Can you inform me what is the lon
Best word in the English language? If
not, could you please tell me word of
twenty one or more letters?
The longest word in the language Is
a meaningless word which Shakespeare
puts In the mouth of one of his charac-
tiers. In Loves Labor's Lost Co.'S
tard the clown says, Il marvel that
thy master hath not eaten thee for
word, for t*ju art not so long by the
head as cabilitudinitatibus,
twenty-seven letters strung together
without meaning. There are many
words in the language of sixteen TO
nineteen letters and few of twenty,
as incomprehensibleness and incontro-

Some writer stated that Grant so Bit
terly opposed the terms of surrender
that Sherman was willing to accept
from General Joe Johnston that Sher-
man never spoke to Grant after that.
Please state whether that is reliable
history.
There is no confirmation of such a
statement either in contemporaneous or
later history. When General Sherman
sent the terms of Johnston's surrender
to Washington they We're disapproved
by President Andrew Johnson, and
General Grant was Immediately sent
TO Sherman's headquarters in North
Carolina to conduct the proceedings of
surrender. This order was carrie3out,
and new terms of surrender were ar
ranged, practically the same that Grant
had given Lee. There was no evidence
Of friction between Grant and Sher.
man then or afterward, and Sherman
knew that the dfsapproval of the terms
of surrender which he had granted
came from President johnson and cab
met and not primarily from General
Grant, There was no rupture between
Grant and Sherman.

Did the public lands of the United
States ever sell for less than SIPS an
acre?
Yes. In July, 1857, after the Revo-
lutionary war, but before the constitu-
ton was adopted, the price of public
land was GO % cents an acre, and large
tracts in what was called the north
west territory-that is, northwest of
the Ohio river-were sold at that price.

Disposed to Credit, Report.

WASHINGTON July ,.-statc De-
partmcnt officials arc disposed to
credit the report to-day that Germany
proposes TO inauEuratc At once a new
submarine campaign in retaliation for
Great Eritain's announcement that She
will no longer observe the Declaration
OF London
As English authority and Continental
authorities generally agree to the
Declaration OF London as sound in
ternational law. Germany was willing
at the outbreak of tho war 10 abide by
IT for the determination of intcrna-
tionai questions. Great Britain how
ever. told the United states She would
not abide by il. and ever since then il
has been modified according TO the
eNisencies of the allies
One Of tho State Department officials
said to-day that Germany we'll might
be expected to reopen her submarine
campaign inasmuch as the understands
ing. ever since Lord Cccils statement in
Parliament. has been that Great Brit
ain proposed TO substitute a new order
in council, setting forth what is in
tcrnaHonal law. The State Department
has not received the text Of the order.
1t is stated. however, that in case
a new issue should arise between Ger
many and the United states because of
the new order in council, the United
states would not necessarily be bound
by it If il did not conform TO the de-
par'mcnt's view of international law.
IL is stated that any now case between
Germany and the United states will be
settled on the lines that have been laid
down in this country's various notes to
Germany and the construction OF in
ternational law as found on the Ger
man side in the replies OF Germany up
to date
