I All of Her Foreign Ene- mies Combined, LOEWE'S LETTER SHOWS IT To the Full Satisfaction of the Anti Senritics, at Any Bate.

Bzelik-, Dec. 18. CopyrigJiL' Fortune is agalniiihting the battle of the Hebrew baiters. The inmetus given to the anti Semitic movement by Ahltrardt's trial and election to the Reichstag, the vote of im munity passed by the House, and the in temperate action of the Conservative con ference has been redoubled by the publica tion of the Loewe-Boulanger affair. "When Herr Loewe's letter, as published in the Paris Figaro, was first telegraphed to this city, it was received on all sides with incredulity. Even the extreme Hebrew baiters were inclined to doubt its accuracy. When, however, Loewe acknowledged in print the authenticity of the letter, even moderate newspapers and politicians were swept into the current of anti-Semitic de nunciation. Not an armv of Stoeckers, nor genera tions of Ablwardts.nor all the Kreuzzeitungt published since the Franco-Prussian War could have aroused such widespread and profound indignation as the wretched eva sion with which Loewe tried to excuse his ofier to help arm France when she was apparently on the verge of war with Ger many. Handiwork of Astnte Politicians. The anti-Semitic leaders are astute poli ticians, and they are preparing to play the Figaro letter as a trump card. Already .they have solicited contributions of money that they may be enabled to buy the orig inal. So much money has been received :from wealthy Conservatives already that yesterday negotiations were opened with the Figaro, and probably the end of this week will see the letter in Berlin. A fac simile will then be published far and wide -inJhe anti-Semitic sheets throughout the Impire. Placards with the -iac similes of the original and Loewe's discreditable re reply will be struck by the thousands and posted where voters too poor to buy news papers may read them. The committee in charge ofthe anti Semitic raid professes to have letters con demning Loewe from some of the first statesmen of Germany, and say that these, too, will be reproduced, to show the people what the foremost men of the Empire think of the gunmaker and his action. Loewe's Hardest Blow to Uimiolt Here in Berlin, Loewe has injured him self more br his attempted explanation of the Figaro letter than by the original letter itself. Even anions the most moderate public men and party leaders there is but one opinion, and it is that Loewe's state ment showed him to be ignorant of the first principles of patriotism. In editorial rooms throughout the Empire there is practical unanimity in the same opinion. Three or four Berlin newspapers, backed by Hebrew capital and held to a strictly radical policy by the' business interests of their stockholders, have expressed the conviction that patriotism ends where business begins, and that Loewe was justifiable in his action. Outside of this coterie, however, Clerical, Conservative, Free Conservative and National Liberal editors have only words of bitter denunciation for the cosmopolitan gunmaker. The Coelnisehe Zeitung voiced the feelings of the most temperate citizens' yesterday, in a long leader which said: A Sample of tHo Xewspaper Comment At the time when tho letter was written by Herr Loewo to Boulanser ttie Loea o Com pany was occupied exclusively -with the manufacture of machinery. Xevertheless, uespitc Hetr Loewe's explanations, we are compelled to regard with deep regret tho outrage of national feoltng brought to light by the offer contained in tlie letter. The most dnnserous weapon wielded by antl Semltfc agitators in tliolr conflict -n-itii Judaism Is the assertion that Judaism does not aspire to amalgamation witli the people of German j and that It continues to pursue be introduced br the anti-Semltlcs In the Reichstag, to the e&ect that no manufact urer ot war materials in Germany be allowed to supply the same to anti-foreign powers. Such a measure will overshoot the mark, as it would inflict an immense loss of trade on Krupp and other makers of big guns or small arms. The bill will be undoubtedly defeated. It will, however, afford the anti Semitic deputies a rare opportunity to keep the Loewe matter before the country, ard thus serve the purposes of the Conservative anti-Semltics. The breach in the Conservative party has been widened beyond the hope of repair by the anti-Semitic resolutions of the party conference. The independent Conserva tives have cut loose from the old organiza tion, and with 21 deputies under the leader ship of Freiherr Von Helldorf, hare come out iormailv as a party which will go its ow n way with the same claims to recog nition as the Clericals or National Liberals. The principal declarations of the new party s platform favor religious education in the public schools and opposition to social Democratic doctrine, both in and out of Parliament. Bismarck's Garrulity Denounced. Prince Bismarck's garrulity in the sod etv of French newspaper correspondents has elicited some severe newspaper com; nients from the German press. The National Zeitung finds especially reprehensible his statement that Germany might beat relin quish to France all Alrio.i between Tunis and the Kongo. Such a course, says the Xational, wonld merely embitter the rela tions between France and Italy, tothe lat ter's disadvantage, without bringing any benefit to Germany. The Hamburger Nach- nchten, lor Prince Uisniarcfc, ridicules mis view of the situation, and asks why Ger many should consider it her dnty to im prove the relations between France and Italv. It would be clearly to Germany's advantage, the inspired editor adds, to give France plenty to do in Africa, and thus probably divert her thoughts from Alsace and Lorraine. It would not matter a but ton's worth whether France and Italy were estranged or not, in consequence of such a course, for Germany was under no obliga tion to help Italy in case of trouble in Africa. On the other hand, an Ahglo Afriran understanding would be of great advantage to Germany. Cutting Cynicism ol the Iron Prince. The Government isespecialiy irritated by the cynicism with which Bismarck refers to Germany's readiness to abandon Italy to her fate in a war with France over an African question. At the present time, especially, when the Triple Alliance is attacked daily by Italians who were formerly its lriends, Bismarck's words, the Government fears, will have an exceptionally unlortunate in fluence. Hen of the ex-Chancellor's immediate en tourage believe, as usual, that he opened his mouth only to tell the Foreign Office val uable diplomatic truths. Thev say that sooner or later France will make a deal with Italy by giving her a strong foothold in Africa,' possibly Tunis. French statesmen are said to believe that within a generation Italy will be a repub lic, in sympathy with the Church of Borne, and a natural ally of France and Bussia. Bismarck's utterances are supposed to show that he shares this view. Switzerland's course in resisting France's bullying in the commercial negotiations be tween the two countries is supposed to be supplied from the German Foreign Office. The prospect is that a tariff war will begin with the new year, as Swiss pride is thor oughly aroused against the action of the French Government Such a war would be a boon to German and Italian trade. A Bis Steam sliip Probablv lost. All hope of the Bremen steamship Peiho, long overdue, has been abandoned. She carried a full crew and cargo, also the captain's wife, who was taking a wedding trip around the world. The Peiho sailed from a Brazilian port, and was last spoken in the neighborhood of a large iceberg. The most of her crew were residents of Bremen. A dispatch from Bremen says that the negotiations between the North German Lloyd and the owners of the steamship Lake Huron are very near an agreement as to the salvage for the rescue of the steam ship Spree. The pictures selected by the Duesseldorf jurv for the German department of the Chicago Fair are on exhibition for a few davs in the Duesseldorf Art HalL '' The latest emigration reports contain some disagreeable surprises for the Ham burg steamship people. In November 6.724 emigrants sailed from Bremen against 2,293 from Hamburg. Jn the last 11 months 119, 670 have sailed from Bremen and 1U5,838 have sailed from Hamburg. In view of the reappearance of cholera in Hamburg the advantage held by the Bremen people is likely to increase still more rapidly, in case the new immigration regulations of the United States Ho not cut off the steerage business entirelv. Brewers in Southern and Western Ger many are holding meetings to protest against the increase of the beer tax by some 58,000,000 to hely pay the extra expense contemplated by the military bill. A so ciety has been formed to protect the brew ing interests in the south and west of the Empire.

Evervhody not desirous of seeing the German people in cited to relieious and race hatred must bo filled with the deepest sorrow when repre sentatives of Judaism in press, pailiameut and commerco nro strengthened by such UcedH as this through tbo influence of lanatics. The offer or tho Loewos was made at a time when a great war panic w as tpieadins through tne civilized world. In fans ap peared the book "Avaut la Baialile." De roulede was making his creat tour of agita tion In Russia and other countries. Sou lancer stood at the head of tho French war party. The Lobel rifle may be said to dato back to 18S6, bat the distribution among the troops wa not finished until 13SS. Tho French Government folt the necessity of hastening the manufacture "as rapidly as possible. This manufacture required a ma chine of extraordinary exactitude and cost liness. Very few factories were cnpahlo of risking a contract in such a costly business, and, tberofoie, tho temptation to Herr Loewe to mnk his offer was very gieat. Therein lay all the mote reason, however, that he should resist the temptation. Not Used to Inning Their Enemies. Therepiescntatives of Judaism ought to take more trouble than the Germans them scUes to avoid everything calculated to arouse popular suspicion as to the sterling quality ot their patriotism. So far as we are aware, no German estaDhshment sup plies war materials to France. The Sciiielian yards supply torpedo boats and Gruson sup pliesibrmed towers to Kussia, and In ordin aryttmes we have nothing to say against buch proceeding. The case of Loewo, how ever, is different. In Tiew of our political feeling toward France, and especially In view or tuo criucHi condition or our inter national relations at the time or the ar lair. It is common among some anti-scptennnte fanatics still alivo to believe honestlj that the historical buying or wood and building orbariaoks near our border, the Melinite affulr, the Lebel rifle scare, the Boulanger and Deroulede matters, were all timply in Tentlons of Trlnce Bismarck, who punned them in order that he might pass the sop teunate by means or the wai alarms thus created. As a matter or fact, then, as often belore in Ills eventful lite. Prince Bismarck used for the good of tho Fatherland and his ownpatiiotic purposes the oil cumstances of the henr. At all events, Herr Loo wo would have been not only wiser but also much more loyal had he resisted the tempta tion to Increase his business by serving the French purposes or revenge. The matter has .-done Ahlwnrdt & Co. an inestimable service. The words "Lebel" and "Loewe" yeill', be the war cries or tho uutl-Semltic agitator for .years to come. proposed Law to Coi cr Suck Cases. The Krevzzeiiung thinks that the Figaro revelations justify the Hebrew-baiting declarations of the'Conservative conference, and gives currency to the report of a bill to De Lesscps and Ills Colleagues ftefnsed Release on Ball. Pakis, Dec. 18. The report was circu lated last evening that Senator Jules Gui chard would be made President of the Suez Canal Company in the place of Charles de Lesscps, now in Mazas prison awaiting trial for complicity in the, Panama Canal frauds. Application was made to Magistrate Frannueville to-day to release De Lesseps, Sans Leroy and Fontane on ball. Respon sible bondsmen were ready to sign the papers, but the magistrate retused even to discuss the possibility of such a release. He added that nobody would be allowed to s ee the prisoners until after the examina tion of the documents seized in their offices. The Jour understands that to-morrow the Chamber will be asked to authorize the prosecution of several deputies. Among 12 persons to whom such an authorization would apply, the Jour says, are three Sena tors and three deputies who belonged to the guarantee syndicate. The examining magistrate is about to summon Jules Delahaye to substantiate the charge made by him before the Chamber and the ParliamentarytCommittee of In quiry. This examination is likely to cause disastrous results in the Chamber, as M. Delahaye still maintains the truth of his accusation that 150 Deputies and Senators were bought with 3,000,000 francs, when the lotterv bonds bill was under considera tion. The decisive vote in the committee on the lottery bonds bill, he says, was bought for 200,000 francs. He also pro fesses to have a mine of exact information as to the purchase of editor, one of. them a foreigner, w hose price was 500,000 francs. The weakness of the case so lar lias been that he has refused to give the names of the bribe-takers, aud when pressed for them has taken relnge in the device of referring his questioners to the Cabinet Ministers, who, he said, had the complete list. M. Andrieux. formerly Prefect of Police, has challenged Deputy Arene to a duel, which will be fought to-morrow. Tne cause is a bitter article against the ex-Prefect which M. Arene wrote for the Libre-J'ardle. It transpires that,despfte the fact that he was confined to his bed, de Lesseps was summoned to appear before the examining magistrate. He asked that the cross of the Legion of Honor be placed on his breast, and when this had been done he rose to have the attendants dress him. Almost immediately he sank back on the bed and became delirious. Since then he ,bos thought that the serving of the summons was only a dream. He is very feeble, both mentally and physically. Tnere is a strong'sentiment among cer tain financiers, headed by Albert Christo phlc, Governor of the Credit Foncier, that me uorernment suouia mine another at-i tempt to float the canal enterprise.

The indications point more and more to an intention on the part of Democratic leaders here to run the Federal and' State "machines" on separate lines. The Crisp incident at 4he Reform Club dinner is one evidence that Cleve land's kitchen Cabinet is to have full sway at the "White House, but beyond that is the perfectly plain purpose on Cleveland's part neither to invite nor accept suggest ions from the Hill-Tammany machine. He believes he can get along without their aid. They feel confident, on the other hand, that they can get along without him. Not one of the Tammany men has been near Cleveland since the election. Should anyone look up the lists of callers upon the President-elect he will find that thev are all of one type the Mugwump while the "boys" gather about Hill, Croker and Murphy. Even now Charles B. DeFreest, the clerk of the Assembly and representative of Senator-to-be "Ed" Murphy, is in Washington with David B. Hill mapping out legislation for the Democratic majority at Albany and putting in shape several measures designed to perpetuate Democratic control of the offices in this city. A Clash Certain Early In March. How long these two Democratic "ma chines" ean keep on parallel lines is a question. They are maintained there now because one of them is not in operation, but a clash is as certain to follow Cleve land's inauguration as night is to follow day. Tammany is entrenching itself in power here in preparation for the fizht, and before Cleveland gets in the White House the Legislature will have passed laws giving Mavor-elect Gilroy absolute control of the city departments, with no appeal from his decision and no necessity for "changes" in order to dismiss commis sioners or lesser officials. The police force, too, is to be "reorganized," or, in other words, made entirely Tammany. Croker's hand is doing this work here, "but up the State Hill is the directing force and Gov ernor Flower carries out his plans. The canals are1 their chief source ot power, for millions are annually expended on them. Ed Murphy's brother-in-law is in control there. Tammanylzlng New Tork. What is to be done by the Legislature in the way of Tammanyizing .New York City government will be carried out also in other cities of the State. Hill's strength is in the cities. That is where the Democratic vote is. Lieutenant Governor Sheehan controls Buffalo, Ed Murphy controls Troy, Boss McLaughlin controls Brooklyn, the Arnot ring is supreme among Elmira Dem ocrats, and so throughout the State a Hill henchman is the ruling power in the cities. Hill's plan is to have enacted, under the guise of "home rule," laws that will give the Democratic heads of these city govern ments undisputed sway over the "patron age," and where possible over the elec tion machinery as well. The change made by the Legislature last winter in the Board of Election Inspectors is a sample oi wnat is to De done elsewhere. The old law gave both parties equal repre sentation on the board and the Police Com missioners had to accept as election in spectors the names handed to them by the two organizations. Last winter Croker had this changed so that the board consists now of only three members, and the Police Com missioners 'select their owjf men. Two of them at least were out and out Tammany ites at the last election and the third supposedly a Republican. But it was two to one at best With these unscrupulously partisan schemes spread wherever the "machine" is in power, and denied to cities not in their control, the Hill followers feel that they can hold their own against the Federal pat ronage to be dispensed by Cleveland. They rather hope, in lact, that he will carry out the civil service ideas of which his idolators proclaim he is possessed. Their enforce ment ould mean semt rations for the Cleveland rank .and file, and Democrats won't stick together long on a slender diet. Machine Democrats Exasperated. Cleveland's actions are exasperating to a good many Democrats who really be lieve in him and not in the machine. His letter to officeseekers before he went duck shooting was regarded by them as a piece of selfishness on the part of a third term Fresidental candidate, and one who bad been Governor, Mayor, District Attor ney and Sheriff. Since his return Cleve land has acted as he wrote. He doesn't want anyone to call nt his honse except upon invitation, and has established himself at his downtown office.with regular office hours, for those whom he sees because he has to. Word has gone out that one's chances for a long friendly reception will be imperiled by a call at the house, and even at the Mills building, where the President-elect has his "law" office, one is admonished to approach the throne with becoming modesty and humility. Several well-known Democrats entitled to his con fidence, to some extent at least, have found their interview abruptlv cut short when they touched on Cabinet suggestions. Cleveland gives the impression that he knows it all, and wants no advice as to the makeup of his circle of Cabinet counsellors. Hence some surprises are looked for when the names are all announced. CLEVELAND FREE TO ACT. He Can Direct the Action of Monetary Dele gatesAllison Says the Incoming Ad ministration Should Dave Time to Con sider the Questions Before the Confer ence. Brussels, Dec. 18. After N, DI Kenzi'g motion had been proposed at the Monetary Conference yesterday Senator Allison made a short speeoh in behalf of the United States delegation. He laid emphasis upon the fact that throughout the debate nobody had suggested that either of the money metals be discarded. During the adjourn ment, he said, the delegates would have time to study the Rothschild and other pro posals that had been submitted. Continu ing, he said: "Although the conference has been of brief duration, the discussions that have taken place have been ot great value, and we think it wise to resume the delib erations after a recess. Any agreement at which the conference might arrive wonld probably require large concessions on our part It is, therefore, natural that the Democratic administration nhich is about to come into office in the United States, and upon which the responsibility for such action would fall, should hare an oppor tunity to direct the course of the United States delegates. It would consequently be advantageous to the United States, it theconferencc should adjourn long enough to enable the new Government to consider what shall be done." Mr. Bertram Currie, of the British dele gation, objected to the reassembling of the conference, ou the ground that as three previous monetary conferences had failed, there was little prospect of the present one being a success. Sir C. Rivers Wilson, of the British delegation, concurred in the. opinion of Mr. Currie. He said Great Britain would reserve complete liberty of action. Sir William Houldsworth, also of the British delegation, said that he did not agree with Sir C Rivers Wilson in the opinion that only one definite plan should be discussed. On the contrary, he thought that the conference ought to discuss all plans that had already been submitted. General BIchard Strachey, of the Indian delegation, formally announced that during the recess of the conference the Indian Government would reserve to itself absolute freedom of action. Senator Allison said that it was under stood that the governments of all the na tions concerned, including the United States, should reserve to themselves abso lute independence In their respective mon etary policies during the recess ot the con ference; that nobody was bound to any thing, and that they all might employ the time in the interval as they thought proper. M. Di Benzi's proposal was then adopted and the conference adjourned. HER BROTHER'S SLAYER. A West Virginia Woman Leaves Husband anil Children for Him. PARKEnsnrjEO, W.

FAIBMONJ1, W, Va,, Dec. 18. Special ' Stories circulated here that Dr. Harry Harr had been doing business with body snatohers were reinforced by a terrible stench in the building where his office is located, until, for a week past, during his temporary absense, the town has become fairly crazed on the subject Last Saturday the smell became unbear able, and as the doctor had returned there was an emphatic popular demand for an in vestigation, in spite of his earnest protests that he had no dead folks on the premises. A delegation ot citizens were not to be stood ofl, and the floor of his office was torn up. A wheelbarrow load of dead Norway rats, 71 by actual count, were taken from the spaces between the floors. Now the townspeople arc worrying about what killed so many rats and why tbey all died in one building. FOR PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS. A FRIGHTFUL WRECK. Eight Men Killed and Five Injured on the . Great- Northern. Alexandria, Minn., Dee. 18. A frightful accident occurred on the Great Northern Bailroad this morning at Nelson station, five miles eat of here, in which eight men were killed and five were seri ously injured.

HOUSER'S CONFESSED CRIME. A Prominent Wheeling PostofflceiEmploye Arrested for Stealing. WnEEMNG, West Va., Dec. 18. Special There was a decided sensation stirred up here to-day, by the reports that a postofnee employe was short in his ac counts, or rather that he had been defraud ing the Government, and to-night the mat ter came to a climax in the arrest of Harry Honser, Chief of the Carriers, on a United States Court 'warrant, charging him with stealing stamps and mail matter. He was also arrested on State warrants issued on information charging grand larceny. Houser is Secretary of the B. P. O. of Elks, a prominent K. of P. man, and was a candidate for mayor in the Bepublicau primaries held here yesterday. He was well sustained too, although defeated. He sometimes served the most important busi ness route of the city as mail carrier, and to accommodate the merchants used to sell them stamps. After his arrest to-night he admitted to TnE Dispatch correspondent that he had pnrloined stamps worth 51,008, but he denies strenuously that he stole mail matter. The Government officers on the case, however, insist that the proof against him is so strong that there is no question about his guilt They allege, also, that he took advantage of his position to stent cigars, shoes, pens, handkerchiefs, and in fact any and all' kinds of plunder that he could corner. His house has just been searched and it resembled a notion store with a holiday stock on hand. Houser did not denv his guilt, but says he can't tell why he did it He has been released under bonds for a h earing. Hernandez Won't Die So Soon. City op Mexico, Dec. 18.
