the Tlmes from Pans sars:

the Times from Paris says:
With regard to the rumored visit to
Paris Of the Car. the French press
on the whole seems firmly persuaded
that It is undertaken with a view OF
raising another Russian loan in Paris.
As evidence OF this the preliminary
visit Of NJ. De witte. the Russian
finance minister who was here recently,
Is quoted.
La Libre Parole declares that it
knows for certain that an attempt was
recently made by Russia to raise n
large loan in America and failed. and.
as money is absolutely necessary to
the Russian government at this mo-
ment, determined attempt will be
made to raise il in France.
This impression is altogether chang
ing the popular attitude with regard
to the Franco Russian alliance. and
many papers representing the most di-
verse opinions declare that France is
paying far too high a price for the
friendship Of her northern neighbor.
At the present juneture this atti-
tude os France is important. as II the
Franco Russian alliance breaks down
the whole face Of European politics IS
changed.

WILL EXPORT COAL.
Companies Preparing to Do a Big
Business With Europe.

NEW YORK. Aug. 29.-In an inter-
view. William Solomon. chairman Of the
executive committee Of the Baltimore
& Ohio, said that that road is not build
ing ships to transport coal to Europe.
He expressed the opinion that the rail-
roads generally would keep OF the
water" He said that the facilities for
shipping coal which We're being con-
structed at Curtis Bay. near Baltimore.
would be completed in about thirty
days, and that their cost including the
cost Of Improvement Of the trade and
road bed from Baltimore to Curtis Bay
would approximate $4,000.
These facilities will be useful to the
company" said Mr.. Solomon, whether
the prospective coal trade of the
United States materializes or not. A
large amount Of coal is transported by
ship to New England and other points
on the North American continent. II
the Europeon export trade comes along,
we shall also be prepared to meet it.
but the business Of the Baltimore &
Ohio would. as heretofore. control the
transportation Of the coal from the
mines to tidewater. All 1 am willing
to say regarding the possibilities Of a
European market for American coal is
that If the price of coal in England
continues high there will undoubtedly
be profit in shipping American soft
coal to the Mediterranean ports Of
Europe. At present the difficulty is
to secure vessels to carry the coal, but
if the price Of English coal remains
high new ships will undoubtedly be
provided"
William L. Sweet, general sales
agent Of the Fairfield Bituminous Coal
Corporation, says:
I'VE regard hopefully the possibill-
ties Of opening up an extensive coal ex-
port business to Europe. We have done
no exporting ourselves and do not an
ticipate such action in the near future,
but we have received. however, in
auiries for coal from Germany. France,
Italy and Egypt. These inquiries come
from coal dealers who supply the pro-
duct for manufacturing and domestic
purposes. While we are not exporting
coal ourselves. we are selling our pro-
duct to brokers and exporters, as it
would require a great deal Of capital
to engage directly in the export trade.
A large organization would be required
and there would be risk in collecting
money!

OPERATIONS INDEcIsIvE.
Neither British Nor Beers Appear t
Be Accomplishing Anything.

NEW YORK. Aug. ga dispatch
to the Tribune from London says:
There is much inclination to believe
that the operations in which Lord
Roberts is now engaged against Gen.
eral Botha are destined to form the
final stage Of the South African war.
from a Pretoria report cabled to the
effect that the Beers at the capital be-
lieve that Botha will abandon the con-
test IL beaten on this occasion and
that Presidents Kruger and Steyn win
then flee to Delagoa bay. But these
rumors have been repeated and proved
fallacious frequently enough before and
it Is impossible TO pronounce definitely
that the Boer leaders believe the linz
II Of resistance to have been reached.
The temperance OF De Wet in the
Orange Free State and the activity Of
the Beers on Buffers communications
In Natal would rather point the 9TH
er way. II it had been determined to
stake everything on the result Of Bo-
tha's stand in the eastern Transvaal.
it would hardly seem worth while to
revive the campaign in other quar-
tiers.
So far, the operations between the
Boer and British main armies have
been somewhat undecisive. Lord Rob-
erts says in his dispatch on Monday
evening that the operations are now
necessarily slow on account of the diff
ficult nature Of the country which
forms the scene Of the battles. He
however considers his advance going
on satisfactorily and records General
Buffers engagement Of the s7th as an
important success. The result of the
days fighting was that the Beers with
drew their line by some two miles. al
lowing Butler to capture a strong po-
sition within their outer semi-circle Of
defenses west Of the Dalmanutha rail-
way station.
The question now arises whether the
British will be able to force the fighting
so as to keep the enemy in position
and compel him to accept the defeat
which superior numbers and more per-
feet artillery should be able to infiict.
or whether the nature Of the country
is such that General Botha can go
back from one advantageous position
TO another and possibly be able to re-
treat in time to save his guns and
transport. II previous experience is a
guide. the Beers will delay the British
advance as long as they can do so
safely but win then retire at leisure
before the invaders can secure a de-
cisive victory
Charles Williams. the well-known
military expert. believes Lord Roberts
has the present intention Of returning
to England in the course Of October
so as to be ready to relieve Lord Wolse-
ley on November /. as commander-in-
chief Of the British army. In such
event General Butler may be asked to
resume command Of the forces in South
Africa.
General Warren writes to the Times
to say that various statements which
have recently appeared in the press
purporting to be views expressed by
him as to recent events in South AZ
rica have been made entirely without
his authority; that he has not ex-
pressed any opinions with a view to
publication and that some Of the state
m4nts attributed to him are contrary

TEN TSIN. China. July 17.-The an
cient stons walls Of the Chinese city
of Tien Tsin surrounded. on the days Of
its occupation by the allied troops. a
square mile Of such filth, ruin and
death. such turmoil and plllage as his
tory could hardly duplicate. Under
normal conditions the place, was no
better than huge eesspool fostering
with the accumulated rubbish and slOps
from a population Of nearly a million
packed into a labyrinth OF novels
around the palaces OF viceroys and pet
ty Tao Tais who absorbed their wealth
and gave them not even sewers In re-
turn. Now it is the incarnation Of all
the suffering horrors and waste Of war.
The European soldiers, when they
fought their way up to the walls. saw
floating in the canals and bitches out
side dozens Of Chinese slain by their
own people because they refused to
fight. The bodies were headless and
their hands were tied behind their
backs. The heads were discovered af-
forwards. Rows Of them decorated the
outer walls, hung by their pig tails.
Five flags were flying from the high
pagodas on the city walls when the
newspaper correspondents entered; the
French. japanese, American. Russian,
and British.
1T was hard enough to get those
flags up there" remarked a foreign Off
Ger. "but the real trouble will be to get
them down."
The suburbs Of the city presented
foretaste of what was inside. Shells
had torn the huts and plowed the
ground, while the dead men scattered
about among the dead horses, pigs and
dogs testified how thoroughly the bull
let's had swept the region the day be-
fore.
The sights inside compelled respect
for the fighting qualities of the Chinese.
Their dead were everywhere. Dressed
in the coast blue coolie blouse, and
trousers decorated with characters
guaranteed to render them invulnerable
to foreign bullets, they were strewn
along the top Of the wall wherever they
had fallen. Walking a quarter Of a
mile along the embanlrnent the bodies
averaged one in ten feet and the wall
was nearly ten miles long. Throughout
the city demolished houses and hun
dreds Of killed gave evidence Of how
vastly more effective had been the for
eign shell fire within the walls Of the
city than the Chinese bombardment Of
the settlement which lasted for a
month and had killed only a dozen peo-
pie.
The viceroy had constructed in the
palace yard two comfortable and i'm
penetrable bomb proof excavations
guarded by sand bags. but the common
people were less fortunate. Many wo-
men and children were lying dead in the
streets. torn terribly by .shrapnel. The
