LONDON' , July 22. The ( ictcrmlnatlon of
the admiralty to Improve the gunnery of
the navy has come none too soon , In the
opinion of experts , ami there Is general
satisfaction that the authorities Imc de
cided to follow the example of the UnltcJ
States navy and double the allowance of
ammunition for firing practise ; the "nccnt
unpleasantness" between the United States
and Spain demonstrating the admirable gun
nery of the American navy , coupled with
official returns Just Issued and showing that
the beat British gunners failed to hit the
target seventy out of every 100 shots , has
awakened the admiralty to the necessity
of mending mottcis.
In his statement In the House of Com
mons yesterday relative to the shipbuilding
vote , Right Hon. George J. Ooschcn , iflrst
lord of the admiralty , practically corrob
orated the recent statement cf nn admiralty
ofllclal to the correspondent of the Asso
ciated Press "that for Its slzo the American
navy Is as line a navy as ever existed
and much could bo learned from It , " and
that meanwhile he hoped that naval In
telligence would bo enhanced.
The mobilization of a huge fleet engaged
In the maneuvers Is carrying out n plan
of the most Interesting features. The plan
supposes Great Britain to be at war with
a foreign power , and convoys of British
merchant ships carrying food and supplies
Is crossing the Atlantic from Halifax under
a small escort. The enemy sends a fleet to
intercept the convoy and Great Britain dis
patches a Meet to Intercept that of Its ad
versary. The enemy , however , rellos on
numerous torpedo boats Issuing from Irish
ports for the purpose of harassing the Brit
ish , while ho captures the convoy.
Great Britain on the other hand relics
upon torpedo bnat destroyers to cope wltu
the toipedo boats and give free play to
the seagoing ships. The real battle Is thus
torpedo 'boats ' against torpedo boat destroy
ers. The result must be most interesting
nnd must largely control the future policy
with regard to building of torpedo boat
destroyers.
ICniKr Yield * tu NiMM'UMUy.
What President Kruccr declined to the
representatives of the Outlanders and the
arguments of the British high commissioner
of South Africa , Sir Alfred Mllncr , hu
seemed Inclined to yield to the more for
cible hints of the war ofllcc , comprised In
unobtrusive but various military prepara
tions. The sudden change of front by the
Volksraad In adopting the seven-year fran
chise proposition on last Tuesday Is forcible
demonstration of the claim that President
Kruger can and does yield when the proper
pressure Is applied , but not otherwise.
As Mr. Chamberlain said In the course of
his speech In Ihc 'House ' of Commons on
Thursday regarding the modifications of the
franchise law in the Transvaal , the con
cessions do not end the difficulties , but
merely offer a basis for a pacific settle
ment , and former experiences with the
Transvaal have taught the government that
It Is Iprtivlsaplc Ucqny way to relax pres-

The parliamentary select committee on old
ago pensions Is laboring earnestly with a
view to ( presenting a report before the
prorogation of Parliament. It Is understood
that committees have arrived at the determination -
j termination to recommend a pension of G
i shillings weekly to all attaining the ago of
! 65 years who have never received parish
relief. The proposal will naturally involve
a heavy expense , generally estimated at
$10,000,000 yearly , which , It Is proposed ,

I i In the mile race England enjoyed a mo
nopoly from start to finish. The odd event
was picked up gloriously by Kocf Harvard ,
I dcfealing the English crack , Pagct-Tomlln-
Bon , In the cleanest hurdling ever seen on
the turf. Burke's running again evened
results und brought disappointment to the
Americans , who had counled on winning
with Burke. Burke , however , had been suf
fering from a weak stomach for nearly a
year and this proved fatal to his success.
The Englishmen cxhlblled splendid Judg-
men In the quarter-mile , half and three-
mlle runs , the string In each race making
the racing1 for his comrades lo come through
nt the finish.
The prlnco of Wales and other members
of the royal family left before the last two
events wore finished.
51. C X , Jack&on , bursar at HartfoVd college -
lego , who had charge of the Oxford-Cam
bridge learn , said to the Associated Press
conespondent of the contests :
"I am really sorry that the Amei leans
had to lose , but they did It In a sportsman
like manner , which Is highly appreciated by
o\cry Englishman -who has opposed them.
They have been frank and open with us
throughout. "
While Mr. Jackson was talking Mr. Wen
dell , who had chsrgo of the American team ,
cnmo up and bhook hands with Mr. Jackson -
son and said : "I heartily congratulate you ;
wo could not both win , and I am sure to-
day'e contest will cement the friendship
Tietween the universities and that our ath
letes will always be good friends. "
It was learned that liurko has been trou
bled with his stomach ever elnco the ar
rival of the team In England , although Mr.
Wendell managed to keep 1t secret and the
athletewas'by no means himself today ,
Ito > alty ( 'niiKriitiilatPM Ko\ .
The prince of Wales was especially de
lighted with the hurdle races and cent a
message of congratulation to Kox , the win
ner of the event. Steward II. S. Brooks
of Yale , who held the Yale quarter-mile
record , bald at the conclusion of the games :
"The friends of Yale and Harvard are sat
isfied that the team lost the games on their
merlin. Of course , Bnrke's failure was the
crucial tost. That Is where wo went down.
That was duo to causes that could not have
been prevented and wo have no explanation
or excuse to offer. It was evident when
tbo races were half run that Burke was not
In form. Wo expected to lose the hurdle and
win the half mile , but that shows how dif
ficult It is to specify rcHults the day before
the races. "
Mr. Wendell , the Harvard steward , ald :
"No word of explanation or excuse can
como from any friend of the American team.
Wo were met In the handsomest spirit and
lest fairly on our merits cr demerits. Cer
tainly no one can say moro of English hos
pitality or sportsmanship and no friend of
Yale or Harvard has a word of complaint to
utter. "

BERLIN , July 21 The week has been
almost devoid of political events. Thf
I newspapers have been threshing o\cr theold ,
! straw of the canal , antl-strlko and other
bills , but without saying anything new. The
bill for protecting the rights of writers , composers -
posers and nrtlsta was published this week
I It was a tentative measure put out for the
! purpose of drawing criticism , which will be
j taken Into account when the bllt Is presented
) In the llclehstng. Several points lm\e called
I forth strong opposition , such as the derision
to punish the publication cf private letters
without the authority of writers. The printIng -
Ing of unpublished documents Is also men
tioned. Many of the newspapers assert that
these provisions arc aimed nt the A'oor-
wacrts , which has shown surprising ability
In the direction of securing documents and
letters.
Berlin Is In the midst of the vacation sea-
eon. Vacations to the mountains and eca
continue in unusual proportions , those goIng -
| Ing by the night trains finding It almost Im
possible to secure sleeping berths. The
i week has been unusually hot and humid.
I Heavy hall and rain storms have occurred
Inarlous pnr.a of the country , inflicting
I much damage to the crcps. Many people
ha\o been klled by lightning , two Mich
canes having occurred In Berlin.
j The thunder nt Hanover was the most se
vere experienced for thirty years. Many pen-
j pie In that province were struck and killed
I by lightning. In lllescn-Gcblrge , Silesia ,
i some deaths from sunstroke were also re-
'
ported. One hundred draft dogs In Berlin
I were sunstruck during the week nnd brought
1 to the veterinary stations by the police. I i

The annoucemcnt that Chief Justice Chambers - I
bers Is to leave Samoa is received with
great satisfaction by all sections of the Ger
man press. The newspapers ha\e all along
represented Chambers ns the tcol of 13. B. S.
I
Ma.xse , the British consul at Apia , and tspo- i
clally hostii'o to the Germans In the Island.
i
His retirement , therefore , had been regarded
as necessary to the restoration of normal I
conditions. With the retirement of Judge I
Chambers , the newspapers say , the olllclals
at Apia will have an easier task. I
The flae incident at Honolulu on July 4
lias been sensibly Heated by the German
press. The swift runfahniout of the of
fender Is rerardcd as evidence of the cor
rect attitude of the United States toward
Germany. There was not a single jarring
note In the press In regard to the affair
iMost of the papers did not regard the af
fair as of enough Importance to notice
The Boursen Courier said the incident
showed that gocd understanding between
German and American olllclals in the Pa
cific had made Immense progress. The local
Anreiger said the Americans did their dutj
unhesitatingly.
The Philippine campaign has been al
luded to frequently this week. The Krouro
Zcttung says the Americans arc making no
progress In spite of exertion. The Tnge-
blatt says the campaign looks for the pres
ent like a farce , because the Americans
have not sufficient troops In the Philippines
to undertake any serious operations.
The Boursen Courier , referring to ei-
forts made in Washington to raise new
troops , says : "The United States Is ap
parently developing Into a military state ,
after the example of European countries. "

Newspapers hero print a letter from a
German at Manila giving the following ac
count of things there :
American officials heM brilliant recep
tions in private houses and at the Casino nt
Marnte to which they Invite prominent FIII-
plnos. The last week In June there was n
great festival at which 600 were present and
which ended with a ball nnd firework' ! .
Four-fifths of the guests were Filipinos. All
the women were Invited to appear In pictur
esque native costumes , but while the Amer
ican civil officials are leading the Filipinos
into fraternizing- two armies are con
stantly fighting. Everywhere the Flllplnns
have strong corps pushed forward close on
the American line nnd wherever a patror
leaves the main body it finds Itself In the
presence of the enemy and threatened with
being surrounded. The Americans take re
venge by having ships fire upon Filipinos
wherever a few show themselves In order to
bathe.
How helpless arc the Americans outside of
Manila Is shown by the capture of two offi
cials of the hospital ship Roller. This vessel
took n short sail under the protection of Hie
cannon war ships off Paranaquo and was
suddenly surrounded by natlvo boats nrd
the officers captured. The Monadnock got np
steam rapidly , but although It opened lire
nnd raked thP shore and forest the rescue
of the Relief's officers was not accomplished.
The Filipinos led the prisoners quietly
away. When marines landed they were ro-
colved BO warmly that they were forced to
return hastily to the ship ,
Gel many has been excluding cattle BO rig
idly that the difference In price has become
so lucrative as to furnish good business for
smugglers. The authorities recently cap
tured eight cows at Nordhorn which bad
been smuggled ftom Holland. The business
Is carried on by organized bands and still
continues , although a double force of cus
toms guards has been employed.
