BRITAIN's FAVOR TO DEWEY.
Earl rey Recalls Battle Of Manila u
Criticisjno U-53 Activities.

crticisins U53 Activities.
ICorrespondence Of Associated Press.l
London, Oct 19.-During the discus
sion in the house Of lords on Monday
last regarding the operations OF the
German submarine U-53 off the coast
of the United States, Earl Grey, form
err governor general Of Canada, in ask
ing for assurances that reports re-
garding the conduct Of commanders Oh
American destroyers in this connection
were incorrect, gave an interesting &C
count of a conversation he had with
admiral Dewey as to the action OF
Captain Chichester Of the British navy
in Manila Bay at the outbreak OF the
Spanish merican war.
Abiding to the question put by Bar
on Charles Beresford to Viscount Grey,
the foreign secretary, with regard 10
the German submarine operations
which Viscount Grey subsequently an
swered. Earl Grey said:
my lords. before the secretary OF
state for foreign affairs answers the
question put to him by the noble ana
gallant lord, should like to be allowed
to ask a supplementary question OF
which I have given. the noble viscount
private notice. namely. whether there
is any truth in the statement in the
press of Tuesday. Oct. 10, that the
commander OF the German submarine
U-5S asked the commanders OF the
American -destroyers Denham ana
Macdonald to clear out Of the way so
that he might have room to blow up
the ships he was attacking. and wheth-
er 1t Is true that the American de-
stroyers promptly acceded to the Ger
man request?
81 sincerely hope the noble viscount
will be able to assure the house that
there is no truth in the statement that
American destroyers deliberately
moved out of their position in the open
| sea III order to enable the German sub
marine to sink the merchant vessels,
1 both British and neutral which they
desired to attack.
IT hope l may be permitted to quote
an illustration OF the way in which this
spontaneous mutual service has had
far-reaching effects in prom citing good
will between America and England. In
1905 had the honor Of meeting Ad-
miral Dewey and some distinguished
members of the American senate at
dinner in Washington. On that occa-
sion Admiral Dewey narrated to me
the way in which he had received in
valuable assistance from Captain Chi
chester at Manila at a time Of great
anxiety.
Admiral Dewey informed me that
| the presence at Manila Of German
| cruisers with a heavier displacement
than that Of the American ships
caused him to realize the grave char
acter Of the danger menacing his coun-
| try in the event Of the German ships
beginning the hostile action of which
he at the time had reason to be APP
| prehensive.

To Keep Skin Healthy
Youthful, Wrinkleless

Now that the social season is here,
be especially careful to keep your skin
in fine condition. You know how con-
spicuous complexion defects appear
under the bright light of the draw
ing or ball room. Also how very evil
dent are some makeups when simil-
arly illuminated. I have myself dis
carded cosmetics entirely, using pro-
cess which gives far better results,
and which leaves no trace on the skin.
At night smear on thin coat of or
binary mercolized wax, washing it off
next morning. This gradually absorbs
the devitalized particles Of surface
skin; just as gradually the more youth
full skin beneath comes forth, provid-
ing complexion as clear, smooth and
delicately tinted as a young girls
Get an ounce of mercolized wax at
your druggists and try this remarkable
treatment
Remember, too. that wrinkles, even
the finer lines, are not easily con-
oealed in brilliantly lighted room.
You can quickly obliterate these hate
full marks by bathing your face in 4
solution of powdered saxolite, one
ounce, dissolved in witch hazel, one
half pint And your face won't look
sticky, as after using pastes-Aunt
