BREAD OR BLOOD"
PitiabIe Condition OF the Poor Peop of
Germany.

BERLIN, Aug. ia report that the
government had determined to reduce
corn duties was received with rejoicing
on Sunday, especially in the manufac tur-
ing districts. Itprovcd to be premature
and the reaction among the poor was
heart rending. Devices have been seized
by the police at Chcmnitz with the
legend ''Bread or Blood" and evidently
intended to be used in a procession.
The devices were destsoyed.
The corn market today was in an ex-
cited condition. The opening quotations
were: August rye, 2G9 marks; Septem-
Der and October 253 marks. August
wheat was quoted at 254 marks, and
September and October 24G. 1t is be-
l!evcd that the Russian ukase prohibit.
ing the expectation of rye will be res
cinded in October. The st. Petersburg
journal states that the Gar held cut for
long time against the advice that the
decree be issued.
1t is reported that tho German goy-
ernment will reduce the income tax on
certain classes in order 10 mitigate the
effects of tho stoppage of rye exports
from Russia.

President Polk interviewed.

WASlllNGToN, Aug. l7.--Col Polk,
president OF the National Alliance, in
an interview today, sad that his fol.
lowers were not seeking to elect gov.
ernor or states; they were striking fol
the monopolists in the United States
Senate. lie said they had landed three
Hampton, Ingalls, and Gideon Moody
OF south Dakota, and the next ores t(
90 would be John Sherman and Arthur
l.. German.
lie dcplored the election Of Vance
VINO had slipped in again by making
lalr promises TO the farmers, and Gen.
Gordon, who had shown himself to be
lar more interested in his personal sue
cess than that Of the Alliance. lie de-
clared that Shcrman'S defeat was GER
tam, and that Mat Ransom. Morgan,
lugh and others would be caught by
me Alliance reaper by and by.
lie further stated that the order was
100 weak in Iowa and Pennsylvania TO
pegln active work, and SO no effort
would be expended in these states just
now, but he thought by the time Cam
eroh turn came round they would be
prepared to give him Il decent funeral.

30 Careful with Your Cotton

MessrS. Alexander Sprunt & Son, of
Wilmington, n. g., recently issued a
circular to the farmers of the South
which contains some valuable sugges-
tiOnS in reference to cotton. In this
circular they say that accumulation of
low grade cotton has overstOcked the
markets OF the world, and this surplus
will probably have to be sacrificed at
extremely low prices. On the other
hand, the supply Of good cotton is quite
limited, and there is always a market
for the better goods. 1t is therefore a
matter of the utmost Importance to
our friends, the planters, that extraor-
dlnary care be taken to pick the cotton
only when it is perfectly dry, avoiding
stained and sandy cotton, which should
be most carefully kept separate from
the better qualities. Then exercise care
in setting the gin saws, SO as to avoid
cutting the staple, and when packed,
see that no gin fails. inferior cotton,
sand nor water is permitted in the bal
ing. This preparation will insure a
ready sale at the best current prices,
while the neglect of these precautions
will probably cause a loss of from five
to ten dollars bale to the farmer upon
every bale he produces. Hitherto many
of our planters could afford to take the
easier course and gin good, bad and in
dl liferent cotton together, but as the in
dlcations point to ruinons prices for
medium and inferior grades next
season. it behOOVes every cotton pro-
ducer to exercise the utmost care in
his crop for market.

full change in the topography and ap.

IeprOSy In New Orleans,

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 16.-A death

Whlte woman named Mrs. Mary Bolt
Hhc was brought to the charity hospital
IN June last, before the nature Of her
disease was discovered. AS soon as it
was found she was leper the woman
was sent to the hospital for infectious
diseases. The physicians who treated
Ihe case say She must have had the
disease for. many years, as her body
was entirely covered with sores and
lhat peculiar white scale characteristic
ol the disease. At the hospital she con-
.lnllGd TO grow worse and finally died a
painless death.
Dr: Beard, phA Asician in charge of the
hoSpltal, says there are half a dozen
cases OF leprosy in the city, several of
severe and advanced character, and,
inrther, that the city authorities have
taken no steps to separate them from
persons to whom they might commu-
nlcate the disease.

A Fast Express Crashes Into an Excur-
sons Killed and FIFTY or More Injured.
BERNE, Aug. 17.-A terrible accl-
dent, resulting in the instant death OF
twelve persons and the serious injury OF
many others, some Of whom will prob
ably die, occurred today on the Jura-
Simpl0n Railroad, near this city. A
special excursion train, which was con-
veying hundreds Of villagers from the
surrounding country to witness the
fctes III connection with the seventh an
nlvcrsary of the foundation Of the city Of
Bcrnc, was stopped at a siding short
distance from its destination in order to
allow the regular Paris express to pass.
The engineer of the express as nearly as
notified of the fact that the excursion
train was on the track ahead Of him, and
the conductor Of the excursion train
seems to have neglected to send sig
nal man back to protect the rear of his
train while the shlnt was arranged.
The express running at high speed,
came upon the excursion tram so sud-
denly that the engineers efforts to check
It's speed and avert disaster were un-
raaiing. The heavy express dashed
inlo the rear Of the excursion train, de-
molishing the guards van, which was
empty and forcing its way through tn c
rear coach. The passengers in this
coach were nearly all killed or injured.
The trainmcn, assisted BY the passcn-
gers who had escaped injury, set to
work immediately to rescue the unfor-
tunatcs who were imprisoned in the
wreck. lleartrcnding cries Of agony

ANTICS OF AN EMPEROR.
A Singular Story OF the German En,.r
or's Conduct.


PARIS, Aug. 16.-The Paris Ecla,r
which is not given to sensatiOnalisn
prints the following story as confirmed
by unquestioned authority:
On the night following the departnre
OF the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern from
England the crew was beaten to quar-
ters and was surprised to find the quar-
ter-deck brilliantly illuminated. An
altar had been erected on the deck bear.
ing the Old and New Testaments. and
The Kaiser stood by wearing q white
chasuble with q crozier in his hand and
black and white mitre on his head.
lie read the most warlike passages from
the Testaments and invited The crew
tp re'pond. lie then preached a long
sermon on the dIty ofsovereigns to their
people, the whole service lasting from
ii p. m. to 2 u. m. The crew was then
piped below.
AT . a. m. the Kaiser appeared on
the bridge in the uniform OF u high adj.
mlral, looking extremely ha.gard, and
addressing the commander said: s'Sir.
retire to your cabin, l shall take charge -
The commander replied: "SIr, permit
me TO observe that we are in danger
GUS passage and that it ls advisable for
your Majestv's safety rs we'll as for that
OF the crew that sailor remain in COM
mand."
The Emperor responded. Never
mind, God will inspire me.'
The commander bowed and retired.
The second officer remaining, the EN-
peror angrily bade him retire. The Of
ficer respectfully protesting, the En-
peror then said: You resist, wretched
creature. You trouble the spirit of God
wnich is in ME. This ls the vengeance
OF God upon you," dealing the officer a
heavy blow on the cheek.
The officer turned crimson, but re-
mained until the Emperor seized him
ny the throat and tried to throw him
overheard. In the struggle that followed
the Emperor fell and broke his knee
cap.
The sailors watched the scene par-
alYzed with fear. The occurrence was
one that cannot be forgotten. The En-
peror howled with pain. His eyes start
ell from their sockets. ue foamed at
the mouth. He swore terribly, and in
tact displayed all the symptoms of mad
ness.
The officers, after brief consultation,
| carried him into the cabin padded with
mattresses. Nobody was permitted to
enter except the doctor and the En-
press. Men were necessary to help to
restrain him until his leg was bandaged
and straightforward was put on him.
| The crisis lasted three days.

VICTORIA, y. g., Aug. u.-The Can.

Just returned to Vancouver from Beh-
ring Sea, where she was seized by the
American cutter Rush, ordered to st.
PaulS Island and then released and
sent home. Capt. Alcer is full Of bit
ternesS over his seizure as ne declares
there was not an illicit seal on his YES.
sci. While at st. Paul's Island he de-
clares he saw thousands Of seals-more
than he ever saw before. lie says that
for three miles there is Il fine sandy
beach, from so to $50 yards deep. On
this beach was Il sight to fill a sealer
with longing. 81 have seen Il field of
ice on the Atlantic, Off which was taken
24O,OOO seals, and another time | saw
2oO,OOO taken Off about six acres, but
they were not one-eighth so plentiful
there as were the fur seals on St. pauls
Island, while the water all around was
actually alive with them. Look where
you would, it was moving with seals.
AS far as we could see was covered with
them. There is one thing, however.
that Will affect the seals, and that is the
fearful state of the air-so many seals
slaughtered and their dead bodies left
to rot has so tainted the air that one
can scarcely breathe. You can smell
the fetid odor miles away from the
island. There is no doubt that the
smell of the rOtton flesh does more in
jury to the seals than all the sealers
that go to bring seals"
