The revival of the Dunraven controversy
Is a public misfortune , for which Lord Dun-
raven himself Is rceionslble. His trle s
now say that he meant to bring no charge
of fraud with respect to the measurement
of Defender. He merely stated certain facts ,
which he hal communicated at the time to
Mr. Ltham Fish , as representative of the
New York Yacht club. That Is not a suM-
cent an wer. The publication of them I

In England , as well as hre. One of hl9
champions says ho wants an Invstgaton.
I Is too late I the committee could nOl

only course was to retire from the contest
and allege fraud aR his reason for retrln" .

have thought It had power to 110 any of the
things It was asked to do. Now Sir George
Newnes Is said to be likely to

not There Is l.feelng enough on

international agreement to sail no more international -

Mr. Hal Calm , who came over here an

yoked what may prove to be another Inter-
national cntroversy. He delivered a lecture
Wednesday evening In New York before the
Nineteenth Century club , In the bal room
at Sherry's , on " : Iorl ResponsibIlity In the
Novel and Drama. " This he illustrated by
large references to Dickens , Hugo , Tolstol
and Hal Caine. lie condemned Dickens but
approved of the other three. Then Pro !
Drander Mathews , before the name audience -
ence . Improving a little upon Mr. Hall
Caine declared Dickens to be oren false ,
and therefore profoundly Immoral. Tea and

In England many people who worship Dck- !

know Prof. Brander Matthews , they will
know he Is an American anti resent this
American anathema upon their idol . or would
resent It If they were quite certain the Monroe -

Mr. Hal Caine , meantime , has not made
peace with Canada. The Canadian pirate
wants to bl a pIrate still , and Sir Charles
Hbbert Tupper Is still ready to all and abet

on the high seas even If It be a black flag.

service to the liberal party he was made
baronet by Lord flosabery , lves In a hanl-
some country l'le on Putney Heath , and
there handed the above statement to the
World correspondent this morning. Ho after-
warll talked quUe freely on the subject.
"I am , " he said , "comparatively new to

"No the matEr has not assumed suM-
cienty definite shape to decide that point.

That Is all I can say at present "
ALSO A DEAD GAME
Sir Georges Is not now a member of any
leading yacht club but as he said he knew a
provisIon In Ule lee : ot gift requ'res the chal.
lengo to be issued by a regular yacht club , It
Is to be premed ho Is now up for election
In some such organization. He has bon a
member of Parlament , sitting al I supporter
of Gadstone from 1885 to 1892 , representing
the great sporting center of Newmarlcet
where lee was defeated this year by Hugh
IcAlmont , owner of the famous race horse
"Isinglasa , " and one of the syndicate with
Dunraven In Valkyrie HI. I Is a peculiar
fact In view of his present intentions . that a
crusade was made upon Sir Georges at the
last election for the alleged sympathy of the
Westminster Gazette . with the purpose of the
Antbportng , League organization . which bas
been prosecuting In the courts various racing
officials . Including the stewards of the Jockey
club , for allowing bookmaking on rac tracks.
He denied this holding that he himself was
an active sportsman In many directions . lie
Is abut 60 years of age. The Westminster
Gazette , on Tuesday last had a leading ei-
tonal on Dunraven's pamphlet , the tenor of
whlc ' may be Inferred from the concluding
paragraph :
LITTLE CHEER FOR DUNRAVE .
"ObvIously It seems to us there were two
courses , and only two open to Lord Dun-
raven-either he ought to have declined to
sail again when the New York Yacht club
declined to give him the satisfaction to whIch
he thought himself entitled , or , If ho
sailed , to have been silent forever afterward.
What he did was to combine both courses
to waive his objection for the time beIng
and then to revive two months later , when ,
In the nature of the things I Is Impossible
either to prove or disprove It. The net re-
suit Is that Lord Dunraven though , of
course , he really meant nothing of the kind ,
leaves the American public with an excuse
fur alleging that I I the practice of British
sportsmen when
they lose to blame the um-
plIo and even to accuse their opponents of
cheating . two things which every British
school boy Is specially In the habit of pridIng -
leg himself that ho never do4 , and which
Lord Dunraven himself would be the nut to
repudiate . "
The pamphlet even after a week Is still
the chief sUbject of conversation at the clubs ,
and the newspapers continue to print letters
concerning I. Lord Desart and an anony-
mO\ yachtsman writes the Times this mornIng -
log urging that our committee having failed
to accede to Lord Dunraven's rEquest , either
to measure the two yacht after the conclusion -
don of Saturday's race , and learning of
Dunraven'l protest , or to put representatives
on both yachts until the aiurement net-
uily was madto I now aoped ! from complaining -
plaining , because Lord lunuve repeats the
protest and publishes the fCtl , even after In
Interval of several weeks , and that If there
can now he no adeu'te evidence to prove
or disprove his charges . the fault I with
the committee , not with Dunrl\en.
The morning newspapers , with the excep-
ton of the Times and Chronicle , have Ignored
the subject IHorlaly ; and the afternoon
newspapers have taken about the same view
lS the Westminster Gazette. The Yachts-
man today , while sustainIng Lord Dunraven's
contention , calls the publication 1.thnel.
But the Yachting World laYI : "In our
opinion the initial mistake mace by l.orl
Dunravcn was In ohalensing for the cups
and again In placing hlms1 at the mercy
of Yankee sportsmen after his previous experience -
perlenc . "
Private opinion In the .lubs Is equally
varied , but ot the . many
vrie very enaoy cpresslons
from men influential In London , I have heard
of no one which did not dQpiore Lord Dun-
raven's acton In reviewing the mater ,
among sporting men chlcfiyyI think , because
It exposes Englishmen to .hl charge that
when bten they cry out " ( faud , " but among

SCORES TIE NOD LORD.
I may add to this frankly expressed opin-
Ion that of another membtr . of the Royal
Yacht Squadron. I Is .ilven here ver-
batm : "I know Lord Dlnraven wel lie
was not personally a fit iloon to represent
the squadron or the British nation. From
the standpoint of a ) achUnlan . ho was at
best an amateur , and a. , very Incompetent
amateur. As to his charges of frauds I Is
true that he lodged a cumpiint at the earliest -
est moment , and In that h , was right , but
when no proper notice was ' taken of his
complaint he should have rfueed to mot
Defender again Indeed . when lodging the
complaint he should have elated that unless
the mater were investigated Immediately and
fully explained , he could not honorably have
any further dealing with Defeader Instead ,
after an Interval of several days , he crossed
the start In the third race and insulted the
whole American nation by not sailing over
the course. Moreover , as I understood even
after that ho was the guest for some time
of a brother of 1 member of Defender
syndicate , "
This other opinIon wl'le of Interest :
"Lord Dunraven'n claim tBfle dos not ac-
euso Mr. Ieln and the , r mbers of the
syndicate of fraud 1 abnun . ' I his charge i
of fraud means anythln , Ii means that De
fender sailed Saturday's rol I foot longer
on the water line than her ' previous or sub-
sequent omclal measurement gave. Now , I
would have required a surreptitious weight of
SOIO thirteen tons to brave given her thl
extra foot of water line. Such an extra
weight could not have. been disposed of on
Defender and possibly have e3ped during
the hours of the race time : knowledge of Mr.
IselL or coy other representative man on
Defender , Including DunraVen'i own repre-
sentatve , "
Lord Dunraven was elected last Thursday
vice president of the Yacht Racing associa- :
ton , In successIon to the laic marquis of
Waterford. This Is the highest official body
known In the EnglIsh yachting world , and
Is undoubtedly a great con\plment \ to Dun-
raven.

BERLIN , Nov. lB.-The crisis In Turkey
I watched here wIth close attentIon and a
remark uttered by Prince Bismarck last
week In conversation with Count yon Kar-
doff . the German silver champion at Fried-
rlchsruh , to the elect that Turkey Is like
a powder magazine whose explosion would
set all Europe ablaze , Is much commented
upon. The representative In this city of the
AssJclated press had a brief Interview on
Thursday last with two diplomats who arc
stationed at Berlin , \ne of them representing
a great power. The later aid that It was
not likely that a war or revolution In Turkey
wouhl take place before spring. That much ,
hD added , Is taken for granted by time
powers . but It Is probable that events will
become critical In Turko ) Recent develop-
ments have shown the sultan to be capable
of almost any coup d'etat , and something
unexpected and unforseen may occur at any
time.
Continuing , the diplomat said : "Just now
It looks as I RussIa , when the crash comes ,
will be t ; & best preparCll for the emergency
and ill be time winner In the game "
)11 ,
Time , prosecutono for lese majet ! , which
are becoming of almost daily occurrence and
which are bald In some cases upon friv-
olous grounds , are causing grave dissatisfaction -
faction among even the conservative classes ,
while they are denounced by many men
recognized as breath lberls as not only encroaching -
cloachln upon liberty of speech and the
picas , but as tending to nerve rather than
to combat socialist agitation. The complaint
among ultra-conservatIves Is that the prose-
cutons only drag the Imperial dignity down
Into the mire , and the proper course would
bo to treat the attacks with the . scorn they
d sen'o. .
CONSERVATIVE PRESS ASTONISHED.
The strong conservatIve Post and the
Cologne Gazette , bO\h \ . stAunch upholders of
the state , express astonishment at the pro-
posed prosecution of Prof. DelbiucIc for his
recent remarks In the Presslerehe Jarhar-
buken , regretting the extreme zeal of the
police In "plunging Into a pettifogging e1m-
palgn" against the socIalists. The3J uterI -
I ances arc so Innocent of any Intent to In-
suIt the authorities and arc so clearly written -
ten In the Interests of the state that If the
judges uphold the police contention "liberty
of the press" wm be a mere farcical ex-
: ' 'resslon
The extraordinary considerations which led
the judge to sentence Herr Llehkneeht at
Dreslau to four months' Imprisonment for
his recent speech at the opening of the
socialist congress there have sImply dumbfounded -
founded the liberals here. Ito said that
Llebleecht had evidently tried to frame
his remarks so as not to Involve the crime
of lese majeste and he admitted that Lleb-
knecht had not Intended to commit the
offense. Yet he continued , as there might
have been many persons among the audi-
ence who would have found In the words
an allusiOn to the emperor , he sententd him
to four months' Imprisonment.
At the coming session of the Prussian
Diet the government wi introduce a hill
modIfyIng the existing law governing aso-
ciations. After the mode of the Bavarian
law , women and minors will henceforth be
excluded from political meetings , and te t
meaning of the words "Pltcal meeting"
Is to bo enlarged and newly defined .
KILLED TIE EMPEROR'S DOG.
The police are trying to discover who
shot apparently from pure malice , Emperor
William's magnificent Russian greyhound , a
gif from the czar while the animal was In
his kennel at tIme new palace. The dog was
the emperor's favorite. Two scu10ns at
the palace who are known to have attended
anarchist meetings In Berlin have ben arrested -
rested
Smallpox has appeared In BerlIn , though
not yet epidemically. The health authorities
were notified of a dozen cases last week and
the same number of cases occurred this
wcek. The dlseasJ has been imported from
Hussla.
The practical trial of the lamburg-
American line steamer Normannla as an
auxiliary cruiser has been very satisfactory.
Next year similar experiments will be made
with other ocean greyhounds and government
contracts will be entered Into with the companies -
panics owning them If the tests are sue-
ces9ful.
The United States consul , Dwight J. Par-
telo , since his return from America has
been waited upon by a committee from the
Chamber of Commerce of Sonneberg and
asked to explain his statements charging the
exporters of that town with deliberate and
systematic unlervaluaton of their goods
Mr. Partelo replied that the charges and
their proofs were frt made by the revenue
ofcers In New York , and be refuted to
retract his own statoments.
The exports to America for the
month of October show an Increase
In nearly all the consular districts of Ger-
many. Tire exports from Berlin show near " ? I
double the amount for that month of 189f I
and three times the amount for October ,
1893.

The scene of this massacre Is far inland
