AMERICA AMONG THE NATIONS
Com mercia11y. the United States Has
an UNPARALLELED Situation.

Com IN erc1aIly. the OnIteu VtdlSs mas
an Unparalleled Situation.
Uncle Sam has a better business stand
than any of his competitors BY far the
greater part of the worlds population is
to live around the Pacific ocean. 1t is to
be the Mediterranean-the midland sea
of the future. At present England has
n commercial advantage in the Pacific,
but the cutting of the isthmian canal
will transfer that advantage to the Unit
ed States. If a British ship should sail
from Liverpool for Cape Horn, and an
American ship should sail from New
York for the same point, the latter would
have to sail $50 miles farther than the
former to reach the cape; and that means
that every port on the western coast OF
South America, Mexico and North Amer
lea. Mexico and North America is. by
water. nearer to Liverpool than to New
York. By sea San Francisco is to-day
$50 miles farther from New York than
from Liverpool.
Suppose that the two ships sail from
New York and Liverpool for the Suez
canal. The latter ship would have an
advantage of 1000 miles over the former,
which means that all Asiatic and Indian
ports are, by the Suez canal, 1000 miles
nearer to Liverpool than to New York.
But when the isthmian canal shall be
cut New York will have an advantage of
about 1000 miles on the average to the
ports of north China. from 800 to 100
miles to the principal ports of the cen
trail and western Pacific, and from 2,IOO
to $500 miles to the ports of the eastern
Pacific. That is, commercially speaking,
the Pacific is now a British ocean. BY
reason. therefore, of the location of the
United States, we shall always have bet
ter access to the markets of the world
than any other people. Not only does
our location give us a great commercial
advantage, but it also saves us hundreds
of millions of dollars every year by free
ing us from the burden of a great stand
ing army such as well nigh crushes the
life out of every great continental power
of Europe. AS the London Spectator
SAYS. ours is "a situation on this planet
UNPARALLELED"

Panther Shells Venezuelan Fort, but
Is Forced to Retire.
The German cruiser Panther shelled
Fort San Carlos, at the entrance to Lake
Maracaibo, Venezuela. Saturday. The
fort replied with four guns and the bonn
bardment continued for one hour, after
which the Panther retired in the direction
of Curacao. The fort suffered little dam
age and only three men in the garrison
were wounded 1t is asserted that the
Panther was badly damaged. Fort San
Carlos is twenty-five miles from Mara
caiho and commands the entrance to the
lake or. inner bay.
The attack upon the fort was without
any provocation on the part of the de-
tenders. The cruiser appeared Off the
fort shortly after noon. 1t soon became
apparent that she was bent upon forcing
the passage to the harbor, and prepara-
tions were at once begun to defend the
position. These preparations had no
sooner been completed when there was a
puff of smoke from the Panther's port
battery, and a shell came crashing over
the fort. The fort replied instantly, ard
for over three-quarters of an hour a ter
rifle bombardment was maintained. The
shells from the Panther mostly passed
over the redoubt although several struck,
but did little damage.
When it became known In Maracaibo
that a German warship had engaged the
fort and had been driven off the excite
ment was intense. There were popular
demonstrations ,of joy upon the streets,
and until late in the night crowds pa
raded the thoroughfares celebrating the
victory. In Caracas all the war fever Of
a few weeks ago broke out afresh. Bands
paradcd the streets playing the national
air. Congratulatory speeches were made
on the street corners, and the city gave
itself up TO celebration.
