A VERY SMALL ACT.
Born and Lazarus Have Third Baseman
Reilly Expelled From the Elks,

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,l
COLUMBUS, o., June n-Charlcy Reilly, the
third baseman, who jumped his contract
with Columbus and who is now playing with
the Pittsburg club, was expelled from the
order of Ell1s last night. An effort has been
made by the few friends of Reilly in this
city to keep the matter quiet hoping the
action against him instituted some days ago
in the Columbus Lodge of Elks would be
dropped. Lazarus and Born, of the Colum-
bus Baseball Club Company, are members of
the Elks, being prominent and influential in
the local lodge. One of the cardinal princi-
pies of the order is the mutual protection of
Its members.
The conduct of Reilly, of course was in
| jury to the Columbus Baseball Club, as 1t
placed the directors in very embarrassing
| position. They had depended upon having
the services of Reilly, and were, therefore,
| not prepared for the change necessitated by
| his failure to keep his word In pursuance
ofthe objects of the order, the violation of
the contract by Reilly, who was also an Elk,
was taken up by the Columbus lodge of Elks
This was more than a week ago. The ques-
tion came up for consideration last Saturday
night, and was referred to a special COM
| mittee appointed to investigate the charges.
The Elks held another meeting last night,
at which time the investigating committee
recommended the unconditional expulsion
OF Reilly. The report was adopted, and the
Secretary instructed to notify Reilly he was
| no longer a member of the Elks. The Elks
according to the rules of the order, notified
Reilly OF the appointment of the commission
to investigate the case. As soon as he re-
ceived the notification, which was yester-
day, he telegraphed Mayor Karb, who is an
Elk, in the hope that he might prevent the
consummation of the plan to expel him. In
this telegram, which the Mayor received last
night, Reilly stated he would prefer to re-
turn and play with Columbus than be fired
from the Elks. The Mayor had no authority
to act in the matter, however. Anything he
might have done would not stop the action
of the Elks. The injury had already been
done to the Columbus club and nothing that
Reilly could do would repair it. The tele-
gram, therefore availed him nothing, and
the only reply to it will be the announce
ment of his expulsion.

ONE HEBREWS STORY.
THE CONSUL GENERAL FOR BELGIUM
ONE OF THE VICTIMS,

His Official Pass Indorsed by Rider Stat
ing His Race and That He Was Under
Police Surveillance-A Bold Attempt to
Blackmail Him.
BERLIN, June 11-A press correspond
ent met Herr Goldberger, the well-known
Hebrew financier, Director of the Interns-
tional Bank of this city, a member of one
of the most aristocratic clubs and Consul
General for Belgium, in this city, who was
recently expelled from Russia, apparently
In most unwarranted manner. Herr
Goldberger was very reluctant to talk about
his experiences in Russia, as he is averse to
notoriety, and says that he thinks that the
insults he suffered were the work of some
individual "Pristaw," and not of the Rus
sian Government directly.
Herr Goldberger, after leaving this city,
went first to st. Petersburg, and from there
to Moscow, in the interest of the banking
house with which he is connected, having
been furnished with special consular pass
by the Russian Consul General here, which
permitted him to stay two months in Russia.
The police at st. Petersburg affixed a white
slip to his pass, upon which slip were in
scribed the words: 1.-THE Hebrew Gold
berger is here on toleration and under police
supervision" Herr Goldberger, who does
not understand Russian, thought the above
was some regular police paper. He learned
differently when he reached Moscow.
The 'Pristaw" called upon him at his
hotel the second day and told him he must
leave at once. The hotel manager said that
he should give the "Pristaw" few roubles
and all would be right, but the banker re-
fused to pay blackmail and left at once.
Consul General Goldberger says that none
of tie acts so far published about the per-
secution ofthe Hebrews tells the whole story.
The misery and persecution, he adds, is simply
indescribable. "Nobody knows whose turn is
to come next, he said, "and no one cares to
risk his money or work under the present state
of barbaric rage against everything foreign
or nOn-orthodox, and the consequence will
be that Russia, with all her immense agri-
cultural and mineral resources, will, sooner
or latter, be forced into condition, of alb
solute bankruptcy"

A COUNTER MANIFESTO.
Redmond and OConnor Reply to President
Emmett of the Irish Federation

Redmond and OConnor Reply to President
Emmet, of the Irish Federation.
. CHICAGO, June II. - The address tele-
graphed from New York, in which DIR.
Thomas Adds Emmet, President of the
National Federation of America, pro-
nounced Mr.. Parnell unworthy of further
trust, caused William Redmond and John
O'Connor, the Irish members of Parliament
representing Parnell in the United States,
to be besieged to-day by anxious callers at
the Grand Pacific Hotel. This evening
Messrs Redmond and O'Connor gave out
their answer.
1t says: 'The document referred to
abounds in assertions which will not stand
the test of applied facts. 1t is founded
on falsehood, and plain tale will
refute it" Messrs. Redmond and
O'Conhor then proceeded to analyze
the Federation circular, and lay the
blame for the rupture in the Irish party
upon the interference of Gladstone. They
add: 1t is not true that Mr.. Parnell stands
in the way of unity. He has twice
offered to resign providing the party
will get from the Liberals an assurance
that, in their next measure of home rule,
they will introduce such provisions as will
be satisfactory to the majority of the Irish
representatives. Twice his opponents ac-
cepted his offer and sought the required
guarantees, and twice they failed to secure
Them"

Insane Asylum scandal occupied the atten-
ton of the House for long time this
morning. The special committee which
has been investigating charges of cruelty
and Encouragement against the officials of
that institution made majority and
a minority report yesterday after

special order to-day. The majority
report, signed by the Democratic members,
found the Superintendent and his assist
ants guilty Of extreme and repeated cruelty
to inmates, and of other misdemeanors and
Irregularities of serious nature. The
minority report, signed by the Republi-
cans, was quite the reverse in its conclu-
sions, and reported that the institution had
been well managed, and that the charges
and testimony were Of personal and ma
licious character unsupported by evidence.
The majority report recommended the
dismissal of a number of attendants The
vote on motion to adopt the majority re-
port resulted in its defeat by majority of
one, three farmers and one Democrat
voting with the Republicans against it.
The two reports were then received and
placed on file

FREE COINAGE COMMITTEE.
1t VIII Meet on the 18th Inst. and Stand
Steadily Against Compromise.

Steadily Against Compromise.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE meeting Of
the Free Coinage Silver Committee, which
was to have been held in Washington on
the 18th inst, will take place on the same
date at the Hoffman House, in New York,
instead The proposition for compromise
on the products of American mines is not
regarded favorably by the committee. Sen
ator Stewart said to-day that he was con-
fident that free coinage bill could be
passed through the next Congress over the
Presidents veto.
The Republican votes in the Senate Mr..
Stewart counts on as sure for free coinage
are: Two from California, from Oregon, 2
from Washington, 2 from Idaho, 2 from
Montana, from Nevada, from Colorado,
1 from Wyoming, 2 from South Dakota, 1
from North Dakota. from Kansas, from
Nebraska and from Pennsylvania. Cullom,
Stockbridge and Davis he regards as doubt
tul. The votes counted as sure would give
free coinage 60 votes if the Democrats voted
solid for free coinage. Fifty-nine votes are
enough to carry the bill over the veto.

THE VINEYARDS OF FRANCE.
American Grape Vines Said to Yield the
Largest Product.

Largest Product.
PARIS, June 1.-THE tariff debates in
the Chambers have brought to the fore
again the question of the phyllo1era and
American vines, which, 1t is again admitted,
are an important agent for the restitution
of the vineyards A correspondent having
asked the opinions of eminent specialists
concerning the condition of the vine-grow-
ing regions, received numerous replies, all
of v hich confirm this statement. Pasteur
says: 81 have often heard our wine growers
praise the American vines" Senator Mein-
adler says: ''My department, the Gard, was
the first invaded by the phylloxera- We
had SO, 900 hectares of vineyards of which
only one-eighth escaped. To-day we have
about 1000 hectares treated by submission,
about 1000 by insecticides and nearly 80,
600 planted with American vines"
DR.. Menudier, Vice President of one of
the departmental committees, says: "Since
1889, the territory in the department of the
lower Charente, covered with American
vines, has nearly doubled" In the depart
ment of which Marseilles is the Capital, the
region planted with American vines equals
that planted with French vines. A profes-
sor Of agriculture in the Department Of Puy-
de-Dome writes: 'French vines grated on
American stocks yield wine, as good as, if
not better, than that given by the ungrafted
French species"

BERLIN, June lin the Lower House
of the Diet to-day Herr Rickert moved that
the Government submit to the House the
material upon which Chancellor Won Cap
rivi based hisrecent speech on the grain
duties. The Chancellor opposed this
motion, declaring that the inquiries had
been in progress since April, but had been
confined to official quarters in order
to avoid creating excitement. The
Government, he continued, was convinced
that there was no distress existing
from the duties now levied on grain; but in
consequence of the agitation which had
been aroused in regard to this matter, the
Government had since consulted number
of private parties, and, naturally, could not
submit these reports to the House.
Herr Rickert made a most sensational
speech, during which, he said, that it
wound be found necessary to recall the
man who alone was able to direct the Gov
ernment."

titled better than the Balmaceda Govern
ment to be considered a perfectly legal body.
