Iron IUGIIT. 1891. HV TnEJiEWTOUKASSOCIATID FHESS.I Beri-ik, Sept.2C The Government finds it uesary to explain the policy of per mitting German banks to take export Bus Man loans. The unanimity of the press pro tests against Germans taking these loans lias convinced Chancellor Von Caprivi that a grave political error will be committed if n denial is not made of the rumors circulat ed by the syndicate interested in the matter that the loans have the tacit sanction of the German Governmant. All was held to be incumbent on the question that was heard eery where, from press and bourse, and the public whether the new departure in German financial pol icies toward Russia implies the annuUment of the prohibition against the Reichsbank lending money on Russian securities. The crusade of the semi-official press against "thes-e securities has been long and persist ent The question was naturally asked what liad occurred to cause the Government to re- erse the policj that it had formerly fol low ed. DEVI ED DV OFFICIAL PAPERS. The Xorth German Gazette, the official organ, publishes a communication to-night, in which it denies that tlie Government is in any ie departing from the path of jxiliticjl linance which it has trodden. The Onsite further states that no modification is intended in the prohibition against the 3;eicht,bank,Ioaning money on Russian secur- 3ties. More detailed explanations are given lor the Hamburg Comtpondcnte. This paper absolutely denies that the Government lias Mounted to the issue of the loan in Ger many. The Mendelssohn made confidential in quiries from the Foreign Office as to the Ooemment's attitude towards the issue. Tlie Foreign Office informed the bankers That thepresent political situation afforded "lio occasion for the Government to interfere ill am form. The Chancellor did not design "in the replv to oonvcv the slightest idea of approval.

This semi-official statement "uants lrankness in suppressing the fact that German houses before joining the syndicate were led to believe that the foreign office iavored the issue ol a loan here on political grounds The public clamor against sup Jilenienting the. cash balances of Germany's enemy has obliged Von Caprivi to drop his complacency toward the loan. It will not 50 here. Probably the Government never intended it to succeed.

The American Cruiser Mohican Brings Her to With a Shot. He Says the Exiles Courted Their Fate Dy Open Violations of a Known Law Baron Hindi's Scheme linns Against Numerous Difficulties. Lokdon, Sept. 2a "In Darkest Rus-. sia" points out that Baron Hlrsch's scheme, if successful, can only provide ,for about' three per cent of the Russian Hebrews. A letter which first appeared in the Anti Jacobin, which was signed "An Israelite "Wanderer," has been republished in the Afternoon newspapers, and is attracting considerable attention. It strongly defends Russia, and declares that tho laws relating to the Hebrews are by no means so bad as imagined. Referring to the domicile law, this letter says it has never been altered, but has been operated with so little rigor that one-third of the Hebrews reside to-dav in governments from which they were excluded a generation ago. This, he savs, is a sign of gradual improve ment, which is the' best to be expected from a sewi-civiliied country like Russia, Con tinuing, the writer says that 20,000 Hebrews reside in St Petersburg, and that a sjmi lar number reside in Moscow. 'Expulsions," he adds, "are entirely due to violations of the law. Ever since Rus sia opened her cities to Hebrew traders they have been recognized bv the guilds of pro fessional men and mechanics. It has been the aim of the Hebrews, who are excluded from that privilege, to obtain a settlement in the central provinces. The Guild of Me chanics' certificates have been forged, fraudulent policies have been printed and a regular trade in them has been prosecuted for years. "Certificates have also been used long after the original grantee was dead, and thus thousands of Hebrews without means or a trade have settled iu Russia, 'where they had no more right to be than a pauper emigrant has to land in is ew York. Num bers of mechanics also have forsaken their regular occupation and have taken to ped dling, thus violating the conditions under which they were allowed to settle. Others left the town where they ought tojiave re mained. "Between 150,000 and 200,000 Hebrews now reside in Russia in open violation of the law on fraudulent iermit, or by bribing officials. BeiDg undisturbed they have be come more confident and have" invested money in houses, which is against the law, and then when orders are left to enforce the domicile law the expulsions are often ac companied bv brutality. But eery Hebrew so expelled courted his own fate. They all know what they are doing when they pass the sale of their domicile. "Poor Hebrews suffer the most from the rigor of the law, being, as peddlers, porters and such like, at the mercy of every petty official, by whom thoy are hounded from pillar to post. If Baron Hirsch's scheme includes thee poor Hebrews it takes up the most unpromising material it is possible to deal with. They have neither physique for field work nor resource of anv kind. Thev and their families must be supported from the moment they leave Russia until an in definite date when they can maintain them selves unaided. The Government will not ollow tho capable, sturdy better class, who are all .military reservists, to leave the country. AN ENGLISH WARSHIP.IOQKS ON.

Captain Bingham, mili tary attache of the American Legation here, who has just icturned from the German Military maneuvers, dilated upon the cour tesy he had recehed from the Bavarian 3russian authorities. Captain Bingham caid that h-was greatly impressed by the wonderful uniformity of training which was Bhown by tlie soldiers. The marching power of the German army, he declared, was al- juo-i increuiuie. COMPLIMENTS THE FIGHTING GERMANS. Speaking of the fiehting qualities of the army, Captain Bingham said the main factor in real war, is the marching quality of tlie men, adding: "When you can count on having your foes always on hand at the rieht moment you can Win bv force of num bers." Captain Bingham " spoke In the hichest terms of praise of Emperor "Will iam's, untiring enercies in the saddle. His Majesty, be said, took the field at 4 o'clock in the morning and remained until 3 o'clock in the afternoon Even the Empress, who attended the reviews, remained m the saddle for four hours, although the heat and dust were Etifling. She smilingly saluted the troops as they passed, filling the soldiers with the freatest enthusiasm. In conclusion Cap ain Bingham said he had learned enough of valuable interest to the American arniv to compensate him for the fortnight's fatigue and hard riding.

Johnson, American Consul at Hamburg, which was read aloud by Mr. Phelps. The message read: "The first American pork certificate was presented at Hamburg to-day for 5j cases from Chicago. Other shipments are in port and many are on the way." Mrs. Phelps told the guests that if they could hold their appetites for a few hours they could have a course of American pork.

The report of the So cialist Strike Committee discloses the en tire failure of the organizations which were being arranged to bring about strikes in all the trades. There has been an extraordinary general exhaustion of the Socialists funds. "Within a year the trades unions have lost lalf their members, the leading masons' anu carpenters' unions, owing partlv to in ternal dissention, are in a state of collapse. Since the formation of the strike committee 31 strikes ha e been organized, and in every case ihe labor party was defeated. The commutes compluined of a want of foreign support The committee was prom ised nothing, but received from America and 1-ranee 1,000 marks, and from England 20, 000 marks. The strikers at first got 20 marks "weckh, the employers protracted the klniggle and the funds dwindled away until tin wen- not sufficient to give the" men 6 marks weeklj When this point was reached the men were unable to exist, and were compelled to capitulate. When the strikes were over tlie masters refused to re employ many of their old hands. The Socialists confess that they have been de feated. They propose, however, that a trades union congress be held in March next to arranze for a revival of the struggle. Kmperor I'ranrls Joseph's Trip. Viilv.va, Sept. 2i.

New York, Sept. 26. ocdal. Pretty Emma B usch, of Newark, is dead, poisoned in the dark, late on Thursday night by her lover, Ernst Lehmann, who took some of the poison himself, and is at St, Michael's Hospital praying for death to relieve him from his agony. Lehmann is 18 years old, and was employed as a polisher in the Singer Sewing Machine works at Elizabethport, where he lived. Miss Busch was a pro nounced brunette, also 18. She was the daughter of Frederick Busch, a black smith. Two weeks ago Lehmann had been devoted to her; visited her, and she told him she did not care for him and wanted him to cease his attentions. He went again on Thursday night and they sat on the stoop together. Again he pleaded with her and again she repulsed him. He proposed a parting drink and bronchi out a bottle of soda water. He dropped something in both glasses when her back was turned. The girl was found alone later in a terrible condition. He was cap tured and is now in the hospital. It is not thought that he will live until morning. The girl died at 4 o'clock in the morning. Double Duty and More Pay. A meeting of the Court House Salary Board was held yesterday.

The poacher Otto was captured on Monday, September 21, by United States steamer Mohican, in sight of an English cruiser. She was in company of another sealer Oscar and Hat tie. After au exciting chase of an hour and a quarter a blank charge fired by the Mohi can brought her to. She was boarded by a boat from the Mohican with two officers, who examined the papers and indorsed the registry, which was found irregular, having the master's and owner's names incorrect. Upon Ensign Beale reporting the same'to Captain Cotton, theJ.atter seized, the Otto and put a prize crew, with Ensign McDon ald in charge, on board, with orders to take the Otto to Ounalaska to be turned oyer and dealt with by the British authorities. The Mohican at once went in pursuit of the Oscar and Hattie, now ten miles off, but she was saved by the darkness, and ran into land when within two miles of her. The captain of the Otto had never been officially warned, but she was seized by Captain Cot ton, of the Mohican, at the request of Com mander Turner, ot H. M. S, Nymphe, the senior British naval officer, wh'o informed Captain Cotton, as senior American officer, that before the Nymphe left Esquimault he ixurner; uaa requested tne uouector 01 Customs of Victoria to warn the Otto, then lying in port and about the sail to Bering. A CODFISIIING EXCUSE. Commander Turner said he considered her a warned vessel and requested Captain Cot ton, as senior American officer, to have her seized wherever seen. Captain Roilly, the master of the Otto, savs he was never warned by Collector Milne, of Victoria, and Lieutenant Catelv, commanding H. M. S. Pheasant, who took the order to Col lector Milne, says the latter told him the Otto was going codfishiug, not sealing. In spite of this the Otto's clearance papers are for Bering Sea for hunting, signed b3' Milne. He must either have been grossly careless or wilfully deceived Lieutenant Cately. On the morning of September 2 the Mo hican overtook the Otto and towed her into Ounalaska, where she was handed over to Lieutenant Cately, of the Pheasant, as the only British officer present. He took all her papers awav and gave her orders to proceed to Victoria to be dealt with. Captain Cotton, the senior officer in com mand, who arranged the plan of the cruise against the seal poachers, has displayed marked executive ability throughout, as "his work shows. One hundred and sixteen vessels were reported to him as having cleared for the sea. Or these 89 were known to be sealers, 53 having sailed from British Columbia, an increase of 20 from thence over last year. Of the 811, 74 have been warned, two reported lost and six seized, leaving only 20 unaccounted for. NO COAL FOR YANKEE SHITS. On the evening of September 15 steamer St. Paul arrived at Ounalaska with orders to Captain Cotton to dispatch the Marion at once to China and the Alert as soon as pos sible: Captain Cotton immediately coaled the Marion from the Thetis, taking 50 tons, and she left for China via Honolulu on the 7th. He then applied to the North Ameri can Commercial Company for coal for the Alert, they having 200 "tons ashore at the time, but G. R. Tingle, agent for the com pany, who are the present lessees of the Seal Islands, had given instructions that none was to be supplied to the American men of war, so there was nothmtr for Can- tain Cotton to do but wait the arrival of the Nymphe and get permission from Com mander Turner to coal from ihe British sup ply on board the Costa Iiica. In the meantime all the American men-of-war were tied up at Ounalaska waiting coal. On the 8th the Nymphe arrived, and Com mander lurner at once gave Captain Cotton permission. The Alert immediately coaled; taking 50 tons, and left for China on the 10th. H. M. S. Porpoise left for China on August 26, and the Pheasant for Victoria on September 14. At present only the Marion, Thetis, Nymphe and cutter Rush are iu the sea. Captain Cotton had to keep the Mo hican and Thetis in harbor together so as to be able in case of emergency to get enough coal together to make one vessel at all events serviceable. x MARRIED.
