HANDS OFF, BISMARCKr!'
Switzerland is Ready to Defend Herself
fa9Case OF Invasion.
Germany's Motive fdt. 'Revenge-secret History
OF the Part Taken by the Republic in
the Franco-Gernsan War.
New York Herald.

Inc Importance attached by. the Ger
man government to the apparently fri
fling Wohlgenuth incident, and the evil
dent desire of Prince Bismarck to pick a
quarrel with Switzerland on that ac-
count, have caused considerable surprise
to many persons, who cannot understand
why great power like Germany should
use such menacing tone toward little
republic which has willfully given no
cause for offense and has simply exer-
cised its right of affording protect ion to
the political exiles of all nations. This
right Germany might very naturally
question and seek to limit
SO far as her own subjects are
concerned. That this great mower
however, should buster and threaten
simply because one of her officials has
got into a serape in Switzerland is what
no one who does not look beneath the
surface can clearly underst and.
GERMANY IS MOTIVE EXPLAINED.
>, TO the Swiss in this city the motive for
Bismarck s conduct is plain. chose
among them who have taken little inter
est in politics at home say that the cham.
cellor is anxious to bring about another
war with France, and intends to rouse
the wrath of his old enemy by threaten
ing Switzerland. This explanation is ALL
sufficient for them and they refuse to
listen to any other
Those Swiss, however, who have taken
an active part in politics at home, and
especially the Swiss socialists, many of
whom are now in this city, maintain that
the chancellor s wrath is reused against
Switzerland and not against France, and
that sooner or later an attempt will be
made to pour German troops into the free
republic. For years they have been ex-
pectlng such action on the part of Ger
many, and are now confident that the
Wohlgemuth incident will prove to be
the prelude to the lOng-expected attack.
Excellent reasons they give for this
belief which is based on incidents hither-
to unrecorded and entirely unknown to
the general public.
According to them Switzerland was
prevented by a mere chance from giving
substantial aid to France during her
memorable contest with Germany, and it
is the knowledge of this fact which has
angered Prince Bismarck and will impel
HIM to attack Switzerland at the first
opportunity. The chancelIor's silence
on the subject during the many years
that have elapsed since the Franco-Ger-
man war is explained on the ground that
Switzerland IS proposed assistance to
France was in the nature of q plot, and
that probably no hint of any such action
was given to the chancellor until quite
recently, when there is reason to believe
that all the details of the affair were
made known to him by means Of spies.

on all its divisions and one has brought
action 10 recover wages withheld to make
PREPARATION for amounts alleged TO have
been stolen from the company. It is the
first time that action of this nature has
been brought into court The conductors
state their case IN a secret circular in
which they say:
Upon the result Of this case rests the
rise or fall of the conductor of the future,
hence the necessity of verdict in
our favor or virtually yours. To per-
nit corporations TO retain your salary for
months and upon demand refuse payment
upon the fiippaHt excuse that the in
former believes You have not performed
your duty is unbearable, and when we
consider we have spent the best part OF
our lives for the best interests of the
company and its patrons, we would be
towards TO our manhood if we allow our
selves and our families to be robbed OF
our good name and standing before the
public and before our associates should
we allow these charges to pass without
our notice.

ductors brotherhood of the United States
has taken charge of the conductors side
of the issue. If the company fails to es-
tablish the guilt Of conductors, suits for
defamation of character will be instituted
at once and the conductors ASSOCIATION
will endeavor TO make test case OF the
affair and put an end to the blue envel-
ope' and similar systems of discharge,
which have a tendency 10 disgrace the
person whose services are dispensed with.
The railroad company's answer is plain
and defiant. Dates and amounts are fur
nished and the charges are made in
straightforward manner.
