(From the *Manila Times.") Mr Chamberlain's Triple Alliance
London, Dec. 4-All the newspaper are criticising Me Chamberlain's speech at the U S. Ambasador's Thanksgiving dinner, in which he announced a new triple alliance of the United States, Germany and Great Britain.
The unanimous feeling of the American press is against any such alliance, While most of the papers express satisfaction that the relations of the three countries should be as friendly as possible, all are apposed to an entanglement such as is indicated in Mr Chamberlain's
speech,
