Solicitor General GoOde authorizes
the statement in regard to the alleged
charges against him before the Senate
judiciary Committee that they are un-
qualifedly false, and that he courts the
fullest investigation. lie has never had
any connection. direct or indirect. with
any election frauds in Virginia or else
where, and has had no knowledge Of
any such frauds. In regard to
his contest for a seat in the Forty
fourth Congress he says that the seat
was awarded to him by the House
after the fullest investigation, and
that there was no intimation from any
source Of any fraud, or any other
charge rejecting upon his character as
man of honor and integrity. The
contest turned chiefly On the admissi-
bility Of the maynard vote. which he
claimed had been carried by intimida-
ton and coercion. AS to the charge
that he accepted fee Of $500 for OBJ
tanning an office for a man, he saws it
is utterly untrue. lie has accepted no
fee from any one for any such service.
Mr.. Goode understands that the charges
referred to have been made by Senator
Malone, who has been for years his
personal enemy. lie says he has made
an effort to obtain exact information as
to the filing of these charges against
him, but thus far without success.

men of foreign birth have been dis

eminent dock-yards. This action was
taken because Of disclosures in the case
Of Captain Sarauw, recently convicted
Of having sold plans and information of
German Notifications to Major GrizOt,
Of the French general staff. Captain
Sarauw is Dane, and no man Of Ger
man birth has yet been arrested for his
offence. 1t is thought that no persons
of foreign birth will be permitted to re-

National schools tr Poland,

tBy Anglo. America cable 10 the Dispatch
BERLIN, February 24.--The lower
House of the Prussian Diet to day dis
cussed the bill relating to teachers in
the national schools in Polish Prussia.
DR.. Won Gosslon, Minister Of Public
instruction and Ecclesiastical Affairs,
decided that the Government was com.
PEELED to take firm and clear stand.
in view Of the continuous attacks Of the
Poles. Leniency and sympathy were
impossible. The best way to assimilate
the two people was TO insist upon a
common language. 1t was therefore
necessary to have the teachers in Poland
thoroughly acquainted with the Ger
man, and to eliminate the Polish litera-
ture from the schools. Unqualified
teachers would be placed in other posi-
tons where they would be more useful.
No injustice was intended to the vested
rights. On the contrary the Govern
ment would pursue policy Of progress
and not Of retrogression.
