There has been some idle talk I'm Eng
land about war with Russia over Chi
ma. 1t is senSeless because there is no
adequate cause for fighting Many
years ago England had war with
China, and obtained Hongkong, which
has been converted into center Of
trade and a naval station. RUSSIA
without war has secured in northern
China Port Arthur as Il naval station.
and Ta-lien-wan as Il port of entry for
the new Siberian Railway. Russia has
merely done what England had pre-
viously done. There can be no cause of
war. England. moreover. has asked
that these ports shall remain open to
shipping under all flags on equal terms
Russia has agreed that the ports of
Manchuria shall be free, or ut least
open to the worlds commerce. When
eign commerce will not be driven
away, but attracted Business inter
ests will prevail. If England were to
insist upon fighting for the sake Of
maintaining her prestige in the far
East, 1t would be an unequal battle on
both sea and land. The Russian fleet
might be destroyed in the Pacific. but
Manchuria could not be occupied and
conquered without land campaien. in
which the English would be ut a seri
Gus disadvantages. Russia. moreover
would have other means of haraSSing
oil Tel hn !,
tier of India Is exposed at many points,
and there are railways by which Rus
sian armies might be readily massed
within striking distance of Ierat or
Chitral. England has nothing 10 gain
and much to lose from war with Rus
STA. She would have no European ally
for conflict equally dangerous and
unprofitable. Equally unlikely is war
between England and either Germany
or France over the possession Of naval
stations and ports on the Chinese sea
board SO long as Iiongkong is retained
by England, she cannot reasonably OBJ
1ect to the occupation of other ports for
similar purposes by rival powers: nor
will there be just cause of war so long
as those new ports remain open to all
foreign flags. But as an offset to the
acquisition of Port Arthur by Russia.
England demanded AMI has secured
Wei-hai-wei. which win enable her TO
check Russia should occasion arise.
The British Government was thus com
PEELED to adopt policy which it has
been strenuously resisting. although it
first set the example. The Chinese
Government is SO weak and helpless
that England canot help to protect it
single-hande1 against foreign aggrcs-
sion. China Is not In position to &C
cept such a protectorate. 1t is clear
that Russia. France AMI Germany will
not allow her to become dependent
upon England. Whatever happens.
American interests are not likely to
suffer. The policy of open ports for the
shipping of all nations is now advocat
ed by all these rival powers.

Monterey Ordered to
Sail for the Phil
ippines.
SEAGOING QUALITIES GOOD
Monitor Wit Greatly Strengthen inc
Asintic Squadron - Small bunker
Room May MIKE 1t Necessary f"f "
Coilier to Accompany Her.

Washington, May 24.-The news
event OF the day at the navy depart
ment was the order to the Monterey TO
proceed to Manila TO reinforce ADJ
miral Dewey's squadron. The Mon
tcrcy is a tower of strength in herself,
md her addition to Admiral Dewey's
force, together with the dispatch OF
thousands of troops to Manila. is ample
evidence that the administration has
assumed no half-hearted attitude to-
ward the Philippine question, ana 10
determined to take no chance of dlspos-
session until such time as the United
States itself has arranged for the dispo-
sition of the islands
The Monterey is probably the most
formidable monitor in the world, yet
she combines with the enormous o1fen'
sive and defensive qualities OF monl-
tor a seaworthiness that is almost phe-
nomenal The Monterey is described
technically 8s barbette-turret, low
freeboard monitor OF 1000 tons dis
placement. She is 1856 feet long by SO
feet beam, and IA feet inches deep.
She carries in two turrets, surrounded
by barbettes. two l2-inch and two ~
inch guns, while in her superstructure
between the turrets are mounted six o.
FOUNDERS. four l-pounders and two gat-
lings. The turrets are ~ and =
inches thick, and the surrounding bar
bettes are ii inches and Il inches
thick, and against the arlnor all the
batteries in Manila might thunder
away without effecting an entrance.
The Monterey's personnel is 10
officers and 172 men, and once she is
in the entrance of Manila harbor, moth.
ing in the shape of navy would be
likely to bulge her from her position.
Her dispatch may have an important
bearing upon the intention of the Span
ish government, SO openly published,
of sending reinforcements to Manila.
The only doubt as to the feasibility
Of sending the Monterey is her small
coal capacity. She has bunker room
for only 200 tons Of coal, and, though
more might DC stored on ner ucCkS, IL is
doubtful whether she could, at the
most, carry more than enough coal to
take her to Honolulu, one-third of the
way to the Philippines. 1t is prob
able that the Monterey will 90 in con-
voy, and, after exhausting the coal that
she will take on in Honolulu, she must
either be tOwed about 1900 miles of
he, trip, or perform the difficult opera
ton OF coaling at sea.

ONE TRANSPORT GONE.
The Steamer Florida Carries Volunteers
to Cuba.

Chicago, May PA special from
Macon, Ga, says: Unless some acct
dent has befalen the United States
transport Florida. there are now many
volunteer troops on the island Of Cuba,
or they will be there within a few
hours. From accurate information Oh.
tanned here, today, it can be stated as a
fact that the first expedition toward
Cuban soil has started, and the outlook
is for successful trip.
Wednesday the United States trans.
port Florida left Port Tampa, with sew.
eral hundred volunteer troops on board.
The passengers belonged to the regi-
ment OF Cuban volunteers organized in
the lower extremity of Florida some
weeks ago. 1t was thought best to
send these men, as they speak Spanish
and are more acquainted with the top
ography of the country which it is pro.
posed to invade. 1t cannot be learned
what United States officers accom-.
panied the regiment of volunteers. If
this expedition is success, other
troops will be rushed into the island as
soon as possible.

\ French engineer who has been on
tour of inspection was not impressed

shall report to my government" says
he. that the biggest things In America
are the little things. The French pco-
pie are experts In domestic economy,

average families In the United States
throw away. But Americans are, on
the other hand. experts in industrial
economy. They make money by say
ing wastagc in business. and lose some
of 1t by wastage In domestic economy.
The attention paid to small details In
big works is amazing to me. l visited

Of materials and labor by close atten-

that it automatically grinds all the
tools for 800 high-priced mechanics,
and it only works a few hours each
day. The skilled mechanics In our
country frequently stop their regular
work to grind their own tools. and then
Go 1t only imperfectly. In the United
States tools are all accurately ground
to the best shape by the machine. so
that the men can do more and better
work on this account in given time. l

Establishments and the leviathan ma

England and ,Japnn.

London, May 24.-The Vienna cor.
respondent of the Daily Telegraph says:
Confirmation is given in well-informed
quarters to the rumor that the friendly
advances made by England to Japan
have already attained tangible result.
1t is believed that an Anglo-Japanese
understanding has been reached, which
not only comprehends all eventualities
which can occur in the East, but also
comtemplates all the consequences that
might result in the course of the His
pano-American war. The understand.
ing establishes a sort of Asiatic balance
