France Wishes lo Be Friendly

WITH UNITEIJ STATES

We’ve I Been Mistaken,

They-Say no Reason Why France Should Side With Spain-No Common Ideal Between the Two Coun- tries.

Pants, Ju`y 31.-There is a strong

desire in French ollicial circles to bring about a complete resumption of the plesant relations with the United States which existed previous to the trouble between Spain and America, and which were distrubed by French newspaper utterances. Il: is pointed out that the nearer the Spanish-America war came to a close, the clearer it is to sobermind Frenchm en that the public opinion in America has been m‘siakeu in regard to the real opinion and feeling of France toward the United States.

It is added that in spite of what was

written in the newspaper here or dis- cussed in social orcles when the war began. no doubt was entertained any. where in France as to the result of the hostilities. The weakness and inferi- ority of Spain were so evident that, it is claimed here. it would be unfair now to assert that the American victories have caused acl;1ange.of_pnb1ic opinion in France, and that the French news- paper today think it wiser to favor the conqueror.

In explanation cf the tone of the

French press toward the United States, it is said the language used by the newspapers at present is in substance the same as used three mouths ago,and that the reason the American people have been under the impression that the French papers were hostile to the United States and favorable to Spain is due to the fact that only the less scnsi_ ble part of the French was quoted in the cable dcspatches, while such papers as the Jurnal des Debats, the Fig 1ro and the Temps and some o hers have not favored either side in the war, and have furnished their readers with hon- est accounts of the different features of the hostilites. _

Continuing, it is argued that some cf

the leading representatives of the Frence press were interviewed during the war, and their statemens left no room for doubiug; that they enter tained a cordial feeling toward the Unitetl States, while French business inen who were similary interviewed were even more efnpalliatic in their ex- p:cssions of friendship toward America.

Finally the Freuchmeu saw that the

recent celebration of the Fourth of July here was the occassiou of bringing forth additional proof of the cordial feeling entertained here towards Ameri- cans. At the binquet of the American Chamber of Commerce there were many proir1iuent_Frenchmeu present Includ. ing some ci the highest otiicals, and M. Maruejoues, the ministerof commerce, speaking for the French government, said: ‘-We have been told"hat far awa

are those who listened to cilummnia- tors in France who asserted that France was forgetful of her duty and that we have become not only adversaries, but," according to some reports, even discour- teous towards America.

“I protest against such an impres-

sion. My word is suliicient to dispel such a ridiculous idea, and I hope that the echo of what I say will be carried fir from this banquet hall to the other side of the Atlantic, as an indignant pro- test against the false reports as to the sentiments of France towards America. But, if this is not suflicient, let me as- sure your countrymen that not a day, nota hour, not a minute has elapsed during which |'he harmony which exists between us has ever run the risk of being broken.

France has always been for you. a

second country, and no one knows bet- ter than your ambassador, and a. min- ster of the French cabinet, the degree of cordiality manifested in connection with our reciprocal relations.”

This statement of the French minister

cf commerce is reproduced here as it

have come out. All report that Dawson

son why France should side with Spain, as during the present century there has ‘-never been any common ideal between the two countries,” and that the French: men of today are not led by clerical considerations not “by the theory of the so-called Latin races.” which. is further asserted, is no longer taken seriously' by any sensible man. ,

From a semi-ollicial source the

following statement was made. “From a commercial point of view. France is as much interested in American as in Spanish trade, and consequently she has no reason to jeopardize her friend. ly relations with the United States. Still she feels sympathy for her unfortunate , neighbor. and rejoices heartily at the fact thatpezice is io be arranged and 1 that the French ambassador,M. Cambou, has been the messenger of peace sent by Spain tc America.

“As to the Philippines. if those

islands are to be lost to Spain. France. as the 1ul+r of Indo-China, would probably prefer having the American as next door neighbors, instead cf any European or Asiatic power.

Keeping dpath roto down

SIBON1 uba, July 30 -The health

problem in General Shaiter’s army is becoming more serious every day but 111 spite, ofthe great and rapidly vrowinv sick list ihe superhu man efforts of the medical corps have lrep e death rate doun to a rlienomenally low figure Major L. Lagarde, in command of the reserve divisional hospital here, re- ported this morning that there had been a thogsand cases of sickness in the main hospital’ chiefly yellow, ty- phoid, and swamp fevers, with some measles, and only thirty-one deaths, Drs. Lawrence, Williamson, and Park- er have been down with the yellow fever in the last week, but all are con- valescent now and will remain at work. 1 herto all thefyellow fever case have been transferred immediately toa hos- pital inithe hills, but that place is now becomming unhealthy. Siboney has been destroyed by all the healthy troops and hereafter all cases ot yellow fever will be treated here. It will be a yellow fever and nothing more. Every ves- tige of a building here has been burned.

pulous state of cleanliness. At the hill hospitals will be broken up tomorrow.

Reports from the troops at the fort ihis morning says that sickness is sadly on the increase. In several regiments ‘ the sick list counts into the hundreds. The Ninth Massachusetts has 240 men in hospital, and an oiiicer fromthere this morning reported that neraly 300 others are sick. For ” the last two davs no patients have been brought in from the front. The regimental surgeons arc endeavoring under the greatest diffi- culties to care for the sick in their own ctrnps.

The energies of the force at Siboney

are now chiefly devoted to supplying the field hospitals and shipping the con- valescents on board of transport for the United States as fast as they can be ship- ped. The transport Santiago is now 'loading with men on the way to recovery and it will probably sail to some port in the United States .tomorrow.

The main hospital is becoming des-

perately short of medical supplies. and is relying ou a government ship believ- ed to be on its way with hospital stores and a staff of immune doctors and nurses. For two weeks there has not been a scrap of ice in any of tlie hos- pitals,bul. the dispatch boat Anita came from Port Antonio this morning and 1 delivered a generous supply.

Part of the ice- was packed ou cars

and taken to the fever camps in the hil‘s, where it was sadly needed. The water as it comes from the pipe in Siboney is now fairly hot, but it can ,be cooled in small quantities in cauteens and stone vessels.

The method of treating the fever

I promulgated by Drs. Ecl1everria,Gargas

and'Pai-ker is proving marvelously suc-- cegsful. It consists of abundind physic _ and diuretios, no food stimulants, with water admininstered every few minutes. The results prove its efhcacy, as only thirty-one deaths have been reported.

Chaplain Gavitt has established a

burial ground on :1 hillside in hard soil, where it cannot be effected by the rains. As heretofore, a board with one incrip- tion burnod upon it is placed at the head of each grave, and a bottle with complete data concerning the man is buried beneath. A careful record is '

a stout board coffin. The chaplain has secured from the United States a num- ber of metal easkets for use where friends desire to take the bodies home

and the whole place is kept in a scru- ~

also kept. Every body is inclosed in `
