It was one of his keenest dtenppointrr.ent.4 not to bo allowed to serve In South Africa. TJut he was not only a Just and enlightened ruler.

"With Bryan went hi daughter, and the prince fell desperately in love with her, proposed and was accepted.

Tlioriiycroft Think They fan Be Easily Pnt Oat of the AVny. LONDON. Nov. ll.-Mr. Thornycroft. England's torpedo boat builder, has been expressing Interesting opinions on submarine boats. He does not believe it necessary for Great Britain to build submarine boats, even if the experiments of other nations have been rpulte successful. He Is carefuly studying the problem of devising a submarine destroyer, should it ever be necessary. He regards the American submarine boat as the best type yet made. But he doubts Its efflcaey, even for harbor defense. "A shell dropped in the neighborhood of a submarine boat," said Mr. Thornycroft, "and exploded, either level or below it. would arTord sufficient shock to crumble up the boat. Possession of a submarine boat 'of your own will not help you to tind an enemy's. They are at present of too limited range and lnsufttcicnt propelling power to be really a serious factor, and the unsatisfied problem of keeiing a level keel under water is yet to be solved. If 1 ever have to go under water with a submarine boat I will prefer to sit outside." In spite of the pessimistic opinions of Mr. Thornycroft. the British Admiralty has nt last decided to grant a submarine boat, designed by J. F. Howard, of Tasmania, an ollicial trial. ATTENDANCE SMALL. The . IIlspnno-Amerlean Congress Something; of a Fizzle. MADRID, Nov. 10. Many of the delegates to the Spanish-American Congress have not yet arrived here. Cuba nnd Porto Rico are not represented officially, though private corporations have Fent delegates. The non-arrival of many of the delegates lias inspired fear that the congress will be a 'lizzie." The Liberal sounds a note of alarm and urges the congress to workearnestly t secure the unity of all the Latin people of America, adding that if the labors of the congress are abortive the result will be to the advantage of the United States. Senor Campos, minister of foreign "affairs, and Senores Sllvela and Sagasta made addresses at to-day's session of the Spanish-American congress. Gen. Azcarruga. the premier, delivered an academic discourse. He dilated upon the theme that the closest unions are borne of love, not force, and said the questions to be discussed by the congress were of great Importance, because they synthesized th Intellectual, political and commercial life of the great Spanish race. The premier predicted that the congress would be an entire success. The most noteworthy speeches were those of Scnor Sierra, the delegate from Mexico, and Senor Callada. from Buenos Ayres. The former said that if union were locking the Latin republics were lost, and the latter declared that every SpanishAmerican ought to swear to defend hi country and race and euloglred the Cubans and the Filipinos for wishing to preserve Spanish nationality. Docs Xot Fear American Competition. LONDON. Nov. 10. The determination of the American steel manufacturers to invade these markets is not apparently worrying the English trade to any great extent, judging from the opinion of a master cutler from Sheffield, tho head of one of tho greatest steel organizations in the country, who said to a representative of the Associated Press: ' "I do not believe American trade in steel rails in Lngland will ever amount to much. Kvery manufacturer gets a certain surplus, which. If ho can tlnd a market. Is clear profit. We aio retting the American surplus, and believe they are selling cheaper here than in their own country. When such competition bocomes serious it will be necessary for the American manufacturers to devote more than their surplus to this market "When, they do I believe they will find they caarot beat us in prices or quality on our own ground. Business here is as good a. ever and ;rores to remain so. I cannot Eay v.e have yet felt the pinch of American rivalry." Tvro Innovation. LONDON, Nov. 10. Those who have lang Agitated against the decking of horse tails havo won a great victory. The Queen. In sending out an order that none of her horses should be treated In that way, also announced; that sh had persuaded the Prince of Wales to follow her example. "With royalty taking up such a . vigorous stand It is likely that the docked horse rill soon be as rare in London as fulltailed horses are at present. Another startling change in appearances is the Prince of Wales's wearing eye's glasses. The future king has long en1oyed good eyesight, but now, on the advice of an eminent occulist. he has had recourse to thLs fashionable form of spectacles. They are selected from the best obtainable lenses, are framed In tortoise phell and form an altogether elaborate addition to th royal countenance. Chnrcli I'nlon Oppnned In IHgrlilands. LONDON.

The rau2c of the opera 1 by Claude Nucent. Both Grotiniith-father

and son were In the cast. The music and the libretto both apoear amateurish. Such honors as were afforded were divided between Mr. John Coates and Miss Jeanne Bouste. The costumes were bright and the piece was prettily riaged, but ,the opera lack the force necessary to a permanent success. Miss Ietty Und, who never aspired to Mictess as a linger. was unfortunately limited in her vocal efforts and had r.o chance to show her skill as a dancer, for which she Is famous. Just why she selected the part is a mystery which the audience failed to solve.

Throughout the proceedings he showed no bravado, but, on the contrary, appeared timid, though he maintained an Impassive demeanor. Britonn Wearing Yankee Shoe. LONDON, Nov. K'.-The latest discovery of successful American enterprise in England Is in the boot and shoe trade. Daily the American article is gaining headway. One agent, after three years' work, got 1,2) large customers, -his turn-over this year amounting to many thousands or pounds. According to the Daily Mail, the ability of the American tirms to compete so successfully is chiefly due to the "superiority of the American lasts where modeled on the human foot, and also to the large outputs of well-regulated factories, in which work is done by the piece. Instead of on time, as prevails in Great Britain, with tho very latest machinery." IIIntnrlK Clinreli Mny Tic Jletroyed.

What makes the church of interest to Americans is the tablet erected to the memory of Colonel Legge, who married Eliza Washington, who died in 1C70, surmounted by the Washington arms, consisting of five alternating bars of red and white, above which are live-pointed red stars. These, it is said, suggested to George Washington the American national flag. Snakes Found, in Ireland. LONDON, Nov. 10.

Xcit York Police; Interdicted the Show and the Beds in Turn Denounced the Authorities. NEW YORK, Nov. 10. The police tonight refused to allow the Italian Anarchists of this city to give a play entitled "A Man Without a Country," in the Germanic Assembly rooms on the Bowery, because the Italians had neglected to get a theatrical license. A number of policemen and detectives stood at the door of the assembly rooms and turned away all comers who had come to witness the performance. The play was in commemoration of the thirteenth anniversary of the "Chicago martyrs," who were hanged fcr their connection with the Haymarket riot, and the proceeds from the ZÖ cents admission which ..'as to have been charged wero to be given to Mrs. Bresci, of Paurson, wife of Gaetano Bresci, the assassin of King Humbert of Italy. Mrs. Bresci and her two children were among those turned away from the hall. Tho Anarchists -said to-night that the police had been interested in the prevention of the play by Italian Consul Branchl. At any rate, Inspector Cross summoned some of the Anarchist leaders to his office this afternoon and told them that they could rot give the play, and that if they tried to do so a hundred policemen would be on hand to put a etop to it. The Anarchists could but acquiesce, and soon after they placed on the doorway of the hall a notice in Italian, which read: "At the las moment we have been prevented by the police from giving the play, 'A Alan Without a Country. " As fast as the ticket holders came they were told there was to be no play. This was followed by a long-drawn-out hls irom an Anarchist whom th-i police allowed to stand on the curb, and he told the disappointed playgoers that they should so to IH Blocker street, where all the Anarchists would gather. Most of them, ar.d about half the women, followed bis Instructions. There is an Italian saloon and restaurant at this number, ar.d. fearing that tho police might make a descent on he place, the proprietors requested their Anarchist friends to go elsewhere. They went to another saloon nearby, but here again they were not welcome, the proprietor declaring that they would ruin his business. Their ranks had greatly dwln died by this time, but a few of the faithlul forr.ted inio line and marched to a resort on East Third street, where they were allowed to meet, and where speeches were made denouncing the police.

Pictured by nn Agent as an Improvement in Field Artillery Shields for Rapld-Flre Guns. 1 WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.The board of ordnance and fortifications held an Important meeting to-day and decided that the rapid-fire guns of the seacoast defenses should bo supplied with shields. This action must be approved by the secretary of war before It becomes operative. The ordnance officers, the engineers and some artillery officers do not approve of shields. This is a continuation of the contest between ordnance officers and engineers on the one hand and the majority of the members of the board of ordnance and fortifications on the other, relative to disappearing gun carriages. In connection with the action to-day there developed an Interesting feature of tho proceedings of the board relative to field artillery. It appears that an agent of the department has come into possession of what he asserts aro accurate plans for the new French field gun and these he offers to place at the disposal of the board ir he is permitted to undertake tho construction of a sample gun from the plans at the cost of the government. In his report he says: "Through personal friends in Paris I was fortunate enough to secure confidential information of such an accurate technical character as to convince me that I am now informed as to every essential element of construction involved, and with this knowledge am able-to not only make a working drawing of the equipment as it now is In service, but if given an opportunity could construct a gun and carriage of service efficiency equal to the French material. I would like to be given the opportunity to superintend the construction at the works of one of the large responsible manufacturers of cidnance of a complete service model of nonrecoiling French field carriage, embodying all the information gained, it being definitely understood that I give absolutely to the War Department all rights in the Impiovements of principles of construction employed. Und that the manufacturing company will keep the same confidential, turning over to the department all patterns, etc., when the work is completed. The cost of such construction will not exceed $2,000, and Ahe carriage could be completed in condition for service test within the 120 days recommended by the board of ordnance and fortification for the preparation of field material for test. "Since 1896 the French government has expended $10,000.000 on her new field artillery. The Russian government ha3 already secured the necessary financial credit for reorganizing and re-equipping Its field artillery to the extent of 1,000 six-gun batteries, to be completed by the end of 1903, and Involving a total expenditure of approximately $50,000,000. The German government, although it has already expended more than $Q,OU0,000 on the Krupp field guns introduced Into the service in 1S96, has decided to change and improve this equipment at an expenditure which will probably amount to $15,000,000 more, changing the pattern of the carriage very radically. The English government already has under construction about 500 field guns of the newest type. Sweden has Just arranged with a German firm for the manufacture of forty-six complete six-gun batteries. Involving an expenditure of nearly $2,000,000. Turkey has within the past three months given an order to Krupp for over two hundred of his latest field guns, at an approximate cost of $1,500,000, while an English firm has already partly completed an order for 120 guns received a short while ago from Spain. I refer to the above facts simply to emphasize the Importance that the modern rapid-fire field artillery is assuming in the war preparations of the world." The board decided to avail itself of the opportunity to build the test gun and made a recommendation to that effect to the secretary of war. HIS TASK HARD. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) sick, or 8.79 per cent. Regarding the morality of the army he says: "The number of deaths in the army has steadily increased and a diminution of the death rate can scarcely be expected. The number of men shot from ambush by small guerrilla bands now exceeds those "killed at any previous time, and as time proceeds and the men become more and more debilitated by the trophical service, the more marked will become the ratio of deaths. For the six months from Jan. 31 to July 31, 1900, there died twenty-four officers and 971 enlisted men,, of whom four officers and 201 enlisted men were killed in action and three officers and forty-three enlisted men died of wounds, the other deaths occurring from various diseases. This is an average of 4.7 daily." Colonel Greenleaf says that the war has impoverished the native population and the native population has drawn all available medical supplies from native physicians and there has been great suffering among the outlying residents. He says there is a scarcity of medical officers in the Philippines. Lieutenant Colonel Allen, of the signal corps, says there 13 In operation In the Island, 3,141 miles of land and cable lines, with 315 offices in direct communication with Manila.

When asked if he cared to say anything in reference to the suggestion that he might be in communication with Aguinaldo he said: "I am glad of the opportunity to state that while in this country I have not held any communication whatever with Aguinaldo, and havo even refused to undertake to forward a friendly letter for an American citizen whose patriotism I would not question."

International matter likely to come up between the United States and Great Britain is the suggestion to prevent the Filipino Junto from operating at Hong-Kong. t Inquiries reveal that no instructions have yet been received at the United States embassy to this end, though should the United States ambassador. Mr. Joseph H. Choate, be instructed to apply for the suppression of tho junto it is likely his request will be granted. An official of the Foreign Office said: "The extent of the steps we would take in this matter entirely depends on the strength of the case Washington can make out against the junto. If it is proved that the Junto is materially assisting the cause of the Filipinos, we, certainly, shall only be acting in the spirit of ordinary international friendship in suppressing the organization. Moreover, the British empire has no desire to harbor such bodies as Juntos." Two Filipinos Executed. WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. Two courtmartial cases in the Philippines, made public by the Yrar Department to-day, were the trials of Roman Santiago and Pablo de la Cruz, both native Filipinos, and of another native, also named Roman Santiago. In the two Instances the two natives were members of a band of guerrilla marauders who seized upon two peaceful natives, robbed them, accused them of being American spies, hung them to a telegraph pole and shot them to death. Roman Santiago, tho second,- was charged with taking part in the forcible seizure of five natives who were dragged from their homes at night In the Barrio of Namlpltan and who wero with one exception found mutilated and lifeless in a near-by field. The evidence in this case pointed conclusively to the band of which Santiago was a member. Death penalltes In each case were approved and executed. Extended to Twelve o'CIock. WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.

He warned his hearers that if the criticism was persisted in the time might come when his silence would be broken and the onus laid heavily and publicly on the-j right shoulders, though he deprecated having recourse to that. A curious feature connected with the war was Mrs. Richard Chamberlain's vigorous attack on the army hospitals before the hospital committee this week. The spectacle of this somewhat extraordinary sister-in-law of tho colonial secretary sitting two hours before that grave body and teaching a man like Justice Rohrner his business created no little sensation.
