considerable portion of to-day's nee
ing. The discussion as to the Philip
pines expedition bore on what the Unit
ed States troops would encounter there.
The population of the islands. the fight
ing force of the Spaniards in that uar
ter and the geographical phases of the
occupancy of h Stands were consid-
cred. .
Estimates OF the number of troops the
Americans will nave to cope with were
submitted. They ranged from 5000 to
20. 900 Spanish soldiers. but the conclu-
sion reached was that the number could
be successfully counted or as about
10, 900. The force already selected to
go with General Merritt was believed to
be more han adequate to cope with
these troops. who were thought to he in
not the best condition. II the number
were greater, the administration would
send as many men as were wanted to
reinforce those about to start with Cen
eral Merritt.
A great feature of the session was the
absence of any discussion of the mill
tary and naval movements as to Cuba
or the Spanish fleet. This was one re-
suit of the policy which had been agreed
between the members of the presi-
dents cabinet, and aside from Secre-
taries Long and Alger, very little is
known as to what is going on.

Swiftest i'm the World.

From the Scientific American.
N Russian government has ordered OF
a British firm two 3s-knot torpedo boats
on the model of the Turbinia, and pro-
PEELED with turbine motors working ON
four shafts. each of which carries three
propellers. This is eight knots faster than
the fastest torpedo boat ~destroyers in the
British navy. Just how much courage is
required on the part of the naval archi-
tect who signs his name to a contract for
a 3s-knot boat-ii miles an hour-is evil
dent from a comparison of figures. The 500
ton ''d~estroyers" require 5000 horse pow
err to drive them at 30 knots an hour. Al
these high speeds the resistance of the
water increases as something more than
the cube of the speed. The cube OF - is
more than double the cube OF 30, and
hence the 5000 horse power of a 3Oo-ton
destroyer would have to be raised to more
than 12,O00 to enable her TO catch one OF
the new torpedo boats. Blu l2.b9 hose
power reciprocating engines of the COM
mon type, with the necessary boilers and
coal. would sink a 300-ton torpedo boat.
supposing they could be slowed away In
her hold. Evidently, then, "A speed OF u
knots involves "A radical change In tho
accepted methods Of propulsion.

Mysterious Temple in AMMAN.
~, the Sinrapore Free Press.

From the Singapore Free Press.
The great mystery about Indo-China,
and one which must ever be insoluble,
is the story of the lost race and van
quished civilization of that strange
country. The mighty walls of Angkor-
Wat. rising in the midst of sparsely
populated jungles. remains as the me-
mortal of a great empire which has ut
terly disappeared and is altogether lost
to history. No one will ever know who
planned this gigantic temple, or what
tyrant bounded on his myriads OF peo-
pie to build up those immense blocks
of stone and cover them with the most
elaborate of sculptures. Angkor-Wat
is one of the most astonishing monu-
ments I'm the world, and this forgotten
temple was built so as to endure as
long as the earth itself, were ii not for
the irresistibly destructive efec OF
plant life on the strongest walls that
man can raise. Only a highly civilized
and very wealthy people could have
erected Angkor-Wat-a very different
race to the Annamite of modern days.
The whole nation has disappeared as
utterly as the busy myriads who once
populated the wastes and solitudes of
Memphis.

speech. Senior Silvela, leader of the
dissident conservatives, replied h a

Senior Romero Y Robledo. member of

government was in a crisis in the very
declaration of war, and that If the
present were a continuation of the
policy of the old cabinet, then the

Terrible Castigation Given n Bishop by
Victor Hugo.

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
In Victor Hugo's Correspondence
just published in Paris. is this letter
to a bishop, Monseigneur do Segur.
whom he addressed as Monsieur: II
was not aware of your existence. To-
day l learn that you exist. and even
that you are bishop. | believe IL. You
have had the kindness to write the
following lines about me: Victor
Hugo. the great. the austere Victor
Hugo. the magnificent poet of democ-
racy and of the universal republic, is
equally a poor man afflicted with morc
than 300, 900 livres a year italicized in
the text); some even say five. His in
famous book Les M~iserables,"
brought him at a stroke 500, 900 francs.
But we hear nothing of the largess his
vast humanitarian chart naturally
obliges him to make to his beloved
class. the laborers. They say he is
avaricious, as selfish as he is vain
glorious
Il will not waste time in assuring
you that in the ten lines quoted above
there are as many lies as there are
words. / will content myself with
touching on the literary appreciation
of Les Miserables.' which you qualify
as infamous. In Les Miserables' there
is a bishop. good, sincere. lovable. fra
ternal. who has wit as well as mild
ness. and who mingles with his bless
ings every virtue. This is why Les
Miserables' is an infamous book.
Whence we must conclude that 1t
would be an admirable book If the
bishop was a man of hate and impos-
ture, an insulter, "A vile n vulgar
writer-a coarse scribe of the basest
kind. a peddler of police calumnies, a
croziered and mitred liar. Would the
second bishop be truer h the first?
The question concerns you, monsieur.
You know more about bishops than /
do"
