Secretary Long in the above opinion.
1t was said, with some degree of in
dignation, that Admiral Dewey would
hardly ask that a battleship of the
Oregon's proportions be dragged 5000
miles across the Pacific merely to pro-
vide luxurious quarters for the Ameri-
can Commissioners, or to impress a
handful of German marines with the
might Of this government. The general
opinion expressed was that Admiral
Dewey, in sending his dispatch, had in
view much more serious business
If the dispatch assigning political
reasons" for desiring the presence of
the Oregon had been received from
some one less careful in his choice of
words and forms of expression than
Dewey the same Importance might not
be attached to it. But Admiral Dewey
is diplomat and ar-sighted, and his
dispatches have all been remarkable for
their directness and their discrimina-
ton in the use of words and phrases.
The use of the phrase for political
reasons" coming from him is regarded
as surely bearing all the significance
that the most careful use Of the words
could imply.
In Congressional circles the opinion
is almost universal that the dispatch
cannot relate TO anything but an inter
national phase of the Philippine situ-
alton. 1t is felt it does not necessarily
follow that any foreign complication is
actually at hand, though even that
might be inferred, but it is thought
rather, that Dewey sees danger ahead
and desires TO guard against it and to
prevent the development of serious
crisis.
1t is not thought among men abreast
of the situation that either the Presi-
dent or the administration officials be-
lieve in the explanation of the dispatch
which they want the public to accept.
The censored press dispatch announc-
ing the meeting of foreign Consuls at
Manila, with the exception of the Brit
ish Consul, and that British sailors
have permission to land every evening
for the purpose '-of wetting down the.
Consulate and banks" is regarded as
peculiarly significant, and is thought
to furnish a key for the Interpretation
of the Dewey dispatch. although the Of
ficials say they have not been advised
that the Consuls did meet.
The disposition in well-inforlned
Congressional circles is to look upon
the situation as threatening, if not ac-
tually serious.

tions of American meat products to one
general inspection had led the authori-
ties to hope that beginning made in
the way of establishing friendly COM
merciaI relations with the German EN-
pire had been made, but the declara-
ton of Prince Radziwill shows clearly
that Germany is still bent on injuring
the trade Of the American nation, and
finding that it is impossible to do it her
self she is now bidding on a European
alliance to accomplish the result she
desires.
No apprehension exists that her ef-
forts will be successful In some quar-
ters there is a disposition to believe
that Prince Radziwill spoke with
out authority, and 1t is highly proba-
BILE that inquiry will be made to ascer-
tain If his sentiments are indorsed by
the German Emperor.

Special Cable to The Call and the New
York Herald. Copyrighted, 1883, by
James Gordon Bennett.
BERLIN, Feb. 25.-Much at
tention but small credit is given
to a special dispatch from Lon
don, published in this evenings
Vossische Zeitung, that according
to the New York information of
the Morning Leader the Wash
ington Government has received
a cipher dispatch in which Ad-
miral Dewey states that Admiral
Won Deidrich having taken steps
to land a detachment of marines
from the cruiser Irene to protect
German interests, the American
admiral replied that If he carried
the proposal into execution he
would blow up her pinnace."
Admiral Won Deidrich having,
since the events of the late war,
received a communication from
home to the effect that had he
been more diplomatic in his con-
duct his services would have
been more appreciated. and also
having knowledge that his gov
ernment has stated. by the Min
ister of Foreign Affairs, as first
announced in the Herald and
subsequently in the Reichstag,
that it has no wish to hinder the
United States in any way in the
Philippines, the suggestion of his
having made trouble is not cred
tied. Should he have done so he
will undoubtedly suffer.

DUKE OF ORLEANS

NEW YORK. Feb. 25.-A cable to the
Sun from London says: A Central
News dispatch from Brussels says the
Duke of Orleans started this evening
for Turin, where he will remain. for
some time, ~oing thence TO the Riviera
before returning to England with the
Duchess. The dispatch says that the
Duke has abandoned all hope of an i'm
mediate movement in France to over

i ! the German cruiser kalser1n Au-
gusta at Manila to-day, and the
reports Of flibustering expeditions from
Japan in the interest of Aguinaldo,
there is a well defined suspicion in the
public mind here that the political
reasons of Admiral Dewey for desir-
ing the Oregon must be interpreted in
the broadest sense that her presence is
desired as much for moral effect in pre-
venting foreign interference as in
bringing the insurgents to terms.
The anxiety of the officials has
reached such point there is no fur
ther doubt that Rear Admiral Dewey
will be asked to submit an explanation.
The statement that Admiral Dewey's
dispatch came in open English is an
error. The department received from
him yesterday one relating to the ar
rival Of the Yorktown, which was in
plain English, and the other relative to
the Oregon, which was in the navy
cipher. 1t was not intended that this
dispatch should have been given pub
Icity, but in the haste Of preparation
of matter TO go before the Cabinet it
escaped close scrutiny on the part of
Secretary Long and was permitted to
reach the press along with other cur
rent routine dispatches.
It was pointed out that this Govern
ment has an ample force at Manila to

they never had better friends.
Monday, of this week, Mrs. Robert

good friend Sizer will have season
of much enjoyment as he grasps the
hands and sits around the camp fires
telling yarns among his former COM
rades.
