THE SOCIALIST CONGRESS.
AN EXTREMIST ATTACKS THE TOADY-
ISM OF THE LEADERS.

His Tone Remarkably Moderate, and Hit
Colleagues Accuse Him of Aiming al
the Leadership of the Opposition in the
Reichstag-The Budget Report.
ERFURT, Oct. 15-At to-day's session Of
the Socialist Congress the report of the past
years work was read, and it was thereby an
nounced that satisfactory and important re-
suits had been achieved during that period.
The holding of meetings throughout Ger
many, the report said, had greatly ex-
tended the agitation the Socialists advo-
Gated. The budget showed the revenue OF
the organization to have been S55, 965 and
the expenditures S34, ,735. During the year
81 years of Imprisonment had been inflicted
upon Socialists, and fines to the amount of
81, $50 imposed on the brethren in Germany.
The pecuniary allowance granted to mem
bers of the Reichstag has been raised from
81 % to 81 80 day with an extra allowance
of SO month for lodgings.
Herr Werner, an extremist, spoke in
friendly criticism of the report. He denied
that an organized opposition had been
formed against the directing committee,
which, he said, would be confronted only
by isolated antagonists, each of whom
ances. Herr Werner also condemned the
optimism and Chauvinism which he said
was displayed by the leaders in their
speeches. Later on the speaker also con-
demned what he classed as their "toady-
ISM"
Thus he said, 'Herr Grillingberg's
paper appeared with mourning border on
the anniversary of the death of the Emperor
Frederick
AT another portion of his discourse, Herr
Werner said that, generally speaking, the
socialist members of the Reichstag failed to
hold aloft the banner of their party in the
House, adopting opportunist tactics, which
were not in accordance with the best
methods of socialism.
Speakers who followed Herr Werner
commented strongly upon his change of
tone from denunciation to moderation, and
referred to his obvious disinclination to
pose as a leader of the opposition in the
Reichstag. Herr Bebel referred TO the
public assertions made by Herr Werner
and Herr Wildberger to the effect that
member of the committee had accepted
present of 81, go in consideration of some
political service, and demanded that both
of the gentlemen named should be expelled
from the Congress unless the charge was
withdrawn. A scene of considerable nproar
followed.

Criminal and Civil Suits to Be Brought
Against the E1-Presidsnt.
NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-There was no meet
ing of the Hoey investigating committee to-
day, so Vice President Loyejoy, of the
Adams Express Company, said. Clarence
A. Seward was at the Office great part of
the day, however, and it was said that he
and the other officers of the company were
talking about the advisability of prosecuting
Hoey both criminally and civilly. Mr.. San
ford was seen in the morning, and said that
the report that Mr.. Hoey and Mr.. Spooner
had sold their stock in the company long
while ago was true.
''What state of affairs this is" he said.
''Here is the great Adams Express Com
pany, concern with capital of over S20,-
900, 900, whose business extends to every
State and Territory in the Union; whose
stockholders live in every corner of the
land, paving for some ordinary express
company stock 100000 more than it is
worth. The case will not be dropped I can
tell you"
Mr.. Hoey visited the Office of the South
ern Express Company again to-day. 1t was
said by one of his friends that he was pre-
pairing a statement of his side of the case
and would make it public in few days.

ASSISTANCE FROM CANADA
Asked for by Wanamaker to Circumvent
the Lottery Agents There.

ASKED "dudnaker TO S1rCumTent
the Lottery Agents There.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-In a letter ad-
dressed to the Postmaster General of Canada,
Postmaster General Wanamaker saws the
Louisiana Lottery Company has established
an agency at Toronto and is flooding the
United States mails with its circulars in
sealed envelopes from that point. As the
act of mailing, constituting the offense, does
not occur within our jurisdiction, the Post
master General says the penal clause of the
law cannot apply.
As all lottery tickets and lottery circulars
are held by the Treasury Department to be
liable to customs duties, postmasters at all
United States exchange Offices have been in
structed to place upon mail matter which
they believe to contain dutiable articles the
words, supposed liable to customs duty"
AT the office of destination such matter is
opened by the addressee in presence of the
customs officer, and if found to contain lot
terry matter is forfeited to the United States.
Postmaster General Wanamaker has asked
the Canadian Postmaster General if it would
be proper to instruct the postmaster at
Toronto to so stamp letters mailed there by
the agent of the lottery company. Ii that
course is pursued the postmasters at United
States exchange offices, he says, will make a
similar Endorsement on behalf of this
country.

Speaking of the State favorites for the
Presidential nomination, Mr.. Viewer said
that he thought Hill had no chance what
ever of getting the Democratic nomination
for the Presidency; that his stock had gene
down greatly of late. Still, he said, Hill
might be able to prevent Cleveland getting

Office within few weeks after President
Harrison was inaugurated, and some months
later he incurred official disfavor by accept
ing the leadership of the young and am
bilious men of his race who are in revolt
against Fred Douglass, ex-Minister to
Haiti, and B. K. Bruce, Recorder of Deeds.
The colored men here say that President
Harrison has set these men up as high
priests of their race, and Mr.. Townsend is
not in their favor. He has been too out
spoken in behalf of the men of his color,
and the black triumvirate they say has set
its seal of condemnation upon him. He is
held responsible for the revolt of the col
ored voters of Indiana against the Repub-
ican party, although he denies that he is
guilty.

There Will Probably Be Three Judicial

BEDFORD, Oct. 15.-[Specid. THE Judi
cial Conference, after another stubborn day
of balloting without coming to any under
standing, adjourned to meet tomorrow.
The votes stand as before-Kooser, 8; Long
necker. 3. Heretofore it had been the Gus
tom of this parody on conferences to hold
weekly exhibitions, alternating between
Bedford and Somerset. 1t is now under
stood the Longnecker conferees will oppose
any adjournment until the nomination is de-
cided, on the ground that the election is but
little better than two weeks off and too
much time is consumed in going from place
to place.
Both candidates are still determined, and
Republicans, sickened by the long-drawn-
out fight, say there will be no nomination,
and there will be three candidates in the
field instead of two.

hardly know him for the same person that
passed through Boston in June last. He
eats well, sleeps we'll and his mind is as

fited by similar shock No." said Mr..

months in the West, says:
II know personally that there are tin

the tin company, and when I was there
they were going to put up smelling works.
The tin occurs both native and in the unartz,
and can be picked out of some of the de-

deeper they go into the hill the richer the
yield, at least so they tell me. The COM
