It appears that before the Lafavette! sailed for Havana, the French Legation in! Washington was instructed to communicate

with the State Department.

This was done and permission was

granted to the steamer to enter and dis.

eharge passengers and cargo, with the

understanding that she would take on

vothing there.

Instructions for the fulfillment of this

agreement were sent from Washington to

Admiral Sampson’s squadron, and it was

only learned after the capture was made

that they were never delivered.

THE FEAR OF THE POWERS

May Give Them Cohesion.

Lonpox, May 6.—lIt is believed that there have been eome exchanges of views ‘between the powers on the subject of the Philippines, as to which all kinds of spec. ulations are aflaat. None of the powers like the idea of the United S‘ates becoming a near neighbor of Japan, and the fear of further American victories is likely to give cohesion, in which the powers hither- to have been eadly lacking.

GLADSTONE’3 LAST DAYS.

Looking Forward to a Christians Death.

Loxpox, May 6.—The Daily Chronicle said yesterday morning : *Mr. Gladstone’s strength steadily declines, though there is, we believe, no prospect of an immediate end. The disease has not gained force enough to overcome the wonderful strength of Lis comstitm ion, but a natural weakness pow supervenes and gains upon him, encouraged by Mr. Gladstone’s fer- vent desire for the rest which he has ao richly earned. He is now confined to bis room. Now and egain his mind reverts to critica! periods in nis career, and to the legislation which cost him the most anxiety, but the main thing that fille his ‘sought is religion, and he speaks of death as his eal.”
