LONDON TIMES WAR REVIEW.
American Policy at Santiago Approv-
ed-Admiral Dewey Complimented
on His DiDlOmacy

LONDON, July 25.-The Times, in its
weekly war review, expresses the opinion
that the measures taken by General Shaf-
ter for the protection of life and property
at Santiago de Cuba will exercise a def
mite influence upon other parts of the ISL
and, where it will be understood that
Spanish loyalists are not to be abandoned.
whatever happens President McKinleys
instructions for the government of Santa
go, the article continued. which conform
completely with the pledges given before
the war. establish a precedent that may
prove happy augury in relation to Amer
lean expansion.
With reference to European criticism Of
Commodore Watson's projected cruise to
the Spanish coasts, the article repeats the
already avowed conviction of the Times
that the policy of the United States will not
be modified thereby. The writer compli-
ments Admiral Dewey. in regard to the at
titude of Germany at Manila. with having
played difficult game" with conspicuous
ability.

Decline Of the SIX Hat in London.


Another serious blow has been struck the
silk hat in London by the immortal .'busi-
ness man" walking east of st. Pauls
churchyard. not bareheaded, but crowned
with Panama hat. Men who last year
regarded their financial credit bound up in
that glossy stovepipe have broken through
precedent and decided that this exciting
era warrants cooler headgear. But the
Panama must be the right sort. On the
whole it looks at this distance as If both
men and women would eventually dispense
with needful head coverings in public The
advantage Of wearing a tall hat is to bow
with it, but as this form of courtesy is
rapidly declining abroad and gentlemen no
longer lift their hats to ladies. unless they
are royal DANES. why. another summer
may see even the straws routed. Ladies.
too. having abandoned their hats on ali
occasions after p. m. and taken to wear
ing elaborate coiffures. it really looks as
though the restaurant people were going
to be upheld by certain fair and fashiona-
BILE patrons. As far as known. the Princess
of Wales has never dined at a restaurant,
so what she would do under the new con-
ditions Is matter of conjecture. but what
ever Ii was the rest Of the London world
would surely do likewise.

Via Newport News.

CHICKAMAUGA PARK, GA, July a.
Although General James F. Wade assumed
command at Camp Thomas yesterday as
the successor of General Brooke. he has
not yet selected a location for his head
quarters and is debating whether he will
locate on the site of General Brooke's
headquarters near Battlefield station, or
pitch his tent on SnodgrasS hill.
Thus far General Wade has not issued
any orders and, according to Major Almy,
adtutant general, il is the generals pur-
pose to issue as few orders as possible. He
will carry forward the work at the park
without making any significant changes in
the plans as they now exist. preferring that
the work before him shall be well done,
rather than undertake to introduce new
methods.
The only movement In connection with
the Porto Rican expedition was he de-
parture for Newport News OF four batter
les of light artillery. as follows:
Battery A, Of Missouri; Battery A, of IIi-
nois; Battery B. of Pennsylvania, and the
Twenty-seventh Indiana battery. These

ing. marching to Rossville, a distance of
six miles. where they took trains for New
port News via the Cincinnati Southern

batteries had six guns, 100 horses and mules
and from 140 to 175 officers and men.
Battery A, of Missouri, commanded by
Captain F. M. Humboldt. took the cars at
Rossville at o'clock p. M, and left the
city an hour later. This train was COM
posed of twenty cars and carried in addi-
ton to the battery the battalion ambu-
lance company. Major George B. Rodney.

this train.
The Third brigade of the First division.

Thomas and will probably get away to-
morrow or Tuesday. General Wade. 1t was
authoritatlvely stated tonight. received or
ders at late hour this evening to rush
this brigade TO Newport News as promptly
as he could get the necessary cars in posi-
tion. The brigade consists of the First and
Third Kentucky and the Fifth Illinois.
II is the understanding that the First
brigade Of the Second division will be next
TO follow the above brigade. According to
the present plan regiments will continue to
go out as fast as practicable until the First

ton.
The bathing beach was a popular place at
F'airmount yesterday, especially during the

ing, and a swim affords a means OF cooling
off.
