WASHINGTON, December 24.--The
Evening Star has the following: Con
sui. q snoral Mueller. whose report upon
the feeling OF the German government
towards the United States is likely to
lead to diplomatic correspondence be-
tween the two countries, and probably
to demand on the part of Germany for
Mueller's recall. comes from the same
town with Representative Foran of
Ohio, who knows him very well. Mr..
Foran says that the report is very char
acteristic Of the writer, whom he asserts
is man of very advanced liberal views
aud believes IN Republican form of
government. lie il what was known as
a Forty Fighter. having been obliged to
leave Germany, his native country, on
account OF participation in the revolution
OF l84S, when the liberal Germans
strove for constitutional form OF gov
ernment. In this country his Repubii.
can ideas have had full growth, as well
as an antagonism to Monarchial govern
ment. When he went back TO his ma
tive land as o representative OF this
country he carried with him all OF his
American ideas. Foran says further
that he would not have been received
by the German government but for the
fact that during the Franco Prussian
war he visited the Fatherland, and
though an ardent Republican, his sympa-
thies In that struggle were with his own
people, and he rendered the German
soldiers valuable service in the hospitals
and elsewhere. On account OF this the
German Government extended to him a
pardon for previous ofienses against the
government, so that when appointed
Consul General to represent the
United States there was no
objection raised against him. 1t is
felt to be pretty certain, says the Star,
that Germany will demand Mueller's re-
call, aud this Government will have to
comply, but Bayard will not do so with
out making 1t pretty plain. We do not
recognize the right OF any nation to re
strict the liberty OF speech OF an Ameri-
can citizen, and it is not held by
the United States to be an offense to en-
terrain Republican ideas. 1t is thought
that this episode will render our rela
tions with Germany still more strained
and that she will be placed on our list
with Austria.

THE COLON STORM.
Twenty-Efght vessels and sixty
Lives Lost.


New YoRK, December 24.-Captain
Peter Nordsnfeldt and crew Of the
Swedish barketine Harman, which was
destroyed in the harbor of Colon during
the storm December third, arrived in
this city to-day by the City Of Para. To
a reporter Captain Nordenfeidt told
the following story: Owe arrived at
Colon November 26th with cargo Of
coal. We had discharged few tons in
the afternoon OF December I'd. when the
wind began to blow from the southwest.
A heavy swell from the sea set in and
compelled the lighter to leave the ship
and seek shelter nearer the shore. The
wind al q -e'clooh had shifted TO the
northwest, and the rain fell in torrents
The sea became angrier every moment
and finding the ship beginning to drift
threw out a second anchor. This did
not hold US SO at clock we let go third
anchor. We paid out all the chain we
dared, but as there was vessel loaded
with explosives lying at anchor Just at
our stern, we had to be mighty careful.
At 10 o'clock the sea broke over the
ship. Mountains OF water tumbled over
us. and for s time II didn't look as
though we would keep ahoat till morn
ing. When daylight came | climbed up
into the rigging and looked about. The
sea was scattered with wrecks. Six yes-
sells we're going to pieces on reefs. just
beyond the bar l saw vessel bottom
upwards, with number of men cliDging
TO it for life. Concluding that we were
going to sink with our cargo, we put
out signals. In the afternoon we OBJ
served an American three-mssted
schooner drifting directly toward
our ship. Seeing that a collision
was inevitable, we set sail and run the
ship ashore. We struck the reef and
cut the rigging overheard. The Amsrl-
can schooner Veteran drifted against
our ship aud part Of her rigging fell
npon our deck. sent one OF our sail
ors ashore with line, and crowd
there received him. We then took our
aongboats and went ashore. Here we
found Captain Pierson Of the Swedish
bark General Nicholas and Signor Ok
holm of the stranded Norwegian bark
Douglas Castle. They insisted on TAX
ing ouri boats and making an attempt to
save the lives Of the crew Of the British
bark Synton. They were unsuccessful
at that time, but the next day they
reached the vessel and rescued the cap
itain's wife and child and three sailors.

view of the fears entertained that an
attack would be made on the peaceful
Indians within the San Carlos reserva-
tion by the people Of Arizona, Governor
Zulick to-day issued proclamation in
which he says; 'fIt is with regret that
feel called upon to notice officially the
inaammatory appeals made to the peo-
Pile OF this Territory upon our Indian
difficulties" He earnestly requests all
citizens to refrain from such unlawful
attack, as that would only aggravate the
present troubles. He concludes: 81

The Iiauar men.

New York, December 24.-An even
ing paper says that on account OF the re-
fusal on the part Of the brewers OF this
State to oppose the bill pending in the
State Legislature, making the whisky
license $1,000 and the beer license $3.50,
war is about to be declared by the IL
quor men against beer, and that they
threaten to refuse TO sell malt liquors in
whisky saloons. and to call to their aid
the distilling interests, not only in this
State, but elsewhere in the country.
The paper predicts fierce war of vast
proportions between these two branches
of the liquor interests. 1t states that
numerous attempts have been made to
compromise their difference, but without
success, and final meeting. concerning
the outcome Of which little hope is en-
tertained. will be held next week.

WASHINGTON, December "a. - The
Treasury Department has purchased

for coinage into standard dollars. The
silver dollar is now quoted at 79A

In the case Of William j. Hamilton
Va. the Northern Pacific Railway Com
papy, Involving the claim OF a settler TO
tract Of land within the limits of q
railroad grant, which was resisted by
the company ON technical grounds re
specting the original settlers qualifca-
tions as a pre-emptor. Commissioner
Sparks holds that settlement claim
proven by occupation and improvement,
although not placed on record, Axempts
the land from withdrawal, aud that the
railroad company cannet bo held to at
tack the settlers qualifi iations or com
pliancs with the law under the public
land laws of the United States. The
principle Of this decision is that lands
occupied by actual settlers. as well as
lands held under claims OF record, are
excepted from the railroad grant and

railroad, even if the settlement of the
claim should afterward prove to be in
any manner defective as against the
United States. Commissioner Sparks
further holds that the question would
then be between the original or subse.
quent settler. as the case may be, and
the Government, and can never be
made question between settler and
railroad company. In other words, that
land grant railroads cannot pursue set
tiers and challenge the validity of their
claims as against the United States.
