GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.

England Will BE Called on to Pay for the
Egyptian Agreement with the Sultan.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LONDON, Dec. lit is admitted in minis
teral circles that for the satisfactory conclusion
of the new convention which Sir Drummond
Wolff brought home from Egypt with him.
something has to be done at Constantinople. and
that there must be certain confidential explana-
tons between the British ambassador and the
Sultan as to the policy of England in the event
of belligerent possibilities upon the Danube
before the document can be executed. In.
deed, 1t is said to-day, on good authority that
there are serious doubts as to whether it is like
ly to receive the Sultan's sanction in any form
while the political affairs of Europe continue
to be disturbed, and further complication,
which it is seen may hinder the signing of the
convention. is that those representatives of other
powers who do not seriously dislike the conven-
ton may work upon the fears Of the Sultan with
a view OF keeping the matter open.

THE CAMPBELL CASE.
Lady Colin Again Occupies the Box and Tel
titles In Her Own Behalf.


titles In Her Own Behalf
LONDON. Dec u.-Lady Colin Campbell re-
sumed her testimony to-day in her action for di
vorce against Lord Colin Campbell. She denied
having ever spoken to the nurse, Mrs Duffy,
about the methods persons adopted to prevent
maternity. The witness said she refused to
continue relations with Lord Colin because of
the physical and moral suffering it entailed upon
her. She told Lord Colin if he ever used force
to compel continuance of the relations, he
would find her dead on the follow
ing morning. She would. she said prefer death
at her own hands to suffering again as
she had suffered at his hands. The witness
added that she told Lord Colin, further, that
she preferred to live apart from him under the
same roof to avoid scandal, but declared that if
there was 20 be a separation it must be open and
public. She would not permit Lord Collins fam
lily to give any version of the affair that suited
them. The witness was never accused by her
husband of any improperly until the family
meeting in 1883.
On GROSS examination she said the bool, writ
ten by her was a child's book. It was illustrated
by Kate Creenaway, and eight editions of it had
been printed The witness began writing for
the Saturday Review in 1880. She wrote three
articles every week. The witness really meant
that she would commit suicide when she said she
would be found dead next morning if Lord Colin
ever attempted to force her to occupy the same
apartment with him. She admitted having gone
into society once while suffering from disease,
and that she wrote in her dairy: Enjoyed my
self hugely" She made UP her householder
pense book mostly on Saturdays
At this point defendants counsel produced
one of the plaintiffs household expense books,
which showed that entries were made on Sat
urday. Aug. H. but that they were made on
Monday, Aug. a.
The witness said the Duke of Marlborough
still visited her father, mother and brother. She
denied the statement made by one of her serv-
ants that, being notified Of the arrival Of guest
while she was in the drawing room with General
Butler, she went to the door and said to the
maid. mot at home" 1t was Lord Colin him
self who selected DR.. Bird to attend the witness
The Judge decided that Mr.. Finlay, defend
ants counsel. was entitled to see the copies of
Lady Collins Ga;aries, but that some of the entries
ought not to be published. One of the entries
read described somebody's party as "a CHASTITY
affair" and another entry pronounced another
evening party deadly dull"

THE BERLIN WAR SCARE.

1t Was Caused by Government Newspapers
Attacking Certain Politicians.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LONDON, Dec 11.-Advices from Berlin
state that the break in continental securities.
and especially Russians, on Wednesday last,
was caused by editorial articles in government
organs calling attention to the anticipations of
great war with which the public mind in all
the principal countries in Europe was filled,
and endeavoring to show that the long looked
for struggle between Germany, France and
Russia could not be much longer postponed
The pan-Slavic movement in the East was
painted in dark and threatening colors, leaving
the impression that q life-and-death strug-
gle between Russia and Germany might
begin at any moment. The French
people were represented as being bent on moth
ing but revenge. The true inwardness of these
articles has since transpired, for these same news
papers the next day. and since, have contained
editorials making a cruel attack on the German
opposition, and alleging that those who differed
from the government party were not patriots
Herr Won Stauffenberg, one of the most respect
ed of Germans was singled out for attack Herr
Won Stauffenberg's offense was that he
expressed apprehension that the increase
of the military budget might prove to be a
mere Protectionist trick to raise certain taxes
which are special favorites of the Junker politi-
clans Some very queer tricks have been played
by the German Protectionist party during the
last few years, and the Liberals, such as Won
Stauffenberg, Eugene Richter and Bamberger,
have more than once given the Protectionist
leaders a bit of their mind But the Liberal
leaders have never placed difficulties in the way
of necessary military expenditure. German
Liberals in opposition are a little extreme
in their conduct and language. but
how can they be expected to be moderate when
Bismarck sets the fashion. eagerly followed by
his disciples. of calling them traitors and other
equally offensive and equally unjustifable
names9 1t seems that the whole scenic apparatus
of Russian war, French war, aud general desc
lation, was conjured up by the writer's as party
weapon to put down Herr Won Stauffenberg and
his adherents. Liberal leaders have not been
frightened out of their convictions, and such at
tacks as the above will not contribute toward the
German ideal ''ein einig volk Won bruder."

RUssIA's PETROLEUM KINGS.

Something About the Great FIN T.s: 90
trolls -. nIuscovite Oil Trade.
New York SUM-
The cable dispatch last week reporting that
the Standard Oil Company intended to buy
the oil interests of Nobel Bros, of Russia, did
not look plausible. and was promptly denied in
this city. If it were true it would indeed be
note worthy news, for Nobel Bros. are the kings
of the Russian petroleum industry. 1t was
they who revoutionized the oil business at
Baku and made the Caspian petroleum for
midable rival of the American product.
The Nobel family are Swedes and they have
remarkable record. The father inverted a
torpedo which he sold to Russia for a large sum
Of money. His son Alfred, an experirnen tai
chemist, is famous as the inventor of dynamite
Two other sons, Ludwig and Albert, created the
petroleum industry of Baku in its present en-
larged form. Eleven years ago. when they went
to Baku the town and it's oil refineries we're
scarcely known This is what the Nobels did to
make Baku and its petroleum famous.
Oil at that time was delivered to the refneries
from the wells, twelve miles distant, in ox-carts.
The Nobes startled old fogies by building pipe
line, and to-day there are sixty miles of pipe and
an average daily discharge of 1000, 900 gallons
of crude oil at Baku. Their second reform was
an improved method of boring, which doubled
the yield of oil. Their third innovation was to
build cistern steamers on the Caspian which
carried the refined product in bulk up the Voga
river thus superseding the clumsy and expen-
sive system of transport in barrels Now oil Is
constantly being pumped on board Nobel Broth
ers steamers at Baku and the entire load of
5000. 900 is shipped in four and half hours
Then the Nobels organized a system for the
cheap transportation of their oil far and wide in
Europe. The product is pumped from the els
tern steamers into tenk cars each carrying ten
tons of oil. This one firm is now constantly
each train. Their fifth innovation was also q
startling novelty.
During the winter months no oil can be carried
into Russia over the frozen Volga This is the
very time, of course. when the greatest quantity
of oil is needed The Nobels, therefore, built in
various parts of the empire twenty-six great
storage depots, which are 80 large that they will
hold Russa's entire oil supply for year. In tn Q
summer these depots are filled with OIL which is
distributed by carloads during the winter
months all over the empire The Nobels' oil is
sold largely in Germany, and in Russia the firm
is now selling a. 900 gallons year.
Here is an illustration of the perfect system
to which these men have reduced their great
business. In their Office at st. Petersburg hangs
large scale map of the Russian empire It is
the business of of their clerks to mark these
maps, with little flags, the position of all the oil
trains in accordance with the telegraphic infor-
nation he is constantly receiving The members
of the firm are therefore able at any moment to
tell the exact position Of each of their sixty oil
trains
