SPAIN AND JAPAN.

The report from London that Spain and
Japan had for med an alliance against
the United States is notcredited in Wash
ington. This is not because there Is any
doubt that this government has increased
the ill-will of these two countries, but be-
cause the situation has not developed far
enough to make such an alliance proba-
BILE. Moreover it Is not sbelleved that
Japan would burden herself with such an
alliance, as it is the general opinion that
by uniting with Spain in confict.with
this country Japan would be weakened
instead of receiving any substantial sup
port. The latter country is, however,
ready to do anything practicable to pre-
vent the annexation of Hawaii to the
United States, and it seems to be gener-
ally admitted that dilatory policy on
the part of this government in this mat
is thought tina. the London dispatches
are inspired by spirit of resentment at
the Boring Sea correspondence and that
they are sort of reminder to this coun-
try that we may be menaced by other
countries, and therefore cannot afford 10
be otherwise than amenable toward Great
Britain. 1t is regarded as in the nature
of notice that we had better..approach
the Boring Sea question in spirit of ac-
commodation; but as to.the immediate re-
suit, it is likely that hluster of this sort
will hasten action on the Hawaiian
treaty. IT. it should appear that Japan
really has any intention of attempting to
take possession of Hawaii or of melting a
revolt against the government on the
islands their formal annexation will he
promptly effected by this country.

THE DOG MUSTANGS.

To the Editor of The Fitness"
No dogs allowed in here" This is
posted in a conspicuous position in the
market house.. but the dogs .seem to pay
no attention whatever to said notice and
congregate in great numbers throughout
the market square, much to the annoy
ance of people who have business there.
Only yesterday morning "a lady who was
just recovering from severe attack of
neuralgia and it's accompanying nervous
prostration, was startled by two huge
dogs bouncing against her in their efforts
to master each other. Not long since
one of the men selling on the market had
several dozen of eggs .broken:by the same
kind of performance.
Scarcely u day passes that one or more
dog fights do nol occur on the market Is
there no law to prohibit this dog nui-
sance, or is it simply not enforcedy 1t is

pretensions, much less city claiming

The fact that Prince Takeheito has
been sent as ambassador extraordinary to
the court of Spain to invest King Alfonso
with the Japanese imperial order of the
crysanthemum, is watched with peculiar
interest by the American Government,
especially as rumors Of an offensive and
defensive alliance between those two coun-
tries is reported from London. If, how
ever, it should prove true that Spain is
ready to declare war against the United
States, she will discover that such u
course will be the surest and speediest
way of losing the island of Cuba; while
Japan would soon find out her mistake
If she attempted by force to prevent the
annexation of Hawaii to the United
States. In other words such conflict
would only hasten the acquisition of
Cuba and Hawaii by the United States,
towards which the manifest destiny of
this country has been pointing for many
years

FEAR OF A LABOR RIOT.
Workshops in Valparaiso, Chilli, Closed by
Mayor


Valparaiso, Chill, July 17.-There is n
general feai here that repetition of the
bloody labor riots of 1896, when scores
of rioters were shot down by the police and
militia, is at hand. The situation is
critical. 1t was brought about by the
action of the mayor of Valparaiso in or
dering Que Thousand workshops closed,
thereby throwing thousands of men out
of employemnt.
Unless something is done immed lately
to provide for the idle serious trouble will
result. ~
The authorities only quelled the riots
of 1890 after a great loss of life. The
rioters at that time looted scores of stores
to obtain food and clothing, and the re-
suit was. that the police and militia were
called out to put an end to the trouble.
Scores of idle men were shot down and
cut down in the streets.

Brazil has been divided by internal trou-
