The following is from letter writ
ten from Paris by correspondent
of the Italian paper, La Tribuna.
The communication shows that the
French did not in their hearts think
so meanly of American valor and
achievement as their national or
gans about that time led their read
ers to believe. "The Americans"
said LIE Matin, "are still apprentices
in the art of war" Such, however,
was not the view OF an intelligent
French correspondent, when he
wrote the following to his Italian
newspaper:
"PARIs, August 8, 1893 We are pro-
foundry Inundated, as Latins in partic-
ular, and as Europeans in general For
twenty-eight years all the civilized
countries on the Eastern continent, in
course at once foolish and fatal, lavish
millions or more Chose who are able)
to organize their armies and their fleets.
Millions of men are torn away from
work to learn to kill reciprocally, in q
war perhaps that no one wishes and
that no one hopes anything from. They
do as he who ruins himself in accumu-
lating materials to build a house, that
finished may fall on him and crush him.
And here is country Of seventy five
millions of souls, that in normal times
has neither army nor fleet, which inn
provises both in three months and &C
cOmplishes miracles. And note, that
the war finished, soldiers and sailors
will be disbanded and that there will
only remain of so great force the titles
OF Captain or Commodore or of General
on their visiting cards and also small
army of pensioners. Every three or
four years we change our ornaments,
guns, the powder, the models of our
ships, and the Americans s and and
look on! We spend systematically the
nerve and sinew of our fortunes, and
they come in a moment, spend in a
twinkling the twentieth part of what
we spend in twenty years and they sue
coed. And OF what avail is the heroism
of the Spaniards, who have served at
least the worship OF honor, against the
'improvisationT Nothing, because the
Americans 'mprovise' also Generals
and Admirals, and playing their lives
in war like this absolutely as when
they gain, lose and regain fortune in a
coup on the Bourse without lowering an

SUsQUEHANNA, Pa, October % -
When the night express train No. ~,
east-bound, arrived at this station at
midnight last night, the engineer,
Henry Kingsley, of Susquehanna
was found dead in the cab, with his
head badly crushed. After the train
left Binghamton, twenty-three miles
west of here, trainmen and others
noticed that the engineer failed to
give the usual signals at crossings
and at small stations and that the
train was running at unusual speed.
Fireman Cowgirl noticed that the
whistle was not blown for this sta
ton, and going forward into the cab
found the dead engineer.
The train had run at terrific speed
twenty miles without an engineer
There were over 200 passengers or
board. 1t is supposed that the
engineer was hit by a water crane a
point just east of Binghamton.
