, GEKMAK FEELING IS MOST INTENSE
Over Empress Frederick's Treatment During
the Taris Yisit.
THE COLOGNE GAZBTTFS QTJEEB COURSE
TBT DUSLAr'S CADLE COMrAHT.l
Berlin, March 1. There is no need to
expatiate on the excitement existing here in
, regard to the treatment of the Empress
Frederick during her visit to Paris. The
resentment of the German people is so great
that the newspaper nrticles on the subject
for once only too faithfully represent the in
ftimmable condition of the public mind, bnt
'the universal sentiment is that whatever
may have been felt, it would have been
wiser for the press not to have aggravated
the situation by such outspoken recrimina
tion. The Cologne Gazette, the chief oflender
of the leading newspapers, in its virulence,
seems to iorget the position it once assumed
toward the august lady whose cause it now
espouses so indiscreetly, but whom it so
mercilessly attacked when her busband was
djing.
In politics! circles the Gazette's attacks
upon what it chooses to refer to as "the so
called French Governmeut,"are entirely dis
npproved. In some quarters the Cologne
Gazette's crusade against France is attribu
ted to a desire to draw off public attention
from home embarrassments, such as have
been caused by the coal and iron scandals.
William Is Very Sore.
Of course there is great soreness at Court,
and there is some likelihood of the Imperial
wrath having to be appeased by the sacri
fice of the Imperial Chancellor. The Em
peror blames General Von Caprivi just as
the French Government blametheir Ambas
sador here, M. Herbette, for approving of
the Empress journey. If Caprivi's tenure
of office is to be so short lived, bis successor
may prob.ibly be found in Herr Miquel,
who has of late obtained the Kaiser's entire
confidence, and who is evidently marked
out for some civil aud political post of great
importance.
Another persona gratissima at the present
moment, and he must be regarded ;is a re
stored favorite, is Count 'Waidersee, ex
Chief of Staff. In response to a telegraphic
invitation from the Emperor the Count ar
rived in Berlin last Thursday and spent the
evening at the castle. It is stated that at
the Emperor's instance a "Northern Tour-
its' Club" has been formed, consisting of
those gentlemen only who have accompanied
the Kaiser on his journeys to Norway. At
the meeting of the club on Thursday night,
the Count sat at the Emperor's side and
everybody was in animated spirits, the Em
peror especially so.
Xeir European War Map.
A new European war railroad map has
been published by the German General
stuff for circulation among army officers c.f
the highest rank only. A friend permitted
a Dunlap reporter to look over his copy. yes
terday, and there ar? a few notes which he
managed to write down. There are 16 dif
ferent railroad lines running from eust to
west which will enable the Fatherland to
dispatch the armies across the French frontier,
and the Rhine is bridged over 19 times to facili
tate rapid crossing at all seasons of the year.
There are already ten railroad lines for for
warding troops against Rnssia, and lour more
arc beintr constructed with the same object.
The Russian kingdom of Poland and the
Government of Wilua are already so encircled
liv the German network of railroads that the
Kaiser's armies can cross the frontier at 13 dif
ferent points, while Russia has only five lines
of railrrad converging upon the German fron
tier. And jet neare told that Russia is prepared
to throttle Germany.
OPENED HER EYES.
A Remarkable Case of Coring Blindness
Simply by Suggestion.
TBT DUJiLAF't CABLE COMPASTJ.
Berlin". March L The following remark
able case of cure by suggestion is given on the
authority of a Berlin occulist: Some days
ago a noinan was brought before him. who
professed to be unable to open her eyes. She
had suffered, it w as stated, from this novel
form of blindness for a fortnight. The occnlist
tried several simple methods of cure without
success, and at last hit upon the following: lie
told the patient that he would cure her by
magnetism bv holding a powerful macnet lh
front of the obstinate members lor 15 minutes.
If your eyelids can resist this," he said, "you
are insurable ami must remain blind for life."
The occnlist then directed an assistant to
hold two keys m front uf the woman's eyes for
the prescribed time, and at the same time lie
tola the patient that she must open her eyes
after 13 minutes had expired, which would be
signaled by the striking or an alarm clock.
When the alarm stiuck, which it did with the
Uhual emphasis of such thing, a nervous sen
Rail on teemed to take possession of the toman

leaf and finally opened the left ere, crying out
as she did so. "Oh. the light; the light!" The

beside herself with joy.
FINE "WORK OF ART.
An Etching of Columbus That Is Attract
ing Much Attention.
BT DUXLAF'S CABLI COMFA1TT.1
Berxxx, March L Max Horn is giving the
finishing strokes to an etching of "Columbus
Before the Council of Salamanca," proofs of
which are certain to be much sought after Dy
American virtuosos. A preliminary proof was
submitted to-day to a select gathering of con
noisseurs at the Jacques Caspart Art Gallery.
Columbus is represented seated in the richly
decorated council chamber. The council has
rien and the members are in the act of retir
ing, apparently for the purpose of considering
rheir decision. A few are lagging behind to
glance uneasily at the future discoverer of
America, wl-om they rather suspect to be not
altogether sane.
Columbus sits on a carved bench, his square
muscular frame draped in a mantle with velvet
bell sleeves. It is the picture of a forlorn and
disappolnt-d roan, ills long hair hangs
disheveled about his lofty brow. His clear
gizc seems endeavoring to pierce f ntnrity, and
ltis'arms are outstretched as if to seize some
distant object which is eluding his grasp. The
figures are intensely Hfe-liKe and the descrip
tive power of the artist is shown in a remark
able decree.

Berlin, March L Early in January Ger
many was curioasly reminded of the faot that
just 20 years had elapsed since the great war
with France, by the number of young men
eligible for military service in the coming

great diminution in the number of births in

It is since learned that most of the mountain

HE MAKES Art ADDEESS AT DBOOHEDA
AND ANOTHER AT KAVAH.
The Hope Expressed That, His Opponents
Will Free Themselves From English
Entanglements Minister Porter Gives
a Reception to Americans in Rome.
By Associated Press.
Dublin, March 1. Replying to a depu
tation at Drogheda to-day Mr. Parnell said
he was rejoiced at the proof of support
everywhere accorded him. This, be said,
showed his opponents that Irishmen would
not allow them to degrade the public plat
form by permitting them to strike below the
belt under the pretext of dealing with ques
tions of public moment. If tbe difference
between tbe two factions was Dot fought out
upon diguified lines the'blame would not fall
upon his supporters. They would strain every
point to accord their opponents a fair bearing,
but If their opponents outraged tbe sense of
the people by going outside the limits of de
cency tbe people would justly reseut their con
duct. At Navan Mr. Parnell said: Some day in the
distant future somobody would arise privileged
to address them, not as men of royal Meatti.
but as men of republican Meatti. It was
Meath which first gave him an opportunity, 16
years ago, to serve Ireland in puolio life. At
vbat moment during that perioa had he ever
been unfaithful to the principles then pledged?
They had won a bnndred skirmishes together
and now he wanted to be allowed to battle
with them. Already they had bnt a snaffle in
the month of the landlords. By and by, with a
Parliament in College Green, they would fit
these same months with bit aud birdoon.
In conclusion he expressed the hope that his
opponents would take warning of tbe portents.
A popular storm was likely to sweep them
away. Instead of opposing tbe rally to his side,
let them free themselves from the entangle
ments and English party alliances woven
around tbem by the "Grand Old Spider.' The
gate of repentance was still open. If they
waited too late the gate would be shut, and
they would become marked on the pages of his
tory as deliberate traitors to Ireland.
Royalty Visits a Sculptor.

foundry to see the statue of the Ametican Re
public and groups representing the army and
navy, designed for the soldiers ana sailors'

sculptor's work and complimenting him upon
his success. In tbe naval group is a representa
tion of Admiral Farragut, which was at once
recognized by the Queen. King Humbert will

American sculptor.
The Ex-Empress Felt Grateful.
Losdox Ex-Empress Frederick wrote a
letter to Emperor William last Thursday
night in which she said she could not under
stand the necessity of shortening her stay or
avoiding publicity in Paris. Every one with
whom she has been in contact, she said, had
been very polite to her. andln fact she felt
grateful for the attention She had receired.
She begged her sun to keep cool, saying she
was convinced that everything would come out
all right in the end.
Reception to Americans.
Rome The great event of the season here
was the reception given to American residents
of Rome last night by Mr. Porter, tbe United

who have become allied to Italian families by
marriage. The guests were received by the
American Minister and Miss Porter. Seven

FEAES OF A DISASTROUS FLOOD.
The Senate Stronelv Urged to Pass tie
House Emergency Bill.
RELIEF NEEDED TO ATEET A CJLA1IITI
New Orleans, March 1. Concerning
the condition of the .levees and the uneasy
feeling produced along the lower Mississippi
by tbe continued rising of the water the fol
lowing information has bees received:
Colonel E. E. Wright, editor of the Vicks
burg Commercial: The high stage of water
from Cairo to tbe Gulf creates uneasiness
through this section. Another rise in tbe
Ohio, and accompanied with one from
the Arkansas, would put the levees to
a severe strain, and especially tbe
new work just completed or in process of
completion. Tbe local levee boards ex
pended last spring large sums of money to
protect the levee, and last fall in repairing
breaks in them cau.'ed by the overflow of
last year. The people in this section earn
estly hope Ithat the 51,000,000 emergency
bill passed by the House and now pending
in the Senate will be passed before Congress
adjourns so as to make this sum available
in case of need, as the local levee boards
are not as strong financially as they were
last spring,
A Very Critical Situation.
A telegram from Captain Lambert, for
many years editor of the Natchez Democrat,
says: The situation of the river matters
along the Lower Mississippi just now is quite
critical. While the water in sight does not ap
pear to be sufficient to cause a flood height at
taining that of last year, yet the indications
now are for rains through a considerable
portion of tbe valley, and if they should occur
it is probable that the floods of last year
would be equalled the present season. Many
of the tributaries of the Lower Mississippi are
now bank full, and even ordinary rains affect
tbem.
All the water that tbey pour into tbe river
increases the danger to that extent, and there
is no telling what the final results will be. Tho
levees arc not really in so good condition as
they were at this time last year, and there is a
constant fear of their giving way nnder the
pressure at many points along tne line, mere
is every reason now why Congress should come
to tho relief of the people of the Mississippi
Valley and make prompt aud liberal appro
priations for the levees. Not only the property
of tbe people, but their lives as well are de
pendent upon maintaining the levees and this
can only be done by the National Government
coming to their assistance.
Disastrous Overflow Threatened.
The Louisville, New Orleans and Texas
Railroad having suffered great damage by the
overflows last season, R. F. Reynolds, commer
cial agent of the company, was to-day inter
viewed concerning the outlook. He said: "I
have been in communication to-day by wire
with all points between this city ana Memphis,
and the conclnsion arrived at is that tbo
present condition of the Mississippi river and
tributaries threatens a disastrous overflow
from Memphis to New Orleans The main
river as well as the tributaries are higher than
at this date last year.
The greatest apprehension is felt by all liv
ing in the MlssissipDi Valley, and if immediate
help was given by Congress many millions of
dollars' worth of property could be saved. The
planters and people have not been idle, but,
seeing tbe great danger that threatens their
lands and homes, have done, and are doing, all
their means, limited by their their last year's
misfortune, will admit. Tbe fight of 1890 is now
being repeated, with the rivers higher tban
last year, and still rising at an alarming rate.
A repetition of the devastation and disaster of
1890 wonld mean a loss of millions to the States
of Arkansas, Mississippi, and Louisiana and to
the country.
Tne Government stoamer General Newton
returned to-cay to Natchez from the Kemp
levee, whither she went with a barge of lum
ber and other materials to oe used in strength
ing tbe levee. Tbe continued rise in the river
necessitates constant and activo work in order
to make sure that it will hold out against the
water. The levee will require constant work
until a decline sets iu.and tbe utmost watchful
ness will be necessary to save it.

A HOVEL SERVICE.
The First Syrian to Be Ordained a Priest in
the United States.
'f r-ECtAt. TELKORAM TO THE UrSFATCH.:
New York, March 1. At SU Patrick's
Cathedral to-day Archbishop Corrigan con
ferred holy orders on the first Maronite to be
ordained a priest in the United States. His
name is Joseph Yasbek. The Maronites are
Syrian Catholics who are allowed to retain
th'eir ancient form of worship. In strange
contrast to the other priests, the Maronite
wore a mustache.
The dark-skinned Syrnian prostrated him
self at full length on the sactuary floor. The
Archbishop turned from the altar, crozierin
hand, and blessed the prostrate form three
times. The Litany was then resumed to its
close, and the Syrian arose. On him was
then placed the stole, his hands were conse
crated with holy oils, and the power to cele
brate mass was bestowed; after which the
Syrian became co-celebrant with the Arch
bishop of the ordination mass.
WOBLL'S FAIR SUBSCRIPTIOHS.
Organized Labor Wants to Pay Only Upon
Certain Conditions.
Chicago, March 1. Chicago organized
labor is in arms over letters from Treasurer
Seeberger, of the World's Fair directory, as
to unpaid stock. A circular received by
Mr. Meagher, reads:
My collector reports that you in common
with a number of persons evidently of the
same family decline to pay the installments dne
on your subscriptions to this company because
you want first to learn whether or not the work
on the fair building is to be done by union or
non-union labor. I want to inform yon that
this has nothing whatovcr to do. with the
question, but even if the question were abso
lutely fixed as to whether union or non-union
men were to bo employed it has nothing what
ever to do with jour obligation to this sub
scription list. This company does not propose
to have anyone dictate what shall or shall not
be done. The names of delinquents are being
handfd over to a collecting attorney and you
will find that such excuse will not avail.
Contrary to expectation, the World's
Fair directory has taken no action on the
demands of the labor unions.

STATE PRISON SCANDAL.
THE NEW G0TEE1T0B OF THE BAY
STATE TJOTSABTH8 A BIO ONE
Guards Discovered to Be Furnishing Con
victs With the Means of Escape Saws,
Files and Revolvers Hough for the
Prisoners at Large Profits.
rcrttniAL TELIOKAM TO Tni PISPATCH.I
Boston, March 1. Governor Russell has,
unearthed a big scandal in connection with
the management of the Massachusetts State
Prison, which will result in the decap
itation of eight or ten guards and a re
turn of a greater number of prisoners.
For two months past the convicts have
been cutting their way out of the Charles
town bastile. Tbe warden has been puzzled
by the unwonted conduct of aflairs, but
could not account for the presence of so
many saws, files, etc., in the hands
oi the convicts. Governor Russell started
a little informal investigation on his own
responsibility, and it disclosed the fact that
the prisoners were furnished with tbe means
of escape by the very guards who were
sworn to keep them in confinement.
For a long time past certain of the guards,
about 8 or 10 out of CO, have been making
money nut of the convicts by selling them
saws, files and revolvers. One guard was
caught after having made a bargain
with the sister of one of the
prisoners, to whom extra privileges were
allowed. He was discharged. Tbe other
guards seem to have been tempted by the
big sums of money offered by the prisoners.
It is hard to get at the exact offenders, be
cause everything wrong has been done
through a third and sometimes a fourth
party.
One prisoner secured his saws by giving
money to a convict, who knew a convict
who could find the officer to bring the articles
to him. The revolver found in the hands of
one of the prisoners at the time of the big
riot last summer was brought into the
prison by an officer for one of the convicts.
It cost the convict $25, and the officer made
a profit of about $20 on the deal. Of course
all the offenders will be dealt with as their
offense demands.
A LEGITIMATE ALIAS.
Why a Conductor Asked for a Pass Contain
ing Two Names.
"I got a queer request from a conductor
for a pass tbe other day," said a prominent
Chicago railroad man In the Southern cor
ridor to a writer in the St. Louis Globe-
Democrat. "He asked for a pass to one
point for a young lady whom he designated
as Miss , and from there to Chicago for
the same young lady as Mrs. , his own
name. I inquired how this was, and when
I received the explanation I allowed tbe
passes. He was on bis regular run, and did
not care to lav off for a day, even though he
was to be married.
"He had his home all nicely furnished in
Chicago, and tbe young lady was to meet
him at the station where her parents lived.
A minister was to board tbe train there,
also, and tbey were to be married on board
bis train. Everything went off all right,
and they were married according to the pro
gramme. The only trouble was that tbe
marriage service was a little longer tban he
expected and he bad to suspend operations
for a couple of minutes for his train to make
a station. They are now quietly living in
Chicago and have a very pretty little home.
The train crew furnished the witnesses to
the ceremony, and altogether it was an ideal
railroad man's wedding. Several presents
were received by the young cnuple, and the
passeugers took up a purse, which they gave
to the bride."
AHEBICAN TBADE IN GEBMANY.
Excellence of Onr Woods and Tools Begin
nlng to Be Recognized.
It has been pointed out by an American
resident in Germany that among many
things which there is a large field for in
that country are mechanical tools of all de
scriptions and many of our agricultural im
plements, American timber and articles
manufactured from American timber, be
cause tbe timber of tbis country is superior
to that of Germany on account of its grow
ing in a drier atmosphere, and being there
fore much tougher and less brittle.
A piano factory in Weimar, whose pro
prietor was a number of years in the United
States, and worked there at his trade, re
alizes the value of American wood and uses
no other in the construction of his pianos,
and to thii he attributes tbe great success
he has achieved and the satisfaction given
by his wares, even when they are exported
to such dry countries as South America and
Australia. In this lactory were found none
but American tools, it being found that
more work could be accomplished with
tbem than with any other.
The German nation is beginning to real
ize the superiority of the American hard
ware, agricultural implements, mechanical
tools, machinery and many classes of use
ful ind ornamental fancy goods, and freely
acknowledge their perfect finish and dur
ability. CANADA'S LIVELY CAMPAIGN.

Strong- Kffort to Be Mado to Pass the
Pool Selling Bill.
SENATOR JOHN KEEB'S OPINION.
Mark Baldwin Fails to Capture Catcher
- O'Connor for the Local Club.
GENERAL SPOKTING NEWS OP TUB DAT
Those haying in charge the bills to amend
the State pool selling law are still quite
hopeful of success, although the Agricul
tural Committee have reported negatively
on Mr. Lafferty's bill. Senator John Neeb
is tolerably confident that the bill intro
duced in the Senate by bim will meet with
satisfactory success, and that the law will be
amended. During a conversation yesterday
the genial Senator said:
"My bill has not been before the com
mittee yet, but I know that fonr out of tbe
seven members are in favor of it,
so that it will be reported affirma
tively. The trouble has been that so far
my fonr supporters on tbe committee have not
been all present at the same time. As soon as
I can get them all together, which will be
shortly, my bill will be dealt with. Certainly
the Ia4 ought to be changed so as to permit tbe
selling of pools at tbe various race tracks wbllo
the races are going on. That is all that is de
sired and as long as the law will not permit thio
there will be a worse system of betting. In fact
a system that in every way tends to encourage
dishonesty and prompt boys to gamble. Th
law can regulate betting, but cannot eradicate
it. This has certainly been proven in European
countries where tbe matter has been dealt with
more or less for generations. In England
tbe law does not prevent betting or pool
selling on the race tracks, but it
does prevent betting off the tracks
except in licensed clubs, and it is worthy of
note that the most bitter ooponents of
betting or pool selling off tbe race tracks can
see tho wisdom of permitting it on the tracks.
Experience and a very long experience at that
has proven that the best way to deal wlthbet
ting on horse racing is to regulate it Of course
in some quarters there is strong opposition to
tbis notion, but tbe opposition is mostly built
on prejudice. For instance, I know a State
Senator who thoroughly believes in the neces
sity of making my bill a law, but he is afraid of
his constituents. The latter have only a limited
knowledge of tbe question and do not see bow
it affects big cities, either morally or finan
cially. I certainly claim that my bill, if mado
a Iau, will bo a benefit in all respects."
Tbe Senator declined to express a definite
opinion regarding tbe chances of bis bill pass
ing. But he is vltj hopeful of success.
Nor has Mr. Lafferty given up hope of hav
ing his bill passed. It is understood that-be in.
tends to trv and have it submitted to tbe Com
mittee on Vice and Immorality. If he can suc
ceed in accomplishing this, it will be reported
favorably to the House, and then tbe chance of
success will be very encouraging. Without
doubt there is a popular desire iu and about
Pittsburg to have tbe old law amended to a rea
sonable extent Sentiment is strongly against
the existing law on the matter.
AL. TALKS SOME M0BE.
Johnson States That He Has Regained
Several of His Good Players.
Cincinnati, March 1. Mr. Al Johnson ar
rived here at noon to-day. In an interview to
night he said to the Associated Press correspon
dent: "I have seen Marr, talked with bim and
left bim to shape his future as he chooses.
Holliday I signed to a binding contract and
paid him 53C6, which be claims as back dues.
He agrees to stand by his first contract. I got
a guarantee from McPbee to live up to his
original contract Reidj I will meet to-morrow
and will sign bim. I bo two last named
have been paid an advance on 1S9L My Cin
cinnati clnb is now assured and is tbe strongest
in ihe association.
"The following have been secured beyond re
call: Pitchers, Foreman, Duryea, Rbines and
Mullaue: mlieiders, Tebeau, Latham, McPhee
anil Reillv; catchers, Harrington and Mike
Kelly, who is also captain and manager; out
fielders, Delehanty, left; Holliday. center; Hoy,
right. I had no difficulty in winning back tbe
players seduced bv tbe League in my absence,
by clearlv showing tbem the facts in the case.

claims an option and found water five feet
deep all over them. My Western avenue
grounds were dry. It will cost the League
15,000 to put their gronnds m order. lam

way."
A LITTLE TOO GAY.
Jack McAuliffe Wants to Eace FltzslmmonK
for Fonr Ronnds.
New York, March 1. There' is one man
among the hundreds who saw Bob Fitzsimmons
whip Jack Dempsey who does not believe that
the New Zealander 13 anything like the phe
nomenon he is cracked up to be. That man is
Jack McAullfTe, and he declared to-day that ho
would box bim four rounds If suitable arrange
ment regarding the division of the pnrse could
be made.
'1 know perfectly well that I can't whip
him," said McAuliffe to-night, "but he can't
stop me in four rounds."
''But you remember that this man has won
nearly all of his battles in two or three
rounds?"
Jack answered: "1 am willing to take a
chance with him for four round?."
In tbo opinion of many sporting men a match
such as McAuliffe suggests would result disas
trously for him. His backer, Dick Roche, said
to-night: "McAuliffe is. his own master, but in
my judgment he would be unwise to make a
match with a man so much bigger than him
self," COULDN'T CATCH O'CONNOR,
Baldwin Fails to Sign His Old Catcher
Uanlon Says a Few Words.
Manager Hanlon stated last evening that
Mark Baldwin has failed to sign Catcher
O'Connor. "But," said Mr. Hanlon, "we are
not much in need or O'Connor now that Mack
is going to show up. Hecker will likely be
borne to-morrow and then we'll bear about the
Browning affair."
It is now stated that Fogarty's illness has not
Dsen as severe as reported, and it is thought he
will be able to play wben tbe season opens.
Manager Hanlon has great hopes of securing
blm, and if be is signed the local team will
have the best outfielder in the country.
President O'Neill ill leave for New York
tbis evening to attend the League meeting
which commences to-morrow. He is inclined
to enaonrage the Association to abandon their
war notions and to get to work and organize
themselves Into a good minor league. Tho
Cleveland Leagne magnates are in favor of
making a deal with Al Johnson, that is to buy
him our. and if that is done the Association
will bo thoroughly settled.

that there wa3 no cure for me. I got worse and
worse. Scales would form over the sores and then dry out until they would
crack and pop open, showing a watery matter. My skin was all like a dry
wrapper. It felt as though it had dried on me. The scales were so bad that
they would collect in the bed and have to be shaken out. It was about this time
that I commenced using B. B. B. I was so bad that I wa3 ashamed to tak3 my hat
off before a neighbor. I had used five bottles of another medicine without noticing
any effect ; but when I commenced to take B. B. B. tho sores came out thicker
than before, and they burned like fire ; they were immense blotches of fire that
would burn so I could not sleep. The way they burned and itched can not bo
told, and I hope no one else.may ever know from experience. The only relief X
could get was from washing the sore3 with some B. B. B.
I stuck to the medicine and was on the fourth bottle before I could see that I
was really better, although I knew that it was better to get such rottenness out of
my blood than to have it stay there. I did say once that I wished I had never
commenced taking B. B, B., but my wife encouraged; me, and to-day I thank her
for the advice, for I am in good health now, and I don't believe I ever would have
been with my blood in such a condition as it was.
My scalp now is clean and clear of all scales and tetter, and on my body there
are only small spots to show where the sores were, and these spots are free from
scales. I do not doubt but that the cure will be perfect.
I am now on the sixth bottle and will take more until every spot Is gone. I
firmly believe that Burdock Blood Bitters will cure the worst disorders of the blood,
for such, certainly was mine.
