A CHANGE In Press TONE.
Editorials I'm London Papers Con-
trast strongly with Those of
the Previous Weeks.

LONDON, March 2 s A. m.-The edi-
torials I'm the morning papers are not only
jubilant but are written In a tone of con
fidence In the future which contrast
strangely with the gloomy forebodiugs Of
the previous six weeks. Gen. Buffers mis-
fortunes are almost forgotten, although 1t
is everywhere recognized that the relief
of Lssiysmith is largely due to the STRAIT
egy of Lord Roberts.
The Times says
THE change wrought in Natal within
twenty-four hours is indeed dramatic. The
siege of Ladysmith will be memorable in
military annals upon many grounds. Sell
dom has the absolute confidence of a gen.
eral In his men been more strikingly dis
played than In the case of Gen. Butler
and never has that confidence been more
completely justified There Is good reason
to trust that we have at last reached the
turning point In the war, owing to Lord
Roberts brilliant strategy"
The Daily News says: ITO surround the
enemy has been found impossible. To pur-
sue him is probably as impracticabie. 9ne
enemy's principal army. therefore, has been
driven away. but not destroyed. With this
relief the first chapter of the war closes
and the invasion of British colonies has
been rolled back -
The Daily Chronicle says:
'Ail is not over. No doubt there are
hardships to be borne and battles to be
won--probably as numerous as any that
have gone before. STILL we are well on
the road to success
The Daily Mail says: Almighty God.
whose arm is strength. has blessed the
efforts of Gen. Buffers army-with com
plete victory, and the cause OF freedom
has triumphed once more
The Daily Telegraph says: "The dark
est week in living memory has neen fol-
lowed by the most joyful week this gene
ration has known. The war has exposed
our weaknesses We shall amend them.
THE relief of Ladysmth relieves all
the early errors of the campaig1 and is
the triumph OF our most characteristic
qualities and an evidence of tho victorious
vitality OF our race

SHIPS IN THE NAVY.
Secretary Long Opposes Building
Them In Navy Yards

WASHINGTON. March f-Secretary
Long made statement to the house
naval committee on the general needs of
the navy and the desirability Of not
building new ships I'm the government
yards. As to the new ships he held 10 his
recommendation at the time congress
met. namely, three armored cruisers OF
about l3,W tons each. with the heaviest
armor and most powerful ordnance
twelve sunboats of about go tons each
three protected cruisers of about 5000
tons each As to building warships in
our navy yards. Mr.. Long said they cost
much more than those built under con-
tract and took twice as long to build
them.
Admiral Dewey suggested 10 the COM
mittee that IL leave OF the twelve gun
boats and give three new battleships In
stead He said the battleships would be
more serviceable, Gen. OTIS had lust
purchased fourteen gunboats and had
turned them over to the navy They were
In very fair condition and the admiral
said that from his experience he Thought
they were just the vessels needed Tor
service In the Philippines
