Jfort Abotlt the Rioting Among the Unein plojedat Danzig. A QDiER COLONY OP Kit TAX WlKKLES "Vienna, March 8. The indiscriminate distribution of iree bread in that city is baring the efiect of making workmen lazy. Some large factories are now unable to engage a sufficient number of laborers to carry on operations. In man; cases it has been found that persons receiving free btead have afterward bartered it for gin. Consequently the police of this city have issued orders forbiddihgthe further distribu tion of free bread here to persons who are out of employment and are in needy circum stances. ' A dispatch, from Leipsic states that the discontent among the large number of un employed workmen in that city is sprtad ing. There is no doubt that the fight be tween the moderate and extreme Socialists has much to do with with the personal troubles. The young party of Socialists are outspoken in their support of demonstra tions, while the moderates deprecate any attempt at violence. Incendiary Speeches to a Slob. On Sunday last several hundred of the workingmeu attempted to hold meetings, at which some of the speakers denounced the Government and called upon the working men to assert their manhood and force the authorities to do something to relieve their distress. The riff-raff of the city was, of course, present, and no little disorder was manifested, but the police found no diffi culty in breaking up the meetings, and quiet was soon restored. The Socialist agitators continued their arguments whenever the occasion offered, in beer shops and other places where the unemployed congregated, and finallyic was determined to attempt to hold a meeting to day in the market place. Consequently a large nnmber of men out of work gathered at the place designated, many of them at tending simply because they desired to defy the authorities. Several speeches had been made, when a large force of mounted police appeared and ordered tne crowd to disperse, .there was some little threat of resistance, and a few of the leaders called on the men not to be driven by the hirelings of the Emperor, but the Crowd manifested no great desire to bring about a collision, and the police had little trouble In clearing the market place. A Colony of Kip Tan Winkles. A special correspondent, who is visiting the famine stricken portions of Bussia, sends the following letter from Saratoff, de scriptive of the German colonists on the Volga: The German colonists on the Volga num ber about 300,000. Imagine a body of men taken out of the eighteenth century, care fully preserved and kept apart from the in fluences of modern progress, latter day cus toms and ideas, and you have the German colonist of the Volga. The condition of the colonists Is really worse than that of the Russian peasants in other districts, inasmuch as the former have no natural protector or guardians. The estate owners, to whom the Russian peasants formerly belonged, still take a sort of patri archal interest in them and help them in their distress; but the German colonists hare no one to whom they can look except a few wealthy employers of labor. The colonists have a feeling that they are being left alone to die. No hand is stretched out to save them. Even the Government aid, scanty enough in all consciousness, has been meted out more grudgingly and in smaller quantities to them than to-others. The Red Cross Society has passed them bv altogether. This is how it comes about that while the inhabitants of the Russian vil lages in Saratoff are fed, the German colo nists re starving.

STORY OF THE WOMAS'S HBAETLB88SESS AFTER THE $1,000 REWARD. ATJSTBO-HTJHGABY FOE GOLD. Silver to Continue in Use bnt Not to Be a Currency Standard. View, March 8. Dr. EL Steinbach, Austrian Minister of Finance, in welcoming the'' members of the Commission on Cur rency Reform, said that, besides the ques tion of the resumption of specie payments, the commission was to consider Other impor tant and difficult currency question that have arisen in consequence of the far-reaching change in the firm ratio of value which had so long existed between gold and silver. The change had had a most sweeping efiect upon the Autro-Uungarian ratio of values. Herr Bauer, director of the Vienna Banking Association, and Herr Benedict, editor of the Ken Freie Pretltt, members of the Cur rency Reform Commission, spoke in favor of a gold standard with a temporary continu ance of silver currency to the extent of 100, 000 florins. In Pesth to-day the Hungarian commis sion ol zl currency experts met Finance Minister "Wekerle and concurred in the adoption of a gold standard. While It was admitted that silver ought to be accorded an important place in the new system, there was a difference of opinion as to how far that metal should he employed, the amount of circulation suggested varying from 120, 000,000 to 150,000,000 florins. The New Orleans Officers Interested In the Fltzsimmons Case Files a Claim With the County Commissioners The Ground Given for the Action. Attorney Marron has received a claim from the Kew Orleans police officers who arrested Fltzsimmons for the 11,000 reward offered by the Allegheny County Commis sioners. The claim is made by Captain John Journee and Detective de Bailee. In a long affidavit they recite the circum stances leading to the capture of Fitzsim mons and the manner in which the arrest was made. The story of the capture as re lated by them under oath is substantially the same as published in Til DISPATCH at the time. Attorney Marron gave the Commissioners notice of the claim yesterday. The ofler of a reward is made for the arrest and reten tion of Fltzsimmons. Sir. Marron thinks there will he no objection io giving the re ward to the New Orleans authorities. The Only difficulty in the way that he sees is the fact that the law providing that commis sioners can offer a reward requires the con viction of the prisoner before the money can be paid. The law, he thinks, is de fective in this particular. Detective Murphy will also file a claim for the reward. "Detective Finney did all tne worK leading to the capture of intzsim mons and fhe 3Sew Orleans officers did noth ing but their duty inassistingin thearrest," he said vesterday. "I spent over $1,500 in finding Fitzsimmons, and if anyone is to get a reward, I should have it. In case I get the reward, I expect to divide with certain If aw Orleans officers who helped us, but Journee and Finney will hot be in- ciuaea. fSFECIAL TELIGRAK TO THE 0ISPATCH.1 San FbancIsco, March a Dr. North fleet, surgeon-of the Monocaoy, who knew the Hetheriflgtons well, explains the singu lar conduct of the Lieutenant's wife by the assertion that the woman was vain, fond of admiration and had no common sense. He said: "On the voyage from San Francisco to China she caused much gossip by her flirta tions, and when she. reached Yokohama she at once set tongues wagging by her indis creet conduct She tras easily the prettiest woman in the foreign Colony at Yokohama, but those who knew her best said she had no heart and flirted merely for amusement, and the seqttel proved that thev were correct "From the first day of her stay in the Grand Hotel she seemed to lay herself out to fascinate Yokohama. She would glance about the different tables at dinner time, ogling the men and smiling with a self consciousness that amused most of the men whom she made her target At dinners and balls she would flirt desperately, and her light shrill laughter could be heard in the piazzas and contervatdries at almost all hours.

The woman's silliness was plainly exempli fied by her conduct after the tragedy.

On the evening of this day, Mrs: Hetherington went to the wife of Admiral Belknap, and said: 'Mrs. Belknap, what shall I do about this dinner? You know the Judge (she always called her hus band by this title) and I have been invited to the Russian Consul's, and, of Course, he can't go because he's in prison, but I don't see" how I can get oht of going myself.

WABSER DEFBNDB 8ILVEB. Tho General Claims the Yankees Were Hoodwinked by Old World Financiers. Ex-Congressman A. J. Warner, of Mari etta, went to Washington last evening on private business. The General becomes more confirmed in his free silver views every day he lives. He thinks Hill and Cleveland will be wiped off the Democratic Presidental slate, and that Gorman wiil be substituted. He is convinced that the free silver bill Will pass both branches of Con gress, and that Harrison will not be re elected President unless he signs it The General then launched into a defense of silver. He claimed that bi-metallism would drive awav the present depression in trade. "We are doing business on the down grade," he said. "Land is decreasing in value yearly, and why? Simply because gold is becoming dearer. The standard of measure is increasing, while the Value Of property is decreasing. The demonetiza tion of silver in 1873 was a great scheme of a few financierstof the Old World to plunder the United States. I regard it as the most outrageous act of piracy ever perpetrated on our people. John Sherman muBt confess that he was either ignorant on the subject or he is a knave: The amount of gold in the'WbrW is con stantly decreasing, and what is the result? Gold as a standard increases in value. Sil ver is below par ndw, but if 'it were pnt on an equality with gold the values of the two metals would be the same. Gold would not gj-ow at the expense of silver, as Congress man -Harter and others claim. I have little faith in Mr. Harfer. He wants the national banks to issue money on the debts of muni cipalities, etc, as security. Any sensible man knows that debts are'the most unstable foundation on which to build.
