victory would put an end to an un-
tennble position and cause the Shoans to
withdraw. He deeply deplored the disas-
ter, but had nothing TO reproach himself
with, and was ready TO meet any charges
