Saturday Review which recently said
that Chauncey Depew was Il painted
puppet and snob," expresses the view
here below and which candid expression
is being quoted in English financial and
other newspapers averse TO American
interests in Great Britain and to English
interests embarked in this country:
There are, of course, many worthy
private persons in the United States;
but what we have to think Of now are
the people of that country as represented
in their social, civil, and political Gus
toms. Socially it is sordid to the last
degree; its courts of law and all its civil
institutions are corrupt; the methods of
its political parties are no better than
those of long firms. 1t has contributed
nothing to the self-reSpcct of humanity.
On the contrary, it has shown all the
world to what n depth of public de
pravity civilization is capable of de-
scending"

ties.
Washington. d. c.. August 31.-It
cannot be said that Secretary Alger is
Indifferent to many sensational stories
that are printed as to the conditions
that prevail in the great military camps,
for his first interest lies in the welfare
of the individual troops But he said to-
day that with Il full knowledge of the
lack of foundation for most of these he
deprecated such publications, not be-
cause Of fear that the American people
would be mistaken in their understands
ing of the actual facts, but rather from
an apprehension of the evil effect such
publications would produce abroad.
There the people, who with their full
military training knew just what hard
ships must be encountered by troops in
campaign, and especially i'll military
camps and manoeuvers, would regard
with amused surprise the innumerable
complaints that are pouring forth upon
the Government here upon preteXts that
would be disregarded entirely in Eu-
rope, and they could scarcely fail to
gain the impression that the American
people are lacking in soldierly qualities.
