A dwpatch from New York. says: - The White Star line steamer Germanic sank at tter pier on Monday evening. and is now lying par- tially suhnwrged. The necident is said to have been due. to the heavy coat- ing of ice whieh formed on the sides of the steamer.

The latest protest from Lord Salis- bury shows that affairs between the two countries an again strained to a very serious point.

Magistrate Wentworth said: " This is a. sad case, I believe; in sui- cide, and I think everyone has aright to shuffle off when he has nothing in lit" left for him. When I get so that there is nothing left in life for me, I think that is “hat I shall do." The magistrate then turned theboy over to his sister who took him home with her. In diplomatic circles the reports of better relations between the two coun- tries are now discredited. It would not be surprising it there wasarenewal of the active military preparations, which both nations made with so much display last fall.

Thursday night, however, Frenchmen are asking each other with enhanced anxiety what is going to happan. The ques- tion most frequently asked is, "Who will be the next President?" and the name most often suggested by the questioners themselvel ia that of Senator Waldetrk-Hounteyau. The Fronch people did not regard M. Fuure as a great figure in their na- tional history. He was no popular hero. Perhaps he was not appreciuted at his true worth, but he commandod the confidence and respect of all parties and all classes. He was mmarkahly auccmssful in the dififcult and delicate task of keeping clear of all the compli- cations ofthe terrible scandal which now blights the national lifo, al- though it was well known that: his sympathies were on the aide of those who oppose a revision of the Dreyfus one.

But another quesiion, ominous in its importance is asked many times in- night.
