Mr.. Won Eisendecker, German minister,
said to q reporter of the Associated Press to-
day, in reply to inquiries in regard to the re-
turn of the Lasker resolution, that he carried
out his instructions. His governments
action in the matter was, he said,
two-fold, in the first place it was compelled
for important reasons relating to the internal
politics of Germany, not to send the resolu-
ton to the reiehstag, and yet 1t could not
merely retain it, since that might have i'm
piled Indifference or discourtesy, and the
course pursued by the government was GER
tainly the most courteous that the situation
permitted. The minister felt entirely salts
fed, he said, that there was no disrespect or
discourtesy intended on either side.

Improvement. at the boston s,e.n,r.


The reliable old Portland Steam Packet
Company, with commemorate enterprise to in
crease its accommodations for the travelling
public, has just completed some desirable In, :
provements at the berth of the Boston steam.
ers on Franklin wharf. In the first place the
two-storied building, occupied as the offices of
the company, has been removed to the extreme
west side OF the wharf, and in few days all
tie apartments in it will be put into state
of thorough reftment.
new passage-way has been bailt from a
point on the wharf above the freight shed and
extending within the building to the eangway
OF the steamers, suitably rallied in. The OBJ
iect OF this is to separate the passengers from
the freight department entirely, and to afford
all possible space for the convenient handling
of the large amount of freight carried.
A neat waiting room for the accomm odation
OF ladies, similar to that on the pier in Boston ,
connected with this line, has been arranged
and furnished with all modern convenieuces.
The whole freight shed, with the exception
OF the passage-way rallied in for passengers is
thus devoted to the receipt and delivery OF
freight, and it is all needed. new opening
has been made in the upper end of the shed
for the special use of the teams of Mr.. Emery
G. Chase, the forwarder of all freight intended
to go by any one of the railroads running out
OF the city.
The day line to Boston has proved perfect
success every way, an average of two hundred
passengers having been transported each way
daily. This is a very enjoyable short ocean
trip, especially for the large class of "stay at
homes" or 't-get-aways," and they take
advantage of it very generally. The meals
served on board are pronounced to be very
nice in quality of cooking and manner of
serving, and the sea breezes give one euch an
appetite.
