[ New Vork Herald Cable-Special to Tun BBB.1 On Friday night there was generally a rather lively time In the house of commons. If a battle royal' had uonn going on during the weak , it wound up that night. Wo do not like to have a stale old fight hanging over our minds over Sunday. Then again it must bo observed that important events usually happen at the end of the week. Why that should bo BO , unless to spite the weakly papers which nro published on Saturday , I no not know. Chance or fate or what you will , seems to have decreed that the Sunday paper should bo ouo of the necessities of civilized mankind. Whether ono hears a sermon or two , more or less , will not prob ably make any material difference in the long run , but to miss one's Sunday paper is to remain twenty-four hours In a state of perilous ignorance. It is with a view to this no doubt that events hurry on to settlement at the close of the week. All the same if It had not been for the Kensington election , dullness would now have covered us like n wet blanket. Friday night , for hours and hours , the dis cussion on education dragged itself along. It was exceedingly important , I was assured , but so horribly tedious that it was impossblo to sit It out. Therefore , as wo wandered gloomily around the lobbies , or took a pull nt our cigars In the smoking room , or watched n game of chess , or wont to sloop In the library , there would have been a general movement homeward , only wo were waiting for the verdict of Kensington. At live minutes past 111 saw Dr. Clark , the member for Caithness , running ns hard ns ho could across the outer lobby , from the telegraph ofllco. Away I sot chase uftor him nnd picked him uo just as ho passed two po licemen who keep out Int rndcra. "How has It gonol" I asked. "Six hundred and thirty majority for Beaufoy , " replied the exultant clerk. In another moment ho was surrounded by nn oxoltcd crowd of members , a portion of which speedily overflowed into the house it solf. The speaker was on the watch for it , nnd with the sternest of look cried : "Order. " Several times if there had been a full house , it is most probable that this would not have quelled the excitement , but learn ing the. bans insldo , who were prosing with nil steam up had effectually cleared the place , thcro was not n couple of a score members present and so the invading crowd produced scarcely uny sensation and soon re treated into the lobby , where It managed lo got up n i hccr. In the tUdst of a group stood Dr. Tanner , adorned with a gilt shamrock which St. Pat rick himself might have envied and a huge favor. Ho smiled sweetly at every conserva tive ho met , offering to let thorn look nt the telegram , but they seemed to have no curios ity on the subject. Presently the irrepress ible Tanner who.ls out on ball and who is human enough to make the most of freedom , walked into the house and in the balmiest manner asked Mr. Goschcn if ho could give any news regarding the Kensington election. Mr , Goschen looked n shade or two greener than usual nnd ildgcttcd about on his seat. Tanner oucu more invited him to come out Into the open , but the chancellor of the exchequer sank Into a heap , perhaps congra tulating himself on the fact that when the conservatives foun'd a scat for him their choice fell on the very safest of all London. His withers were unstrung. JIho Irish cluoftaln , Mr. Partial ! , was not present. Ho Is no lover of crowds and scenes. None of the Gladslonlan leaders had taken the trouble to come down , but they , of coursot got the news at homo , nnd It must have helped to cheer Gladstone , who has looked rattier raw and unwell alt the week. A line tonlo to him will this election bo. Homo rulers have a perfect right to re- Jolco over tholr victory , for It Is undeniably a severe- blow to the government. It will causa conservative London members to shako in their shoes. Knormous exertions wcro used to secure the success of the minis terialist candidate. The whole art and Bcienca of electioneering were exhausted In his favor. From every platform electors wAo Invited to vote lor the conservative candidate ou the grouud that ho was related to Lord Salisbury. Mr. BaUour was nol quite wiseto stake so much on the contest A personal appeal of this kind was rathoi narrow. This strange battle ground was however , deliberately chosen , and it is ab surd for any ono to deny that the do feat ol the ministerial forces Is a political event pf the very first magnitude. I1 will give to the Gladstonlans u now cnurg : in fighting for the vacancies to which I re fcrrod laat week : It is likely that they wll succeed In illllng- that also , so I am ussurec by fie people on the spot. What are wo to conclude from this ! Tim the tide Is turning in favor of Gladstone' homo rule scliomo , or that the ministry 1 losing jwpularltyl It may bo that there Is i little Icuvcn of both at work. People an getting to bollpvo that Gladstone would , if In had another chance , bring In a different ser of bill , free from objections. It has ma 1 them nt leant think that boiaethlng must b dyne for Irpjand moro than has been done Now , conservatives huvo made up thel minds nut to do anything thin session at an , ritu On that account , | to a great extent thot > o liberals who abstained from voting n the last election uri > returning to their ol nllflflancc.

The Inevita ble result must bo that a good many scats will change hands before nil is over. You will see the effect of the Kensington election next week , in parliament for the attorney general and the Times. Loud nnd flcrca will sound the battle cries towards Thursday. Thcro Is to bo no pence this session for the ministry. The Gladstonlans are determined to have the scalps of Webster and Walter.

Moro In tlio Market Thnn Can Find Purchasers. fCopi/rfo'il ' ldS3tiuJimM Qonlnn ntnnttt. ] LONDON' , March 10. [ Now York Herald Cable Special to Tnn HER. ] Mr. Samuel Untcrracyor , of New York , who has just successfully negotiated the Frank Jones Brewing company's shares through Sir Samuel - uol Scott & Co. , who issued Bass & Co.'s. was scon last night by a Herald correspon dent. Ho said : "This Jones brewery Is not a party to any trust in breweries , but nn in dependent transaction. All this talk ono sees In American papers about trusts on the part of Englishmen to control the breweries of America is such wild nonsense it is In- crcdiblo to English capitalists that Americans believe it" "About seven 01 eight months ago a Now York brewery company was organized in London to buy part of the shares of two American breweries. The shares were of- forrcd for public subscription but English people did not seem to have much confidence in the enterprise and nearly all the subscrip tions that did not coma from the United States came from Dublin , Cork , Belfast nnd other cities In Ireland. The shares where bought by small shop keepers in Ireland in many instances in lots of 10 each. The Irish seemed to have moro confidence in American sureties and the sharonolders in that company who were not Americans wcro Irish. These are the only American breweries thus far sold abroad and in each case the owners retain n largo Interest. The Idea that any syndicate of capitalists Is engaged buying up breweries which has been circulated by n lot of Irro- sponslb'lo brokers representing uo ono is absurd. All the capitalists do is to offer the property to the public. They don't want any brewery's shares. "Since I have been hero fifty American breweries have boon offered to various houses with which I am associated. Most of them nro from Chicago and the west. Chicago seems to bo the most diligent in efforts to sell Its breweries. I know at least seven breweries there that have been hawked about this market. In many instances brokers from America offer property hero without the knowledge or consent of owners. I know this has repeatedly been done in respect to breweries in New York , St. Louis and Mil waukee. These offers are accompanied by the most extravagant statements as to their assets nnd prospects , and in a few instances I know brokers to go so far as to secure the sending of English exports to examine ac counts without securing customers for tlio properties. I have been , often asked why ' the enterprises are not floated In America. The answer is Americans are yet a largo in- como-loving class , most of whom arc well-to- do , have their money Invested in enterprises in which they nro engaged. "Again wo have no recognized medium of reaching the public , such as in Europe. In our country no onn would dream of looking in the papers for investments , nnd besides that wo have no limited llubility act , such as protects Investors who subscnbo to tbo capital upon the faith of a statement contained in a pros pectus. I hope wo will soon come to that pass for I regard industrial enterprise as ono of the safest and most lucrative forms of in vestment. It is simply the carrying out of co-operative plan. In London , for instance , the capital of a company that furnishes bread to the greatest part of the city is di vided among the middle classes in shares of 1 each. In that way the consumer gets back by way of dividend part of his payment for bread. I see by the papers' n great many breweries are availing themselves of the present fever to disclaim in very loud terms their Intentions of selling , and prominent among I sco many who tried to soil and failed. _ An Insurance Fight. ST. JosiU'it , Mo , , March 10. [ Special Telegram to Tun Sue. ] The insurance companies of St. Joseph have expelled the Phoenix , of Brooklyn , from the local com pact for permitting an agent nt Omaha to write an insurance policy in St. Joseph on the grain elevator belonging to Gregg Bros. , and located on the south side of the city. The policy was written for 510,000 , and cut the agents hero , James Hull & Co. , out of the commission. The special agent was In the city yesterday trying to adjust matters , but failed , ns the board of underwriters , after considering the matter , decided to sus pend the company from the compact. It is thought by the different agents that the com pany can be prohloltcd from doing any busi ness in St. Joseph In the board , but cannot bo prohibited from writing insurance at their own board rate , which are nearly always lower than the board rate.

The Germans I/CBS Arrogant. sfO , l > y n'etttrn Associated APIA , Samoa , Mnrch 2. Per steamer Zcnlandla , San Frnncisco , March 10. Dur ing the past month the German authorities , both consular and naval , have maintained a state of inactivity. This state of affairs dates buck to the arrival of the steamer " \Vninui with dispatches for the Gorman con sul on January 23mid no doubt Is the result of orders then received. The declaration of a state of wnr In the Samoan Islands has be come a dead letter , whllo military oc cupation of Apia , which the declara tion of martial law would seem to have Implied , has no existence save the maintenances of a strong guard at the Gor man consulate. The guard Is still kept up at the American and English consulates. The German consul has made repeated avcrturcs to Mataafn looking toward an ad- ustmcnt of the quarrel and a conclusion of peace ; but the terms proposed always em bodied a strong Gorman Interest in the 'uturc administration of affairs , to which slataafa declares ho will under no circum- itanee consent. Ho stays entrenched in camp and 'awaits the arrival of Admiral limbcrly , having full faith In the support of .ho United States. Tnmascse , with forces nsw reduced by desertions to about six hun dred warriors , still occupies a largo fort at jUtuannu. There has been no collision bo- Aveen the opposing forces for a long time. On February S a small skirmish occurred , In which one of Tamascsb's strongest support ers , a high chief from Savoy , was killed. On February 3 the English wnr vessel HoyalCap- tain Handek , was relieved by II. M. S. Cal- lope , Captain Kane , much to the satisfaction of the English residents and consul. Not only the English residents in Samoa , but the Now Zealand press ns well , severely ccnsuro aptaln Hand for his dilatory and lukewarm actions during the recent troubles. Early in the month Captain Fritz announced that the American and English consular courts were considered by him as open for a hearing of causes , despite his proclamation of martial law , reserving for himself , however , administration of police. This , by acknowledging the ability of these courts to perform their civil functlo undis turbed , virtually abrogates the necessity for the establishment of martial law and gives a rather forcible aspect to that arbitrary act on the part of the German commander. Another fact proving that the Germans recognized their original stand to be un tenable Is found in the reissue of thn Samoan Times , the English newspaper which was suspended by the German consul as a dan gerous organ. The reappearance of the paper was without permission , but no comment has been made on it by the .German consul. On February 5 the steamer Lebock left hero for Sydney , carrying with her Bran- dels , the premier of Tamaseso , who for a long thno has been' concerned in the trouble. It is rumored that ho has been ordered homo to explain his conduct. Tlio Gorman war vessel Ebor , which was sent to Auckland , ostensibly to communicate with Ucrlln , has returned : The dispatches which she un doubtcdly brjught , but the tenor of which Is unknown , have not chanced the condition of affairs. The United States steamer Van dalia arrived on February 23. The arrival of the flagship Trenton was anxiously awaited , us it was hoped that Admiral Kim- borjy's instructions would empower him to speedily terminate the uncertainty 09 to the outcome of the struggle. Mutaafa is Arm in his belief of ultimately receiving the support of the Unltod States government , and reiterated his determina tion to do nothing until the admiral's arrival. Tamnscso , with a force weakened by deser tion , has sank into a secondary factor and indeed has almost entirely disappeared from the sccno. Americans and Englishmen still accuse the German officials of intercepting their mall matter and reading the contents for informa tion of their government. It is thought that hereafter ono American man-of-war will meet the mail steamer at Tutullln. The American bark Constitution arrived at Apia on February 2. The United States ship Nipslc had gene to Tultilln , and on the arrival of the Constitution in port , a boat's crew from'tho Gorman corvette Olga came alongside , demanded papers , and announced an Intention to search the vessel for contra band material. Captain Colley , of the Con stitution , had only eight men aboard , but Informed the Germans that the Constitution was an American ship and that if they attempted to board her they would bo fired upon. After some parleying the Gormuns withdrew. The Con stitution was driven upon a roaf and wrecked during a severe gale a low days later , and the crow of the Olga , which ship was lying close by , tendered no assistance1 lloats from the Nipslc , which was a mlla away , rescued the croiv of the Constitution , Cnrvcr Wins by n Scratch , CINCINNATI , O. , Mnrch 10.

[ Now York Herald able Special to Tun BKE. ] The chamber of deputies and the senate simultaneously authorized the prosecution of Lnguorro , inlsnlnt , Turquot and Nuquct. Legal pro ceedings against the leaders of the LIguo dcs Patriotcs have boon Instituted without delay. The prosecution nnd action of the govern ment nro dlversly appreciated by the Paris ircss. Boulangist organs have lssuo-1 a strong protest in which a certain amount of anxiety Is apparent. This , however , was to bo oxpectcd nnd was only natural under the circumstances. Among that portion of the press whoso position is sufficiently indopondonj ; to allow , hem to discuss the measure impartially two currents of opinion have manifested them selves. On ono hand It is argued that the pro ceedings Instituted against the liquc are not suftlclcntly authorized by existing laws. On the other hand it is asserted that the inop- lortuno and Impolitic article 201 of the coda ind these that follow relating to illegal as sociations have long been a dead letter. There are , at the present time , numerous associations in Franco that have not boon authorized. It is therefore manifestly unjust n n certain sense to proceed against an as sociation that has a right to expect equal tolerance with others. To this it may bo added that the decrees of [ 843 on the subject of secret societies cannot DO applied in the present case lor tlio reason that the Liguo dcs Patriotes always existed ) penly , and far from being a secret organiza tion always made enough noisoto make itself nnd purposes known to everybody. Besides , such persecutions , politically speaking , often defeat tbo end of those who order them. They have in view universal suffrage and cun novcr be intimidatedpr _ .turned aside by Ijras ntlons.'bf.ftUia , sort "On the "contrary , the Vigorous law that may bo directed against the Liguo dos'Patrlotcs nnd the leaders of Lhe. Boulangist party may only have the of- tcctof drawing the sympathies of the public byenabling * them to poise as victims of un- lustprsoocutlon. Whllo most conso-vativo organs nro ex pressing themselves in this sense , many of the republican ] o urn air are of the diametri cally contrary opinion. They give unqualified approval to the line of conduct the govern ment is pursuing , nnd point out that the ar ticles of the code under which the prosecution Is to bo instituted have never been repealed. They insist that existing circumstances authorize their application for the purpose of defending re publican institutions. According to these who hold this opinion the Liguo dos Datriotes has repeatedly shown Itself ready to go to any length , oven to resort to violence , It has an army of moro than twenty thousand men , which it has been organizing itnolf. Paris i ? ready to rise nt the first signal. The government cannot allow such an organiza tion to exist without imperilling its own ex istence. From a political standpoint , the measures of the government may bo re garded as the commencement of a moro gen eral nnd detcrn&ned action. The Judicial proceedings that have b on commenced have been partof the object of collecting evidence on which may bo founded un indictment acralnst Boulangor and the leaders of the Boulangist party , to bo tried by the senate sitting at a high court of Justico. Such n plan attributed to the ministry looks much ns though there existed a * tacit understand ing between the cabinet and a majority of the chamber that the ministry bo spared all parliamentary annoyance and allowed to con tinue In power , In order that it may , during the few months that intervene between cow and the elections , apply onorgutio , not to say violent , measures against the Bimlanglst party , and against its chiefs , including the ' brave general himself.

There was n splendid audience to greet the earns. The grounds wcro crowded with bo- ween 7.000 nnd 8,000 people. The weather vas cool , but desplto this discouraging cir- iumstanco there were nearly ono thousand ttdios in the nudlonco. Among the spoctn- ors were Sir H. J. Seburyn Ibbotson , nnd Mr , Theobald , members of parliament , and many members of the Essex bounty Cricket club and tholr adics. The trains from the Liverpool street tatlou to Loyton Avcro crowded with people rom 2 to 4 o'clock who wcro on tholr way to ho game. Tlio gnmo was a one-sided affuir nftcr the third Inning. In the fourth , Chicago by stiff batting pllod up six runs and had the game won from that thno out. Crnno kept putting slow balls over the pinto , vhleh worked his support so hard that Han- on , who was determined on winning the gnmo "kicked , " out Crnno refused .o . incrc.iso his speed , and Chicago batted out her victory. Crane's failure to pitch his game , however , did not spoil the fun for the ipcctators. Tlioy evidently liked the heavy mttlng , to Judge from the applause they bo- towed upon every whack , and wcro loud In heir expressions of pralso of the lovely loldlng It necessitated. Chicago failed to jet a man further than second in the first In- ling , but scored two runs In the second on Burn's hit , nnd again in the sixth'tho "colts" jot In tholr worK , pounding Crane for a loine-run nnd five singles and a threo-bag- ror , and hanging six runs on the ilackboard. That was great fun for ho crowd , who were enthusiastic over the heavy cannonading and pretty base running. With this lead Chicago ceased her efforts , but Sullivan's three baggor nnd 'felffer's double netted another run In the sixth , while Ryan's homo run , hit with Burns ou second , brought in two moro runs in the ovcnth , and singles by Anson and Pfoffor n the eighth , posted the twelfth run of the wo. wo.Tho The All Americas started out the better , lanlbn led off with u single past short. Fo- jarty nnd Brown rapped out two moro. Then Carroll reached first in the play which ctlrcd Hanlons at the plate , and Woods rattling double to loft , sent Fogarty , Urown and Carroll homo. This was slick work In earnest and tickled the crowd Into loud huz zas , When the Chicagos began to bat Crane , lowever , the All Americas seemed to lese icart and the run getting thereafter was very scant. Crane said afterward that ho was saving limself for the long distance throwing con test , which was to occur after the game. After the conclusion of the , name Crane waste to have entered the long distance throwing contest with G. B. Banner , the champion of Australia , but Bonnor was sick , so Crane gave an exhibition , and .throw a base bal 124 yards and two feet , -aud'-n crickut ball 110 " yards and "four .Inches. - . , % ' , 'Tho teams rest't6"day7nnd"attcnd"tho ser vice at the Westminster Abboy.

Ilorr Schroder , progressist , expressed surprise hut the government made no reply , and nn- lounccd that his party would continue to op- lose exceptional laws. Herr Mayor said that ho national liberals had entered into no for- nal engagement us to future socialist legla- atlon. At Friday's sitting Dr. Wlndthorst com- ilalncd of the continual demand for money or military purposes. The estimates were finally referred to a committee of twcnty- DIIO , notwithstanding Herr Ulchtor'a cm- tliatic declaration that the house ought first o determine the sums to bo granted.

The Samoan conference Is not expected to ircsont formidable dillicultlcs. Slight doubts nro expressed ns to tlio attitude of America , mt the German government will do its ut- nest to prevent friction , nt the same tiuio maintaining Germany's full right to deal with the Snnoan robals. Confidences is felt tore that the peaceful disposition of all the hrcc powers will render an agreement cosy. iismarck ism now.iy inclined , in the present , state of European affairs , to bo drawn into tolonial disputes. The Vossischo Zeitung says : "It is to bo regretted that the irruotlon beyond the ocean has reached Its present extent und bitterness , and it is in a largo degree owing to the fault i of the Gorman ofllcials. But U flies beyond rcasonub'o expectation that' the conference will lead'to any'bttior coi\cluif6n than'that ihere hus boon a great deal of unnecessary heat imported into the dispute. > ' 'In addition to the now income tax , which Is said to bo the subject of dissension bo- , ; wcen Prince Bismarck and his colleagues , Minister Von Gosslcr disagrees with the chancellor on the question of the state grant ing financial support to the clorgy. The subject ' ject of discord between Minister Von Scholtz nnd Prince Bismarck is the currency ques tion. The former ad vacates a gold currency , whllo the latter favors bimetallism. An incident which 'occurred at the last meeting of the provincial council of Dauzlc would indicate a slight difference between 'no chancellor and Minister - tor Von Puttkamcr. Members of the coun cil reproached the brother of the latter for the wholesale expulsion of Poles which ho had ordered. Minister Von Puttkumer , in defending his brother , said that ho deplored the consequences of the expulsion "on economic grounds , but that ho was overruled by Prince Bismarck , who considered political Interests of greater importance. Th'o Tago- blatt remarks that , in view of the Incident , people will not bo disposed to place much confidence In ministerial declaration. The odlclul newspapers carefully abstain from comment on Servian affair * . It is re ported that the government intends to recall Count Von Bray from Belgrade , his intimacy with Milan making him unwelcome to the present radical government of Sorvla. Austria will also bo obliged to recall Dr. Hciifrclmullcr for the same reason. Advices from St. Petersburg nro that the czar has anvlsod ox-Quean Natalia not to return to Sorvla. but to arrange for period ical visits from her son at Odessa. The Cologne Gazette comments upon the marltod friendliness of the reception ac corded to Prince Nicholas , of Nassau , In royal circles during his visit to Berlin as a favorable sign of the good relations botwcon the house of Nassau and the Berlin court. Emperor William has accepted an invita tion to dine with Sir Edward Malot. who re turned to-day , at the English embassy at the end of next week. The Priuco of Wales Is expected In Berlin at Easter. Ho will puss a day tit Darmstadt on route. The Paris crisis nnd Servian affairs had a depressing effect on the bourse throughout the wnck. Only an nbumlunca of cheap money prevented a stampodo. The fovv In * vc.itors having an Interest in copper ulf.ilrH appear to have withdrawn in good time , but the heavy sales by Pans speculators doj pressed prices , except in the case of Russian securities.
