bilt has postponed his pleasure trip to
Yellow Stone Park on account of the un-

you heard any talk of an alleged plan to
kidnap you in the west and hold you for q
ransom" The story goes that such re
ports have had something to do with your
change of plans. Vanderbilt said: Now.
as to this ransom business, it is simply i'm
possible. Why, they couldn't kidnap me
if they wanted too. No one knows five
minutes ahead where l am going to be- l
have got things so fixed that l can go in
any direction any moment, so you see they
could not lay any trap for me-

LONDON, Jan. 29.~-A Berlin CORES
pondent of the Daily Ne,os says: The
Gar is making efforts to bring about the
former friendly relations between Russia
and Germany" The Berlin correspondent
in the morning Post says the visit of
Degiers to Vienna resulted in a complete
understanding between Russia and Austria
on leading political questions, also in the
arrangement of the difference regarding
| the navigation of the Danube. The EN-
peror William opposed the plan of Gen,
Won Moltke, chief of the staff, for the
strengthening of the fortification at Kiel.
LONDON, Jan. 29.--The bark Royal Tar,
from Philadelphia, for Liverpool was
driven into the Peniarth Rood with heI
decks swept and other damage done. One
| man was lost.
Ten bodies were washed ashore near
Peniarth, and steamer is supposed to have
foundered with all hands, twenty IN num-
Der. near Partheawl. The vessel is sup
posed to be the Star Blackwatch, sunk off
Mumblehead, and twenty six persons
drowned She was 1897 tons and belongs
to Cardiff The storm continues.
VIENNA, Jan ga placard was posted
few days ago in the public garden at
st. Petersburg, enjoining the people to
| avoid places frequented by court, lest they
should be hurt by anything that might
happen.
The Neue FaeS Presse Vienna, saws
Preparations for Degiers visit to Vienna
for the settlement of various questions
negotiated through the Austrian embassa-
dor at st. Petersburg. According to this
account it was agreed that Servia and
Montenegro should for the present be sat
isfed. Russia will support Austria at the
London conference on the Danubian Ques-
tion and at Constantinople concerning the
question of the junction of Austrian and
Turkish railways. n return Austria will
make no objection to the eventual juno
ton of Bulgaria and eastern Roumelia
The same paper hears that Degiers in his
interview with Bismarck at Varsein
touched upon the entry Of Russia
into the Austro German alliance,
but was met with refusal.
They are mostly inclined to attribute to it
considerable Importance. They point to
the length of his interviews with Count
Kalnocky, the Austro-Bulgarian foreign
minister, Prince Henry VII. OF Russia. the
German ambassador to Vienna, the arch
dukes, the emperor and others, and to the
circumstance that about the same time the
Grand Duke Nicholas had an interview
with Bismarck at Berlin, and a majority
of the special dispatches from the conti-
nent to London newspapers, state that the
prevailing opinion is that whatever was
conceded by Kalnocky to Degiers. was con-
ceded with the full concurrence and ap-
proval of Germany.

A WIFE'S CRIME

OKEMos, Mich, Jan. 29.-In Bath town
ship, Clinton county, on Friday night
David Clark, farmer, was shot and in
stantlY killed by his wife. The parties
have lived unhappily for some years, often
coming to blows. The disappointment of
Saturday arose from the wife's determine
ton to administer medicine other than that
prescribed by the attending physician to
one of her children. The childs illness
continued to grow worse. until she was
supposed to be dying. While Clark was
endeavoring to restore her to conscious
ness, his wife got revolver from an ad-
joining room and deliberately shot her
husband through the back. The mur-
derer was arrested Immediately afterwards.

HOUSE.
WARRINGTON, Jan 29--In the house
under the call of states a number of bills
were introduced and referred, also num-

Among the latter was one by Belmont, On.
Y } from foreign affairs, being his own
minority opinion regarding the Joint reso-
luton recently reported to the house by
the committee, providing conditionally for
the termination of the treaty between the
United States and the Hawaiian govern
ment- Belmont takes the ground that
there are grave objections to interference
by congress with the treaty, and reviews
the proceedings before the house commit
tee, showing that the evils complained of
in connection with the treaty are not due
to its defect, but to the fact that consular
and customs officers administering the law
have been incompetent or corrupt
He says that the evidence goes to show
that under this treaty had been perpetrat-
ed one of the most colossal frauds against

the case, farmers living in prairie
country trust to luck and never think
of the danger surrounding them until
they see the fire fend sweeping down
upon them, and then they stand help
less spectators Of the destruction of
their hard earned accumulati0ns. OF

NAVAL WARFARE.

The influence of Naval conflicts in
determining the current of human at
fairs has never been fully estimated.
Nations invincible on land. often sue
cumbed ina single decisive onset at
sea and faded into insignificance. A
discounted and panic-striken army
frequently retrieved its fortunes in a
new trial of strength; rarely was this
true of fleet. The hitherto uncon-
auerable Persians received so signal a
check at Salamis, the earliest memoir
able sea fight on record, that Aerxes
rent his garment and wept. Actlum
sealed the fortunes of Antony and
Cleopatra. Looking down the ages
we see Lopanto, where Mohammeda-
nism and Christianity contend for the
mastery Of the world. The Cross
wins and the Crescent sinks into de.
cav. A little later the invincible
Armada is wrecked by wind and wave
and English prowess, and Spain sees
herself Frustrated never to rise again.
Had the Battle of the Nile been a
French victory the map Of the Old
World would have been changed, and
in our own day, had the Monitor fail
ed to meet the Merrimac, who could
have foretold the consequences
The history of Naval Warfare has
hitherto been neglected study be-
cause the facts were inaccessible ex'
cept to privileged few who were
able to possess large libraries. we
are Glad, however, that this is no long
er the case.
A new volume has just made its an
pearance, entitled ''Naval Battles
Ancient and Modern u. G. McCurdy
& Co. Publishers, Philadelphia, Ia.'
Cincinnati, O., Chicago, ILL.,, and st.
Louis, Mo-, see advertisement IN an
other column), which gives clear ana
concise history of all the most noted
sea fights of the world. The author
is Medical Director Shipper of the U.
s. NJ. who has seen more than thirty
years of active service, and whose en-
inent literary ability is very generally
conceded.
