THE BLUE FUNNEL DEAL:
It is rumoured at Bangkok that the Scottish Oriental Steamship Company will run steamers from Singapore to Bangkok, the agreement bewhich they made with Holt not to do so, not holding good with his successors-the new Syndicate.
NEW YORK, April 9th. Admiral Dewey has given to the Manila correspondent of Leslie's Weekly an interview regarding the suggestion that, the Admin made a candidate for the Presidency next year, The Admiral said as to his politica
"I am a salior. A sailor, has no politics. The administration is his party, and, Repub- lican or Democratic, it makes no difference. Then, again, I come from Vermont, and you know what that means. To be anything but a Republican in Verman is to be a man without party. My flag-lieutenant comes from Georgia. He tells me that to be anything but a Democrat in the South is to be a nobody. If I lived in the South I would probably be a Democrat"
asked.
Have you ever voted ?" the correspondent Yes, years ago, but my vote was usually Influenced by personal preference or local con- ditions. I am not a politician, have never held political office and am totally ignorant of pany

Bearing in mind that the natural resources of the East are to be exploited with all the perfection of modern, appliances and cheaper labor than has ever been offered, the following questions suggest themselves: How can cotton goods of the United States make other than limited market in Asia against the cottons of India, Japan and China? How can American petroleum, better article as it is, hold more than its own against the Russian oil; supported as it may be by a bounty for political

In no fewer than sixteen battleships, twelve armoured cruisers, ten first .class cruisers, and seven second-class cruisers, now built or building, this type of boiler, is fitted or to be fitted. Any real failure in the Terrible's boilers would, therefore, be a national calamity. Happily it does not as yet appear that there is sufficient ground for condemning the boilers. Their opponents have seized on the accident as a matter of course, and talk as if the Belleville had abso lutely no virtues, overlocking its big grate area and its valuable tractical property of quick steam-raising. Sir Alben Durston has recently placed the durability of the Belleville at six years, while acknowledging that it is very far from perfection.
