The departure Of the Turkish troops

Anything is possible in France, and the
guilty men in this Dreyfus scandal will
resort to desperate expedients rather
than see their vilainy exposed. And
the army's honor is at stake in this issue
which lends force to the anti Drey fus
conspirators. 1t is not at all improbable
that the Royalists may find their oppor-
tunity in the crisis that may arise, and
that the Republic may fade away once
more to make room for the imperial
splendors of throne with all the gor-
geous trappirgs. Only foreign war
would unite France and possibly avert a

in the Concert" over Armenia This is
only another cog in the wheel Of British
reasons why America should hurry up
about becoming enthusiastic over tho
"Anglo-American understanding.
Most of the talk over here about an
understanding between America and
England is based upon the same blood
and cousin idea. In his recent book on
'Russia's Sea Power, Past and Pres
ent." Sir George Clarke suggests an
unders tanding Of some sort between
Russia and England. Sir Charles
Dixie, one of England's leading men,

Gazette to review this work, and de-

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Not a word

the cable communication had been
opened.
among the war officials. the terms
OF the capitulation of Manila. as cahIed
oy Gen. Merritt, were a topic Of dis
cussion. Unofficial advices from Ma
Mia, received previous to the arrival
or the text of the terms, indicated thai
the capitulation of the CITY included
the surrender of the Philippines. and
the Spanish sovereignty over the
whole archipelago was temporarily. at
least, at an end. This view is not sus-
tanned by the conditions of the sur
render, as cabled by Gen. Merritt and
II may be said, it is not the view taken
by the best informed officials of tha
administration.
Whlie some Of the war authorities
last night were inclined to the opinion
that the articles OF capitulation. nat
uraIly somewhat elastic in their
phraseology, might be construed to
mean the surrender Of the Spanish con-
troll over the islands, the prevalent
opinion now is that they mean pre-
c1sely what they say, and that the
surrender includes only the city Of Ma
mia and its immediate SURROUNDINGS
or suburbs, as it is expressed In the
articles
1t can be said authoritatively that
the president is satisfied with the terms
as made by Gen. Merritt and Admiral
Dewey. The instructions afforded them
considerable latitude for individuality
OF action, the president feeling conf
dent that they would secure the best
possible terms in the circumstances.
That they have done so. he is certain.
Rear Admiral Sampson and Rear Ad-
n1ral Schley are expected to arrive
In Washington some time tomorrow.
The appointment of the two adrnirals
respectively on the Cuban and Porto
R1can commissions necessarily will
cause them to be detached temporarily
from their present commands. The de-
tachment, 1t is said by the naval au-
thorities, will be only temporary. In
the absence Of Admiral Sampson, Com
modore Philip will have command of
the squadron of vessels in New York.
Repairs on the ships will be pushed
with vigor, and as rapidly as possible
they will be put in excellent condition
for sea duty in either war or peace.
No determination has yet been reached
by the naval authorities on the uues-
ton Of reorganizing the naval squad
rons on peace footing in view of the
new conditions which now confront
the United States. 1t Is scarcely likely
that any considerable changes will be
made before a successful termination
Of the pending peace negotiations shall
have been reached.

Of the opinion that the commission will

during the transitional period until the

the government will probably call tho
attention of the cabinet at Washing
ton, to the fact that while the insur-
gent leaders profess to accept the ann
istice. their subordinates continue to
carry on hostilities against outlying
Spanish garrisons.
While the government thus devotes
it's attention for moment chiefly to
questions of detail relating to the An
titles, much anxiety is felt with regard
to the Philippines question, which is
likely to create much more serious d fl
culties. Much will depend, of course,
on the attitude assumed by the United
States government, and consequently
American public opinion is watched
here with the keenest interest. The
attitude Of the powers having far Eass-
ern interests Is also much speculated
upon. 1t is believed that Germany will
not allow great territorial changes
