Foreign Notes.

BERLIN, Jan. 23.-Siuce the official
organ of the German armys, the Miiitar
W~Ochen6tdtt, gave its luminous compari-
son of the strength of the frontier forces
Of Germany and Russia, the discussion Of
the situation has elected nothing more
definite than u semi official statement in
several papers to-day that despite the ar
rival Of additional Russian troops on the
frontier, the German government for the
present will not order a counter movement
necessary to cqualize the strength OF the
two forces This is one of the several in
dications that the government believes
war has been delayed.
The Moscow Gazette of yesterday indi-
Gated a pacific policy Of Russia. 1t de-
clared that peace was assured unless Rus
sia should &c provoked by the aggressive
acts Of her %ncighbors.
The SUet disputes the WochcRJidH'S
figures, and tries to prove that Germany
can concentrate a million men on the
frontier Of Poland within ten days, while
Russia's huge area Of territory and impcr-
feet means Of transportation render diff,
cult the work Of mobilization.
The ~postponement of rupture is not in
accordance with the strategy of the Ber-
lin war Office, nor with the wishes of the
Viennese, but continues due to the ire
solution of the Austrian government.
Although convinced that war is inevitable
and that it would be preferable for Aus
tria Dor of later, Count Kalnoky per-
sists in waiting Russia's time. Tho truth
of the position, however, is that Prince
Bismarck has already fully possessed
Count Kalnoky of the fact that the Ger
man initiative to war is impossible, loav-
ing the Austrian government free to
open hostilities when it deems the time
ripe.
The crown prince is writing much every
day and it is surmised from the immense
quantity of documents and works that he
has consulted bearing upon the campaigns
of K%oneggratz and Sedan hat he is
writing q history of the Austrian and
Eranco-G erman wars.

WAYS OF A WAITER.
A Fortune of 100000 Accumulated by
Exacting Fees.

From the Washington Post.
The United States hotel at Saratoga has
lost qy death the head waiter, John Lucas,
who had served in that capacity fourteen
years, or ever since the hotel opened in 1874,
writes the Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Courier-JournaL. A new York
paper, when mentioning his death, says he
left SOC, 900. Lucas was a negro from Alex
andria, Va, and his remains were taken
from New York to his native city for inter
ment. Lucas was So years old and belonged
to that class of head walters who exacted
fees or melted out punishment His $50, 900
in fourteen years represented the profits of
his position. The influence of money
always found ready response in Lucas
Early in the season a family would arrive
at the States" and as the dining-room is
comparatively empty the first month, eligi-
BILE seats would be secured A month later
a man and his wife would arrive, stop at
the main door of the dining-room, place S25
in Lucas palm, point out the table occupied
by the family who had been there a month,
and say, II want that table. :"
Lucas would walk to the gentleman
and say, These seats have been
engaged since Mr.. and Mrs. Moneybags left
here last year; they have arrived and will
show you to another table," After being
seated Moneybags would send s25 to the
head cook. and he would send better pre-
pared dainties than others who paid 81 a
day, just as he was paying for himself and
wife. OF course one of the best walters In
the room would be detailed to wait on
Moneybags and his wife, and he, too, must
be literally feed each day or week.
A lady told me last summer that she put
90 in Lucas hand after he had seated her,
and said: ~ want better place in the
dining-room than this one near the pan
tries" He, in an angry tone, flung the 50
back and said: IF you think that 50 will
buy my good will you are mistaken" Many
persons told me that they had complained
to the proprietor about Lucas airs, but they
could get no redress. Mr.. Tompkins would
say: Lucas has charge of the dining-room,
and don't interfere with him."
The fee system is becoming so importu-
nato that people of moderate meas can't
stand it. Bell boys expect to be literally
paid each time a pitcher Of ice water is
brought to the room. If it is not paid,
there are ways found to inflict punishment,
for you must be careful not to incur the
displeasure of your chambermaid, or any
one whose services you think you are pay
ing for. when you engage board at the
highest rates.
