"It is tall untrue," said the. prince. "I have never written to Admiral Dewey to my life." rrhe last seen, of the prince from the shore here was when, he stood on the bridge of Kron Prinz Wilhelm, in an admiral's uniform, and lifted his cap in response to the cheers of the assem bled crowds.

London, Feb. 10. The Anglo-Japan ese alliance conitimues to be the ab- ; sorbing topic in Europe despite the pa cific assurances in parliament. This great new factor in the world's poli tics causes much uneasiness if not ap pression in consols. This feeling is em phasized by Lord Lainsdown's state ment that Manchuria is (to be regarded as part of China under the (terms of the treaty.. Some, alarmists argue, therefore, ithat it is iwdthin Japanese power ait any moment to undertake to drive Russia from Manchuria and com pel Great Britain to take part in the controversy by including France in the quarrel. The Spectator says: "If a continuance of Russia's occu pation of Manchuria ds held to con stitute a violation) of the integrity of China, then we are plunged 5nto a whirlpool." The explanation contained in a de spatch 'from Tokio that England was virtually forced into the alliance by Japan threatening Ito join Russia is ac cepted as ti-uth.

Firemen who groped their way through fire and smoke and dragged six dead bodies nto the street from Bennett's hospital at Ada and Fulton streets last night, carried on their heroic labor in the tbelief that they were rescuing persons who had been asphyxiated and not un til the flames had been subdued did they learn that they had been in the dissecting room of Bennett Medical college and that the rescued bodies were from tne dissecting tables or tne school. Several of the cadavers were clothed, having been brought to the school in that condition. One 'cadaver SENATE CONSIDERING . CENSUS RUREAU BILL Washington, Feb. 15.

She was es corted to the capitol shortly Ibefore noon and introduced to the joint session by Senator Cayce, who ispoke of her la mented husband, of his distinguished services to his country and of the un dying love of the (people of Mississippi for the only president of the Confeder ate states. Mrs. Davis broke down completely when she attempted to Teply to Senator Cayce. She had been invited here by the legislature, she said, and made the long journey that she might once more see the friends and comrades of her husband in the historic old capitol of the state that delighted to honor him. When she came to express her feeling she burst into tears. "Gentlemen," said she, "all I can say is tnat tne name or Mississippi wm be-written 6n my heart when I die, and that I shall always tenderly love the people of Mississippi, who clung to the athletic. I cause of a defeated man. I can say no more.' She would have sunk to the floor but for Sfpeaker Russell and Lieutenant Governor Harrison, who supported her to a chair. Mrs. Davis was assisted from the speakers' stand, and the old veterans. yitizens and little children crowded around her. The scene was very af fectiner. Mrs. Davis' mission here is to sen her home, "Beouvoir." She left for Vicksburg and will go from there to New Orleans and thence to "Beau- voh" . Initial THE .
