Only a summary of DR.. Mackenzie's book
is yet accessible to the public in Berlin, but
enough is known of it's contents to arouse
savage indignation in official circles. Putting
aside the medical dispute, the charges which
DR.. Mackenzie levels at Prince Bismarck, ol
into u doubtful declaration as to the nature
OF the Emperors disease, are felt to be a
poisonous slander upon the reputation OF the
chancellor.
A dispatch to the London Chronicle from
Rome says: "The interview between the
pope and Emperor William was q cordial one.
The emperor assured the pope that he would
adhere toa conservative policy in politics
and social and religious affairs. The pope
replied that in security and grandeur Ger
many would gain much if the liberty of the
Catholic church and the independence of the
papacy in Germany were more effectu.
ally guaranteed. Hesaid also that it was
necessary in the interests of European civili-
zation that the Roman question should be
settled satisfactorily. The pope was pleased
with Emperor Williams remarks.

More than 10. 900 people were drowned and

A cable dispatch says: The Pacific mail
contract has been signed between the impe-
rial government and the Canadian Pacific
Railway Company. Tenders for three steam
ers will be received within week. The stipu-
lated service is to commence in 18 months,
the company receiving annually 945, 900
from the imperial government, in addition
to SIS. 900 from the Dominion government,
for monthly service for 10 years from Van
couver, not only to Yokohama and Hong
Kong. us first intended, but also calling at
Shanghai. Increasing anxiety is felt to learn
that the Dominion government realizes that
the whole efficiency of the Canadian route to
the East now depends on the Atlantic service.
If that equals that by New York, say 1S
knots, the Canadian route to Hong Kong
can easily compete with the Suez.

As To Smoking.

Albany Journal: An Albany physi-
cian, who is something of an investi-
gator, says that smoking is not
good to relieve mental depression;
that it does SO simply by diverting
a mans mind from objects that
worry him, Nothing" said he,
requires more devotion to it for its
enjoyment than cigar. 1t is not
the taste oftobacco that one enjoys.
1t is looking at the smoke, inhaiing
and smelling it, and knocking.off the
ashes. All these things divert the
mind and SO drive dull care away"

The Whitechapel Horrors.

London Cablegram: The mass of absurd
theories false clues and unlimited arrests of
the wrong men which have almost turned the
pursuit of the Whitechapel murderer into a
burlesque, were relieved at last by a genuine
sensation. Mr. George Lusk a builder, is the
head ofthe Whitechapel vigilance committee
Late on Tuesday night. the 10th inst, the
parcel post left n box at his house. Upon
opening it he discovered meaty substance
which smelt very strong and which he judged
to be the half of q kidney belonging to some
animal. Inclosed in the box was the follow
ing letter;
| send you half of the kidney l took from
one of the women. preserved it for you.
The other piece fried and ate. 1t was very
nice. / may send you the bloody knife that
took it out il you only wait while longer.
Mr.. Lusk at first regarded the whole thing
as a joke. But remembering that such an
organ had been taken from the Mitre square
victim, he took the box to the London hos
pital. DR.. Openshaw examined the inclosure
and said that 1t certainly came from a
fu.Lgrown woman and had been divided longi-
tudinally. subsequently the box and letter
were taken to Scot and yard and the detec-
tives are trying to find out in what postal
district the parcel was handed in for mail.
The handwriting OF the letter in the box
bears no resemblance to the handwriting OF
the letters Of Jack the Ripper" found some
weeks ago.

Yellow Fever Situation,

The Jacksonville board of health adopted a
resolution requesting the United States Off.
cials to aid by regulation and organization
in preventing the return of absent citizens
until frost occurs. The pith of long ad-
dress is in the following words:
Neither the houses or atmosphere of Jack
sonville are less dangerous to the unaccli-
mated than they were a month since, and we
would earnestly warn all who are liable to
contract yellow fever against venturing to
come here, merely because they may see that
there are no new cases reported. Wait until
the board of health notifies you that the
epidemic is not only over, but that
is reasonably safe for absentees and
strangers to come here again. and
then return. only under such restrictions
and directions as may be advised by the au-
thorities. We would add that there does not
appear to be any probable grounds upon
which to base an expectation that this time,
SO earnestly desired by us all, will come ear
lier than the very last of November or the be-
ginning of December.
There are twenty-sev new cases of yellow
fever for the past twenty-four hours. Assis-
tant Surgeon Martin reports from Gainesville.
Fla. that there have been sixteen cases and
six deaths from yellow fever In that city, but
that no cases have occurred since Oct. To-
nr. Fox at st, Augustine reports to the ma
rine hospital bureau that he has made a
thorough inspection of st. Augustine, and
that he found no indication of yellow fever.

it had looked like it when there was SO much

a political warfare between the two great

it unwise to make political speech, but he

trade-prOtection on the outside and free
trade among the various states. He hoped
