A story that went the rcunds of the army aud navy circles to day brought out the spirit that makes the Anglo-Saxon go to war with all of his might. This story relates to the I.afayette, the French liner which so insolently tried to force her way through the blockade and was stopped, taken to Key West as a prize released on orders from Washington and escorted back to Havana. Now it ia told in sucha way that army and navy eflicials be- lieve it, that ihe Lafayette unloaded at Havana guns and ammunition. It is said that between fifty and sixty expert French artilleries left the steamer at Havana to accept service with the Spanish army ia Cuba. Asthe American officers talked to-day about this act of treachery, their lower jaws came out with vin- dictiye determination and their lips were compressed. The Lafayette was permitted to pass into Havaua as an act of courtesy. The French ambassador called at the department of state and made the request that the liner be admitted to land some mail and to let off »ome French cit- izens, and this is said to have been the result The government is in- vestigating. If the report which comes from Key West is confirmed, there will be a demand upon France for an explanation and perhaps indemnity, while America will go to war with a little more power in the right arm. There have been other evidences that France sympathizes with Spain. These evidences are receiving additions daily. A publi- cation of Paris, the crgan of the diplomatic circles, was received at the department of state today. It was full of sneering comments on the motives of the United States in going to war about Cuba. MAY BEA WORLD’S WAR. } An English Paper Thinks England and America Will Fight as Allies. London, May 12.—The St. James’ Gazette this afternoon says: ‘Im- portant signs of the uneasiness of Europe, of its fear of anarchy at bome and aggression abroad, are reflected in London financial circles. Russia is raising a loan of 60 million dollars, and, more significant still, she is raising it in Germany. The Bank of Ergiand is directing its energies to the accumulation of a gold reserve, a fashion without re-| cent preceden:; while Japan, not content with the vast sum she received from China, on Saturday, is preparing for a fresh loan of 15 million pounds The rapport | between Germany and Russia and Russia and Austria is very marked.” All this, St. James’s Gazette believes, portends a combination against America and Great Britain, | as “we are universally regarded as | forming s part of the transatlantic | aggression on Europe.’ and the| article warns Great Britain to ‘pre- pare for astruggle which may in- volvs the most important events since the fall ef Napoleon.” In conclusion, the Gazette re- | Farragut. her claim on | Citing independence of Corea and German interests in those islar 1 to refrain from all Diplomats who are ina pe in tbe ioternal |to know the facts in the case er country the report that Germany may _Desiring to oid every }mand exclusive control of Samoa as understanding the price of her acquiescence to ne foture, Russiaand J: .
