BERLIN, August 2.-[Copyrighted by
the New York Associated Press, 1890. +
Before starting for Ostend On his way
to England yesterday noon Emperor
William held council on board the i'm
perial yacht Hohenzollern, attended by
Chancellor Caprivi and Ministers Miguel
and Marschal. The Hohenzollern left
Wilhelmshaven at noon to convey the
Emperor to Ostend to visit King Leo
pold. The political character of the
meeting is undoubted. The Hohenzol-
lern entered Ostend harbor at AS to-
day. Immense crowds, including most
OF the German and English vis-
itors, lined the quay. King Leo
pold, accompanied by the Count of
Flanders, went on board the Hohenzol-
lern, and effusive greetings were ex-
changed between the king and Emperor
William and Prince Henry. The two
monarchs retired to the saloon of the
imperial yacht, where they remained in
conversation for half an hour. After
wards the emperor went ashore, and,
after inspecting the guard of honor from
| the garrison, received the Belgian min
listers and the staff OF the German
legation.
Warnings had reached the Berlin po-
lice that the anarchists OF Liege, who
are affiliated with the French socialists,
meant to make q hostile demonstration,
and if possible attack the person of the
kaiser. This information caused extra
precautions to be taken.
Nothing marred the enthusiasm of the
welcome upon their arrival at the sum-
mer palace. Ostend was everywhere en-
fete. Tonight there were torchlight pro-
cessions, concerts, etc.
Official expectation here will be quite
at fault if the interview does not result
in Belgium becoming sleeping partner
in the triple alliance.
Family meetings will be held at Os-
borne to determine whether Prince
Waldemar, of Denmark, or Prince Os-
car, of Sweden, shall be placed upon
the Bulgarian throne. Emperor Will
lam continues to favor Prince Oscar
as the better choice ON the

Tenny Wins an Exciting Race at Mon
mouth Park.
MONMOUTH PARK, August 2.-The
event of the day was the third race.
Firenzi was the first away, with Tenny
last. Murphy at once took pull on
Firenzi and Chesapeake started out
to act as peacemaker. At
he quarter he was leading by
two lengths, with $3.50 second, a
length in front of Firenzi, who was
neck before Tenny. At the half Chesa
peake had increased his lead to three
lengths, while Tenny had commenced
to move up and was neck in front of
Firenzi, with $3.50 head away. From
that point it was veritable walk-away
for Tenny. At the three-fourths he was
leading by length and half and run
ming easily, while Firenzi was third and
getting the whip at every jump. She
could not gain an inch on Tenny,
Notwithstanding Murphy's vigorous
riding, and without ever having been
touched by the whip or spur, Pulsifer's
swayback won in the easiest possible
manner by three lengths. In the very
last strides Firenzi got up and beat
Chesapeake short head for a place,
while $3.50 was last. The time, :43A,

MONEY FOR GUATEMALA
The San Salvador Colony in New York
Greatly Excited.


New YORK, August 2.-All the mem
bers of the San Salvadorean colony in
this city were in a high state of excite
ment today. This was caused by the
announcement of the arrival here and
the sudden departure Of Francois Cottu,
special commissioner of the Guatemalan
treasury department, with $2,000000, a
portion of the proceeds of the sale of
Guatemala bonds in London. AS San
Salvador and Guatemala are at war, the
capture OF Commissioner Cottu with his
treasure would be big feather. Most
extraordinary efforts are therefore being
made to intercept him in Panama or
elsewhere.
AS Cottu sailed Friday on the Pacific
Mail steamship City of Para, he ought
to arrive at Colon on Saturday next. In
addition to men who have started over
land to Mexico by rail, the cable has
been used to inform General Ezeta of
the situation, and also to acquaint the
few San Salvadoreans resident in the
Panama district of the approah of the
travelling commissioner. But Cottu
cannot be taken without struggle.
Both he and his secretary, Flori, are
armed to the teeth and will resist any
attack.
The San Salvadoreans are aware that
they will not only gain large amount
OF money by apprehending Cottu, but
his capture with bag full of valuable
documents relating to the big loan would
be a disastrous blow to Guatemala.
The commissioner has in his possession
letters of credit on the International
Bank of London and other financial in
stitutions representing nearly $16,550,-
600, in addition to the $20OO,O0O in
specie. The loss of that large sum
would injure Guatemala and interfere
with her plan of action.

A FLUID STUMP EXTRACTOR.
How nm AIIeRhcninu Throvc in the Pine
Woods of the Northwest.

How m AlleRhcniau Throvc In the Pine
Woods of the Northwest.
New uses for petroleum aad its bi-prod-
ucts are being found almost monthly. One is
as stump extractor. An Alleghenian
named Murray conceived a plan to make
money with but little expenditure of the
sweat of his brow. He is said to have sue
ceeded admirably in the Northwest, where
there is some very nice land covered with
pine stumps, which are not only
an eyesore, but big loss to
cultivators. Murray reasoned that if they
were saturated with benzine they could be
burned with little effort. He experimental
and found his fertile brain had borne fruit.
He then got supply of benzine and adver-
tsed it as the Great American Stump Ex-
tinguisher. He had an instrument fabri-
Gated by which he could perforate stump
in a minute or two. He would then pour u
quart of benzine into the aperature and
close the hole so as to prevent
evaporation. In few hours
the benzine would get through
all the pores of the stump-if quart was
insufficient for a very large stump, more
would be used. When saturated, he fired
the stump, and it would burn down into the
roots, leaving holes in their places.
In some OF the pioneer villages he got
large contracts to remove the stumps from
the streets, and made considerable money
before the people found that the invention
was not patented. As soon as they did, his
trade was gone.

Turning Guests Away 1. n Daily Occurrence
in Pftfsburg.
The hotels of Pittshurg are crowded to
overfowing. Every night people are turned
away from the Anderson and Duquesne.
For the past two years the proprietors OF
the Anderson have tried to secure the prop
erty adjoining the hotel on Penn avenue.
Their purpose is TO build an annex TO ac-
commodate their business. Chief Clerk
Crosby remarked yesterday that it wouldn't
cost much more to run the house II they
had 100 more rooms than it does now.
An amusing incident occurred at the An
derson the other night A pompous old
citizen grabbed the book with q flourish,
and started in to register his name.
"Did YOU telegraph for room, 113, P" the
clerk asked.
That's all right, young man." the old
chap answered. 81 have money" and he
threw down on the counter several one
dollar bills and a few pieces of paper.
81 am not questioning your ability to
paw" said Mr.. Wells, with politeness, ''but
if you didn't telegraph for room L haven't
one for you, but can give you a cot.
You are making a mistake, young man, "
the old fellow continued. You don't
known me-"
"Well, who are you?"
With a show of pomposity and a flourish
of the hands, he pronounced the epitaph
under which he travels. 1t was an ordinary
name, butth clerk confessed he didn't know
him.
",But that wouldn't make any difference -
he replied. eff had room I would be
glad to assign it to YOU"

and played with the boys who were folding
bags. The boys had regular rough-and-
tumble, when it suddenly occurred to the
motor boy that time was up and the gong
was rung. The motor man climbed on board
and the return trip commenced. The motor
man was asked if it was necessary some
times to put on car to accommodate the
farmers in taking their crops to market or
bringing nay from the meadow to the barn.
He said that they were never bothered in
that way at all, though some Of the farmers
used pretty big baskets.
The smoky cloud that rose above the hills
corld be seen on either hand and defined the
limits of the lower Southside. Over in the
"Dutchtown" district new buildings could
be seen here and there, and near the start
ing point, Knoxville loomed up into view
with houses stretching out in all directions.
This is the section that is soon to come
under the contractors hands and be the
East End of the Southside, according to the
predictions of many.

Bride.
There was only one marriage license
issued in Allegheny county yesterday, put
that one made things hum in the Registers s
office while it lasted. The applicant was
Thomas Williamson, q handsome coach,
man. He was almost a si1-footer, and mad

to love each other.
The young man, realizing the difference
in their positions, believed marriage I'm

matter in the same light, and continued to
hunt her lover. The matter was put In the
hands of the family attorney, A. II. Reed,

the man, and answered the Brookllne people.
In response, Yesterday Miss McNeight, ac-
companied by her aunt landed in the de-
tective's Office. She was a charming blonde,
