PKTERSBUBa Decl lZ-Tbe polld-c4 toplo of the day tbe rapprochement tttvifa Rossla and AustrlaHongary.

That inch rapprochement should take place to. Indeed, moat natural, since Austria as Bismarck lone since proclaimed, a 81a rather than a Qermanie nation. For some time past public opinion In Russia has been desirous that an end should he put to the meaning-less estrangement between the Governments at Vienna and St. Petersburg. It has been the dream of Russian statesmen for years past to bring about more cordial relations between the two countries, and it '-'A really seems as If their efforts were finally to be crowned with success.

Among the newspapers, the Svtet Is In the Tanguard of the movement In favor of more intimate relations an entente cordial e. In other words between Russia and Austria-." Hungary. This leading St. Petersburg Jour tsI reminds the Russian people of the friendly feelings displayed toward them of late by Emperor Francis Joseph. The 8vlet also enumerates the numerous wars In which the Russian troops fought side by aide with those of Austria.

For a long time, continues this newspaper, no alliance was possible between Russia and Austria, be- cause Austria persisted In her exclusively German policy. But to-day Austria recog-T nixes her mistake, and since her population ts chiefly Slat, she feels that her- best ln- te rests would be furthered by a close under-r standing with the greatest of Slav nations. The opinions "and wishes of the Sviet are shared by most of the Slar newspapers published In Austria-Hungary. The entente cordial between the two Governments on the Balkan question Is a favorable sign of the evolution which Is taking place. The Russian newspapers conclude almost unanimously, from this Austro-Russian entente, that disarmament, as conceived by the Cxar, ytcholas II-, is grand and a generous Idea, but Impossible to be realised in the present state of the world's civilisation.

There has been a perfect mania in Russia during the past year for the erection of statute and public monuments. The most recent event of this kind was the unveiling cf Oca. Mourarienrs statue at Vllna, which bas had the unfortunate effect of reviving the race hatreds between Russians and Poles, in Lithuania. It was Mourarleff who -dealt the hardest and most decisive blow to the Polish insurrection of 13. The situation was then a most alarming one.

Russia bad not an ahy. and was threatened by three- powers at once, France, Austria-Hungary, and Great Britain. The Russian Army was Itself thoroughly disorganized and sadly equipped. In St. Petersburg the Liberal Party was silently encouraging the Polish revolutionists.

Such was the state of affairs, when three men. Prince Gort- chakoff, the Journalist Khatkoff, and Gen. Mouravieff, appeared the Held of action and saved Russia. It Is a curious fact to note that it ie the Polish nobility who nave displayed the most hostile feelings toward Russia of late, apropos of the Alouravleff celebration. These landed aristocrats seem still to retain the old spirit of 1863.

and to -look upon Russia as toe bitter enemy of their race. But It is different with the great masses of the people, who are thoroughly reconciled with their 131av brethren. This moral conquest of the Russians over the Polish masses Is one of the great diplomatic achievements of the St. Petersburg Government during the past decade, since It Insures the safety of the empire's western frontier in the event of a general European conflagration. The Russian press has hailed with much satisfaction the definite signing of the Span-: Un-American treaty of peace.

It Is lnter- eating to note, in this matter, that whereas In republican and democratic France puuuc opinion, as echoed by the press, has been almost entirely in sympathy with the Span-v tards throughout their conflict with the TJnlted States, in monarchical and autocratic Russia there was been, all along a strong current of opinion In favor of the United States, and its Intervention in Cuba; In St. Petersburg, as Indeed In Moscow and other Russian towns, there are two very unevenly Uvided currents of opinion concerning the Spanish-American treaty of peace. On the one hand is the great army of State officials and functionaries whose tendency Is, not unnaturally, to sympathize with the monarchical Government of Spain against the great Republic of the New World. This official class Undo its opinions echoed in the St. Petersburg and Moscow Government or-' gans, but, lu striking opposition to these sympathizers tor vanquisnea opsin, is ine great mass the educa.ed classes in the M'stcovlt Empire the university profes-' sors and students, the Russian savants and litterateurs, as well as the liberal members of the ailstocracy.

All these educated men and women, who represent what is highest and noblest among the Russian people the Russia of the future, in other -vords are loud in their denunciations of Spanish tyranny, and equally loud in the expression of their desire for a free democratic government In Cuba. As a St. Peters-' burg Liberal organ very Justly remarked the other day. the much-talked-of oppression of the Poles by the Russians In the past war mere nothing compared with the mediaeval tortures to which the Cubans and Filipinos have been subjected in the last three years, since the outbreak of the 'cnectlon with Russia's foreign policy should be said that the Trans-Siberian Rail war, which, it vM be remembered. Is Hearing completion, will alter the balance of political fotees in the Far East to an extent that It is Impossible to foresee.

The political advantages to the power which controls this main artery of communication between the East and west are immense. The line will do more to open up China than a dozen wars could do. and the Muscovites will held the key of the position. Starting from the eastern terminus at Port Arthur. In Manchuria, the train will proceed to Moscow a distance of English miles.

The speed will be about thirty-four miles an hour, and the whole run will take seven days and ten hours. Then, If one calculates that it takes sixty hours to get from Moscow to London, and fifty hours at the other, end by. sea from Shanghai to Port Arthur, or sixty hours from ghlmonoseki In Japan to the same port, it will be seen that the whole Journey from London, In either case, can be done well within four-. teen days. By the now available steamer routes It takes thirty-eight days, via the Sues Canal, to get from.

London to Japan, and twenty-eight days by the Canadian Pacific. And, moreover, the trains will run once a day, as against the weekly mall boats. The fares throughout Siberia will be phenomenally low, and a first-class tick--. from London to Port Arthur will not. It is said, cost mors than $105.

The charge for second-class passengers will be three-fifths of this sum, and for third-class two-fifths. Some recent' Government statistics pub-. llshed concerning the population of Russian cities and towns are most Instructive. According to these statistics the total population of 8t. Petersburg, Including suburbs.

Is L133.0QO. of whom no less than 653,000 are peasants. There ere other cities In Russia with aa even great proportion of Pf thus, for Instance. with 61S.O00 peasants, against MO.000 Inhabitants belonging to other sods I classes; and Odessa, with i.ivi, surprise will no doubt be felt at this predominance of the lem.7,A to tb taur largest Rus- slan cities, but It must be remembered that the number or Russian peasants is verr greaL The population of the emnire about 130.OCO.000. of whom S.VSw"nly belong to the -aristocracy, the clerrv and the bourgeoisie.

A fact to be noted Is that the Montenegrins have been making large provisions of wheat durlna-the past few weeks. So large. Indeed, have been their purchases on the Scutari market Uat the price has risen considerably. Ia consequence of this the leading bourgeois of Scutari petitioned the Governor of the city to prohibit the exportation of cereals to Montenegro, The Governor refused to comply, but so displeased were the people of the town that they formed a league to prevent the sale of cereals to Montenegrins. The Russian Consul protested energetically against this action, without, however, any practical result.

The Governor did not dare take any further action In the matter, fearing the anger of the Albanians, who are greatly Incensed against the Montenegrins. It is to be noted that the Montenegrins are Invariably backed up by the Russians. Latterly they have received still another gUt of weapons and ammunition from the Csar. which, following so closely the action of th Russian Consul at Scutari, most significant. In.

the presence of the rapid development or Agrarian Socialism, the Government has been compelled of late to take extreme measures In various provinces against the leaders of this revolutionary movement. These repressive measures msy be regretted from a liberal point of view, but, aa a matter of fact, it would have been impossible Police to do otherwise, since at one time the movement threatened to reduce certain provinces to a state of anarchy. News from trustworthy sources has Just been received In St. Petersburg that the bubonic plague, the deadly Indian scourge, which made Its appearance In Turkestan a weeks since, is now completely under control. The hygienic measures so energetically applied by the Military Government 25, Turkestan have proved amply successful- In some esses whole villages, consisting of wooden huts, were burned by order A1 authorities, together with all the clothing and furniture of the inhabitants.

BRADFORD COLT DE QUBE3T Uf POLITICS. LONDON, Dec, 24. The English habit of dropping the discussion of serious affairs during the holiday season has put a temporary stop to the squabbles over the Liberal leadership, but Sir Edward Russell, who is writing his' reminiscences, has furnished material for a new controversy. He writes that when Lord Rosebery was resigning the Premiership the Queen earnestly, almost affectionately, begged him not to turn Conservative. He explains that her Majesty dreads the alignment of all the aristocracy on the Tory aide, against the commonalty on the Liberal side.

Lord Rosebery has requested the newspapers to deny the statement, and Sir Edward Russell says: I have good reason to believe it is true, though nobody shall drag from me my authority." The English newspapers, pursuing then traditional policy of keeping the soverign above partisan politics, refrain from commenting upon the incident, but the neople discuss the story with the utmost Interest. 1 2TCGOTIATI02HS WITH CANADA.

SB. JOHN HAMILTON DEAD. CHICAGO, Dec 24. Dr. John B.

Hamilton, ex-Surgecr General of the TJnlted States Marine Hospital Service, died In Elgin, 111., to-night. For over a year he had been Superlntenaent of the State Asylum for the Insane at Elgin, and it was within the walls of that institution that he breathed his last. It had been expected for over a week that his death would come at almost any t'me, as he was given up six days ago by his physicians. While on a visit to the East two weeks since Dr. Hamilton was attacked by a.

severe cold, and in a few days peritonitis developed. Intspite of everything, that could be done, he grew worse rapidly. and on Dec. is it was decided, by Dr. Nicholas Senn, that an operation was necessary to save his life.

The operation was performed, and at Its conclusion Dr. Senn said that In his opinion Dr. Hamilton had no chance of recovery. He rallied slightly after the operation, however, and for a few days there seemed to be a probability that he would mill through. For the last two Am he had, however, been sinking slowly, and death came at 6:30 to-night.

Dr. John B. Hamilton was Dora in 1847, In Jersey County, 111., and was graduated from Rush Medical College, Chicago. In 18U8. in 1K74 he was a pro in ted Assistant Sursann in the United State Army, but resigned In 1K76 to enter the Mar.ne Hospital Service.

Three years later he became Supervising Surgeon General of that service, succeeding Gen. John M. Woodworth. Dr. Hamilton caused the first visual examinations of pilots to be made, and the first physical examinations of seamen as prellmlnar in shipment.

During his incumbency he suc ceeded in uaving me niuonti wuarantlne sets passed, most of them pasning as drafted him. and he successfully nuimi the campaign against two epidemics of yel- tow ietr, In June. 1801, when the House of Representatives failed to pass the Senate bill providing for the equalization of the salary of his office with that of the Surgeon General of the army, and the Surgeon General of the navy. Dr. Hamilton resumed his commission of Surgeon General and returned to the ranks.

Th usual rouUnk of a busy night in th was varied early this morning by th presentation of a Christmas gift to the foreman of Tan Trams composing room, Jphn Spoth, which was as surprising to tecelv as th occasion will be pleasant to remember.

During th time he has been ff reman he has managed, With the aulet exercise of courtesy end ability, to inspire the boys with an appreciation of hie ualltles aa workman and man which thev felt could not go any longer without expression.

NOTREADY "TO GIVE CHASE. lry thing' la Trim But BoUars aad Znsa Oregon and Gloucester Ex-cpted En4rlnrg Slamalass. Arthur Warren ha an artlcl in th current number of The Engineering Magaalae, la which ho severely criticises th fflcers of th American fleet for th condition their ship wsr In when to Spanish squadron brok out of th Harbor of Santiago. With th exception of th Oregon and th Gloucss-trt says, th American squadron was unprepared to make a quick movement of any kind In th face of th enemy.

He sajn th warshlpg wer ready to shoot but not to give chase. This was on account of the -condition their machinery was In. This condition was north fault of th engineers, he asserts, but of the officers who commanded. Mr. Warren says; "For the navy the war1 with Spain in American waters was an engineers' war.

'Th man behind th gun' gave splendid servtc non better and won glory for It. So much praise was used up on him that th supply was Inadequate for distribution among all branches of the navy. Jackie deserved his honors. But even American warships do not move by wishing or by gun-fir. Th engineers put th ships where 'th man behind th gun' could give ah account of himself.

Admirals and Captains brat enough, and keen tacticians, no doubt, but th best part of the Spanish fleet would have slipped through somebody's fingers that Sunday morning at Santiago If America's fighting engineers had not. by the hardest of work, overcom th obstacles imposed upon them by orders from ths bridge. "If the fighting had been against men mor nearly kin say English or German under conditions identical with those off Bantiago on the morning of July some American hulks might now be rusting at th bottom of troplo seas. For engines were uncoupled and many fires out, and steam so low that all the energy of the stokers was required to get It up again. The American ships had been off the coast for weeks, waiting for the enemy to come out.

When the enemy came out. the American ships wer ready to shoot, but not to give chase. This was no fault of the engineers. It was not the effect of over-confidence. It was the rsault of a condition.

The condition la peculiar to naval practice. It was long ago discerned In the merchant service. In the merchant service a chief engineer controls his department. In the navy the Captain controls the engineers, and Is In turn controlled by the commanding officer of the fleet. "The chief engineer of an Atlantic liner looks to his Captain for starting and stopping signals only, tor the rest be takes his orders from his owners, and reports to them.

The chief engineer alone Is responsible for the car, operation, and economy of the machinery. In the navy the ship's Captain decides how many boilers shall be used, how much coal shall be burned, what treasure ahaU be carriod. And the Amer-can Captains at San tit go bad everything in readiness except their boilers and engines. There were two exceptions the Oregon and the Gloucester. A TRIBUTE TO THE OREGON.

"The whole world, not excepting the Spanish officers, has praised the Oregon's wonderful work cruising and fighting: What th Oregon did other American ships could do with similar men. The Oregon's record is a tribute to the fighting engineers. It is a tribute to the good sense of the commanding officer who permitted his chief engineer to control the engines. Is a tribute to the Engineer-in -Chief of th Nsvy, Commodore MelvlUe. who designed the englnea It shows the relation of the engineer to modern sea fighting.

From Bremerton, ea Puget Sound, to Jupiter Inlet, on the Florida coast. Is 14.500 nautical miles. The Oregon steamed this distance in 1.299 hours, including stops for orders and coal; she barned 4,000 tons of coal; her highest speed was 14.0 knots, her lowest J0.15W. her average, 11.16. For the most part she suited her pace to that of the little Marietta, which she convoyed.

Sie arrived at her Journey's end. Joined the blockade, and entered the fight without having to make a requisition for repairs. Eternal vigilance is the price of good englnea Robert Mllilgan, fighting engineer, and the men under him put the Oregon where the men behind the runa could deutrov the best shlDS of Warren tells of the hard work done by th Oregon' men. The vessel, he says, was twenty-seven short in the engineers' force, and sixty-seven less than her builders furnished on her trial trip. When the coaling was especially rapid the officers and men of the engineer's force worked twenty-four hours on end." and he cites as an evidence of their spirit that In the Straits oi Magellan tney wanted to try the forced draught.

Forced draught practice," says Mr. Warren, answers to Gen. Sherman's description of war. It is bell, tovery ship In the United States service is supposed by the regulations to hsve a forced draught test twice a year. Only the commander of a ship can order it.

But some of the ships havt neer tmade a forced draught run sine their trial trips. Perhaps the captains do not believe in 1L At any rate, their pien have not been trained to use It ia emersencv. Mllilgan declined to ask the Captain for permission to use forced draught. He knew that his shorthanded crew were working hard enough, and half their work was still before them, snd a fight al the end of It. Or the fight might come any day.

But the men had caught the spirit of their chief; their pride wss to keep everything in readi ness. The difficulty was not to get them to work, but to prevent them from overworking. When the chief saw that they really wanted to try rorceu oraognt ror the ship sake, he persuaded the Captain to let them do It. It was to them what gun drill Is to the men on the deck and in the turret. So they did it, and "They did it again, and at Santiago they handled the forced draught Ilk a plaything.

UNPREPARED FOR THE ENEMY. Not an ounce of salt water was allowed In th Oregon's boilers. Mllilgan, writing from Callao to a brother officer, said: I fear that am rapidly becoming the most on-bonular man in the ship, because I am de termined that we shall not. put salt water In the boilers, and to that end have insisted to the Caotaln that, if necessary, we must cut down the fresh water allowance for officers snd men to the bare amount necessary for drinking and cooking, using salt water for bathing and all other The lay mind might suppose that the object of sending the fleet to Santiago was to hsve it ready to Jump at the enemy at the sound of tbs general alarm. There is a touch of the farcical In building warships, eauiDoink' them with powerful machinery.

to be able, at the instant of battle, to get nnt a thm onlv a fraction of their cower. But somebody In authority reasoned In the fashion of GUbertlan topsy-turveydonr. So the American fleet waited for the Spaniards with engines uncoupled, hollers filled (as they had long been) with salt water when they were not empty, and half the grates dean as whistles and as cold as Ice bores. Then there waa the Brooklyn, She had five doubie-enoea ana two singie-enaea doii-rm the equivalent of six double-ended boll ra. in three water-tight compartments.

"The Commodore or th Captain always designated the number of boilers and engines to be used on th Brooklyn. In it tns.tr naif an hour or mor to counl th forward pair to the after pair of en gines, and nearly an nour uncouple loem.

THE WORK OF THE OREGON. -When th flagship set such seamanlike, workmanlike, fighting examples, what can be expected from the rest of the fleet? Chief ly, at the last minute, dependence on the fighting engineers to overcome needless ob stacles, put the ships Into position, and hold them there.

UntU that morning the Brooklyn had never been under forced draught since her CODlrmtt rlel-trlp. i have said that the service regulations require forced-draught trials at least twice a year. The regulations also p.pvlde that forced draught shall never be used, except by order of the commanding officer. The Iowa, under orders to carry steam nonfh to give a seven-knot epeed at His-ht and a five-knot speed by dev. was nent chiefly on coal economy.

The Oregon her like a racer. 'Perhaps that is why the Oregon's erratic Chaplain thought Iowa was going In th opposite direction. The Indiana was more completely unprepared than the Brooaiyn. It possible; a elaborately so aa the IowaT The Oregon -waa not favored by position -30 o'clock that Sunday morning off Santiago. She waa.

if anything, further rrorn the harbor entrance and the course of the Spaniards than the other battleehlpe. but ln the long chase her shells told the Colon that the game waa up. The Colon. In spite of her poor mechanical condition, was nearly holding her own with the Broklyn. But the Oregon, nominally of fire knots lesespeed.

was steadily raining. MlUlran's work brought the ship Into position where the man behind the gun could use his biggest armament. The Oregon was running at a rate exceeding sixteen knots. Her shots sent the Vlscaya to the ahore In flames. Her thlrteen-tnch shells compelled the Colon to surrender.

Every official report paid tribute to her work. Itls even officially conceded that but for the Oregon the Colon and probably another Spanish ship would have escaped. So much for having engines ln order, boilers ready, flresburning. Here was a ship after a 15, 000-mile run. four months out of dock, with foul bottom, and Increased displacement, almost equaling her trial trip record for speed.

And she fought ae shs ran. Inside of fifteen minutes after the full-eoeed signal was siren, she was making fifteen knots. Within an hour she was maHn nearly seventeen." Mr. Warren tells how, -coming down the Pacific the Oregon bad Cardiff coal under her boilere When she got into the Atlantic she had to pick up Inferior coal, and then Mllilgan who had a few hundred tons of Cardiff left ahoveled them Into the fighting bunkers foi an emergency. On the day of the battle Mllilgan unlocaed the fighting bunkers and the Cardiff coal helped the Oregon to make her burst of speed.

THE LOT OF THE ENGINEERS. If you were srale-1 up a heated Iron tank floating on the sea snd hammered at by missiles which now and then let In daylight and splinters, you woul 1 get a (Us. Idea of the lot of the engineer's men aboard a battleship lnsctiin. Bet the engineer's men have to w-rk in the hurly-burly, and you would go mad ln your tank. The enemy's hot pounds the ship, but the engineer and bis men know not where the enemy is or wher? the ship teccir.ir.

And they can't stop to think about it. Keep that bearing cool, smother It in oil. drewn It ln water! Keep it cool, or the game's up! The men on deck can let the splinters lie where they fall, but the men In the engine room have to keep the splinters out of th machinery. Steam pipes are pierced. Mend 'em.

Crawl behind the boilers and stop that steam leak. Impossible to shut off anything. Scalded? Never mind. It's all in the day's work. Don't let the water down.

Pass the coal lively An4. while you're about It. put out that fire in the bunkers. Grimy men. dripping with sweat, go about quietly, with clear heads, watching everything.

There's no bawling, no unusual noise, no confusion. In ths lower engine rooms the thermometer shows 136 degrees ln front of the ventilating blowers: ln the upper engine rooms. 180 degrees. Men dart Into ths upper rooms twice an hour or so, look around for a minute or two, and then dart out again. There on the hot sea.

on July 8. the temperature above the boilers of the Texas waa sometimes 200 degrees Ths fighting engineers! By old-time tradition, dating from the days when steam powei was merely an auxiliary to wind power, the naval engineers are thought of aa non-combatants. Ships change, and duties change. The engineer is now a combatant as truly as the man on the bridge or the man behind the gun. The modern fighting ship is a fighting machine; her efficiency depends upon the engineer.

The engineer of the. merchant service has suthortty which the naval engineer does not possess. It Is now proposed. In the United States Nsvy, to Improve on the practice of the merchant service. Enlightened opinion favors the plan for abolishing the distinction between line and staff.

Engineer officers are to be officers of the line. All line officers are to be taught engineering. A generation hence the anomalies of the i resent service will have passed away. The Ine officer of th future will know the engine room ss well ss the wheelhouse and the brldgg, for he will serve below as well ss a bore. Meanwhile nothing will be lost.

If we remember what the lighting engineers did to ssrs the day at Santiago." WILL Off XEELTS X0T0S. T. B. Klaralde Wilt Endeavor to Complete th Machine. BOSTON.
