Mr. Chambers appears to have 1 ( been engaged In promoting much agitation / In favor of the Malletoa party. If this Is confirmed wo shall ask for an. explanation , efl such conduct Is In direct contiM.ven-.lon ot the Berlin treaty , "which expressly provides ifhot the supreme judge shall not meddle with national elections , but shall remain Btrlctly neutral on such occasions. It Bccms , however , that Mr Clumbers joined In ttie Intrigues of the English missionaries nvho feared that Protestant Interests would suffer by the ascension of the Roc.-nn V Catholic Mataafa.

" The correspondent of the Associated Press Bpoko to United States Ambassador Whits on the ) subject and Ii" said the above state ment tallied with his own Information.

"When I stood on the Mount of Olives I renewed the oath taken to the colors not to leme a stone unturned to assure the wel fare of the people. " Ills majesty recalled Marshal von Moltko's words to Prlnco Bismarck after the Franco- \ Gorman war : "Now Is the tlmo to sco the trco grow , " and said : ' "I will bo a good gardener to the trco ot the Gorman empire , lopping off the surpcr- flous branches nnd ferreting out and de stroying animals seeking to gnaw its roots. I hope I soon shall see the tree grandly de veloping. Before It stands the German Michael , with his hand on the hilt of his sword , looking afar In order to guard It , Secure Is tbo peace which shelters behind the shield of the German Michael and which Is defended by bis sword. "It Is truly a magnificent beginning for nil nations to attempt to bring about peace , but a mistake has been made In the calcu lations. So long as unredeemed aln prevails among mankind , so long will thorn bo war , hatred , envy and discord and BO long will man endeavor to overreach his fellows. But what lu law among men Is law among na tions. Therefore , wo hball strlvo that vo Teutons stand together lllu a solid rock. May every wave threatening peace break on this rock of bronze ot the German people , whether it bo far auiiy or nigh unto us at homo , " The emperor then added : "Peace must bo preserved at homo nnd abroad , and the pcoplo of the mark of Brndenburg , above all , must lend mo their help to do so. " In ( lie Diet mid The debates In the Prussian Dlot this week wore of especial Interests ns they broucht out the full extent of tbo ugrnrlan demands 1 ' and showed that the Pruitolau cabinet Is unanimous on the agrarian question. Tbo DRTurlan party In tlio Diet Is much stronger than In the Rulchstnc and the speeches rhowed that oven the national liberals HUP- port the agrarians on many question * . Herr Wallbrecht , national liberal , assured the government that ( here was a deep feelIng - * Ing of dissatisfaction caused by the agri cultural depression in Western 1'russla an nell us in tbo east and that tbq sugar crisis hud severely hurt the Khlno provinces.

Tuoiu- was an Interesting debate iu the Reichstag oil tliB bill iutroducod by Herr Klckert for the protection of the poerccy of the ballot. The two conservative factions for the first tlmo openly nvowed tliolr desire to nbollah the secrecy ot the ballot nnd Hmperor William' * friend , Baron > on Stumm , plainly declared that sooner or Inter secrecy must bo abolished , nt which the whole right loudly applauded.

The ofnclal Hclchsnnzclger hns produced most ot the now Cuban tariff regulations and the Oormnn press Is greatly dissatisfied with them , claiming the regulations nro so framed as to favor American Imports nt the expense ot German nnd other European Imports. The Boursen Courier , the leading com- morclnl organ , dwells particularly on the fact that German staple exports such as textiles and wines , are most unftuornbly treated and concludes nn article on the sub ject with curing ! "Tho tariff regulations made by the United States for Cuba know nothing ot the 'open door.1 Surely some thing will have to be said of them In the future. " Tlio establishment ot n company to lay a direct cable between Germany and the United States now seems definitely assured. The capital , 20,000,000 marks , has been fur nished by n number of banks nnd private capitalists , Including the duke of Hatlbor. The German government la understood to be favoring this nnd other cnbla enterprises , and the Itclchstag will bo asked to make various appropriations In return for pre emption privileges. The Dculach Zcltung concludes an article on the subject as follows : "Thus the first step Is taken to free Germany from the Brit ish cable monopoly , which In the event of war might become fatal to us. " The kelps Ic Nachrlchten says some prUato letlera from the late Prluco Bismarck to General von Mnnteufel , Uion governor of the Relchsland , containing spicy Items of court nnd political gossip , nere sold on Von Mnnteuffcl'B death to n. Ber lin banker , having profitable business rela tions with the emperor nnd court. The banker. It Is added , paid 40,000 marks for the letters. A elpslc writer recently wanted to use the letters for a historical work and the banker at first promised 'to lend them , Later , however , ho refused on the plea that It would cost him hla valuable clientele , having recplved an Intimation from the court chamberlain to that effect. The Berlin Prcsa chronicles this regret fully and adds that a third volume of Bis marck memoirs really exists , giving sen sational Information regarding the present reign. The manuscript , It appears , was sent to England before Bismarck died. Cmperor William this week ordered that tbo pnrk and gardens surrounding Mon BIJour eliatcau , In the center of Bprlln , be- closed to the public. This Is due to a startling Incident which has only Just be come known. Last Sunday the emperor and empress left the church opposite the palace and walked toward the carriage , which was watting for them Just Inside Mon BIJour park. An Immense crowd had as sembled nnd < was so dense that their majes ties had great difficulty In reaching the vehicle. When they succeeded In doing so the coachman -was unable to drive off , be ing hemmed In on all sides. Thus the emperor and empress were obliged to llstpn to tbp personal comments of the populacn and it Is claimed that "insulting epithets were flung at the Imperial couple. Finally reinforcements ot police made a line through the croud and their majesties drove oil amid hooting and cat-calls. The emperor Is engaged In preparations for public performances of a dlograma show ing the places ho visited during his eastern trip , the pictures beug ( drawn from the photographs taken by hla orders during the tour. The performances will bo given at the Schausplelhaus and the receipts v > lll be devoted to charity. Itciirlinnuil of n Colonel.

This reached the ears of the emperor , who ropjl- mandcd the colonel and forbade Its repe tition. . There were forty-eight trials for lose ma- jesto In January nnd sentences totalling BOV- ' entcen years In prison were Inflicted.

( Now Ydrk World Ca blegram Special Telegram. ) The Informa tion published last week by the Yachting World that manganese bronze plates had been decided upon as t ho material with which the yacht Shamrock will bo built haa excited n keen discussion as to its suitabil ity. Sir Thomas Llpton says , however , that ho 1 Is qulto satisfied that the test towhich that and otnor suggested metals -were sub mitted fully established the superiority lu every way ot manganese bronr.e , Onu of the beat authorities on yachting hns pointed out that the handicap estimated by the Hcrrcshofts afi equal to seventeen tons dead weight In favor of Defender ns | against Yalkyrlo III owing to the use of Tobtu bronze In the American yacht is non 1c 1t existent. In other word ? . It is argued that tliero Is no such difference. The selection , of manganeeo bronze for tlio Shamrock will ' place the English yacht on more oven terms with the American boat than In any pre vious international race for the America's cup. Last summer In the races between the American and Canadian half raters the Fife came out of the trial successfully. The great point horctoforo In Herroshoff's yachts has been ability In sailing off the wind. This IB precisely the quality for wlilch the Fife boats , big and small , are noted. It Is therefore a question ot pure skill In handling the racers. Both Fife and Gcorgo L.

In my opinion the choice of tills metal has been exceedingly well made and the Americans will Und It im possible to bettor It , even If they go back to aluminum. I do not envy the task ot Messrs.

He was at Welbcck Abbey with the duke of Portland's party about two months ago. Ho then went abroad. I had a letter from him n- few days since and expect him homo very shortly. There Is no mystery about Ills movements. Ho Is stnjlng now , I should think , in Unterfraken , Basnrla , with bis brother. " "Can you account for this advertisement In the papers ? " "No , unless It IB a part of a blackmail ing attempt by the disreputable people I have mentioned. I don't wish to speak more on this point. " * The mystery Is only deepened by the ap parent frankness of the princess , for in quiry In Germany elicits the fact that sev eral advertisements hnvo appeared there for ( lie prince without effect. It Is suspected ho may have met with foul play. Almost since their marrlago tlio prince and princess have led a soml-delached existence , ho being away for considerable periods.

The biggest Iroublo ahead of the go\ eminent Is the condition of the established church which Is rent lu twain bctneen the high and low church par ties. The growth of the ritualistic ) practices n the church lus been enormous. So pow er till has the ritualist party boooino that the RO\ernmcnt is afraid to loglslnto against Itualism as It might provoke n. schism which would wreck the Anglican church and probably drive the bulk ot the most Itillu- cnttal members over to Rome , Salisbury's hands are tied us his sons are among the ardent champions of ritualism , while his own sympathies lie in the same direction. His panacea Is to encourage the episcopate use to the full powers it already possesses in dealing with breaches with the ubllo on the part ot clergymen , but It is an open secret that a majority of the blah- ops themselves are ritualists , so no united action Is possible among them. In fact , to ordinary observers , the services as now habitually conducted In many Protestant ( iiurches In London are scarcely dlstlnglsh- able from the Catholic services. The bishop of Liverpool , ono of the very few low church bishops , the other day ordered a vicar in his diocese to dismiss two curates nho Introduced the ruasi , confession and reservation of the sacrament Into theli services. They were dismissed and Instantly half a dozen other Liverpool vlcnrs offered them curacies. They accepted and resumed their ritualistic practices. The bishop of ilverpool was Implored by low churchmen to cancel these recalcitrant curates' license , but he dared not do so , because It would nvolve him In endless trouble and lltlga- tlon. Liverpool typifies tlio chaotic condition of the English church. It's low church party is earnest to fanaticism , hating what they call Romish practices and violently call- ns for representative mcasutes against the ritualistsvho , on their side , comprise ihe intlucntlal and intellectual class nnd ire equally earnest * ln repudiating- Idea ot going over to Rome , though Virtually prac- tlclng Catholic doctrine , except the suprem acy of the pope. Salisbury nnd Balfour , T\ho nro 'both sincere . churchmen , are afiald of the consequences in submitting Icgls- atlon , Involving delicate points of doctrlno to Parliament , which includes not only n largo non-protestant element , but also n considerable section of agnostics. This strife a making direct for the dis-cstablishment of state and church. The queen's sympathies are with the most nd'vauced ritualists , In fact Is known to entertain a great tenderness - derness for Roman Catholicism. WorU of Irlnli I.nnil Lcneur , The Irish league , founded six months ago In Mayo by William O'Brien , Is fast be coming the most formidable weapon In the agrarian agitation Ireland has known since land league dajs. In western Ireland the best land Is kept In great tracts for grazing cattle , while the i tenants ara huddled toge'ther in miserable , ' stony holdings so small that they are In sufficient to supoprt the families living In them. The original object of O'Brien's league was to compel grazers to sell their land to the tenants so as to prevent a periodic recurrence 'of the famine which the slightest failure of-crops brings on these tenants. The league organization , which has eprciil HKo wildfire , now comprises ISO branches In Connaught and Is fast gaining ground in i i Lelnster .and Munster. Enormous mass I meetings are being held throughout the west in furtherance of Its objects. All rich 1 ' , nationalist sections are found standing to gether on Its platforms. The government attempted to stop Its progress by prohibit ing its meetings , but found that this action only stimulated Its growth. At a great meeting held this week at Claremorrls , .near where the land league- was founded , the platform of the United Irish league was extended to ombracc the whole njtlonnl program. Many of the grazing tenants have already signified their \\llllngncs.s to subdivide their land , but'O'Brien determined not to part with -powerful a political lover as the league has become.

( Now York World Cable gram Special Telegram. ) The cause of Justice for Dreyfus Is shabbily slipping backward. The Quistnay Beaurepalro res ignation , followed by the government's action In superseding the criminal court of causation , Is a blow at the very foundations of civilized government , demonstrating.tho overwhelming power of the antl-Droyfusltea BO plainly as to make Dreyfus' most deter mined champions despair. The antl-Dreyfusltes need not overthrow the icpuTillc , ai Us government Is prepared to prostitute all its institutions to their bid ding.

Under tliu existing 'law ' the fount of cassation en masse was entitled not only to quash the Illegal sentence of the court-anartlal of 1SM ! , but had tbo right to try the whole case and If witlsflcd of 'tbo ' Innocence of the victim on Dovil's Island could restore him to freedom. Tlio new bill proposes to take this power a\\ay from the court of cassation , and lot the final sentence Ho with the court-martial , By this provision .the proceedings are net In a vicious circlo.
