r FiUNKroiiT , August C. [ New York Her-
nld Cable Special to the IlKH.l Uy n very
lucky coincidence I hnvo just had n highly
Interesting conversation with a foreign
diplomatist wh'oso high position enables him
to have ns clear nn Insight Into the views
and ulterior alms of Prlnco Dlsmarck ns per
haps any man living can havo. The diplo
matist In question was passing through
Frankfort on his way to a fashionable Ger
man watering place , nnd tlio fortune of
travel placed us In the samorallwavcarriage.
I called the diplomatist's attention to
the report published by the
Brussels Gazette to the effect
that the German stall wcro completing a
measure by which In twenty four hours
4CO,000 Gei man troops could bo thrown Into
Holland. The diplomatist said that the re
port Is so near to tiio truth that It Is si're to
bo contradicted. "Germany's designs upon
Holland are , In my opinion , the keynote of
Prlnco Bismarck's future projects. Prince
Bismarck , If ho cloaks his acts , seldom con
ceals his opinions , nnd I bavo serious
reasons that justify my conviction that be
fore long Prlnco lilsmarck will , by an adroit
move , use Holland as the means , strange as
It may seem at first sight , ot cementing a
friendship with Franco and of acquiring a
colonial empire for Germany. "
I remarked : "I don't ( mite understand
yon. How could this bo done In this way ? "
"Suppose some day the Germans were to
Bay to France : 'You may have Alsace
Lorraine back again provided you will let
Germany have carlo blanche elsewhere and
will agree to Germany absorbing Holland
and all Holland's colonies. ' iJlsmaick has
simply been holdinir a bunch of grapes very
high. A proposition to return the lost prov
inces would bo received in Franco with leaps
and bounds ot admiration. At heart the
French and Germans do not hate each other
nearly ns bltteily as the Fiench
and English do. 1 firmly believe
that Prince IJIsmarck sincerely contemplates
such a move. The chancellor never follows
the well beaten lines of diplomatic routine.
Ills genius is ns Indefinable as that of a poet ,
n founder of religions , or of an nrtist. His
diplomatic thunderbolts strlko at ono mo
ment In Schleswlg-Holstoln , then in Austria
nnd again in Franco. Ho is not the man to
have made such extraordinary sacrifices to
lay the foundation of Gorman colonization
unless ho felt sure of reaching a rich har
vest.
"Thochancellor knows that every German
Hint emigrates to America Is forever lost to
Uermany. The moment Geimany has col-
Diiles of her own this vast drain upon the
tftthorland cannot only bo chocked , but trans-
termed Into a priceless ttouica ot strength.
I'lio vast colonies ot Holland olfer exactly
what Germany wants. They could be at once
made profitable without spending n single
thaler. Holland has sunk millions of golden
and thousands of men In Java and Sumatra.
With Gorman organization and energy the
Dutch Indies would form a sort of wedge , or
Btrateglo vantage ground , dividing Eng
land's two great colonial bulwarks Austra
lia and India.
"Prince Bismarck feels that France and
Ucrmany are natural allies and that the real
Miemy of Germany nnd France nnd Russia Is
England. It Is on this basts that the future
Of Kuropo and Asia Is to bo settled the con
tinent for the continentals ; Germany to
cement a lasting friendship with France by
giving back Alsace-Lorraine , and thereby
rcalUo her maKiilgcent dream ot a colonial
empire ; and Russia , under the icjls of Ger
many nud Franco , to secure a ro\d not only
to Constantinople , but to n much coveted
portion of the Indian ocean between Persia
* nd British India.
"His to-day not Franco but England thai
Is the chancellor's beto nolr everywhere In
turns. It Is F.ngland that opposes his Inter
ests In the Balkan peninsula ; It is England
that la straining every nuivo to create small
Independent nationalities into barrier :
against Russian nnd Austrian conquest and
dominion that Bismarck Is trying to brlnu
about In Kgypt. England Is the dog in the
manger that piovents Bismarck's policy ol
placing Kgypt under French or contlncnta
control. In central Asia It Is England tha
prevents Russia from developing southward
n policy nlwa > s felt by Bismarck to ho a necessity
cessity to enable Germany to hold her owi
In central Europe. Everywhere It Is Eng
land that stands In the chancellor's way. "
And hero the diplomatist lighted a frcsl
cigar and added , with a significant sniilo :
"In splto of these plain facts , Kucland
durlne the present naval maneuvers , seemi
to have utterly Ignored the possibility of do
fensu against a German or an allied Frencl
nnd German and Russian fleet attacking he
from the North son. The British naval nu
thorltlcs seem to have only provided for tin
case of French Invaders coming from Cher
bour ? or Boulogne 1
" 1 may mention another Incident tha
strengthens my conviction that Germany ha
designs upon ready-made colonies. In 1SS1
when thu Impending occup.Uion of Egypt b ,
British troops was spoken of , Baron D
Saurma Jellsch was the Gorman diplomati
ncint ; In Egypt. Prlnco Bismarck at tha
time Instructed Baron Do Saurma to propos
thut Holland and not England should scm
troops to occupy Egypt. When these view
were expressed by Baron Do Saurniit li
Kgypt. the other diplomatists , among whor
wns Sir Edward Malet , now British ombas
eador at Berlin , expressed some surprise n
such a proposal coming trom Germany , an
Prlnco Bismarck's ulterior alms In maklu
aucli a proposition were eagerly discussed
The prevailing-opinion In diplomatic circle
at Carlo was that Germany had designs npo
Holland and wished to put Holland to the for
as much as possible , so as to make Germany' '
colonial heritage the moro valuable. Sue !
t least , wore the views expressed at the tlm
by M. DeDlcncency , then French Diplomnti
ageut In Egypt. It la rather a curluu-t coli
cldcnco that Iaron ! DoSamma , who In 1SS1
was the mouthpiece of Bismarck's Holland
absorbing policy should to-day bo the German
minister at The Hague. "
And with this remark our conversation
ended.

PAIUS , August 0. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to the BKK.J There is no
longer any opera performance In Paris. AH
the theaters are closed , nnd consequently all
the dramatic clement of the Parisians , both
comic and tragic , nro still focused upon the
Boulnnger-Feiry ctnbiozUo and the nice ,
iialr-spllttlnz points of duelling etiquette that
liavo grown out of It A careful in-
pectlon ot the thirty-six dally pa
pers that appear in Paris shows that
during the last four days no less than 1,015
olnmns about duels have appeared and still
more are demanded by the public. Every
duel and every challenge since 1528 , when
Francis 1 challenged Emperor Charles IV ,
; eoms to have been raked out of historical
uuiber rooms and put up for the news of the
day in the dally papers. M. Paul do Cassaj-
nac bitterly reproaches General Buulancer ,
who Is both young and vigorous , for not
ihooslng the sword , "The pistol , " soys the
; rent ornelo upon duelling , "is the weapon
of civilians , of people In a hurry. The trigger
s pulled and bang all Is over. Now , what
does Geneinl Boulanger mean by saying that
ho chose pistols to equalize the chances ? If
his was really as In the M. Larelnty duel ,
his pretext might still pass muster , though
ny aged friend , Larelnty is quite
able , sword in hand , to got the
better ot a much younger man
han Boulanger. The pistol seems to bo n
ihivalrotis concession. I say 'seems , ' for in
ruth it Is not so at all. The pretext Is ridlc-
.ilous and detestable. If General lioulauger
, s so anxious to got near M. Ferry , why
doesn't ho use the weapon that hangs at his
side ? Why does General Uoulangor show such
repugnance to the old traditional weapon.
Tlio weapon made Illustrious by our race ,
ho weapon Francaise par excellence11 M.
Ferry , without being a skilled swordsman ,
could still hold his own with General lou- !
acgcr , and the general should then be within
ilx paces of his adversary , and perhaps even
: orps a corps , If necessary. No doubt Gen
eral Boulangor is a bravo man , but why the
devil has ho such a dislike to the sword ? Tno
radltlons and rules of n duel with swords
allow such a duel to become ns deadly as pen
slblc. Why , M. Rauc , whan ho fought with
ny most Intimate friend , whom , by dlscro-
; lon 1 shall not name , accepted tlio following
conditions : The combat to continue * until
one or the other of the adversaries says to the
other , 'Sir , I have had enough of this , * But
I don't despair of seolnz General lioulnngcr ,
when he can't arrange about his pistol dis
tance , take to the sword. "
After this allusion to the M , Ranc duel ,
which recalls somewhat the encounter be
tween Macbeth and McDulT , M. DoCassagnnc.
thus expounds tno unwritten laws of the
duel : "Never , except In case of your wife's
elopement , or ot your daughter's dishonor ,
or of violence olfcred to your mother , or ot
having your face slapped , should you bo
placed at twenty paces from your
antagonist with -the right to take
deliberate aim. This becomes no
longer a battle , nor a combat , but simply n
double murder , and you might just as Well
adopt the Chinese custom of disembowling
yourself. "
This Is not the opinion , however , of M.
Henri Rochfort , nor ot M. Anotolo do la
Forge , who says the public will , after all ,
know the very simple conclusion that Gen
eral Boulanger wished the duel to have an
apparent result , whllo M. Ferry was deter
mined to limit the affair to a duel without
danger.
The weather Is cool , bright and bracine.
The boulevards nro oveillowlng with tourists
and country cousins , while thu true Parisians ,
in gaily tinted flannels nnd straw hats , tilt
from Tronvillo to Vichy nnd from Alx to
Dieppe , but always perch a day or two in this
gay and delightful capital , which Is now bap-
tucd "Paris les Bains. "

LONDON , August 0. [ Now York Herald
Cable Social to the BKK. | Ono of the
many interesting features ot the Angus !
magnilr.es Is an article entitled "The EIIJ
llsh and American Press , " by Arnot Read ,
In two previous articles ho had compared
the provincial nnd London press. The pres
ent article argues that Americans are the
moro assiduous newspaper readers. To the
United States' population of BO.000.000 he
counts 11,000 newspapers and periodicals ,
but In the United Kingdom 40,000 only ,
Ho claims that "the English press belongs tc
letter writers but the American to the re
porter , who tills up the American papir. Ii
Is largely his stutf that sells it , and as a con
sequence his services are much better pah
than these of English reporters. That Is t
commercial necessity. ills services arc
marketable nnd have this value that on <
smart man Is worth twenty who are not sc
hero In England. The habit of note
taking and of only note taking reduces all tc
n * dead level ot small remuneration. 1
the English newspaper proprietor wore tc
pay 1,215 a year to reporters he would bo i
fool. The same services would bo had for i
mere fraction of money. On the other side
such salaries are frequently paid. "
He concluded as follows : "On the whole
the difference between the journals of thi
two sections of the English speaking raci
may bo justly traced to the nationa
difference between the older anc
newer civilization. Each may copy from thi
other. That Is to sonio extent being done ,
but 1 fear not In the most hopeful fashion
The f utnrrt uf both Will depend largely 01

KICKING ON THE VERDICT ,
The Poblio Dissatisfied With the Punish

WAS JURYMAN CLARK CROOKED ?
Probabilities That the Convicted Men
Will Take Their Medicine , FearIng -
Ing a Worse Dose If Given
a Second Trial.
The Convicted ItoodlorB.
CHICAGO , August 0. ( Special Telegram to
the UEK.I The public seems to be trying
hard to content Itself with the verdict In the
big boodle case , yet the longer , i\n J more
thoroughly It Is considered the less satisfac
tory It seems. The evtdcnceDclcnrly showed
that tlio defendants had exacted money right
and left from everybody they had dealt with
fur the county , and although It was not as
clearly .shown as It might have been that the
sums thus exacted were made good through
the Increased prices paid for goods puichased ,
yet sucli was the fact. Opposed to the moun
tains of evidence of their conniption , the defendants
fondants simply offered their own unsup
ported denials and the testimony of several
personal friends as to tholr private charac
ters. All the boodlers , nnd especially Com
missioner McCarthy , seem to have had a linn
friend In Juryman Clark.
Said Mr. Grlnnell to a icportor to-day :
"Tho verdict was a surprise to me. The de
fendants should all have gone to the peni
tentiary. "
"Did you hitvo any doubts as to Clark , the
recalcitrating juryman who saved 'Buck'
McCarthy , when you put him on the jury'.1"
"No , not at the time , of course ; but 1 be
gan to have my doubts of him during the
last ten days. 1 want to say further that the
eleven jurors who stood out for conviction
against Clark have rendered an Inestimable
service to the state and to Cook county.
Clark is a man who thinks ho knows boinc-
thlnir , and thinks ho can Handle himself ,
and ho thought ho could handle the jury ,
liut ho couldn't. The fact remains that they
collectively proved that they had more brains
than ho had , and compelled him to render a
verdict of guilty. "
"Do 1 think there will bo an appeal ? 1
suppose there will. Certainly there will.
They and their friends outside will leave no
stone unturned to secure that. "
Although "Uuck" McCaOthy had a friend
on the jury through whose Inlluence ho got
oil with a lighter sentence , ho is not yet out
of the woods by any means. There are
still nineteen Indictments hanging over his
head , some of them charging him with
graver crimes than that for which ho has
lieen convicted In this case. States Attorney
Urinnell has told him to his face that ho
would rather have seen some of the others
escape from the penitentiary sentence than
him , and although the stnto attorney's olllce
decline at present to enlighten tlio public as
to what they Intend to do , it Is pretty gen
erally understood that one of the cases of
bribery or subornation of perjury will bo
pushed against the big commissioner from
the town of Lake.
Nothing definite could bo ascertained from
any quarter to-day concerning the motion
tor a new tilal except that there was no like
lihood of Its being at this term of court , and
It is quite possible it may go over till the Oc
tober term. It will take a considerable time
to ijet the record ready , nnd while that Is
being done those ot tlio defendants who have
got oil on a line will have an opportunity to
consider whether It will not bo better for
them to pay their money and let the matter
drop. There is no likelihood that Judge
Jamleson willcranta new trial , and piose-
cutltig an appeal would probably cost them
as much as paying the line , and even if
they did succeed In their ap
peal they would still have the
expense nnd the terrors of a new trial staring
them in the face. They will probably decide
that discretion is the better pirt of valor and
take their medicine. It is believed that tlio
boodlers In the county jail nro weakening
and have begun to lose talth in tlio assur
ances of their legal advisers as to the cer
tainty of a reversal of the verdict by tlio
supreme court. Comparatively uneducated
as most of these men are they are possessed
of n certain amount of ' 'horse sense , " and
scored , vituperated and righteously abused
and convicted as they have been , oven their
rhinoceious-liko hides refuse to submit to the
ordeal ot a second running- the gauntlet.
They are conscious of nothing to gain by a
new trial save the possibility of celling the
limit at three years. A now trtnl would only
result in further suffering for them and
a eoiresponding increase In attorneys' fees.
Under these circumstances the boodlers
have re.solved , so rumor says , If they can
make arrangements with the state's attor
ney , to take their medicine quietly , provided
Mr. Grlnnell will agree not to proceed against
them on the other Indictments now pending
and on each of which they can be tried sep
arately at the expiration of the term
of punishment allotted for the sev
eral olfenses. An appeal to the supreme
couit would mean an additional term
of from three to six months , there
fore It is said they are seri
ously thinking of going to Jollet
as soon as possible to begin serving out their
terms rather than to further enricli their
lawyers. With good conduct their two years'
terms would expire in twenty months.
There are sixty-eight boodier Indictments
as yet untried , and In all of them at least one
of the men recently tried Is defendant. Most
of thorn are , however , for conspiracy , and
In these , If the states attorney should go on
with their trial , the plea will be sot up that
the defendants can not twice bo put In
jeopardy for the same ulTunse.
This afternoon Sute's Attorney Grlnnell
called up thp motion tor a new tilal for tlio
convicted boodlers. In doing so he stated
that they had not yet had the decency to
hand In tholr resignations , and ho demanded
that they do so at once , it seems that the
refusal on the part ot the boodlers to resign
may , under certain circumstances , produce a
dead lock that will prevent tlm levying of
any taxes for the county. The conviction of
an infamous crime makes vacant the olllce
held by n criminal , but tlio law is so framed
that tlio county board must declare that tlio
vacancy exists , and without the eo-onoratlon
ot tlio Itoodlors this can hardly bo done.
After much discussion the counsel for the
dofens' ) succeeded In getting matters de
layed until Monday with the understandliu
that If the boodlers resign in the meantime ,
the time o argulns the motion for a new trial
would bo put elf till ScoUiiuber. The
boodlers who were tner ly lined withdrew
tholr motion for a new trial. Commissioner
Loydmi was allowed to go to his homo in
charge of two deputies this afternoon , on the
representation of his family physician that
Mrs. Leydeu was dying.
This afternoon the late Commlsslonci
Klehm , chairman ot the county board , ap
peared in the county clerk's ofllce and ten
dered his resignation. About the same time
Commissioner It. S. McLauchlln sent foi
County Attorney Bliss and Informed him
that ho would not spend another dollar on
his defense. " 1 will go Into coiut , " said he ,
"at the lirst opportunity and ask final sen
tence bo passed and that I bo sent to prison. "
llo then handed Mr. Bliss his resignation ,
This evening Commissioners Casselman
and Oliver lemoved all their property from
the county board looms and announced
that they would attend no more meetings as
commissioners. 11. A. Jones , formerly chlel
clerk at both the asylum and the Inllrmarj
and who has furnished valuable aid to the
state in prosecuting the boodle cases , tell ;
an Interesting story or Ids experiences. Pur
ing the three years ho was In the county em
ploy it never cost more than 815-1,000 n yeai
to run both the asylum and the Infirmary ,
Last year , under the management ot the
boodle itang , It cost over -00,000 to run tlu
asylum alone. The first crooked worli
Jones discovered was that ot Wllllan
K'jlge , the milk contractor , who tlu
cletk discovered , was dollvering milk thai
showed CO per cent , of water. Jones refused
to accept It. and In a few days the management
mont ot that business was taken out ol hi !
hands. .Kolzo thereafter delivered awll
milk to the paupers and cream lor the bood
lers' tables. ,1 on ess' experience was that n <
mm could to honest ana hold a Dillon undo :
the gang during tho'past four or five years. Ho
tells a disgusting stoty ot the manner In
which the meatcontractor , Dipper , abused his
contracts , lit every load of meat sent out
Hipper would have "corned beef. " This
sometimes consisted of pigs' noses , then
bones , scraps ot mutton and other meat
which would spoil on his hands. Kipper
would throw this stuff Into flour barrels ,
sprinkle salt on It and call It corned
beef. Mr. Jones sent back two
loads of It which was positively
rotten and suddenly found himself dis
charged without warning or reason. Ho

WASHINGTON NK W9.
A. Rctnnrknble Military Tribunal.
WASHINGTON , August 0. ( Special to the
BF.K.I Next Monday will bo the anniversary
of ono of the most remarkable military
trials ever recorded In this or any other
country. Twenty-four years aio there were
Imprisoned In the old tobacco warehouse In
Itlctimond known as Llbby prison , a party
of United Stntes olllcors. Some were of the
regular service and some of the volunteer
nrmy. Amen ? them was a daring fellow
named Strait , who Is now quietly engaged
In the book business In a small town In In
diana. At that time he had planned n
wholesale escape from the prison , the capture
ot the gmiid and the battery outside the
walls , nnd the subsequent release of the
prisoners on Belle Isle , just across the river.
The p'an ' further contemplated the burning
of Richmond and-tho slaving of the otlicials
of the confederate government There were
but nine ofllcers In tlm plot and the prospects
were that It would prove successful. Hut
one of tlm ofllcers bfitrayed the scheme and
the plot was nipped In the hud. The traitor
was known and Strait Insisted that ho should
bo tried by a court martial composed
of the roL'Ular ollicers In the prison.
The court" was organized In regular
form. During the entire proceedings , which
lasted hut n few minutes , Stialt was busy
making a rope out of some pieces of calico.
When a veidict had been decided upon ho
said : "Gentlemen , you have found the pris
oner guilty , ami of course there can bo but
ono sentence , that of death. 1 will execute
the sentence. "
Among the party was an ofllcor of one of
the cavalry re. 1 men Is named Louis Thomp
son. He said that while the accused was un
doubtedly Ruilty , the court was not a legal
one and that It could not eiifoico Its sen
tences. If the traitor was hanged his exe
cutioners would bo guilty ot murder. Ho
proposed that the record of the court should
bo kept until one of the party escaped , when
It should bo sent on to Washington. He
would not allow the man to be hanged and
would sit up all night with him to protect
him If necessary. Straltwas determined that
the sentence of the court should bo carried
out , and swore that he would hang the vll-
Han down the hatchway , But Thompson sat
by his side till night and saved his life. The
following day ho was removed from the
quarters which ho was occupying and shortly
afterwards ho was released. 'Ihe record of
the court was subsequently forwarded to
Washington and Secretary Stanton caused
him to be dismissed front the service. He
was afterwards restored by Andy Johnson
and Is .said to bo still in the service. Those
who know of the Incident will not tell his
name. Thompson was killed In one of Cus-
ter's Indian campaigns. The only other one
of the party who Is knowu to be still in the
service is a cavalry oUlcer named Hamilton ,
who Is on a frontier post
The Trials of Consuls.
WASIIIXOTO.V , August 0. [ Special to the
BKK.I "No ono not conversant with the
facts , can form any idea of thn trials that
besot a consul of the United States In the1
largo manufacturing towns of Europe , " said
Governor I'ortor , assistant Secretary of state ,
to your correspondent to-dny. "In those
largo manufacturlnb cltlos , " ho continued ,
"tho population Is , ot course , largely made
(
up of manufacturers and merchants doing
business with the United Stains. Owing to
the fnci that man ) of our tariIf charges are
based upon the values of the coeds Imported ,
the.se merchants lire naturally anxious to
make it appear that their goods are sold at
ligures which are really giently below the
market prices. The seal of the consul Is re
quired at the bottom of each Invjlce and that
is where the difficulty comes in. An honest
consul , and a majority of our consular olli-
cers nro hoiicst , who is anxious
to do his duty to the government ,
will take care to post himself thoioughly on
the market values of all the goods exported
from tlm district In which ho is stationed.
Then when the exporter makes out an In
voice In which ho has undervalued his goods
ho finds that the consul will not ceitlty to
the coiredness ot the statements , as n con
sequence the consul In trying to do his duty
to the government which employs his Incurs
the enmity of the men among whom ho must
live. This enmity breaks , but in all sorts of
petty annoyances , and If tlio consul is n sen
sitive man ho linds It very hard to bear.
Many instances could bj cited in which con
suls and their families are ostracised and ig
nored by everyone in the city In which they
reside. All because they are oiuaged in
doing their duty. Within a very few months
.several excellent men In the service have
asked to bo transferred because they could
not stand the treatment to which they and
their families are subjected. Within the
past few years our consuls have been much
more rigorous In examine the Invoices pre
sented to them for seal and signature. The
result has been the saving of many millions
ot dollars to the tioasury , but the consuls
thomselver have not had their compensation
Increased. "

cabled Admiral Luce , saying : " 1 presume

Fatal Launching of the Steatnor Wolf at

A TREACHEROUS COAL DOCK.
It Gives Way and Throws a Crowd

Arc Killed and Nine
Fatally Injured ,
From G.iyoty to Mourning.
MILWAUKEE , WIs. , August 0. By n pccu
liar accident at the launching of the hugo
steamer , William II. Wolf , at Wolf & David
son's ship yard , this afternoon , three persons
were killed outright , sevcial others totally
Injured , about twenty badly hurt , and a largo
number of others less seriously Injured.
About ono thousand people had gathcied to
witness the launch. The docks weio lined ,
vessels were crowded and every scow and
lumber pile was black with spectators. Di
rectly opposite the cradled vessel was the
largo coal dock of the Northwestern Fuel
company. It Is n roofed dock with huge
derricks for unloading co.U. Upon the root
of this coal shed n largo number
of people had assembled. The view from
that point was a line one , as the vessel moved
dliectly toward the dock. As the Wolf
struck water her port bulge was burled deeply
In the black water of the slip , then she re
covered and rolled heavily to port. The
water displaced rose like a tidal wave and
swept over the coal deck and un toward Us
roof , causing n cloud of cqal dust and spray.
The supports of the docks wcro Insulltclcnt
to withstand the force of the wave and about
forty feet of shod went down with Its living
freight. Instantly the shed went down
nnd there was wild excitement on . the deck
of the steamer. A scone of Indescribable
confusion ensued , but a few cool-headed
iwople at once set to work to rescue the people
ple thrown Into the river nnd release those
burled In the debris of the platform. The
patrol wagons wore summoned and express
wagons were turned Into ambulances and
the dead nnd Injured were carried away.
Owing to the fact that ninny cases of Injuries
were not reported , thu unfortunates being
hurried homo In carriages by relatives nnd
friends , It Is Impossible to ascertain the full
extent of the accident. As far as known the
list of dead nnd Injured embraces the follow
ing :
Eo SiK.iiir.L : ! , aged fifteen , killed outright ,
head crushed nnd badly mangled.
CHAS. WII.WAC. twenty-two years old ,
killed by Injury to head and back.

Gihson , the deposed prlmo minister of the
Hawaiian kingdom , who was tried on the
charge of robbing thu public treasury and
who escaped from the Island after ills ac
quittal , arrived hero from Honolulu on the
brig John D. Spreckles. The legislature
adopted a now constitution , which the king
was torced to sign , and which provides that
ho shall bo coniniander-in-chief of the army
and navy , and of all other military lorces of
the kingdom ; but ho shall never proclaim
war without the consent of the legislature ,
and no military or naval forces shall bo or
ganized except by the authoiity of the legis
lature. The king cannot ho sued or held to
account In any court or tribunal of the king
dom. The cabinet shall consist of a minis
ter of forek-n ntfnlrs , minister of finance
nnd attorney general , nnd they shnll
be his majesty's special advisers in thoexoe-
utlv > ) aflairs of the kingdom , and they shall
bo ex-ollleio members of his council of Btato
that shall bo appointed and comlinued by tlio
king and shall bo removed by him upon a
vote of want of eonlidenco passed by n ma-
jniityof all the elective members of the leg
islature or upon conviction of felony , and no
removal shall have effect unless It bo coun
tersigned by a member of the cabinet , who ,
bv that signature , makes himself responsi
ble. The legl.-lativo power of tlio kingdom
Is vested In the kin * and the legislature ,
which shall consist of nobles and representa
tives sitting together. The legislative body
will assemble bl-ennlally.
Walter L. Gibson , ex-premier of the Ha
waiian kingdom , wns seen to-day by an As
sociated press reporter. Hn thought the new
constitution has some ndmlrnblo features ,
still It was what might bo called a "shotgun"
constitution. The missionary party tof for
eigners. Gibson declares , meant to take his
lifo , but the now cabinet Jovldently felt that
would be dangerous , ho having been so long
nn intimate ft lend of the native clement.
Ho sav.s the case against him was not
pressed and that ho notified the cabinet ho
was going to leave the Island to remove
n suspicion of IntrUuc : but the master of
the brig Spreckels claims that ( ill/son was
spirited out by ftiends who wished to save
his life. Gibson further said the United
States government has designs In the Pacific
which will probably bo revealed shortly. Ha
said this government would not llko tlio
course atlairs had taken on the Islands , llo
would not explain this remark. Com
ments In Hawaiian papers re-
colsed here Indicate that the now cabinet
will repudiate the new loan recently effected
In England , the new premier claiming that
the bonds are Illegal for various reasons , it
Is said that the now premier and hl.s asso
ciates have aliendy been warned by tlio Brit
ish consul that tholr plins will meet with the
disapproval ot the British government , and
will have to bo altered to suit the wishes ol
these Who have invested their capital In good

BKIU.IN , August 0. The Interview bet ween
Emperor William nnd Francis Joseph nt
Gastoln will bo deprived of much significance
by the nhsenro of the guiding statesmen of
Imperial politics. The umperois will ex
change views on the present position of the
Austro-Gcrman alliance. Bui the main sub
jects of the conference will bo the candida
ture of Prlnco Ferdinand to the throne of
Bulgarin , nud the Impending deposi
tion of the Insane king of Bavaria.
The medical attendants of Emperor William
say his condition Is Improving hourly Binco
his arrival at Gasteln , nnd people who heard
adverse stories regarding his health l.avo
been greatly surprised to see him walking
about alert and erect.
The relations of Germany with Russia do
not Improve. The press of Moscow and St.
Petersburg make the death of Kntkotr the oci
caslon of fresh outbursts ot hatred toward
Germany.
The bitterness of feeling toward Franco Is
aggrcvatcd under fresh Instances of German
"balling. " The stated case Is exciting much
anger. This was the closing of a factory
for the manufacture of German toys , belong
ing to Welrsbach brothers and situated at
Enibormeln In the department of Moselle.
The workmen were given but three days no-
tlco of their expulsion. It Is reported that
the delay in Bismarck's departure for Kis
singer is duo solely to the gravl'y of the sit
uation with France. The chancellor Is mak
ing the Wclisbach affair the subject ot
diplomatic communications , tending to
bring French provocations to a critical
stage. Regarding French railway
employes expelled at Avrlcourt , It appears
that these men , while working at French
railway stations , lived on thu Gciman side of
the frontier , eluding social dlitles tor per
sonal purposes. The German authorities
told them to move Into their district and
gave the married men tliico mouths and sin
gle men ono month to leave.
An amendment to the constitution , Involv
ing the question of deposing the king on the
ground of incurable Insanity will bo submitted
In the Bavarian diet In September. It Is un
true that the ex-Giand Duke of Hesse will
be a candidate for the throne of Holland on
the death of the King. In such an event the
queen would become the regent for her
daughter Princess Wllhelmlo , and should
the latter die the crown would pass to the
Grand Duchess of Saxe-Mlemer-Elsenacu.

the intention of the Americans to solzo

such measures would be taken , In the face ot
