The Morier Incident Not Closed.

VIENNA REPORTS SAY IT IS MANIPULATION OF
BIsMARCE's HATRED OF ENGLAND.
Berlin dispatches say the partial withdrawal
OF the charges against Sir r. D. Morier by the
Post, in accordance with the promise of Count
Herbert Bismarck. is far from ending the in
cident The result of Lord Salisbury's remon-
strances will probebly appear shortly. The
government organs evince an uneasy desire to
disentangle themselves from the affair The
Reichsdnzeiger publishes letter tending to
prove the truth of Morier's assertions that he
sent no news about the Germans crossing the
Moselle because he had none to send
While the liberal newspapers are rejoicing
over what they call a Bismarckian blunder,
they do not fail to censure Morier for his want
OF decorum IN sending heated letter directly
to Count Herbert Bismarck. instead of commu-
nicating in the usual manner through Sir Ed
ward Malet, the British ambassador. Sir Rob-
ert doubtless desired, If possible, to avoid en-
tangling the English government in the affair."
but therein he made great mistake. retarding
the PREPARATION that might otherwise have been
readily given. The charge of forgery has col
lapsed utterly.
As a further result of Lord Salisbury's re-
monstrance, the National Zeitung declares that
the apparently inspired attack upon Morier has
little import when viewed in connection with
the maintenance of good relations with Eng
land, and it expresses the hope that the Incl
dent will be treated like the Mackenzie affair
and allowed to drop. adding: without further
material one must be satisfied with verdict of
non hquet." The article concludes with COM
plimentary references to England and Lord
Salisbury.
From Vienna far different news regarding the
animus OF the MOrier incident is sent out A
semi-offcial correspondents of the Montdqs Rer,e.
said to be German official occupying proni-
nentpositioI in Berlin, states that the reason for
the attack on Sir r. ID. Morier is the atters sup
posed hostility to the AustrO-( German alliance
The TdgbLdn saws that the Bismarcks are at
lacking England, not Morier, and that they are
ready to go to the length of seeking an alliance
with Russia, if that is necessary, to ruin Eng
lands worldwide position. A majority of the
Vienna papers condemn the attack on
Morier. The Poster Lloyd says that from a
moral point of view Morier has perfectly vindi-
Gated his character.

One Boston Woman.

From the Saturday Evening Gazette.
There is crying need for reform in the
manners of passengers in our horse-cars.
Men long ago became callous, and only too
often allow the weaker sex to stand while they
remain seated. This is no worse than the sell
fishness that prevents women from moving up
to make room for another seat Either for
fear of crushing their gowns or for love of
ease they almost always demand more space
than men. Many women seem to leave their
breeding outside the street-cars Only the other
day a robust, well-dressed woman stepped ON
the platform of a Beacon-street car 1t was
absolutely crowded full. Standing lust inside
the door was poor, delicate girl. unable to
move an inch further. The woman said.
Come out and let me get in. shall catch
cold out here
With shove of her shoulder she pushed the
girl upon the cold platform, and ensconed her
self in the more comfortable position The
girl said nothing. In fact, what could she saw?
She accepted the situation. The lady CD being
shielded from the bitter cold, gave never a
thought to the girl she had SO calmly dis
lodged. 1t is sincerely to be hoped that the
new year will bring a radical reform in the
manners of both the men and women who daily
ride in our public conveyances. As for the
drivers and conductors, they are but mortal.
and while such constant examples of selfish,
ness are set them TREY can hardly be expected
to be overburdened with civility themselves.

Some Historical Canes.

FROM the Cincinnati Enquirer.
That canes have been put to nobler uses than
that of affo-ding nourishment to the abysmal
mouths of dudes is proved by history. In fact.
the cane is surrounded by historical memories
of surprising interest. The Mexicans first used
canes i'll America. When the Spanish con-
quered the country queer custom was intro
duced. The chief executive of the town carried
a stick with a gold or silver head. 1t was n
kind of scepter. The people, of course. rarely
knew how to read or write, and when any one
was wanted for crime one of the MAYORS sub
ordinates would take the cane. find the culprit.
and place it horizontally upon the latter's
chest. The proceeding was equivalent to a
simmons, apd the man had to appear before
the mayor under the penalty of being cast into
prison. The custom was borrowed from SPAIN
where 1T still prevails in the more important
sections
The cane of early American history, like that
of Biblical times, was part of the repertory of
the leaders of the church. 1t was the principal
badge of the deacon. The cane was about five
feet long. One end was embellished with big
knob, the other with feathers. When the small
boy rebelled against the straight-back pew he
got rap on the head with the uncharitable end
of the cane. If the head of the family got to
dreaming about his old English home and the
coy little nest in one of the shires the turkeys
plumage on the deacon's cane feathered til g
sleeper into life again.
The Irish have always been associated with a
blackthorn stick of short and thick dimensions.
They used these queer little sidearms in the
invasions of the English kings and in the re-
igious wars. Even in its unpublished state the
blackthOrn stick is one of the most cherished
by cane connoisseurs.

The SenOrita's Grief.

Washington Correspondence New York Tribune.
There is no city in the United States where
mistakes arising from ignorance of the customs
of other countries are more likely TO occur
than in Washington. Some evenings ago there
was social gathering at one of the most
hospitable houses in the city. Not the least
important incident on this occasion was the
singing of the daughter of a certain South
American minister. The young lady, tall,
beautiful, with large, lustrous dark eyes, at
once engaged the sympathy of her audience.
She had but lately arrived in Washington and
her English was 80 imperfect that she sang the
words of her song only in her own language.
LA Paloma' was her selection, and its plain
tive strains rendered by her rich contralto
voice held her auditors almost spellbound
At It's conclusion the enthusiasm she had
created broke out in applause. There were
several old gentlemen. one a member of Con-
gress, who showed their appreciation not only
by look of kindly approval on their faces but
by patting the floor with their feet; and SO
loudly did they express themselves in this way
that they were heard above all the other mani
festations of enthusiasm in the room The
senorita, who at first received the appreciative
applause smilingly, looked down to the floor as
her eyes filed with tears and the muscles of
her mouth played tremulously. She was evil
IDENTITY laboring under a heavy emotion not re-
sulting from the praise the applause gave her.
moment more and she drew forth and raised
to her eyes a delicate lace handkerchief then
rising slowly she crossed the room to where
her father sat- He arose wonderingly to meet
her.
PADRE" she said, ellos me burlan Lie
veme casa. Gather, they hiss me. Take me
home.)
mo, no. Es una equivocacion solo. Ellos
nos bacon honor" (No, no. 1t is a mistake
They do us honor by the applause.)
'Pero patean." but they stamp their feet }
"Ah," said the experienced diplomat, laugh
ing, and continuing in Spanish: 'You are not
in our southern country. Here the stamping
of feet is not to hiss, but to applaud"
The Senorita was by this time surrounded by
her host and other ladies. inquiring and con-
cerned for the cause of her grief, and when the
minister explained to them the custom of his
country and the misinterpretation of the
stamping of feet, they consoled their young
guest, who smiled through her tears and finally
responded to demand for an encore.

A New Submarine Vessel,

Madrid Dispatch to the London Standard.
1t is reported that a Spanish submarine YES
sci at San Fernando arsenal has been damaged
by one of the tubes serving as reservoirs for
compressed air bursting. The inventor of this
vessel is Lieut.. Peral, who was very well re-
ceived by the minister of marine and the lead
ing naval and civil engineers of Madrid: to
whom he only partly revealed the plans and
secret of his system. Lieut.. Peral undertakes
to make. in January, at San Fernando, the first
trials of his vessel before he attempts to navi-
gate 1t under water for forty-eight hours in the
rough seas near the Straits of Gibraltar. He
asserts that he can keep the boat in hori-
zontal position and steer and use it as a torpedo
vessel under water with a crew of eight men,
The government has promised its moral and
pecuniary support to the invention, which is
exciting great interest in Spain, especially
among naval officers.

To Punish the Hate Cutters.
An IMPORTANT MEETING OF RAILROAD MEN !
BANKERS IN NEW YORK

An IMPORTANT MEETING OF RAILROAD MEN AND
BANKERS IN NEW YORK.
The fact that yesterdays meeting of rail-
road presidents and bankers was held at
the house of one of the leading bankers in
New York city gave the key note to the
object of the conference, which was de-
voted almost exclusively to ferreting out the
authorship of the recent order for cutting
rates on the Missouri Pacific, in violation of
the compact entered into in New York city on
December u. The meeting began at
the residence of Mr.. j. Pierrepont
Morgan. on 5th avenue, at IL O'Clock.
One of the first to arrive was President Cable,
OF the Rock Island road who claims to be pos
sessed of documentary evidence that is ex-
pected to create demand for the retirement
OF m. F." officers. That the bankers are very
much In earnest In the investigation was made
known by MIR. Magoun, of Kidder. Peabody 4
Co., following close on the heels Of President
Cable. MIR. Morgan of course represented the
firms OF which he is the head. Brown and
Shlpley were also represented. AT o'clock an
adjournment was taken until Wednesday when
the matter will be further entered upon. Pres
ldent Cable stated to a reporter that there was
nothing done at yesterdays session beyond
general discussion Of the subject in hand, but

They Will Charge So a PRAYER.
EVEN THE MEN WHO PRAY FOR HoosIER LAW


LA
MAKERS MUST LIVE.
Says dispatch from indianapolis, Jan. Z:
There is great danger that the legislature
which meets in this city ON Thursday next will
be prayerless body, unless it can import men
from outside towns to do the praying for it.
1t has been customary to request the clergy
men of indianapolis to officiate in turns as
chaplains at the opening of the daily sessions.
These requests have been considered as honors
by the clergymen, and have been cheerfully
responded to. At their meeting this morn
ing. however, the matter was discussed by the
ministers, and it was tacitly agreed that unless
the legislature would pay So prayer the
clergymen would refuse to oficiate as usual
There were several little speeches on the
subject and it seemed to be agreed that if a
prayer was not worth IS it wasn't worth any,
thing. DIR. Mcleod said he had officiated sew
eral times as chaplain of the last legislature,
and he would say that he had never seen a
body of men who seemed to need praying for
more. One time he was there they were try
ing to throw the presiding officer out of the
chair while he prayed, and he thought prayers
under such circumstances we're dirt cheap at
So. There is general understanding among
the ministers, it is said that there shall be no
rate cutting. They think the legislature ought
to settle the matter by appointing a regular
chaplain.

The Power of New York Soldiers at For
aging and Repartee.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Major William Warner, of Kansas City, the
new commander-in-chief of the Grand Army
of the Republic, is a well-built man of medium
height, who looks shorter than he is because of
his broad, powerful physique. He is straight
as an arrow, and suggests great physical
strength. His head is unusually large and he
wears a wave of black hair over his ears and
forehead His eyebrows are shaggy, giving
kis keen eyes an expression which would be
almost fierce were it not for the humor which
turks in every glance. A heavy bristling nous
tache does not conceal the determination of
his mouth. few stray gray hairs add dig
nifty OF maturity to f" face otherwise youthful.
In his address befo: Lafayette post and vet
eran officers from this section, on the occasion
of his New York reception, he showed that he
was an orator as well a soldier He also ex-
hibited a pathetic or sentimental side which
had been effectually concealed by his warlike
bearing. He will hold his own as a raconteur
also. Incidentally, he discussed foraging in
war, hum0rously contending that it had been
reduced to fine art by our northern soldiers
You New Workers" said he, with twinkle
in his eye, were adopts at foraging. You
could stand before fire or charge a belching
battery with any in the country, but it took the
foraging expedition to draw out your latent
genius, show up your surprising diligence and
thoroughness, and give your philosophy a
show. But even here you were sometimes
ecllpsed by the big west. well remember how
a detachment from one of your regiments
tackled Virginia farm one day. 1t wasn't
large farm, but the New Workers. exercised
their faculty for making everything of con-
siderable account. Not only were the live stock
and farm produce neatly and expeditiously cor
raiied but the farmers house was ransacked
with gentlemanly but thorough hands. and the
sugar emptied from the bowls and the strings
OF dried apples brought down from the garnet.
Sir, said the gray-bearded farmer to the
commander of the expedition when he was
getting ready to leave, you have left me moth
ing but my hope of salvation, and that you
