EUROPEAN WAR RUMORs.
t BERLIN, Aug. 3.-Prlpce Bismarck's
newspaper organ, the Hamburger Mach
ric1tea, asserts that General Count Won
,, Waldersee and other eminent and we'll
; known persons in the encourage of Kaiser
Wilhelm, are strongly urging upon the
kaiser their belief that both the time and
the situatson of European affairs are now
opportune for the consummation of a
J comblued attack by the powers of the
triple alliance, together with Turk Y and
Bulgaria, upon Russia. Count Won Wal
dersee instantly wired to the newspapers
d fiat denial of the assertion of the Mach
richtea, but the latter maintains the truth
of its statement and declares that such
scheme of corporation is really advised
by the Waldersee circle.
Prince Bismarck, who is understood to
have inspired the statements OF the Mach
richten, would be prompted to dlvulge
such information as this, if be possessed
1t, by his general idea that friendship
with Russia Is the best policy for Ger
many. Bismarck also hates Waldersee
and his set This much, at least, is cer-
tain, that Kaiser Wilhelm will adhere to
a policy of peace, pending his coming in
terview with tie car, whatever course lie
may choose to take after that; So there
is no immediate danger of war!ike dem

STIRRING UP THE CENSUS BCREAU. a
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4-Senators Nit c
,hell and Dolph to-day went to the cer- I
Jus office and presented request for an q
entire recount OF the state of Oregon. 1t :
vas represented that the increase in the :
past ten years by all other statistics
showed that the population was much :
greater than the returns OF the present
census indicated, ard that the people of
Oregon universally believed that the CEN o
us had been very inefficient. Superin- a
endent Porter telegraphed Supervisors fl
Kelly and Strange to report at once upon 81
he situation and furnish information If

considerable portion of the people of Ore .
ron, some details as to the basis of the L
demand and how far the demand of the "
people Is justified by fact and such other tt
ietails as will give the office the most Al
;cmplete information on the subject. a
The superintendent also telegraphed .,
special Agent Kruze, now at Minneapo- =
is, to furnish such additional information
egarding the situation iu Oregon as he d
nay have. The census officials do not "
ncline toward a recount, because there N
re, no doubt, other states who would w

which would make lite burdensome to al
