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

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

Rankers, the replv declared, are in most
cases porlt-ctly capable cf acting upon their
own j udgtnen t. 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

grounds The public clamor against sup

enemy has obliged Von Caprivi to drop his
complacency toward the loan. It will not

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.

COMPLIMENTS THE FIGHTING GERMANS.
Speaking of the fiehting qualities of the

as they passed, filling the soldiers with the

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.

Victoria, B. C, Sept 26. 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.
