BRITAIN TO TAKE A HAND.

A Fleet of Twenty Big Men-of-War
Arrives at Port Hamilton.
London, Dec. 29.-The Globe says .
private telegram reached London an
nouncing that over 20 British war ships
have arrived at Port Hamilton.
Port Hamilton is a small island south
of Corea and not far from the Quelpart
island.
London, Dec. 29.-A special dispatch
from Shanghai says the British ieet
has anchored at Port Hamilton. The
dispatch further says that a report IL
current at Chez Foo to the effect that
the japanese fleet has also arrived at
Port Hamilton.
London, Dec. ga special dispatch
from Shanghai says: 1t is reported that
a japanese fleet of 20 war ships is watt
ing near Goto island, outside Nagasaki,
fully equipped for wal and only await
ing instructions. This includes the
iashima and the Full, two Of the finest
vessels in the japanese navy, and the
Chen Iuen, that vas captured from
China. The Japanese fleet, it is under
stood, is acting in close touch with the
British squadron under Vice Admiral
Sir Alexander Butler, commander in
chief on the China station. Japan will
certainly oppose a permanent Russian
occupation of Port Arthur. The sudden
dissolution of the japanese diet was
owing to the war spirit. 1t is expected
that the japanese fleet will attempt to
prevent the landing of reinforcements
from Odessa for the protection of the
Russian Trans-Asiatic railway In Man
churia.
A dispatch to the Times from Kobe,
Japan, says the dissolution of the diet
has greatly angered the political par
ties. 1t is probable that Marquis Ito.
former premier, and Count Okuma, a
former foreign minister, will form a
coalition ministry, with a vigorous for
eign policy. The military party is
eager for action, extraordinary activity
prevails at the military and naval depofx
and war ships are assembling at Ma
gasaki.

substitute offered by Mr. Baily to

provided for raising revenue by

THE hated bondholder, who
has been the target at which
Democrats and Populists have
been hurting their epithets for a
long time, must now congratu-
late himself that 100000 new
bondholders have been added to
the list, so that in the future the
Democrat who attempts to ex-
haust the English vocabulary in
abusing these people, must
remember that it will require
increased energy on his part by
reason of increased number OF
hondholders.

IT is estimated that the war is
costing about 81, 900, 900 per day
and must necessarily increase
as active operation are pushed
forward. The plan of the Re
publican Party for providing for
this enormous expense is being
everywhere endorsed as the best
and wisest that could have been
adopted; namely. the increasing
OF the internal revenue taxes and
the issuing of bonds at a low
rate OF interest; all of which was
opposed by the Democratic
party. as shown by the almost
solid vote against the bill when
II was considered and passed.
