Bome Folks Think Our War Preparations Are

Special Gable Despatch to THE Sun.
LONDON, March 14.-The Sheffield Telegraph
In an articlo to-day says: Are we not rather
hasty in assuming that the war preparations Of
tho Government of the United States are die
rected solely against Spainl American states-
men are very deep. They may be content to let
1t appear that their nrmaments, which are
really intended for much greater occasion, are
designed against Spain.
This much is certain. II the United States
Government Is determined to stand iRline with
England and Japan in defending China, it would
have to make such preparations as are now
afoot. England and Japan are ready. the United
States Is not. 1t is fair assumption that there
is at least a taeit understanding between Great
Britain and the United States. This would ac-
count for Mr.. Goschen's extraordinary reluc-
tance to exercise the right OF preemption over
the warships building in England. The best of
these are for Japan, our ally and could not bo
touched. The United States is presumably anx.
ious to purchase the two ships which were SO
pointedly pressed upon Mr. Goschen's attention
and which he hinted were unsuitable. They
are certainly unsuitable to us. II tho Ameri.
cans wanted to buy them more impolitic step
is inconceivable at this juncture. when We arc
promised American support, than our buying
them over their heads. Happily tho Govern
ment is not likely to be entrapped into such Q
blunder"
