Indications That She Will Agree

Latest Note.
An EXCHANGE OF VIEWS is DESIRED.
Mckinley May Propose Taking of
Negotiations Out of Hands of En-
voys and Appointing Commissions
ers to Meet in European Capital.

London, Nov. 26.-secretary Hay :
note appealing to the powers to devise
measures to bring about an amicable
and satisfactory settlement of the Chi
nese crisis has been received at the
foreign office, through Lord Paunce-
fote, the British ambassador at Wash
ington, but it has not yet been an
swered. The note points out that the
difficulties of getting China to execute
the punishments desired by the powers
are so great as to make, in the opinion
OF the United States, this way of solving
the crisis almost impracticable. The
note does not propose any definite sub
st1tute, but suggests an exchange of
views, whereby the powers can arrive
at better basis of treating China.
The United States embassy has not
received a copy of the note and is ig-
norant of its contents.
Judging from the foreign Office opin-
ion voiced in these dispatches Satur-
day, Great Britain is likely to assent
gladly to Secretary Hays proposition.

GREAT MEN NOT SOLDIERS.

From time immemorial it has been
the men who fought and won decisive
battles which were alone counted great
by their fellows. The worlds progress
has wrought a change in this thing,
and, while the great general is not
without his need of honor, men in 9th
err pursuits than war share with him
the praise and appreciation of their
fellows. The inventor, the scientist,
the philanthropist, the men who have
made the old world larger and better
in story and song, and, by unfolding
natures secrets, have opened up new
fields of opportunity and labor are
numbered today among the worlds
great men. The men who developed
the Concord grape, the Wealthy apple,
the navel orange, our improved breeds
of stock, modern dairy methods and
transportation facilities have each and
all done their country grand service
and are more worthy of memorial in
bronze or marble than he who made
the earth run red with the blood of his
fellow man.
