BREST, France, Oct. 26.—Presiding at the launch to-day of the armored cruiser Leon Gambetta, the Minister of Marinc, M. de Lannesan, said she was one of a new contingent of upward of 100 warships, each of which will possess perfect fight- ing qualities. Unless unforeseen difficul- ties occurred abroad the naval pro- gramme would be completed in the fime fixed by the Chamber, and then France would enjoy at gea the same security that her numerous olid battalions assured her on the Continent of Europe. ‘While the French vessels were more costly they were also worth more than the ships of other maritime nations, he said. The French nmavy was directing its efforts to the fighting quality of its ships, rather than to numbers. Only strong nations could hope to honorably preserve peace and liberty. POSITION IN EUROPE FOR A STATE OFFICIAL Third Assistant Secretary Cridler ‘Will Be Louisiana Purchase Ex- position Commissioner. WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.—The State De- partment is about to lose the services of Thomas W. Cridler, Third Assistant Sec- retary of State. He has accepted the po- sition as European commissioner of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, a post which affords nearly double the compen- sation of his present position and for which Cridler is fitted by reason of his good acquaintance abroad and his connec- ton with the last Paris Expositon, as a successor to the late Moses P. Handy. Cridler was appointed from West Vir- ginia a clerk in the State Department in October, 1875, and has been continuously in its services up to the present. He be- came Third Assistant Secretary of State in April, 1897. It is uuderstood Cridler's successor will be Herbert H. D. Pierce, at resent secretary of the Embassy at St. etersburg. He is a mative of Massachu- setts and entered the diplomatic service in 1894, He retired in January, 1898, but re- entered the service three months later on March 15, being appointed secretary to the St. Petersburg Embassy. & /mumity Ends a Convention.

MADRID, Oct. 26.—In the Senate to- day Senor Molina interrogated the Gov- ernment regarding the negotiations be- tween Spain and-the United States for a commercial treaty and the earnest desire ‘of the shipping interests of Porto Rico that a_treaty be concluded. The Foreign Minister replied that the Government wished to do everything to promote national prosperity. Gives American Equivalent. WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.—General Wade has issued a circular in Southern Luzon doing away with the Spanish title of “don, senor, senora and senorita,” and 'ving for those appellations the American Squlv‘alem of Mr., Mrs. and Miss. DUSKY KING PUEILES THEM Londoners Baffied by a ' Mysterious Visitor’s Conduct. ——— Opulent Personage With His Suite Will Visit New York. e LONDON, Oct.26.—*Prince Ranji, of Be- luchistan,” who to an unusual extent Las succeeded .in exciting and bafling Lon- don’s curiosity, and who is variously de- scribed as' an Indian potentate and a prince of Siam, safled October 24 from Liverpool for Montreal on the steameér Lake Simcoe, whence he is going to New York, accompanied by a dusky suite num- bering twenty-eight persons. He lived a fortnight in all the splendor | of Oriental opulence at a fashionable Lon- don hotel, where he had dx;?ped in un- announced and unconcernedly engaged twenty-three rooms. . In spite of the publicity which such an arrival was ound to create, he has left England as much in the dark as to his identity as when he arrived. The Indfa Office has 1s- sued an official announcement that there is no such Indian chief as ‘“Prince Ranji of Beluchistan,” bit neither condemmns the mysterious stranger nor clears up his identity, as Ranji is palpably an assumed name. When interviewed in London, where he by no means courtéd publicity, Prince Ranji declined to say whence he camse, but he once oracularly remarked: “I am a king.” Whether he is or is not a king, he certainly lived like one, spending enor- mous sums of money. The retinue which sailed with him included musicians who produced from weird instruments still more weird sounds. A dancing girl formed a prominent part of the daily entertair- ments which the suite provided for thair master, who spent most of his time in bed. He is a man of fine physique, dark- skinned and handsome. All his food was prepared in accordance with the strici- est Oriental usages by his own servants, who wore gorgeous robes and were night- ly marshaied by a major-domo for cx- ercise in an adjoining park. This mysterious party will, it is_sa:d, make a tour of Canada and the United States, returning to England in time for King Edward’s corondtion. CARNEGIE IN FAVOR OF AMERICAN CANAL Former Steel Magnate Asserts That Great Britain Has Displayed Good Judgment. LONDON, Oct. 26.—Andrew Carnegie an- nounced last night that he will preserve an impartial attitude in relation to the municipal campaign in New York. Deal- ing with the Nicaragua Canal question, Carnegie said: “‘Great Britain has acted with rare good sense. The canal ought to be American— built with American money and by Ameri- can workmen and American brains—and now it will be. There is no doubt Great Britain will eventusfly be the greatest beneficiary, and will have no reason to re- pent the course she has adopted.” In regard to the rumors of a possible English_steel trust, Carnegie laughingly declared he was now.out of the business and did not know or care anything more about it.

GERMANS WATCH UNITED STATES Pan-American Congress Is Causing Much Discussion/ Dr. Wagner Would Like to See the Burial of the . Monroe Doctrine. BERLIN, Oct. 26—The Pan-American Congress at the City of Mexico has caused much press discussion here, the general tone of which is belittling and skeptical of its success. It s interpreted as being 2 scheme of the United States to increase its influence over Latin America. An al- llance between the United States and the latter is regarded as chimerical, owing to the radical differences, the only con- nection between them being pronounced to, be merely geographical. ‘Theréfore,” says the Berlin Neueste Nachrichten, “Pan-Americanism ‘is more lacking ‘in a practical basis than Pan- Slavism.” The paper continues: ‘The Pan-Ameri- can-idea. is solely capable of development upon the basis of the subjection of all Amerlca to the hegemony of the United States. The republics of Anglo-Saxon and Latin America differ so greatly respecting territorial conditions ang the composition of the populations that a closer union is only conceivable upon the pre-supposition of a decisive predominance of the United States.” Dr. Hans Wagner discusses the subject at length in Der Tag. He says the Mon= roe doctrine no longer means America for Americans, but North Americans. Dr. Wagner hopes for an international com- mission which will prepare a well merited grave for the Monroe phrase. No Harsher Policy. The Cologne Volks Zettung calls this Utopian, and also regards Dr. Wagner as being wrong in thinking President Roose- velt “intends to adopt a harsher policy toward Great Britain, since the latter has already conceded ail that the United States wants. The Cologne Volks Zeltung refers to al- leged attempts In American newspapers to create an anti-German sentiment by the assertion that Germany wants to es- tablish colonies in South America, ad- mitting that the Pan-German newspapers have given abundant cause therefor. The paper classifies the whole idea as being among the most splendid castles built in the air. The Cologne Volks Zeitung also says it will ‘be one hundred to one that suspicions will- be cast upon Germany’s policy because she has decided to estab- lish an information bureau in Berlin for emigrants, under the management of an ofiicial who was formerly a German Con- sul in South America. Colonial affairs and the establishment of the emigration bureau have been wide- ly discussed during the week. The ob- Jject of the bureau is to guide German emigration into the colonies, but the press is largely skeptical of its success. Professor Hans Meyer, who has traveled in the colchies, recently wrote a_series of articles for the Taegliche Rundschau, arguing in favor of a padical change in the system of governing the colonies. He says -the Government must abandon the centralization which at: Berlin holds the colonies in bonds, claiming it is better to give them self-government;and to abolish the imperial appropriations for the col- onies, except in the case of providing for the troops and naval stations for their protection. Would Injure Colonies. The Colonial Zeitung, organ of the Co- lonial Bureau and the Colonial Secretary, rejects Professor Meyer’'s plans, which it says would injure the colonies immensely. The Freisinnige Zeitung points to the fact that self-government is .impossible for German East Africa, since there are only 28 Germans_there. The Taegliche Rundschau asserts that the present system of governmenj from Berlin has not satisfied the friends of the colonies and that Germans who live in Africa are affected by colonial pessim- ism. The paper adds that the present state of things cannot be improved by festivities, patriotic speeches and the cir- culation of literature. The Freisinnige Zeitung indorses the above remarks, but says the fault is not with the system of government, but in the fact that these African colonies, ex- cept in quite unimportant districts, are wholly worthless and cannot be improved by any sort of recipe. Alma Stencel of San Francisco, who is only 13 vears of age, made her debut here to-night, appearing at a concert with the Philharmonic Orchestra. Miss Stencel was highly successful.

The pro- Flmne included an address by Charles % Th'i&l'. president of the Western Re- serve University, on *‘The Dest a National Unlversity. of SERIDS CHRGE CAISES BREAC Relations Between Eng- land and Holland Are Strained. : Pl SR Conduct of the South African ‘War Continues to Worry Britain. —_— LONDON, Oe¢t. 2.—A special from Brus- sels says: Thé relations between Holland and Great Britain again appear to be somewhat strained. According to intel- ligence which is being circulated here, Great Britain asked Holland to recall her Consul at Pretoria because he was sus- pected of facilitating treasonable corre- spondence. Holland has given the Consul indefinite leave of absence. A Pletermaritzburg special says: Lord Alfred Milner, ' replying to an address from the corporation, said he hoped his visit to Natal would lead to 2 few tenta- tive steps in the direction of his desire, “‘peaceful and. prosperous South Africa; one great community under the British flag. But,” added Lord Milner, “let us not count on'it comihg in a hurry.” Conduct of the Boer War. There is no_end of criticism current ge- garding the Government’s conduct of the war in South Africa, but it emanates chiefly from those whom Chamberlair in | his speech last night characterized as his candid friends. The outcry does not ap- pear to strengthen in the slightest the chances of the Liberal party. R. C. Lehmann, who has just resigned the editorship of the Daily News, in an article in this week's Speaker admits that he sees no hope for Liberalism until it has acquired and put forward a strong, definite policy in regard to South Africa. To do this, he confesses, would mean tie | loss to the party of some of its most prominent supporters, but he maintains that even this is better than the present impotency. Government Alone Responsible. One of the striking signs of disconteat within the circles traditionally Gov mental is found in the fact that the Cam- bridge Union has pas a resolution -to the effect that the Gcvernment alone is responsible for the prolongation of the war. This aristocratic debating soeiety is composed mainly of those who are re- lated or acquainted with the ruling ciass and who have hitherto always warmly supported the Government's South Afri- can policy. A reversal of feeling in such a great university as Cambridge means, | | perhaps, more than any demonstrations | or_political meetings. 1 Rumors werg rife regarding Cabineti changes during the early part of the week. It was persistently said that bi." Michael Hicks-Beach, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whose relations with Chamberlain have never been cordial, was determined to step out. and Hanbury, the president of the Board of Agricultur was sald, was to succeed him. Inquirie: made, however, point to the fact that Sir Michael will remain in office, though not very willingly, and that no serious Cabi- net shake-up is likely to occur in the near future. @ Al UNIONS IN THE EAST TALKX OF A STRIKE Iabor Organizations of Fall River Fail in Demand for Increase in Wages. ! FALL RIVER, Mass., Oct. 26.—A meet- | ing of the Textile Council, at which all | the unions in the city were represented, | was held to-night, the letter of the manu- | facturers refusing an advance in wages | being discussed at length. The council | decided that it would leave the matter of a strike pntirely in the hands of the unions, which action is in line with their previous determination. It was decided | to hold general meetings of all the unions | next Wednesgay night, at which time ac- | tion will be'taken. it is said there is little “doubt that this action will be a vote to strike. { There is a strong sentiment here against a strike, owing to the effect it will have cn all classes of business. The manu- facturers do not take this view, however, and believe the operatives will strike. It | is possible that the Spinners’ Union may | vote not to strike. This, however, will have no bearing upon the action of the other unions, as it has been decided that in case four of the five unions vote to strike the vote shall become operative. —_———— STEAMER REACHES PORT WITH FIRE IN THE HOLD Imperiled Spanish Craft Arrives at| Barcelona and German Vessel Is Damaged.

Striving for Molineux’s Release. NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—Counsel for Ro- land B. Molineux to-day served notice of a motion to quash the indictment against Molineux. The motion will come up be- fore Judge McMahon in the Court of Ge eral Sessions next Wednesday. The mov- ing papers urge the dismissal of the Molineux indictment on the ground of jl- legal and insufficient evidence. In the event of a denial of the motion to quash the- indictment, there is an _alternative motion for an Inspection of the minutes of the Grand Jury that indicted the de- fendant.

Two wonderful new books entitled “‘Sus cess and How to Win It” and “The Secret of Power” have just been issued at an expense of over $5000 by one of the lead- ing colleges of the city of New York.
