"AMERIcAN SYMrArurzERs" At VIENNA
We GU, the following from Vienna letteS of July
Goth, published in the n Y. Mirror:
There arrived recently in Vienna, two GermaA
Jews, calling themselves Americans, stating that
they had been delegated by the citizens of NeW
York, to convey to the Germans Of this city an exc
them in their political difficulties, and to tendev
them 100000 men and 5000 forms: which lat,es
they had brought along with them being the pro.
ceeds of public meeting held in their behalfH
No sooner was this piece of good news known tn
the University here, than its members went in
body, headed by DIR. Fusler, the Pope of Libes
ty,' to the ho,e, Stadt Frankfort, where 10 va
ascertained the noble deputies We're lodging, and
being loudly called for, the Sc New York repre-.
sentaiives" presented themselves at one of tic
windows. and addressed the crowd. in language,
for the uterance of which. three months ago, they
would have lost their heads. I" ! address the peos
pie" said one of them, " the true soveregns Of No
country, the Onl y majesty which exists
Upon this, loud cheers rent the air, anG at ne
corciuson of the harangue, the noble deputies
were escorted with martial music about the town.

hat and ribbon We're presented them, and on theip
return to their hotel, military guard of honor was
stationed before the door, These proceedings hav-
ing reached the of our dignied and able Charge
d 'Atialrs, Mr. Stiles, he Immediately took meas
ures to investigate the authority the deputies"
for their extraordinary conduct, and upon appica-
ton at the Police for their passports, found that
one of them travelled with simply declaration
before Mayor Morris in 1913, of his intention to be-
come citizen the other was resident of Munich.
These facts being known, Mr. Stiles did not delay
publishing letter disabusing the public mind with
regard 10 the matter for which act of official duty,
he had the additional satisfaction of receiving the
congratulations of the whole diplomatic corps, who
promptly called on him the following day, and ten
dered him their thanks.
Notwithstanding this letter, the University, it
seems, We're very reluctant to relinquish the pros
rect of aid from America. so literally offered by
the Deputies and having learnt, heaven knows
how, that an American from New York was then
al the hotel Siadt London, delegation of Students
was sent to me- to request ray opinion of the matter;
to whom briefly replied, that neither knew the
persons, nor had any information give them further
than what our Charge d'Affairs had communicated
to me, the purport of which was TO be found in the
letter published by him, in the sentiments Of which,
fully concurred !; but that it the easiest thing
in the world to ascertain the truth falsehOod Of
their assertions by demanding their credentials,
money, &c.;-a thing which it seems never occur

honor would have been Unnecessary
