An Opinion of Bismarck.

"Yah, yah. [ am simbul purvoeg-

The reichstag is not an imposing
building, though substantial and strong.
The chamber where all the debates Oc-
cur resembles that of the Senate at
Washington, but it is only half the size.
A gallery runs round three sides of the
room, giving abundant room for mem
bers of the press, ministers, embassa-
doris and sightseers.
After we had walked down the main
aisle of the deserted chamber my guide
pointed to the first chair on the right of
the speakers desk and said solemnly:

"Do you know the chancellor ?"

twenty years experience, he announced
as his final Judgment:

Heavy Flour Output.

The Minneapolis Northwestern Miller
says: The mills again outdid them=
selves last week, making the highest
amount of flour ever produced in a
single week. The total output WAS ISL, J.
500 barrels. Two mills with combined
capacity of /, 200 barrels were idle when
the run was made. Somewhat lighter
work will doubtless be shown this
week, as two mills representing daily
product of 1,5O0 barrels were shut
down Saturday, and though one of them
may be started tomorrow or next day,
the temporary loss of their output will
be apparent. The mills continue to run
strong; but there is some talk about hav-
ing to slack up if there is not an early
improvement In the -four trade Millers
claim that wheat is now so high as to al
most prohibit milling, and that either
flour must go up or wheat down, else
they will have to stop grinding. The
market is extremely dull, and very little
flour is being sold.

DUBLIN. May AT private confer

LONDON, May 2.-It is stated that the
papal decree and Cardinal Monaco s
circular to the bishops are considered
preliminary steps to further action in
Irish affairs. A special congregation of
the propaganda, composed exclusively
of cardinals, is now examining sew
eral questions relative to the Irish
agitation, upon which it will for
mally vote. Cardinal Simeoni has
submitted at least ten points to the con-
gregation. The Vatican appears re-
solved that those opposing it's decisions
will place themselves outside the pale
of moral and Christian law. The Vati-
can does not doubt that the Irish bish-
ops will feel the necessity of adopting

WRECK ON THE BURLINGTON.
A Freight Train Thrown From the Track
Strikers Blamed.


A Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
freight train WAS badly wrecked at 8
late hour on the night of the Sd, when
entering the Louisville, New Albany 4
Chicago Yards. at Chicago, and under
circumstances which lead to the belief
that it was the work of strikers or SYM
pathizers. After the engine and two
ears had passed, some unknown miscre-
ant threw switch and the next fifteen
cars were Immediately derailed and
piled up in hopeless wreck in
the ditch. Just as the switch was
thrown a man near the rear of the train
threw tie on the track, wrecking the
last three cars. At the same time car
of dope" material of highly in
fammable nature used tor oiling wheels,
which was in the center Of the train,
was set on fire. 1t blazed up fercely
and speedily the flames spread to the
adjoining cars. The Lake fire engines
responded to an alarm and the flames
were extinguished without the destruc-
ton of any but the original car. The
wrecked train was strung along the
tracks for nearly half mile, three Of
the four tracks being completely block
AIDED.
Just after the wreck occurred police
man found the conductor Of the train,
James A. Edwards, lying near the tracks
at Forty-ffth Street, badly bruised and
nearly insensible. When revived he
said three men had boarded his cabosse
at the Thirty seventh Street crossing
and attacked him. He was beat
en- over the head with some in
strument and his papers and val
tables taken, and then he remem-
bered nothing more until he was
found by the police. The physicians
think he cannot live, he having sustain
beating about the, head. The police have
arrested Chicago & Atlantic engineer,
Daniel Harmon, who was found lurking
in the vicinity, and he was booked for
carrying concealed weapons. The crew
of the wrecked train was made up en-
tirely of new men VINO have been work
ing since the strike began.

Ninety-five Thousand Dollars


Ninety-five Thousand Dollars
New YORK, May 1.-The officers of the
National Park Bank are very reticent in
regard to the defalcation of Assistant
Cashier Charles /. De Baum, who has
disappeared. A meeting Of the direct
ors was held to-day. Before it went into
session, Cashier Wright promised TO
make a statement, but when it adjourned
he declined to do SO. All he would
say was that the amount of the
defalcation is $95, 900, that De Baum en-
tered the bank in minor position
twenty-five years ago and gradually
worked up to the position of assistant
cashier. He would probably have been
cashier in a short time, added Mr..
Wright, had he gone straight. De Baum
resigned his position on April 10,
assigning i'll health as the cause. His
resignation was voluntary. He was un-
der personal bonds which are said to be
satisfactory to the bank. By resolution
the defalcation was charged to the profit
and loss account. The defalcation will
not embarrass the bank. De Baum
had charge Of the out of town
correspondence with other banks. In
this way he received checks which he
appropriated, it is said, covering his
steals by false entries.

The Local Option Law in Michigan

Advices from a large number OF
counties in Michigan which went dry
at the recent election, indicate an unex-
pected diversity of purpose among the
liquor dealers as to what course
they will pursue in the matter Of obey
ing the law. Some few of them openly
declare that they will sell liquor just as
long as they want to. Most OF them ap-
pear to have renewed the government
tax until May Z, the date on which the
local option law goes into effect, while
others will throw up the sponge and
quit the business. The action OF the SUI
preme court in the test cases is anxious
" awaited by the dealers, who think
they see a possible loop-hole whereby
they may continue the business, should
the decisions be in their favor.
