was passenger on outgoing steamer Pa
tricia, returning TO his native country, af-
ter serving for two years and half with
the German squadron in the extreme East.
In an interview just before leaving he
praised in fiattering terms the ships of the
American Navy and the men who built
them. AS result of my visits to your
great shipyards, he said, 81 can say that
the new ships now building for the Navy
are among the finest in the world, If they
are not superior to all others, as | am
sometimes inclined to think The reason
for the excellence Of these ships and others
that are ready seek in the intelligence of
your workmen and in the mechanical
genius of the whole nation. Work is ex-
pensive here, but the result is better work
and greater feeling of responsibility on
the part of the workmen, who draw high
wages A secondary result of these condi-
tions is that the workman has both in
eentlve and opportunity to obtain a better
education. I have only praise for the per-
sonnel OF your Navy. The craftsmanship
of the men witnessed at Manila and 1t
was very good, and the officers maintain
good discipline. But the man who stands
ahead of all is Admiral Dewey, whom l

A Genuine Labor Problem.

From the indianapolis News)
The labor problem in this country is getting
to be the problem of finding some one to do
needed work. 1t is rare in the history OF the
country or of any country that there has been
such demand for labor there is now. 1t
tends to every branch of activity. 1t is plainly
seen in Chicago, because OF the sizc OF the city,
and because of the law under which the
State Las established employment bureaus. These
bureaus have more applications for help in al
most every sphere than they can supply. In
the matter OF domestic service 1900 families
have applied. To meet the demand there are 400
women, who in some cases at least. make what
conditions they please. A robust girl of about
twenty-thrce said she ideal domestic,
hut-she would not work in house because the
labor in house harder than it was in a
fat She would not do laundry work, because
ii ought 10 be sent out. She would not for
children unless specially engaged nurse.
She would not work with kitchen range that
burned coal; ii must be gas nothing. She
demanded s. week. What days she wanted
out is not stated.

Who Is the Man.

tFrom the Brooklyn Eagle.)
The Eagle" would like to know who the man
is in hiding behind the personality of ex-Judge
Augustus Van Wyck, and for whom sundry Dem
Qerats of the South and West are putting forth
not undetected efforts. Is il A. P, German of
Maryland? Not very probable is the idea that
a resident of this State, which has so long gone
Republican, is seriously regarded by sane politi,
clans as Democratic candidate for President
Not very probable is the idea that Mr. Van
Wyck, who did not carry the State in 1898. is
regarded or will be regarded as a political
eligibility or desirability in that relation Not
very probable is the idea that any candidate will
be presented by the Democracy to the suffrages
OF the nation, whose nomination would have to
carry with it the overwhelming initiative of a
Tammany Hall handicap. Therefore, who is in
reserve? Who is TO be the beneficiary of the
liberties wantonly being taken with Judge Van
Wyck's name, time, character, claims, and right
What Southerner Westerner is kept back as
the intended heir at the opportune moment of
the natural collapse Of the movement around Mr.
Van Wyck's name? The townsmen of Judge Van
Wyck have a right to know who the man is.

THE ORDEAL OF DREYFUS.

Whether Capt. Dreyfus be innocent Dor guilty he deserves pity. The trial fnow going on at Rennes, again reveals Sall France divided into two bitterly !hostile camps over the celebrated case. RThe man is in such glare of pitiless Publicity as few have ever experienced.
 Every motion he makes, every pose, severy look, are seized upon by friendly
 and hostile journalists to support their
 side of the dispute. The recent attack
 or an attempt to murder his attorney
 shows the spirit ot his adversaries. It
 is reported that the Dreyfusards are de-
 pressed because in hIs manner and
 bearing before his judges the captain
 does not excite more sympathy. His
 voice IS harsh, his head is bald, his eyes
 are "timid," in short, Dreyfus does not khappen to fill the ideal of matinee
 hero of romantic drama. Of course, ;that disappoints dramatic and emo stional people like the French, who
 would fairly revel in such personality

What has mans voice, or the |Ahape of his shoulders, or the color of his eyes to do with his guilt or inno- >cenee2 The only question is whether sDreyfus betrayed his country's military
 secrets. He denies the charges against shim catagorically and emphatically. It is the business of the court to prove the 'charges, or to acquit Dreyfus. Howev- Ier deficient the prisoner may be in the |Qualities that make successful mati- lnee hero of melodrama, his bearing when undergoing the ordeal of exami- nation Monday must have been dramat
 ic enough at times to satisfy even the French appetite for theatrical form and climaxes. His "never, never," and fre- quent "no, my colonel," were given
 with an intensity that cannot be gain said.
 Although Dreyfus is said to be won derIMly successfully in maintaining a calm reserve (for Frenchman) he is
 understood to be in a very weak con- dition of body and mind. If he survives
 the trial without complete collapse it
 will be surprising. For only since his return. to France few weeks ago has
 he learned how the Dreyfus affair has
 stirred the world and driven France into grave political perils, besides arousing
 the bitterest animosities in the army
 between oppo1ing factions. With tsis
 stunning knowledge only recently ac. quired the man again faces his judges.
 It is a position from which every one
 might pray to be saved.
