THE KAISER'STONGUE
As It Was Loosened at Bran-

of All Germany.
HIS, LATEST BIG SPEECH
Is Bringing Together Strong Parties
in the Formation of
A UNION AGAINST ABSOLUTISM.
Xational-Liberals Meeting H bj Eefnsing
to Vote Supplies.
AFTERMATH OF THE BREAD IUOTIXG
COPYRIGHT. 1S92. BT THE XEW TOEK ASSOCIATED
PBKSS.'
Berlik, March 5. The leaders of the
Xational-Liberal and Freismnige parties
are exchanging confidences with a view to
concerted action against the Emperor's ab-s-olutUm.
The parties hae too widely di
vergent programmes to permit of fusion,
but in the face of danger from a common
enemy who would destroy them both, a
temporary coalition is recognized as being
inevitable.
The question now discussed in the lob
bies of the Keichsta i, what plan of cam
paign ought to be adopted agaiust the Gov
ernment? 'Jhe leaders of the Fresinnige
partj want to challenge openly the preten
sions of the Einperor by raising a debate in
regard to the pending press prosecution.
The more cautious National Liberal tac
ticians however, advocate the adoption of
a policy of obstruction in the Keichstag
and Landtag in the consideration of the
estimates usiug whatever constitutional
checks the Deputies have on the Govern
ment in granting or withholding money.
The Emperor has felt lhecheck during the
week in the refusal of the Deputies to vote
an appropriation for the construction of
cruiocrs and corvettes.
Tiev Conservatives Hold the Tta!ancr.
The proposed coalition would not be suf
ficient to ocrthrow the Emperor's pet legis
lative projects unless an alliance vviw ef
Iccted with the Free Conservatives. If the
ad ice of Prof. Delbnick, one of the mot
proniincut of the Free Conservatives, be
followed, this alliance will soon be accom
plished sn 1 the Government, no longer able
io rely on a compact Clcrico-Conservative
majority, ought to Miccumh and the Em
peror adopt a new line of policy. But no
bod v expects this fortnnate Ksnc.
The Emperor mirlil diolve the Tleichstag
and Landtag, trusting to obtain a majority
through tlie labor vote and a union ot the
Clericals aud i-tealfast Conservatives, or he
might go lurther toward absolutism by
governing on the strength of his preroga
tives and despite the I'arhamcutarv majori
ties Even tiling known regarding Em
rieror 'William's mood points to His Ma
jestv's readiness to act as an irresponsible
ruler il allowed to do so.
The press prosecutions are undertaken in
accordance with his express instructions.
Tlios who seek to apologize for and excuse
His Majestv, assert that the prosecutions
vcre inltia'cd in consequence of the course
pdopted by the public prosecutor, and that
they vrcre not piompted bv the Emperor,
and weic contrarv to his wishes.
Tlie Kaiser on the Slippered Grtnralaiaz
It is a well-known iact that the Emperor
hs been sreatlv enrased by the press com-i.ient-
on the criticisms ot his Brandenburg
speech, and is determined to contest the
generalh-reconi7t.d rights which have
hitherto protected the piess from prosecu
tion. The Brandenburg soeech continues
to be the universal topic ot converfation.
The nh"-asc which excites the most com
mei t, and w hich is becoming familiar as a
proverb is the one in which he advises the
liscinteuted, ".Xorglerden Deutchen staub
von lliren pantofleln Schutteltcn." It is
asked, at whom he aimed as "Slippered
grumblers"' It certainly could not have
been the Sicialists, nor could it have been
the pr.'gr-sistSj a neither of these parties
is idci.tiiied with a lite of slippered ease. It
is surmised that the phrase had reference to
till. XatioLal Liberals; perhaps to Prince
Bisinarcn. a.'d Herr von Bennigscn, the
leader ot toe National Liberals, and Dr.
Mi.iel, the Finance Minister. Another
surmise is that the Emperor simply hit the
phiase in a moment ot exhilaration."
1 no Kmpro: Can't Maud W inp.
His Majesty drinks less than most wine
drinkers, but he can stand less Alter tak
ing to glasses of champagne he becomes
talkative, and after the third becomes indis
crete and pugnacious. His after-dinner
speeches usually require toning down, but
tiie Brandenburg utterances were published
without having been edited. The prosecu
tions of the press iraplv that the Emperor
has decided to abide by his recent declara
tions which are offensive to most edu
cated Germans.
The levival of the brandy mo
nopolv scheme, on which Prince Bis
marck was defeated in 1880, means that
Emperor William and Chancellor von Cap
riviare diuntless in the face of existing
difficulties and will deliberately raise tnore.
To sum up the position, Germany is on the
verse ot a period ot internal turmoil,
which may afiord the monarchy's external
enemies a long-hoped-for chance of attack.
The Keichstag h is passed the credit for
the suppression of the slave trade in East
Africa. Previous to the passage of the
credit, Dr Kaysor, the head of the Colonial
Department, made his report, in which he
stated tht the imports and exports ot East
Africa were gratifying.
The Bundesrath has approved the copy
right treat? with the United States.
li.ism.irck tt utchinz Kilkenny Cats.
According to the Tacghclic Rundhdum,
Prince Bismarck recently told a friend that
he would appear in the Upper House
shortly, but that he would remain a silent
listener to the debate on the Prussian edu
cation bill. The ex-Chancellor declared
that he would not interfere, hut would
watch the parties meet the fate ot the fight
ing Kilkenny cats of which there were left
onlv the tails.
Double-leadedannouncements are made
bv the semi-official press that the police
have discovered a number of red flacs in
tended for use in a proposed demonstration
to be made on the lsth inst to celebrate the
revolution of 1M8. Within a week the
police have been reinforced and are now be
ing rapidlv reorganized with a view to be
ing in readiness lor any contingency. The
Socialist leaders assert that the statement
that a demonstration is to be made is a fic
tion, and the anarchists are looked upon as
lacking power to make any important niani
lestatiou. Arrests continue to be made daily as a re
sult ot the recent riots. Detectives-are on
the watch constantly at the railway stations,
iyjd have taken into custody several persons
ispected of being French anarchists. These
persons are now lodged in the Moabit
prison.
T7HALEBS JOE THE AKTABCTIC.
A Small Svndlcat Formed for the Par
pose of-xptoration. .
TEV CAM.E TO THE PISFATCIT."
Loxdok, March 5. Captain Grey, of
Peter:iead, a Scotch whaler of large experi
ence, has formed a small syndicate with the
object of testing the value of the Antarctic
region as a whaling ground. . The famous
explorer. Sir John Boss, always believed
that plenty of whales may be found in
southern seas, and Captain Grey is disposed
to agree with him.
Grev hopes to be able to take -two ships
this season. They will cost 24,000 to fit
out, and Grey thinks big profits may be
made if there are any whales stall in the
Antarctic Ocean. Dr. Nordenskjold, son of
the eminent Norwegian Arctic explore1;
will probably accompany the expedition as
medical officer and scientific searcher.
PRINCELY PERQUISITES
That Accrue to British Ambassadors
When They Are Transferred Some Ob
jection Being Made to the Payment or
Some Pretty Stiff Claims.
I BY CABLE TO THE DISPVTCIT.!
Losdox, March 5. Englishmen areTond
of contrasting the princely salaries paid to
British diplomats with "the beggarly pit
tances" upon which American ministers
have to subsist t foreign courts. .National
pride is likely to be further enhanced
by a discovery made this week by
an inquisitive Kadical member of
Parliament, that when an " Ambass
ador is transferred to another post he
receives a liberal allowance for "outfit,"
This is supposed to cover the Minister's
personal expenses the traveling expenses
ot his family, and the cost of moving his
own private furniture, carriages and horses.
As a matter of fact, some' embassies are
furnished entirely at public cost, and al
most all of thetn partly so, and in uine
cases of ten the outgoing diplomat disposes
of his lurniture, carriages and horses at a
valuation to his successor. The allowance
for outfit is therefore nearly all profit, and
the sum is by no means inconsiderable.
Lord Dufferin, for instance, who has -just
been transferred from Rome to Paris re
ceives 2,000; Sir Clare ."Ford, 1',200 on
goinc to Constantinople; Sir HenryxWolff,
2.000, on transfer to Madrid, 4and Lord
Vivian, 2,500, on proceeding to Kome.
Sir Henry Wolff has been moved three
times within a year, and has probably pock
eted 4,000 or 5,000 after paying'all ex
penses. Certain desenerate Englishmen in the
House of Commons Liberals, of course
who do not belong to the great families
from which the British diplomatic service
is mainly recruited, object to the liberal
scale upon which these' outfit allowances
are drawn, aud actually urge that an am
bassador or minister should send in his
bill like any common person and -receive
only out-of-pocket expenses. The Govern
ment, however, will strennouslv resist this
insidious. attack upon the constitution, and
the money will doubtless be voted next
week.

Rome, March 5. In sneaking to-day of
the appeal of some Catholics in the United
States Irom the decision of the Archbishops
iu reference to the proposed Catholic Con-,
grcss in Chicago during the World's Fair,
Bishop Ireland, of St. Paul, Minn., who is
now in Kome, said: "The whole matter is
a tempest in a teapot. Anybody may send
a letter to Rome on any subject Whether
the communication receives attention, how
ever, is quite another question. Certain
people attain in their owi fancies an im
portance which the outer world refuses to
indorse. The letter sent by Messrs. Dunne,
Pallen, Kiihlmann and "others will not
crc ite the slightest ripple in the stream of
current Roman ecclesiastical thought,
"There are waste baskets in Rome as well
as in the United States. The idea is ab
surd that an appeal by a few '.disgruntled,
self-conceited men azamst.the decisions of
the ATchbishops will be listened to in
Rome. The Catholic Congress, from the
verv name it beare. must be directed bv the
Catholic hierarchv, or else be a congress
of Dunres and the others nji nothing
more. They are free to hold a, congress
of this "kind in our free country,
bnt it in no wiser"could represent the Cath
olic laymen of America. " "'
FEEE TBADEBS SATISFIED
With Sir. Chaplin's Prohibition or Lire
Cattle Importation.
THY CABLE TO TUB PISPATCH.1
LoxDOS', March 5. The predictions in
this correspondence that Mr. Chaplin might
be encouraged to prohibit entirely the im
portation of live cattle have been amply
warranted this week. The 'philanthropists
are urging him to do so in order to put an
end to the cruelties involved in the ocean
cattle trade, and Tory newspapers are pelt
ing him with statistics intended to prove
that the consumer will not be a penny the
worse. Because of last year's supplies only
170,000 tons were imported alive as against
4Sn.olO tons of dead meat imported and
l.ouO.OOO tons of British meat. Total pro
hibition is being advocated in quite unex
pected quarters. The Pall ilall Gazette, for
instance, says: .
As free traders we shall have no complaint
to make if Mi. Chaplin should exclude for
e:sn liv e stock. The consumer is in no way
threatened by the lestrlctlon, which will
simply inciea.se the dead meat trade m pro
poition, while removing tbe great facility
for palming on foi-i-;n meat upon him for
the best tnslisli. Undoubtedly the most
natural and unobjectionable way of import
ing meat is to import it dead and not alive.
The live cattle boat is n survival from the
time when freezing chambers were not in
vented, and a very ugly and unsavory sur

CHAEIIY MOST HATEF17L.
A Pitiful Story That Carries With It Its
Own Moral.
BY CABLE TO TIIE DISPATCH.l
LOSDOX, March 5. A pitiful tale of dis
tress was revealed at a coroner's inquest in
London, yesterday a story showing how
much the poor law system of the English is
hated by many whom it is intended to suc
cor. A dock laborer fell sick and his little 12-Tear-old
sou strove to provide tor him. The
bov earned 6 shillings in a fortnight, and
the two subsisted on this for 14 days, beside
paving rent out of the sum. Then the boy
fell sick, and the man who had held out to
the last crawled to the workhouse and fell
dead upon the doorstep. He Had eaten
nothing at all for two days, and had starved
to death. The poor lad even then refused
to enter the hated workhouse, preferring
his chance in his damp cellar to taking
official charity.
LONDON PROGRESSIVES WIN.

LONDON, March 5. The triennial elec

place to-day. The counting in a few dis
tricts has been postponed till Monday, but
the results already known show a sweeping
Progressive triumph in the proportion of
three to one, which the results still to come
in will not alter.
Lord lloseberry and John Burns, the
labor leader, are elected by large majori
ties. South London has gone solid for the
Procressives. Seventy-seven Progressive
candidates and 17 Moderates are already
known to have been elected. The Duke of
Norfolk (Moderate), Lords Carrington and
Monkswell (Progressives), and the avowed
Socialists, Messrs. Tims, Bruce, Cooper and
Sidney "Webb, have all been returned.

TorEKA, Kax., March a The fail
ure of the Democratic Central Com
mittee to call a State nominating conven
tion at its meeting last eight in Leaven
worth was explained to-day through the
Executive Committee of the People's party.
A proposition for a combination between
Democrats and the People's party is being
considered by tbe leaders, and until some
thing is done neither of the State conven
tions will be called. Judge John Martin,
of this city, Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor in ,1885, and A.W. Harris, of Leaven
worth, a prominent People's party politi
cian, formulated the plan, which meets
with the.lndorsement of the Executive
Committee of the People's party.
John IT. Ives, a Democrat, who went oil
with the People's party is to1 be nominated
for Govornor, and .the remainder of the
State ticket, with the exception of the Asso
ciate Judge of the Supreme Court, who is
to be a Democrat, is to be given to the Peo
ple's party. The vPteople's party is also to
have the Democratic indorsement of the five
Congressional districts now represented by
Clover Simpson, Baker, 'Otis and Davis,
and the Democrats will have the People's
party support In the"f irst and Second dis
tricts.and also the Congressman at Large. The
Democrats, are to support the People's
electoral ticket. In indorsing the People's
electoral ticket the Democrats are evidently
acting under instructions from the National
Democratic Central Committee.
OUTSPOKEN AOAIHSI QUAY.
Armstrong's r,adln; Republican Paper
Comes Oat Boldly for Dalz-I!.
, KlTTAifj-ijfG. March 5. 6xcia", A
genuine sensation was sprung in this county
to-day. The Union Frt; Pretu, acknowledged
the leading Republican paper of the county,
came out in a strong editorial denouncing
.Senator Quay in no undecided terms, and
urging the people to vote for Hon. John
Dalzell at the primaries which will be held
March 26. Dalzell had his card placed in
the paper among the other candidates, and
the whole paper is filled with paragraphs
comparing the two men, all of which are
decidedljr adverse to Senator Quay.
The paper is the organ ot the county
"ring," every member of which is a strong
Quay man. All of these are up in arms,
and they say the paper is making a losing
fight, and it is bad politics for it to take,
such a decided stand against its friends.
Judge Buffington and ex-Judge Keale are
supposed to have influenced the policy of
the paper, as neither one is friendly to the
junior Senator. '

.New York. March 5. The frienda of
Ferdinand Van Zandt, who committed sui
cide March 1 in 'London, but whose death
was not cabled to ihe newspapers on this
side of the Atlantic until yesterday, have
known of his death since the day on which
it occurred. Mr. Van Zandt killed himself
while temporarily insane., He has had great
financial reverses of late. - '
Some six years ago Mr, Van Zandt be-
PnTSBURG
came interested in the Blue Bird Mine at
Butte, Mont. He spent .his fortune in.the
mine, and.' it is said, sank about 13,000,000
or H,000.CQ0 in the venture. The mine did
not turn outfas its owners expected, -and Te
cently.it was sold.for dfcbt. . Mr. Van Zandt
has a wide acquaintance in this, country and
in England. He married the daughter of
Sir John Lubbock, the distinguished En
glish entomologist and statesman, and, came
with her to this countvy. He had been liv
ing at "Butte," liear the mine. His father was
a.first cousin of Governor Van Zandt, who is
one of-the best known men . in Newport
The dead man was also a familiar -figure in
that city. His wife is now in California.
Mr. Van Zandt went to Encland almost im
mediately after his mine was soldi and has
been in London, it is learned,, since 'he went

Milchrist admitted with great reluctance
this morning that Mr. Horton had been in

did not care to "make anv statemenfof the

would injure the Government's case.
"I know verv little. about the facts,'' said
Mr. Milchrist, "and jhe inatter ought not

A Curtailment or Production Must and Will
Come Soon.
Cleveland, March 5. In the resume of
the conditions of the iron market, tbe Iron
Trade Beview says:
The one thing in order Is curtailment.
Theie are signs, too, that the work has
begun. Five valley furnaces will quit w lthin
the week, we aie assured. That all that has
been said these past three montus of tho
desperately unwholesome condition of the
market was foundad on fact, . appears ion
the one hand by the wholesale discbarge of
employes and the shutting down of puddling
mills, and on the other-by the bad tallure-of
a prominent valley iron Arm which, there
can lie little doubt, will be followed "by the
blowing out of more than one stack. The
oie men have not sojd anything of 'late, ana
will not be in a. position, soon to sell, for
there is 90 little demand among the furnace
men for oro that even any concession the
ore men are willing to matco in the matter
of price would be no inducement to con
sumers. The inrnace men aie elmuly swamped,and
nothing can help them until the enormous
overplus of pig iron nqw on hand Is worked
off. In the end .there is likely to be a stop
page perforce of production. Tbe ore sup
plies now on hand must eventually be ex
nausted, and a posslblo season of enforced
idleness mur lead to better results in creat
ing a demand which at this time is princi
pally noticeable by its absence. '
SCUDDEE TO PLEAD INSANITY.
Ha Told an Attorney His Victim Was Dead
the Day Tirl-re the Murder. 1.,
- Chicago, March"5. For another weekat
least the question of Dr. Henry M. Scud
iter's sanity will be undecided, owing to the
protection offered him by the laws. Evi
dence to the effect that he is a victim of the
morphine habit and kindred infirmities is
accumulating. The fact that all efforts are
being turned toward proving that he is in
sane, and that no effort is made to deny that
he committed the murder as charged, must
be considered a virtual admission of his
guilt.
Dr. Scudder had so far planned the crime
that he'made the announcement of his vic
tim's death before it came to pass. From W.
E. Clarke, Jr., "an attorney, it is learned that
Dr. Scudder secured a continuance of a case
against him before Justice Foster by saying
that his 'mother-in-law was dead, though
this was actually the day previous to her
violent death.

day quite suddenly and severely. His icver
was high on Thursday and Fridav. He was
much better this morning, and hopes to be

At n late hour this vening it was stated
that Secretary Blaine's condition was con
siderably improved. He is still confined to
his bed, but it was stated at the house that
the' force of his cold was broken, and that
there was every reason to suppose that he
would be all right in a few days.

The survey committee met yesterday 'and
considered, a number of ordinances for the
vacation and location of streets and estab

present laid out, the survey meets Friend
ship avenne diagonally, and if relocated, on
the new lines will make a continuous street

WILSINSBTBG BUBNING COAL. "
- . - - - -j
The Demand for Welghine Scales Indicates
, t he Wane of Natural Gas.
One effect of the return to coal,' as a result
of the giving out of natural gas, is already
to be .seen in.Wilkinsburg in a direction
that would hardly be thought of. The citi
zens are agitating 'for the re-establishment
of public weigh-scales, so that the coal they
are compelled to .buy can receive the stamp
of official correctness when it is weighed.
Last year Borough Councils ..bought a
scale, but found that it did not earn enough
to-pay for itself, and sold it at a loss. Now
that natural, gas is being so much less used
than formerly, it is believed that the scale
should be kept constantly employed in
weighing coaL At all events.'the citizens
want the opportunity of rnaking the test. 1

Orleans, 'March 5. Contrary to
expectations the grand jury in its final re
port presented to-day did 'not touch upon
the manner in'wtjich Frederick C Fitz
simmonj. obtained the knife with which'he
committed suicide. A thorough investiga
tion was had, but it appears that, the grapd
inquest was-unable to fix the responsibility.
, In speaking ot a parallel, case the rep'drt
says the system ot searching prisoners at

cells is woefully defective and recommends
that another and more effective system be
adopted. .

New Ha vex, March 5. The first case on"
record.in this, country where the Govern
ment has brought' action against parties for
counterfeiting money for the purpose of de
frauding a"nickel-in-the-slot machine had a
hearing in" this city this afternoon before
United States Commissioner "Wright- The
.accused was George S. Grumman, a wealthy
saloon keeper of Norwalk. He was arrested
last Tuesday. hy.Mar.hal Strong on a war
raqt charging him-with counterfeiting 5-cent
nickels' and using them to defsaud 'the Edi
60nPHon6graph ,Coni"pany.
' The 'most important witness for the Gov
ernment was -Thomas D. Callaghan, of the
Unfted States 'Signal Service. He said
Grumman 'told ' him that he had worked
candy, weighing J and cigarette machines
with impunity with the lead coins. He also
rcjatedjiow-h'e and other accused made the
coins. , When Grumman saw the witness
take the stand and heard him give his occu
patipn'h'e' almost"succumbed with fright.
Charles L."Mafshall, of Newark, N. J., who
controls-the-machine, exhibited a collection
that had been taken from the machine in
Grumman'R place.'.which contained 460 lead
nickels.. 'The -coins were extremely poor
productions and would not be liable to de
ceive anyone After listening to the argu
ments,' Commissioner Wright bound the ac
cused over to the United States Circuit

A LOOPHOLE FOR THE TRUST.
It Is-Alleged the -Grand Jury IVhlch In-
' dieted the Officials Is Illegal.
B0STO','March.6. It is understood that
a sensational attack will be made in the
Eeder'al.Court Monday in the matter of the
indietments against the Whisky Trust, and
that an attempt will be made to show that
the grand jury now in session is an illegal
bddy;'an'd 'all its w ork goes' for nothing.
The United States statute provides that in the
drawing of jurors ihe practice shall conform
as nearly as possible to that provided by
the statutes of the State in'whfch the jurors
are' to be drawn ' and serve. The State
statutes provide that jurors shall be drawn
at meetings of the body authorized to draw
jurors not more than 21and not less than 7
days before such juror is to serve. It is
alleged that in the case of several of the
present .jurors they were drawn in some
cases long before they were to serve, and in
the cases of others only a day or two.
"'-Should' the facts 'sustain the allegations
the entire' work of the grand jury would
have to be gone over again, including, of
course, all the laborious examination of
witnesses and books in the Maverick Bank
case.
