 RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. 22.-Mes- sages from Pernambuco says that the German commerce destroyer has been sunk by the British.
 The report reached Pernambuco by the wireless union of Brazil. It was heard that the German raider was sunk in the Atlantic one hundred and thirty miles off Para, The British cruiser Glasgow was said to have run it down and shot if full of holes in a brief engagement.
 No report can be obtained from any of the British consular agents who have been receiving cipher dispatches but as this is in line with the policy of the British admiralty, to withhold all statements regarding the destruc- ton of enemy ships, 1t has no bearing on the truth of the report.
 It is believed In official quarters tha the rumor Is based on fact and that at least one of the German raid- CTS has been sent to the bottom.

GRANDEES OF SPAIN.
Curious Hat Etiquette That Marks

 Their Three Classes.
 A grandee nf Spain enjoys the privi. iege. granted him many hundreds of years ago. of remaining covered in the presence of his sovereign. This custom dates from the period when, according to the theory then held. the king was "the first among equals"
 The ancient formula always at the coronation of the kings of old Spain was I've. your equals. choose you to reign over us" And the king assented in this declaration of his nobles.
 There was q time when all grandeeS of Spain wore their hats ill the pres ence of the king. but in time the idea of caste began to prevail even among the granlceS. with the result that they were eventually divided into three classes. and these classes were distin gnished by the hat etiquette.
 The first class entered the royal pres. uncovered and. after an advance of a few steps. put on their hats, mbiddcn by the king. and the third class uls', entered uncovered. but did not cover until requested to do so by the king. Then. according to the etiquette. "ali were equal"
 There have been grandees who were not SpaniardS. notably the Duke Of Wellington. upon whom the Cortes con !erred the houor in recognition of his services tO the state.

B. F. WILLARD EXPRESSES
 VIEWS ON ARBITRATION

B. F. Willard, the we'll known Alas kan mine operator in a recent letter to the Mining Congress says:
 "I most heartily agree with your taking up the matter in Congress and in every State in the Union in the matter covering strikes and lockOuts. I have always contended that if all parties interested in the labor ques- ton exhibited a desire to be fair that all difficulties could be adjusted and settled by arbitration.
 "I have employed labor for thirty years, sometimes having as high as 800 men under me. I never have had a strike or lockout-not only that, l have been on both sides of the question-for many years I labored for others; in those days. however, strike was never thought of, the em- ployer hired and discharged men to suit his own convenience and always paid just as little wages as possible. ~ lumber company I have hired for them hundreds of men at from S1 to $2O per month and board and work ed them from 1 ? to 13 hours day.
 Those days have passed and labor and capital are getting closer togeth- CT. Brute force is no longer the slo- gan. Foremer are not hired because they are pugilists. Labor is coming into its own. Capitalists have rcceiv- ed a great jolt. and have come to the conclusion that it is better to feed and house men well and comfortably and treat them as human beings. The only question is the wage. Capital and labor differ upon this question and always will. We will always have big corporations and poverty, and right at this point is where arbi- tration will come in. All fair-mind- ed men should be willing to leave their affairs, or rather disputes, to a competent body of disinterested men.
 
 iheir decision.
 -VN"The disputants are not the only ones interested or injured by strikes and lockouts but it carries to those directly interested in the disputes, anI great body of American citizens no; some means ought to be provided whereby both parties to dispute should be held up until their grieV- anccs could be passed upon by an in- telligent body of disinterested citizens and sooner or later it must come to that. Do all you can to assist in pass ing an arbitration law that would have a tendency to. give full justice ii both capital and labor and the great body of Onlookers. You can draw oE me for any assistance that it IS in my lower to give"
