Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
BERLIN, March S0.-A rupture in the
Government groups, arising from their
disagreement on the press penal law is
certain, unless the bill is materially
modified. The National Liberals declare
against the bill. Conservatives and Free
Conservatives are ready to sub
NIT to any repression, though
there are symptoms of reaction even
among them. The semi official press,
the Cologne Gazette, Magdebourg Gazette,
and others who venture to criticise, ad-
NIT that under the law there can be no
freedom of discussion and says that the
Liberals are justified in coalescing to
resist the bill. These comments have
given rise to reports that commission
of the bundesrath has greatly modified
the bill. 1t is not unlikely that the
proposals are being inspired by the
Emperor with whom the absolute regula-
ton of the press is pet project. His
departure from the usual etiquette
of the court to attend a parlia-
mentary dinner at Bismarck's was
due to desire to conciliate the deputies.
Even If the leaders are seduced, the bulk
of the Nationalists would not consent to
the bill. It is probable that the Gov
ernment will rely on the centre party,
thus causing an evolution in the party
grouping. The VoSsissche Zeitung pre-
diets Clerico- Conservative coalition,
the majority of the Nationalists joining
the Progressists, and thus forming a
Liberal opposition strong enough to i'm
PERIL the passage of the bill.
The first heard of the Samoan disaster
WAS telegram from London early this
morning. Neither the Admiralty nor
the Foreign Offices had received any di-
rect cable advices, and were loath to be-
lieve the report true. Inquiry at London
appeared to confirm the story, and there
was general CONSERVATION. 1t WAS not
until this afternoon that official tele-
grams reached the Admiralty.
Count Herbert Bismarck returns from
his English mission Monday, his fathers
birthday. He says he has made ar
rangements for grand public
demonstration on the occasion of EN-
peror Williams visit to England. The
visit has been definitely fixed for July.
The strike outbreak is so general that
it would appear to be an organized CO.
operation of trade centers. In Hamburg
the masons, plumbers and carpenters are
out on refusal of their employers to in
crease their wages. The Workmen's
Syndicate approves of the strike, and the
men accepting the employers terms will
be excluded from the privileges of their
unions. At Elbergeld and Barwen the
manufacturing works are closed and the
men are out. At Nuremburg the carvers
and toymakers are out

ON woLFLEY's TRAIL.
The latest charges against Louis Wolf
ley, who has once been confirmed Gov
ernor OF Arizona, but is now held up by
a motion to reconsider. are said to relate
to his services as Internal Revenue
Agent in Louisiana. They are to the
effect that he took money from distillers
to enable them to continue to do busi-
ness in violation Of law. Mr.. Wolfey
says the report was doubtless originated
by some one affected by his action in
closing certain distilleries in Louisiana.
j. w. Elder was given as the name of
the man who would appear to-day and
maxi oath to the truth of the charges,
but he failed to show up.

should seek fitting occasion to testify gratitude
and ascribe praise TO him who is the author of
their many blessings.
1t behooves us then to look back with thankful
hearts over the past year and bless God for his
infinite mercy in vouchsafing to our land endur-
and famine, to our husbandmen abundant har-
vests, and to them that labor recompense of
their toll.
Now, therefore, ], BENJAMIN Harrison Presi-
dent of the United States of America do ear
nestly recommend that Thursday, the twenty
eighth of this present month of November, be
set apart as day of national thanksgiving and
prayer and that the people of our country,
ceaSing from the cares and labors of their
working day, shall assemble in their respective
places of worship and give thanks to God, who
has prospered us on our way and made our
paths paths of peace; beseeching him to bless
the day to our present and future good, making
it truly one of thanksgiving for each reunited
home circle as for the nation at large.
In witness whereof I have-hereunto set nv
hand and caused the seal of the United States
to be affixed

ACCEPTS THE CRUISER.
The Charleston to be Added to the
Navy, Despite shortcomings.

The Charleston to be Added to the
Navy, Despite shortcomings.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Secretary Tracy
to-day formally accepted the protected
cruiser Charleston, built by the Union Iron
Works company of San Francisco, upon the
showing made in her test some weeks ago.
The report of the trial board, while saying
that the vessel had been built according to
contract, contained some ambiguity of
expression which Secretary Tracy desired
to have made plain before acting finally.
The report was therefore returned, and the
board re-convened to amend it. The revised
report was received at the department yes
terday, and being conclusive and satisfac-
tory, acceptance of the vessel was ordered.
LACK OF HORSE POWER.
On the test Of the Charleston she failed to
show her horsepower required by the con-
tract by 800, which would impose penalty
of $33,0O0 The boiler capacity of the
vessel was not reached by the machinery.
and the constructors asked for auothe
trial, indicating Sc veral slight changes in
the gear that would be made, but the de-
partment concluded not to permit second
trial to take place. Whether or not under
this condition of things the government can
enforce the payment Of a penalty is ques-
tlon that viii have TO be decided when the
question of final settlement is under con-
sideration. There is a penalty against the
vessel of about 81 500 for delay in COM
pletion. The contract price of the Charles
ton was 81 OF, 600, and the contractors
have been paid 1924, ,875.
The Secretary of the Navy to-day
awarded to Harrison Loring Of Boston, a
contract for constructing cruiser No. II, of
1900 tons displacement, for s674 900, to be
completed in two and half years from to-

PAN AMERICAN TOURISTS.
The Arrival at Indianapolis Heralded
by Bells.


INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. Lit appeared that
every bell in Indianapolis was ringing this
morning as the international American
excursion train glided into the station. All
of the party were in bed, but the claugor
soon awakened them, and they were at the
breakfaSt-table when the reception COM
mttee, the mayor, and other prominent
citizens boarded the train. Soon after 8
o'clock the train was run out Of town about
five miles to the works of a large milling
machine company, where an hour was spent
IL examining machinery.
AT THE STATE CAPITOL.
After returning to the city the party in

RAUM AND THE PENSIONS.
a COURT OF REVIEW, OF WHICH
HE Is THE CHIEF.

All the Important Cases Brought to
Its Attention and Passed Upon - 1t
Gives the Commissioner Complete
Knowledge of What is Going On.
The Rerated Employees.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.--Gen. Raum, com
missioner OF pensions, Col. Butterfield,
chief of the board of re-review in the pen
sion office, and Mr.. Van Mater, chief the
board of review, now constitute court
whose jurisdiction is confined exclusively to
pension cases. AT a sitting of this court
the two associate judges, as they may be
termed, bring to Presiding Justice
Raum's attention all the more i'm
portant cases that are passed
upon in the pension office, and especially
those involving payment of large amounts
of money. Two subordinate officers who
have thorough acquaintance with pension
matters state briefly the facts and law in
each case, and if Commissioner Raum ap-
proves of their conclusions a certificate Of
pension is granted.
WHAT 1T ACCoMPLIsHEs.
1t is said that this court does not delay
the issuance of pensions and that more
over, it gives Gen. Raum, who is made re-
sponSlble for the conduct of the office, an
opportunity to know exactly what is tax
ing place. Heretofore the commissioner
has practically done no more than sign his
name to the certificates laid before him,
unless some special circumstance brought
the matter more closely to his attention.
RERATED EMPLOYEES.
There seems to be great deal of per-
plexity at the pension office and interior de-
partment as to the proper course to pursue
toward those employees whose pensions were
rerated. The commission which investi-
gated the cases found, in many instances,
that the employees were unquestionably en-
titled to the increased rate of pension, but
that the method by which the reratings were
secured was irregular and characterized by
undue haste. As the claims were just, even
if rushed through the office, it is not be-
lieved that the pensioner can be called
upon to refund the money received.
TALK OF DIsMIssALS.
There is still some talk of dismissing sew
eral of the .rerated employees because of
their haste in pushing their own claims
through, but from official sources it is
learned that nothing will be determined
upon until after Gen. Raum and Secretary
Noel have had another conference 1t is
expected that at this conference the
question will also be brought up as to what
course shall be pursued in the cases of those
employees whose pensions the commission
reported were rerated contrary to law. 1t
is said that the government can compel the
return of this money or cease further pay
ment of pensions until further reimburse
ment is secured.
