AN ALLIANCE.
Preliminary Steps Taken by England
and the United States.
Great Britain to Recognize the Monroe
Doctrine and Uncle sam to Build the
N.caraguan Canal aud Allow Eng
land To So d In Case of War.

LONDON. MAY so The Washington
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph.
tclcgraphing SUNDAY says: Il have
just learned from a high authority in
the state department that important
preliminary steps toward an anglo
American alliance have already been
taken. How far these negotiations,
if they can yet bc called
that. have proceeded it is not easy to
ascertain, for, naturally, strict secrecy
is maintained, but my information is
that the preliminary suggestions have
been made and that the subject of
such an alliance is practically before
the two governments in some shape.
The recent visits of Sir Julian
Paunccfotc to the state department
have not it seems had reference alto
gether To the Canadian negotiations.
According to my authority the features
of the proposed alliance now being
considered are these:
England is to recognize the Mon
roe doctrine, To attempt no increase of
her territorial possessions in the west
ern hemisphere, and to indorse the
American construction of that doe
trine The United States is To build
the Nicaragua canal and Great Britain
is to have the use of it in time of
war
The United States is to have all the
territory taken from Spain in the pres
cnt war and Great britain is to pro-
tect the United States in the posses
sion if this should Toe threatened. The
United States is to stand by England
in her policy in China and the east,
and all the British ports in the east
are To be opened to the United States
under the most favored nation clause.
The main features of an arbitration
treaty are tn be Incorporated. 1t has
been provided that all matters in dis
pute not involving the Monroe doc
trine or the Nicaragua canal, are to
be submitted to non-partisan com
mission. The existing understanding
bearing upon the relations between
the two governments on the great
lakes are to be abrogated and the
United States are to be given the use
of the Welland canal in case of war.
The alliance is To bc offensive and
defensive. 1t proceeds on lines such
as the foregoing. As a matter of
course, all that has been done SO far is
purely tentative, but my informant
| gives the above as the general outline
suggested"

CADIZ FLEET
Acco-.ii-g to Report 1t is in had shape to
to Go Manila or Anywhere Else for
Some Weeks to Come.

New YORK. May 3O-A dispatch to
the World from London says: The
chief officer of a steamer just in from
Cadiz said Friday night:
When we left Cadiz last Friday the
only Spanish warships there were the
battle ship Pelayo, the cruiser Emper-
ador Carlos ", one torpedo catcher
and the converted cruisers Patriota
and Rapido. The cruisers were at the
arsenal.
Everything bore the appearance OF
unreadiuess.
The Pelayo's boilers, recently put
in at Toulon, had just been condemn
ed by the experimenting engineer at
Cadiz on the ground that they were OF
insufficient strength. She was, how
ever, coaling.
The Rapido and the Patricia had
not been fitted with guns, and neither
had a crew.
There was no belief in the reports
that the fleet was going to Manila or
anywhere else for some weeks at
least"

The loss Of the hair Is one OF the most
serious losses a woman can undergo.
Beautiful hair gives many a woman a

aud the shining tresses of chestnut aud
auburn are changed to gray or to a faded
shadow of their former brightness. such
a loss is no longer a necessity. There IS
one remedy which may we'll be called a
great remedy by reason of its great sue
