DANGER OF A MOSCOW.



Vienna, Nov. Q. - A high Austrian
naval officer now in service in the far
East has written a letter to a friend
here in which he says that the troops
in China can maintain connections
with the fleet until the end Of No.
vember, but after that date the Pei no
will be frozen over and the fierce
winter snowstorms will drive away
the fleet. Thus before that time it
will be absolutely necessary for the
allied powers to secure control of the
railway between Shanghai and in
terror points. Otherwise the troops
will be unable to get reinforcements
in case the chinese forces should rally
and in the midst of the awful winter
try to repeat the catastrophe that
overcame Napoleon at Moscow.

Thinks the Republican One Good for
Deception Reports of Differences
With Chairman Jones Untrue.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, June 2S-The
Daily News to-day says:
Colonel w. j. Bryan, en- route to
Chicago and Lincoln from his vacation,
said regarding the Republican platform
adopted at Philadelphia:
The Republican platform is the best
ever thus far given for deception by
the Republican party. Taken with the
speeches made at the convention, it shows
that the Republican party,s platform of
1886 was a deliberate fraud as far as the
promises of international bimetalliSm were
concerned; that the party's attitude on the
trust question is insincere, and that the
party is not willing TO state its attitude on
the Philippine question and invite the judg-
menl OF the people. Nothing was more
manifest in the convention than the mill
tary spirit, and yet the convention did not
dare endorse the demand Of the President
in 1895 for standing army of 10o.0 00o men"
Colonel Bryan declared that the reports
of serious differences between himself and
Chairman Jones We're absolutely false.

And Corresponding Decrease in the
Cable Charges.
The FUTURE OF MANKIND,
Saws the Member Of Parliament for
Canterbury, is Destined to be Shaped
by These Two Countries and
misunderstanding Should
he Prevented by Trans
mission of Thought

1ONDON. June 24.-In the Sunday Spe-
oia, Jonn Henneker Heaton, Conserva-
tive member OF parliament for Canterbury
devotes a long article to the advocacy OF
cheaper postal and cable communication
between Great Britain and ttle United
States.
Starting with the statement that Britain
and "oilr trusty, well-beloved cousins ap-
narently are destined together to soape the
f,,tnra Of mankind and control the Atlantic
Ocean he urges q reduction OF trans
Atlantic postage to penny, ana d CO
respond!ng reduction in cable charges: ne
argues that the war for American lisue-
pendence was due TO mlsuiioets tdii"ti's' s
and that misunderstanding must ocea
sonally crop UP between the Two VI p',
of the Anglo-SaNon race, untll ieio. ~ 90.
lowing an interchange of, though at
,,,;r,,,,r,, rate. are carried into effect
Mr. Heaton insists that the present
,,sthods of electric communication between
E1lrope and the American continent are
mockery to all but the wealthy, althouSh
electrical transmission should be cheaper
than postal rates.
He adds that two cables can practically
do the work of transmitting twenty MIL
lions of words annually, but ten caples are
kept idle while the public is paying a mil
lion dollars annually. He thinks that the
two governments, Great Britain and the
United States, could lay the cables and do
the work, charging the public s13o,c0o an
nually, with a profit of $4,000 on the in
yestment in the cables. If these two gov
ernuents hang back he trusts and be-
lieves that the genius of Marconi will yet
succeed in getting penny kilograms to
America.
