CLEARED FOR ACTION
CHINESE CRUISERS PREPARE TO
-, DRIVE RUSSIANS FROM
h SHANGHAI WATERS.

London, May 27.-The Shanghai
correspondent of the Daily Express
says:
All the Chinese cruisers in these
waters cleared for action Saturday and
the taotai went to the Russian consul
late and demanded that the Russian
ships leave within twenty-four hours"
Cabling from Shanghai, the CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail says he be-
lieves the vessels of the Russian Bal
tic squadron off Saddle islands have
proceeded on their voyage and gives
rumor that the remainder of the
Russian feet is in the neighborhood
Of Suchan, province of Shangti.
The correspondent says that Presi-
dent Roosevelt has wired the viceroy
and the taotai commenting their steps
to preserve Chinese neutrality.
Shanghai, May 27.-The Russian
war vessels that were off the Saddle
Islands left Friday night.
The Chinese authorities ordered the
vessels of the Russian fleet, which
were anchored off Woosung to leave
within twenty-four hours. The Rus.
SLAMS thus far have entirely ignored
the order.

SUNDAY, JULY %. 1905.

The tendency of some noVelistS and critics to
assume that gloom and strength" are Synony
nous, has often moved us to express surprise.
The latest manifestation of this queer mode of
thinking has occurred in relation TO GisSing S
poSthumOus novel, "Will WarburtOn.' AS we
pointed out in reviewing that capital book, it
showed that he had obtained firmer grasp on
the truth of things, that he had broadened and
mellowed In the cheerful spirit of the work,
so different from the spirit of his earlier writ
ings. we recognized an increase in real strength
But to our astOnishment the book has been re-
gret. POrtentOus reviewers have perceived in
the authors optimism signs of a serious declen-
sion from the power which he exercised in his
goomier novels. A Grass belief in drearneSs
as in itself n precious literary quality has
blinded these wiSeacreS to a distinct improve
ment in Gissing'S art. We glad to see that
among his cOuntrymen the book has had better
luck "The AthenGum' speaks of its showing
that he had advanced in the knowledge of his
art and of life considerably further than when
he wrote Demos or New Grub Street -: al
ludeS further to "a gain in power, in grasp and
in sympathy" and concludes by saying that 1t
is sad to think that what is, in some respects,
his best work. should also be his last" Else
where we have observed similarly appreciative
remarks. We rejoice in them as antidoteS to
the misrepresentation of the apostles of NOR
bidity.

An explorer of old book stalls coming upon

dresses was struck in re-reading the famous

nevertheless won fame and good deal of
money by their venture. he wondered III the lit

up at regular intervals. Only the other day
Lord Rosebery was aIluding to the astonishing
