who accompanied hi itiirial master
the Uenuan emperor on his trip to

to the JewB. the utory ol which was re

1 have met the baron many a time,"
said Mr. Opienheimer, "at the Mann
heim Chess club, of which we both were
members He is an Hinlwtioas man
and was much pleased wlien he was, in
1878. elected to I he reichstag. the first
ultra-Couservati ve member that had ob
tained a victory in Haden. He was very
active in the (xerman parliament, being
one of the brightest, as well as the most
aggressive, men in that rather dull con
glomerate, the ultra-Conservative party
His prominent participation in the enact
ment of the antinsury law resulted in
rather funny complication.
"I happened to know personally the
other actor in the story, and I have my
information directly from him His
name was Louis Altheimen. a well-to-do
Hebrew residing in Mannheim and liv
ing on the proceeds of a snug fortune
which he had amassed in his youth in
the United States
CALLED THKM BLOODSUCKERS.
Althenner's 6peciaJty was to lend
money to officers of the army, to officials
nd others of that class erf society on
their promissory notes. His regular
charge was 12 ier cent, per annum. He
would of course, accommodate only
people who seemed to be good pay. As
a rule he would extend the note from
time to time on navment of the interest
provided he had no fear of buffering u
loss
'In those days Baron Marschall's fa
ther was yet alive and in possession of
his moderate estate. The young prose
cuting attorney had to get along in the
main on his rather modest salary. He
managed it pretty well until he had
wnne trouble with a young woman. It
would never do for the rising young
courtier and conservative statesman to
have the 6catidai made public, and to
hush it np about 5,000 marks in cash
was absolutely required. The baron en
tered into negotiations with Mr. Alt
beimer and secured the loan of his note.
The interest was paid promptly, and the
little bill was extended several times
without any difficulty
Iu advocating the antiusury bill in
the reichstag Baron Marschall delivered
a vehement speech against blood suck
ing usurers, especially those of Hebrew
descent. The law as passed, largely
owing to fliarschau s persistency, was
exceedingly vague in its provisions, leav
ing it practically to the discretion of the
courts to say whether in any giveD case
the taking of more than 6 per cent- was
criminal usury, punishable by impris
onment at hard labor and by fine.
VVOLli NOT RENEW
The session of the reichstag closed;
the baron returned to Mannheim and re
sumed the duties of his offi'.e. Mean
while his note for 5.000 marks, held by
Mr. Altheimer, was soon to fall due. The
baron wrote a note to his creditor, ask
ing him to call and arrange for an exten
sion of time under the usual conditions.
Altheimer replied briefly in writing that
under the new antiusury law he did not
feel safe in continuing to lend money in
his former way, and therefore proposed
to go into some other business, where
bis capital would yield him legitimate
profits. He notified the baron that the
note would be presented for collection
'This turn of affairs was embarrassing
for the young statesman He wrote
again to Mr. Altheimer, saying that the
usury act was never intended for cases
like his. and could uot apply to their re
lation He urged a renewal of the note
as a perfectly .safe and sensible transac
tion. "A reply soon came from the Hebrew
acknowledging the baron's good inten
tions as well as his legal acumen, but at
the same time pointing to the fact that
the interpretation of the law was left
entirely to the courts
"'Under those circumstances, Alt
heimer continued. I do uot feel dis
poned to put my ueck into the halter. 1
cannot renew your note. Von have been
accommodated so far by one of the
much abused Hebrew usurers at his
own terms. Your jopularity and your
position will probably induce some of
your Christian friends to lend you the
amount without security on perfectly
legal interest.
"Mr. Altheimer's note, it is needless
to add. was promptly paid. Marschall
subsequently became the diplomatic rep
resentative of the grand duke ot Baden
at Berlin, and still later he was appoint
ed under secretary of state in the for
eign office, filling the place formerly oc
cupied by Count Herbert Bismarck."
