"The other center will be London. The
financial interests there will make the
greatest efforts to secure all the informa-
ton that it Is possible to get quickly by
n liberal expenditure Of money. News
that goes to Madrid will be transferred
to London, and afterward reach New
York by that circuitous route, and reach
here before 1t gets to Washington. No
one can speak positively as to that, how
ever. We have no adequate precedent for
war under the conditions that will OBJ
tain in this one, and the making of elabo-
rate preparations for news gathering
over wires that will not exist more than
a few hours after the declaration Of war
is ridiculous. We are not exploiting our
selves. We get the news, and we get 1t
as soon as it can be got.'
The New York Tribune cannot afford
to rest It's reputation for getting the news
on the record it made in past years. 1t
goes without saying that the Tribune WIKI
be well In the running with its reports OF
coming events should war break out. If
the Tribune could afford to rest satisfied
with laurels won, It has reason to be
proud of its record for news gathering
during the Franco-Prusyian war. Dur
ing the stirring scenes Of 1870 the Trib-
une, in combination with the London
Times, printed series Of war letters that
are considered a model of accurate and
complete war correspondence. The Trib-
une will doubtless sustain the reputation
1t won in the war Of 1870.

future historians has been a subject Of
careful consideration in the office of the
New York Journal. Three yachts COM
prise the Journals fleet. One OF these,
the Buccaneer, has already done service
for the paper. The steam yacht Anita
and the tug Echo will assist as dispatch
boats. The Journals corps Of war cor
respondents will be under the leadership
of Alfred Henry Lewis, formerly the spe-
cial correspondent at Washington. Jas.
Creelman is another man upon whom the
Journal will depend for war news. He
is newspaper man OF wide experience.
Julian Hawthorne, the novelist, whose
letters describing the condition of the re-
concentrates have been a feature OF the
Journals Cuban news, will be employed
on the field staff, and sent to the scene
of a possible conflict Ct the first declara-
tion of war. George Eugene Bryson, who
has been the Journals regular Havana
correspondent, and who was expelled
from Cuba during the Weyler regime,
will have an opportunity to chronicle the
doings of Uncle Sans fighting forces
without fear of the press censor's blue
pencil eliminating the best paragraphs.
Karl Decker, he Of the Cisneros epi-
sode, is one of the Journals special staff
correspondents. If he has his expressed
WISH he will be assigned to penetrate the
interior of Cuba, and by means left to
the cleverness Of a practiced newspaper
man to invent, transfer copy to the jour
nal office in the quickest possible time.
William i. Lewis, who has been the
Journals Albany correspondent, is also
of the list of men who will collect war
news for this paper during troublous
times.
The Journald has the service of large
corps of newspaper illustrators. chief
among whom is Frederic Remington,
whose pictures of western military and
civil life are too we'll known to need des-
crbing. He has already traversed Cuba
for the Journal, and readers of the paper

WHALE STORIES PLENTIFUL
Monsters of the Deep Reported in the
Vicinity of Baltimore

Baltimore. Md.-Whale reports are again
rife, and 1t Is said monster OF the deep
fully thirty feet long, il not longer, is dis
porting himself about in the bay in the
vicinity of Thomas point. All along the
water front almost everyone you meet has
heard of the whale, and 1t is quite certain
he is a big one, but each person who
has heard Of the story has gotten his in
formation in such an indirect way that he
cannot name anyone who has seen the
animal. A dispatch from Annapolis says:
1.-THE fifty-foot whale that was seen off
Hackett's point, in the Chesapeake, Gre
ated CONSERVATION among the mariners of
the bay. Its spoutings could be heard for
miles, and the cavortings of the monster
disturbed the captains of the bay craft so
much that they sought shelter in great
numbers in this harbor. Their fear was
that the bay being muddy from the up
country rains, the whale would not see
them in its mad sport. and would give
them tilt that would capsize them, The
captains of the tugboats shared the gen.
eral alarm, and the bay was resonant with
the sound of screeching whistles, intended
to frighten the big fish from the bulwarks
Of the tugs"

Whale reports have been coming in al
most daily since few weeks ago, when
Captain Woodford of the tug Maude H.,
reported sighting one disporting itself in
the vicinity Of the capes. An oyster boat
captain then went him one better. and re-
ported two whales near the mouth of the
Rappahannock river The officers of the
Donaldson line steamship Kastalia, in port
ten days ago, gave out good whale story
after they had been in port twenty-four
hours, and had had time to look over the
papers. They reported school Of large
dimensions just outside the capes, and a
few days later the captain of a Neptune
line steamer outdid all predecessors by
declaring the "sea literally filled with
whales" along the coast from Boston down
to the capes of the Chesapeake.

HOW WAR NEWS IS TO Be GATHERED
Reporting Under Conditions Entirely NewNava Engagements
to Be Written Up by Eye.Wnesses

Harper's Weekly. At Madrid the Asso-
ciated Press has stationed Walter Neef
chief Of the foreign service. He has es-
tablished a complete service from Mad
rid by way of the French frontier.
Believing that the first and most i'm
portaht fighting would take place in the
vicinity of Havana, Key West has been
made the headquarters Of the war STAFF
Of the New York Press. Henry Tholens,
for several years city editor Of the Press,
Is stationed at Key West, and Is in COM
mand of the war staff. Working with
him as chief f-of-staff, is Vincent s. Cooke,
newspaper man Of long experience. His
chief value at Key West thus far has
been an underground" connection for
getting news from Havana. He is able
to do this by personal acquaintance with
members of the Cuban junta in this
country, whose doings Mr. Cooke report
ed for months before he was sent to Key
West.
To Mr. Tholens will be left absolutely
the assignment Of the members of the
staff along the southern seaboard. For
getting the news quickly and in the most
accurate manner, carte blanche in the
matter Of expense has been given to him.
He can hire a foreign warship, If he
thinks best, from which to winess the

A war such as that between the United

Theories are to be practically tested. It
will be proven by actual experience
whether or not the modern methods Of
destruction In warfare are all that Is
claimed for them, or whether science has
overshot the mark, and, by the use of
too much mechanism, made the outcome
of a combat altogether different from
what was intended There are scarcely
any precedents to guide us in war.

Lee and Grant at Havana

If General Lee goes back to Cuba at the
head of the army of invasion let Colonel
F. D. Grant go along as second in com.
mand. The suggestion may not be the
best military policy. but it is magnificent.
and would make Yank and Johnnie howl
