For the fourth time in the history

The wisdom of our fnthurs ,

eminent should never bo imperiled
because of the uncertainty of human

LONDON , Sopt. 22. The German
tovornmi'iit has fully determined to .
lo nil in its power to secure the pun-
shmont of men who mnko attempts
ipon the lives of the heads of govern-
uents. With this object it has re-
ipcned negotiations looking towards .
ho oxtrndition of nny one who shall '

minister of nny government , and to -
Drusli nway the distinction
ilthorto made between po
litical offences nnd other crimes
l > y which BO ninny criminals have boon
\\i\o \ \ to find safety by merely crossing
iv frontier. The assassination of
President Garfield , following so quick
ly upon the murder of the czar and
the frequent attempts .recently made
upon the lives of Emperor William ,
King Alfonzo "and Prince Bismnrck.
is thought by the German govormcnt
to have nwnkuncd the mind of the
itntcsmcn of every country of the '
importance of thu steps which it
now is preparing to urge. Bisinnrclc
docs not propose to r.sk that fugitives
who have confined thuir treasonable
designs toward or to even acts not in
volving an attempt at murder shall
come within the proposed treaty , but
proposes to ask all the governments
to consent that the murderer of a king
or n minister shall bo surrendered up

CORN "CORNER. "
Tnllc of n Corner on October Corn
The Wall Street Mniilp-

OiuuAno , Sojit. 22. Humors have
been tloatiilg about for several days
hat n "corner" is brewing in October
corn. Ib is gossiped about that Wall
troot operators are heavy buyers of
corn , and already have 10,000,000
bushels , more or less , and intend to
runa giganticdoal in the next month's
future. Among other theories in
support of the story is ono to the
ulleeb that these followB intend to
ilnck up the elevators hero with
grain , BO that there will
room for fresh receipts , and , aa
grain iR not regular for delivery on
contracts unless accompanied with
warehouse receipts , the corn arriv
ing after everything is filled up could
lot bo delivered on account Bales.
There was tnlk yesterday of removing
thin objection by modifying the rules
so that No. 2 corn in cars or vessels
could bo delivered in future in the
enmo way as grain in store. The ca
pacity of the olovotbra here is about
18,000,000 bushels.and it is said there
ire about 8,000,000 bushels of vacant
room now which it would not take
very long to fill up.
