Germany Looking for Trouble,

LONDON, May ia story is pub
lished here to the effect that Germany
is preparing to signify her disapproval
of a lasting occupation of the Philip
pine Islands by the United States. The
German Consul at Manila is said to
have been instructed to make repre-
sensations to Rear Admiral Dewey
differing materially in character from
those of representatives of other
powers.
Very heavy claims, it is said, are
being encouraged upon the part of
Germans who have suffered from the
bombardment of Cavite, and Ger
many, it is further asserted, proposes
to obtain control of the Philippine
Islands, guaranteeing the payment of
Spain's indemnity. 1t is believed this
plan is acceptable to Emperor Francis
Joseph, of Austria, and it is under
stood to have been passively accepted
by France, which country Is strongly
interested, financially, in the rehabili-
tation of Spain.

THE CAPE VERDE SQUADRON.

LONDON, May ia courier from
our staff correspondent al Cadiz has
just crossed the French frontier and
telegraphed me that part of the Span
ish feet which sailed from Cape De
We're is still at the Canary Islands,
where it will await the feet now as
sembIing at Cadiz.
The two %squadrons having united
will, he further says, make an impor-
tant move, probably for Porto Rico,
but he has been unable to learn with
any certainty the point of attack.
The Cadiz correspondent is a thor
oughIy reliable man, who would lay
down his life in the performance of
of his duty. He has been able to
break through the wall of Spain's Sc
crecy, and is in a position to know
every fact about the movement of
the feet, and his statement that the
squadron will concentrate at the Ca
naries may be taken as a fact.
Confirmation of this is to be found
in the fact that Spain is sending large
numbers OF troops to the Canaries.
The London Globe has a dispatch from
its correspondent at Cadiz, saying
three battalions of marines are quar-
tered at San Fernagdo, near Cadiz, in
readiness for em~barkation.

POSSIBILITIES OF ARCTIC CIRCLE

The close Of the century discloses for the first time in the worlds history a practical purpose to develop the re- sources of the Arctic circle The dis covery of gold in the Klondyke has sent food of immigrants into a terri- tory which was supposed to be almos
 uniEhabitable. And ECw scientists c. Great Britain are making a careful in Vesiga>iCn of enormous deposits of iron ore, some distance from Stock holm, Sweden, within the area includ- ed in the Arctic circle. These new ore fields are apparently of limitless extent and of the greatest value to the iron indus-ry Of Great Britain, which is rap idly finding itself unable to compete with the cheap products Of American ore. These Swedish deposits are said to be among the most valuable ever discovered On either continent
 Following the discovery of gold in Alaska, this may be taken as an indi- ca ion that the mineral wealth of the Arctic regions may ultimately lead to the establishment O. a large population in those parcS of the world nearest the north pole, which have hitherto been little explored, because of their inhos- pitable climate. An ingenious philoso- pher has outlined the theory that the precious metals of the world will be found in grsa5est abundance in the Arctic regions, because, when the world was a mOltsn mass, revolving on it's axis. the tendency of all the metals was naturally toward the axis or the

NOVEL ABOUT JUDAS IscAR1or.

An extraordinary novel is abcut to be published by Dr. William A. Hammon formerly surgeon general of the United States army. It's title is .The Son 0. Parditicn.' The hSro Of it is Judas Iscariot, and the hecrine is Mary Mag dalene, with whom Judas is repre- ssnted as being in love Judas as de- scribsd in the novel, was rich man, holding Cf1ices Of gr-at importance ur- der the Roman government. He pes sessed a peculiar power, the naturc of which he himself did not und3I stand but which we of today would call mas marie. By m:ans of this power he was able sc to influence the Emperor Ti5erius to appoint Pcntius Pilate to the gCvernCrsAip Of JuSea. Incident- ally, the interesting fact is brought ou- that, as Geveliped by Dr. Hammold's rcss sarchss, Pcntirs Pilate was a Span iard.
 Judas is described as pa~ticu ariy handsome man. It is on account of Judas's lcve for Mary, and not fo- the thirty pieces e silver, that he betrays the Lc. d, according to the novel. In historical accuracy the work will rank with General Lew Wallacs's rBsn Hur.''-New York Dispatch.
