Charlie Schwab dslikes show. He seeks retirement. A private car attracted too much attention to him and now he is having an entire private train built Many millionaires tour the country in Pullman cars, but that is vulgar. Other magnates charter special trains, but that's too fashy, brings too much notoriety, so modest, retiring MT. Schwab has ordered a whole train of Pullman cars built for his own use. Some one has suggested that it is a pity that MT. Schwab has been driven to such straits by his dis taste for show, he may now have to buy private railroad for his private train.

Lon.lon, Aug. 10.-All the London
morning papers devote the greater part
of tho space to the news from tn" two
Portsmouths. Special dispatches from
Portsmouth. \. H., giving the opinions
of the correspondents relative to the
peace negotiations, are somewhat pes
smistic. especially those to the Times
and the Daily Telegraph. both OF which
convey the impression that the nego-
tiations are certain to end in failure.
The visit of the French squadron to
Portsmouth, England. and the events
connected with this visit are receiving
unusual attention. Today the French
naval officers will visit London as the
guests of the city. They Will be BAN

throughput the city are even more
elaborate than on the occasion of visits
of foreign rulers in London.
