LUDICROUS PRESS VIEWS THIS COUNTRY PICTURED AS EAGER fOR PEACE. Editors Continue to Predict Failure for the United States Military Movements in Cuba. Copyrighted, 153, by the Assoclated Press. BERLIN, July —The newspapers here continue to misunderstand or mis- interpret the temper of the Americans. They? assert that the latter are ready for peace on almost any terms, pro- viding Cuba is granted independence, and that the war is most unpopular, especially in business circles; and in spite of the phenomenal successes the Americans have aiready secured, the military editors continue to assert that the United States will find it more and more difficult to achieve an ‘“‘ultimate military success, especially in Cuba.” As a reason for the delay in pressing the German merchants’ claims for damages which are alleged to have arisen through the war in the Philip- pines, it is explained that the German Government considers that to push the claims now “while the Americans are more or less incensed against Ger- many” would prejudice a favorable settlement of the claims. It is now certain that ‘the Govern- ment will make a determined effo the coming Reichs! te amend the constitution in t direction of abridg- ing the franchise in several important particulars, esp i raising the age limit from Not only is the Conservative reactionary press vigorously advocating this as a necessary step in fighting the increas- ing spread of socialism, but the Gov- ernment press has joined in the hue and cry. It is also certain that at the next session of the Diet and Reichstag the agrarians will vigorously assault Amer- ican agricultural products. The agrar- ians are now collecting a mass of evi- dence tending to show the injury which has been caused to the home market | Among their arguments th allege that 50 per cent of the trichinosis in Germany is due to Amer- ican pork, although the latter is omy one-fortieth of the total German con- sumption. They also claim that Amer- ican rork contalns more trichinosis than the German, aud they allege that in spite of the fact that American pork is officially testified to be free from trichinae the Hamburg authorities have officially reported 173 cases of American trichinosis pork during the last six months. The Agrarians also assert that Amer- ican flour is arriving in a more and more frequently grossly adulterated condition, adding that the prevalling medium of adulteration are mineral- ines, which, they assert, are openly ad- vertised in American trade papers. Fina the Agrarians say that an ican canned and preserved meat of every description is arriving In a state unfit for human food. The Agrarians | claim to have abundant proof of their allegations and will ask the Govern- ment to totally exclude from Germany all the products mentioned. The leading organ of the Agrarians, th. Deutsche Tages Zeitung, asks | ether, “in view of the fact that a means to refuse Germany the rights of the most favored nation, after conciuding a new tarin bargain with France, the Government does not think | it time to open a spirited tariff war,” pointing out, for one thing, the “Amer- | ican bicycles ought to be taxed to a prohibitory duty.” The recent general meat imports has caused a rise in prices and 150 butchers of Hamburg and vicinity acknowledge their inabil- ity to sell meat except at 10 to 20 per | cent increase in price. A similar in- crease has already become effective in Berlin. The sensational suicide of General von Pechmann, the commander of the Fifth Bavarian Cavalry Brigade, at Dieuze, Lorraine, is much commented upon. It is understood that his act is ue to depression, caused by the ma- | levolence of a very high personage, who has repeatedly defeated his ad- vancement to a higher rank. All the principal comle papers in Germany were co ated this week on account of their publication of cartoons ridiculing the Emperor and the police. Some of these papers will be prose- cuted on the charge of lese majeste. Herr Lieber, the Centrist leader, has started for the United States. While the quarrel between Emperor William and the regent of Lippe-Det- mold is only a storm in a teacup, over a miserable question of court etiquette, it has occupled the press to the exclu- sion of almost everything else. A high officlal of the Ministry of the Interior has briefly outlined the facts in the case to the correspondent of the Associated Press. They are as fol- lows: The regent was already offended on account of varfous alleged slights, for which he blamed the Emperor, when the general commanding the troops in the principality ordered his soldiers henceforth not to make the salute pre- scribed in the case of ruling sovereigns or to show the customary marks of re- spect to the regent's family. The regent, thereupon, deeming his rights under the military convention of 1878 to have been slighted, appealed to the Emperor in a personal letter for re- dress. This letter contained several pas- sages which were construed by his Majesty to be purposely offensive, whereupon he sent the regent a tele- gram which traversed a dozen hands and thence reached the newspapers substantially verbatim. Then followed the deeply offended regent's appeal to the sovereigns of Germany and to the Bundesrath. The matter is expected to remain In statu quo for some time. The correspondent of the Associated Press learns from another source that Emperor Willlam’s anger was particu- larly aroused by certain references in the regent’s letter to the Empress and her family, a parallel being drawn on the question of rank in both cases, and prohibition of SITUATION FRANCE GROWS MORE CORDIAL Sentiment of Press and Officials. FRIENDSHIP FOR AMERICA DECLARE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD. Semi-Official Assurance That No Ob- stacle Will Be Placed in the ‘Way of Our Settlement of the War. Copyrighted, 183, by the Assoctated Press. PARIS, July 30.—There is a strong desire in French official circles to bring about a complete resumption of the pleasant relations with the United States which existed previous to the trouble between Spain and America, and which were disturbed by French newspaper utterances. It is pointed out that the nearer the Spanish-Ameri- can war comes to a close the clearer it is to sober-minded Frenchmen that pullic opinion in America has been mistaken in regard to the real opinion and feeling of France toward the United States. It is added that in spite of what was written in the news- papers here or discussed 1n official cir- cles when the war began no doubt was entertained anywhere in France as to the result of hostilities. The weakness and inferiority of Spain were so evi- dent that, it is claimed here, it would be unfair now to assert that the Ameri- can victories have caused a change of public opinion in France, and that the French newspapers to-day think it time to favor the conqueror. In explanation of the tone of the French press toward the United States, it is said that the language used by the newspapers at present is in sub- stance the same as was used three months ago, and that the reason the Ameican people have been under the impresgion that the French newspapers were hostile to the United States and favorable to Spain is that only the I:ss sensible part of the French press was quoted jn the cable dispatches, while such papers as the Journal de Debats, the Figaro and the Temps and sowe others have not favored either side in the war and have furnished their read- ers with honest accounts. of the differ- ent features of the hostilities. Continuing, it is argued that some of the leading members of the French press were interviewed during the war, and heir statements leave no room for doubt that they entertained a cordial feeling toward the United States, while French n siness men who were similar- ly interviewed were even more em- phatic in their expressions of friend- ship toward America. Finally, the Frenchmen say that the recent celebration of the Fourth of July here was the occasion of bringing forth additional proof of the cordial feeling entertained among Americans. At the banquet of the American Cham- ber of Commerce there were many prominent Frenchmen present, includ- ing some of the highest state officials, and M. Marujoule, the Minister Commerce, speaking for the French Government, sald: “We have been told that far away on the other side of the Atlantic there are those who have listened to calumni- ators in France who asserted that France was forgetful of her duty and that we have become not only adver- saries, but, according to some reports, even discourteous toward America. I protest against such an impression. My word is sufficient to dispel such a ridiculous idea, and I hope that the echo of what I say will be carried from this banquet hall to the other side of the Atlantic as an indignant protest against the false report as to the senti- ments of France toward America. “But if this is not sufficient, let meas- sure your countrymen that not a day, not an hour, not a minute has elapsed during which the harmony which ex- ists between us has ever run the risk of being broken. France has always been for vou a second country, and no one knows better than your Embassa- dor and a Minister of the French Cab- inet the degree of cordiality manifested in connection with our reciprocal rela- tions.” This rtatement of the French Minis- ter of Commerce is reproduced here, as it is being freely used by Frenchmen in their arguments tending to prove that France has not been unfriendly toward the United States in the war with Spain. z They also argue that there s no rea- son why France should side with Spain, as during the past century there has “been no common ideal” between the two countries, and the Frenchmen of to-day are not led by clerical consid- erations nor by the theory of so-called Latin races, which, it is further as- serted, is no longer taken seriously by any sensible man. From a semi-of- ficial source the following statement Vi ade: “f’.i-r’:m a commercial standpoint, France ie as much interested in Amer- jcan as in Spanish trade, and conse- quently she has no reason to jeopard- ize her friendly relations with the TUnited States. Still she feels sym- pathy for her unfortunate neighbor and rejoices heartily at the fact that peace is to be arranged and that the French Embassador, M. Cambon, had been the messenger of peace. “Ag to the terms upon which peace will be arranged, the French Govern- ment and public opinion in France are perfectly aware that the United States will no longer be satisfied with the mere independence of Cuba, consider- ing that the war has cost her consid- erable. Consequently, the French press, and especially the Journal des Debats and Temps are already taking into account that important element in the settlement of peace. They only hope that America will not claim too much. Not that France feels envious in view of the increasing power of the United States, but simply because too onerous conditions on the part of America would make peace difficult. In fact, it deserves to be pointed out that France does not make any objec- tion to the United = States increasing either its strength or its dominions. The reason for the quiet feeling of France In this matter is that she {s convinced that if such an increase in any way threatens European power his Meajesty’'s Ire was increased by the fact that the Legislature of Lipne-Det- mold, at the regent’s behest and with- out awaiting the direotion of the Bundesrath, passed a law in March prejudicing the chances of the succes- sion of Prince Adolph of Schaumburg- Lippe, Emperor William's brother-in- Llav” she is not that power. “Even the annexation of Hawalil, which gives: to the United States an important possession in the Pacific, has not disturbed France in the slightest degree, her possessions in America be- ing small and unimportant, consisting of some little {islands and French Guiana. Therefors, she feels sure that of | P L LT FIGHT-FIVE 'M‘ i Zantly M gmiay at $5.00. ADVERTISEMENTS. Greeted our WHE new styles, Scotches, in blacl serdes, $12, $15 an valwes, at 8I1.85.

It is somewhere in the bow of the ship. Whether this leak is due to a small valve being left open or to a hole which may have been made in the bow is not yet known.

Consequently what France wants, so far as the United States are concerned, is only a proper consideration of her commercial interests. In that respect she has been thoroughly reassured by the wilung- nese the American Government dis- prayed on the occasion of the last com- mercial agreement, so she is [ull of con- fidence n the future.” SRR ONE-MILE TRIPLET RECORD LOWERED PHILADELPHIA, July 30. —The world's triplet record of 1:46 2-5 for one mile Was to- day lowered to 1:40 2-5 by Johnson, Monroe and Farnwalt on the Woodside Park one-third mile board track.

SANTA CRUZ, July 30.—Two im- mense forest fires In this county are | doing tremendous damages. For two weeks a fire has been burning about eighteen miles from here in the Tim- othy Hopkins timber at the outer edge of the Big Basin at Sunnyside. Hundred of acres of the finest timber land in the county has burned over, in- cluding tanbark, which has never been cut from the trees. The fire at times threatened the Sun- nyside schoolhouse, and only by hard fighting was the building saved. large gang of men has been fighting the fire and in a measure has kept it from spreading, but great damage has been done. Beside the standing timber, much corded wood has been destroyed. The second conflagration is about six- teen miles from here and is along the Zyante. During the day clouds of smoke can be seen issuing from the canyons, while at night the flames can be seen from this city. This forest fire has covered about fifteen miles of ter- ritory along the Zyante. The sawmill and shingle mill near Zyante were de- stroyed. RED BLUFF, July 30.—Forest fires are raging in the vicinity of Bee Gum, Shasta County, and the whole Sacra- mento Valley is shrouded by smoke. These conflagrations occur almost every year and are the result of set- ting fires to clear the land for farming purposes. They soon become unman- ageable, with the result that thousands of dollars’ worth of valuable property in timber and feed is destroyed. During the past two days several thousand acres have been burned over. SALINAS, July 30.—The fire which started in Chualar Canyon last Wednesday was finally overcome this morning. The loss will be very heavy to stockraisers, as feed was totally de- stroyed on several ranches. The heav- fest losers are C. R. Esterbrook on 700, J. H. Hebbron on 300, and Assessor Mc- Phall of San Benito on 250 acres. Everything in the pathway of the flames was consumed. HIGHLAND SPRINGS, July. 30.— Forest fires have been raging in the vicinity of Highland Springs for sev- eral days, approaching dangerously near. A large body of men turned out to fight the destructive element, and it is now practically under control. The fire caused trepidation among the guests at the hotel, and many made preparations to flee to a place of safety. Many are de; g In fear of a fresh out;mk of the flames. STOCKTON, July 30—A chaparral Al over around Valley Springs fire, terribly destructive, swept the foothills licking up every bit of vegetation in an area estimated at fifteen miles square. flames moved over the parched ground like an angry wave, leaving il black and charred—so barren, in fact, that a srow cannot find sustenance there to- ay. Just where the fire started is not | known. The flames moved so rapidly that the people had no time to prepare to make a systematic fight. The people found all they could do was to save property by back firing, it being use- | less to try to stay the line of fire, which | licked up barns, outhouses, fences, and | several dwellings. The fire ran to within a half mile of Valley Springs in several places and but for the back firing would probably have reached the settlement. After nightfall the sight from Valley Springs was one of awful grandeur. Flames seemed to leap to the sky, run- ning hither and thither, wherever there was a bit of fuel to be seized upon. They would disappear down a ravine and sweep up a hiiltop a minute later fiercer, heavier than ever. The coun- try was as bright as day. The officials have been investigating, and are sure the fire was started by prospectors with criminal disregard for ife and property. It is, of course, :m- possible to prospect chaparral land un- | til it is cleared. ~The officers have a | clew tending to show that certain per- sons fired the country for this purpose. hard with the men when they are ar- rested. LOS ANGELES, July 30.—Forest fires are now surging over the moun- tains west of Mount Lowe, in the vi- cinity of Millard Canyon. Two representatives of the United States Forestry Commission have gone | into the mountains with a number of men to fight the flames. Receiver Tor- rance of the Mount Lowe Railroad has sent a force of men. The latest report from the burning mountains says the absence of wind has allowed the fire to smolder and burn less fiercely.
