NOT A HIGH OPINION.
Expressed by French NewSpaDerS of
 Americans.

Paris, Nov. 2.-The Soleil today, commenting editorially upon the posi- tion assumed by the American peace commissioners, says: "'No monarchiaI government would have dared to con- duet itself after the fashion of the Americans, who are forever talking so much of right and liberty. Th- plan of the Americans is now evident
 Tt is to take all of the Spanish col onies and leave Spain the debts of all these colonies. This is the result of the holy war undertaken to insure the independence of the Cubans. What base hypocrisy do these liberals, these democrats, these republicans show''
 SUGGEST ARBITRATION.
 St. Petersburg, Nov z.-The Novosti, commenting upon the United States determination to claim the Philippine islands, says: "The great powers can, like Spain, protest agsEnst the pro- posed cession, as several Of them are directly interested in the maintenance of a statu quo. In an extreme case the question should be arbitrated."

LOOKS MORE LIKE WAR.
Extraordinary Activity Of the British
 in Chinese Waters.

Wei Hai Wei, Nov 2.-All the Brit tleship Centurion, the first class cruiser Narcissus, the econd class cruiser Her mione, the torpedo boat destroyer Whiting, the torpedo boat destroyers Fame and Handy, and the first class gunboat Peacock have cleared for ac- tion and are ready for sea at an hours notice.
 The first class battleShip Victorious and the first class cruiser Undaunted at Chefoo, are coaling to their full ca pacity. The greatest secrecy is main tained as to the meaning of these war like preparations, but there is no doubt that important instructions are expsct- ed at any moment. A large Russian fleet is assembled at Port Arthur.
 RUSSIA THE TARGET.
 London, Nov. 2.-The dispatch from Wei Hai Wei announcing war prepara- tions, officials here announce as grave, coupled with the Anglo-French compli- cation. It is surmised that Russia, profiting by the present strained rela- tions between Great Britain and France, decided to push forward her claims in the far east by fOrcibly ssizing tho valuable treaty port of Niu Chuang, which Great Britain can- not permit, it is said.
 A MENACING SIGN.
 Lcndon, Nov. 2.-The fact that the coast guardsmen throughout the onited Kingdom have been warned to be in readiness for mobilization is re- garded as a menacing sign. Many of them have already joined their ships.
 MINING HER HARBORS.
 Sydney, Cape Breton, Nov. 2.-The British warships Cordelia and Pelican arrived today from Halifax. Their visit is regarded as extraordinary, as both were supposed to leave for home to go cut Of commission. The ships have submarine mines and heavy guns aboard, specially shipped at Halifax, and it is reported they will mine the entrance to the Sydney and St. Johns, N. r., harbors.

intermission for breakfast, fer the de- struction Of the Spanish fleet was al ready completed. The Americans, though, had breakfast and much needed rest. Then they returned to the scene of the engagement, silenced the land batteries in twenty minutes and
 burned four Spanish gunbCats which had been drawn as near shore as pos sible and Scuttled. As soon as the American fleet retired Dewey signaled the captains together to report casual ties. Eight men on the Baltimore had been wounded by splinteIs from a small arms ammunition box Cn deck which had been struck by a Spanish shell. The wounds of all were dTessed and the men returned to their guns be- fore the close Of the agsmsnt, but one of them fainted from less Cf blood
 4 3-inch hole had been bored through the Bostons mast and a shell had passed through the captains quarters destroying only some clothing. The reported damage to the American fleet amounted to S10,000, but Mir. P3trie says the real damage by the eaemys guns was less than $25. The report was made to cover a great deal of property which the crews threw over beard instead of slowing it away ac- ccTding to orders. Thus departmental inquiries and court martials were obvi2ted. The officers winked at this wholesale destruction of gOvcrnma ant property.
 The crew Of the Olympia had been eating on deck. Tables and benches and all other movable woodwork ca pablo of bSing reduced to flying sl lin ters were ordered to be lashed to he sides or, in naval language to be "sluns" oVerbcard. A lieutenant rushed from below and approaching green cook, cried: What in the h-l are you doing?" The cock replied: "TIhe order was passed to sling things overheard and I've slung my share" So had all the rest who knew better. The crew fer days after the battle had to eat thcir meals from the floor of the deck.
 The most reckless bravery imagi-I nable was witnessed by MT. Petrie on the part of the crew Of 3. Spanish tor pedO boat during the engag5 5ment. The beat was detected stealing along the shore endeavcring to reaOh the Amer can fleet unObservsd. Seeing that she was discovered she made Q straight dash for the enemy with net chance in a million Of success. The rapid fire guns Of ths Americans were concentrated on Der and she was riddIed at distance of hardly 1 800 feet from the nearest ship. Then she Was turned and baached, whsre she was found next day covered with blood MT. Petrie says the estimated Spanish less in kill2d T sJ,r, but the real number could net ba as- certained by the Spanish themselves, fer the reason that all the vessels had double crews, the numbers of one of which was not accounted for in the records.

Absolute Control Over the Electric
 Business of Japan.

Chicago, Nov 2.--The Siemans and Halske Electric company of America is considering a proposition from the Japanese government to form in Chi cago a syndicate with 9 capitalization of about s1O,OOO ,O0O to install and op- crate all the electric street car lines and incandescent light and power plants which are to be established in the domain Of the mikedo, as another step in the moderniZing movement in progress there. Tha franchise to be granted is exclusive and would be one of the most valuable, if net the most valuable permits, ever granted to one syndicate or corporation.

How Sardininn Women Dress,

The women of Sardinia are described
by visitor to that island as being of
elegant figure and graceful carriage,
with large black eyes, dark hair and
brunette complexion. They dress in
very much the same style as women in
other parts of civilized Europe, except
that there is not the same extreme haste
to adopt the latest fashion. The wives
and daughters of the farmers and trades
men, by the gorgeousness of their CO.'S
tunes, amply compensate for the sim
plicity of dress among the upper classes
and at their religious fetes and other
festivals. when they appear in gala
dress, they present wonderful spec
tacle.
These costumes are a sort of family
heirloom, handed down from mother to
daughter and treasured as highly as he.
reditary jewels or ancestral portraits.
The fashion never changes, and instead
of feeling ashamed of being seen in the
same dress at two different entertain
ments they glory in its antiquity an6
in the number of occasions on which il
has been worn. The costumes of tn
women vary greatly in different parts o.
| Sardinia. In some districts small blacl
jacket, open in the front, is worn ovel
| very short bodice of bright coloret
silk and brocade, which is loosely laced
| before and cut rather low. There arr
apparently no corsets. The petticoat il
of light brown cloth, very full, and be
tween it and the bodice is a sort of neu
tral ground of protruding garment
which by no means adds to the genera
| beauty of the toilet.
