I,aiy,s Demand on China.

Italy demanded of the Chinese govern
ment recently concession of San Nun
bay. The intention was to make it ma
val base and coaling station. The Lung
Ii Yanen refused to grant the demand
and the terms of the reply were so caustic
as to arouse much feeling. The Chinese
government has offered to send written
apology.
Not only did Italy endeavor to ascertain
what attitude would be assumed by the
United States in case of the formers occu-
patton of Chinese territory, but she actually
asked this government 70 support her pre-
tensions.
The startling proposition greatly aston
ished the administration. Never before
had the United States been consulted by
any European power relative to its seizure
of Chinese territory, But the note of the
Italian representative is considered by the
authorities as a formal recognition of the
new position in international affairs which
the United States has assumed as a result
OF the war with Spain, and of the i'm
mensity of the commercial interests of this
government in Asia.
Secretary Hays reply was brief and suf.
ficiently plain to show Italy just how this
government felt. 1t distinctly and I'M
equivocally refused to support the Italian
government, and stated that the United
States had never supported or interfered
in any way with the efforts of other gov
ernments to obtain territory and spheres
of influence in China, and would most GER
tainly not do so in the case of Italy. The
tone Of the note was deprecatory of Italy
intention, but no formal protest was made,
and from present indications none will be.
Secretary Hay authorized the statement
Wednesday that our government has nc
intention of participating in any scheme to
partition China If such is entertained by
foreign powers, and that it sees no reason
for changing the policy it has long followed
in regard to the Chinese empire.

The Methods of the investigation.
from the Boston Advertiser

Most American citizens, who look at
this matter with decent impartiality and
tolerable sense, think that the proper bust
ness of the three gentlemen selected from
the officers in the army to investigate the
army beef question is to take testimony
until they are satisfied of the fact, of
which proof is so abundant and over
whelmiDg, that good deal of the army
beef was bad in Cuba and Porto Rico
and then to try to find out what the mat
ter was, how such beef came to be fur
nished the soldiers, whether it was the
climate or an accident, or bad manage
ment and neglect in camp, or criminal
fraud; and if criminal fraud who the GRIM
inals are.
Buying cans of beef sin open market, "
in New York or Chicago or elsewhere in
this part Of the world, and making a stew
of it, and getting soldiers TO eat it, in or
der to cast discredit upon their testimony
that the canned beef which they had
when fighting the Spaniards made them
sick, either before they ate 1t or after
wards, is about as reasonable as it would
have been for the coroner's jury investi-
eating the Adams-C Cornish poisoning case
of New York to send into ''the open mar
ket' and buy bottle of bromo-se settler and
have it tested, on the theory that If it was
found innocuous something else than the
contents of bromo-setzer bottle must
have killed Mrs. Adams.

Riley. Opinion of KipiIng.

In recent interview, James Whitcomb
Riley, the poet of the plain people, whose
writings, in some subtle way, sweep our
heartstrings, said of Rudyard Kipling: "a
lot of fellows, who know nothing of Kip
ling's early history, think that he just did
it,-that he just happened. But that fell
low was hustling around newspaper offices
from the time he was IS years old. Born
and brought up among a strange people,
with queer customs, he was for years gath
ering material for his work. He has the
greatest curiosity of any man ever knew
everything interests him. In fact, he is a
regular literary blotting-pad, coaking up
everything on the face of the earth. Who
before Kipling ever gave us animal talk?
lEsops Fables we're kindergarten talk
compared with his. | think he is one Of
the greatest writer's we ever had. Think
of a man only 92 years old, who has given
TO the world eleven volumes of prose and
verse; He has only just started. Anoth-
er thing, read him from beginning TO end,
study him, become as familiar with his
work as you will, every new bit from him
displays some trait, some line of thought
that is new. That man is great.

LATE NEWS.


Secretary Long of the navy department
has no official information as to the al
legged breaking down of the health of Ad-
miral Dewey. Private reports through
neval officers who have returned from Ma
Mia say that the Admiraps health is much
the same as for year past
1t is not denied by these officers that the
Admiral has aged in his appearance nota-
bly, within the past year; his hair is un-
doubleday whittier and his figure 'hows
signs of that weakness which might be eX
pected to come with advancing years.
Dewey will be 81 years old next December,
and for many years has not been a strong
man physically. 1t is said by persons ia
miliar with the Philippine climate that the
second year is hardest to bear for Cauca-
sian, and Dewey soon will begin his second
year there. In addition to this, he labors
under the drawback of having undergone a
most severe surgical operation for the re-
lief of his liver. A man needs a sound
liver in the Philippines of all places.
Sometime ago the President feared that
the great strain he was under might over
tax him, so he cabled Dewey, through Sec
rotary Long, permission to return to the
United States. The Admiral declined to
avail himself of this permission and asked
to stay, saying that in his opinion duty re-
quired that he should finish the task he
had begun at Manila.
The President accepted this statement,
and Dewey remains by his own wish. He
is free to return to the United States
whenever he cares to do so, and the de-
partment will relieve him by cabled orders.
In that case Capt. n. II. Dyer, the com
mander of the Baltimore, who is the senior
captain on the Asiatic station, would have
command of the American squadron tenn
porarily.

New Hampshire Legislative
Matters

OF Local Interest--ChHrter Granted for
Railway Company.
The New Hampshire legislature, which
voted Wednesday to come to a final adj
iournment tomorrow noon, passed last
week the bill granting charter to the
North Walpole e. Acworth Street Railway
company, and it has this week been
signed by the governor and become law.
1t was not thought wise to push the mat
ter of reaching Sunapee because of the
certain opposition of the Boston IL Maine
Railroad company. The charter permits
building between North Walpole and any
point in Acworth, through the towns of
Alstead and Langdon. 1t is controlled by
residents of North Walpole.
The bill to incorporate the North Wal
pole Electric Light and Power company,
the company owning the water power at
Drewsville, has been opposed by personal
opponents of Senator Thomas Nelson
Hastings who introduced it, and on We'd
nesday it was doubtful If the bill passed.
The objection raised was that it embraced
certain rights of eminent domain affect
ing flowage rights between the villages of
Drewsville and Alstead.
Inc Dill 10 Tree Jne connecticut river
toll bridge at this place was killed in the
committee on appropriations on account
of the size of the appropriations asked for.
A matter of much interest locally is the
development at Concord, during the ses-
sion, of boom for Senator Hastings of
Walpole as the next governor of New
Hampshire. His name is the only one at
present discussed in political circles in
Concord, and indications point to his Sc
lection as the Republican candidate
though but little has been said of it in the
nearby section of the state. By virtue OF
his present position as president of the
senate he is lieutenant governor at the
present time, and has made very able and
popular presiding officer.
