brings details of an ocean tragedy. While
the vessel was at Cornto an open boat con-
tanning the remains of nine men who per-
ished months ago drifted ashore there. The
bodies were horribly emacated and the man
ner in which their limbs were contorted
showed that they must have died in terrible
agony. Not a drop of water and not a
particle Of food was in the boat.
In December last Louis w. Maslen of the
FL Triumfo Pierce, three of the port Off

lCopyrght 1899. by Associated Prcss)
LONDON. April 22.-The news from the
Philippine islands of the retirement Of GEN
eral Lawton from the Santa Cruz district
and the capture of the boats crew of the
United States gunboat Yorktown has made
a considerable impression here and the COM
ments of the press all reflect anxiety lest the
unfavorablc news have discouraging eff
feet upon Americans expansion movements.
Prominence is given to dispatches from
America apparently indicating public opin-
ion regarding the Philippine islands and the
general tenor of the British press depre-
Gates this seeming tendency to gioomineSs,
pointing out that upon innumerable oCca-
sions British arms have met with check
only to eventually conquer all obstacles.
1--WE were discouraged after lsandula,"
remarks one paper, "but we are beyond the
Zambesi all the same"
Discussing General Lawton's retirement,
the Speaker says
"The movement appears, on reflection, so
natural that any other course, we argue,
would be criminal folly. The American
campaign up to now is justified by results.
The real significance Of the apparent check
is to be looked for in America itself. There
is little doubt that when the presidential
contest occurs the administration will not
have to reckon with a disorgauizcd and dis
credited foe The cost and suffering of
the troops will help the democratic reaction
and the rcpatriated troops are not likely to
be missionaries of Imperialism. In short,
Americas setback in the Philippine islands
may very we'll combine with other factors to
party which may make good fight in 1900,
