German Barmaids,

1t is only during the last twenty
years that barmaids have become COM
mon in Germany, but now there is
hardly restaurant in Berlin and its
suburbs where there are no female at
tendants. Their number is given as at
the least 10000. nearly all of whom
are offered only board and lodging, al
though they are compelled to wear
pretty and fashionable clothes and
work from early in the morning till
late into the night. In the great ma
jOrity of cases, says a writer, the bar
maids not only receive no pay at all.
but every glass of beer, every slice of
meat they may take during the day
they have to pay for at the same rate
at which it is served to any visitor.
Their only receipts are the gratuitics
given to them by the visitors, and it is
therefore their chief endeavor to at
tract and detain as many of the latter
as possible. OF course such Il life is
demOralizing, and most of the women
fall into evil habits,

Of the tariff he said: 1.-The intro
duction, free of duty, of such woods as
we do not produce would stimulate
manufactures of goods requiring the
use of those we do produce, and there
fore would be benefit to home pro

approaches very nearly the same sen
timent as Presi ent Cleveland's letter
of acceptance. 1t is as follows: "An
duty paid upon such articles goes di
rectly to the cost of the article when
manufactured here, and must be paid

if. or how, if our necessary dutiable
goods cost us, for the current year $500
under the high protective tariff, and
would cost US only 5000 without such
protection, are we benefited. You and
I and every American citizen, have
paid our hundreds of and thousands of
dollars, under this SO called p elective

above their proper cost, which sums so
paid have been taken behind our backs

this vast sum of millions upon mill

and every year since the close of the

Can't you see how they have become
such millionaires Why, you all, and
everyone that knows anything about
it, knows that the average duty on all
dutiable goods is little over AZ cents
on every dollars worth that comes to
us from home or abroad. Everyone
knows that of all this vast amount of
excessive cost we pay, only one-fourth
to one-third goes into the government
treasury, for the reason that only about
one fourth of such goods come from
abroad md the other three fOurths are
made ut home. So you see to Ger

gets the other two thirds to three
fourths of said excessive price, through

tariff. You, and everyone knows that

News.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-Secrotary Villas
was seen at his residence and his atton-
ton was called TO a statement which was
current, that in the report OF the Indian
Commission some startling revelations
would be made which would astonish peo-
pie. The secretary was engaged upon his
report when called upon.
He said that he had not received any re-
port. A preliminary draft which he tele-
graphed for, so as TO embody il in his an.
nual report, was all the information he
had on the subject. Upon being asked II
what he had received was of startling
nature, Secretary Villas smiled and said:
Certainly not" Capt. Pratts views con-
corning the Sioux Reservation are 80 well
known here, however. that the general
features OF the report can be fairly antici-
pated.
1t is understood that Capt. Pratts re-
port will advocate radical measures in
dealing with those questions. lie has been
long identified with the work of educating
and elevating the red man, but his ideas
OF late have undergone a decided change
This sentiment, II seems is also shared by
other philanthropists who OF late years
have been prominently identified with this
work. Capt Pratts report, II Is thought,
will recommend the passage OF bill con.
forming as nearly rs possible 10 the propo.
sition of Indians, 80 far as tho price OF
the land is concerned. and making il law
without any further reference 10 their
wishes. This will be done in order 90 pre-
vent the Indians from postponinga further
settlement OF the matter.
Capt Pratt is also expected 10 recon-
mend that the "squaw men white men
who are married TO Indian women and
who live on the reservation shall be driven
away and made 10 support, themselves.
The influence oi these men, II Is claimed,
Is always hurtiul 90 the Indians, and in
the present ease they are strongly sus.
pected Of having used this influence "a
prevent a consummation Of the sale. In
other words, they are believed TO have
been In the pay OF certain railroad inter
csts which looked with dislayOr upon the
partition Of the reservation.
More than this, Capt Pratt believes
that the Indian has been pettCd and cod
died more than is good for him. 20 thai
the white man knows what Is good iOl
him better than he does himself. and that
In future he should be made more sell
sustaining and held 10 n strict accounta-
bility for his actions. This view, ~ | have
stated, appears 10 be shared by many OF
the representatives OF the Indian societies,
who are now ready 10 acknowledge that
the lenicnt method OF dealing with the
Indian In the past has retarded rather
than hastoncd his progress.

1 FRENCH SCANDALS.
|The Republican Factions Quarreling
Ind the Sinister Shadow of Bou-
langer Steadily Increasing.
People Are Exercised Over Gilly's
Recent Charges.
An Agent of the Panama Canal
Company Tells Tales
In Which Certain Ministers of the Gov
ernment Are Put in an Unenviable
Light-De Lesseps About to
Ruin Himself.

q Nsw YoRK, Nov. 23.-A Paris special
10 the Times says While the sinister
shadow Of Boulanger is steadily increasing
in the land the Republican faction seems
TO he on the brink of another quarrel
over financial scandals, which threatens to
be even worse than that under which
President Grevy and NJ. Wilson went
down. People are talking more about
Numa Gilly's wholesale charges than any
thing else, in spite OF the fact that his
sweeping accusations against the poll
ticians Of the Right and Left do not seem
30 far TO have much proof back OF them.
But from what we learn tonight, much
worse is 10 come.
The Deputies today all received a circu-
lar letter signed by +. Martin, ex-agent Of
the Panama Canal Company, asserting
that Messrs Baihaut and Bar be, formerly
Ministers Of Public Works, had each re-
ceived during the past two years
large bribes in return for the official
and parliamentary assistance they had
rendered the Panama Canal Company. In
addition, NJ. Martin says that fully fifty
members Of the Chamber are implicated
in similar corrupt way in the fortunes Of
DeLesseps' scheme, but he reserves their
names in order 10 concentrate the charge
on these ex.ministers and force them 20
proceed against him in the courts, where
hc is ready and anxious 10 meet them. I
take the liberty Of doubling however, that
they Will sue him unless they are forced
into IL.
Nj. Martin also attacks the present Of.
fort OF VI. Delesseps 10 obtain at least the
formal backing OF the Credit Foncier for
his project of new loan. Il appears that
the Government is pretty deeply involved
IN support OF this plan, NJ. Floquct rclying
h good deal on patriotic ilummery about
piercing the lsthmus OF Panama under the
French 1ag gioreleciionecring capital in the
general elections Of next year. Hence.
any big scandal now about the Panama
Canal will not only smash finally NJ. De-
Lesseps' chances for getting more money
out Of the confding French people, but
will seriously threaten the Government
itself.
Quite rs important rs anything else Is
tile opening Of subscriptions for che new
Russian loan here in France. II is not 80
much that the investment Is n very bad
aud unwsc one financially, but that Il
will create lot Of political sentiment Of a
dangerous sort. Every peasant who holds
100 francs In Russian paper will have n
new belief In the certainty OF Russian
friendship for France 70 the obvious In
crease Of willingness TO engage In inter
national ventures

In The House of Cnnmons.

LONDON, Nov. 23.-In the House OF
Commons this evening Mr.. Sexton asked
whether it was true that seven Irish mem
bers were able TO be prosecuted, and, ii so,
whether there was any relation between
the prosecution and the delay in the de-
bate on the Irish estimates. II there was
not, he asked il Mr.. Smith, the Govern
ment leader, would give assurance that
members would not be Withdrawn from
their Parliamentary duties until the osti-
mates were settled.
Mr.. Smith denied having any knowledge
of the prosecution. He certainly desired
members TO remain until the estimates
were considered. He then moved that the
rule compelling adjournment at midnight
be again suspended to enable the House to
conclude the debate on the Irish land pur-
chase bill. His motion was carried by a
vote OF 1876 70 1859. ~
On motion 10 20 into committee on the
bill, Mr.. Parnell proposed AN amendment
giving the Government power to instruct
the Land Commission 10 deal with arrears
when fixing judicial rents. He urged that
in view OF the iact that IL was agreed on
all sides that the arrears question must
necessarily be settled, IL ought to be dealt
with without delay In conjunction with
the question OF land purchase. This done,
il would place the tenant in a position to
contract freely with the landlord. protect
the exchequer against loss and give the
Ashbourne act the best possible chance 10
work with smoothness.
Mr.. Smith contended that the course
which Mr.. Parncll proposed would place
the tenant in a distinctly worse position
than before, by recognizing arrears as a
charge that might continue TO hang around
his neck even after completing his pur-
chase. Now, after contract for purchase
had been agreed upon the arrears became
ipso facto wiped out
Mr.. Dillon said that the mischief Of ar
rears occurred before the agreement for
purchase was signed.
MIR. Parnell's motion was rejected by q
vote OF 1872 TO i4S.
