MAnitlD Sept 2C The arrival of United
States MIHstcTVondford from San Sebastian
has made u sciiHatlon. The program of the
United States has been ascertained. Ihls
elora not contemplate a declaration of war If
Spain rejects arbitration , but according to
rrpoit ' an ostcntalloiiB proclamation to the
world of disapproval of the Cuban regime
liy suspending diplomatic relations with
Spain and withdrawing the United States
minister '
( Jcneial Woodford 1ms declined to be Inter-
\lewed on the subject ftntlnr than to say
that h s conference with the duke of Tctuau ,
thu foielgn minister , was of the most satis
factory character. The unexpected bitterness -
ness of the press and of public opinion haa
painfully impressed him , but he hopes thut
is 111 soon be allayed , as be bfllcves his mls-
nlon fuvorpblc to Spanish Interests and can-
1101 comprehend that Spain could reject
mediation designed to end In an Impoverish-
irg war. He has not named a time at which
thu war must be terminated , but he hopes ,
as the result of his tenders , that It will be
ended quickly He bclluves the war Is In-
illctlng Incalculable loss upon the United
States and that It Is Impossible to prevent
the organisation of filibustering expeditions
Unusual meisures were taken to protect
Minister Woodford on his Journey from San
Sebastian to this city , but the trip was epiitc
uneventful A party of gendarmes , com
manded by a bublleutcmnt , guarded thu
southern exprcbs , on which ho was a pas
senger. Seciet police were posted at the
station and the picfect of police- was In
vval'lng to cbcott him to his hotel , riie
drive tl.rough the streets was marked by no
special Incident though several people-
saluted him , receiving a bow In return.
Some comment has been caused by the
fact that Minister WoodforeVs family has
not nceomp-inlcd him. but remains behind
the French frontier. Minister Woodford ex
plains that his party Is a largo one , requiring
a commodious home and prefers spending
a pleasant October at Biarrlt ? until a suit
able residence can bo seemed here. The
legation cannot be used as a residence. Gen
eral Woodford hab already engaged a box at
thu Itoyal Opera house and has purchased
horses. General Woodford has taken apart
ments temporarily at the Hotel Koine but
receives official visits at the legation , where
too passed the entire morning today.

LONDON , Sept 2C John Hums , labor
member of Parliament for Ilattcrsca , has a
two-column article In the Tltnca this morning
in reply to the statement of an American
engineer who a few days ago in the Times'
columns discussed with an English engineer
the conditions of work In England and the
United States Mr Iurn ! ? agrees with what
was then said as to the excellence of Ameri
can workmanship. He denies , howevci , that
this Is due to the wages pild and the long
hours , but ascHbes It to the fact that the
employers Ind fewer deadheads to carry
about He says-
"The American employers are more In-
vcntlvo , adaptable , less hidebound In their
conceits , more versatile In Inventive and
Initiative efforts If American engineering
excels the British It Is not because of the
shorlcominKb of the nrltlsh mechanics , but
because of the wooden-headed and often pls-
hcaded charctcr ot the employ ert , managers
and foremen
"Given skilled \merican supervision and
Inventive methods with llrltlsh mechanics
and mechanics' .vork and therein Is the alll-
ancei of organbatlon and production which
would bo the belt Hn the world "
Ho concludes by denying that Great Urtt-
nln Is losing her engineering irade. alleging
on the contrary that It Is Increasing while
striken are decreeing. Ho quotes statistics

WASHINGTON , Sept. 26. ( Speclal.-Onc )
of the most Interesting exhibits in cornice-
tlon ' with the government display at the
Transmlsslsslppl and International Exposi
tion i will be a practical Illustration of the
lite | saving service. It Is the Intention of
.
the Tioaatiry Department , having In charge
the ' erection ot the Government ! building , to
build 1 at the head of the lagoon , or the
"Mirror < , " as It Is to bo called , a small
building for the crew of the life saving
service t , to be detailed from ono of the places
along the Atlantic coast where these men
are i constantly employed. The building will
necessarily ; bo small , largo enough , however ,
to contain a lifeboat with six pairs of onrs
and the apparatus now In vogue for purposes
ot saving life , and relieving vessels In dis
tress.
This exhibit will ho an object lesson of
Infllnto Importance to three who are only
acquainted with the acres ot bending corn
nnd thu undulating fields of wheat ; where
no vessel ot any character Is known except
ho prairie schooner. According to the act-
ng supervising architect. Mr. C. E Kempor ,
he lagoon planned by the exposition man
agement will admit of a splendid display
of the work requited from the Life Guard ,
and It Is lo bo hoped that the depth of water
at the nolnt where the life saving station
s to bo located will be sufficient tj permit
: ho Llfo Guards to swim Instead ot forcing
hem to wade out to the shore , thereby
llscredltlng the rxhlbltlon According to the
statistics of the Treasury Department there
lave been fewer disasters and more lives
saved on the coast In the last year than
over befoic In the history of the country
Without question the life saving service of
the United States Is superior to that of any
intlon In the world
NUMEROUS STATIONS
Piom the eastern extremity of the coist
ofMaine to Race Point on Cope Cod , a dls-
ance of 413 miles , there are alrcadv sKteen
stations ten ot tlnie being located at the
uost dangerous points on the coast of Milne
and New Hamp'hlre. which , although abound-
ng with rugged headlands , Islets , rocks
eefs and intricate channels tint would
latuially appear to bo replete with dangei- ,
ate provided with numerous harbors and
ilaces of shelter In vvh'ch ' , upon shsit notice ,
vessels can take refuge The Atlantic ccast
mwovei is studded with life saving stations.
1 here I * hardly a stretch or to rltory ot oi\
to ten miles tint does not contain a station
eqjlppcd with all the appliances of the e
modern times for the sivlng ot life ; and at
some places where the reefs ore dangerous
and the sandbars treacherous , the stations
ore but four miles apart , sltuited along the
ow sand hills fronting the ocean , sufficiently
, ack ot high water mark to bo afc from the
each of storm tides They arc plain stnre-
.urcs deslgne-d to servo as barracks for the
c'cwa and to afford convenient storage for
Ife boats and the apparatus.
In the majority of stations the first floor
.s divided Into four rooms , a boatroom , a
iness room ( also ( -ervlng for n sitting roam
for thq men ) a keeper's room nnd a store
room. Wide double-reefed doors and a slop-
ng p'atform ' extending from the sills to
the ground peimlt the running out of the
icavy equipments from the building' . The
second etory contains two rooms ; one Is the
sleeping room for the men , the other his
spate cotb for rescued people and Is also used
or stoiage The-e suimounts every station
a lookout or observatory In which a day
watch Is kept. This observatory Is provided
with a telescope which is used to sweep the
liorlzon for purposes of noticing pasblng
eh'pb. and to catch signals ot distress when
made In front of each station Is a flagstaff
sixty feet high used In signalling pas'lng
vessels by the Intel national code.
EQUIPMENT.
TLo equipment of the oidlnary life saving
station is most interesting , usually con'Ist-
Ing of surf-boats supplied with oars , life
boit compass and other attachments , a boat
carriage , two sets of brcechcfi-biioy appar
atus ( Including a Lyle gun and accessories ) , a
cai for the transportation of the apparatus ,
a life car , twenty cork jackets , two heaving
stlckH , a dozen Cotton signals , a dozen slg
nal rockets , a set of signal flags of the Inter
national code , a medicine chtst with contents
a barometer , a thermometer , patrol lanterns ,
patrol checks or patrol < locks , the requisite
furniture for rude housekeeping1 by the crew
and for the buccor of rescued people , fuel and
oil , tools for the repair of the boats and ap
paratus and fo > - minor repairs lo the buildIngs -
Ings , and the necessity books and Gtatloneiy
To facilitate the transportation of boats anil
apparatus to scenes of shipwreck a pair ol
hoises Is aho piovlded at stations where they
cannot bo hired , but at most of the houses
the men are expected to furnish the motive
power for the transportation of the boats
two lines of rope usually being attached to
the boat-carriages , very much similar to the
manner In which flro engines were propellce
In the old volunteer days.
The number of men composing the crow o
a station Is determined by the number o
cars requited to pull the large : ! boat belong
Ing to It. Ihcre are some five-oar boats In
the Atlantic stations , but In all of then
there Is at least ono of six oars Six men
therefore moke up a regular crew To thcsi
btatlons a seventh man Is added on the firs
day of December , so that during the moat
rigorous portion of the hou'on a man may bo
left on shore to assist In the launching and
beaching of the boat and sco that the btatlon
is properly prepared for the comfortable re
ception of his comrades and the rescued people
ple they bring with them on their icturn
from a wreck
SELPBALINGBOAT. .
Ono of the new Inventions used In the life
saving service and which Is giving most ex
cellent satisfaction , solving a hitherto em
barrassing question , Is the self-lallng boat ,
which pulls eight oars and which will be
onu of the distinctive features of the govern
ment dUpIay at Omaha. The crews at the
life saving stations throughout the United
States are under civil service , having to pas *
a rigid examination as to physical condition
and a knowledge of locations about the sta
tion to which they dcslra to bo attached.
'Iho applicant for a place In , the life saving
service must bo of good character and hablta ,
not less than 21 nor moro than 45 years of
ago and must have a perfect knowledge of
boatcraft and Biirflng In the government
exhibit at the Omaha Exposition there wilt
bo no moro attractive place than thu llfu
bavins station at the head of the lagoon An
exhibit which the authorities In Washington
propose to make exhaustive to a degree that
the people of the west may have perfect
knowledge of what goes on along the At
lantic coast when storm tides sweep the
shores , leaving wrerks and desolation be-
hind.
