the possibilit y of War between the
United States and Spain there has
been great deal of speculation in
Washington as to the attitude likely
TO be assumed by other European
powers, and especially by Great
Britain, says the Herald's Washing
ton correspondent. Though there is
no probability that Great Britain
would be actively drawn into such a
war in any way, it is now generally
conceded the United States would have
her moral support and sympathy.
News of the Maine disaster was re-
ceived in Great Britain with almost as
much horror as in the United States.
1t was noted at the time that The first
expression of sympathy received at
the state department was from Sir
Julian Pauncefote, the British am
bassador, who without waiting to learn
whether the Spanish government was
involved, called in person at the state
department. his was followed by
messages from the queen, the Prince
Of Wales and many high officials of the
/ my and navy.

Decorations and Orders.

"Whar is the difference" asked a cor
respondent, apropos of Ii Hung Chang's
Journey to Europe, between yellow
jacket, button, or peacock's feather,
On the one hand, and thistle, bath, or
q garter, on the other? Why do we Law
ish so much ridicule on the Importance
attached to the first set of emblems by
the Chinese when we ourselves set just
as much store by the second set@'
There is much force in these questions,
and commend them to the attention of
the wags in the press who are always
poking fun at Ii Hung Chang's yellow
jacket and peacock's feathers. Look
ing at the matter impartially, it seems
to me that y yellow jacket, or glass
button, or a peacock's feather is more
suitable for decorative purposes than
either bath or a garter-I do not say
thistle, becaIse no doubt that is an OBJ
iect highly appropriate to many of
those on whom it has been conferred

Spain is Buying Two New war-ships In

LONDON, March 4 4-Spain has pur-
| chased two cruisers which the Arm
strongs have been building for orazil,
the Amazonus and her sister ship, the
Unnamed, of 1000 tons each. % knots
and 10 guns. Spain is also negotitat-

cruisers of similar t-pe which have
been building in France for Brazil.
The Amazonusiis ready for launching.
and her sister ship will soon be ready.
The Spanish sgoyernmentl is also en-.
deavoring to secure guns and large
supplies of ammunition in England
and the Continent for immediate use:
The Cover nment of Spain seems to
have funds, for it is understood to be
paying large part of the purchase
money in cash, giving good security
for the balance, these being the only
terms upon which the Armstrong;
would deal. Some weeks ago Spain
attempted to purchase ships and sup
plies in England on credit from promi
nent firms having close relations with
the gnvrtnment, put after inquiries
the firms refused her credit. Since
then Spain has raised funds from un-
known sources. Diplomats in London
express the opinion that French finan-
ciers are helping the Spanish govern
ment.

~ WEARING FALSE GEMS.

shams Now Freely Tolerated I'm So
E ciety.
How much is real and how much Is
sham in the resplendentdisplay of pre-
sumably precious stones at the opera or
other smart functions is impossible to
tell nowadays, for my lady mixes the
two together with calm audacity that
is development of late years, the old
theory that a lady must wear nothing
that is not real being apparently quite
out of date. The modern adaptation of
this social rule is that if woman has a
certain amount of fine jewelry she may
wear as many false ones in addition as
she can without making the fact con-
spicuous. 1t is only in those who have
no real ones that the display of false
gems is vulgar.
A fashionable woman in town, whose
position is unquestionable, wears sew
eral strings of pearls, one of which is
real and the rest shams, and hardly
knows herself which is the genuine
Another woman, who owns a couple of
diamond stars, has presented herself
with several others-the best "bril-
liants," whose glittering radiance is
quite undimmed by their juxtaposition
with the real stones. At birthday
dinner recently the heroine of the oc-
casion wore a ruby surrounded by
pearls asa brooch. This was greatly
admired. Taking it from the lace
which it fastened, she passed it to one
of her friends. The jewel was handed
from one to another until it had made
the circuit of the table. All the guests
were people of culture, familiar with
gems, and some of them were con-
noisseurs. After the stone had been
unanimously praised theowner fastened
it in its place again, saying quietly: "I
think it is pretty. 1 bought it yester-
day at BIS for two dollars"
1t has long been conceded that
string of Roman pearls may be worn by
young girl without laying her taste
open to question. 1t is a new thing,
however, for rich women to bring real
gems and bogus ones together in such
way as TO deceive the very elect and
it seems pity that the old standards of
noblesse oblige, affecting the wearing
of jewels and lace, should be lowered.
1t is claimed by those who wear false
jewels that no deception is intended,
the owner being quite willing to ac-
knowledge her use of the limitations,
but at all events the general public is
deceived and it may be questioned
whether my lady goes out of her way to
acknowledge what she is wearing.
81 do not see the use of wearing real
pearls" said a well-known society
woman not long ago. 81 have half q
mind to sell mine and wear limitations.
No one would ever know" Then she
fully concluded to take this course and
did take it. Hence she rejoices in the
income of $4,000 in bonds. wears pearls
still and even her intimate friends do
not suspect the exchange.-N. Y. Trib-

NEW YORK, March A special 10
the Herald from San Jose, Costa Rica,
indicates that war between Costa

The situatienis really grave. Troops

of Walkers tine to the beardless
youth of the present day.
A corps of 1000 volunteers left San

like spirit until last September, when
the first war clouds arose in the
arrest in Nicaragua of Consul General
Behre, of Costa Rica. Costa Rica
then had less than 1000 men under
arms. Now she has nearly 5000.

NEW YORK, March A dispatch
to the Tribune from Havana says:
The leading facts of the Maine dis
aster are all Low in the possession OF

absence of the hoard at Key West.
They have discovered nothing to
change the evidence gathered. which
showed apparently that the explosion
was external. Their examination this
week has EXTENDED alongside the
plates, and they have penetrated for
ward well into the how. All they find
is merely conflrmatory of what was
previously discovered.
Captain Sampson and his associates
were especially anxious 10 await fur
ther work by the divers to determine
whether Snr not mistakes had been
made in auv= particular. Nothing has
been found to indicate mistake. On
the contrary, the more thoroughly the
hull is examin ed the more convincing
appears the original evidences of ex-
plosion from without. How long the
board will take to formulate it's con-
illusions on this point can be better
judged in Washington than in Ha-

THE DEMAND WITHDRAWN.
Spain Will Not Further Insist on the Re
call of Lee.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March T.
Spain has withrawn her request foI
recall of Consul-General Lee, and it is
believed the incident is practically
closed. The withdrawal came today
in the shape of an official communica
tion from Minister Woodford. 1t is
stated that the request vas never put
in the shape Cf a demand, but was
merely suggestion on the part OF
Spain, and when she found itwould
not be pleasantly received by this
country she promptly recalled it.
is learned that the spanish OBJ
jection to Consul Gen, raj Lee is based
largely upon his sympathy for the
Cubans and some of his utterances
which have'found their way into print
II is understood the Spaniards also
take exceptions to the friendly rela-
tions and cornpanionship existing be-
tween Lee and the correspondents OF
papers which have been decidedly un-
friendly to Spain.

formation calculated to make the
Spanish government request the recall
