Lost DOC Insurance.

A new kind of insurance is that of
lost, strayed, stolen or impounded
dogs. The dog insurance company
registers the dog to be insured, with its
full description, and provides tag of
the insurance company bearing the
number by which it is registered. which
tag must be constantly worn. together
with its city license tag.
The insurance company keeps man
at each pound to release any dog bear
ing a tag of the company and return it
to its owner. This is a great conven-
fence to the owners of valuable pets,
and saves the dogs from contracting
the diseases which are SO numerous
and contagious in such place. It also
saves both dog and owner much misery
and anxiety, to say nothing of the ex-
pense and tiresome red tape which are
necessary to release dog from the
pound.
Detectives are regularly employed by
the company to trace any dog the mo-
ment it is reported missing.
Every person pledges himself to re-
mort to the association any dog which
be hnds wandering about apparently
lost and bearing tag Of the company

DEWEY'S SELF-RESTRAINT.

London. July 15.-"The Times" says editori-
ally this morning: 1T is not difficult to read
between the lines in Admiral Dewey's studi-
ously moderate dispatch. that tn" German
policy at Manila came rather perilously near
producing complications OF an exceedingly un-
toward kind He certainly appears to deserve
that thanks be rendered him by his Government
for the self-restraint which Re exercised under
circumstances which at least bore the appear
ance Of provOcation.
1T remains to lie seen what view the German
Government will take Of the action OF the Irene.
Though no diplomatic action may be taken at
Washington, the American people Will not be
sloy 10 draw the conclusions which are only
TOO plainly suggested by the language Of the
German press.
1.-THE German defence that the Irene acted In
the cause of humanity may serve to gloss over
a rather dsagreeable incident. yet the world
cannot forget that Germany has not on other
occasions showed herself to be powerfully
swayed by humanitarian motives and that rea-
sons of very different nature were originally
assigned for the presence OF her ships at

POWERS AND THE PHILIPPINES

sources % Information. a dispatch in which he
says the European Chancellor!es are now dis
cussing the question OF the eventual Intervention
Of the Powers in the Philippine Islands. The
Ambassadors at Berlin. the correspondent ADDS.
have advised their governments respecting Ger
manys line Of policy which seems quite set
tied
Germany would prefer the maintenance OF the
statu quo. but II. a. a consequence Of the war.
Spanish sovereignty disappeared. American SOW
ereignty must not be It's successor. An interna-
tional agreement. the "Matin" correspondent
further asserts. will be established and the
Powers interested In the Islands would each be
called on 10 protect its own interests. The cor
respondent adds:
This is the logical outcome Of the Monroe
Doctrine. the principle Of which will be em-
ployed by Europe IN order to protect itself
against American interference. and. unless APP
pearances are deceptive. Great Britain. in spite
Of the talked-of Anglo Saxon alliance. will do
the same the other Powers"

THE PHILIPPINE SITUATION.
IRENE STORY NOT ALL TOLD.
INCIDENT OF GERMAN INTERFERENCE
MORE SERIOUS THAN AT flRST
APPEARED.

,ordon. July 15-"The Daily Nails Hong
vo,g correspondent cables that II is now
,..own here that Admiral Dewey ordered the
.--esnondents at Manila not TO give the full
-,orv o, the Irene incident for fear Of arousing
..o,,ro IN America, which might lead 70 COM
rl,cations with Germany.
when the full details are known says the
.o~-ssnondent ut will be that the incident
nos more serious than It at first appeared TO
80 As soon as the American ship came on the
sos,a ~ action in Subic Bay the Irene slipped
her cable. leaving her anchor in the bay.
The American Consul. Wildman. refuses to
cav more than this. taking the same line Of
norcy as Admiral Dewey.
1T is believed by those who know Admiral
I,avev that on the arrival of the monitors Mon
terev and Monadnock he will insist upon his
barbor regulations being carried out to the
letter.
THE opinion among the foreigners at Manila
,s that the Americans will never forgive the
Germans for their meddlesome attitude in the
Pbjlippines 1t will not only hurt German trade
with America but will also effectually destroy
all OF Germanys chances OF having any say or
influence in the disposal OF the Philippines II

GROWING FEELING FORPEACE
BELIEF THAT SPAIN ONLY DESIRES AU-
THENTIC INFORMATION AS TO WHAT
AMERICA WILL DEMAND.

London. July 15.-The Madrid correspondent
Of The Times says:
The feeling for peace Is growing daily espe-
cially IN commercial circles. The Chamber Of
Commerce has received kilograms in this sense
from Cadz. Vigo and other towns. 1t must not
be supposed however. that the desire is for
peace at any price.
Peace with honor and without great terri
toria sacrifices more accurately describes the
movement. Inordinate demands might easily
arouse the warlike spirit OF the people to such
extent that the Government would be COM
PEELED to swim with the current. regardless Of
consequences. The Government itself main
tains the greatest reserve.
Il believe that Duke Almadovar de Rio. the
Foreign Minister only desires authentic in
formation OF what the American Government
intends to demand In the way of territorial con-
cessions There are various channels by which
this might be privately ascertained without en-
blowing the good Offices Of any foreign Govern
ment.
For example 1t is no secret that in one or
two European capitals the Spanish and Ameri-
car representatives have remained on friendly
terms. Whatever channels 1t employs, the re-
suit will have great influence 1t must seriously
affect the attitude OF the Spanish Government,
because. however desrous Ministers may be 10
spare their country further sacrifices. there are
certain concessions sugge ested in the American
press which public opinion would not allow
them to make.
SPANS colonial empire may he diminished In
area but It must not be destroyed. The ques-
ton of pecuniary indemnity has not yet occu-
pied public opinion in this country.
Some persons who are supposed to be well
acquainted with official and unofficial public
opinion In the United States declare that Pres'-
dent Mckinley Will be very moderate IN his
demands but his insisting upon the uncondl-
tional surrender OF the garrison OF Santiago
does not seem TO indicate conciliatory spirit
The manner in which the first advances on
the part Of Spain met will have great In
fuence on the subsequent course Of events be-
cause the Spaniards. who are themselves mos;
courteous people. are inordinately sensitive
about matters OF form 10 which more practical
nations are comparatively Indifferent"
