FOR PEACE Of THE WORLD.
WORK or HAGUE CONGRESS ~ \
BETTER LIGHT.
Permanent Court OF Arbitration "a
Grand Step Ahead-Credit Given TO
British and Russian Delegates.

NEW YORK, July S.-A Tribune ca
BILE from London says; Current English
opinion that the peace congress has
been a failure is modified by the pubi-
cation of the draft of the report of the
arbitration committee by the Manches-
ter Guardian. The English press is now
beginning to admit that while Germany
has blocked the reduction of arma-
ments and converted arbitration into a
purely voluntary scheme, the establish
ment of a permanent tribunal, compe-
tent to deal with nearly every interna-
tional dispute is great gain for civili-
cation. The fact that the Russian ar
bitration proposal has been amended by
Pauncefote's project for permanent
tribunal and transformed thereby into
practical instrument for promoting
the peace of the world, also convinces
the London press that it ought not to
discredit English diplomacy.
To Russia and England belong the
chief honors of the congress. The AM
erican delegates have actively sup
ported the English plan, which did not
differ materially from their own, and
have amended it by providing for q
revision of the aribitrators' judgment
within three months of the award, and
by introducing the principle of special
mediation. Other notifications suggest
ed by them were rejected, and their
VI eAtillpllllS private prop
erty from seizure in war time was too
stronP for the congress. The arbitra =
ton committee has adjourned for a
week for the purpose of enabling the
delegates to consult their governments.
The labors of the congress will prob
ably end on July %.
The moral effects of the council of
peace are not Immediately felt in Eng
land, where the military party is eager
to bring on a war with the Transvaal
and where Lord Lansdowne, secretary
of state for war, has produced a con-
scription bill under the euphemistic title
of the militia ballot bill" In the
House of Lords he admitted that no use
would probably be made of it for many
years. Possibly the first CLEANS of light
of the new day of peace and reconcilia-
ton are seen on the continent where
exchange of dispatches between the
German emperor and President Loubet
over the Iphigenie affair betokens a
marked Improvement in the relations
of two of the military powers. 1t may
open the way for visit of the emperor
to Paris next year and other import
ant results. Cynics choose to assume
that the German emperor is striving
to coax France into joining a triple al
lance and that he aspires to lead the
entire combination into war with
I Russia.

giant Appropriations.
Chairman Cannon of the Appropriations
Committee of the House, in the course of
the general debate on the sundry civil
bill, sounded Il note of warming against
~eNtravagnnt appropriations, and practical
ly served notice that neither the ship sub
si1y bill nor the Nicaragua canal bill
could be passed at this session. Mr.. Cam
non made IL general analysis of what the
bill contained. 1t carries $62, 92S, 1O1, but
S2O,0oo,0OO is for the payment to Spain
to carry out the provisions of the Paris
treaty. Exclusive of that, the bill car
ries SS,O9j, 75S less than the estimate, and
S5.a29,311 less than the current law.
In connection with the bill Mr.. Cannon
made Il general statement as to the condi-
ton of the revenues. The Secretary of
the Treasury in October last, Mr.. Cannon
said, had estimated the deficiency of the
revenues for the fiscal year ending July
j, $3.50, to l." S112.OU0,O 00, or q monthly
average of Sn.333333 600. In his Judgment,
in the light of the receipts and eXpcndi-
lures for the FIRST seven months thus cs-
timatcd, the deficiency was much too low.
The actual deficiency up to Feb. 1, 1899,
was 500. 151,0o0, an average of $13,3O7,-
. per month. AT this rate the deficicn-
cy for the fiscal year would be S159, OOO,-
600. But this would not include the $2O,-
100000 provided by the bill to carry out
the provisions of the Paris treaty.

REBELS AGAIN ROUTED.
Uuited States Troops Capture Town of
Caloocan, Near Manila.

Caloocan. near Manila, was captured by
the Americans early Friday evening after
three hours fighting. Brig. Gen. Otis was
in command of the troops, and was assist
ed in the defeat of the rebels and capture
of the town by the gunboat Concord, the
monitor Monadnock and IL line of artillery.
The Americans charged the Filipino in
trenchmcnts with great gal!antry, and af-
ter a sharp encounter put the insurgents
to flight. The enemy's loss was heavy:
ours light.
The rebels had becn missing their
forces ut Caloocan and Malabon since tho
fighting of Saturday and Sunday. They
had thrown mp strong intrcnchmcnts and
prepared for a desperate resistance. The
Americans took the initiative and forced
the battle. Aguinaldo was reported to
have established headquarters at Mala-

Mule Dcntfstry.

A Mexican mining company which
owns 300 mules keeps Il dentist OIL it's
staff simply to look after the mules
teeth.
One of Mr.. lIule's amiablc weakness
es is the habit Of boiling his food,
which frequently causes dyspepsia or
other diseases. This boiling of his food
is not caused by a desire to hasten his
meal, but because his Miolars, or back
teeth. having more work to perform
than his front teeth, wear away in the
course Of a few years. and become
much shorter than the front ones. thus
allowing the food to pass into the stom-
ach without being properly masticated.
In cases of this kind the incisors, or
front teeth, have to be filed down an
eighth or a quarter of an inch.
The molars of a mule are three and a
half inches in length, while the Incl
sors measure two and n half inches.
