THE BERLIN MEETING OPENED
WITH A GRAND PARADE.
American Visitors Given the Place off
Honor.--A Speech Of Welcome from the

BERLIN, July 6.-The German federal
rifle meeting opened today. A splendid
procession, starting from Brandenburg,
marched through the decorated streets
to the shooting grounds. A herald car
rying the imperial banner led the pro-
cession. The different bodies taking
past in the parade were arranged in or
der'according to their nationalities, the
visiting American rifenen taking pre-
cedence over the other foreign organiza-
tions. A series of Industrial groups fol-
lowed, and after that came riflemen
representing the development of the
German shooting guilds since the thir-
teenth century attired in the costume
of the different periods. A number of
pictorial cars closed the procession. On
recahing the town hall each section was
gregated with f1ourishof trumpets, and
when all had arrived Burgomaster
Forckenbeck delivered an address of
welcome.
Vhe paraders were given an ovation
by the thousands of spectators thatlin

AN UMPIRE SLUGGED FOR AN
UNPOPULAR DECISION.
San Francisco Wins at Stockton and
Oakland Beats Sacramento at the
Golden Gate.

STOCKTON, July 6.-The umpiring of
Chase in yesterdays ball game was un-
satisfactory, and it was agreed that
today's game should be umpired by
Manager Finn and Secretary Shelly, but
the double umpiring fell through, and
the captains of the teams selected
George G. Coughlin, of San Jose, as UNI
pire in the game between the Stock
tons and San Franciscos today.
In the eighth inning Coughlin
allowed Levy to score on a foul
ball that went by the catcher and de-
cided that Selma was out at the plate on
home-run hit beyond the bicycle path.
When he made the latter decision the
crowd went wild and threatened to mob
him. When the game ended Coughlin
went to the dressing room with a mob
after him, and when on the inside he
was attacked by Selma, struck in the
face and knocked down. Sheriff Cum
ningham and squad of policemen broke
open the door and rescued him, escort
ing him off the grounds. Score-Stock-
ton, 4; San Francisco, 5.
SAN Francisco, July 6.-The ball game
today between the Oaklands and Sacra-
mentos was a slogging match, with
triples, doubles and singles from first to
last. In one innings the Oaklands had
the. bases full and no outs, yet. they
failed to score. The batteries were Golf
and Lohman, and Hoffman and Bournan.
The Oaklands made the largest number
of hits, but had fewer stolen bases and
more errors.

Slow as the west has been in waking
up to its own interest in this matter, the
bllndest protectionist can hardly hope
shat the agricultural states can be kept
indefinitely in the fold Of the faithful, or
that the confidence game which has

farmer for twenty-five years can escape
detection now after a fair opportunity
for it's examination has been enjoyed.

Our father who art in England, Roth

to America; thy will be done in the
United States as it is in England. Give
us this day our bonds in gold, bat no
silver; give us plenty of laboring mems
votes to keep monopoly in power and it's
friends in offices. We know, our father,
we have done maay things that were
wrong; we have robbed the hoaest poor
and brought distress to many door.
We know it is wrong to refund the
bonds and make them payable in coin.
We know that it was wrong to de-
monetize silver; we know it was wrong
to water our stocks, but thou knowest
that we made money by that. Now,
our father, thou knowest that we are
above politics. 1t is the same to us
whether Democrats or Republicans rule,
for thou knowest we are able to sway all
political jobs in our favor. Lead us not
in the way of the strikers, but deliver
us from the insane Knights of Labor and
the Farmers Alliance. Thus shall we
have the kingdom Of bonds, interest,
power and gold until the republic shall
end. Amen.

The Subsidy But Small Portion of

Aversion of the Railroad to Outside

Associated Press Dispatches |

SAN Francisco, July 6.-Among we'll
informed officials at Fourth and Towns
end streets belief in Huntington's re-
fusal to build the coast road is we'll nigh
universal. A high official of the South.
ern Pacific Company, saw today, in
answer to a question concerning the
closing OF the gap between Santa Mar
garita and Ellwood: "Why, of course
the road will be built; that was decided
by Mr.. Huntington some time ago. It
is on the books, and if the Southern Pa
clfic Company shall continue to build
and operate railroads there can be no
doubt of its construction.
"Wlll the matter be expedited or in
any way influenced by the action of the
convention which recently met at San
Jose? ?'
II don't believe that the action of
this meeting, or any other meeting
which may be held in the future for a
similar purpose, will have the effect of
hurrylng the construction of the road in
question. When Mr.. Huntington is
convinced that the venture Will be a
success financially then, and not until
then, will this road be built"
If the conditions OF Cooper's contract
are carried out would not the financial
success OF the scheme be an assured
fact; in other words, would not the
Southern Pacific company be amply se-
cured and insured against loss ?"
mo; the sum of $315,OOO has
been offered the company, together
with depot facilities and rights-of
way. This seems to a person on the
outside as very large sum of money-a
magnificent gift-but how does it com
pare with the cost of construction, which
is estimated at $5,OOO,OO Though the
amount was twice that offered, do not
believe Mr.. Huntington would accept it.
He has often expressed himself as op-
posed to accepting subsidies. That is
not railroading, and is sure to entangle
the company receiving the subsidy in
endless controversy and difficulty. III
the people contribute one dollar toward
the construction of road they think
they own it, and are always interfering
in it's OperatiOn.'

a congressional Forecast for
- the Coming Week.
The Silver Bill May Emerge
from the Conference.
Frye's Shipping Bills Have the Right
of Way in the Senate.
The Tariff Discussion Liable to Go Over
for Another Week-Appropriation
Bills to Be Passed.
Associated Press Dispatches. |

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Frye's ship.
ping bills are unfinished business on the
senate calendar for tomorrow, and he
hopes to have them disposed of without
further delay. He will then ask to have
the river and harbor bill taken up. This
bill, with the amendments which the
committee on commerce has authorized
Frye to offer, carries an appropriation
of about sic, 100000, and he says that it
is the best bill of the kind ever pre-
pared.
Morrill,, chairman of the finance COM
mittee, will endeavor to have the tariff
bill made the order of business after the
shipping bills are out of the way. The
tariff bill, it is understood, will be in
charge of Senator Aldrich. If the river
and harbor bill gets the right-of-way it
is more than probable that the tariff de-
bate will not be begun in earnest until
next week, as there are three appropria-
ton bills to come before the senate this
week, one of which, the sundry
civil. is likely to precipitate
debate of some length. Among its
provisions, as it passed the house, is an
appropriation of $72O, 900 for geological
and irrigating surveys, to be expended
under the direction of Director Powell,
and this will be antagonized by Stewart
and possibly by other western senators
who want the irrigation survey to be
conducted by the agricultural depart
ment. 90
The other two appropriation bills are
the Indian and consular and diplomatic.
The report of the conference committee
on the silver bill, which is privileged
matter, is likely to be presented before
the close of the week, and it will proba-
bly, give rise for debate of some
length.
A caucus of Republican senators is
expected this week to decide whether or
not to take up the election bill, which
will probably be received from the house
tomorrow, at this session. The proceed
ings in the house promise to be compar-
atively uninteresting. Probably the
general deficiency appropriation bill
the last of the appropriation bills-will
be acted upon before the week is ended.
The election committee is desirous of
securing consideration for two contested
election cases MILLER VS.. Elliott, of
South Carolina, and Langston VS.. Ven
able, of Virginia), which have been
some time on the calendars. The friends
OF the bankruptcy bill also expect to be
able to get that measure before the
house this week.

THE PATENT SCANDAL.
EX-GOVERNOR STONE DENIES THAT
HE. WAS BRIBBsD.
The Making of the Lists Simply Matter
of Business'-A Cheap Sensation
Spoiled.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 6!--The Chron-
icle's Seattle special says: Ex-Governor
Stone, of Iowa, ex-commissioner-general
Of the land Office, was seen today in
regard to the charge made in the senate
of his collusion with attorneys in ex-
torting fees from persons entitled to un-
claimed patents. He said: ''There are
between one hundred thousand and
three hundred thousand unclaimed pat
ents lying in the general land office
at Washington, covered with dust, cum
bering the pigeon holes and cases of
the ofhce and occupying room that is
badly needed for more important papers.
They have been great incum brance to
our room there for years. Efforts have
been made to have them distributed to
the parties to whom they belong While
was acting commissioner number Of
applications were made by at
torneys for list of the patents
belonging to the several counties in
their states. This was considered as a
matter OF business by the attorneys ap-
plying, for which they expected to re-
ceive compensation from the parties en-
titled to the patents, but was coma
PEELED to decline to make these lists, it
being impossible to make them out as
desired from the fact that the patents
do not show upon the face OF them the
counties to which they belong.
Sometime last summer the Washing
ton representative Of New York law
firm came into the general land office
with Col. w. w. Dudley and presented
me letter from Assistant. Secretary Of
the Interior General Cyrus Bussey, stat
ing that he was well acquainted with
said firm, and that they were highly re-
spectacle, honorable gentlemen. The
representative of the. firm re-
quested permission to make out
lists of these unclaimed patents,
OF course understood it to be matter
of business with the frm,, for doing
which they would charge enough to re-
munerate them for their labor. Know
ing that it was exceedingly desirable to
rid the department of these old patents,
gave them permission to make these
lists, which to some extent was done, but
LIDO not know how far. also gave this
firm letter commencing theirundertak-
ing to those who were desiroUs of;Obtain-
ing these patents. They assured me that
they should only charge for their work
and responsibility very moderate and
reasonable fee, which, so far as I know,
they have done. When it, is said on the
floor of the senate, as the news
paper report states, or in any
other place by senator or any other
cheap slanderer that l had the least in
terest either directly or Indirectly in do
ing what did brand him as an unmit-
igated liar. / did no more than ought
to have been done and would do the
same again under similar circumstances.

Locusts ON the Red Sea.

The steamer Yang-Tse, which arrived
at Marseilles recently with the mails
from the far east, met with curious ex-
perience in the Red sea on her voyage
from Alden to Suez. For upwards of
twenty-four hours she made her way
through veritable bank of locuHs. It
is estimated that these insects covered
the sea over surface of 1926 miles, and
that they would have sufficed amply to
ruin the vegetation OF an entire country.
AS it is, all these locusts were drowned,
and, instead of carrying devastation in
their train, have provided the Red sea
fish with a rich and unwonted banquet.
