VIGOROUS ATTITUDES SUSTAINED. In the Cattle Controversy With France and the Arrest of Mr. Stern In Germany Both Premiers Oresham and Olney Acted Promptly and Boldly. Washington, May 0. Nowhero in tho whole of tho correspondence whioh tho United States had during tho last year with tuo countries of Europo, which cor respondence is Just now bocomlng publlo property through advance sheets of tho umteu states red book, Is thero oxhlblted a inoro vigorous Insistence upon the rights oi Americans than in the course of the negotiations with Franco rosnoctlnff the ox elusion by the government of tbatoountry or American cattle. Tho president him self dictated a small but most Important portion of the correspondence In Us earlier stages, and tho concluding chapters, con. trlbutad by Secretary Olnoy, sweep away like cobwobs the specious explanations put forward to justify the exclusion, and mako It plain that retaliation may be oxpected if tho unjust restrictions aro not abated or justified. . As far back-as March of last year, Just after the fact that tho exclusion ordor had been Issued wns mado known to tho stnto dopnrtmont through Mr. Vlonaud, our charge at Paris, Secretary Grosham cabled that olucer that ho had failed to state tho reasons for its issuo: that tho socrotary of agriculture had assorted our cattlo wero ontlrely free from disease, and that "in view of these statements tho presldont di rects that you inform tho French govern ment that tho United States regard this prohibition as a needlos3 and unfriendly interference with an important branch of legitimate trado.nnd that you remonstrato against its onforcomont." Tho charge was apparently dismayed at tho strength of tho mossage, and sought ta delay its dollvcry until an opportunity could bo had to consldor the propriety o modifying it, on account of other factors entoriiig Into the negotiations, but an other cable message from Secretary Grcsham three days later left him no ro course, nnd whou ho did submit it, oven tho French minister of foreign affairs, who happened to be then as now In olllce, ad mltted "that tho protest was a little fiery.' Finally Secretary Olney summod up tho position of his government in a letter datod Oct. 12 last, winding up by nn in timation that If tho French government persisted in regarding It as nocessary for the protection ot tnelr cattlo to oxcludo tho herds from tho United States tho same process of reasoning would make It equally essential to protoctlon on cattlo of tho United States that French cattle, es pecially tho Norman breed, which Is now attracting so much attention hero, should be excluded from tho United States. From tho correspondence, which closes soon after this passage, it appears that tho secretary was proventod from making good this Implied threat only owing to representations that tho new French, mln lstry would bo more favorable to tho Unl ted btates. Tho ohango of ministry in Franco brought about a more favorable dlsposl tion on tho part of tho French govorn ment, and tho prohibition was in u fair way to be removed when the printed cor respondence closed on Nov. 14, 18U3. Somo very highly splritod corroipon denco passed last summor between Secre tary Olnoy and tho Gorman ambassador at Washington, Baron Thiolman, grow ing out of the harsh treatment nccorded to a Now York business man, ijouls btorn by tho Bavarian authorities, and whllo the case wa3 not of Itself groat importance It socmod for a time to put a strain bo twoen relations all around. As was shown at tho time, Mr. Storn then nt Klssengen, resented what ho ro- carded as Insolonco exhibited by a potty official of the Klssengen baths, and was arrested therofor, sentenced to two wooks' Imnrlsonmont and fined 600 marks. The case terminated by tho forfeiture of oxcos slvo ball of 80.000 marks oxactod of Mr, Storn by tho Bavarian governmont and $ho refusal of tho former to return to Uor- many and sorvo sontonco. ' From tho beginning tho stnto depart ment exortod Itself with groat vigor, first to Insure Justice for Mr. Stern, nnd af tor the passago of sontence tosocure clemency for him. In tho courso of tho lattor at tempt Secretary Olney addressed a noto to Baron Thiolman, tho Germnn ambassador here, In which he said thnt to him the pro ceedings against Stum scorned to havo been gratuitous nud undoservodly onorous from tho beginning, from tho imposition of the excessive bull to tho llnul sontonco, which added to a lino tho humiliation of porsonal imprisonment. From tho lattor Stern should bo relieved, and In no possi ble view of ills caso was any such chastise mout justified. Secretary Olnoy reminded the ambassador that onslruugomonts of groat nations had In the past grown up from equally small beginnings. Probably uoono was more surprised than Secretary Olnoy at tho reception accorded his note, which was shown by the follow ing noto from the ambassador: "In reply to tho viows contained lu your noto l Hasten to say that i reject as en tirely unjustified your excellency's crltl- ilsm of the sentence against Storn dollv rod by the court nt Klsslngon. So far as tho United State? government desires to approach tho governmont of his majesty, tho Gorman einporor, In this matter, touch ing one of its oitlzens, It must bo left to to mako suchapproacb through the United States ambassador ut Berlin. But tho secretary's answer was to the point, for taking up the noto In dotall be disposed of the first point by maintaining that all euort uy tuo country of u sufferer lor his ronci is Dotn logmmnto ami ouug- atory. TIio position that a Judicial son tonco roudorod lu ono country "however absurd and Inlnultous. mar not, with view to tho necessary relief from It, bo criticized and characterized as It doservos by the government of tho country whose BBOject or citizen is uneccua, cannot no reasonably usiumcu by any civilized state." The correspondence closed In this per sonal fcaturo with n brlof noto from tho Germnn ambassador formally stating that the Imperial government rocoivca com plaints and suggestions from friendly gov ernments only when thoy aro prosontcd by tho diplomatic! ropresontnttves of such gov- eminent accredited to It. It does this as a matter of prlnclplo, and In nccordanco with a practlco which generally prevails. Tho Weather. For oastorn Pennsylvania, Now Jorsey end Delaware! Fair; cooler; northerly Winds.
