WILLIAM'S VISIT TO LONDON European Diplomatic Circle Deeply In teretted la the Boyat Tonr Oersaaaa FraJta America's Pork Italian Ambassador at Berlin Becalled. London, Jane fc3. The arrest And prosecution of a firm of dishonest brok ers in Mauchsster throws a lurid light on the way souse American enterprises are floated here. Last month a joint stock company called the Waterworks and Gasworks Securities corporation, with a capital of 2,000,000, was floated with apparent success. It proposed to deal with water and gas securities en tirely in America, and was projected by Colonel O. B. Inman. The board of directors was a very influential one, and included tbe name of Sir Charles Topper. Befora going to allotment the sum of 700,000 bod been under written and approved It now turns out that of this large sum no less than 430,000 of the amount underwrit ten was by forgeries of prominent names in Manchester and Liverpool. This was discovered to be the work of Ernest Power, a member of the broker age firm of Power & Clegg. Power is now under arret, charged with forging the transfer of 30,000 ill shares of the reason 6z Knowle company. It wat through his arrest that the forgeries of the underwriters' names became known. The director met and determined to re turn all tbe moneys subscribed by the public, adding 0 per cent, interest thereto. William's Visit to England. London, June 23. A fortnight hence we are to have one of tbe most notable royal visits within the memory of liv ing men. Young William is coming to London in tbe pomp of state. His entry will easily be the chief ceremonial event of the kind since Louis Napoleon and Eugenie came in 185.1, Only three years ago notning unier ine sun seemea more nnlikely than bis ever being welcomed in his grandmother's island capital. In deed, it is safe to say, be would bave been hooted in the streets. Now every thing is so changed that his visit prom ises to be marked by exceptional en thusiasm. As always happens in such cases, tbe press of the Old World will surrender itself to all sorts of speculation, sur mises, and canards as to the political significance of the visit. Lord Salisbury and the queen bave done their best to pwwnsrf eetniilnfies of tff' toy iecusjs mending to the kaiser that he leave Chancellor Caprivi at borne, and this will be done, but, all the same, the triple alliance is in such an unsettled, not to say shaky, state that politicians all over Europe will keep their ears strained for the slightest hint of what William is saying and doing while here. Germans Praise Amerloa's Pork. Berlin, June 23. Tbe American 'pig is once again engaging public attention, but in an unusual fashion this time; it is actually being praised instead of be ing;condeinnod.The change of feeling in favor of "our national product" has been brought about in this way: It happened that recently in the Elberfeld slaughter house a dozen German pigs were discovered to le affected with trichinosis. An investigation, of course, waa made, aud it was proved conclus ively that these porkers had been fat tened at knackeries where rats abound. The papers have discussed the matter and they say, "Whatever is charged against the American bog, it cannot be said that it feeds on rats." The Melinite Scandal. Paris, June 23. In the chamber of deputies Monday Deputy Lesserre moved that the governmVnt explain why there had been such a long delay in prosecuting the culprits in the Mel init scandal and why the examination had been conducted with closed doors. Minister Freycinet answered that an in quiry was instituted in 1889 regarding the relations between Turpin and Tri pone. The examination was secret be cause he found that an open trial might lead to disclosures inconvenient for the war office to make. After a debate a vote of confidence in De Freycinet was adopted by 333 to 137. Welsh Tin Plate Work t rinan. London, June 23. Tba Welsh tin plats work will shut down about the end of the week.

PetTer of Kansas. New York, June 23. Senator Peffer of Kansas spoke at tbe mass meeting at Cooper onion under the auspices of the Citizens' Alliance association. About 700 persons were present. The senator was cordially received. He said among other things that affairs bad come to such a state in this country that whenever the men of Wall street dictated a policy cf government that policy was adopted.

Chairman Finley bat written another letter to General Passenger Agent Charlton, of the Alton, repeating nit offer to withdraw the round trip excursion rates between Kan sas City and Chicago and between Kan sat City and St. LouU. Far from com plying, it is probable the action will make a still further reduction. In hit reply Charlton flatly refuses to obey the order and vigorously defines tbe poal tion of bis company. He makes tbe statement that be baa in bis possession facts which warrant a further reduc tion, and which wakts it necessary for bis road to promptly pnt into effect a one-way rate of $10 be tween Kansas City and Chicago and a M rata from Chicago to St. Lonio This action is rendered necessary, be save, by tbe action ot tbe Alton's com nelitors. who are practically making their mileage and excursion tickots good to bearer without observing tbe reguia tions making tbem uon-transferrablo. He also asserts that tickets sold in the territory in which the Alton is boy cottea are being used for the express purpose or beinir scuineu in l iilcairo. it is rumored that in consequence of tbe attitude of the boycottiug roads, the Alton has decided to make contracts with foreign steamship lines for a period or nve or more years tor emigrant bus) ness.

Railway traffic managers of lines operating in Nebraska are agitated over a buslnees complies tion which promises to very materially reduce the earnings or the various com panies, so far as the immediate move' ment of the present crop is concerned. Hince the usual arrangement to distri bute grain cars throughout tbe state ror the purpose or facilitating tbe haul ins of a eron after harvest, it has devel oped that under tha new law declaring ail elevators public ws thouscs, so much or me grain win pa r tea to await bet ter prices, tv-t J -tively a small portiOB of t c. wur.b flaosw-ta toe maraei at onoe. Tbe law becomes operative next week. It is a measure of the Alliance legis lature and that organization has active ly encouraged its members to resort to levators whenever possible, and bor row money required for immediate ex penses on warehouse receipts, thus re serving the enormous crop of the state irom the market indefinitely, or until prices have materially advanced, Tbe grading will be similar to that in vogue in Minnesota, ana tne rating of Chicago, St. Louis, New York, and other grain centres win in no wise effect the fit) braska grading as in tho past.

The standing wheat was only slightly damaged. Damage to corn and oats is also reported to be insignificant. Hill Mot la Railroads. Albany, June 23.
