JOMIN0US COMMENT.
British and French Newspapers ON
the FashOda Crisis.

the FashOda Crisis.
LONDON, Oct. 20. = The speech of
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, last night,
has deeply impressed England, and the
utmost concern is felt as to how
France will receive 1t. The idea has
been prevalent that the French have
not realized how seriously England
felt on the Fasheda question, which
has been coupled with a desire that
France would not force England to
an armed support of Lord Salisbury's
stand Most of the morning papers
elaborate some of the excited state
nents of the belligerent preparations
Of France. The Paris correspondent
of the Daily Mail says:
'In Toulon and Brest every nerve
is strained to get ready for war, which
may break out on short notice. The
Paris press is growing more and more
determined to back up extreme meas
ures-even a resort to arms. The
French have been exceedingly piqued
by the threatening tone of the English
papers, which is a more likely casus
belli than the mere question Of
Fashoda. Consequently, the outlook
outlook here is grave. There are re-
ports Of troops hurrying from Paris
to Brest and Toulon. The artillery at
the various ports have been confiden-

and the cannon at all the forts and
batteries are kept ready for action at
any moment. Today there was a pro-
longed war council at Brest OF the
chiefs of the various services, and NJ
Lockroi is hastily returning to ToulOn
on account Of the gravity of the sit
uation.''
The Paris correspondent Of the
Standard says:
eff England keeps on saying that
Marchand must go, France will reply
that Marchand will stay, and, if he be
removed forcibly, there can be little
doubt as to what the consequences will
be-"
On the other hand, the Paris corre-
spondent of the Daily Graphic says:
II have good reason for stating that
Count Muravieff, the Russian foreign
minister, has discouraged French re-
sistence in the matter of Fashoda."
Most of the papers. however. refuse
to accept the explanation that French
activity is merely in pursuance OF
M. Lockroi's scheme. Several exhort
the government to answer the move
ments of France by mobilizing the
British fleet. Several of the more con-
servative organs, notably the Chroni-
Gle, ignore the French government.
The Daily Chronicle says:
"Sir Michael HicIzs-Be has been
at it again. He is dangerous man.
He has honesty without tact"
Other papers hint that the plain
speaking OF the chancellor at a time
when crisis is approaching is an in

MADRID, Oct. 19.-The cabinet has
decided to forward to the Spanish peace
commissioners at Paris an official dis
patch received yesterday from Manila,
reporting an engagement between the
American and insurgent warships
growing out OF the refusal of Admiral
Dewey to permit the insurgents to fly
their flag from their warships. The
dispatch says that Admiral Dewey
having forbid the Taglos to hoist the
rebel flag upon their vessels a serious
fight ensued, resulting in loss Of life
on both sides.

Capt Aunon, the minister of ma

Mia, announcing a naval engagement
between the Americans and the rebels,
in consequence of Admiral Dewey for
bidding the latter to fly the rebel flag
from their ships. The dispatch adds
that there were losses on both sides,
but that the Americans captured the
rebel ships. The scene of the engage
nlent is not stated, but it is supposed
to have been Manila bay
WASHINGTON, Oct. 19-As far as
could be ascertained no information re-
garding the reported naval engage
ment has been received at the navy
department, nor has Gen. Otis, COM
manding the United States troops at
Manila, made any reference to it in
any communications he may have
made to the war department. The dis
patch created considerable interest IN
Washington. Recently the newspapers
contained a statement that Admiral
Dewey had dispatched one or two of
his ships to another portion of the
Philippine group on q mission of some
Importance, and the suggestion is made
unoficially that it may have been these
vessels which have been engaged IN
combat with the insurgents.

All aged and sapling players will line up on this occasion, and great ball is promised. The all-aged nine will be composed of:
 Billy Incell, once California's most famous pitcher, long since retired. but still able to twirl the sphere with his old time cunning This man, on whose prow- ess as pitcher in the past thousands of dollars have been staked, will make to- day on the occasion of Powers benefit. what will in all probability, prove the positively last appearance on baseball diamond.

The Fit of a Corset.

Corsets of various styles have been worn by women ever since the eyes of man have admired the graceful form of woman. In the days of the Roman Cor setus" woman was content to suffer the tortures of an uniting, uncomfortable affair, that 1t might add beauty and sym metry to her form. At the middle of the fifteenth century it was mark of in- f1uence in England-wives of men hav- ing an income of less than $2OO year were forbidden to wear corsets over a certain cost.
 sets are used annually by the women of the United States alone, giving employ ment to 10000 people
 Up to recent years comfort in corsets was almost an unknown quality. Corsets that gave shape and beauty to a form Corsets that were at all easy were mis- shapen affairs of no practical use.
 Miss Hulln, the expert corset-f1tter now at Hale's, claims that proper corset-fit- ting Is a science. She has made careful study of feminine anatomy, and says that 90 per cent of the corset-wearing people of the world do not wear corsets that fit them properly. Each form has its De- culiarities, and a correctly fitting corset should add beauty to form and comfort and support to the wearer. An oppor- tunity to consult such a student of cor sets and feminine form seldom occurs. Miss Hulin Is leader in her profession and is in a position to give advice that may mean years of comfort to any lady consulting her. She will be at Hale Bros. for some time, demonstrating, fitting, ad- vising and explaining the merits of cor rect corset fit and comfort. Her services and advice will be free to the patrons of the store.

ure on a track where the grade was steep. It, like the Markley fender, had to ho carried far above the rails, and on trial it passed over the dum- mics.
 A fender made by John Craig, a Mis- sion blacksmith, had many good points and 1t was given severe test It, un- like the others, picked up the dunn mics that were placed in front of it, and a netting along the forward end of the car prevented any hard knocks that might be given by swiftly mov- ing car.
 The Clark fender that is in use in Oakland, Alameda and Sacramento was given a severe test and it met most of the requirements demanded of it. The greatest objection raised to it was that 1t could not be carried close enough to the rails to clear the track on the grades and still be effective on the level stretches of the track.
 Winnings fender was the last one tried. It is much like the one Tucker claims to have invented. The other in ventors say Vining and Tucker stole each others ideas on car lenders Winnings fender was without the cush- ions In front of the car. It scooped up the dummies after rolling them along the ground for a few feet, and Vining and his railroad friends said 1t was a success. The dummies, however, were considerably damaged
 Henry Boardman had fender at tached to a truck arranged with a few buggy wheels. The railway company would not allow him to put it on one of their cars. A young man substi- tuted himself for the dummy and the fender picked him up without causing him the least injury The truck was propelled by some of the friends of the inventor.
