NO MORE ROMANCE IN WAR.
Preparation and Combat Brought to
Scientific Basis.

In spite of all that the military
critics may say, war as a romantic oc-
cupation is doomed. The killing of
men on the field of glory in days long
past is still pictured as a pretty
pastime," as Napoleon said. But the
favorite old figures of tradition are
fast disappearing before the steady
advance of science.
To-day Browning's boy rider who
was shot in two while bearing news
of the capture of Ratisbon to the en-
peror would be a matter-of-fact teleg-
rapher sitting quietly at his instru-
ment, and Beranger's grizzled veteran
of the guard returning to die with
the colors would be barred at the re-
cruiting Office because he could not
tell blue from green without glasses.
Gen. Greedy grew enthusiastic the
other day while describing before the
Military Service Institution at Gov
errors Island how the Japanese had
wired" a whole army spread out be-
fore the enemy. He quoted approx
ingly a war correspondent who said
that the clicking of the telegraph in
struments at his headquarters meant
more to Kuroki than the sound of the
guns. What room will be left for
romance when the general command
ing the army of the right can tele-
phone to the commander-in-chlef's of
flee forty miles away to have ten regi-
ments and four batteries expressed to
him by special train? He might as

ware, for all the sentiment to be got
out of such a situation.
Kuropatkin's headquarters railway
carriage and touring cars for side
be done when his methods are per
fected. When that time comes, the
dashing cavalry leader brevetted for
gallantry on the field of action will
have nothing to boast of except that
he burst seven tires while charging
across the tack mines of an enemy
two counties away. There will be no
more Sheridan's rides.
When a lookout officer stationed in
an impregnable bomb-proof with an
automatic range-finder shall direct by
wireless telephone the firing of
smokeless guns of hidden batteries
against an invisible enemy war will
degenerate into a mere scientific test
between rival lens-makers and electri-
cal-supplies concerns. The last step

TO PROBE FINANCIAL SCANDAL.
Creditors Want Large Sum from New
York National Bank.

Archibald G. Loomis has resigned as
second vice president of the National
City bank, New York, because of the
disclosures growing out of the Mum
roe & Munroe scandal.
Mr.. LOOMS withdrawal from the
bank does not end the connection OF
the Standard Oil institution with the
Montreal and Boston s~tock-Washlng
scandal.
The bank got 100000 from Munroe
& Munroe on the day of the failure,
and Samuel Untermyer, counsel for
Receiver Work, claims that this money
should go into the general fund for di-
vision among all of the creditors. IN
less the bank voluntarily makes restl-
tuition of the $50, 900, suit will probably
be brought for it's recovery.
This may make necessary the call
ing of James Stillman, president OF
the Rockefeller bank, as a witness
When Mr.. LOOMS goes on the stand
he will not be connected with the
bank, and the directors are anxious
that none OF the OHlclalS OF emptoyeS
shall be called to tell of the banks
dealings with the Munroes.
The creditors are confident, how
ever, that the full relations of the
bank with the enormous washing of
Montreal and Boston have not yet
been disclosed, and some of them de-
clare that the books of the bank
should be produced in open court and
closely examined.
Frank Brewer, the broker who got
8 10000 shares of Montreal & Boston
stock from the Munroes on the day OF
the failure, but was only charged on
the books of the firm for $4,000 shares,
is said to have been the personal
broker of Mr.. Loomis.
Why Brewer should have been made
the gift of $4,000 shares, worth at
the time s52,5OO, is n of the many
mysteries of the scandal not yet
cleared up. Mr.. Loomis will be ques-
toned about this phase of the case.

international Animosities.

In his "reminiscences of diplomatic
life Andrew White tells a pleasant an
ecdote of Empress Frederick, the Ger
man emperor's mother. The Ameri-
can ambassador had mentioned a GER
tain pathetic picture of George III to
the kings great-granddaughter and in
talking of the lo%ng-ended bitter feel
ing between the United States and
Great Britain he said: ut is a re-
membrance of mine, now hard to real
ize, that l was brought up to abhor
the memory of George Ill" At this
the empress smiled and answered.

AS she looked about her, in the tan
sled aad shadowy forest, where the
night was already coming darkly, a
new terror arose within her, and she
sought to return by the way she had
come, but this was only to find her
steps cut of by still denser masses of
forest. growth. Even as she stood
hesitHting. there came a faint cry, like
thai of a child, and a rush of hopeful
ness thrilled her at the thought of
something human being near in the
gloom and oppressive stiffness.
Then there fell upon her a freezing

slaves telling recently of a panther's
voice having been heard at night, near
the settlement; and she remembered
that they had likened it to the crying

which way to turn, when another

thea another, as if the first call had
summoned a multitude of wolves to
the chase. But, for all her dainty fem
ininSty, she had a mans heart for
courage in the face of danger; and,
as she still kept on, with clenched
hands and painting breath, a small
cabin showed in a clearing before her.
A new strength came to her at sight
of this refuge, and she rushed toward
it, To find only In ~untenanted ruin,
with its door fallen from the hinges.
But she saw upon the floor a large
iron ring, which indicated the entrance

pulled at it with all her strength.

pasted sobbingly for breath.

Three commissioners representing

tract of land as large as Wales, which
the British government has offered
the Jews of all parts of the world as

go to the emperor l may find the op-
portunity for serving him; and that
this may prove to him the love that
has never died."
Perhaps" answered Pierre, hest
tatingly. "But what is it that makes
you think you may be of service to the
emperor and France?"
"To say truth, I have no idea that
is definite; but / feel an irresistible in
c1ination to go, and see if the oppor-
tunity offers"
"If you should find service over
there-then what?"
why" replied Jean, then you can
wind up our matters here, and come
over to join me. Why not?"
why not, indeed? That is assured
ly what would do, if" and Pierre
hesitated for an instant-"I could"
"And what can PREVENT"
"In such a case" Pierre replied de-
l%iberately, there would be a valuable
cargo to come with me, and watchful
enemies here to blind. Then possibly,
or most probably, by summer or fall,

waters around US, the safe getting

stretching himself. "Then all the more

obtaining it, that we should wish to
live somewhere else"
"Ah, but l am not saying that they

a showing of anger at thought of the
possibility suggested by jeans words.

smiled upon them as they gathered
around her.
Two of them, under Laftte's direc-
ton, made a seat of their ~interlocked
hands, and, bearing her between them,
set out for the house, with flaring
torches lighting the way.
. -
The proclamation of Gov. Claiborne
resulted in inducing Count de Gaze
neau to return to his New Orleans
home earlier than usual; and Laftte's
house in the city was closed, while a
trusted negro overseer was left in
charge Of the blacksmith shop, with
orders to say that his master had gone
away upon matters of business.
It was to Grande Terre that Pierre
had gone, feeling that a time was near
at hand for the joining of issues be-
tween his confreres and the govern
ment, and wishing, as always, to share
the fortunes of his foster brother.
On the western shore of Grande
| Terre, with several miles of forest
| living between it and De Cazeneau's
house. was the ~so-called "fort" of the
| Baratarians, standing upon a grassy
| eminence dotted with magnificent live
oaks, and terminating at a bluff not
many feet above the sea.
It consisted of a fair-sized building
and several smaller ones, all of wood,
enclosed within a stockade; and a
| few cannon protected the fleet-now
| consisting of two brigatines, some
| small schooners and sloops, and a
large number Of smaller craft-an-
| chored In the harbor at the rear of the
| island.
Outside the stockade we're many
| huts, constructed of logs, and with
| matched roofs, where were always
domiciled a small army of Laftte's
| retainers, while he-when at Grande
Terre-and a few of his %subleaders
had their quarters inside.
Shell Island, already mentioned, up
one of the almost inaccessible bayous,
was his most frequent abode, where
| he kept about him only a few devoted
| followers; and here, amid impene-
trable forests, was conducted the
building Of vessels.

Great Britain had been waging for a
