ZoBA's HEROIC ATTITUDE.

Emile Zola has taken his place among
the heroes of France inscnsiblc of the
fact. Tomorrow he will take his place
among her martyrs. His fame as a
novelist will be ovcrsha lowed in his
tory by his sacrifice on the altar of
patriotism. The name Of Zola, once
tossed upon the surface of the sea of
literature. will yet serve to recall a
man who cast himself. like another
Winkelried, against the spears of cal
umny and oppression in an effort to
save his country from itself. Whether
that day will witness French re-
public or an empire ruled by absolut-
ism and the sword. who can say?

TWO DISTINCT BRANCHES.
Cabinet Divided SO MS to Avoid All
Possible Friction ma FnciIitntc
Itlsa

Washington, March 8, 1898.
The developments at the State, War
and Navy Departments in connection
with the Spanish situation have di-
vided themselves into two distinct
branches, one relating to the Maine
court of inquiry and the other the natu-
raj and necessary steps to place the
naval and military arms of the service
on an efficient basis. Concerning the
court and its work, the information
reaching the authorities here is of the
most fragmentary character. and the
highest naval officials reiterate that
nothing is Al hand TO indica ~ even the
tendencies OF the members of the court
from the evidence they have thus far
received.
The other general branch of the sub
jet. the activity in the various naval
and military bureaus, continues with
out reference to the work of the court
of inquiry. This activity UP 20 the pres
ent time has not taken the form of any
concerted Or elaborate plan of emer-
gcncy preparations. but has been mani
fest mainly through comparatively mi
NOR acts, which, taken together, have
shown that the heads Of departments
were not inactive in preparing their
branches of tho service FOR any require
ments which it was possible might be
made upon them.
a member OF the Cabinet stated to-
day that there should be no misundcr
standing or misconstrnction Of these
steps. For instance. all Of the mani
fold movements, particularly in the
West, of war material are declared sim
ply to be in execution of plans long ago
developed by the Fortiiications Board
for the defense of the coast.
There is no cCncealment of the fact
however, that the administration is i'm
pressed with n. sense OF duty in putting
the two war branches iii the highest
stale CT efficacy TO meet any cmergcn-
cy. There is no disposition to antici-
Fate an emergency or to say that anS
situation will Develop which will call
into use the preparation now on fjot.

AROUSED GREAT INTEREST.

News Of the Fall of Manila, However,
Was Not Unexpscted.
WASHINGTON, Aug. l6. The infor-
nation contained in Consul Wildman's
brief message aroused intense interest
but created no surprise among those
officials who received it. For two or
three days news of the fall Of Manila
has been expected. The latest dis
patches received from Admiral Dewey
and General Merritt indicated that it
was the intention to force a surrender
of the city as soon as possible. It is
supposed they Joined in a note demand
ing the surrender Of Manila, threaten.
ing to make a combined sea and land
attack upon the city unless the de-.
mand was acceded to. Although no
further information has been received
except that contained in
Consul wildman's Dispatch
By the administration, it was con.
6rmed in part by the receipt Of a brief
dispatch from Madrid. II. the report
OF General Anguish is true. and its &C.
curacy is not doubted here, official dis
patches will be received by the govern.
eminent in . day or two at least.

Manila created some amusement here
among officials. As one of them ex.
