intends to strengthen the squadron OF Ger
man war vessels stationed in the North
Atlantic. Two large cruisers and three
gunboats will be devoted to this purpose
and the whole will be placed under the
command of distinguished admiral
Prince Adelbert, the ksiser's third son,
will be attached to this squadron and
probably will be placed in command Of
one of the gunboats. The object of this
move Is openly to strengthen the good
relations between Germany and the United
States and to extend these relations to the
fleets of both nations. 1t is this which in
duces the kaiser to part with Prince Adel-
bert, probably his best beloved son, who
bids fair to be a gentleman as we'll as a
gallant sailor.
Prince Adelbert is physically a nne type
of young fellow, with an open, frank
bearing, perfect manners and a thorough
knowledge of idomatic Enblish. He will
devote much time to study of American
naval matters while in North Atlantic
ports.
II is the kaiser's most earnest wish that

STRIKE NOT NOW EXPECTED
Employees of Southern Pacific Look
for a settlement of Differences
with Company.

OAKLAND. Cal. Oct. 25.-The prevailing
sentiment among the railroad employees OF
the Southern Pacific company is that there
will be no strike, but that an amicable set
tlement OF all the demands which have been
made by the various unions will be arrived
at The willingness Of the company TO con-
fer with the mem will, II is believed, have
the effect OF moderating whatever action
may be taken.
Many Of the union stand in the highest
favor with the company and there is a very
strong sentiment among the men against
attempting to secure better wages by
strike methods. The men consider their
demand just and believe that by calling the
attention of the company ofhcials to their
wants that gradually all that has been
asked for will be granted.
