DEWEY'S WARNING.
Report That He Has Warned Gre
mans of impending War.

Vancouver, B. C, Aug. IA Manila
letter dated July 10. brought here by the
steamer Empress of Japan today, is as
follows:
There is great friction here between
Americans and Germans. The latter are
helping the Spaniards in the most open
manner
Dewey has told them that if this con-
tinues there will be war between the two
nations.
1--WE have come to the conclusion that
the Germans do not want to help Spain,
a they cannot afford to. They have not
a sufficiently strong navy They wish
merely to obtain a few pickings after it
is all over here.
"Spaniards looked upon them a the be-
ginning as their deliverers, but their opin-
ion is changing and Germany is now very
UNPOPULAR at this place"
