the Buffalo tragedy. There is a strong anti
American feeling in Vienna. but it does not ex-
tend 10 the Magyar half of the dual empire,
Englshmen have been noticing with surprise
: the bitter resentment excited in Germany by Mr..
Chamberlain's casual reference to the Franco
German war. 1t is straw showing the direc-
ton of the wind in Germany. where. in spite Of
the Emperor's cordial relations with the reign
ing house here. England is regarded an in
dustrial enemy and is not liked This revelation
| of anti English feeling in Germany strengthens
the desire of public and the press here for
settlement Of all outstanding questions be-
tween England and America. An expression
! commonly heard is that good feeling with
/ America will be worth more than the closest
alliance with Germany The objections raised
by Canada to settlement of the canal contro-
versy are attracting attention, but the hope is

| traces of staleness or lack of gallantry among
! the British a British veteran on furlough pre-
dfcted not long ago that the war would end in

long way from Standerton, but unhappiy there

fired their last shot.
Visitors to the Shoe and Leather Fair yester
day were impressed by the fact that the British
boot and shoe trade is largely dependent upon
| American machinery. One British exhibitor
said: Americans twenty years ahead OF
us in machinery. Fortunately, we in England
can buy the same machinery the Americans
are using so there is still hope for our trade.

The French Government heartily con-

from the Sultan some reparation for past mis-
deeds is cordially approved of.
II is by common consent agreed that the

little doubt that this announcement will shortly
