Thinks Spain Would Have q Poor
Show Against American Navy,
NO WAR VESSELS FOR SALE.
A Member OF Parliament says she Uaited
states Would blow livery Town
on Spanish Coast TO Atoms
Within . A1OnEh.

London, March s, "The United
States will have every town on the
Spanish coast blown to atoms, am
ready to wager, a month after the be-
ginning Of hostilities," said William
Allan, NJ. p.
MIR. Allan is one Of the LARGEST ship
builders on the Tyne and is an ac-
knowledged high authority on naval
questions.
The correspondent had asked him IL
there is any likelihood that Spain can
buy war vessels now building in Brit
ish yards from the government which
ordered them.
1T wouldn't do Spain any good If
she could buy them" Mr.. Allan an
swered. ':But, except those ordered by
Japan, there are very few orders in
the English yards from foreign gov
ernments, and Japan won't sell. I
can't conceive why Chile should sell
ships to her ancient enemy to be used
against the United States, which
helped her so generously to her indie
pendence. But even should Chile or
Brazil sell ships to Spain they would
be of no use to her.
II have always expressed in the
house of commons, as you know, my
admiration for American warships.
challenged our government to test the
new cruiser Powerful by sending her
across the Atlantic at full speed, as
the United States government had sent
the Columbia, but our government de-
clined.
Il consider that America has some
OF the very finest ships afloat, and l
know the American sailors to be as
good as any in the world.
why, Spain is a retrograde--a NOR
ibund nation. If she should snap up
all the warships available all over the
world she could not give the United
States cause for an instant's concern.
Il believe in the grit, tenacity and
fighting capacity of the Anglo-Saxon
races as against these Spaniards, who
are fed on oil and garlic and are with
out stamina. Why, in the olden days

they have not improved since then,
rather the contrary.
"It would be an easy matter for the
United States to capture the principal
Spanish arsenal at Trubia, near the
north coast, and not far from Oviedo.
The place is not defensible, as the
United States navy department doubt
less knows.
"But there will be no war. The
Spanish government knows it would
be the signal for a Carlist rising.
"They will have some kind of a rev.
olution in Spain before long, but as to
war with the United States, there will
be none.
81 have never believed that the
United States wants Cuba, but l expect
they will employ all their influence to
establish republic there"
Mr.. Tweddle, the manager Of Thor
nycroft's famous torpedo boat works at
ChiswiclC- -the-Thames, said to the
correspondent: II don't think the
Spanish navy can cause the United
States much concern"

Mr.. Ed Refs returned from New York
Saturday where he had been with
another car of poultry. Mr.. Refs is
a heavy shipper and has done well
this season both for those from whom
ne has purchased and for himself.
During his absence we called up Mr..
Porter, who informed us that Mr..
Reis' business was very heavy. The
grain purchased and men worked are

Gave the Usurer a Verdict.

An English paper records a pecu-
liar decision in the suit of usurer
against q poor woman. The man
had lent the woman money in such a
way that 1t was to be paid in INSTALL
ments, and with monthly usurious in
terest. The woman was unable to
pay the amount due. The judge sat-
isfied himself that the woman was
honest and honorable, and that what
she had already paid in installments
would cover the original loan and a
reasonable interest. "Will Eyou &C.
cept f5 in discharge" asked the
judge of the plaintiff. "You will
then have had 10 per scent. on the
loan" The plaintiff would accept
nothing less than the full amount to
which the law entitled him. "Then,"
said the judge, although cannot in
validate the agreement, 1 can make
an order which, 1 think, will fit the
case. | give judgment for the full
amount, to be PAID at the rate of Cd
per month" AT this rate of.payment
the Insurer would be rs years in get
ting his money.-Sau Francisco Ar
