The Reason Why English Capitalists
vest in America

The Reason Why English Capitalists In
vest in America.
WASHINGTON, July 29th-An English
solicitor, who is connected with some of
the moneyed syndicates which are creating
so much talk in the newspapers at the
present time, explained the reason why so
much foreign capital is seeking investment
in the United States just at present
In the first place" he said, this syn
dictate is not operating with English capital
altogether. Money from all sections of the
continent pours into London for the pur-
pose of being invested in American enter
prises"
What is the reason for it?"
Well, the truth is there is widespread
impression throughout the money centers
of Europe that the whole continent is
drifting in the direction of war. This idea
is growing rapidly, and is causing the
withdrawal OF money from enterprises
throughout Europe. 1t explains the reason
for the great industrial depression which
has prevailed for some time, and which
seems to be on the increase rather than
upon the wane Capitalists are looking for
something which will be safer than Eu-
ropean stocks when this time shall come,
and they are sending their money to this
side of the Atlantic in order to be prepared
when the crash comes. This explains the
talk often heard now of English syndicates
investing in all sorts of American enter
prises."
1t was learned from another source that
the solicitor himself had made preparations
for heavy investments for his clients.
Washington real estate was to have been
bought up in large blocks, so the story
goes, but the discovery that the Alien Land
Act prohibits the ownership of land IN the
District of Columbia by foreigners has set
led the project, for the present at least.

A CONsTABLEs DEED.

The Supreme Court Affirms the Judg-
ment in Nevada Case.
The following Supreme Court decision
was filed in Clerk J. S. Williams office
here yesterday
A. G. Peterson, appellant, vs. Joseph
Weissbein ct al. "a Nevada county easel
On former appeal the cause was reversed,
on the ground tina, the defendants, who re-
lied upon a Coustable's deed to establish
their title had not made out their case, for
the reason that they had failed to introduce
in evidence the judgment and execution on
which the deed was based. On second
trial this evidence was supplied and judy
ment was again rendered for the defend
ants. from which plaintiff appeals.
The judgment-roll in the case between
the plaintiff and defendants grantor was
objected to on the ground that the parties
in that action were not the same as
in this. But the defendants having
purchased from the party in the former
action, the judgment Injured to their bene-
fit and was competent evidence. Judg-
ment and order affirmed.

COMMANDER NIULLAN.
He Says There is misunderstanding
Between Himself and Kimberly.

He says There is no misunderstanding
Between Himself and Kimberly.
WASHINGTON, July 29th.-The Baltimore
Sun of to-day has the following special
from Annapolis, Md: Commander Dennis
w. Mullan, of the navy, reached his home
in this city yesterday. He said, in speak
ing of affairs at Samoa, that he had done
simply mis- duty as an officer of the navy,
and if his acts met the approval of the
proper naval authorities and of the people,
whose servants he was, he was satisfied,
and that approval was all the reward he
now asks.
When questioned regal ding the great
Sam an cyclone, in which his vessel was
the only American ship saved be replied
that 1.-The Secretary of the Navy had offici-
ally approved of all there and then done,
and that ends the matter with me-"
AS to his misunderstanding with Ad-
miral Kimberly he said: II have not any
misunderstanding with that officer, and as
his Junior cannot be intervie ed concern
ing any of his official acts" 1t will be re-
membered that Commander Mullan, with
one war ship, resisted the right of search
of American vessels in Samoan waters by
the Germans, and it was his wise diplomatic
action that maintained this well-defined
American principle, and, at the same time,
prevented a conflict that might only have
ended in disastrous war between the United
States and Germany.
He expects to remain at home in An
napolis until fail, when be will be Joined
by his family, now in San Francisco,

WASHINGTON, July 29th.--Browers' South

with poor success. The Southern Republic

deny any sympathy with his move, and
generally sustain the Administration. Nc
Comas, Stockbridge, Ewart, Cheatham and

Both of Bowers colleagues from North

and one of them, Cheatham, who, by the
way, is the only colored Republican in the
next House, says of the Administration !:
Respecting my feeling toward the Admin

The President and each member of the

CHANGE OF OPINION.
Chinese Enlisting in Navy are Not Sea-
men-They are Only Laborers

Chinese Enlisting in Navy are Not Sea-
men-They are Only Laborers.
WASHINGTON, July 29th.-A hitch has
occurred in the question of the Chinese
enlisted as servants in the navy As stated
exclusively in these dispatches Saturday.
Solicitor of the Treasury Hepburn had
rendered an opinion that they could be
allowed to enter the United States as they
were seamen, and not laborers, in the
meaning of the law.
Acting Secretary Batcheller also believed
they were entitled to enter because they
we're then under the flag, and as the
United States domain extends wherey er
the flag floats, they were constructively in
the United States.
Since then be has considered the matter
carefully and the opinion of the Solicitor.
He has also had consultation with Assist
ant Secretary Tichenor, and they both have
arrived at the conclusion that those Chi
nese are enlisted as laborers and not as sea-
men, and, therefore, cannot be allowed to
land or be discharged in the United States.
1t is expected that q decision based on
the latter clause, will be promulgated soon.

The negresS Lucy Parsons made another
fiery address before the Anarchists of Chi
cago on Sunday. 1t was the old story OF
appeals to the people to rise and carry the
heads Of all capitalists on pike-stayes. The
law must be stabbed, the police downed,
the Courts overthrown, the prisons torn
down, the condemned set free, and every
body do precisely as he or she chooses, and
be held answerable to no one for anything
or action. What a splendid system is this
of ours, that it can afford to permit such
rawlings as these, and still possess itself in
peace and without entertaining fear.
Truly, free speech is the greatest of our
safeguards. Once prohibit this woman
Parsons and her kind from freely preach
ing what their shallow minds suggest, and
they would be elevated to the ranks of the
martyrs, and would in their bonds become
powerful agencies for ill. Left alone and
allowed to rail and speak as they may, they
are comparatively harmless.

set about to resist the enforcement of the
law is shameful that they should call to
their aid the ruff-scruff of the community,
the hoodlum class, the criminals and the
lawless, is simply outrageous 1t is not
question of the righteousness or the wis
dom of the law closing drinking saloons
on Sunday, but one of obedience to consti-
tuted authority; question of the domi-
nance of the law or of the liquor-dealers
of the chief city of Ohio. If these men
are to say what laws are to be enforced,
and what shall be set aside, then they
usurp the power of the local legislature,
and new and dangerous doctrine is intro
duced into our system that will render
life and property unsafe, and put legisla-
ton at the mercy of interests against which
it may be aimed. The people in their
representative capacity assemble and en-
act regulative laws that they decide to be
essential to the public peace and prosper
ity; but we are told by the action of those
against whom the regulation is aimed that
the business they follow is not subject to
the law, and that while all other business
houses must submit to the statutes, this
particular business shall be exempt from
the penalties of violated laws. If the at
tempt to enforce the law fails in Cincin-
cinnati it will be bad for all interests. The
lawless class will be encouraged to resist
the laws in other directions, and we shall
have set up a rule under which private
right and public good will be subject to the
arbitrament of their enemies. The cry of
the Anarchists in the streets of Chicago
was, "Stab the law" the shout of the
hoodlum mob in Cincinnati was, Mob
the police" Both cries spring from the
the same contempt for lawful authority.
The mobs that in each case uttered the
Infamous words will, when the time comes,
be precisely as quick to shout for the de-
struction Of property rights, public order
and the setting up of the rule of anarchy.
The Anarchists of Chicago are not one
whit more blameworthy, their cry is not
particle more dangerous than the shout
of the Cincinnati mob.

MURDERED FOR A NICKEL.
The Proprietor of Beer Saloon Beats a
Customer to Death.


WASHINGTON, July Goth. = A murder
came to light to-day through the death
of the victim. A week ago Walter
Duvall, a young colored man, entered a
saloon at the corner OF Seventh and L
streets, northwest, and got glass of beer.
Being little slow in handing over the
nickel, the barkeeper, Patrick Burke, beat
him severely over the head with black
jack, fFac uEing the skull in several places.
Duvall went home, and later on had his
wounds dressed at drugstore.
Since then he has been about, though
complaining of severe pains in the head.
This morning he became worse, and a
physician was summoned aud the police
notified. The victim died in few minutes.
The murderer was arrested while max.
ing preparations 10 leave the city. The in
quest developed the murder to have been
unproyoked.
