AN AMERICAN
UNION UNLIKELY
Daily News Of London
Takes Issue With
Stead.

LONDON, Dec. 25.-The Daily News this
morning, in an editorial discussing Stead's
pamphlet on The American Lion of the
World" admits that Mr.. Gladstones s
prophecy that the United States would
replace Great Britain as the premier na-
tion has been, on the whole, realized; but
il declares it to be utterly impossible that
Great Britain, as Mr.. Stead eXtravagant-
ly expresses ii, should enter an Anglo
American union except after a series of
disasters rendering separate existence inn
possible. The paper considers any kind
Of an Anglo-American federation equally
unlikely, owing to the Briton's insatiab bic
love of caste. For the rest, it confesSes
the enormous influence which the United
States Wields over British colonies and
that a majority of Irishmen would vote
for federation with the United States.
The article further says it would be in
teresting to see what must happen if the
United States should drop its protection
ist policy and should offer to Jamaica, In
dia, or even Australia the immense bribe
Of admission on reciprocal terms to their
vast, ever-eXtending markets.

ate in the Shadow of a

of them.
When the holdup occurred Miss Martin
was on her way home. The footpads,
both of whom wore masks that concealed
their features, sprang out from their hid
ing place and confronted the frightened
lady with a pistol From the deliberate
manner in which the robbers performed
their work the police are of the opinion
that they are professional foOtpads. After
having relieved Miss Martin of all the
money which she had the highwaymen n
took to their heels and made good their
escape At the time of the holdup there
were no people on Powell street to whom
Miss Martin could have appealed for as
sistance.
Lieutenant Birdsall reported the hold
up toi Captain Seymour yesterday and he
pads Notwithstanding the fact that the
robbers wore heavy masks, Miss Martin
was able to give a very good description
of them. A notice has been sent to the
bank in which Miss Martin has her
money deposited instructing the man
agement not to honor the checks that the
robbers secured.
