With the vantage ground we have,
we could have dictated the world'l

Public Ledger:-"There is . wi
despread feeling that the present
complications in China will end in
the long looked for dismemberment
ot that country and its partition
amsng the great Powers. OF course,
it is possible that this may be the
outesms. Russia, Germany and
France, 1t is we'll known, desire such
. partition, but as long as England,
Japan and the United States are in
opposition it is not likely that the
dlsIemberment will be accOmplis-

POPE IN EXCELLENT
HEALTH AND SPIRITS
He introduced Archbishop Ireland. Who
Talked on Matters in America.
At the Vatican.

Rome, Aug. 20.--Sunday being tho
feast of St Joachim. the pope's patron
saint, there was a large gathering at
the vatican of cardinals, bishops and
presidtns of societies. The pope,
who was in excellent health and spir-
is. spoke at some length regarding
matters of Catholic interest, and then,
with a complimentary introduction, in
vited Archbishop Ireland to address
the assembly on matters in America
and the relations of the outer world
to the holy see.
Mgr Ireland. who was frequently
applauded during a speech of 20 MN
utes. spoke glowingly of the fidelity
of American Catholics to the Roman
church and the holy see. He described
liberty under the American flag ana
set forth the necessity of the pope, !;
the head of christendom, being fire.,
and independent to any one civil power
$50 as to be in fact as well as of right
the sovereign teacher and ruler of all
nations and peoples without special de-
tendency on any special nation or PEG
pie"
The address gave visible satisfaction.
Mgr. Ireland had a final audience
with the pope on Friday.

bles
I'VE are on the threshold of an en-
tirely new condition of affairs; a now
aspect confronts MS" said we'll
posted official of this government
1.-THE efforts Of the several govern
ments during the past few weeks have
been devoted to the rescue of the le-
gationers al Picking. Now that that
has been accomplished, the course of
the governments whose interests have
been affected is for the present one
largely of conjecture"
The presumption here Is that the
next move will be an agreement for an
armistice. This may be undertaken
by the commanders Of the Chinese
army and those Of the allies on the
spot where the fighting. according to
the latest reports from Peking, appears
to be still In progress. This accom-
plished, the question of the withdrawal
of the foreign armies, the payment of
indemnities, and many other problems
may be left to commissions duly APP
pointed to adjudicate them. Iii Hung
Chang has already been appointed q
pIenipotentiary by his government to
negotiate terms of peace, and In this
capacity he made an Intellectual at
tempt to stop the progress of the al
lies in their march on Picking. Wheth-
er Earl Ii will be continued in that
capacity by the imperial government
is not known here, but such seems al
together probable, as with his we'll
known ability and his acquaintance
with the world he would be able to
possibly make better terms than any
other Chinaman.
There are II nations, pointed out
the same official which have suffered
as result of the Chinese disturb
ances All will expect settlement
of damages which have resulted from
the Boxer outbreaks the murder OF
missionaries and the destruction OF
legation property. aSpain is one OF
these. and. although she has not par
tieipated in the relief expedition, she
has suffered alike with the others.
and will expect to be Unidentified for
her losses. 1t can be stated authorita-
lively that up to this time there have
been no exchanges between the United
States and the other powers regarding
the steps to be taken in the future to
bring China to terms for the losses
that have been incurred. The sole
interest of the United States up to
this time has been the rescue of iega-
TONERS, which Is now an accomplished
fact. Informal discussion has taken
place between the president and his
cabinet as to what this government
will do to secure PREPARATION for losses,
btlt the conclusions reached are purely
tentative and in no sense definite.

of frewood, fastened crosswise, consti-
tute the base, and two upright sticks,
solidly connected at top and bottom,
serve for the connection of the arbors.
The mechanism consists Of a motor
weight, four-ar wheel and escape
ment rack, a pendulum and two pulleys,
one of which has a crank and handle
for winding. A dial and hands, with the
dial work, complete the ensemble.
NEARLY ALL OF WOOD.
All is of wood, except the wheel range
of the rack. which is of metal. The mo-
torweight is suspended from the drum
of the four-armed wheel which occupies
the central part Of the clock. The force
Is transmitted to the pendulum and the
motion work by wire, four and half
meters in length, rolled on one hand on
the arbor Of the rack, and on the other
attached to one of the arms Of the wheel.
The pendulum is attached to wire, OF
which the length Is regulated by means
of pin at the top of the frame. The
winding Is effected by means of pulley
placed at the lower part of the construc-
ton and connected with the axis of the
escapement wheel by an endless wire.
The motion work IS operated with the
aid of a pinien of three leaves acting on
q cannon ,pinion of seyenty-two teeth,
which revo1ves once an hour. This pin
ion is on the arbor of the escapement
rack, so that the latter makes twenty
four revolutions an hour; as as 1t has
