covered judgment for $4,000 and the
case went up on appeal. Later on there
was compromise and the sum of $2,50O
was paid into court. At this point the at

GERMAN BLUFF
They Attempt to Land Pro>
visions at Manila.
DEWEY CALLS THEM DOWN
WITH HIS GUNS.
TIL GERMAN BLUFF.


Washington. May 24.-Advices have
been received from Manila that a Ger
man ship reached there yesterday loaded
with provisions for the Spanish. A shot
was fired across her bows and she hove
to. The ships was boarded by the L. S.
officers and the German officers were
indignant at the delay and announced
that they would land the provisions and
protect the operation with two war
ships. Dewey replied that he would
blow the war ships out of the water the
moment the attempt was made. The
Germans decided not to land the pro-
visions.
Dewey's stand is backed up by the
Washington authorities, as the landing
of provisions by any foreign vessel is a
clear violation Of international law and
it is not likely that Germany will back
up the claim for a moment.
DOES WANT WAR.
Washington, May 24.-There is an I'M
easy feeling here over the incident at
Manila. 1t is held by some that Ger
many has made a secret alliance with
Spain and that their attempt to land pro-
visions was purposely done to furnish an
excuse for open hostilities. Should Ger
many be brought into the struggle other
European nations will be drawn in.
UNEAsINEss IN ENGLAND.
New York, May 24.-The stopping of a
German ship at Manila has caused great
uneasiness in England and Germany.
Jared that the threat Of Dewey to
blow the German ships out of the water
if they assisted in the landing of provi-
sionS, will cause the Emperor of Ger
many, who is headstrong and nman
ageable, to insist on war. Germany has
a navy that the Emperor is anxious to see
tried out in action. The London and
German papers in discussing the Incl
dent are very conservative in tone and
handle the matter very carefully.
