Reasons for Persecution.
CHICAGO, December 3.-The Inter Ocean
has interviewed prominent Jews on the per
s~ecution of Jews in Germany, and finds a
concurrence in the following points That
the Jews are as economical and thrifty in
Germany as elsewhere, and have suffered
less from financial depression, which now
d~istracts that country than other classes OF
citizens; after the Franco russian war the
country went wild on speculation; the Jews
were more conservative, and when the crash
came, better prepared to weather the storm,
and consequently recovered quickly. This
fact provoked the jealousy and hostility Of
the German people, who truly claimed that
the Jews nearly monopolized the commerce
and nance Of the country. They were also
| found to occupy the first places in literature
and learning, aud on this account, too,
there was a jealousy which the Government
covertiy fostered. The Governments
policy is to divert by this means the atten-
ton of the Socialists from their government
against the Throne. The interviewed He
brews here say that the Jews in this coun-
try can do nothing in the premises, but &C.
tion, if any, must come from the Christians,
who should and probably will protest 10 the
name of all hat is fair, decent and manly
in the Nineteenth Century.
Financial.
New York, December 3.--The Bulletin
says; Notwithstanding the hopes of yes
terday, that the money squeeze had culmi-
mated, there has been no day when borrow
ers have paid higher rates than to-day. nor
when there has been greater difficulty in
getting loans. A very large part of all the
money borrowed on stocks to-day cost a
commission, and yet with this money the
market rates for bills on Lon don were ad.
vanced half a cent for sixty days, and a
full cent for a shorter date. 1t looks as il
the limit of utilizing London capital to
support New York speculations was not far
OH, as we Know that several influential Tor
eign bankers to-day got word from London
| that anything like a continuance of the
present movement of gold from London
here, would be met by decisive action on
the part of the Bank of England.

the President is a good deal troubled, ovei
the problem of forcibly retiring army off.
GERS, who are past 62 years of age. The
laws give him power to retire them, but he
is a kind-hearted mar and don't like to ex.
ercise this power, when the officers them.
selves object. The retirements under con.
sideration now are Ord, Mcdowell and

ticers oppose it bitterly and are bringing
powerful influence to bear against their re.
tirement from the service.
