The Oklahoma Situation.

Major-Gen. Crook at Chicago, is keeping the
War department well informed as to the con-
dition of things at Oklahoma, forwarding all
that Gen. Merritt, who is stationed in that new
country, reports to him. The following was
received yesterday at the department:
Reports from King Fisher. Guthrie and
Purcell state that everything progressed yes
terday in quiet and orderly manner. The re-
ports indicate that there are from ten to twelve
thousand people in the territory. Capt. Near
thur, at Guthrie, reports about three thousand
there, and there are from three to four thou
sand in this vicinity and between here and Pur-
cell. Lieut. Dodge, Of my staff, whom | or
dered to Purcell on duty. returned last night
about 9O'clock, andreported everything moving
in satisfactory manner and the incoming set
tiers cheerful and well disposed. This may be
said to be the condition of affairs III all sections
of the country. In my opinion quite a number
of people have been deferred from entering
the country owing to the exaggerated reports
as to numbers coming in and the difficulties Of
getting here. However, from reports from
Forts Sill, Reno and elsewhere. l am satisfied
the arrangements perfected will prevent serious
trouble OF any kind, though there may in re-
mote sections of the country be individual cause
of strife

THE KAISER WANTS MONEY.
Hence he has Ordered a Suspension Of
Persecution of Hebrews.

LONDON, April 25.-Advices from Berlin 10
Jewish inancier here states that il is very
doubtful that Chaplain Stoeckers noticeable
silence of late is due TO his illness as reported
1t is intimated that his absence from the pulpit
is owing to private admonition that the
persecution of Hebrews in Germany is
to cease for while at least The
reverend Jew-baiter took the hint in very bad
humor, but there is probably nothing more
serious the matter with him than fit of the
sulks az mis- enforced suspension from his favor

THE VISIT OF KING HUMBERr
to Berlin will naturally be made the occasion Of
a most impressive military display, in order that
the Italian visitors may be made to understand
the superiority of the German army to any
continental force. There is much dissatisfac-
tion in the peninsula at the triple alliance es-
pecially in the southern part. The police
lately succeeded in preventing an attempted
outbreak at Naples. The journals are forbidden
TO mention II, but in spite of all denials it
threatened at one time to be a serious affair.
nor is there any proof that il was instigated by
priests. as is generally alleged in such cases.
The suffering among the agricultural classes is
great. and there does not seem 70 be any pros
Dpect of improvement of trade
Though Signor Crispi is promised that no
papal nuncio will be received az Berlin as a re-
ward for the adherence of Italy. il is not
thought there will be much grief at the vatican
for what is more of discourtesy than sub
stantial deprivation.
LETTING UP on THE SOCIALISTS
1t is officially stated that the Importance OF
the socialistic demonstrations in different parts
of Germany has been greatly exaggerated.
The government press say that il has been
thought best to allow such people more lati-
tude in speech and print than has been given
TO them of late, trusting to the good sense of
respectable citizens to take their frothy words
at their full value only, believing that the agi-
tators will subside into their normal nothing
ness when the complaint of persecution is over.
