ANGLO.JApANESE TREATY.
THE HEW ALLIANCE CHECK
MATES RUSSIA MD SAFE
GUAHDS INDIA.
ENGLAND Receives More Benefit Than
Japan and Europe Believes That
the Alliance Is Directed Against
Russia Particularly.

London. September 21.-Tlle opin-
io,l o. Europe III regard to the ne"
Anglo-Japanese treaty, the terms OF
which we're announced yesterday.
seems to be that it is directed almost
entirely against Russia, as 10 other
power is likely to come within its
SCOPE, because it is limited TO the Ear
East and India. The common view IS
that England will gain more through
the treaty than will Japan, because 1t
is not believed Russia will attempt 10
re-es.ablish herself in the Far East
during the next ten years. On the
other hand almost every competent
observer believes that the Car will
try to secure warm water ports on
the Persian gulf within the next ten
years. If Russia attempts to do this
there is no doubt but that England
will declare war against her and by
the terms of the new agreement Japan
will have to come to her assistance.
This provision is regarded as the most
important of the whole treaty and has
given rise to a feeling Of relief in
England as it seems TO insure the
checkmating Of Russia IN the direction
of India.

PEACE INSURED.
The Opinion of Washington Officials
Respecting the Anglo-Japaiicse
Treaty.

Washington, September 2I.-Peace,
rot only in the Far East, but in the
whole world. for the next ten years is
insured by the Anglo-Japanese treaty.
This is the opinion of competent OBJ
servers here, VINO regard the docu-
ment as the most momentous of mod
ern times. Coming contemporaneous-
" with the Anglo-F'rench entente, 1t
is looked upon as an effective check TO
the ambitions of the German kaiser,
and probably affording an explana-
ton for the recent, but belated dis
play of warmth between Germany and
Russia.
In this connection significance IS
attached in official quarters here, to
the fact disclosed from London, that
France and Russia were the only
powers to whom the text Of the new
agreement was communicated before
its publication. Germany was neither
consulted about its preparation nor
informed as to it's contents by either
of the contracting parties.

In Police Circles.

The problem of catching the pocket
pcddicrS, who are doing business by
the "Sandpccp" system. even the police
admit is a hard one to solve. How
ever, III" business carried on in this
way will not flourish unmolcStcd. The
appearance of "sandpccps" is an indi-
cation that hose in the business have
been driven to the last resort. and the
strong pressure which will be cXcrted
against them is likely to have decided
results. Deputy SturgiS Commissioner
Clifford made his appearance in Gard
ncr last evening. and was told that
''SandpccpS" were being sold here "a
fact which he already knew. He also
knows all about the "sandpecp'' meth
od and he said that a great many Of
those who deal in them have coats in
the Innings Of which are apartments
for the accommodations of peeps"
allowing the little walls to be carried
as a burglar carries his tools.
Marshal Andrews visited q house on
Water street. yesterday afternoon, and
called upon one of the inmates. who
is known by a name that suggests the
sunny Southwest. She is widely. al
though not favorably known here. on
both sides of the river. and the mar
shall called to give information that
her early departure is greatly desired.
She was given until this afternoon, to
leave the city. and will prObaly 20 to
Randolph. If she does cross the bridge,
it is likely that she will again be asked
to move on, for she is even more un-
welcome in Randolph than in this
city.
1t is in Randolph that she has made
the most trouble. and one of the most
prominent professional men Of that
town said. yesterday. she would not be
allowed to stay in that place. 1t was
not long ago she and n married man rf
Randolph disappeared at the Same
time. or at least 50 nearly the same
time that 4 scandal was created and
the mans family caused to suffer
humiliation.
1t is to the credit Of the police Of
both this city and Of Randolph that
they are making strenuous efforts to
rid the place of such people.

HaI!owell Hunters Get a Moose.

McSsrs. Aaron Norton and Arthur
Rich arrived home, yesterday, from a
three weeks hunting trip to Lobster
pond and brought with them the prize
Of the season from a Hallowell view
Point. This prize was a 600 pound
moose and all day. yesterday. it was
the object of general interest as il
hung its full length of II feet in front
of Hallowel market 1t is worth look
ing at. Not one in 500 hunters get on
unassisted. Transferring it to the
canoe they effected eight miles more OF
the journey after which they crossed
the carry and came down the big lake
by steamer.
The moose taken was the third seen
while in the woods. Two others.
thought to be of large size were seen
before the open season. The animal
is of fair size and the first of the kind
to come to Hallowell within recent
years. and it goes without saying that
extraordinary aggressiveness and eter
nal vigilance was the price they paid
for il. They went into the woods with
the avoWed intention Of returning with
q moose and it was a moose they got.
Messrs. Norton and Rich dragged the
carcass two miles through the woods
to the pond.
