EFEEcT IN GERMANY.
Almost Panic Among the Grain Brokers
md Merchanta.

Almost EAnic among tue Grnin broherb
and Merchanta.
BERLIN, Aug. 1.-THE ukase forbid.
ding the export from Russia OF rye and
rye meal of every kind and brand, which
was published in the official journal at
St. Petersburg yesterday, has created
an enormous sensation in this city.
The ukase came as complete surprise
to the dealers in grain here. Thereis
no doubt, however, that the Russian
government has forbidden the export
Of rye and rye meal, as the principal
brokers here have received special tele-
grams confirming the first public dis
patches announcing the prohibition.
The only point OF difference in the
public and private dispatches is in re.
gard to the date which the prohibition
will go into effect. Several Of the
earlier dispatches Of yesterday stated
that the ukase would take effect imme-
dtatety, while later kilograms an
be enforced until August %. This
short respite afforded great relief. The
influence OF this action on the part Of
the Russian Government was imme-
diatelySfelt on the bourse here. The
effect was to depress prices, although
values did not fall as low as it was ex-
pected they would, as many Of the lead
ing brokers had received correct nd.
vices as to the probable PRONUNCIATION
OF the decree.
One effect Of the ukase has been to
raise the price Of rye almost to the
price of wheat. Chancellor Won Cape
rivlis deaf to all the appeals made to
him to remove the grain duties, and
the full effect Of the Russian measure
will be felt for several days.
Russian franchises will ALSO suffer
from the prohibition as they are al
ready in sufficiently precarious con
dition, especially after Russia's futile
attempts to negotiate foreign loans.

rested by the police Of this city on a
charge of numbering and robbins scr
want girl, whose body was found in u
forest near Vienna, made what will I'M
doubtedly prove a successful attempt

believe that number Of other servant
girls. who were employed by the
Schneiders and who have mysteriously
disappeared, were murdered and robbed
bytheir employers, and the investiga-
tions they have made since the prisoners
were taken into custody confirm the
suspicious that the SchHeiders have for
