FREDERICk'S DIARY.

Bismarck Publishes a Denial of the Au-
 thenticity of the Alleged Extracts.
 BERLIN, Sept. 2S. - The Reichsanzeiger publishes report prepared by Prince Bis marck stating that some errors, both of fact and chronology, appear in the published ex- tracts of the late Emperor Frederick's diary, which lead him to believe that the abstracts are not authentic.
 The chancellor declares that he was not allowed ill 1870 to speak to Emperor Fred eriek, the then crown prince, of important political subjects, because Emperor William feared that indisereet revelations might be made to the British court
 It is officially stated that Prince Bismarck has obtained Emperor Williams consent to prosecute the publishers of The Deutsche Rundschau for revealing state secrets in publishing abstracts from the late Emperor Frederick's diary. The prosecution will be conducted irrespective of the question of the genuineness of the abstracts.
 The publishers of the review have ceased to sell the edition containing the portions of the diary.

How about free hidesg-REGIsTER.
Yes. how about them2 Here is the answer.
HoS. WM. MCKINLEY said at Atlanta, Tuesday:
alt is argued that II we could import raw mate
rial from other countries free, and manufacture
snch raw material into products for use, we could
export them Al great profit and thus secure q
standing In the markets Of the world. In
1872 hides and skins were made free so that our
manufacturers could import them without Gus
tom house burdens. They have had Free Trade
in their raw material now for sixteen years.
This industry has been an exceptionally sue
eessfnl one, and vet you cannot avoid being sur
prised when say TO you that in those sixteen
years we have been able to EXPORT tut per cent.
Of the leather production OF the country."-Int'L
li0Sneer.
Possibly true, but before the tariff was
taken of hides we did not export any
leather, on the contrary it mostly all came
here from abroad. Now, with free hides,
we do not import any leather but export a
great dedi-2 per cent. Of all our home
production, which is enormous, though
cunning Major MCKINLEY's way of put
ting il makes il appear small.
MCKISLEY's own words knock the high
tariff argument higher than kite. In
1872 men like MCKINLEY were bowling
that the American tanning industry would
he ruined if the tariff we're taken off hides
Yet Lere il MCKINLEY in 1888 saying
of this very industry that was to he
ruined:
"They have had "Free Trade" in their raw
material now for sixteen years This industry
has been an exceptionally successful one"
The IateliigeReer had better not quote
MCKINLEY again until it has carefully an
alyzed the quotation and made sure that it
won't 90 off backwards.

Saws the Los Angeles Herald: During the
month of March the total number of sales of
real estate was 1873; and the gross amount
was S7.67l.43S. This is two millions more
than for March year ago. When we realize
that the total sales for the three months Just
closed reach the enormous sum Of S22,000,-
600 in round numbers, and that this is nearly
fifty per cent more than was recorded for the
same period a year ago, it must appear that
there is really on the whole an acceleration
