OFFICIAL NEWS OF THE
 SIGNING OF THE TREATY

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10-The official news of the signing of the peace treaty was received In Washington little later than the press reports. It was in cipher form. as usual, from Judge Day. It was at once transmitted to the Pres ident, who was alone at that time, but within a comparatively short time all the members of the Cabinet had either called or sent their congratulations. The Presidents congratulations were promptly cabled to the commission.
 The news of the signing had been so thoroughly discounted in advance that the actual receipt of the official advices created little stir here. There was a general feeling of relief, however. that no unforeseen circumstance ,intervened at the last moment to block the peace full close of the negotiations.

 One is forced to admit that Calais forms part of England much more manifestly than Fashoda does. If this were conceded some fresh demands would follow. for England has deter mined to make war upon us. She has decided France must be crushed just as Rome decided that Cartilage must be destroyed-'delenda est Carthage. D
 NOT is the editor chief of Libre Parole alone in this opinion. Henri Rochefort expressed virtually the same views to me, though of course in. his own vivacious style.
 England wants war with France.'' he saids hotly. "She is looking for a pretext to declare 1t and if. she cannot ind any she intends to make one.
 Sir Edmund Monson's speech is the latest evidence of this It is fnsolently threatening to the same degree as 1t is absurdly unjust. When or where was ever a proposition to found a school in any country regarded as casus beIli?'' i M. Rochefort himself admitted the superior force of the English fleet though he was inclined to doubt whether England's ships were as re- hably manned or their material as good. But, conceding this and even al- lowing that both personnel and ships were all that they appeared to be on the surface, he said he could not under stand why the French Government should not give Sir Edmund Monson his passports at once, come what might.
 Even coward" he said. If he sees he must ultimately fight a duel, would hardly wait until his adversary had kicked him into the field"

enemy was in hot pursuit.
Hour after hour passed, while tn,
Spanish warship came gradually nearer
and nearer, and George Williams was
enabled to experience those delight
full sensations which all true sports
men declare that the fox so thoroughly
enjoys when he hears the hounds in
full cry. At length Gibraltar ap-
peared in sight. George, in his play
full way, told me that he "made the
Rock" BUT, of course, this was only
his humorous exaggeratioh. George
is high minded gentleman, and in
his more serious moments I have
never known him to deviate from the
tt1rath-except when he was talking
Spanish. And that is language
which lends itself to allegory.
When he was within mile or two
of Gibraltar, George suddenly stopped
and allowed all his steam to blow off
through some thing which, I believe.
is called the exhaust pipe. have not
an idea what this is, but I do know
that the noise was simply hideous.
The captain of the Spanish battleship
very naturally concluded that the
Crocodile's engine had broken down
and prepared in triumph to seize upon
his helpless victim.
Meanwhile, George was making
signs to the lookout station at Gibral-
tar He asked for no sort Of help. All
he said was
"Please make note of the exact
position of this ship, the Crocodile.
And the officer in command of the
lookout station very kindly signalled
back to say that he had done so.
Then the Spanish man-of-war came
up in all her majesty, and Immediately
took possession of the Crocodile.
There was nothing for George to dc
but to submit, and so he and his ship
were taken backto Cartagena.
But directly they arrived there
George telegraphed the British am
bassador at Madrid to say that thu
Crocodile had been illegally arrested
by o Spanish man-of-war For tn
sea within three miles of the coast i
held, by international law. to belong
to the nation which owns that coast
and, as George had been within three
miles of Gibraltar at the time when b,
was caught, his ship had been seizet
in British waters. He also sent {
similar one to Messrs Evans and Har
rison in London.
In matters of this kind the British

statements in every particular, and il
less than forty y-eight hours the Croco
die was released. In addition t.
this, the Spanish government had thu
pleasure of paying twenty-five thou
sand dollars damages for illegal cap
ture and detention.
And, strange to say, George Will
iams is still a great favorite with his
employers, Messrs. Evans and Harri
