Predicts Gigantic Struggle:

In the course of an exhaustive re-
view Of the history of the world
contributed to the Meue Freie Presse
by Max Nortlau, the writer deeply
deplores the growth of military i'm:
perialism in the United States and
says that by tbs admission If the
spirit of milltarlsm: WHICH was TOR
merlv vigorously e.cludcd, Ameriaa
is raising obstacles to the entrance
of emigrants whose only capital is
their strong working arms.
Speaking of the future OF the new
world NJ. Nordau says the opening
of the BANANA canal under Ameri-
can ownership Will mark the be-
ginning of new epoch. AT first
the Anglo. Saxon element will seek
to drive out the &c, man and French
flags floating over single points in
the Pacific ocean; then the struggle
will be carried further to the Asiatic
coast, where Anglo SaXons and Rus
slams will have 10 decide the mo-
mentous world question of whether
eastern and southern Asia shall re-
main British or Russian: To this
forecast M Nordau adds
zone can only imagine with hor-
ror what such gigantic Struggle OF

FOUR KILLED
Rutland Men Meet Death in Rail-
road Accident

The no,th.bound flyer from New
York and the wild engine which was
coming from Burlington met last
night between Burlington and shell
burne. and as u result four men are
dead, one so severely injured that he
will probably die and several more
injured.
The cause of the accident is nm
known, but the theory OF the ON
cials or the Rutland road is that En-
eiueer Cowec figured that the flyer
would he late and that he could
reach helburne in time to pass the
train there. The flyer was exactly
on time, however, and met the en-
cine when only about mile north
OF Shelburne.

\ Washington despatch says:
Chas. II. Darling, the assistant sec

Darling's duties have to do with

entrance into the reform field was
merely incidental. He is 4 pr1ctl-
cal man from Vermont VIII" hc'leNe,

a cleaning out OF the SaIo MS, g"mb-

that Brcmcrton harbors. MIR. Oar
linp's action was based on reports
from officers at the Puget Sound
Navy Nard, which showed that
Brcmerton was a PacIlc coast
Sodom and Gomorra. The navy
dspa, tmcnt heard last month that
sailors from the ships which had
been sent to the yards tor repairs
were mulctcd of their wages bN
saloonkccpcrs, barkrcpcfs, gamb-
lers and disrrputahc women in Bre-
merton, and on November 10 AS
sistant Secretary Darling, to whom
the matter was referred tor invcsu-
CATION BY Secretary Moody, wrote
to Rear Admiral Mates Stirling,. the
commandment of the yard. for re-
port as to the truth Of these stories.
The response Of Admiral StlrIing'
dated Dec. 70. and the accompanv-
inc statements OF subordinate Off
GERS bore out the reports that had
come to the ears OF the naval an
thoritics here, and Mr.. Darling.

iect made this Endorsement ON the
