the members of the national executive COM
mittee were present, and while no formal
meeting was held, they were ia close con-
ference with Chairman Brice for several
hours, after which everybody seemed in
particularly good humor Ole reason
for this manifest jubilation was
of especial interest to the south
and was predicated on this The republi-
can campaigners have been over exerting
themselves lately in working the free
trade" bugaboo upon hew basis. They
have been enthusiastically quoting southern
facts" in secret circulars addressed to
workingmen to prove that tariff reforml
means destruction to property. These cir |

from the support of Cleveland and Thur-j
man.
NAMES QUOTED.
Some Of these documents even quotes thel
names OF prominent southern men who arel
alleged to be converts to the Blaine Harrison

vatican without practically affecting the

FAILURE OF THE HARVEST.
The failure Of tho harvest in Germany is
attracting serious attention. There Is a
poor crop of both cereals and potatoes.
The price OF bread is rapidly rising. Since
1887, rye has advanced 4S marks and wheat
"a marks. In some districts bakers have
raised the price of bread 10 pfennig per
pound.
Herr Richter, in an article in the Liberal
Zehung calculates that Germany will re-
quire $4,000, 900 hectoltres of grain to meet
the deficiency. The people, he says, must
therefore demand an immediate dimiuution
OF the duty on cereal imports. The pro-
gresslsts intend to actively agitate the ques-
ton.
The Norde Deutsche Zeifung admits that
If the dearth of grain produces popular
discomfort. the government cannot res sst
measures to alleviate the distress.
RUssIA's PASSPORT RULES.
The new Russian passport rules enact
that travellers must have their passports
vised in every locality in which they pass a
SINGLE night. Exceptional measures are
taken against Jews, whether they are Rus
slams or aliens. The police can refuse to
wise passport without assigning any rea-
son for their refusal. The result is that
Jews may be refused entrance into Russia
or permission to travel therein.
The Hamburg Fremdenbiatt says that an
examining magistrate then visited the resi-
dence of Herr Geificken, who gave the
Deutsehe Renndeschdn extracts from EN-
peror Frederick's diary, and found that he
had departed for Heligoland last Sunday.
