GERMAN RAPs AT SWITZERLAND
The North German Gazette Still Max
ing Bold Charges.

BERLIN. June 26.-The North German,
Gazette, in another article on socialists in
Switzerland, charges that the spread of
social revolutionary doctrines is mainly
due to the facilities which the Swiss local
officials have offered the Social Densokrat
and other revolutionary prints to circulate.
Germanys efforts to convince Switzerland
of the pernicious character Of the Social
DenoErdt were without result, and it was
not until 1887, when Rother Teufel attacked
prominent Swiss personages, that Switzer-
land was induced to act.

DBLAGoA BAYS RAILROAD.
Portugal Cancels a Concession It Had
Granted.


Granted.
LONDON, June 26.-The Portuguese gov
erament to-day cancelled the concession IL
had granted for the building Of a railroad
at Delagoa Bay. The British consul at
Delagoa Bay has asked that a man-of-war
be sent there to protect the interests OF
British subjects. It is reported that Ger
many is backing Portugal in an endeavor
to counteract British influence in that
country.
Lord Salisbury, in the House of Lords
last evening. said that the government had
earnestly requested Portugal to refrain
from taking hasty action, and to give time in
which to settle this considerable difficulty.
de declared that it would not be within
PortugaIs right to refuse to arbitrate the
matter.
e PoRTUGAL's EXPLANATION.
LISBON, June 26.-The Portuguese govern
ment has issued decree setting forth that
the Delagoa Bay railroad concession was
cancelled because the parties to whom the
concession was granted had failed to keep
their engagements. The decree further
declares that the government will take up
the work of constructing a railroad and
will indemnify the concessionares for the
work they have already done. The Portu-
gese minister of foreign affairs will examine
into the diplomatic question pending be-
tween Portugal and England.
NOT BELIEVED BY THE DIRECTORS.
The secretary of the DeIagoa Bay railway
writes that the Lisbon agent of the com
pany has not been notified of the revocation
of the concession. The directors of the
company are unable to believe that Portu-
gal would take so unprecedented and un-
usual a measure without the slightest justi.
fication and against the vigorous protests
of Great Britain and America. The crown
counsel and other eminent lawyers are
unanimous in the opinion that such action
is illegal.

Helping the Colleges.

1t is gratifying to see that the lead
ing colleges of the country continue
to enjoy the favor of men of wealth.
The gifts to Princeton, Yale and other
institutions of learning during the
past year run up into the hundreds Of
thousands of dollars. Yale alone has
received over 5000, 600, and Princeton
reports even a larger sum, while one
western institution has added to its re-
sources gifts amounting to 500, 900.
Indeed, there is hardly college Of
any pretensions in the country which
has not been the object of benefactions
more or less notable. There has never
been time when the sympathy of the
rich men of the country-many of
whom have never personally enjoyed
the advantages of a liberal education
with the best and highest forms of
culture and scholarship was SO pro-
nounced and active as now, and the
fact is full of promise and hope for
the future, in which SO many grave
and important questions, involving
the best interests of the nation, if not
of all mankind, and requiring for
their right adjustment the ripest wis
dom, will compel the attention of the

Zone of the funniest incidents that

near Berryville, there came crushing
like a whirlwind into our lines Yam
kee soldier ON big black horse. A
score of men tried to stop horse and
rider, but the old blacks blood was
up, and he went on clean through our
lines before he was under control. The
rider was sent to Libby prison, Hnd we

we charged some of Clusters men, and
