AMERICA'S FOREIGN POLICY.

Eolations with England- ThQ Philippines Question- United Press Association— By Eleotrio Telegraph- Copyright. Kew York, November 12. The Tribune says that the Anglo American policy is to extend peaceful commerce. The IVew York Times considers that America needs an ally m the Far \ ast, and that it would be expedient to proclaim an v open door " policy with regard to the Philippines, a3 Arae ica will be unable otherwise to withstand the opposition of France, Russia and Germany. General Miles has been banquetted here. Replying to the toast of hi* health, he said America appreciated the Mother Country's deified maintenance of America's rights during the war, Washington, November 11 A feeliug of suspicion and irritation exists m America over the Kaiser's rumoured visit to Spain. November 12 Count Cassini, the Russian Ambas sador, m the course of an interview, stated tbat-the Powers never purposed intervening against America m the late Spanish- American war. There was no occasion, and the statement that a display of British friendship for America checked the designs of the Powers was a story and a fable. Continental nations, he added, were consistently friendly to America.

SUPPOSED SHIPWRECK

United Press Association — By Electric Telegraph. Sydney, November 13 In connection with the discovery of wreckage m Foveaux Straits, it may be Btated that the German-built steel ship Philadelphia left Newcastle for Callao on August 27fch with 2700 tons of coal, shipped by J. and A. Brown.

Wellington, November 12 About six weeks ago, some wreckage, on one piece of which was the word "Philadel phia" m z'nc letters, was washed ashore »t Orepuki, Foveaux Strait. The Marine Da partment has now been informed that three large spars have been found m a bay on Stewart's Island. The fact that this wreck ago has been found at both these places leads to the belief-thafc some disaster has be fallen an American- built vessel.

Will be ah .Newmans Stables every Sat'.rd-y. King OP Qfality is a dapple bay, rising six years old, bred by Mr R. Gawn, North Taieri. He is a colt of great bubstance and power, with mary points to reeom mend him to a breeder ; has splendid feefc and pasterns, also groat bone, cl*an and flowing, v>l h nee silky hair— the true bridge of a well bred Clydesdale. He is a prime mover, has good temper, and sound constitution. His sire is Lion King, by British Lion, imported by Mr Hugh Kae, from I -cotland, by Areyle (25H7 vol vi), dam Darling, by Prince of Wales (673. vol i), grand dam Maggie, by Lochend Champion (448, vol i). Lion King was first at Dunedin Show as a three-ye^r-old, first at Dunedin m 1894 and 1895, for horse with three of his pro- geny. Lion King's dam Sc teh Annie (imported from Scotland, 343, N Z S B), was a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of blood. She was shown m New Zealand four times, gaining first and champion upon each occasion. Her sire was Ivanhoe 2nd (299, SObB) grand 6ire Ivanhoe Ist (imported; 313 NZ S B). He was got by the great Si Walter Scott, whose breeding needs n comment. Lion King's sire, British Lion is so favorably known as to need no com ment. He was considered by competent judges to be one of the best horses ever la* ded m New Zealand. King of Quality's dam, Que;n of Quality, (608, NZSB) show yard career is so well and favorably known to breeders, that it is needless to go into details ; suffice it to say, she ha 9 taken fourteen first prizes and seven champions ; among the others she was champion mare at the Exhibition show, Dunedin. This career has stamped her as a mare of unusual > excellence ; her sire is the far famed Lord Salisbury, who retired from the show ring an unbeaten horse. Queen of Quality's dam Jess, by Ivanhoe (imp. ; 113, S.B ) King of Quality as a yearling gained first prize at Taieri show and second at Dunedin. Jt will be seen from the above that King of Quality Is descended from the purest strains of prize-taking Clydes- riale blood, and cannot fail to make name for himself as a sire. Has proved himself m this district as a sure foal getter. Terms :— Guarantee —£4 4g. Season mares, £3 3s. Groomage fee, 53. All mares changing hands, first owners held responsible.
