PERU 70 BUY WARSHIPS
SINISTER PURPOSE SAID TO DE BE-
HIND THE MOVE
IL Is Hinted That the south Ameri-
can Republic Expects Trouble
with the United Stntes and Is
Preparing Her Navy.

New York, Aug. 2-Tbe Panama steam
or Advance reached this port yesterday
with Commodore Carlos Fenyros of the
Peruvian navy, who is en- route to Paris
for the purpose. it is said, OF purchasing
warships for the Peruvian navy. Rumors
have been current i'll Panama prior to
July |, those on the Advance sad, when
Commodore Feryros arrived there on the
steamer Santiago from Callao, concern
ing a strong agitation throughout Peru
against the United States, owing to dit
ferences between the two countries, exist
ing since 1885. There was therefore some
significance in the utterance OF President
Pierola at the opening OF the Peruvian
congress at Lima last Thursday, referring
to the issue raised between Peru and the
United States-dating from 1888. Durng
the height of the anti-U United States feel
ing in Peru there was considerable talk
about North America being unable to pro-
tect its Pacific coast line on account of
the Spanish war and that Peruvian DEM
onstration thereabouts might compel the
United States to modify her demands.
1t was also limited that secret agents
had been sent to Europe for the purpose
of purchasing war vessels and that an
important move might be made at an
early day. These rumors were partially
confirmed by Commodore Ferlyros' ad-
mission that he was on his way to Paris
and that the object of his mission to En-
rope was to purchase warships for the
Peruvian government No little excite
ment was caused in Central America
when the information that Peru was tax
ing steps to strengthen her navy became
known.

A correspondent of the New York
Evening Post, writing from China,
notes two remarkable phenomena
which are manifesting themselves in
that country. One is the abandonment
of the immemorial contempt for the
foreigner. The ignorant crowds in Il
village will shout foreign devil" at an
Occidental but among the more intelli-
gent classes there is a growing convic-
ton that they must learn the secret of
Western success. AS one step towards
1t the Goyernment is establishing uni
versities at Pekin, Tien-Tsin and
Shanghai. where the English language
will be taught. There Is also rapidly
increasing sale of Western books and
the Government has even decided to
make questions in Western history and
science Il test for honOrs in the exam
atoms. The other noteworthy fact is
the hospitality shown to the idea of for
eigners taking possession of important
parts of Chinese territory. All of which
shows that new life is fermenting in
the centuries old Chinese Empire to
which the Western world will have to
give heed.

some of their admirers, that they do not
know how to think; and that they gen

young woman will eXclam with aSSur

many a girl has thought herself into a
