BERLIN PRESS COMMENT.
Views of German Editors ON the Phil.
fppine Question.


fppine Question.
NEW YORK, May IA dispatch to the
World from Berlin says: A new power has
sprung up, fully armed, the Berlin news
papers proclaim, bringing to the nations Of
Europe consequences that cannot be fore
seen, but certain to be momentous. The
novel situation created by the American oc-
cupation of the Philippines is the subject Of
the leading articles in to-day's journals.
These articles may be summed up thus:
America must either hold the Philippine
Islands herself or transfer them to some
European power. Restoring them to Spain
IS impossible 1t is equally impossible that
they should remain in the hands of the
native insurgents. Signs are multiplying
that the people in authority in the United
States will decide to retain the islands as
the fact that this eventually will entail upon
the American people the necessity of main
tanning a larger army and navy, and Will
bring nearer the danger of imbroglios with
the european powers having large interests
in the East. England, Japan and Russia
are the only possible competitors for pos
session should America withdraw. If Eng
land should become the owner of the Philip
pines the United States would see that she
gave up the British West Indian possess
sons in exchange. Japan has poor chance.
Her competition with America in China is
keen, and the United States will do moth
ing to help her. Besides she could give
nothing in exchange. Russia and America
possible that America may purchase Rus
sas continued friendship by checkmating
England. This much, however, is certain
II the United States comedies anything to

French Papers Want Subsidy.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May IA story is told
tonight on apparently excellent authority
which accounts for the unfriendly attitude
OF the French newspapers. The story is
that an agent of the French press has been
in Washington for several days trying to
obtain a large sum of money from the gov
eminent with which to substitute the news
papers of Paris and other large Cities He
is represented as having interviewed Speak
er Reed and other prominent men, by all
of whom he was rebuffed. His failure to
blackmail the government accounts for the
malice Of his clients. The man is still in
town, and has not given up his enterprise,
though advised that it's a hopeless cause

LONDON. May 15.-There are no fresh
war developments and the rumors of Euro
pean Intervention to put stop to the con-
fiict between Spain and the United States
may be dismissed as mere attempts to pro-
woke official utterances on the situation. Adj
vices from Madrid indicate that the people
there regard Admiral Cerveras as their
champion, hoping for much from his as
tuteness. The newly appointed admiral of
the Cadiz fleet is also regarded as an able
officer, and until both have had their innings
it is probable that the Spaniards will look
with greater leniency upon the present gov
ernment The recent alleged success of the
Spanish forces has inclined the country to
ignore the question of Cabinet changes for
the present.

in 17GO, for the first woman 8 cub found

OF which we have any authentic infor.

name of "Female Society for the Re-

city was visited by the yellow fever, and
the mettle of its members was tried and
found to possess the true, clear ring. for
while most of those who had .he means,
fled from the town, these twen'y-three
women STAYED by Anne Parish and fought

stay for two or three years. Some
very rich diggins and some poor
ones. This creek was first struck
in 1895, but owing to the great rich
strike at Dawson it has laid still un-

I think they have some of the
richest mines in Dawson, that is on
Eldorado creek, that ever saw, but
the rest Of the creeks that are talked
of 60 much, are not what they are
said to be-. 7o-mile, one-hslf of 40
mile and Birch creeks are in Alaska
and the laws are so bad In the north
west that the average miner does
not want to stay there. For in
stancei a miner killed q moose the
other day and sold it for $500 and
it was found out he had no miners

away from him and he was put to
