atlOn Is Improving.
LONDON, Nov Am official note, issued
last evening, says: There is now good rea-
son to hope that the political situation is
ameliorating. 1t can be confidently stated
that when the cause of the irritation which
unfortunately existed in France and Great
Britain on the upper Nile question is re-
moved, which is expected soon to be the
case, the door will again be opened for
resumption Of those friendly negotiations
which happily characterize the normal state
of the relations between the two countries"
The most reliable information from Paris
confirms the earlier reports that M. Dupuy,
the premier, has decided to wash his hands
of Fashoda and recall Major Marchand for
whose mission he is not responsible This
decision is to some extent due to desire to
allow nothing to interfere with the success
of the exposition in 1900.
To-day will be important in the history of
the crisis. 1t is expected that Baron De
Courcel, the French ambassador, will inn
part the French decision to Lord Salisbury.

to be given the sirdar, General Lord
Kitchener. probably the premier's text will
be the official note issued last evening an

hope the political situation is ameliorating
Still further light should be thrown by the
reopening of the French Chambers. Not
withstanding the peaceful aspects of the sit
uation, M. Goschen's letter to the master
cutters at Sheffield has made very pro-
found impression.
The Daily Chronicle, under reserve, pub
fishes remarkable story, suggesting that
the sirdar captured documents proving that
Major Marchand, before the battle of Om-
durman, sent to the Khalifa French flag,
advising him to hoist it, and so, by becom-
ing a French ally, to deter the Anglo
Egyptian forces from attacking him.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. "A morn
ing paper publishes the following: 1.-The
probability of a war between England and
France received fresh impetus here yester-
day by the action of England, which pur-
chased a large amount of coal for imme-
date delivery at her West Indian naval
stations. In response to hurried cablegrams
from London ship brokers engaged in the
West India trade spent the greater part of
yesterday searching for tonnage suitable
to transport the coal from Philadelphia and
Newport News to points where it would be
most convenient for English war craft to fill
their bunkers. Sailing vessels from 800 to
1000 tons carrying capacity are particu-
larly in demand. The first shipments are
to be sent to Kingston, to be followed by
vessels for Bermuda, st. Lucia and Deme-
rara, which are the principal ports in the
West Indies subject to Great Britain 1t
is also proposed to discharge a part of the
purchase at st. Thomas. a Danish island,
where hulks will be used.
1T was reported yesterday that two Brit
ish war ships had been ordered here to un-
dergo slight repairs. which under ordinary
circumstances would have been made at
either Halifax or the Bermuda islands,"

The Times Shanghai correspondent
telegraphs: "On the arrival of Kag
Yu Wei at WI Sung he was placed for
safety on board the steamer Ballarat,
which sails for Hong Kong to-day. In
the course of an interview he informed
me that he left Pekin on Tuesday, in
compliance with secret message from
the emperor warning him of his dan
ger, and urging him to obtain assist
ance from those interested in the
country's welfare
He further stated that recent events
were entirely due to the action of the
Manchu party, headed by the dowager
empire SIS and Viceroy Yung Lu, and in
Guiding all the high Manchu officials.
The latter were displcased by the en-
peror's leaning toward the reform
party and decided to restore the re.
gency of the dowager. The dowager
empress party is bound by an under
standing with the Russians whereby
the latter, in consideration of the
support of the Russian interests, I'M

Kang Yu Wei urges that England
now has an opportunity to intervene
and restore the emperor to the throne,
by doing which, he asserts, she will
earn the gratitude of the Chinese
people.
A special dispatch from Shanghai
says that Kang Yu Wells brother has
been arrested in Pekin and condemned
to death. The dispatch also says that
Sir Claude Macdonald, the British
minister, gave instructions that Kang
Yu Wei should be protected from
arrest.
The British consulate holds his bag
gage and documents referring to state
secrets. The Russians are iucensed at
the latter fact, and it is reported that
Russia has offered the dowager en-

Port Arthur to keep order in Pekin if
necessary.
1t is stated that the British fleet in
Chinese waters has been divided be-
tween Ia Ku and Shan Hal Kwan, un-

jim REDMOND.

The Pacific Express company de-
clares it lost nothing except smashed
express matter.
Kennedy is the individual who has
been charged with a number of train
robberies, and who is now out on bond
to answer to the charge of robbing and
numbering Miss Emma Schumacher,
keeper of a grocery.
jim Redmond is the individual sup
posed to have been Kennedys pal in
the Schumacher case. Redmond
escaped, joined Roosevelt's rough rid
ers, and went to Cuba. After his re-
turn an attempt was made to capture
him, but the police moved so slowly
that he got wind of it, and again
escaped.
Kennedy has bobbed up with his
usual alibi He had been at his
fathers house all night, he said, and
had witnesses to prove it. Alibis are
easily obtained in the vicinity of Ken
hedy's home, 10 train robbing is
an honored profession.
A singular feature of the case is that
none of the robbers were injured by
the explosion, which utterly demol-
lshed the express car. They were less
than fifty feet away. Another singu-
lar feature is that during the many
months of John Kennedy's confne-
ment in the county Jail there was not
q single train robbery here, and with
In two weeks of his release a train
was robbed within few miles of his
home. Kennedy has not been ar
rested, and probably will not be.
There is no evidence against him that
would stick in any court.
