Germany has been briefly but effectually
called down 10y Russia. and VIII have 10
surrender kiaO Chou and the territ lry sur
rounding it. But as a concession for this
back down Germany is To have the inlet 1f
SanrSah, in the province of Fo-Kien, OPP
positc the Island of Formosa. II all this
bttiue, Il nd there is not any apparent rea son
for doubling il. there will be much bad
language ard spluttering in the Partisan
press; because France has considered this
very st;'tion Of Sam-Sah as her particular
meat and has intended to use it as base
corporations in an early movement against
Japai in FormoSa. The deal breaks up the
Who'll. previous organization OF the board.
1t satisfies German chagrin at the expense
of Fra nce, and it will not please the latter
rathe: apparent. One is that French conf
denc. ia the benefits of the Franco Rus
sian alliance win be badly shattered, and
the other is that it looks very much rs IL
the Gar had come to lie the dictator of
Europe. AS to that view of the case, we
have nothing TO complain of. Russia al
ways has been our firm friend in time of
trouble. aud if there is to he n paramount
pnwer in the old world. as far as We are
concerned, II would be much better to see
Russia in the position than any other.

An intelligence officer of one of the
European armies who has been spending n
year ''incognito'' in Cuba, has written some
interesting facts to a professiona acquaint-
ance in this city. He states that o the esti-
mated population of 100000 people in
Cuba year ago, 600 900 have diedjof star
walton since January last, and not less nan
100000 more probably Will perish before
Gomez Can drive the Spaniards from the
country. Heplao es the maximum o fBa nco S
force at 10000 men of all arms. Nea .ly
two-thirds of them are requiredfOr ga rrison
duty or are employed in protecting rail-
way lines, and in convoy service. The
Cuban force is much smaller, il only
thoroughly armed and equipped troops
are counted. OF these there are 800 in
Pinar del Rio, $500 in Matanzas, 2,5OO
in Havana tprovince), ZOO in Santa Clara,
and 0,0o0 in Santiago de Cuba and p ierto
Principe. Gomez also has about 10000
half.armed men. The European officer in
i'm question thinks that the final triumph
OF the patriots is only matter OF fex

General satisfaction is being expressed

to wed oct"rcna riaii veterans with malice

soldiers widows for the remainder OF
their natwa. lives, large proportion of
which i'll extend into the second half
OF the next century. Mr.. Allen called
with 976,00o names on the pension list.
there are 100000 cases awaiting action.
Senator Gailinger, also, sounded nota
of alarm on tie widow issue. lie observed,
and no coubt with sound sense, that the
law should lie so amended that a widow
would b, barred from pension il sire

the law under which lie drew his. II is
very satisfactory to think that the abuses
of the system as now conducted are to
be looked into. Report OF the bill to ap-

A very bed impression will be- created by
new evidence of a need for reform in some
A rmy methods. When Capt. Lowering was
court-nartialed for inhunan brutality to
an enlisted man at Sheridan Barracks, Chi
cago, he was sentenced TO a reprimand
which Secretary Alger issued, remarking
at the sfu.e time that it was IN outrage
that the court did not impose 4 heavier
sentence. The order containing the repri-
Inand was sent iii due course To the post
where Lowering is serving, aud his com
manding crficrr filed it and sent a copy
To the reprrnanded officer. That was
practical suppression, which, when the
War department heard OF it, made the
higher officials very angry. A new order
has been issued requiring that the repri-
mand Shall BE- publicly read at dress pa
