It appears evident that Admiral Dew ey has overreached himself in his ear nest denials of his statements as reported by the Filipinos. A hero who knows no enual on the quarter deck, w hen Dewey gets on land it seems as natural for him to make a fool of himself as It U for Pettlgrew. It is unfortunate that the admiral has not been more guarded In his statements, for by making the asser tion, quoted in our columns yesterday and declared therein to be false, that the Filipinos had no thought of Inde pendence till after the destruction of the Spanish fleet, he has laid open to suspicion the whole of his testimony which has heretofore been exceedingly valuable to the administration in sup porting its present policy in the Phil ippines. If in a controversy .with the native leaders Dewey is known to have spok en falsely, no greater boon to the "aun ties" could have been granted, ard doubtless they will make the most of It. . Could the word of the Filipino lead ers be relied upon we must have to admit that our conduct toward them has been little short of perfidious, for we were bound by whatever promises our admiral may have made. But as long as it was a mere question of doubt as to whether our own admiral j or the Filipinos correctly reported thei extent of the agreements entered into between them, the recognition or non recognition of the Filipino flag, and other matters in dispute, we have, of course, put confidence in our own brave Dewey. The American people will be exceedingly loath to feel that their confidence in his integrity has been so misplaced. It is evident that Dewey was merely In one of his talk ative moods and spoke unthinkingly without weighing his statements. It is also quite possible that he was mis quoted by his Interviewer.

St bwn slow In waking Up to a reallxutlon of the horrors which have been per petrated In China. The slot lea 'which have collie out have bwn go fragmen tary, so. Incoherent and to cent radio tory, that there Is a disposition to dis credit them and to refuse to believe that the fotvign resident of Pvkin have really beri massacred, with revolting tortures, as the many rumors from Chi. nese sources have asserted. In Europe the same apathy for a time existed, but It appears now that the people of the oKI countries have come to a realisation of tne situation presented and that public sentlnvnt is becoming fear fully uroued on the subject. The phlegmatic Ocrnians are bitierly en raged over the known murder of their minister at the court of China, and If the rumors (if wholesale massacre prove true, the war spirit of the country will wake up as it never has done since the march on Paris. In England pub lic opinion Is fast assuming the phase exhibited when the news of the terrible outrages accompanying the Indian mu tiny gradually became known. The Boer war has ceased to occupy pub lie attention, save as a factor in the situation which reuders Great Britain temporarily crippled In Its resources and unable Immediately to respond to the public demand for the embarking of a military expedition to revenge the innocent blood shed and to secure the world against a repetition of the Pe kln horrors. Public sentiment in France Is not so pronounced, or rather the political aspect of the situation more considered there than the fearful account whK-h has rolled up, and which mu?t be paid In Chinese blood. When it Is remembered how the peo ple of the United States flamed into righteous wrath when the Maine was blow n up in the harbor of Havana, and the war sentiment created by that act is recalled. It may seem iomewhat sin gular that the stories of the fearful outrages upon American men, women and children In t-blna have as yet aroused public sentiment in this coun try to no styious manifestation. The truth Is that the patience and conser vative good sense of the American peo ple are at present being grandly ex hlbited. They are awaiting the truth T. . . .... iney reiuse to commit tnemseives on the strength of rumors which, no mat ter how often repeated, "may yet prove to be false. It seems to many Im possible to realize that the responsible heads of the Chinese government are f) utterly depraved as to counsel and permit the horrible massacres which it is alleged have taken place; and so ignorant as not to realize that they themselves. In their own persons, may pay the penalty if Innocent life has been sacrificed. --- When the full truth is known, how- ever, and If the stories which are now mere rumors shall have been fully con firmed !n all their details, then the American people will be heard from, The feeling caused by the Maine affair will be as nothing compared to the deop and abiding wrath of the Ameri can people over the massacres in Pe- Kin. ana no sacrifice will be deemed too great, no exertion of the power of the government too strong, until those out rages have been atoned for by those responsible for them. And under that wram win oe burled the cheap and noiseaome partisans who dare at this time to assail the administration for the steps which it Is taking to protect American lives in China, and to aveng- the blood of murdered Americans.
