ANOTHER JOB FOR BLAINE.
Germany Sends Her Criminals &c
the United States.


WASHINGTON, April 2S-An inter-
national question has sprung up be-
tween the United States and Germany
through the action of German officials
in sending to this country an insane
German criminal. The matter is one of
Importance, coming on the heels of
the New Orleans trouble, and
indicates an intention on the part
of the United States government to
institute more rigid inspection of immi-
grants. The case that gives rise to the
action taken IS that of Nikolaus Bader,
who recently arrived in New York. In
an affidavit on file with the treasury de-
partment Bader states that he is fifty
mine years of age, and that he arrived
from Germany at the port of New York,
April %, by the steamship Waesland
from Antwerp; that his passage to this
country was paiu for him by the author
tiles in the town of StauZach, Germany;
that he has with him 81 in money; that
he has norelatives or friends in thiscoun-
try; that in 1864 he murdered girl with
whom he was in love, for which crime
he was imprisoned one year, when he
was declared insane, and was confined
in an insane asylum for twenty-four
years, and from which he was dis
charged somewhat over year ago: that
he requested to be sent to America, and
the authorities sent him here. Secre-
tary Foster has ordered that Bader be
returned to Germany by the steamship
company which brought him hlther,
and the fact that he was transported to
the United States at the expense of the
public authorities i'll Germany has been
called to the attention of the state de-
partment for such action as may be
deemed expedient.

FERGUS FALLS, Mum, April 2S. -
The case of the Assignee of the Page
Flour Mills Company VS.. The Fergus
Falls National Bank was uied to-day
before Judges Baxter and Searle. Last
fall the Page Mill company, of which
ii. q. Page was treasurer and James
Compton secretary, became financially
embarrassed, the mill company owing
some S97, ,OOO The Fergus Falls
National bank, of which Mr.. Page was
president, was a creditor to the amount
of $4,000. Suit was begun by the
bank, Judgment entered against the
mill company and all the assets
levied upon before the other cred
itors were aware of the situation. The
German-American Bank of St. Paul
which was a creditor for $4,000, and
Maurin Brothers, creditors for $1,000, at
once began snit to set aside the judg-
ment, which it was claimed was OBJ
tanned through cOlluSiOn with the mill.
The case was tried in January, and but
little evidence was discovered to prove
the case. 1t subsequently got out that
the First National and Citizens Ma
tiOnal bank were creditors for $1,000
each, and in order that there might be
no slip in the Fergus Falls National OBJ
tanning the judgment it agreed to pro-
rate with them. These facts were
brought out at the trial to-day. The
court took the case under advisement.

WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The Chinese
government has notified the government
of the United States. through the de-
partment of state, of its unwillingness
to receive Henry W. Blair as our minis
ter to China. This is all the infOrma-
tion that could be obtained here to-
night. Secretary Blaine would not
talk upon the subject, and the Chinese
minister sent down word to callers
that he had retired and his interpreter
was not in the house. Mr.. Blair is not
in Washington, but his son was found
and expressed surprise when informed
of the action of the Chinese govern
ment. 1t was, he said, the first that any
of the family had heard of it. His
father, he felt sure, was not aware of
the situation. 1t is we'll under
stood here that the objection to Mr..
Blair is based upon his utterances con-
cerning the Chinese question, and that
the republication of extracts from his
speeches produced deep impression
upon the minds of prominent Chinese
officials, which finally resulted in the
notification received by the depart
ment of state this evening. The
OuJ6ctlOn OF Cn6 CnlneS6 government 10
Mr. Blair caused no excitement here. as
this government recognizes the right of
a foreign power to express its unwill-
ingnesS to receive minister who Is not
entirely acceptable.
What Blair Says.
PrTTsBURG, Pa. April 2S.-Ex-Sena-
tor Henry w. Blair, of New Hampshire,
who was recently appointed minister to
China, passed through Pittsburg to-
night on his way to San Francisco,
whence he expects to sail for China. He
did not know tonight Of the report
that his appointment had been re-
pudiated by the Chinese government
at Pekin on account of his anti-Chinese
utterances in the senate. When asked
what kind of a reception he expected at
the hands of the Chinese, he replied. ~

it gives me little concern. have al

BLAINE WILL QUIT.
Authoritative Statements That He
Will Not Run Again,

PoUGHKEEPsIE, n. Y, April 2s.-
The News Press, of which Mr.. Hinch-
ley, formerly of the New York Graphic,
is editor, publishes this morning the
following:
stephen B. Elkins is authority for state
ment made to a representative of the News
Press to the effect that James G. Blaine would
shortly announce his decision, not under any
circumstances to allow his name TO be used
at the next Republican national convention
as q candidate for president. 1t is said that
Mr.. BlaineS letter or announcement will be
so positive as to admit of but one construct
tion-and that is that he will ueyer again be
a candidate for the presidency. The Hon.
Smith M. Weed, although & Democrat has
fnence who are Republicans, and he also has
when the time came, Mr.. Blaine would
be found positively declining the nomiua-
ton. Mr.. Weed has been so outspoken on
this subject recently, when talking to his
friends as to give the impression that his in
formation was as direct as that of Mr.. Elk
ins, who is known to be Mr.. Blaine's inti-
mate friend and closest political adviser. W.
j. Arkell, editor and proprietor of Judge
and whose associate in the ownership of
Frank Leslie's is Russell B. Harrison also
says that Mr.. Blaine is about TO come out with
a most positive refusal to allow his name to
be used again in connection with the presi-
dency. In fact, Mr.. ArKell expects soon to
be permitted to publish the full text of Mr..
Blaine's letter on the subject"
St. Paul daily globe., 1891-04-29

this matter, even although it be lead
ing subject of our time. But, neverthe-
less, he demands this relative interyen-
ton, changing according to places and
circumstances, whenever justice, legiti-
mate interests and diSregarded rights
require it. Thus, for our particular
epoch, Pope Leo XIII. exacts state in
tervention in favor of fixing the max
imum number of hours to be worked
each day, of fixing day Of rest. of pre-
scrlblng the minimum wage, of reguIat-
ing the work or women and children,
and OF Intervention III matters regard
ing hygiene and the conditions under
which work is performed in factories,
In these respects the pope strikes the
exact medium, as far from the doctrin-
ism of those who aim at raising
this intervention of the state to
an absolute principle as from the
fear evinced by the old parties,
who affect ridiculous dread of
any intervention whatever on the part
of the state. Leo Ill. strikes the true
note, the normal equilibrium, whilst he
carefully avoids in any way prejudicing
such social problems as may arise later
on under other conditions and which re-
Quire other solutions"
what is the supreme inspiration of
the dOcument?"
ITO put Catholicism, doctrinally and
intellectually, at the head of the social
movement. Leo XIII. is convinced that
the democracy of America imported
under other forms will be the mould by
which the future society and politics of
Europe will be fashioned. The democ-
racy, the people, will become the pre-
ponderating power, and the papacy
should constitute herself the guide of
this ideal, and this new social develop
ment."

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., April 2S.-The'
Plenty Horses trial will be finished to-
morrow, the defense resting their case
late this afternoon, and the government
announcing that they had no rebuttal
to make. Judge Shiras rendered his de
ciSiOn upon the question of the jurisdic
ton of the court, t,overruling the motion of
the defense. This decision is consid-
cred an important one, as IL uphOldS
the proposition that the Indians have
no right to 90 to war. and the courts
recognize them upon the same level as
an American citizen and not as a Sepa-

| how Hill distracted the funds has not
yet been made public. 1t is said that
the solvency of the bank is i'll no way
impaired by the loss. National Bank
examiner Hepburn, who was cloSeted
with the officers of the Ninth National
bank and committee from the clear

/ following statement at late hour:
An examination of the Ninth National

| and Twentytourth wards of this city. AS

the following report at the same time:
An examination made by the national bank

show that a loss of a6out S40O00O has been
made by misap apDrODTiatiOn of its funds by its

PLEADS NOT GUILTY.
DIR. Graves Says He Is Not Mrs.
Barnaby's Murderer.

Boston, April 2S.-The Globe inter-
viewed DR.. Graves in Providence this
morning concerning the recent suspi-
cious death of Mrs. j. B. Barnaby in
Denver. In the interview the doctor is
made to say that he is satisfied it was
a premeditated murder, but that he
knew nothing about the crime himself; :;
certainly he did not commit it, as has
been implied by the newspapers. He
had every reason to wish Mrs. Barnaby
to live, since she paid him a very
liberal salary. He left Providence for
Denver, knowing Mrs. Barnaby was
dead. considering it his duty as her
agent, but did not notify any of her
relatives or friends in Providence. He
went to Chicago, then down to Sterling,
ILL.,, to visit an uncle he had not seen
for thirty years, spent four hours with
him, then went to Cedar Rapids to see
another relative. In consequence, he
lost the fast train west and did not
reach Denver till Friday. He did net
consider his visiting extraordinary at
the time, but admitted that now it looks
bad for him. The doctor learned very
little in Denver of what took place at
the inquest. being so overcome that
he asked very fewquestions. Consider
he had forgotten it. He had never inn
agined the magnitude of his connection
with the case until he read the local
papers this morning. Yesterday he
had promised Mrs. Conrad and Col.
Winshlp that he would positively make
no use of certain information he had,
but this is now impossible: he was
forced to speak in order to protect him
self. He then went on to say that Mrs
Barnaby's will he had deposited with
her other papers, and he knew not
whether he had been left one cent
OF 100000 by it. Mrs. Barnaby
bered, but he asked no questions and
never looked at the will. This will. to-
gether with many Of Mrs. Barnaby's
valuable papers, and every dollar of
her money, could be turned over in ten
minutes, as soon as an administrator is
appointed. Asked as to his theory of
the murder, the doctor said he believed
the motive to be blackmail. He had
reasons to believe Mrs. Barnaby has
been repeatedly blackmalled by people
who first compromised her, and then
forced money from her by threats of
exposure. If she refused finally to
pay these amounts, it may have
oeen a case of desperate retaliation.
Said he: 81 must admit it looks fear
fully as if the murderer knew her habits
Intimately" He also stated that he did
not personally know any man who ever
blackmailed Mrs. Barnaby out of dol
lar. but it was his impression that she
was obliged to pay money to secure
silence. She appeared afraid of some
thing all the time. Regarding certain
charges of unprofessional conduct on
the part of Dr.. Graves in years past, as
published in local papers, the doctor
characterized them as being full of in
accuracies and libels, and declared that
he should sue for libel if the opportun-
ity offered.

FYFFE'S CASE.
1t Is Postponed on Account of
His Precarious Condition,

LONDON, April 2s.-The bearing in
the case of the charges against G. A.
Fyffe, the well-known historian of mod
ern Europe, was to have begun to-day,
but owing to the critical condition of
the accued, who, overwhelmed by the
charge against him, cut his throat yes
terday, the court granted an adjourn
ment. Mr.. Fyffe is a candidate of the
Liberal party for the vacant seat in the
house of commons for the Devises
division of Wiltshire, and his char
acter has always been above sus-
picion. The charge against him
that of committing an indecent as.
sault upon boy while travelling in a
railroad train-has created considerable
discussion, and among a large number
of people it is believed to be utterly un-
founded. In the expectation that the
hearing would proceed to-day alarge
number of persons holding high posi-
tions in the church aud others who are
eminent in literary circles were in the
court room for the purpose of testilying
to the blameless character of the ac-
cused. AS token of the estimation in
which Mr.. Fytfe is held, it may be stated
that the election committee having his
political interests in charge has adopt
ed, since the charge was made against
him, vote of confidence in him.
