BERLIN, Feb. 2l-The results Of the cleo
ton, 50 far IS known. account for 234 seats.
As the reichstag has 397 members, this
leaves les to be accounted for. OF the "a.

In those places. The l42 members elected

10; National Liberals, 8; C@trisss, So:
German Liberals, IL: socialists. 20; Poles,
3; AIsafians. 10; Democrats, 5; Danes, /;

lost eighteen seats. 1t says that owing to
these losses the government will be unable
10 secure . majority in the reichstag.
The Eossocase Zeifaag says the socialists
votes were not ali cast by socialists, but
they express neral disapproval Of the

borsed and enc severely stabbed and taken
to the hospital. ri tolls were freely used
and many arrests were made.

The Raun Investigation.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-The special
committee of the house appointed to in
yestigate the charges against Commission
er Raum, met at the pension building
this morning for the purpose of taking
the testimony of 1888 clerks who, it was
charged, had received promotions by
Raum by reason of their purchasing
stock in the Universal Refrigerator com
pany. All OF the members were present
with the exception of Goodnight of Ken
lucky. The committee, however, decid-
cd not to call any of the clerk for exam
ination for the following reasons which
were entered on record: General Raum
requested the committee to subpoena ev-
cry employe OF the pension department
who had been promoted during his ad-
mlnlstration Of the office to disprove the
charge that any of such employees have
purchased or held stock in the Universal
Refrigerator com pany, or been promoted
by reason thereof. The committee declin-
ed to comply with his request on the
ground that it would interfere with the
pension business, because of consump.
ton Of time and needless expense. Mer.
ton, Flick and Lewis sustained the OBJ
lection, Sawyer dissenting. The com.
mittee then adjourned. This practically
closes the investigation and the report
will probably be made during the coming
week.

washed out and plowing must be done
over again and fields of crops must be
entirely resown.

and this congress have contributed enor-

principles without antagonizlng every
material interest of the state
