 Far East

Wei Hai Nei, Nov s.-All British warships here, the first class battleship Centuron, first class cruiser Narcissus, second class cruiser Hermione, torpedo boat destroyer Handy, and first class gunboat Peacock, have cleared for ae. ton and ready for sea at an hours notice. First class battleship yictori. ous and first class cruiser Undaunted, al the Foo, are coaling to their full capaci- ty. The greatest secrecy is maintained as to the meaning of these warlike prop. arations, but there is no doubt that important instructions. arc expected at any moment

entlfe show or refunding of their admission fee. Cleveland turned the money over to Mr Johnson to be held until a settlement was made be- tween him and the company. The balance of tue performance was given on the "half sheli'' order.
 The audience left in disgust. Mir. Johnson called a meeting of thecom- pany at the Windsor hotel to divide the receipts. Cleveland unexpected ly put in an appearance and draw ing a knife on Mir. Johnson com pelled him to hand over the money.
 After securing same Cleveland made for his room. The police were called and, after forcing Jan entrance into the room, found Cleveland plac- ing the money in the hands of a con- federate. The money was taken by the police iii company with Cleve- land, who Was placed under arrest.
 Cleveland secured his release and with a few others left for parts un- known. At last accounts Geo. Will son was the possessor of the two great simultaneous shows. The press was requested to state he had sent home for money and would con duct the show himself hereafter.
 Geo Wilson IS a well known min strel artist and why he should asso- ciate with an adventurer like tleve land we cannot explain.
 Cleveland has had his day and the public feels relieved that he has again been relegated to the shades of pr.- yate life.

THE VAUDEVILLE
At the Opera House Last Nighs Greeted
 by Large Crowd.

The grand vaudeville entertain ment given under the management of Mr. Frank Graham for the bene- fit of the Ladies Temple Society, at the opera house last evening, was greeted by large ard select audi ence.
 Each aud every member of this amateur company showed himself or herself to be an histronic artist Of more than ordinary ability, and, with no intention to draw invidious distinctions, it is but justice to the members to say that it is one of the best home talent organizations ever gotten up in this city.
 We will have to render an apology for the absence of the names of all tbe participants, as our space is very limited.
 Little Arthur Mehlinger is always looked forward to with great expec- tations and the audiences anticipa- tions were fulfilled last evening, as this boy wonder kept the house in a roar throughout the show.
 Mr. and Mrs. Graham, better known in theatrical circles as Frank and Grace, deserve much praise for their clever acting in their one-act comedy entitled, "A Soldiers Sweetheart.
 Last but not least we will have to-, and how could we possibly forget, to mention the coming comedian, Will Wilson Benton, who for his swift" acting last evening is receiving praise on all sides, and be'ore the performance was concluded the audience was fully aware that Will was on hand with abig init.
 The entertainment was pre-eml- nently success.

Russia Takes Advantage of Great Britt
 ain Being Involved With France.
 London Nov. 3.-A dispatch from Wei Hai Wei announcing that the war prerarations of the British naval author ities there is regarded here as being of grave importance, coupled with the An glo-Freneh war preparations. It is sur. missed that Russia, profiting by the present strained relations between Great Britain and France has decided to push forward her .clcims i'll the far east by forcibly seizirg a valuable treaty at Port Niu Chwang, which Great Britain can not permit, it is said.
 On Oct 20, Russian regiment occu- pied the town of Niu Chwang in the province of Leao Tong, also the forts at the mouth of the river Liaou on Oct. 15, thus securing complete possession of Niu Chwang The native troops fled without making any opposition, unders from the empress dowager and Ii Hung Chang. A British gunboat was in the river at the time It's resistance is regarded as virtual British abandon. m ent of the whole of Manchuria to the Russians and an invaluable stragetic position. Great Britain will certainly lose the Niu Chwang trade of which it had fully 50 per cent.

THE SITUATION AT SANTIAGO.

Q the American people, flushed with joy over | the destruction of the Spanish fleet at Santiago
 and sanguine of the speedy capture ot that city by the gallant army surrounding It, the letter from special correspondent, Richard Harding Davis, which publish this morning, will come like blow as astounding as clap of thunder from a clear sky.
 The blow, however, comes not from toe, nor from captous critic, but from friend n the warmth of earnest patriotism It is designed to arouse the American people from dangerous feeling of over confidence and to stimulate the authorities to prompt action to relieve the troops at Santiago from the conditions that now parayze their energies and bafhe their courage.
 The account given of the situation at the front by Mr. Davis is not one of vague and general criticism and fault finding. It is not the report of sensa- tional alarmist, of fatuous critic of the ad- minisraton trying to make political capital for the opposition in the coming campaign It is one of direct statements and specific charges. The ring of truth in the of every sentence and every word has evidently been carefully chosen to express the real condition of the situation It is letter to be studied and then acted upon without delay
 Our troops confronting a we'll armed, well fed and desperately vindctive foe, intrenched in strong works, without heavy artillery, without proper food, without tobacco almost as essential as
 
 rest from the alarm of ncessant attack from sharp shooters, without vigorous support from the fleet at the mouth of the harbor and worst of all perhaps without right leadership the part of the command ing general.
 These statements of nature to rouse the in- dgnation of the people It designed that they should do Better that the truth should be known now, however bitter it may be- than that the blunder ing should go at Santiago until some dire catas- trophe befas the army and inficts upon the nation the humiliation of defeat which neither patriotism valor selfsacrifce the part of the brave men at the front could avert
 Mir. Davis says: "The army needs artillery. It needs some one in command who is well strong and able to stand the hardshps of the campaign It needs endorsements. It needs mules for transports. It needs all these things now.'' Moreover Mr. Davis This is written for the sole purpose that the entire press of the country will unite force instant action at Washington to relieve the strained sua- tion"
 Now is the time for the people to speak and for the President to act Delay Is now out of the ques- tion "On to Santiago" is inperatively the war cry of the situation

THE WRECK OF THE BOURGOGNE.

n MOTHER direful catastrophe at sea has added / \ to the dread fame of Sable Island and given another warning against the excessive com petition in speed which induces Atlantic liners to fol- low the perilous northern because its compara tive shortness permits quicker voyage to be made across the In this disaster upward of Goo peo pie are reported to have perished, and among the number lost is every woman, with exception that was on board the ill-fated ship.
 Since the captain of the Bourgogne and his officers have gone down to death with their ship and their passengers there will be general disincnation to hold them guilty of blame in the accident. Neverthe- ess certain features of the disaster show that some thing was radically wrong in the management of the ship. Even respect for the maxim, Speak nothing except good of the dead will hardly withhold mems tongues from commenting with severity upon wreck caused by steamer rushing at full speed through fog-a wreck in which with fifteen minutes of time to get the eboats ready comparatively few of the passengers were saved and all the women aban- doned.
 It has been the custom of Atlantic liners to follow the northern short route across the ocean in winter and early spring because at those there comparatively few fogs and icebergs in the northern waters. As advances, however, the floating ice and the msts drift down from the Arctic, and then the sea around Sable Island is of the most dan gerous parts of the ocean. The time had about come for taking the southern route but the captain of the Bourgogne tried more the short route. He made his also at full speed and the result was that when sailing vessel loomed up before him in the fog it impossible for him to turn aside in time
 The deeper horror of the catastrophe, however, that which followed the collision. There seems to have been hardly pretense of discipline board the ship. Since the captain and his officers remained with the wreck and perished with 1t, there is pre- sumption that they did their duty as best they could but unable to check the rush of men for the boats and the cTowdng aside of the That they unable to maintain order is, however proof that the discipline board had long been lax in the extreme. The system therefore is as much to be condemned the captain.
 As rule all great catastrophes are illumned by incidents of heroism that to tighten the horror by proving the nobility of which human nature is capable In this case however, there seems nothing to relieve the dreadful aspects of the disaster It is all gloom all weakness, cowardce, worse.
The San Francisco call., 1898-07-07

Americans will take kindly to people who would prisoners subject the bodies of the dead to ndignity.
 Reports show that marines had to be sent ashore where the fleet of Cervera had been beached and armed guard Otherwise the Cubans would have butchered men who, according to all laws of warfare, safe by the protection of the white flags that futtered from the mastheads when the ships went down. The had been cast helpless and weapon less through the surf, and the Cubans would have turned the spot into shambles
 In the body of Spanish officer floating m the wreckage wantonly used as target, and the rfemen only dessted from the revolting when an American officer threatened to turn his guns upon them It does not appear that the United States fur nlshed the Cubans with ammunition so as to enable them to commit outrages or that 1t is taking prison the islanders may enjoy season of slaughter. Either the Cubans will adopt different tactics they will find that the force cooperating with them will be used to subdue them into at least imitation of being civilized
 In the Cuban army is creature named Honore Laine. If he is fair sample the army is an aggre- gation of bloody outcass entitled to no measure of sympathy, and the importance of crushing it is as much manifest as the necessity for driving out the Spanish Lane boasts of having cut off the heads of captured Spanish of having footed the pockets of corpses, and correspondent named Hearst glorihes the unspeakable deeds Lane is also yellow corre- spondent naturally braggart and liar but if crimes for which he should be hanged are to be heraded as heroic wonder the rank and file learn to revel in cruelty.
