ALL PRAISE OUR NAVY,
British WeekIies Say We Could
With France or Germauv

! LONDON. July 9-The weekly news
papers to-day, in discussing the war. all
pay glowing tributes to the American
navy. Even tho Saturday Review says:
| 1T is impossible not 10 feel a certain
| pride in these achievements OF men Of
our own race. Every Englshman, too.
will remember that 1t was the possession
| Of this same quality, the fine marksman-
ship which the Americans display, which
gave us victories both on land and sea
from Crecy TO the Crimea, and something
peculiar and noble happened In this fight
which showed I'm n far higher way the
| kinship between the two peoples: Don't
cheer shouted Captain Philips. the poor
devils arc dying
1T seems 10 us that this expression OF
tender sympathetic humanity is Just az
fine as the Kiss me. Hardy OF the dying
Nelson"
OUR WORK SPLENDID.
The Spectator In a long article or tho
same subject. says:
THE first thought OF all Engllshmen
Is that the American fleet did its work
splendldly. The whole performance OF
ADMIRAL SIMPSONS fleet was In Accord
ance with the best traditions OF Anglo
Saxon navies, and every EugIishman has
read Of its dOings with a flush OF pride.
There was the same old hard pounding
as the Elizabethan soa-dogs used, tho
same curious mixture OF steadlness. dar-
ing coolness and reckless dash. The
moral aspect Of what was almost tho
first, and OF what may be the last feet
action between the Spanish and English
races is very much alike. In both cases
II was the man behind the gun who, In
the last resort. won the battle
THE LIONS WHEELS.
''rhe battle shows that the American
navy IS most efficient fighting MAGAZINE.
We did not need to be told that here. We
knew Il already, and realized OF what
stun the Lions whelps are made. They,
however did not know II on the Conti-
nent, though they apparently know IL
now. For ourselves. we have little doubt
that the American fleet could face even
that OF France without any great risk or
disaster in spite OF tho fact that. by
the rules, the French feet is ten times
stronger. We believe this could be done.
II it were needful, but 1t won't be, as
America won't be attacked by France
without our taking q hand in the game.
Sampson, Dewey, and the officers they
have the happiness TO command are ablo
10 destroy French ships OF vastly superior
power. just as we did hundred yeara
ago.
GERMANY NOWHERE.
"As for the German and American
nayies there can, OF course. he no COM
parison. The Germans are fine gailors
and brave men, but a naval struggle be-
tween the United States and Germany
would be very short and very complete"
The Speaker says:
THE greatest credit rs due 10 the Anneri-
can navy for tho manner in which this
operation has been carried out Like the
exploit OF Dewey's, the Sea fight at SAM
Iiago has proved that the British sailor
has in his American kinsman a worthy
ally and rir.L SO far as her deet 10
concerned. America need not fear COM
oarlson with any country in the world"

'LOTTA" EvADEs MARsHALs.
The Actress Sued for 100000, But
Escapes Personal Service.

N->'M AoIh IlmeS.l
For three weeks the little woman known
10 the theatrical world as Lolita" but
known in law as Lolita Crabtree has kent
herself hid from the United States Deputy
Id"rshals who have been trying to inform
ler by due process Of law that she has
2oeeh sued in the United States Circuit
'Oourt Ior $4,000 for alleged false impri-
sCnment and malicious prosecution.
The PLAINTIFF in the case is Charles G.
Macy VINO was member of the firm of
macy q Pen@lCtOn, bankers and brokers
OF % Broadway, with whom Lolita kept
speculative account and with whom she
had deposited several thousand dollars
worm or stock TO indemnify thu firm
against loss from any advancements that
might be made for her in the buying and
selling OF stocks. When Macy e Pendle-
ton failed the books balanced i'm Jotta's
favor and she brought a criminal action
against Macy * Pendleton for alleged
conversion of the stocks. This case was
heard about a month ago before Judge
Mcmahon. and was dismissed. Thereupon
CHARLES c. Macy instituted the suit I'm the ]
Federal Court against Miss Crabtree. ,
claiming 100000 damages to his char
acter and reputation
Lolita evidently heard Of the suit. for she |
hid herself away for three long, hot weeks |
in her observation-disclosures at the corner of |
seventh avenue and 117th street. There |
she stayed until last Saturday, when she
escaped the vigiant eyes of the Deputy |
Marshals and went TO the country. One |
report says she went TO her summer home |
In Connecticut, while another is to the
effect that she left for some point in
New Jersey.
Mr. Wheeler, OF Wheeler e. Cortis. Ma |
rvs attorneys. when seen at his home, 73l
Park avenue, last evening did not seem
greatly exercised over Lottas departure.
He said that If personal process cannot be
had on her, publication can be made and
his will comply with the requirements Of
he law.
