Both Spaniards and Germans Made
Proposals Which He Declined.
London, July 14-The Hong Kong
correspondent of The Daily Mail says:
General Aguinaldo declares that both
the Spaniards and the Germans have
made overtures to him, though he de-
clines to divulge their import. United
States Consul Wildman asserts tina.
Admiral Dewey could compel the sur
render of Manila tomorrow if he liked.
He says his dispatches show that the
Germans continue to interfere, their
action causing much anxiety, as it is
said they are assisting the Spaniards
by landing flour and other supplies.
1.-THE Germans have not been care
full to observe the naval courtesies re-
quired by the situation. They nave
given Admiral Dewey much annoyance
by going against his regulations and by
insisting on sending their boats around
the bay after dark. At the same time
the German admiral CVon Diederichs)
informed Admiral Dewey that he has
no intention of giving of1iense to Amer
lea, and that his movements are not
to be construed as any demonstration
of ill will. Admiral Dewey is said to
have replied, Perhaps it would be bet
ter if matters were managed little
differently
1.-THE German ships have done and
are still doing rash and impertinent
things like the Irene incident. The
Americans hope the Spaniards will
continue their waste of ammunition in
fighting the rebels and then surrender

ANGL0-AMERICAN LEAGUE.


Meeting I'm London Attended by Many
Prominent Persons.
London, July 14.--The inaugural meet
ing of the Anglo-American league was
held last evening at Stafford House,
under the presidency of the Duke of
Sutherland, who was supported by Earl
Grey, the Earl of Jersey, Baron Far
rer, Baron Brassey, Baron Tennyson,
Baron Monkswall, Sir John Lubbock.
Rear Admiral Lord Charles Beresford
and Mr.. James Bryce. author of THE
American Commonwealth. Others
present were the Archbishop of Canter-
bury, the Archbishop of York, Cardinal
Vaughan and the Duke of Westmin-
lister.
The Duke of Sutherland, in opening
the proceedings, said the league was
quite apart from ordinary politics, its
object being to express the feeling of
cordially which existed between the
people of Great Britain and the United
States, an effort which he believed
would be appreciated and reciprocated
in America. On the motion of Lord
Brassey, the following resolution was
adopted:
Considering that the peoples of the
British empire and the United States
are closely allied by blood. inherit the
same literature and laws, hold the
same principles of self government,
recognize the same ideals of freedom
and humanity in the guidance of their
national policy, and are drawn together
by strong common interests in many
parts of the world, this meeting is of
the opinion that every effort should be
made in the interests of civilization and
peace to secure the most cordial and
constant cooperation on the part of
the two nations"

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
Our Government May Be Sounded by
Spain as to Terms.

Our Government May Be Sounded by
Spain as to Terms.
London. July 1.-THE Madrid CORE
spondent of The Times says: There
is a mysterious change in the political
atmosphere. The fresh breeze which
set in two or three days ago in the di-
rction of peace has for a moment sub
sided. The weather prophets tell us
that this is mere momentary lull,
but they do not explain on what their
prediction is founded.
fsThough some members of the cabi-
net may be giving in private conversa-
tion undue prominence to the anti
peace sentiment with view of sooth-
ing patriotic susceptibilities, it cannot
be supposed that an experienced poll
tician like Senior Sagasta or an able
diplomatist like Almodevar de Rio, the
foreign minister, who has displayed a
remarkable grasp of the situation as a
whole, would drop the substance for
the shadow. They have to decide what
will be the most propitious moment
and what the best technical means of
initiating peace negotiations.
ut is impossible to speak confidently
as to their views or intentions, both
men being naturally reticent. All that
can be stated with tolerable certainty
is that Senior Sagasta's great moral in
f1uence has re-established tranquility
in the cabinet. He is again firmly seat
ed on the box and has the team once
more so well in hand that the very
existence of ministerial crisis is de-
MED.
"Personages in close relations with
the ministers believe that as soon as
certain confidential communications
now passing between Madrid and Ha-
vana have terminated the United
States government will be sounded as
to what general conditions might be
taken as a basis for peace negotia-
tons"

campaien for Congress.

The Newark Sunday Call says: New
jersey will elect eight Congressman this
Fall. In the First District Congressman
Loudenslager will probably be re-nom-
mated, although James M. E. Hildreth of
Cape May is in the field against him, and
there is a strong faction opposed to Lou
denslager. The district is strongly Re-
publican. In the Second District, also Re-
publican, Congressman Gardiner will be
re-nominated. The Third District viii see
lively contest. Congressman Howell
will probably again be the Republican can
didate, but the district gave large Demo
cratic majority last Fall and is likely to
elect Democratic Congressman. In the
Fourth District, Congressman Pitney, Re-
publican, will prob 4bly not run again, and
the Democrats expect to carry the district
rather easily. In the Fifth District, Con-
gresham Stewart, Republican, expects
denomination, and will be elected if
nominated. William Barber, the rich
Paterson manufacturer, is, however, said to
be ambitious, and may get the nomination,
as he has a strong pull in both Bergen and
Passaic counties In the Sixth District,
Congressman Parker seems likely to get
the denomination. Last Fall the district,
comprising Newark aad East Orange, gave
a large Republican majority. In the
Seventh District, Hudson county, Con-
gresham McEwsn, Republican, will be
turned down by the bosses, and the Demo-
Gratis will have an easy victory. Congress-
man Fowler, Repu blican, in the Eighth
District Union county, city of Bayonne
city of Orange and townships of Essex
county, excepting East Grange). will
probably win again. The Democrats have
no Congressman now, and so are expected
to gain three, the Third, Fourth and
Seventh Districts. with chance for two

Rodman Bicycles, $40

Manufacturers find it no trouble
except to their consciences-to
produce wheels at whatever prices
shall prove tempting to buyers.
You alone decide.
1t is bit pulling, to be sure,
when the air is hazy with bargain
offerings. Pulling, and not.
You can skip the puzzle by reso-
Iutely stunning unknown wheels.
YOU can sa ely skip all the appar.
entity "doctored" wheels made
from congiomerate parts, or old
wheels reYamped. Safely skip, but
you can't safely buy.
Future seasons will find the air.
cleared. Il will be decided by you
the public-whether it shall be
"cheap" wheels or safe ones. The
answer could be guessed now.
As yet, surely safe and high,
grade wheels have not been made
to sell at today's prices. BUT SELL
ing goes on-at losS-while the
problem works out.
Selling present conditions, doing
our everyday best, is leading to
marvellous bicycle selling here.
The Rodman BICYCLES now sell.
ing here at $50 were made, with
every care and all mechanical adj
vantages, to sell at S35-to give a
$50 wheel at S35 by sheer mastery
of the business. Not one of them
has been put together since the
change in price-they are today, as
at the seasons start, FIFTY DOL
LARS WO2TH OF BlCYCLE-as the
trade even yet recllons values
and these wheels
Mems and woInen's are $40.
The selling of Rodmans will quit

MORE GERMAN INTERFERENCE.

On the Dispatch of Two United States
Cruisers to the Scene of Trouble the
German warship Slipped Away-Pro-
posaIs to AguinaIo.
Hong Kong, July 1.-THE insurgents
on Wednesday, July 6. reported that
the German gunboat Irene, in Subic
bay. refused to permit them TO attack
the Spaniards on Grande Island. Rear
Admiral Dewey promptly dispatched
the United States cruisers Raleigh and
Concord to investigate the matter. On
entering Subic bay the Raleigh opened
fire on the forts, whereupon the Irene
slipped her cable and steamed out by
the other channel. The result of the
fire of the American warship was that
the Spaniards, numbering over 500
men. surrendered everything. On re-
turning to Manila the Irene explained
that she interfered lin the cause of
humanity and offered to hand over
to the Americans the refugees she had
on board. Admiral Dewey, however,
declined to accept them.
The condition of Manila is said to be
terrible. 1t is hoped the town will
surrender without neeessitating a
bombardment, but the Spanish au-
thorities are obstinate and capitula-
ton is not likely. The whole .Ameri-
can expedition is expected here by
July 30.
Admiral Dewey, whose attitude has
been particularly humane and lenient,
has now declared a complete blockade.
Tuesday he sent away the British
steamer Esmeralda, which wished to
take passengers for Hong Kong.
Governor General August has issued
a proclamation promising to grant au-
tonomy to the islands and offering the
insurgents inducements to join the
Spanish forces. General Aguinaldo,
overtures of the Spanish commander
came too late.
The Americans and the insurgents
are acting independently, both con-
Quoting their own operations and hop
ing to evolve an agreement afterwards
The extent and duration of General
Aguinaldo's influence are uncertain
But 1t is certain that the Mohamme-
dams of the South Archipelago ignore
and the insurgents of the Island OF
Luzon and other regions are content
to use Aguinaldo until the Spaniards
are expelled, when there will be state
of chaos, unless strong force OF
Americans assumes control of the ISL
ands.
The Americans are postponing oper-
ations until they are fully prepared fol-
any contingency.
