2 FRANCEJS STUNG British Ambassador’s Speech Rouses Ire in Her Breast. APPEAL TO SALISBURY, Manacing Mords that Indicate a Disposition of France to Fight the Lion. By Associated Prea«. New York, December 8. —A dispatch to •Herald from -Dario «ays. nferring to Sir Edward J. Monson's speech, the Liberte ways: •M. 'l)(di<-a.-:se will certainly not fail to charge M. Paul Cambon, who leaves today to take possession of his post in London, to ask the Marquis of Salisbury if It is by •his order -that the British embasscdor in Paris thinks himself not only authorized to rt present the British foreign office, but also to direct our foreign policy. The Oil Blas says: The menacing tone of the speech will be noticed. We certainly do not wish to envenom the quarrel which Sir Edmond Monson appeal's to seek. Still per hajH we may be permitted to observe that this tone does not coincide with his dip lomatic charge. His mission is a concili atory one. Very well. The ambassador set nis 'to us to outstep considerably the rights he enjoys among us. He is the rep resentative of a friendly nation. We count upon M. I)» licasse’s firmness that the en tir * tempestuous harr.ngue of Queen Vic toria's envoy receive the only sanction it merits—'that is to eay, the intervention of London—-so that in tlie future Sir Edmond will employ more measured language in France. It is true that its role is trying to embroil France with America. The Petit Journal remarks: ‘Wnik. Sir Edmund -waw in this expansive mood he fie might have told us what he thought of the r< rj.ectability of a ar.ion. ?/:•?? hav ing solemnly promised several times to vacte a certain territory, establishes her self ti'ere without ceremony, thus depriv ing another nation of its secular rights, which are enhanced by a gigantic under taking and also what he thinks of a na tion which, after having boasted hypothet '.illy vs its liberalism and Lum rnitarian bm cynically trusts to the right of might. England in Egypt; America in the Philli pineis. Thus both receive a treacherous backhander.” The <Debats says: ‘‘Sir Edmund Man sons allusion to the pin prick policy dis turbing its hints 'that whenever England o'her interests side by side wLh her own she declares ishe feels the pin prick and generally replies with the blow of a bludgeon.” At the same time the Debats disavows any governmental support o.f the proposi tion <to create French schools at Khar toum or Faohoda. “We have better uses for our resources.” The Journal says: ‘‘France will never •forget that these words, strange from many points of view, were uttered in Paris by the ambassador of a power with whom we are at peace by a man whose •duty it is to -try to smooth away difficul ties instead of throwing oil upon the fire.” The Patrie says: ‘‘it is impossible to convey a more warning in a more of.ensive form. Sir Edmund Monson, the British ambassador dares in Paris itself, to threaten us with the wrath of his countrymen. This language recalls that used by Mr. McKinley’s mouth pieces Edmund has been allured by the proced ure of the new American diplomacy.” IS HE A DUKE? Remarkable Statement of a Man in the iCriminal Dock. L I ? By Associated Press. New York. Dec. B.—A dispatch to the World from London says: "The Johannesburg correspondent of the Mail telegraphs: ‘A remarkable story was told today during the hearing of a charge of fraud against Charles Gunn. A state ment was put in by the prisoner in which he declared that he was the brother of the late Duke of Hamilton and left England after fighting a duel. For private reasons his death was formally announced and a sham funeral took place. ”Gunn asserts that Robinson, of Roth erwellhaugh, filled a coffin which was sent to Hamilton palace and placed in the mausoleum and says if the coffin is open ed and examined his statement can be verified.” The late Duke of Hamilton died May 6. 1SIK», leaving no son and was succeeded by his kinsman, Alfred Douglas .Hamilton. The late Duke's only brother was Chas. George Archibald. It is recorded in (Burke’s •peerage that Charles was born May 18. 1847, and ied childless in May. 1866. If Charles can prove that he is alive he may get the dukedom and vast wealth. FIFTY MILES OF ICE. Whaler Caught and Unable to Catch a Fish. By Associated Press. San Francisco. Dec.

THEY ARE NOT AFRAID, Qentral Anti Ticket Scalping League Per- Persisting. “We have no axiety whatever over the suit for libel begun against us by three St. Louis ticket brokers on account of a letter issued by the Central Anti-Ticket Scalping Committee,” said A. Al. Comp ton, chairman of the executive committee, yesterday. “We are fighting a. business and not the individuals engaged in that business. We are fighting that business because it injures our business by inter fering with the railroad rates for big meetings, spectacular exhibitions, fairs and other occasions which bring large bodies of people together at commercial centers, large or small, thereby increasing business. The suit begun by these St. Louis ticket brokers was instituted, of course, principally for the political effect it might have at Washington and we have no fear that it will ever come to trial. If it does we have no fear of the result, for the letter upon which the libel suit is based does not contain the name of the complainants and therefore is not suffi cient ground for libel.” HAVE MORE THANXONE.

TERRIBU TRIP Voyage of a Schooner From a Central American Port A SERIES OF STORMS. For Forty Days the Crew Had Only Cocoanuts for Food, Drink and Fuel. By Associated Press. New York, Dec. B.—-Within a short sail ing distance of this port and twice beaten back after a two months' voyage was the story told by the little schooner Mildred, which has arrived here, fifty-six days out from 'San Blaz, Central America, with a cargo of coccanuis. The crew was forced to use coeoanut milk in place of water, the meat for food and the .••hells for fire. ■Captain Tibbett, first officer, said as he landed: “Thank God. it is all over now. I never expected to get in here alive.” According to the account of the voyage given by the captain the Mildred as soon as she left San Blaz encountered rough weather. 'December 5 the little schooner, out of provisions and with the crew ex hausted and discouraged, arrived oft Cape May. There she fell in with the pilot boat Philadelphia, which supplied her with provisions and water. For a number of days the provisions and water on the Mil dred bad been exhausted and the men had lived on cocoanuts. The shells, as well as some of the woodwork of the ship,, were burned in the galley fire in order to give warmth to the men, who had for nearly forty days been in the midst of a series of storms with the esa sweeping over the deck. The little fcod furnished to the crew by the pilot boat was enough to keep them from starvation and to give them new courage to proceed on their way to this porf. Once more the Mildred started on her way only to meet a heavy storm again. This time the captain put in for shcal water and anchored. The storm in creased and both the anchors of the Mil dred were carried away. Captain Tibbett then ordered all the sail remaining set and managed to work the vessel out to sea. Finally the tug projector was sight ed and she brought the Mildred into port. Pains in 'the chest when a person has a cold indicate a tendency toward pneu monia.
