Great Britain's View of
The Debate.
NO INTENSE INTEREST
Government Inclined to Await Mott
fcaton of the Senate's
Action.

LONDON, Dec. 15.-In view of the
events in South Africa 1t is scarcely
surprising that the public refuses to
be cajoled into taking a burning In
terest in the Nicaragua canal, In spite
of the special American cable dis
patches, which break the record for
length and seriousness.
The London Times correspondent to-
day makes a passionate comparison
between the present stage of affairs
and that which existed at the time of
the Venezuelan dispute, and bitterly
arraigns President Mckinley and the
Senate, yet Lord Pauncefote has not
cabled a word to the Foreign Office,
which only heard of the vote ON the
Davis amendment through the press.
Such pessimistic and indignant cable
messages as most of the London
dailies are receiving from their Ameri-
can correspondents find no responsive
echo in Downing street, where depre
cation is freely expressed of these
cable defforts to apprise the British
public Of how badly the Senate Is al
legged to be treating their government.
The Foreign Office officials, while ex-
pecting the treaty to be amended, were
frankly surprised at the size Of the
anything else to open their eyes to
the fact that there was no truth in the
cabled statements that the railroad
interests were solely responsible for
the opposition, or that iIratio al jingo-
ism had suddenly become epidemic IN
the United States. There exists in the
Foreign CGce sane appreciation OF
the American objections to building
the canal and not being allowed 10
fortify it.
Yet, az the same time" says an
official, Eve don't see why the treaty
which we made with the people who
we believed to be the responsible rep
resentatives of America should be
treated so cavalierly by the Senate.
We do not regard the present issues
as of any great Importance, for we
doubt if the Nicagagua canal will ever
be a paying investment, and whoever
builds it, it will be of little use to
England either in peace or in war;
What we do regret is the apparent
hopelessness of making treaties with
a country whose Senate takes such OPP
posite views to those it empowers to
act in it's behalf.
There seems to be an impression
in America that the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty was secured by the cuteness
of the English representative and gave
England an unfair advantage. That
view has never existed here. In fact,
rather the reverse. However, We shall
not bother our heads about the matter
until the Senate finishes its 1abors and
we receive the results through dfplo-
matte channels. We are anxious to
know what America really does want,

The spot was but a step from hades, but
i great place for much coming and going and
hearing the news; and then twas near the
shipyard off which lay the Phantom. Never
day passed without one broil, and often
two or three, most of them ending in more
or less bloodshed, and one of them put
stop to the life was then leading.
l mind me it was or cloudy Saturday
forenoon early in August, though through
the wet in the air and the veiled heat every
pore oozed as if one had raced. There had
been but few about. / was half doing un-
der locust in the tavern yard when be-
came conscious that two men had but just
settled themselves at a small table near me,
and was thoroughly wakened by hearing the
name of "Scammell' in connection with
some matter they had been discussing.
One was a boyish-looking naval officer,
seated with his face toward me, the other
being in dress a cross betwixt soldier and
civilian. Like the officer, he wore a sword,
but l could see no more of him than the
broad of his back.
Using bit the tail Of my eye, I ms rked
them begin game of cards for stakes, for
could hear the clash of coin, and after a
hand or two he of the hack spoke.
"Does Clinton know She man."
"Nay, but he knows of him and what he
ndS done, was the answer. Was COlO
last night that he has been about There's
something afoot outside, and he'll be need
ed. 'Tis a wonder he has not turned up for
| another job; Clinton IS liberal with the
kings cash! I'll give you pound to find
him"
There was silence for moment or two
as the officer drew in a stake and dealt the
cards.
II wish I could get fingers on this same
| kings cash." the unknown remarked.
"Card-playing for shillings is small truck for
man, and ye have had all the luck. Could
] pass myself off, dye think, an do the
work instead O the chap yer after?"
NAY, you're no sailor, and have hut a
shady record for pluck"
''Then tbs a sailor you want! AS for
shades an records, it's but case O. the pot
an kettle! It's the way We naval chaps
have of robbing a man of an honest living!
| Now I've lost time with We because | fam
cied l scented cash. All last night l won
nothing save sore head for this morning.
| Come! ye but stave me off from the job
Play, then, for something save shiliings and
crowns an thin wine. I'm sick of it, I'll
lay We the pound We offered on the better O.
three hands, an then quit, win or lose"
God knows I'm willing to quit" was the
return. I've played all night and am
tagged. I'll play you the pound for the
last" And the officer yawned as he tossed
the cards to his opponent.
Now knew this to be nothing less thar
the trick of blackleg. To lose on shillings
and win on pounds was a common prac
tice with them, as it is to this day The
officer must have been green not to have
seen through it, but | had little sympathy
for anyone wearing the scarlet, and, in
truth, was interested in seeing how the
game would be played and possibly hearing
more of Scammell
Doubtless | had been taken for drunk
en- drover as sat with my chin on my ches
and my chair tilted against the tree; any
way, they gave me no notice

DEATH IN A WATER MAIN.
Remarkable Tragedy in st. Louis, the VIC
tim Being George w. Gross, an EN-
ploye OF the Waterworks.

ST. Louis, Feb. 25.-While a fire en-
gine, working at high pressure.
pumped the water from the basin of
the Grand avenue water tower, and
thousand men and women, forming
huge circle, awaited developments,
the limp body of George w. Gross. an
employe of the water department,
was pulled from a .nanhole $50 feet
east of the tower. Death came
to Gross in most remarkable man
ner. Fleeing from foul gases which
hung about the bottom of the tower
in which he had been at work. Gross
tried to escape by crawling through
water main leading to the east.
Through this main there trickled a
small stream of water. Gross body,
nearly filling the main, served as a
dam, and inch by inch the water rose
until it reached the top arch of the
pipe, and then Gross, dropping over
on his back, was drowned.

CHAPTER ".
NEW YORK IN 177S


New York at this period was a scene of
confusion.
The fear of the French, which had occa-
stoned the evacuation of Philadelphia. had
brought horde of 1900 soldiers to be set
down among 5000 others, where but scant
Preparations had been made to receive
them. What with the smart of the lashing
administered by Washington at Monmouth
On their march across New Jersey, the
weakness of Howe's feet, the fear of sud-
den movement on the city by the Americans,
and the intense heat of the weather. the
army was in a state bordering on panic.
1t was an army, too, that through rank
and file had been demoralized by inactivity
and debauch, and nothing could have been
more apt or prophetic than the remark made
by Franklin when it became known to him
that the Delaware had been opened by
Howe: philadelphia has succumbed to the
British, but they in turn will succumb to
Philadelphia"
1t had been even so, but the effect had be-
come apparent in New York. The civil law
had long been prostrate; the military au-
thority lax. Now the British were waking
in the condition of man after nights dis
sipation, battling with muddled brain, and
feeling the internal economy fairly out of
gear. Fraud, fear and incompetence reigned
| in every branch of the service, and betwixt
FIRE, vandalism and the necessities of war,
New York, which had never known and was
never to know the dignity of battle, suffered
as no besieged city could suffer more.
All this suited my purpose, as well as di-
rectly favored my interest. The influx of a
| host of newcomers saved me from being
| prominent as q stranger, and the extra prep
| arations for the defense of the town, to-
gether with the knowledge that the French
were at last upon the sea, diverted atten-
ton from small naval ventures.

TO TRAIN NEW SOLDIERS.
Secretary Root Outlines the Plan for
the War College to Be Erected
at Washington.
HIGHER INSTRUCTION is DESIRED
The Idea IL tn Develop and Organize. with
u Coherent and Uniform System, the
Existing Means of Professional Educa-
tion-Wm Serve as = Coordinate Agen-
cy for the Military Authorities

Washington, Feb. 25.-The plans of
jected war college are set out in a
letter of instruction addressed by
him to the board charged with per-
fecting the plan. The letter is as fol-
lows:
The main purpose of the proposed war
college for the army, to be established in
this city, is in general to further the
higher instruction of the service, to de-
velop and organize in accordance with a
coherent and unified system, the existing
means of professional education and
training, and to serve as a coordinate
agency through which all means of pro-
fessional military information shall be
at the immediate disposal of the military
authorities. While 1T is recognized that
the complete organization of the insti-
tuition must be matter of gradual
growth, it is desired that the preliminary
steps toward its organization shall be
taken as rapidly as circumstances will
permit.
In the general plan now under con-
sideration of the war department the
army college will be expected to consider
and report upon the various questions
affecting the welfare and efficiency of the
army, including organization, methods OF
administration, armament, equipment,
transportation, supplies mobilization,
concentration, distribution, military prep
arations, plans of campaign, and such
other professional matters as may be
referred to it. The college is also ex-
pected to supervise and direct the meth
DDS of the several service schools, so as
to develop their highest efficiency, and to
devise rules for the harmonious and ef-
fect1ve cooperation of all the military
forces of the United States, including the
organization of an instructed reserve
Other matters demanding it's attention
will be the consideration of methods for
full cooperation of the military and ma
val forces in time of war; with a view
to a thorough understan nding and concert
of action for military operations, defens.

NOT so STUPID.
Telling the Traveller to
Walk On.

It was an old man in Sweden who
gave to stranger an answer that was
wiser than it appeared The stranger,
one of prospecting party searching
for gold, had wandered away from the
rest, to find himself at last with fair
piece Of quartz as a reward for his
pains, in a region he knew nothing of,
with no guide, and night coming on.
Friend" he asked of an old man
smoking in his doorway, ''how long
will it take me to walk to the next
town."
The old man eyed the speaker quiz
zically.
Walk on" be said, with a wave of
his hand in the right direction.
Yes, 1 know which road; but how
long will it take me to walk there?"
asked the stranger again.
Walk on" repeated the smoker, stol-
idly.
But can't you tell me how long it
will take me to reach the town." per-
sisted the other, impatiently.
walk on" third time directed the
old man, and the stranger did walk on,
inwardly anathematizing the stupidity
of the smoker.
Young man." called the resident,
when the stranger had gone a few
yards.
He turned impatiently.
Il just wanted to tell you. that if you
keep up that gait you'll get there in
half an hour"
why couldn't you say so before ?''
demanded the stranger, hotly.
The old man removed the pipe from
his mouth, blew a volume of smoke
skyward, and answered coolly:
