LETTER FROM GERMANY.

LEIPZIG, June oUtn, 1914.
10 the Editor of tie Journal:
Alas for the advance of civilization With rap
id strides the German Nation advances on and on,
till what but few short years ago was init oduced
with great and unanimous joy, becomes thing
disgusting, forbidden and despised ! The Car
nival this year was failure. To be sure his
foolish Highness, Prince Carnival X, rode it'll
numerous followers through the principal streets
and was hailed by one Or two half-clad urchins,
with shrill cries of boyish delights but his former
splendor is gone. He has had his death thrust in
beingdeclared fallible. He has been declared sub
ject TO "Police Regu atons. Whence his untme-
ly death. In former years Leipzig has had Car
nival train of followers, who have been very
amusing to spectators from the windows, but
rather destructive TO dress coats and ladies'
owing to frequent application of chalk and the
use Of internal noisy machines. This year sever
al choleric old gentlemen the police board, de-
clared the same q noisy, useless expense to the
state, and disgrace to peaceful and unprotected
females. Therefore we must be contented with
the procession alone. To youth from the green
bills Of Maine, who had never seen q German
fantastic procession, the sight was rather novel
and interesting. After proper advance guard,
came the Minister of War in a team full of all
his implements of torture, with warlike emblems
and notices. Then came several local hits u
none very funny. Que team was a splendid pal
ace, drawn by four horses in which pig dressed
10 black and white stripes, promenaded to the Ma
tional airs. All the followers wore caps alike
which were of all colors and made quite show
During the passage Of the train through thu
streets the people threw paper, cut in small bits
down on the heads of the followers, and severa
curiously dressed fellows with huge beer mugs fo
Golfers, collected money for the poor, from every

SAN FPANCIsoo, July 24-midnight.-
Throughout the evening all that part Of
the city north OF Market street has been
perfectly quiet, but south Of that thor
oughfare some disturbances have oo.
Cured. About 9 o'clock a crowd Of
hoodlums collected and wrecked a Chi
nese house on Newtoma street, near
Fifth. They then gathered on Fifth
street, near the United States mint. A
few officers we're sent to dispense them,
but we're unable to effect anything. RI
Inducements were sent out, and after a
severe club exercise she mob broke.
Some two or three hundred of them sui
s%equently started up Mission street, and
from Eighth to Twelfth cleaned out every
| Chinese house on the street, the occu-
pants abandoning them to secure per.
sonal safety. Arriving at Twelfth street
they were Joined by crowds who had
been depredating on Brannon, and the
combined force moved to the corner OF
Twelfth and F,lsom, where they tore
town and sat fire to the Chinese match
factory and laundry. Here they were
again attacked and roughly used by the
police, and at last advices quiet bad been
restored. The mob dispersed and appa-
rently sought their homes.
About ll:l5 pm. a wash-house in the
extreme northwestern portion Of the city
was fred and burned down, but il was
apparently the act Of other parties, as
the police on their arrival at the scene
found no trace Of a crowd or further dis
turbance.
At this hour, 1850, eve, thing is re-
ported quiet in every section, and it il
thought there will be no further trouble
during the night.
The outrages thus far seem to have
been committed by unorganized gangs
Of vicious hoodlums. The %workingmen'i
party Of the city Avow their opposition
to all such proceedings, and in case o.
necessity profess their r .diness as Q
body to assist the friends OF order. In
this they are undoubtedly to a steat ex.
tent sincere, as it is well known that the

so as to aid the civil authorities
met the approval Of all. Severa'
military commanders now have am.
pie forces at their disposal, and
other troops are within reach to re,
~ipforce them without delay IN case
Of necessity. The War Department
has ordered a strong force of the
Ninth Infantry to proceed to Rock
Island, ILL.,, and there await further
orders. Eight additional compa-
mics of infantry have been ordered
to st. Louis. Six companies of the
Twenty-second Infantry, on duty in
the Sioux country for some time
past, are on their return to the De-
partment of the Lakes, and have
been ordered to stop at Chicago.
The employees of the Chesapeake
and Ohio, Piedmont air line and
Richmond, and the fredericksburg
and Potomac roads have signed a
paper d~eprecating the condition Of
affairs in the Northwest.
The strike of railroad employees
occurred, as previously agreed
upon, at noon yesterday at Kansas
City and no freight trains have
been allowed to leave the city.
A reply was given last evening
to the application Of the employees
of the Northern Central and Balti-
more and Potomac railroad for the
restoration of wages paid previous
to the recent reduction. Colonel
Scott says the application would be
laid before the board of directors.
The shopmen then resumed their
work.
Such was the situation all over
the large area of country where
strikes have occurred up to this
morning. Our noon dispatches to-
day give later and interesting par
ticulars. The strikers have greatly
strengthened their cause by their
orderly conduct and the aid they
have given the civil authorities at
several points in s~uppreSsing the
roughs and tramps who took advan-
tage of h eeccasion to rob, plumber,
and make disturbances, They seem
determined to hold out, but
in all cases where concessions
or promises have been made by the
railroads the men have gone quietly
to work. 1t is highly probable that
one road after another will restore
the schedule of wages prevailing be-
fore the last reduction until all viii
have to yield. Now that the public
mind is thoroughly aroused a gen.
eral readiustment between capital
and labor becomes necessary to the
peace and welfare of the whole
country. Let this be doue on an
equitable tasis - upon the prin-
clple OF live and let live.
if the railroads cannot afford
to pay their faithful employees
living wages let them raise the tar.
if on freights and passengers, as
they do anyhow whenever it suits
-
their purposes. 1t is a gratifying
fact that there was no bloodshed
yesterday, and it iS to be hoped that
no more will occur. With the ex-
c9ption of a shameful demonstra-
ton by white and negro roughs at
Louisville last night no disturb
s1ces have taken place in the South.
This is the truly law-abidirg, con-
servative section Of the country,
where the OK is not muzzled, and
where the laborer generally receives
the fri worth of his toll.

Galveston, July 25. = Specials to the

strike on the Texas and Pacific railroad.
The men demand three months back
pay and the withdrawal Of the late order
for ten per cent. reduction of wages.
The shops at Marshall were closed at
noon yesterday and no freight trains
have passed over the road since then.
The strikers are conducting themselves
in a p~eacesble manner. No violence is
apprehended, They are very ssuguine
of having their wages restored. 1t is
evident that they have the sympathy Of
the people. The mail trains only will be
allowed to run.
