. BEKLIN , July 2. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to the BEE. | As the hotel
keepers say , this has been a good week for
Americans. They have crowded Into Berlin
from many quarters , but chiefly from the
English jubilee. Senator Spooner and fam
ily ot Wisconsin are among this week's ar-
rlvsls , coming from Vonlco and Florence
and bound In a lew days for the American
headquarters In Europe , namely , Switzer
land. The senator laughingly told mo after
an Incidental allusion had been made to the
good effects ot traveling , that his newspaper
name was the "kid" of the senate. Speaking
of the Intense American feeling aroused In
his children by the summer abroad , the
senator seemed to echo most heartily the answer - *
swer given by him In the English hotel to
the question , "Aro you an American ? " " 1
am , thank God , " was the deep reply , given
with such emphasis as to startle the English
porters. Interest In Florence art , Dresden
music and Berlin's affectionate loyalty to the
emperor seemed to most strlko thn senator
during the trip. Even in three or four days
he noticed the Intense admiration for Prince
William. The general expectation Is that
the prince will bo a great leader , perhaps
even another Frederick the Great. This popu
larity , the senator thought. Is duo In a largo
measure to the German feeling that some one
Is needed who will stay further anxiety by
crushing Franco , and the German belief that
the prince's disposition and ability warranted
this.
THE FLAO INCIDENT.
American politics are of llttlo Interest to
Americans abroad. The senator know llttlo
of the controversy regarding the confederate
flags but thought it largely political rather
than sentimental. The feeling aroused Is
not hurting the president so much as his ve
toes of small pension bills in which by con
sent of both houses some old soldier would
Otherwise have got 813 per month.
Colonel Yatcs , who sat talking with us ,
took a different view of the fla ? matter , and
as a soldlorota Wisconsin regiment during
the war thought the project of returning
tthoso Hags would prove to be a serious matter
to all concerned.
OENBttAL CHHTELAIN'B MISSION.
Major General Chutolatn , foreign com
missioner ot the International military en
campment at Chicago , left hero Wednesday.
Ue had a pleasant reception by military men ,
but failed. I think , to obtain the promise of
German troops being present In Chicago.
Members fjpm the German band sent to Bos-
jfedn some years airo will effectually prevent
the success ot Clietelalno's errand In Europe.
Borne officers are likely to represent Germany
at Chicago's seml-contennlal , but no body of
German troops.
AMKHICAN8 COMING HOME.
Among the American students returning
home are several who have completed their
musical education under Prof. Kllnsworth.
Emma Kahy of Alabama , Benjamin Jareckl
of Colorado , and Virginia Bollloot Wyoming
are those graduating this week. The first
begins concert work soon after reaching
borne. Prof. Mason , of the Troy Polytechnic ,
has been In Berlin some days , as has also
Prof. Merrinara of New York , and F. C.
Roberta , of the Ft Madison ( la. ) Democrat
CIIEEUINO TUB KMPEBOK ,
w We have had fine weather , the Kaiser was
at the window each day. so the average Ber-
lltters passed a contented week In spite of a
little shakluoss on the bourse and some rum
blings In higher politics. The crowd In
front of the Kaiser's window when the guard
marches past has been all the week one of
th6 main sights of the city. The police keep
the "roadway nearest the paloco clear until
the guard passed with flying colors , the band
* playing. As the Emperor appears
the cheering begins. When the guard
nas marched past the crowd makes
a wild rush for the Emperor's
window and disappears for a moment
under a cloud ot waving hats and caps. It
Is a llttlo amusing to see a considerable pro
portion of Americans In this crowd as en
thusiastic as the most Prussian of Germans.
Generally the enthusiasm carries thorn oil
their feet and theyrush with the crowd to
cheer as loudly as any ono before the win
dow. For Instance , Senator Spooner was
not the least enthusiastic member ot
Wednesday's crush. The French 8.COJ.OOO
franc mobilization budget Is responsible for
the weakness on the Berlin bourse. It was
a weakness with nothing panicky about It ,
? " . and so the financial magnates say nothing
aerlous will happen for a while yet
TWO I'USASINO INCIDENTS
Two Americans attracted some attention
during the week. Prof. Arthur Classmen , of
the New York maunerchor , has been wined ,
or iwrnar * ratter , beered , by leading musi
cal lights of Berlin , In which It was also
aided by largo choruses of the lesser vocal
lights. There was a little speech making ,
much chorus singing and endless beer , until
the early morning hours. A Berlin paper
delicately put It toward the middle night
Director Moher was given a parchment
diploma from the mannercuor , oud Director
Xalloor a golden leading baton from the
New York Elchenkrany verelu.
Tha other New Yorker , an Importer ol
considerable wealth , hod , so it Is stated , i
tag controversy about some goods sent him
froat Berlin. After much letter writing he
was forced to accept the goods. Being
baatei , he wanted to see the person clover
enough to beat him. lie found on arrival
kra that his antagonist Is a Klrl of twenty ,
si t > pretty as well as clever. - Being a man of
atase he saw his opportunity and the en-
tafevent was announced with buslpess-llke

French Hatred For German * .
[ Copy ; fuMSS7 MKcw York Atnctiittd I'mi.l
UEIII.IN , July 2. The North German
Gazette reprints an article fiom the National
Xeltung , of which the following is an ab
stract : "What will seemingly justify the
Eutopran governments In refusing to enter
thn Paris exhibition Is a persecution ot
foreigners. Not only Germans but German
speaking people , Swiss and Austrlans , oven
Englishmen , are objects of rude and In
cessant attacks by the French press , and In
numerous cases they are molested and mal
treated. It Is absurd to Invite the people
they hate to participate in tlio exhibition ,
and unless aclianco occurs ( ho absurdity will
bo icllected In the fate of the exhibition. "
HOULANOKll'S COt'l'-D-UTAT.
The Cologne Gazette asserts that General
Boulanger , before his deposition from the
war ministry , really Intended a coup-d-'etat ,
and was only prevented from carrying out
ils designs by General Saussler.
MAUD LUCK FOIl OEItMANP.
The Mulnouso Correctional tribunal has
just sentenced a German domestic , who orig
inally belonged In Hesse , to nine months Im
prisonment and a small line for crying "Vivo
La France" In a tavern at Saushlne. The
heaviness of the sentence was duo to the fart
that the culprit was a German. The
relations beetwcen Germany and liussla are
becoming Incomprehensible. While there Is
seeming concord between the two courts , the
war ot extermination against everything
German Is over Increasing In Itussla. This
action on the part of Kussla results In In
tense bitterness against that country In Ber
lin , where the leading journals talk of
reprisals and self-defense. These articles
showing the growing distrust of Itussla have
already had their effect In the falling prices
of Ilusslan securities.
THREE DISAPrOINTF.ES.
The unceasing efforts ot Prince Ilohon-
lohe , Count Uenckel and llerr Kramer , the

WAGXEIl'8
Correct Statements About Two of
Them In Dispute.
18S7 liy Jamet Gordon Bennett. ]
BEULIX , July 8. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to the BEE. ] So many mis
leading statements regarding two of Wag
ner's early operas "Tho Fairies" and "For
bidden Love" have recently gene the
rounds of the American and English press ,
tiiat I am glad to bo able to give Prof. Clend-
worth's authoritative statement ro ardlni ;
these operas. Clendworth has transcripted
all Wagner's operas , and Is a well-known
orchestral leader and composer , as well as an
expert In musical matters , lie said : "When
the king of Bavaria took Wagner Into tils
service ho paid his debts and otherwise
placed him In a position to work to the
best advantage. Wagner , out of gratltudu
presented the king with all his scores. Af
terwards there came a difference of views as
regards the production ot his operas. Wag
ner wished all the operas to be brought out at
Baircuth , while the king desired the first
performance at Munich. There was an es
pecially stiona feeling regarding "Parcnlfal , "
but finally Wagner obtained the king's per
mission that thn production ot "Parcelfal"
be confined to Balreuth. After imdwlg
Second's death the prince rczent wished to
produce "Parcolfal" at Munich. " To prevent
this Wagner's heirs reluctantly agreed to the
production of The Fairies at Munich. It
was sung lost winter , but attracted
little attention and added nothing
to Wagner's reputation , In fact quite the con
trary. It is Interesting historically as showIng -
Ing the growth of a great musician's mind ,
It Is otherwise of no Importance whatever.
My impression la that Wagner never In
tended to have all this youthful work pro
duced. At any rate Its production was con
trary to the wishes of the heirs , who regard It
a great sacrifice made to save "Parcelfal"
Neumann , who had a ten years' right to pro
duce the Nibelungen series , has also
bought the right for "The Farles" and
will soon mount It As regards
"Forbidden Love , " I do not know that over
a score existed. Certainly It has not been
produced yet , nor Is It likely to be very soon.
You see , therefore , there Is very little truth
In the clippings you have shown. "
Clendworth goes to America In the fall to
spend the winter studying American musical
resources. 1 found the professor strongly of
the opinion that the coming musical center
ot the United States will be In thu west
rather than In the east , Chicago , In his opin
ion , offering the best opportunity for great
success , and a leader with energy and time
to cultivate an audience up to high musical
standard.
FRENCH EXILES .IN 3ERSEY.
Arrival and Reception of the Count
de Paris.

ST. HELIEKS Island of Jersey , July 1.
[ New York Herald Cable Special to the
BERij The royalists of Verde * , Britany
Normandy , have been excited at the ex
pected consequences of the visit to Jersey by
the head of the Malson de France. Conite de
Netra. A legitimist overflowing with the
chivalrous convictions of the days ot St
Louis , said to me : "Now Is the time for ou
prince to throw himself on his horse and
with drawn sabre , appear and conquer hli
own again. Frenchmen are ready to follow
him from Granvllle to San Molo. " Delega
tions of royalists are embarking on a pil
grimage to Jersey under the belief that the
Count do Paris' trip to Saint Aubin mark
an epoch in the annals of French royalty fa
surpassing the prince's recent visits to San
llemor , Geneva. The population of Jersey I
also stirred and hundreds of Jtrsey'
prettiest women and brawncst men
thronged the red granite rocks of Victoria
pier which forms the entrance to St. tleller
harbor and gazed seaward at an early hou
to-day. Among the spectators noticed was
dear Lo Breton. Mrs. Langtry'a father
whoso duo Greek head and firm , sensua
mouth were pointed out by knots of curloui
lalers. Jersey's fashionable maidens am
young married women looked their very tove

was the lilies ot Jersey paying homajo to
ho lilies of France. The wcathrr was su

was beautiful , the turquolso blue Jersey
oasts fringed with myriads ot llttlo Islands

Iko horses , Leo Island. The fortresses of
Elizabeth's castle and St. Aubln'scastlo rival
he Bay ot Naples. At 12:15 : thn steamer
Clla with the Count do Paris on board ,
ounded Novlmont point and steamed Into
St. Aubln's bay. Faint murmurs , "Hero
comes tbo prince , " rose from the coral lips ot
levies of Jersey lilies , An ambiguous pho--
ographcr leveled a camera at the two masted
steamers bringing the exllo prince. The Ella
catno quickly alongside , but the prlnco was
nvlslbte. Tlio first passenger to jumpashoro
rom the Ella was a wiry little jockey with a
saddle on his arm. A crowd of passengers
followed. At last came the prince , lloworo
a dark colored traveling suit All present
incovercd and shouted , "Vivo Mol. "
rho prlnco raised his hat , bowed , and
ink-red a barouche In waiting , followed by
Due Trovenovllle , with a long ( lowing
redlsh beard and a dtiplsli secretary. Then
. 'ortcn , grand royalist chief of 11 vo royalist
lepartments , arrived from Itcnncs to re
ceive the prince. Half an hour's drive
along the road fringed with meadows tilled
with ga/etto colored Jersey cows , tied by the
lorns to stakes , brought the prlnco to Som-
mervlllo hotel , a llttlo three-story villa with
a peaked roof , hired by the prlnco for the
visit. I called on the prinro in the afternoon
and was received In a small library flouting
ho sea. The prince seems In splendid
lealth , slightly stouter since last Juno when
I crossed the channel with him In the Ill-
fated \ ictorla , when ho went In exllo to
Dover. I said to the prlnco the Impression
jalncd ground that the pilgrimage
to Jersey will assume the form of
n manifestation , and a zealous nobleman
from Brittany says the tlmo Is near when the
royalists should appear mounted with drawn
sabres. The prince Interrupted me."All
that Is perfect nonsense. I came hero in a
quiet and the most unostentatious manner
possible. 1 take a modest llttlo cottage. My
only object Is to have the pleasure of making
the acquaintance of a few conservative lead
ers and the Normandy Brittany deputies who
care to come to see me. Owing to my exllo
it Is impossible for mo to meet them In
Franco. Nothing approaching a manifesta
tion was ever thought of or even dreamed
of. "
I asked : "i our eldest son , duke of Or
leans , does not accompany you , slrcV" The
prince replied : "Oh , oh , not now. Hols
hard at work at Sandhurst studying
for examination. You sen I
came here very quietly , merely
tomako a personal acquaintance and fete
political friends. Nothing more. "
I took leave of the prince just as Porten
De la Martlnleve and drillers , deputies , and
M. Do Masan arrived. Numerous steamers
especially hired for the occasion , will bring
General De Chailtte and the papal zouaves
from St. Mclo and Granvlllo. The Jersey
pilgrims will not exceed SOO and the prlnco
will not receive them as a body , but a few at
a time , and In the quieti-st manner possible ,
The weather continues superb. 'I ho sea Is
as calm as a mirror. Bevies of dellclously
beautiful young Jersey lilies walk by the cot
tage in the vain hope of getting a glance of
the prince. The only inhabitants not excited
by royalty are the little fawn-like Jersey
cows , who continue chewing their cud as if
French politics never existed In the channel
Island. Thus has the most distinguished
exllo since Victor Hugo been received.
Gladstone's Talk.
LONDON , July 2. Sir Joseph Peasogavoa
banquet to-night , In honor of Mr. Gladstone.
The ex-prlmo minister made a long speech ,
it being chiefly an elaborate criticism ot the
speeches of Lord llartlngton at Manchester
and BlacKburn. "Ireland , " ho said , "was
stronger now on the homo rule question than
ever before. There is a crisis in Ireland ,
where , after giving her largo representation ,
we trampled under foot the whole wishes
and convictions ot her peopio as
expressed by five-sixth of their
members. The second crisis is the reduc
tion of parliament to paralysis and Impa
tience. I predicted that unless the Irish
question was settled parliament would find
creator difficulty In performing Its duty
toward England and Scotland. That pre
diction has been more than verified. We
have reached such a point that not only does
Ireland monopolize the tlmo of parliament ,
but parliament is incapable of dealing with
the whole Irish question. We are forbtdnen
to say a word on the most vital point in the
question , and are confined to the most inlsci-
able corner by the framing ot the coercion
bill to put down the liberties of Ireland. "

responded on behalfof , the state of Virginia
to Pennsylvania's welcome. He said :
"Not only do wo receive and shall ever

chlct city , but also of those brave men who

valor that wo could not overcome and who

and scepters of klnes-on whose supporting
arm the goddess of liberty leans , and whose
daily utterances proclaim that peace , friend
ship and love once more binds the American
people with gold bands of indlsolublo and
perpetual union. The press and bravo and
generous soldiers of our land have brought
this night and these scones to pass. All
honor and love to both. 1 utter it as the
sentiment that comes swelling up from

That man whowould rekindle

our land with death and tears
and grief and mourning , with graves and
suffering , IK not only unwoithy ot the high
title of American citizen , ' but even that of a

a true man at heart In the south to-day but
who feels as It ho would llko to stand at the
tombs of Lincoln and Grant , to plant a flower
there , and water it with a manly tear In the
presence of a feeling llko this , too sacred and
deep for utterance. What matters it who shall
