Feb. 1 ! ) . The committee to which
was referr-id the sectarian ( primary ) edu
cation bill , submitted by the government to
the Kclchstng , has , during the past week ,
the llrst week of Its sittings , dealt \vith
thirteen of the clauses of that measure , but
hm reserved consideration of the sections re
lating to questions of religion. These clauses ,
with the postponed sections , which form the
kernel of the measure , will ho taken up next
week , when It will bo seen whether the gov
ernment has the courngo to defy the popular
opposition , which Is led by the most eminent
men In Germany.
U'ho liberal coalition appears to have gained
nn advantage In the committee by securing
the passage of the proposal submitted by
Ilerr HIckert , rcanirmlng the principle of
state control of the schools. Minister ZodUt/
considered thai the declaration did not affect
the concessions of the state In the direction
ot clerical supervision , and ho offered no re
BUtanco to the amendment , which was only
opposed by the centrist , or cburch , party.
Ilorr Kickert uoxt tried to got the committee
to llx llvo hours weekly as the maximum
time to bo devoted to religious instruction.
On this practical question the conservatives
and centrists were allied , and they united to
ta bring about Its rejection. This Is regarded
as n bad omen for the success of any of the
other proposed modifications of the lollgious
rlnusos. The clericals gave notice of several
amendments giving the clergy oven greater
control than is now provided for in the bill.
Vigorous 1'rotrstw Kntcrcil ,
III the meanwhile the protests against the
measure grow In number and importance.
The municipal authorities of Berlin , bv a
Vote of r.lucty-flvo to fourteen , adopted a
petition to the landtag against the bill , and
the burgomasters of the Hhonish towns have
decided to protest against it. A great con
gress of the professors of Berlin , Hallo ,
Bonn , Gottlngcn and otherumvotslty towns
has been convened hero to puss an appeal to
the government to withdraw the measure.
At Frankfort-on-the-Maln the teachers
htivo been disseminating fierce attacks on the
bill , quoting rof. Vlrchow's phrase , that it
Is "disgraceful aberration of the human intellect
lect- " These teachers have been warned
that they will bop ut under the discipline-
110 law If they continue their ngrcssivo
criticism.
Public meetings have boon hold In many
populous centers of Prussia to protest against
tno bill , and oven conservative districts are
declaring In favor of modifications.
IBJ jit Ian Allulrs ,
v The joint movements ot the Drtebund's
squadrons In the Levant are duo to 'tho
IX
diplomatic warfare ever the sultan's iuves-
tlturo ot the Khedive. Franco and Kuesia
are urging the sultan to refuse Investiture
unless the khodlvo proceeds to Constanti
nople , when , If he does go , all the squad
rons of the guaranteeing powers will
accompany him from Alexandria to the
Dardanelles , thus giving a manifestation
that Egypt Is u vassal of the porlo and that
KngUnd has no preponderance In Egypt.
The khodlvo Is Inclined to go to Constanti
nople , although his predecessors wcro In
vested at Cairo.
The khodlvo shows other symptoms of
being Inclined to It I ok against the English
regime. The foreign ofllco hero Is of the
opinion that English diplomacy will win
and that the khodlvo will bo invested at
Cairo. He will then bo permitted in a llttlo
tlmo afterwards to go to Constantinople to
pay homage to the sultan. The soml-ofllcial
press predicts that Lord Salisbury and Mr.
Gladstone will tighten the British bold on
JCgypt If the kbodlvo trios to rely on Franco
nnd Uussla.
Abimlni ; America.
A number of Gorman papers join a section
of the English press In rancorous abuse of
the United States for the latter's treatment
of Chili , llio cause Is not hard to sco. The
cause Is jealousy ot the extension of Ameri
can Inlluouco In South America which Is
leading to a loss of Gorman trade. This
trade Is already diminishing wherever it has
mot wlth-Amorlcan competition.

3ut of over 31-1,030 American cattle landed
n Great Britain last year there were only
two alleged cases of pleuro pneumonia. Now
an embargo has bcon laid on Danish and
Dutch cattle on the ground of foot and mouth
disease , and the metropolitan markets arc
closed to foreign cattlo. Edmund MofTat ,
agents of the Agricultural department here ,
told rco today his information was that the
disease was tlrst discovered in n drove of
Norfolk cattle brought to London , nnd
that the Danish cattle had been libelled.
Thcro seems no chance that tbo present
eovernmont will lift the embargo on Amer

do so when they como into powor. Maybe
they will , but there Is not a striking differ

high llcenso ullll Involving the repeal of the
present prohibitory law nnd substituting a
niinimuin license of > 00 , opened In the sen
ate on Thursday and will probably continue
till Tuesday or Wednesday before a Una !
vote U reached.
Bath political parties have hold -caucus ,
with the result that every ono of the twonty-
flvo democratic votes In the senate will bo
cast solidly for the pending bill , and nearly
or quite all of the republicans against It. The
democrats lacii ono vote only of a sulUc'enl '
number to pass the measure , and this vote
must either como from Euplo , union labor or
from the republicans , Knglo is u radica
prohibitionist , and represents tbo strong pro
lubltlon ccunty of Jasper , nnd besides Is
'i-g dangerously 111 uud vflll hardly bo able
o record h s voto.
Tno Doubtful Itrpnlillciiiil.
Of the twenty-four republicans only two
of them can bo classed as anyway doubtful
These ara Hatch of Polk aud Browerof Han
cjck. Senator Catch has always boon at
heart a high license man and voted agams
several of the moro stringent provisions o
the present law. Ho Is finishing his sccom
term and has no further political aspirations
and U In a position to oct independently 1
ho so ncslies. Ho has all along maintained a
suspicious silence on the question and declines
clines to bo Interviewed.
Senator Brouor was formerly editor of ta
Duouquc Times , has always boon a license
man In sentiment and has nt times evinced a
sturdy lndcpeiuler.ee which caused him to bo
cgnraod with distrust by his party nssocl-
tes.
If the bill fails In the scnuto It will bo be-
auso Its democratic supporters carry out
hojr caucus program lo vote down nil
amendments calculated to strengthen the
measure and rrmko It loss objectionable to
ho true friends ot temperance.
AVluit tlir DctnorrntR Want.
The bill Is not an Ideal democratic mcr.s-
Uro. Several provisions In It nro especially
obnoxious to the largo cities. Davenport nnd
Dubuque want the fee reduced to $200vhllo
counties In the Interior , llko Davis , that
otod ovcrwhelmltmly for prohibition In 18S2
nslsl that the llcouso shall not bo less than
$1,000 , with county option a feature that
vas demanded by the party platform , but
vhlch has boon eliminated from this bill.
Some Interior localities also nsk that the
ictltlon for n license In each ward shall ro-
inlro the slgnatnro ot n majority ot all the
resident ficcholdcrs. The word has gone
forth that all amendments of this character
must bo voted down nnd the bill passed just
as It comes from the democratic caucus.
A bill providing for * 1,000 license with
county options , It is believed by manj , would
command a sufllclcut number of republican
votes to secure Its passage , but the largo
cities would prefer the present law and the
representatives from thcso localities would
not dnvo support a bill containing these
( revisions.
How tlip Soiintp Stnmlv
Anus could the bill , If safely through the
senate , sceuro the necessary llfty-ono votes
n the lower house. To do so it must secure
at least flvo lurnbllcan votes , and already
Ifty-two republican inombors have openly
and boldly stated that they would stand by
the present law , at least till the people had
another opportunity to express their dcslro.
The repuollcan program is to resubmit the
question to a popular vote at n popular elec
tion , pledging themselves to ublclo by the re
sult. The democrats nro not willing to ac
cept this solution of the matter nnd will de
feat rcsubnmslon in the senate.
They prefer to keep the issue before the
people , hoping to bo able to carry the state
n the coming presidential election by means
of thn general Oissatisfacllon ever the work-
ngs of the present law , and believing that
they will bo able two years hence to repeal
irohibltton and pass the bill now pending in
.ho senate. Thus it may bo seen that the
prospects for the icpeal of the prohibitory
statute , owing to the Insincerity of the dem
ocrats , are not very brilliant.

Lixcot.v , Nob. , Feb. 13. [ Special Tele
gram to Tun Br.K. | Unless unexpected and
jnforescen contingencies nrlso Governor
Boyd will within a week or ten days issue a
proclamation calling a special session of the
ORlslnture. In that call will bo n suggestion
thatrtho legislature should pass a maximum
freight bill and reapportion the state into
legislative districts. A few amendments to
the Omaha charter may bo Included. The
question of "Mlchlcanizlng" the btato will
not bo included.
This prediction is made upon a close ob
servance of the drift of events at the state
capitol. It is believed that Governor Boyd
aad practically determined upon calling an
extra session Before no came to Lincoln. Ills
determination has been strengthened slnco
lie has reassumcd the executive functions by
the ndvico of many democratic members of
the lost legislature. The governor hlmsrlf
will not discuss the matter for publication ,
but , in a general conversation with Tun Biu
representative todnv , said that the public
might expect to hear something drop next
week. Whllo the remark will admit o ! a
double construction , It may at least bo con
jectured that he referred to an extra session.
A leading counsellor In the democratic
party said today that an extra session had
bcon determined upon. Ho further said that
THE BKE'S conjectures in regard to a com
bination between the democratic and Inde
pendent parties was practically correct.
Such a combination , bo said , would avoid the
necessity of nn attempt to "MIohiganizo" the
state nnd he intimated that Governor Boyd
was not himself in favor of such a policy
unless It could bo accomplished by con
L-rcssional enactment.

Parduq , a well known young farmer of that
neighborhood , and his wife were found nt
their homo this morning lying dead on the
lloor of their bedchamber with their throats
cut from ear to car.

the belief that the deaths were both the re
sult of a planned smchK though the reports
that have reached this place nro rather mea
ger and unsatisfactory as to particulars.
Both bodies were > lying on pillows on the
floor , and near Mrs. Parduo was a raw with
which the ghastly deed had been com
mitted. The fact thnt the razor lay
nearest Airs. Panluo has led to the
conjecture that she was the last
to use the Instrument of death , in fact , this
theory is supported by o note which Is said
to have been found in the room written In
Mrs. Perduo's hand and signed by her. In
nbich it was stated that she and her husband
hnd no friends , and as ho had concluded to
commit suieido sha would lake her own life

The letter was referred to Mr. E. Uoso
water , editor of Tin : BEI : , nnd the same
ovcnlng the special pace of Tin : Urn was
adorned under the head "Personal" with the
line ordered by the Impecunious anarchist
"T. V. P. All rlgnt. "
Mr. P. was evidently watching for it , ns
another letter was received by Mr. Ba.iuer
the next day from the same ublquttotn per
son. He was pleased to know that his terms
had been so promptly agreed to , and ho
wanted some arrangement made nt
ouco for convoying the money to him.
Ho suggested that It would bo well for Mr.
Barker to put the mouoy In his pocket and
pass along the street , when ho would bo no
costcd by the man for whom ho was loolslng
in a manner that would satisfy him that
there was no mistake , and the money cojld
uo quietly turned ovor. lie kindly stated
that If Mr. Barker h.ul a better plnn ho
would agree to it , and dlicotod him to ex
press himself In Tin : lir.i : ns before. Ho
also npologl/cd far the act that ho hnd been
compelled to porfoim. Ho declared thnt It
was through no fault of his own , as uo work
could bo obtained Ir. tlio city nnd his wife
and llvo chlldicn woio sick and
starving. Ho thought that , the
banner would adopt similar tactics
under the sarao circunibtnnces , nud
candidly asiccd him if ho did not think so
himself" ' , llo intimated thnt bo knew what
ho was abdat nnd would not bo taken alive.
Ho said hqwould , ratnorklll himself than bo
captured and bring disgrace on his innocent
wlfo nnd children , and in conclusion pi om-
Ised to pay back the money in ilvo years
with Interest payable annually.
HIiXiTio Ne\c'r railed.
Mr. Banter \vas charmed with the ingenu
ousness of the gentlemanly highwayman , but
still ho did not start out for a promenade
With the $500. Ho turned over the second
lottcrto Mr tonrwator , and the I'esulfciwJH '
the appearaned'bf tto following card among
the personals In Tin : EVJJXIXO BIK : :

No more was heard from the anonymous
correspondent for about two weeks , nnd Mr.
Barker thought that , ho had made up his
mind that the piospects were not sufilciontly
flattering nnd had transferred the scene of
his Operations to another quarter , but ho was
undeceived n few days ace , when ho found
another letter- addressed in the familiar back
hand of Mr. T. V. P. at his front door. The
others had been sent through the mail , nnd
the Danker marveled somewhat at tno appar
ent change In the program , but he opened
the letter and lend as follows :

Mr. Barker made up his mind that n man
who would rcallv do him violence would not
threaten so much In advance and paid no at
tention to the letter. He has heard no moro
from the bloodthirsty pauper.
Who the man is has not \ot bcon ascer
tained , though flomo clews have been discov
ered that may lead to tbo revelation of his
Idontity. The letters were Indited In a half
printed bncuhond that was seemingly fa
miliar to tno writer , as ho made no depar
tures from It , and tU'i letters wcro even and
very legible.
But otio man has called nt tbo bank and
asked for money , nnd ho begijod for 85.
Ho said bo was the son of u man whom Mr.
Barker know when Mivn and named him.
Ho also told a story about his Hufforing wito
and llvo chllaren , which coirespondod lo
somonftho written conlldonclcs of T. V. P.
It was surmised that ho might bo that per-
sonauo , nnd ho nent awavltbout getting
any money. Ho made no demonstration , aud
has not been bick since , although ho called
two or three times to see Mr. Baikcrboforo
ho found him.
It Is supposed that tholetters.woro written
lely as a bluff , hoping that it would win ,
and that as It failed , the \\rltor has glvnn up

DCS MOI.NCS , la. , Fob , 13 , In tbo senate
this morning a largo number of petitions
wcro presented asking for cottages at tho.
Soldiers' Homo at Marshalltown.
Senator Finn rose to a question of privi
lege , stating Hint when ho found out what
was lha purport of tbo potitiou to Governor
Bolos to pardou Munchsrath , tbo slayer of
Haddock , ho took his name thorofrom. and so
1 > appeared on tbo document now on nlo.
Senator Hagor ( rap. ) then took the floor
and spoke on tbo Schmidt bill. Ho denied
that the people over decided against probt
bitlon. Ho thought the question could bo de
cided only by rosubmisslon Of the constitu
tional amendment. Uo regarded the few
states which adopted this method of dealing
with the liquor tratllo far in advance of other
states. Tno democratic party , ho said , was
wavering during all lu career , bocauro In
16U4 U was warmly In favpr of prohibition ,
but had gone back on thatHong ago. Ho said
the people would not follow the dictates pf
such an unreliable set of men. Tbo city of
Dubuque ho thought a standing example of
the rebelliousness of the people suppoitlng
the liquor legislation. "They are heartless
and defiant and will not obey the Iowa with
wblch they are not in entire accord , " bo said.
Contrasting the condition of the stutoi
around Iowa , ho showed Missouri to bo o\or
jr.OOO.OOO In debt , whllo tliU Mnto is free.
'I his reform , too , Is with the former under
democratic rule with license and the latter
under prohibition. This ho regarded ns an
olicctlvo answer us to which was the best
thing for the state.
Senator Haecr spoke till noon and his
effort Is regarded as the strongest yet made
for the prohibition shin.
Senator Perry claimed the llooi- lust be
fore adjournment nnd took the lloor Immedi
ately on convculne In the afternoon. Ho
spoke from the democratic ) standpoint.
Ho maintained that the democrats have been
consistent nil the time nud th.it the republi
cans are wnvoilng.
"In the last two gubernatorial campaigns
the issue was prohibition so plainly that It Is
nonsense tosay that it was anything else , "
ho said. "The republicans say the question
must bo reubmlttcd bv the submission of
the constitutional amendment , but nt the
same tlmo they fall to glvo the people n
rminra to vote on the question ns thov want
it. In the sonnto the icsolutlon for such ao-
tlon u as delavod until the night ot the last
day before adjournment and the next day
the house could not UiUo It up. Clar'tsou ,
the republican politician , now advises his
party to drop tlio ptohlbltlor. question , but
they don't ' know how to let go. I toll you ,
gentlemen , If you vote in favor ot the license
law It will bo signed by the governor nud
cause rejoicing in the heart of Chairman
Clarkson. "
I'orrv then quoted from tin Interview
alleged to linvo boon bnl with Clarkson in
.St. Louis , whereupon Alacli arose and stated
that Clarkson uad written htm a psrsonal
letter denying everything contained in the
nllorod intoniow nnd snylug that ho never
tried in nny way to lutoifero with republican
politic * in the stnto.
Perry , continuing , said that If the llcenso
law can led Hags would float ever the oulcot
of ovcrv Influential newspaper In that stato.
"Prohibitionists sny the llcenso law
will brine back saloons , " he said.
"How on earth will It bring back
nn Institution which Is already hcrof There
nrooverfl.OCuof thorn In Iowa running with
out nny check whatever. Prohibition docs
not do auay with .saloons nnd wo hud bettor
regulate them than lot them go unrestrained.
i on nsu why democrats do not help enforce
the law. Hero in Dos Molnos you ropub
Hcans have nil the machinery and I'd llko
to know how wo can help. In other
patta of the state they are usklng
for moro judges to help with the business
thnt is the fruit of prohibition. The mam
reason thnt the republicans cannot enforce
the law is that the innk and Illo uro not in
sympithv with the cranks at the head. He-
publicans cannot deny that. Iowa's progress
has been retarded bj the bllpht of prohibi
tion , and the democrats want to place the
state whore it ought to bo among the best
in the union. "
The question then went over until Tues
day morning , when Mack will have the floor
A number of bill * were Introduced , among
them ono by Mack to amend the law rolntlnu
to the publication and snlo of school books
and to provide for special exercises In schools

LOMIOV , Fob. lit. [ Now Yorlt Herald
Cable-Special to Tin : BIK. | In the Urst
week the patllamontary battle Is joined mid
the general plnn of campaign begins toshnpo
itself. It Is ovlilcnt the attack upon the gov-
uriunout Is very much weaker than was an
ticipated. The ( iladstonlnns linvo bcou
boasting for inontlm of the awful things they
inaaut to do when Parliament met , and now
when the tlmo tins coino for action they seem
disposed to run off the Held altogether. '
This Is very disappointing to many of
the party who were led to bolluvo
that a big light was Impending.
The only lighting thus far done
lins been hy tbilr arch enemy , Mr , Joseph
Chamberlain , whoso raking fire is nil the
more annoying because it Is kept uj > from
their own ranks. Mr Chamberlain will per *
rlst In sitting among thorn while accusing
them of every political crime known to man.
It is a state of affairs never soon in Parlia
ment since Benjamin Disraeli from the lory
benches ponied in hot shot upon his leader.
Sir Hobcrt Peel.
Will l.r.ul Through Ills Hum ) .
Another tiling made clonr Is that the two
Irish parties have maile and intend to taka
no approach to reconciliation. Moroovcrono
of them , the Parncllitoi , lea by Mr.
John Uodmond , Is fi.lly determined ta
force Mr. Gladstone's hand on the homo rule
question. They will insist on knowing the
details of his now scheme , and thus fur Mr.
Gladstone has absolutely declined to glvo
any information on the subject. It will bo
very awitwnrd if a considerable section of
the Irish party In Parliament persists io
backing up the conservatives for the par
ticulars of the projected bill , for , alfould
they bo refused , you will see that Mr Glad
stone cannot possibly bottle the Homo rule
question , and thin' will not support li'tn ' at
the next election. Thus , the late Air. Pur-
noil's followers will Do able tp exact voutjo
anco for the death of their chief , and they
seem fully resolved to do it. '
The Parncllitos are all In favor of lettlrj-
Mr. Gladstone get back to power , and then
making such tnrms with him nt may IM
doomed necessary. The Pnrnollltot insist on
having the terms signed , scaled and delivered
before band. As the critical hour approaches
Mr. Gladstone finds himself unable to satisfy
his Irish allies whoso united support U m-
dlsponslblo to him.
What AVill niiidstono Do ?
This accounts for Mr. Cha.nbirlaln'a
bhrlek of triumph ever his former colleagues
on Thursday night. At the eleventh hour ,
therefore , dismay bctrins secretly to make <
tsolf visible in the Gladstonlun ranks.
Will their leader Insist on presorv-
ng the hupromacv of the Crltinh
Piirliamenti If bo his Irish allies will not
acbupt liu bill ; If not tlio English people will
throw him and his bill overboard.
Mr. Gladstone's calculation was that ho
could get elected before divulging his great
secret , but Mr. John Ueumond requires full
and complete explanation. If Gladstone
cannot parry this , ho may as well renounce
all hopes of getting Into power again.
The radical forces have boon In good at
tendance nil the week , but ttiov are rather
cast down at the tactics of their loaders , and
the old man himself will bo obliged to coma
baen In a hurry.
Lord Randolph Churchill has not turned
up at nil thus far , but ho has got into a
rattier uely controversy wltti his constitu
ents , who are not satisfied with the way ho
has represented them. They askoJ , if they
nominated til in again would ho support the
nonsorvatlvo pvrtyi Ho replied that ho
would give the same support as ho has done
ever since ho entered parllamoat. Looking
back on the events of tno last llvo years
this answer does not satisfy his constltuonoy ,
and they cull for a bolter guarantee of goal
behavior. The Hnndolphlan has sunk very
low , but It It h not conoalvable that no
should long seek In vain for a .suit in parlia

lIootli'H lletiirn to London.
LONDON" , Fob. lit. The Salvationists of
London , and in fact of ull parts of the king
dom , took occasion today to show their love
and loyalty to General Booth , who had just
arrived back to England after a lo.v ' visit to
Australia and India. For several days past
the Salvationists have boon pouring into
London for the purpose of tuning part in the
procession to bo given In his honor.
The crowd was a very forcible reminder of
tbo funeral of Mrs. General Uootu some tlmo
ngn , when curtain parts of London were
practically given over to tno Salvationists.
There was an immcnso gathering in Hyde
park. General Booth arrived ut the marble
arch ul ! ) o'clock and ho was the icclplont of
an ovation that became almost ilotoua In Its
( lomonstrativoncss. General Booth , accom
panied by Mrs. Tucker , bU daughter , and her
hutband , was In an open carriage. The car
riage was surrounded by a squad of mounted
pollco and was followed by a great crowd of
hooting and yelling hoodlums. Wagons
filled with children followed the acnvral's
carriage. The procession of balvatlonlst-s ,
which the general reviewed , was a mile long ,
and In U were cars emblematical of General
Booth's travels in foreign lands ,
As the proo'jssion maroliuJ lust the placa
whoto the general stood the Salvationists
cave him n hearty welcome , cheering and
bhouting without , restraint.
After the line had ull passed In review
General Booth was driven back to the head
quarters of the army In Queen Victoria
street. The whole route taken hy his car-
liaco from Hydopjrk to the headquarters
was lined with an enthusiastic croud , which
guvo vent to their feelings by cheering and
waving their halt.
