BRITISH PUBLIC IMPATIENT.
Probable That There Will Be Demand
g.. l,-.diate Release of Prisoners.

London. Oct. 30.-That the immedi-
ate release OF all British prisoners
will be insisted upon by the govern
ment as part OF the armtstice terms Is
confidently expected here. Sir George
Cave. the home secretary, announced
in the house OF commons yesterday that
the same conditions imposed on bul-
garia in this matter would be inslst-
ed u1on In any truce with Germany
or Austria. and General Aicnoy hlu
been instructed TO follow the sam"
policy in dealing with the TURKS.
There Is plenty of evidence trat
British prisoners have received worse
treatment throughout the war than
the others except the Russians.
Such a demand will be very I'M
portant factor and il Is not likely that
the Allies will show less regard FOR
their nationals who are suffering in
German camps. Events since the Ger
man peace ovcrturcs were launched
have not only tended TO instih any

leniency toward the enemy in British

Negro Soldiers Marooned.-There
was considerable concern in Asheville
yesterday on account Of 1000 negro
soldiers marooned in the Pisgah forest
by high water and destroyed bridges
The soldiers have been at work in the
forest for some months getting out
lumber for use in constructing and en-
larging aviation camps. The floods Of
last week washed away bridges and
cut the negroes of from supplies Also
1t Is understood that quite a number Of
mules were drowned. Just as the
streams were getting down to where
they could be crossed, the water began
rising again. It was thought that the
food supplies Of the soldiers was rum
ming low, and efforts were being made
to re-establish communication.

There is not nearly so much jubi-
lation in America because of victories
over the Germans as there was in
Germany because of victories over the
Allies. AS Il matter of fact, we have
not seen or heard of any disposition to
throw up hats, or anything like that.
But we are not surprised. The Amer
lean people have known all along that
they had big task that they would
have to attend TO. They never had any
idea but what they were going to do
the job: hut they were more or less
uncertain as to how long it might take.
They do not yet know how near they
are to peace: but they do know that
they arc making progress. And after
the job is complete. the American peo-
pie will still probably have too much
serious work on hand for great deal
OF jubilation.

The cotton market situation is like
this: With the French mills destroyed
the German and Austrian mills turned
into munition factories. and the Brit
ish mills short OF labor, and unable to
get raw cotton in sufficient quantity
from America, and the American mills
unable TO spin half the crop. the latter
are in Il position to buy raw material
almost at their own price and charge
their own price for the manufactured
product. That is about what they are
doing. There has never been such Il
world hunger for cotton goods. and If

rough fighting during the process. Both
men wore dress suits and merely box
ed easily. Corbett, himself, has said
since that right there was the time he
found out that he was Sullivan s mas
ter. With a certain amount of good for
tune, and the privilege to plan his bat
tie along scientific lines, the Californian
youth became convinced that he could
lay the %eonqueror of Paddy Ryan and
Jake Kilrain low.
There was a lot of difficulty in ar.
ranging this match, which brought a
long line of world championships to
America. Sullivan, growing older and
less effective, seemed to realize that he
was in no condition to engage in a long
match with any one. His cock-surene3s
however, finally got him to agree to the
meeting, and articles were signed calling
for a meeting between the two in New
Orleans on September 1896.
What happened in that bout is too
well known for any one to recount the
dramatic incidents which led up to the
fall of the old champion and the crown
ing of the new. Sullivan, broken down
by years Of hard living, succumbed to
a man better than himself ON that day,
although it is hardly probable Corbett
would have been able to defeat the Bos-
Strong Boy when the latter was at
the height of his career.
