The expected advent of the third Russian squadron into the China Sea in about a week strengthens the opinion that the tctuation is one of ex- ceeding gravity so far as French neu- trality is concerned, and that it may force Japan to avail herself of her alliance with Great Britain, which provides in the event of Japan being attacked by any two powers Great Britain is bound to assist her.

Mrs. Covel, who is practically a cripple from rheuma- tism, was attacked first, and defended herself until ale was practically let: helpless on her bed. Miss Lowry came to her assistance, which caused the trend to turn his attention to Mrs. Covel‘s companion for the night. There is no clue to the murdeatrr, who seems to have left very little trace behind.
