Down of the Unruly Opening
of the ItolchstiiR ,
BERLIN , Dec. B. Emperor William ,
wearing a British uniform , this morning
visited the prince ot Wales and the duke of
York , who returned his majesty's visit an
hour later , and then started for England.
After the departure ot the prince of Wales
and the duke ot York , Emperor William
donned a Prussian uniform and prepared to
open the Reichstag.
The radala ! are furious that the monarch
docs not come to Parliament , but that In
stead , his majesty must go to the castle for
the ceremony. The course of his majesty ,
Bays the Frclsslnlgo Zcltung , shows how
modest al part parliamentarism ho'.ds In
Germany.
The session of the Reichstag was opened
at noon In the Rlttersaal of the castle in
stead of In- the usual white hall , which Is
being renovated. Emperor William In per
son read his speech from the throne. It
was as follows :
"Honorable Gentlemen : In the name of
my exalted allies , I bid you welcome at the
beginning of your constitutional work. You
will transfer your labors to your new home ,
which after ten years of earnest work is
now upon the point pf completion , a monument
ment of our national industry. May God's
blessing rest upon the house , nnd may the
greatness and welfare of the empire be the
goal for which all who are called upon to
work within Its walls will aim with self-
denying loyalty. I entertain this wish all
the more strongly In view ot the economic
and social political tasks which must bo
solved with your co-operation.
FAITHFUL TO TRADITIONS.
"Faithful to the traditions of our an
cestors , my exalted allies and myself re
gard It as our foremost duty to the state
to protect the weaker classes and to assist
them In attaining higher economic and mora
development. The duty of the state be
comes more Imperative as the struggl.
for existence upon the part of certain sec
tions of the people grows more serious. The
federal governments will continue their
efforts to promote feelings of content among
the people by mitigating economic and socla
differences.
"But If these efforts are to succeed It
appears necessary to oppose more effectually
than hitherto th ? pernicious conduct of those
who attempt to disturb the executive power
In the fulfillment of Its duty. Experience
lias shown that the existing legislation does
not afford the means required by the federal
governments. You will therefore consider
means of supplementing our common law
> nnd a necessary bill will be submitted to you
without delay , which , chiefly by extending
the present penal provisions , will Incraase
the protection of public order.
"I entertain the confident hope that ycu
will lend your energetic co-operation * o this
serious task. "
His majesty next alluded to the prejudicial
effect of the abuses of bourse speculation
upon national prospeilty , and said to remedy
these evils a bljl was being prepared which
would probably bo submitted during the
course of the session. Continuing , the em
peror said : "The same U the case In regard
to 'a bill which is Intended to protect the
trading community against competition
which does not scruple to employ unfair
mejns and which will contribute to strength
ening confidence in business and commerce.
' 'In ' consequence of the change In
tbo financial situation to the dis
advantage-of the Individual states , which , In
stead of receiving , as heretofore , surpluses
from the Imperial revenues , have been lately
called upon to contribute to the Imperial
expenditures , the creation ot such sources of
revenue has bscomo necessary. This op
pressive state of affairs can only bo partially
remedied by an Increase ot the stamp tax
and the opening of other fresh sources renders
" dors the revenue Indefensible. To this end
a bill for the reform of the tobacco taxation
will be submitted to you.
CONFIDENT OF PEACE.
"To my lively satisfaction , my confidence
In the maintenance ot European peace ha
been further strengthened during the st
few years. Faithful to the spirit of ar
alliances , we cultivate good and friendly re
lations with all the powers.
"During the courfce of the last few months
two neighboring empires have been deeplj
stirred by grave events. Germany has sin
cerely Joined In the sympathy which was
evinced on nil sides , nnd which once in on
pnvo evidence of the solidarity ot the humar
feeling and peaceful wishes. In the death inof
the emperor ot Russia I deplore the loss o
a friend and a tried co-operator In works o
peace. "
Emperor William's delivery of this speed
was Impressive and was accompanied b
gestures. Several times ho raised his volci
and looked sternly around , especially at th
uV < passages In regard to the agrarian questloi
y nnd the revolutionists nnd during his patlietl
V references to the late czar.
I His majesty afterwards went to the Relchs
I tag building In order to formally perforn
) the ceremony of laying Us corner stone , whlcl
1 Is combined with the dedication ot the build
_ Ing and the formal opening of the new ses !
A , slon of the Reichstag.
r" Immense crowds ot people were gatherei
along the route and outside the new bulldlm
and cheered the emperor nnd the Germai
reigning princes upon their way there am
upon their arrival.
Prince Hohcnlohethe / chancellor , am
Field Marshal Dluementhnl. chief of the general
innit
oral staff of the Prussian army , who Is nbou
SO years of age , were accorded an especial ny !
warm reception.
The Imperial carriages arrived at the ne\
Reichstag building at 3 o'clock In the after
noon. The position sot apart for the roya
party , the portal opposite the column o
victory , was conspicuous from the fac
icty.
that It was decorated with a velvet canopy
The weather was raw nnd blustering , IUt
this did not deter Immense crowds of ptopl
*
" * from gathering everywhere In the neighbor
licoil ot the now building.
WAS A URILLIANT SUCCESS.
The dedication ceremonies passed off with
out a hitch. The cccno was most brllllanl
A large dais had been constructed for the ise
ot the Imperial family and highly favore
1 guests , and over it was a canopy topped b
the Imperial crown. Beneath this canopy th
emperor and fjn'press and the Gcirmoi
r ' princes were gathered. Opposite this struc
ture were the military and other notabilities
as well as the members ot the illplomati
corps. Prlnca Hohonlohe , when ovorythln
was ready , advanced toward the rmperc
with agile and sprfngy step and asked hi
majesty's permission for the ceremonies t
begin. The prince spoke In a clear bi
strident voice.
The ceremony was a tedious affair , all tli
participants climbing down from the dais t
the stone and giving It tlireo taps. At the :
, conclusion of this ceremony three "hocha
V for the emperor were given , the band playc
the national anthem and his majesty and tl
lirperlal party retired to an Inner chamlx
ot the Reichstag building. The crowds the
gradual ! ) ' dispersed , while tha emperor > i

of the magnificent Empress line are to be
Immediately converted Into armed cruisers ,
In accordance with terms of the subsidy
from the Hrltlsh government , and that the

view of the possible events there. The offi

Empress of China threw light on the sub
ject. Ever since the Empress boats have
been on the route their guns- have been In
the arsenal at Hong Kong , but were never
placed In position , as the mountings are not
there. The latter .have now arrived , being
somewhat hurried out from England on ac
count of the war. AVhen last In Hong Kong

Achieving Ills Purpose * .
MILWAUKEE , Dec. C. Dr. Charles W.
Jacobs , under arrest here for his participa
tion in a meek marriage , li not 1'ltzel , the
St. Louis Insurance swindler.
Jacobs was unable to get a divorce from
his legal wife In Kansas City , yet wanted
to marry Mrs. Buck of Chicngo. He disap
peared , leading his wife to believe that he
had been killed. Mrs. Buck refused to live
with him until he had secured divorce , so
he Rot a copy of the Oklahoma territory
court papers and. forged a judgment of di
vorce. Fearing- discovery if lie hud n. min
ister marry him he conceived the plan of a
, mock ceremony. The police have released
Jacobs , Mrs. Buck and Harvey , the bogus
preacher.
CHICAGO , Dec. 5. Dr. Jacobs has , ac
cording to the police of this city , a glitter
ing record. Jacobs secured his diploma from
a Cincinnati medical college ar.il practiced
medicine In Omaha nnd Kansas City. While
in Kansas City several years ago he mar
ried the daughter of Millionaire David Skel-
ton , nnd , It Is claimed , made an unsuccess 'I
ful attempt last summer to secure a divorce
there. Jacobs' favorite plan for ob
taining mcney was , It Is said , the
offeringof $30 worth of work for
a deposit of $3 , but the transaction
- Invariably ended , the police say , when lie
received the deposit. He was also known
as a denier In diamonds , which business
was carried on without the aid of diamonds.
Jacobs Is also said to have received large
contributions from western farmers through
diverse nnd questionable schemes.

SHOWS SIGNS OF ANIMATION
Foreign Affairs Orcatos the First Stir in
tha Session in the Senate.
VEST ACKNOWLEDGES HIS CONVERSION
I'ormcrly Opposed. Cloturc , but Was Com
pelled to Acknowledge. It Had ilo.
coino u Necessity Allen Asks
.Sumo Questions.
WASHINGTON , Dec. D. The senate showed
Its first signs of animation today , and , al
though the session lasted only until 2:30 : ,
there was time enough for several brisk de
bates. Mr. Vest's efforts to secure a change
In the rules In order to expedite business was
the chief event of the day , Mr. Vest , who
was formerly opposed to cloture , today an-
ncunced his conversion. Another feature of
the day was the sharp debate on the China-
Japan questions brought out by Mr. Lodge's
resolution calling for Information as to the
torturing of Japanese students who were
under American protection.
Mr. Peffer made the first formal speech of
the session , criticising from a popullstlc
point of view the recent issue of bonds and
giving his views on finance.
Bills were Introducsd by Mr. Berry , demo
crat of Arkansas , to form the territory of
Indlanola out of portions of the Indian ter
ritory ; by Mr. Dolph , republican of Oregon ,
to exempt from duty foreign exhibits at the
Portland , Ore. , exposition ; by Mr. Hunton ,
democrat of Virginia , to remit the fines und
penalties on the naval ships Yorktown , Balti
more , Newark and Philadelphia ; by Mr.
Dolph , to forfeit the unearned public lands
granted to railroads ; by Mr. McPhcrson ,
democrat of New Jersey , for an Investigation
of the merits of the plan for a unit of labor.
The venerable Mr. Morrlll , republican of
Vermont , arose at this point and with much
earnestness in his tremulous tones stated
that on Wednesday ho would address the sen
ate on "some marvelous senatorial bills and
some quack panaceas for real and Imaginary
Illnesses. "
The vice president laid before the senate
the resolution of Mr. Lodge calling on the
secretary of state for Information as lo the exe
cutlon of the two Japanese students by Chi
nese authorities while the students were
under the protection of the United States.
Mr. Lodge said ho appreciated the delicacy
of the question. He reviewed the hideous
cruelties to which the Japanese students
were subjected while under the protection
of this country , and said If the facts were as
had been published some one was very much
to blame. If they were not this government
should be vindicated.
Mr. Chandler , republican of New Hamp
shire , suggested that as the senator from
Alabama , Mr. Morgan , was chairman of the
foreign relations committee , It would bo well
to know If he saw any objection to securing
speedy Information.
Mr. Morgan , replying , stated war was now
progressing between China and Japan , and
It would be unwise to take any action which
would appear favorable to one belligerent or
the other. Mr. Morgan said his main ob
jection to the resolution was that It was pre
dicted on an Impeachment of the president
or secreary of state.
LODGE WARMS UP.
Mr.'Lodge answered with much vigor that
he had not Intended to present any Impeach
ment or make any attacks. "This country
has done a good deal of meddling In this
China-Japan mix , " said Mr. Lodge , sharply
"It began by warning Japan concerning her
advances In Corea. From that time we have
been meddling , constantly meddling. "
Mr. Morgan stated that n meeting of the
foreign relations committee would be called
at once to consider this resolution If It was
sent to the committee. On .his assurance i
was read.
Mr. Pefler , populist of Kansas , then secured
the flocr for a long and carefully prepared
speech , which He read from printed sheets.
It referred to his resolution calling for in
formation as to the action of the secretary of
the ticasury In Issuing bonds and arraigning
public officials for perfidy and usurpation of
authority.
At the close of Mr. Peffer's speech the
. resolution was adopted without division. It
asks the Judiciary committee to Inquire into
the action of the secretary of thn treasury In
Issuing bonds. Another resolution by Mr.
Peffer for Information from the president as
to the use of United States troops nt Chicago
1 during the Pullman strike brought out considerable
siderable debate on the question of Its refer
ence to committee.
Mr. Chandler of New Hampshire supported
Mr. Peffer's contention. "Now that , the presi
dent had congress on his hands , " said Mr.
Chandler , "It would be well to get all this
and other public information at the earliest
- losslble moment so congress could proceed to
- deal with them. The resolution was finally
efcrred to the Judiciary committee.
. VEST ACKNOWLEDGED CONVERSION.
Mr. Vest of Missouri then addressed the
senate on the need of a change In the senate
rule. He modified the form of his previous
esolutlon to the committee on rules U to
report by December 15 a plan for closing
debate. Mr. Vest said he had formerly op
posed cloture , but he was now convinced cloture
,
ture was Inevitable , and that It should be
effected as soon as possible. The question
was thoroughly understood , having been de-
jated for years , so that ths senate was In a
position to act at once. When the senate
numbered forty members there was no need
of cloture , but with the senate. Increasing so
that its membership would soon reach 100 , It
; was Imperatively necessary to have a rule
bringing debate to a close. In reality the
present rules stifle debate. Senators will not
; debate on a question when they recoznlze the
liopeless opposition under which they labor.
"These rules encourage parliamentary black-
mall , " declared the senator.
"Amendments to bills are offered under
of the deliberate threat that If tlipy arm not ac
- cepted an indefinite opposition will bo In
augurated. Bills of vast public Interest lin
J. gered hero until they were dead , and the people
nt < ple were weary and disgusted with the spec
- tacle of a powerless senate. Even when the
bills passed after a contest they were so dis
credited as to have no moral support from the
public. " Mr. Vest raid ho had no ulterior
purpose of securing the advancement of the
separate tariff bills. He would vote for these
bills. Dut In the present case his only object
. was to secure the change of rules , which was
essential and Inevitable.
Mr. Harris of Tennessee added his opinion
In favor of a change of rules. But he sug
gested that the absence from the city of the
chairman of the committee on rules , Mr.
Blackburn , made It unwise to compel a report
of a form of cloture by December 25. Mr.
Harris said he would undertake to promise
that some tuch resolution would bo presented
teen after the return of Mr. Blackburn.
"I understand , " said Mr. AlJrlch. "that this
a new rule Is not to apply to legislation of this
session , nor to the pending tariff bills. "
"It applies to everything , " * ald Mr. Vest.
"If this rule Is adopted , " asked Mr. Allcr
of Nebraska , "will any effort be made towart
financial legislation on the lines of the pros
Ident's message ? "
Mr. Vest said he was not authorized to t <
state what would be done In that regard.
's. In order to terminate the random dlicus
islon Mr. Harris moved to go Into executlvi
ee lon.
in
Mr. Ransom of North Carolina securec
recognition to present the credentials edof
Patrick Walsh , re-fleeted as senator ofm
Georgia. Arm In arm , Messrs. Walsfl am
Hansom went to the desk of the presldlni
officer , where the oath of ofllce waj admlnls
dl- tered.
Mr. Vest gave notice ho would renew ils
motion In behalf of the resolution tomorrow
' e
. Then the senate went Into executive sessloi
and teen after adjourned.

Made a Special Onlcr fri'ini Day to Day
Until Il po eil r.
WASHINGTON , Dec. D. Ho attendance
on the floor was again small when the house
met at noon today and the Indications pointed
to another dull day. Immediately otter the
reading of the Journal Mr. English , demo
crat of New Jersey , asked unanimous con
sent for the consideration of a bill ,
Mr , Saycrs , democrat Cf Texas , objected ,
whereupon Mr. English promptly objected tea
a resolution offered by Mr , Blair , republican
of New Hampshire , calling on the president
to furnish the house , If not Incompatible
with public Interest , with all correspondence ,
telegraphic and otherwise , between this
country and China , relating to the war be
tween China nnd Japan. The resolution
wont to the committee on foreign affairs.
Mr. English then demanded the regular
order of business.
In the morning hour Mr. Mcllao of Arkan
sas , from the committee on public lands ,
called up the bill to prevent thei free use of
timber on public lands and * to prevent fur
ther issue of permits for cutting timber in
Wyoming , New Mexico nnd Arizona. The
section of the bill repealing- ? act of Match
3 , 1S01 , fixing a limitation of five years
against the United States for the Institution
of suits to vacate land patents , met sttenu
ous opposition and It was amended so a ; , to
exempt patents Issued to Individual settlers.
As amended the bill was passed.
A bill authorizing the secretary of the in
terior to .receive unsatisfied military bounty
land warrants under the act of 1S5S at the
rats of $1.25 per acre tn payment of lands
located under subsequent acts was also
passed.
Mr. Richardson of Tennessee then called
up the conference report on the printing bill ,
which was under consideration yesterday.
The report was adopted 136 to B5.
Mr. Outhwalte , from the committee on
rules , thereupon presented the special order
for the consideration of the railway pooling
bill each day after the morning hour until
disposed of. The order was agreed to with
out division. The object ot the bill Is to
authorize competing cotnmAn carriers , sub
ject to the provisions of the Interstate com
merce act , to enter Into contracts for the
division of their gross or net earnings and
to secure a more expeditious and efficient
enforcement of that law. Applications for
pooling , together with cbplcs of the con
tracts , must , according to the terms of the
bill , be filed with the commission , and unless
disapproved bscomc operative twenty days
after filing. Another section requires an
nual reports from railroads , Including an
swers to all questions , askfd by the com
mission , with fines for refusal.
Mr. Patterson of Tennessee , who was in
charge of the bill , dwelt al length on the
oppressiveness of Illegal fate cutting for the
benefit ot large shippers , clt ng as nn exam
pie the Armour Deet J'ackJng company a
Chicago. That combine , he jsald , handled li.
dollars more beef than tile entire cotton
crop of the United States ) amounted to. The
rates made for this corporation practically
drove small competitors froin the field and
fixed the price of every bhllock on every
farm In the south and west. ; Under the pres
ent law , he said , It wa Impossible to sccun
convictions for violation .ofthe ( anti-pooling
section because both parlies to the cut rate
were equally guilty before the law. and on
could not be made to 'testily agalfist th
other. The pending bill wojld compel test !
mony and did not'aim nt the punlshmen
of the clerk or agent , buljnf the railroad com1
"
pany Itself. ' ,
Mr. Cannon did not think administrate
functions and responsibilities should bi
shouldered on to the courts , but that th
revoking of pooling arrangements should bi
entirely within the control ot the commission
. I'at'ersun'-
Upon the conclusion of Mr.
remarks the house at 5 o'clock adjourned.

Clulin t'io Armenians Were Insurgents bu
Wore Not Mistreated.
WASHINGTON , Dec. G. The Turkish
legation has received thd following com
munlcatlon as regards the Armenian
troubles : "Towards the end of July last
and under the instigation of an Armenian
named Hamparzoun ( , the men of ten
Armenian villages near Mooch formed eep
arate bands , and armed vlth guns , daggers ,
hatchets and other instruments , attacked
the trlba of Dellkan , killed a few men o
that tribe , and atterwdrds. fell on the tribe : i
of Beklran and Badlkan , . These band i
burned alive Hadji , nephew of Burner Ahga ,
ono of the chiefs of the linkjran tribe , and i
not only assaulted Mussulman women of t
the village of Kulllguzat , but also put them '
to death In an atrocious manner. Men
were also treated In a most ferocious way.
Not satisfied with nil those lawless and I
criminal proceedings , tjie same bands
burned also a few vlllakes Inhabited by
Mussulman people. Thanks , however , to the
measures taken by the la'wful authorities ,
the bands In question were dispersed and the
Insurgent chief , HampartzQiln , as well as the
priest , Mlghlrdltch , of Kozll-Klllsse , and
other guilty persons , were arrested and
'
brought before Justices. The statement
often published in some qf the European
papers that some of the regular troops fired
on defenseless men and.women is utterly
untrue. No Individual carrying no arms
was killed. Twenty Insurgents having sur
rendered were triated with all possible con
sideration , and after their depositions before
the legal authorities of Mooch were taken
they were given their freedom. It was
t..eso twenty Insurgents ' .who Indicated the
plain where the chief , Hampartzoun , and
his accomplices were hiding. The above
facts show that among the Insurgents only
twenty surrendered and that with the excep
tion of the brigands , who broke In revolt ,
no one else was ill-treated.

UNIFORM CLASSIFICATION NECESSARY

WASHINGTON , Dec. G. The Interstate
Commerce commission transmitted Its eighth
annual report to congress today. The re
port says It Is the duty of shippers , railroad
managers and citizens generally , to assist
the government In running down violations of
the statute designed to protect their Inter
ests , It recommends the carrying corpora
tlons ba made Indictable and subject to fine
for violations ot the act ,
The commission explains the necessity of
providing a tingle classification of freights
for the whole country , saying that experience
has shown the necessity for congressional ac
tion , and supports the belief that uniform
classification depends upon the passage of a
statute requiring Its accomplishment. The
report states the railway service , which per
tains to shipping , billing and collection of
charges , especially as to the crufilc over con
nectlng roads , Is conducted with much un
certainty , lack of system and regularity , so
It justifies charges of gross carelessness und
disregard of the rights of the shipping pub
lie. Carriers ought to publish their tariff
rates and schedules plainly enough , and cm-
ploy agents sufficiently skilled to enable them
to correctly quote rates to shippers. The
fact that carriers undertake , after the collec
tion of overcharges , to adjust the same , while
right and proper In Itself , does not furnish an
excuse or Justification for the practice of over
charging to the extent to which It Is carried
on. The present method ot adjusting claims
of this character is attended with such de
lay and vexation to claimants that It Is ex
tremely unsatisfactory , resulting In great in
justice to shippers and consignees. Under
charges also result In grave Injustice.
It Is stated the provision of law relating to
through routes and rates , on account of the
meaning which has been given to It by the
courts , Is practically Inoperative , and it Is
strongly urged that the law be amended. In
order to give effect to the Intention of con
gress In respect to this matter.
After a lengthy review cf the railroad poolIng -
Ing bill the report says : "Wo submit for
the consideration of congress that pooling ,
without other remedial legislation , Is unad-
visable. Pooling under conditions to bo ap
proved by the commission and rendered
capable of easy and direct regulation , with
accompanying effective remedial legislation
we believe might bo safely tried. "
On the government ownership of rail
roads the ccmmlsslon refrains from express
ing an opinion. As to the great strike o
IS'JI , the commission states Its reasons for
not entering upn an Investigation of this
matter. The controversy Included matters
outside of the commission's jurisdiction. I
Is urged the.commission should have express
authority by statute to Investigate the acts
of all parties in relatbn to such matters.
On Juno 30 , 1894 , there were ICG roads In
the hands of receivers. While the financla
depression has been a factor In bringing
about the embarrassment of the railways , 1
is believed that many of the receiverships
were the natural sequence of mismanage
ment , overcapitalization and ill-advlset
projecting.
The commission Includes in Its repor
statistics cf railways for the year ending
Junfe 30 , 1S94. On that date there wen
174,401.77 miles of line in the United States
being an Increase during the year of 4,987.95
miles. The number of railway corporation :
was 1,890 , being an Increase of slxty-elgh
ever the previous year. The capitalization
of the roads reporting was $10GOC,235,410
the number of passengers carried was 593 ,
560,612 ; the number cf tons ot freight carrlei
was 745,119,482 ; the gross earnings wer
$1,220,751,871 ; operating expanses , $827,921 ,
299 , leaving net earnings , $392,830,575 , whlcl
Is equivalent to $2,314 per mile. The com
mission stated that all new cars ordered by
the railways are being supplied with auto
matlc couplers and a larger prcportlon
with air brakes. The accidents of the yea
show little decrease on occunM. ot the us
of automatic couplers.
Xotlco of Abrogation ot the Heclproclty
Treaty nn I Oreslmm'H Kcply.
WASHINGTON , Dec. 5. The president to
day sent tc the senate the correspondenc
with the Brazilian minister here In referenc
to the termination of the Brazilian reciproclt
arrangement , about which there has bee
some controversy. The correspondence be
gins with a note to Secretary Gresham from
Minister Mendonca of the date of Septembe
21 last , In which the minister notifies th
secretary that his government has Inforrrfc
Mr. Thompson , United States minister a
Rio de Janeiro , of Its Intention to terminal
the agreement In accordance with the stlpu
latlon therein contained regarding its dura
tlon , so that the termination shall tak
effect January 1 , 1895 , In response , unde
date of October 26 , Secretary Gresham con
ments on the fact that the Brazilian gov
crrment deems It necessary to terminate th
tieaty on January 1. He says the act o
August 28 last appeals these agreement
where they were Inconsistent with Its pro
visions. Consequently , notice of an Inten
tion to terminate them was not contem
plated and was unnecessary by reason of
their Immediate termination. The minister's
note , however , seems to Imply that the
United States and Brazil had contracted an
obligation not to terminate the arrangement
except In the manner stipulated In the ne-
got'atlons ' leading up to it. The secretary
proceeds to discuss that question at some
length. In conclusion , the secretary says the
friendly disposition of this government
toward Brazil te attested by its present tariff
legislation , placing the great bulk of Brazil
ian exports on the free list. While our im
ports from Brazil from 1890 to 1893 increassd
to the extent of nearly $17,000,000 In value ,
our exports to that country In 1893 show an
Incicaso ot less than $500,000 over 1890.

MINNEAPOLIS MURDER A DEEP MYSTERY
Pollco Can rind I.ltllo to Work On In the
Search for the Man Who Itodo with
Miss ( ling anil I.oft Her Deaden
on th Itoudsltle.
MINNEAPOLIS , Dec. C. The deep mys
tery that enshrouds the Identity of Cather
ine Glng's murderous companion In her
evening drive night before last Is appar
ently as Impenetrable as ever. It Is cer
tain that this companion was beyond the
peradvcnturo of doubt her murderer , but
thus far there Is scarcely the shadow of a
clew to his Identity.
But ono man has up to the present
turned up who ever saw the murderer. This
Is Mounted Officer Gctschell , and his was
but a fleeting glimpse of the face In the
moonlight. The officer was making his
rounds on Lake street , near Portland street
Monday evening. A carriage passed him
In which the occupants were loudly quarrel
ing. Ho glanced at the man , nnd saw that
he was thin of face , nnd had a dark heavy
mustache. More ho could not see. He now
claims that he looked at the rig as It passed
sharply , and positively Identified It as the
Goosman rig which Miss Glng hired , and
which came back to the stable empty and
bloodsoaked. The spot where the body was
found is about two miles from the spot
where Getschell claims to have seen the
pair. That Is up to date the only actual
clew to the Identity ot the stranger. Even
by that It Is by no means certain that the
couple that Getschell saw was the couple
In question. There Is just ono other clew
from which , something may vet bo learned.
SEARCHING THE WASTE BASKET.
This Is the note which Miss Glng received
In the morning nnd which , after reading , she
tore Into small bits. Her waste basket Is
now In the hands of the police , who ore
making nn effort to piece the various bits
of paper found there together. So far this
effort has not been entirely successful. Ap
parently there are several notes. Ono
signed "R" seems to nsk her to meet a
friend from St. Louis. This Initial at once
called to mind Frederick I. Reed of St.
Paul , manager of the Golden Rule store.
Reed , It Is learned , was once engaged to
Miss Glng , and gave her a diamond engage
ment ring , the one which was found In a
small chamois bag beside her corpse. For
borne reason the engagement was broken
more than a year ago. Reed has a thin
face and a heavy dark mustache. But ho
proves that ho was at work In the store all
the evening with his clerks. The police
last night sent word to Heed to come over
and enter the sweat box. Ho declined un
less a warrant was Issued for him. The
police did not feel justified In Issuing a war
rant. According to the testimony of her
friends MUs Ging had entirely broken oft v
her connection with Reed , and held no com- '
munlcatlon with him for over a year. Yet
she retained and cherished the ring. Thus
far all search for the messenger boy who
carried the note has been futile. An A. D.
T. boy has been found wh.0 carried a num
ber of notes from a man at the Nicollct
house , but ho did not carry the note Mon
day. The man for whom ho carried notes
and whose picture was found In Miss Glng's
boudoir wai Harvey Axford , a clothing
manufacturer's agent , with whom and whoso
wife Miss Glng was friendly. Ho had no
trouble In convincing the police that he
had nothing to do with the murder. Carl
J. Wnrneke , another former intlmato of
Miss GliiR , was also subjected to the sweat
box process , but without result. He satis
factorily oxp'alned his former relations with
the girl. He is now married.
ONE OTHER CLUE.
The only other suspect Is Harry Hayward -
ward , the landlord , friend and cred
itor of the dead woman. Hayward'i
admissions with reference to his finan
cial and business relations with the
woman constituted the serious part of the
case against him. His alibi Is perfect and
relieves him from direct connection with
the crime. It is established that ho was at
the theater at the time the murder won
committed. Yet he knew more of her busl
ness affairs than any other person , Ho lent
her largo sums with security that would not
bo deemed gilt-edged. He says he did so
out of friendship and with confidence in her
honesty. His last loan was $7,000 cash , nnd
It Is pretty certain that she had this amount *
on her person at the time of the murder , and ;
that the murderer took It from her. Hay-
ward's security for this was Miss Glng's
two Insurance policies ono an accident
policy for $5,000 In the Travelers , and the
other a regular life policy In the same
amount In the Now York Life. These were
asblgned to him. The police have enough
confidence In the theory that Hayward
knows more of the case that he will tell ,
and that possibly he instigated It , to hold
him under close surveillance. Mayor Eustls
who has taken charge of the case , believes
that this latter theory Is the true one. In
this connection an alleged holdup that oc
curred last April Is being recalled. Hayward -
ward was out driving with Miss Glng and
Miss Vettcr , her t'riond. They were stopped
by two men and forced to give up what they
had. It Is now claimed that Miss Glng had
a large sum of money In ready cash at that
time , and was supposed to have It on her
person , but that as a matter of fact she did
not have It with her. It Is conjectured that
the men knew the fact In this way. and ex
pected to get the money. It Is even hinted
that Ilayward gave them their Information ,
But aside from the Insurance policies there
Is not a scintilla of evidence that Hayward
desired the death of Miss Glng or would
profit by It. He was her creditor to a largo
amount , was very fond of her , and stood
better In her confidence than any one. The
theory that he Instigated the crime Is hard
to believe. Supposing It to bo true , how
could ho have Induced Miss Glng to go
driving In so mysterious a way thrice with
a hired thug , and hqw ho could have In
duced her to take with her on the fatal
drlvo so large a sum as $7,000. It Is evident
that there was a peculiar relation , not en
tirely a pecuniary ono between Miss Glng
and her mysterious companion. And so the
investigations of the mystery come around
to the point from which they started , with
the mystery as deep as ever.
IIAYWARD UELEASED.
Harry Hayward has been released from
surveillance by the police , a fact which Is
taken to mean that they have given up
any theory connecting him with the murder ,
Frederick Heed , In an Interview this mornIng -
Ing , declared that ho had never been en
gaged to Miss Glng , but simply her friend.
Ho had not seen her for six months. Ho
declared his willingness to come over from
St. I'aul at any time and tell the police all
he knew of her. The police have not yet
summoned him and apparently do not take
any stock In the theory that connects him
with the affair , The authorities ore ap
parently completely at tea.
The dead woman's financial agents Mate
eho had been In pressing need of money ,
for which Bomo one was pushing her with
in the last week , and that they had gotten
$1,000 for her. The head waiter In Marge's
restaurant tells of Miss Qlng and Hayward
meeting there as late as last Saturday , on
which occasion Miss Glng thowed nearly
13,000 In bank bills.

Glng , murdered at Minneapolis , was horn In
Auburn about thirty years ago. She left
Auburn twelve ycar4 ago and came to thin
