London, March 18.-The event of the
week has undoubtedly been the debut
here Of Mr.. Joseph Choate, the United
States ambassador, as a public speaker
at the recent banquets of the Associa-
ton of Chambers of Commerce of the
United Kingdom. While his speech
has been much admired as straight ut
terances from a self-respecting nation,
there is a tinge Of disappointment in
many quarters. Thus, Mr.. David
Christie Murray, the novelist and edi-
tor of the London Morning, writes:
1--WE have had the intellectual and
spiritual best of America with us for
many years; but, WE have not had the
mass of Americans with us and we had
no right to expect them. The feeling
still exists in millions of minds in the
United States that we are guided sole
ly by our selfish interests, and it is in
Difference to this feeling that the new
ly appointed ambassador, in his maiden
speech, treads warily along the bril-
liantly expressed generalities about
friendship and safeguards himself by
one or two declarations which are IN
mistakably intended to prove that
Americas friendship for England is in
nowise of the self-sacrificing order.
Mr.. Choate was as genial as could be
desired, and at the same time he was
most admirably deXterous. 1t is a
pity he should feel it necessary to be
dexterous; but, we must take what we
can get in the way of friendship and
confidence from America and be thank
full that we can still look forward to
the time when Americans will univers-
ally recognize the basis of our desire
for an actual binding union with them
selves"
At the same time Mr.. Choate is be-
ing feted by the Chambers of Com
merce. The commander in chief,
GENERAL LORD WOLSELEY,
speaking before the Institution of Civil
Engineers during the week, made a
very cordial reference to the United
States. He said:

Dear Sir-One Of my girls found the in

from DR.. James s. Burns, now Of the

me that some OF the Barnet letters which
were round contained the same silver crest
as appears on the letter from Molineux

The inclosed was a small sheet of let
ter paper. blush in color and having a
silver crescent at the top. On it was
written
Mr. James Burns. $50 Columbus Avenue.

for which send remedy and oblige. Yours
truly, ROLAND Il. MOLINEUX,
Jersey Street, Newark, N. J.
This letter was received at station D
in this city at 4:30 p. m. on June last.
Captain McClusky says that the letter
is an important link in the chain of ev-
idence, as it gives the prosecution a
sample of the accused mans undis-
guised handwriting. The blue letter pa
per bearing the silver crescent is also
important in view of the fact that the
requests for powders received by the
Kutnow people were written on the
same kind of paper.
Justice Pardon c. Williams, at Wa
tertown, N. Y, has dismissed the in
dictment against Roland Burnham Mol |
ineux which charges him with the muir |
der of Mrs. Adams. The decision is up |
on the grounds that improper evidence |
was submitted to the grand jury. At
