BERLIN, Aug. 24.-[Copyright 1889. i
Compared with the visit of the late En-
peror William to Alsace-Lorraine in 1877,
the present Emperor's visit was phenomi-
nal success, and indicates the remarkable
progress made in Germanizing the pro-
vinces during the past decade.
Copenhagen kilograms announce that the
Gar and Czarina boarded the imperial
yacht at Peterhof, yesterday, and were ex-
pected in Copenhagen Tuesday, but at the
last moment the sailing was postponed. The
belief now is that they will disembark at
Stettin en- route to Copenhagen, and have
a brief quiet meeting with the Emperor at
Pottsdam.
An inspired article in the Cologne Gazette
on the results of the Emperor's visit to
Osborne says the relations between Eng
land and Germany are beginning to be
much more friendly. Owing, however, to
the opposition uof the Radicals in parlia-
ment, the English government is compelled
to proceed cautiously towardua rapproche-
meut with Germany. The Gazette adds:
"Whetherthe Gar comes or not, there
is small hope that the relations between
Russia and Germany will improve"
The NOUOe Vremyd and other leading Rus

A Steamer on Fire.

New YORK, Aug. M.-The Pacific Mail
steamship City of Paris, with twenty-nine
cabin passengers, arrived at Sandy Hook
this morning from Aspinwall. The beams
of her forward hatch were burned and
scorched and bore the outward marks Of
the big fire which came very near destroy
ing the vessel and it's precious cargo. ,..ss
The Paris left New York the first part Of
this month with full cargo of merchan-
disc. She reached Aspinwal in due sea-
son and the longshoremen and sailors had
discharged total of $50 tons of the cargo
from the hold when fire was discovered
among the cotton and naval stores, which
were slowed in the forward compartment.
This was on the evening of August IL, two
days after the vessels arrival. The fire
had complete control of the fore
hold when discovered, and before the
alarm could be sounded great sheets
of flames and v0lumns of binding smoke
filled the air over the forward part of the
craft The flames attracted the attention
of the ancient fire department of Aspin-
wall, which turned out and, with number
of American laborers about the dock, set
to work to assist the people of the steam
ship in extinguishing the flames. ALI
through the night of the 18th, the men
toiled, several fell exhausted as morning
came on from over work. The 18th OBJ
ened with the fire still burning fercely,
and towards noon of that day it looked as
if the steamer was doomed. During the
afternoon of the 18th the flames went
down as suddenly as they began and at
o'clock Captain Lockwood, the skipper of
the ship, reported the fire extinguished.
A very considerable quantity of the cargo
was destroyed and the interior of the
vessel is badly damaged.

WASHINGTON, Aug 24.-Acting Secretary
Walker this afternoon received by tele-
graph the following official report upon the
performance of the new cruiser Charleston
upon her trial yesterday near San Fran
cisco. The report is from Commodore Ben
ham, president of the trial board, and is
dated August "a and reads thus:
"Oficial trial of the Charleston's engines
and boilers finished yesterday afternoon.
Probable average total horsepower is
6, 700; maximum revolutions for one hour,
1l6 6-10; average revolutions for four hours,
lis; the vacuum was never below &c; the
ships draft at the starting of the trial was
10 feet II inches forward and 10 feet aft.
A continuous speed by the log of Is knots
was maintained. The ship was actually
under forced draft for eight hours and a
half. The performance of the machinery
and boilers was admirable. During the en-
tire period it was not found necessary TO
slow, nor was there any heating
Commodore Walker expresses himself as
highly gratified with the result of the trial.
He says the smooth running of the
machinery under the trying conditions of
forced draft for so long a time and the con-
tinuous high speed maintained, stamp the
Charleston as a vessel without superior.
1t will be noticed that the vessel showed
200 horse power, while the contract re-
quirement is 1000. The design contem-
plates speed of eighteen knots. This ap-
pears TO have zen realized, although there
is discrepancy in the horse power which,
if this trial should be accepted as final,
would subject the contractors to penalty.
Consequently the engineer officers believe
another trial will be had and that with the
machinery made smooth and the expert
ence gained in the preceding trials, the
vessel, which has already successfully met
all expectations in other respects, will
realize the technical condition of 7,0O0 horse
power.
The sea was very rough and with every
roll of the vessel her propellers were lifted
out of the water and the engines raced with
great rapidity, but Notwithstanding this
severe strain no hitch occurred. The
cruisers test as to seaworthy qualities was
severe, but she stood it we'll When she
reached smooth waterin the Santa Barbara
channel it did not make much difference to
her her speed, which averaged 1881 knots.
The long run under a forced draft was a
severe strain upon all the men obliged
to be in the engine room and fire
room, as the atmosphere was sitting, owing
to the intense heat from the furnaces, and
the fact that the matches had to be covered
to keep flying cinders from the machinery.

. Governor Waterman on Fields Arrest.

SACRAMENTO, Gala, Aug. 24.-Governor
Waterman to-day wrote a letter to At
torney- General Johnson, of California, in
which he says:
1.-THE arrest of Justice Field of the su-
preme court of the United States on the
unsupported oath of a woman who on the
very day the oath was taken, and often be-
fore, threatened his life, will be burning
disgrace to the state unless disavowed. l
therefore urge upon you the propriety of at
once instructing the district attorney Of
San Joaquin county to dismiss the unwar-
ranted proceedings against him."
Upon the receipt of this letter Attorney
General johnson wrote to the district
attorney stating that in view of the fact
that thereis no evidence duplicating Justice
Field in the shooting of Judge Terry, pub
lie Justice demanded that the charge
against him be dismissed. If any evidence
comes up hereafter duplicating any person
in the affair, the district attorney will of
course proceed against such person in the
usual manner.

Virgins OF WEATHER FAME.
Queen Victoria About to Confer an Imperial
Title Upon Him.


Especial to THE HERALD---Examiner Dlsptach. |
OTTAwA, Aug. 24.-There was not much
official work done at the desk of Professor
Ezekiel Stone Virgins, Canada's weather
prophet, yesterday as that gentleman had
received word from England that Queen
Victoria was about comforting an imperial
title upon him for services he has rendered
the scientific world. The professor was
the recipient of many congratulations.
The professor has not very pretty name
to attach to a title, and he is at loss to
know how he should style himself when
called upon to elect his future appellations.
He says the Queen has never forgotten the
service he rendered PrincessE Louise when
he warned her not to proceed on her sea
voyage across the Atlantic on the eve of
the great storms he had predicted. One of
his most recent valuable discoveries, he
says, is the recession of the earth from the
sun.
