Observed at Washington.
Washington, Dec. 2. Brilliant
official and religious ceremonies, com
memorative of the 50ch anniversary of
Emporer Francis Joseph's accessiop to
the throne of Austria, were held at St.
Matthews church today. The cere
mony was under the auspices of the
legation, and in recognition of its
national character President McKin
leyand Secretary Hay were present in
behalf of the United States govern
ment, while the foreign governments
were represented by the full strength j
of the diplomatic corps. s :
London, Dec. 4. The practical con
clusion of the peace negotiations at
Paris is hailed here with considerable
satisfaction and the newspapers daily
discuss the so-called "imperial" future
of the United States, coupled with the
(ervent1hope that they will adopt a
colonial policy. In fact, the latter
point is regarded as being the corner
stone of the Anglo-American under
standing, which is now an important
feature of every political speech de
livered oft this side of tbe Atlantic.
The Saturday Review is candid about
what it describes as the "slobbering
cant and hypocritical blazoning of
doubtful affection," between the
United States and Great Britain and
says: "Let us be frank and say out
rigWt that we expect mutual gain in
material interests from this rapproche
ment. i . .
"The American ' commissioners at
Pari9 -are making " their . bargain,
whether ' they realize it or not, under
the naval strength of England, and we
shall, expect a material quid pro quo
for this assistance. We expect the
United States to deal generously with
Canada in ttiB matter of tarriffa, and
we expect to be remembered when the.
United States comes into possession of
the Philippines and above all we-ex-pect
her assistance on tbe day which
is quickly approaching on which China
conies up for settlement, for tbe young
imperialist has entered upon a path
where it will require a strong friend
and a lasting friendship between tbe
two countries, - which cannot be se
cured by frothy sentimentality on pub
lie platforms, but by reciprocal a J van
tages in solid, material Interests.'! ;
The foregoing opinion is certainly
outspoken enough, but ' every Ameri
can moving in business circles here
knows that it voices the expectations
of the average Englishman.

Portland, Dec. 51 United States
Circuit Jdtf GSbert's decision last
Saturday Uvfiytfji: of the defendant in
the case, of (J. ol. Patterson against
Walter' Barrel, virtually bars all
further legal proceedings on part of
the depositors of the late Portland
Savings bank against the directors
thereof to recover their unpaid depos
its. - .
Judge Gilbert held that under the
code the statute of imitations in the
case of bark directors. expires in three
years, and as Patterson failed to bring
action against B.urrell.a director, with
in that period,, he. had no standing in
court.
This leaves hundreds of depositors,
who had hopes of recour.no against the
directors, in the cold. -
