have missed tbe vital principle placid at

of them deserved but little sympathy,
jealously malntalned the dignity of
American clilzensblp. Secretary Bayard

CONSULS LABOR ErTEOTIVELY.
There were thirty-live cases et expulsion

Intervened, making a alieug point of thofaet
tbat Germauy bad beretolure aoled as

many dcuted, bat lu inuny eases conces

zens'. It Is noted that 33 of tbe cases above
referred te W6re natives of territory which
bad belonged te Denmark until 1801. They
were Id fact Danes in bleed aud feeling and
there was reason te believe that they bad
made themfeelves obnoxious by participat
ing In anti-German demonstrations. But
the German office mode no inference te this
and Its caurse imperilled a principle which
our state department defended, lu spite of
tbe fact that " evidence of a concertert action
in emigration aud abcence of bona life in in in
tontlen te make the United States their
permanent home was net wanting in a
number of casee," and " tbn legation was
strongly Impressed with the belie! tbat
they bad no intention te return at any time
except under compulsion." And these are
the "cltizana" who arouse Republican syrn

A COMPLICATED CASU.
The cafes dealt with by the American
legation were many of them curiously com
plicated. The following specltneu gave
rise te bewildering legal fencing and in
volved tbe question aa te what constitutes
abandonment et naturalization.
Charles I.-. Qeeren wan born In France,
his father being a Freuebtuan who bad been
naturalized as un American In 1818 and had
returned te France in 1851 and lived there
until 1875. In that year both lather and
son went te America and tbe latter was
naturalized In 1881, though he bad voted
without naturalizitlen a the son of a citi
zen. He then returned te bis old home,
which bad become a part of Germany, and
waa promptly arrested ler avoidance of mil
ltaryduly. tie oemplalued of harsh treat
ment, which the German authorities do de
nled. He waa held In prison for forty days.
This case was made the subject of very
elaborate argument us te tbe ratber con p i i
catedcltlzersblpet thofatherand the ap
plication cf treiiles te Alsice Lerraine. H a
claim for damage waa filed ter use In case
sueh a clasj of ealms abeul I be made tbe
abject of a demand for Indemnity.
Frem November 2, 1885, te November 8.
1887, there wire 64 of these "military caseh"
and all of ilium wero carefully investi
gated and guarded by the legation and tbe
department of statu. The names et the
parlies are net here prluted fur lack of
space and lute rest.

J. Roberts Rsmbe, ex register of wills et
Montgomery ceuntv. left his home, in
Norrlstewn, en the 17th tnat, wblle rumor
was rlfe te tbe ctieet that hn wni a defaulter
te tbe state ler (22,000. Whilst
It Is probably true tbat thore Is
a large deficit, none of the rumors
ean be traced te any rellable source se
far aa the nmeunt Is concerned. Mr. Rambo
was regtster or wills from J832 te 1887, In
clusive, and during these six years there is
every reason te believe tbe ofnee yielded
blm legitimately tG.OOO per annum. He
was deeply involved wben elected te tbe
efflce, having failed for alarge amount In
the dry goods buMuets, In wbleh lie was
engaged for miny years prier te 183L
Prominent lu politic!', he contributed
liberally te the Republican caue, frequent
ly using Ms private funds for the beuetlt or
Individuals, lu addition te what be donated
toward campaign funds. He was a social
leader and entortalned lavishly. It waa
hntnd bv his friends that he would bave
saved considerable nieny during his
deuble form of efllce, but, ou tbe contrary,
It seems the emoluments were lnsuluoleot
te meet his expenditures.
Tbe publle accounts are audited annually
by a lawyer appointed by the ceutt of the
county. Henry Frefdlcy, auditor ler 1833,
found the rcglatei's accounts straight, only
a smsll portion of tbe last quartet's return
remaining unpild. Tbe auditor fjr 1881
was Neville D. TyBen. wbe found a deficit
of (5,148 19.
Wben asked te account for the funds dne
tbe state, Register Rambo explained tbat
tbe state treasurer allowed him te retaln
tbe fund until they wero wanted, aud thus
be bent 11 ted te tbn extent of tbe interest
earnings. Tie 1650 account waa audited
by Henry Freed ley, wbe officiated In 1883.
Mr. Frrndley cays that at tbe oleseof the
year 18S7 Mr. Rarabe was indebted te the
state te the ameuut ur ever nine tneusanu
dollars, having made no return for nine

When he departed last Wednesday no
one, save, perhaps, his family, knew his
destination. It new transpires tbat be went
te Uarrlaburg. It was his Intention te
return th'j following day, but en Friday
morning a telegram was reeelved stating
tbat h bad started tbu day previeus for
New Yerk. Siuce tbat time bis move

are telegraphing te various parts
of tbe country for Information, but
no tidings wero roealved. WhlM
many pert en a Incline te the bellef tbat the
missing register will net return, these best
acquainted with him bolleve that he will
net long remain absent His family fear
tbat in a at of desperation be may have
committed suicide. They try te console
themselves wltruhe bnpe tbat perhaps his
mstcrleus absence Is due te Illness.
Fer tbe last teu months Mr. Rambo has
been extensively angsged In real estate and

who epoke for mere than a half hour. He
was followed by William R. Brlnten, etq ,
ene et Lancaster's young Demoeratio
oratere, wbe made an adinlrable speech,
