Lostxiv. Oct. I. ( Now York Herald
Cable Special to TUB BEC. ) Two cabinet
councils on two successive day * ; this looks
Hue business Gladstone u beginning ( o out
bis new team into active training. At the
same lime be Is doing that which makes him
the bapplesl roan In the world exercising
power over this great empire. Ilu bas bad
to plnce before his colleagues , sotuo of whom
had never before been seen in a cabinet
council , part of hi * schema for homo rule ,
nnd to iiiclle tucm to discuss the qocblion
whether it will bo a case of scuttle out of
Uganda or not.
The British East Africa company can
not hold Its ground any longer without
active aid from the government. Will it get
lit I doubt it , for thu radical policy has
never bern to incur fresh liabilities In distant
countries.
Only u I'rUntc Simp.
This Ugavda business Is purely the out
come of } .uvato speculation. \\asquito
sure to let the quean's government in for all
its responsibilities , sooner or later , and no
member of the present ministry has ever
encouraged the enterprise Therefore , I in
cline belief that It will be scuttle , and the
usual personage take hindmost. There
will bo a great outcry about tbl , for It
involves England's giving up territory
\vhlch would ba or much value in extending
her trade , but the government may deny us
responsibility. The company went to Ea t
Africa asking for nothing more than the
royal charter and got it , Now , in its diftl-
culties , it calls upon the nation to save it.
The government lies only to decline to inter
fere and nil will be over with the new
settlement , uhlch was lo regenerate Africa
nun give BtilUh commerce a new start.
On the llntito Hull- One llon.
As for homo rule , Mr. Gladstone's col
leagues must take what ho mixes up for
them. John Hedmond and the Parnellites
may dcclir.c , but if McCarthy & Co. are
sutlslled wllb the proscription it may pass
muster. Observe , meanwhile , that in the
by-election just over the Uladstonian major
ity sunk from over l.OIX ) to 21'J. The vane
Indicates another change in the wind al-
rendy. Voters seem to oe repenting their
dcclsiuit in the recent general election , but
Gladstone feels quite safe. Ho bas had the
dingy old official residence of the prime min
ister renovated and cleansed and will take
bis abode there.
It ii a shabby , ui'lv house outside , but
vrlth some goad Urge rooms within , in one of
which I had a long talk with Mr. bralth a
few months before his death. Ilo was In
terrupted every few minutes , somebody hap
pening In. "Tnoy will not leave mo alone &t
nny time , " said Smith , wearily , "they"
being bis treasury colleagues. Hero , too ,
Bmfour aid bis ofliclal woik.
When IlUmeli Brought Pence.
From the window facing the street I heard
Lotd Baconsfiold ma no a speech to u largo
crowd on kit return from Berlin , assuring
them tout ho had brought to a ilk peace with
honor. Th t was prcbablv the firit time tte
prime minister ever addressed an audience
from 10 Downing street.
Gladstone bas now had the bouse done up
as a private residence , as if ho were going to
' live there for the next twenty years. They
eay be has even turned the old council cham
ber into u nursery for bis grandchildren ,
the cabinet nnvtng been moved to another
room to make way tor the youngsters. What
would BUI ; Put say to that !

notice appears today In a number of Loa

allegiance to tbo pope of Home , being Ion
mayor of London are invited to comrauni

gainst tbo papists ana tbo most eQectiv

to by London mobs hisses and groans and
not infrequently slicks and s'one . Despite
the blatant utterances of these bigots , there
Is no doubt that tbo common sense , law abid

manifestations on show dav. At all event * ,
It Is satisfactory to nolo that , with scarcely
an exception , the belter clas of pansrs
decry nny appeal to sectarianism. It really
makes little difference where and how the
lord mayor of London performs his devo
tional duties. His office is practically nomi
nal , and should have been abolished
years ago. Illi Jurisdiction extends over a
single square milo of ground , occupied
mostly by business bouses. His salary is as
large a. * that of the president of tbo United

Ulll lUrgitnrltli the Kmneror.
The center parly will doublless birgain
with Ibo emperor and Chancellor
von Capnvi for some advantage
or the Catholic church in ex
change for their support. A peculiar
feature of ihs position is that tha Vatican ,
with its leanings toward Franc ; , does not
desire an increase in the military strength of
ermany , but Qnds It impossible to interfere
or advise the centcrUts , as hitherto the Cath
olic leaders , knowing that th3 situation is
touchy , have not consulted tbe Vatican.
In order to expedite matters the govern
ment has requested tbo Bundesrath to com
plete its consideration of the buJget in the
course of ibe present month. The Bundcs
rain finds its usual diClculty In agreeing
upon the taxation required lo meet tne defi

Bavaria.Wnatevcr measure the govern

( iettlut ; Oler the Cholera Scare.
Tbo setting in of colder weather has as
sisted in the repression of cholera every
where. Under tno warnings of Prof. Koch
tbo authorities tlurine tno winter will effect
such sanitations thut will enable them lo
cope wilh a chance outbreak in tbe spring.
The commission on the formation of a sani
tary law has Prof. Koch , Dr. Von Color and
other scientists to aid it. Surprise is ex
pressed that Prof. Virchoiv has no share in
tbe work of the commission. A lame excuse
is given I bat. he was absent from Berlin at
Iho lime iho body was formed The probable
reason is the late discord existing between
Prof. Vircbow and Prof. Koch. Prof. Vir-
chow has J jst completed a great ethnic work
entitled "Crania Elbula Americana , " which
bo In'cnds to send lo Chicago. '
Berlin is free from cholera , and onlv oc
casional cases of cholerine disorders are re
ported in Ihe slumi of Cbarlaltcnburg. A
bargeman' * wife was there seized yeilerdav
nnd died in a few hours. The papers have

number of cases. A careful estimate of Ibo

John Cmlahjnnd Austin \Vright Charged
with Violating the la\v.
CHICAGO. III. , Oct 1. Thomas H. Rouih
s wore out a warrant today for the arrest of
John Cudahy and Austin W. \ \ right , charg
ing them with conspiring to run a corner in
short ribs.
When the cholera scare began minv pack
ers oelng afraid of heavy losses made baste
lo sell. \ \ right , it is claimed , was upon Ibo
long fide of the market at that time and
much of tbe short ribs was- unloaded on him.
Wright believed that ns sooa as the cholera
scare blew over bo would be long on a staple
article of limited productionwhile evervbody
else would bo away stiori aud wholly at bis
mercy. Hecould , bethought , come outon top
if he could get baoklng-.to enable him to take
In Ihe rios as fust as they tvcrn thrown upon
him. Tbe allegation is that John Cudahy ,
the Chicago .repre entatlve of tbe big
Ornaba-CmcBgo firm , agreed to back him.
Thus reinforced , Wright carried out bis
campaign. He boig t heavily and pinched
the oncber ! . Yesterday there were 142,000
barrels of pork , 23,000,000 pounds of nbs and
' . ' 2,030 tierces of lard in tbe marks' In
Chicago. Ribs went from 110 to flO 30 dur
ing the day and tbo deliveries amounted to
only 4,003,000 pounds and it is said Cudaby
and Wripbt got the whole quantity.
The deal Is of great Importance in vlow of
tno fact that the visible supply of ribs Is only
23,000.000 pounds , against u taort interest
amounting to 45,030,009 pounds. The corner
bas made it decidedly disagreeable for Ibo
shorts , ana they have been kept busy to keep
out of hot water. Neither of tbe HUP bad

BEIILIX , Oct. 1. [ New York Herald Cable
Special to Tnc BEE. ) Thu excitement
which was caused by the cholera has begun
to subside , nnd politics is forcln ; its \\ay to
tbe front again. Parlies are Intriguing , min
sters are scheming am ! the emperor U bunt
ing. One finds it rather hard , too , to blame
blm for avoldinc Berlin. There Is nothing
very pleasant in the buslnois which awaits
him here. The problems which demand the
attention of the government Just now would
puzile wiser men.
Kro long the Herman rulers miy bo cilled
upon lo s ttle many points. They mav hive :
to cheese between the restriction of tbo
people's rights in Prussia by a readjustment
of the local mode of voting and Ihe adoption
of a mure liberal schemeof suffrage ; ba-
iwtien Ihe abolition and retention of the
present universal secret bal'ot ' for tao
Kelchstag elections ; between the two aud
tnreo years' military service systemi ; be-
iween vast and clashing methods of taxa
tion ; between clericalism and liberalism ;
between Count Caprlvi nnd his foes ; be-
In ecu a return to Ibe dead feudal pasl and
Ibo recognition of the living , struggling
present.
No Wonder They Are III.
Hi * majesty has thus no lack of food for
serious tbojghl in his retreat at Rominla.
There is no wander that his health bas b-en
affected , nor Is he , I am told , the only per-.cn
whoso health has suffered from tbeearand
tear of politics. Count Euhlenburg , the
Prussian premier , bus not escaped. His
nerves have been badly strained of late by
tbe excitement of Ihe Bi mark campaign and
other cares. His chances for succeeding
Count Capnvi have grown 'tis ' and Ie i. As
the emperor remarked the other day to an offi
cer In bis Immediate entourage : "Man kunn
doch nicat all sechs rnonnten , elnen nevca
kanzler suchen , " nnd if Count Euhlenburg
replaced the present chancellor , there is only
too much reason to bellova that , as bis ma
jesty hints , hU nerves would compel
him to resign batoro six months
bad passed. So fortune seems to
favor Capnvi for the moment.Vnca the
army once cymes before tbe Reichstag his
luck will hsrdly serve him. Tbo national
liberals in the south of the empire , the great
mass of the crogresslsls , the social demo
crats and a portion of the center , seem op
posed to the bill. Nor , whatever may be
printed In the papers , bas the emperor , who
could settle the whole question bv "yes" or
"no , " decided to allow tbo lulroiucllon of
the two years' service plan. H * may or ma >
not be induced to wink at its adoption later
on in practice , but be opposes it in principle.
AVlll took I'p Von .lioltke's lU-conl.
I bear lhatl'otat major has just commis
sioned Captain Hooaig , director of the
Heleres Zitung and ono of the mosl promi
nent authorities on German military sub
jects , to make researches In th secret
archives on Ihe general staff in order lo
complete a review of \ on Moltko's tacticf
in tbo French campaign. This news will
make astir In the army , for Caotaln Hoenig
did not spare Iho great commander in an
earlier work entitled "
, "Vier-und-zwanrig
Stundcr Strategic. " The strangest fact
connected wltu this matter is ibat tbe em
peror himself , whose admiration for Von
Moltkobas not heretofore oeen doubted , is
said to bavo approved granting the necessary
permission to Homig In the face of General
von Schlleffeii's remonstrances.
Not Vet Settled.
Tbe last won ! on the array bill is not lively
to bo spoken till the emperor has met his
Austrian cousin end conferred wllh Archduke -
duke Albrccbt in Vienna. On his return
here his majesty will probably consult sev
eral distinguished Prussian pcncruls , among
Ihem , perhaps , Gdncrals Brcmsa * ! , Witlicb ,
H.iehler and Count Walder ee. Mt-aawnilo
I am ublo to inform you that , after some
vacillation , a number of influential mem
bers of Ihe conservative parly , mcludlngsome
exponents of the Vc-n Moltae military idea ,
have resolved to offer strenuous resistance
lo nil changes in thelarce years' service sys
tem. Without .heir help it is not easy to fee-
how the chancellor can piss the bill , and
tberofore you need not ba surprised ifhen ,
at the eleventh Hour , the meaiuro is with
drawn or postponed sine die.

The terror which was ciusea by ibe arri
val of Aubrey Hianhapa in Berlin was
amusing in a way , but it wai also pitiable.
You remember the various virtuous leader-
ptios and loiter * In which tne Berlin papers
denounced , ana very proparlv , li'o cruully ,
stupidity and cowardice o ! the Fire island
ers. The Norraannia people , however , were
not half as safe from cholera as , on the testi
mony of.tho leading German doctors , backed
by the police , Blanbopa was when bo arrived
at the Bellcvuo hotel , Y t ha w as expelled
and obliged lo go In search of more hospitable
quarters ,
"Our customers will detert us if wo Iceep
him , " was thu ugontzsd remark of the
usually amiable- gentlemen who koups tbe
hotels.
As Stanhope had no with to barm his
neighbors ho ? ot What difference U tbore
belwoen Iho bravo Berliner * and tbe brutal
Fire Islanders <
A pleasant contrast to tbe coarse and silly
jeers in which most German paper * have In
dulged at Stanhope's expense comes In an
Interesting interview , U closes ( bus : "We
parted from our American confrere wllb tLo
. full conviction that we bad talked to a man
who knew tte e&ruestneis and meaning of
his minion and had been equal to It "
Stannopo left Berlin by tbo 1:05 p. m. ex
press today , in robust health and Hue iplnts.
His temperature was uormul. MCLTZBK.

government is compelled hv Germany to add
to its armaments , while at Iho same time tha
Vicuna Journal draws tbe attention of Eu
rope to the dance" of the Frccch fortifica
tions at Bizeta in Tunis. Looking under
neath tbo political situation and knotting by
uhotn such news is circul.V/ed , tbe whole
story Is very amusing. It if possible that
the Italian people and German deputies are
croon enough to bo victimized in this nny by
ibese stones , but it IE necessary thai th
American public should not bo fooloJ.
Tbe peuco of Europe is in no greatci
danger today than it was six months ngo.
France is not arming and the fortifying of
Bigcia threatens no ono. It U on a line with
tbo story of Ihe Invasion ot Tripoli , an
nounced Ibis week by the Italian papers with
so much certainly that ine French govern
ment telegraphed to Tunis asking : ' 'How
about this ) " The answer was that throe
soldiers , who crossed tbe frontier during the
maneuvers , returned to Tunis , after having
