EXPELLED FROM BERLIN.


BnR,ls. Nov. iG.--Mr. Melzcr. the cor
respondent of the New York Herald in ller-'
lin, is reported TO have been expelled from
Germany on the charge of publishing sen
sational stories alleged to have been sup
piled by a notorious suspected police agent.
Norman Schumann, alias Walgrenc. Mel
ger received notice recently that he iu-
Cured the risk of expulsion by his state
ments.
He offended the government by alleging
that the Berlin authorities were negotiating
for the assistance of the Vatican In procur-
ing the passage of the military bill by the
Reichstag, and he has since given greater
offence by an article intimating that the
military bill was u sign of approaching war.
Later reports say that the correspondent
of the International Telegram Company Is
authorized by the foreign office here to
state that Mr.. Melzer, Berlin cofrespon-
dent of the Herald has not been expelled
from the country. He has been merely
cautioned to stop maligning Germany and
incorporating her officials AMI the cono-
trys interests generally in his corrcspon-
dence. American newspaper correspOn-
dents, without exception, who report facts,
and do not allow themselves to be biased
in their reports by political schemes, the
foreign office says, are assured of every
privilege.

ROYAL WANTS HIS FEE.
A Hitch IN Issuing the New Virginia
Bonds.

RICuMoNp. Va, Nov. l6.-The cause at
the DELAY in issuing the new Virginia bonds
under the terms of the settlement of the
state debt agreed upon between the oicott
committee and the representatives OF this
commonwealth has probably been misun-
derstood in some quarters.
This delay has been occasioned by de-
tachment sued out against the s2i ,on,ooo
of old bonds sent here by the Olcott com
m,ttee for exchange. The suitor Is w. J..
Royall. who acted as counsel for the for
eieu CORPORATION of bondholders and who
claims that a big fee is now due him by the
corporation. NJ,
now in New York to confer with members
of the Olco,t committee. The result of
This visit. it is believed, viii be that the
parties interested will furnish IN indemni-
fvino bond for the amount of Mr.. Royal :
claim. aud the new bonds will shortly be
issued.
The commonwealth has had no RESPONSE
b;l;,v for the interference in the consnm-
nation of the settlement of the debt. Her
representatives have been ready at any
time to issue the manuscript bonds AS soon
az the outstanding debt was turned IN to
tbem As soon as this is done, which moth
;pe, now stands in the way of but the Roy
ali attachments. tie whole matter VIII he

GREAT CARE
Is to be Taken With Steerage
Immigrants,
From Whom Most Danger Of Cholera
Infection on Vessels Exists.
The Government Issuing Strict Orders 10 All
Ports Of Entry officers.

WAsHixoro>. Nov. ie.-Acting Secre-
tary Spaakiing today issued circular to
the customs officers in regard TO the entry
of vessels carrying immigrants. The de-
partment has received authentic assurance
that danger of cholera infection still exists,
and measures of precaution heretofore OBJ
served cannot be materially relaxed without
imperilling public safety.
In the order of its provisions circular
70. $50 of Sept. L. 1892, shall be uni
formly applied. and officers having super
vision over the arrival of vessels are in
structed as follows:
lst-The department sdheres to the CON
struc,ion of the term ''immigrant" as used
in circular $50, and hold that any person
who arrives from his home in foreign
county with the intention of making perma-
nent settlement here, is an immigrant with
in the terms of said circular
2.--Experience has demonstrated that
the principal danger of infection through
immigration arises from passengers brought,
over in the steerage. The crowding Of
immigrants to the extreme limits of steer
age accommodations of many ships, the
considerable quantity and character of their
baggage and personal effects and
consequent difficulty in maintaining those
conditions of cleanliness and ventilation de-
manded by the sanitary laws, are among
the causes which create special danger of
infection from the class of immigrants re-
ferred to.
These perils do not arise from
the transportation of passengers in the
cabin and the department finds no occa-
sion to interfere with the landing
of the latter after they pass the inspection
of the local health authorities.
3.-Obieetions to the unrestricted admis-
sion of steerage immigrants do not apply TO
vessels in which the steerage is occupied BY
a limited number of citizens and residents
Of the United States and families, likely to
avail themselves of cheaper fares afforded
by steerage tickets, in returning to this
country.
4.-No vessel bringing foreign immi-
grants in the steerage, shall be relieved
from the restrictions contained in circular
No. $50. Vessels bringing no such steer
age passengers, but having immigrants on
board as cabin passengers are not TO be re-
fused entry, after having passed the local
quarantine, but will be subject to the regu-
lation contained in the instructions ad-
dressed to the commissioner of immigra-
ton ON September 2ith last.
This circular, as far as it modities any
instructions previously issued, will be ap-
piled to all vessels sailing from foreign
ports on and after this date.

= BOLD cousreRfeIIERs,
Two Men Arrested Who Intended 10 Flood Gu.
ba With Bogus Notes.

NEW YoRK, Nov. l6--Two men, Man
uel Rodriguez. Spaniard, 10 years old,
aud Thomas Z. Parr, English, 80 years OF
age. were arraigned at the Tombs police
court charged with attempting counterfeit
ing.
The police had been on their trail since
Monday last, when they learned at u West
street cigar store that two suspicious look :
ing persons had been making inquiries
about engraving. Detectives Sargent,
O'Brien and TAYLOR of the central office ar
rested them at the Putnam House, on Fourth
avenue, on last Friday night. Inspector
Mclaughlin had long interview with Parr
which revealed the purpose for which they
were working.
Parr saws he was a fancy cake baker in
Havana. He left there three weeks ago on
the Ward line steamer Seneca for Ne"
York. While on the way he became ac-
quainted with Rodriguez, who told him OF
his plans Offering him considerable money
to act as interpreter. He says the Spaniard
belongs to a large gang who have been plan
ming to float tremendous quantity OF bo-
gus notes in Cuba and the West Indies,
and as many as possible in this country.
Rodriguez intended to have plate made
here and return with it to Havana. On his
person the police found the following tele-
gram written in Spanish, directed to Jose
T.. Gonzales Send me $500 by American
cable to Putnam House, Fourth avenue
(Signed) Manuel Rodriguez"
The men were held in $2J00 bonds each
for examination next Friday. The police
regard it as a most important capture.

CAPT. MeEkER'S SENTENCE.


WAsuISGroS, Nov. l6.--The findings of
the court-martlal in the case of Capt. Il. +.
Meeker of the Marine Corps have reached
the Navy Department. Capt. Mecker was
charged with neglect of duty while in charge
of the marine guard of the cruiser Chicago
during her recent cruise in South American
waters. At Laguayra four of his men oh
tanned some liquor and got intoxicated.
Capt Mpekcr was held responsible for
their conduct, was court-martialed, found
guilty of neglect of duty and sentenced by
Admiral Walker to suspension from duty
for one year on half pay.
Admiral Walker first caused Capt. Meek
er to be publicly rcprimanded on the quar-
ter deck and then court martaled. When
the court met Capt Mceker pleaded AS bar
TO the proceedings that he had already been
punished by reprimand. The court decided
that the captains plea in bar was good, but
Admiral Walker directed the court to pro-
ceed regardless of the plea, and did so,
finding the captain guilty as charged.
The navy department can do nothing un-
less Capt Meeker appeals from the decis-
ion of the conrt. Should he do so, the au.
thorities will have the interesting question
to decide whether or not an officer can be
punished twice for the same offence.

PROF. SMITHS TRIAL.
Ms Heart Nay Be Right, But Not in Unison
With Mis- Head

CfsciNs MI, Nov. l6.-'Fhe trial of Prof.
Smith before the Cincinnati Presbytery was
| resumed today. The prosecution began
with DIR. Mekibben as the first speaker.
He began by saving that two things are to
be settled. First, the sufficieney of the
| specifications TO sustain the charges and
| secondly, did the charges constitute an
offence. lie held that to teach that min
lister NAV abandon the essential features of
doctrine and still rightfully maintain his
position in the ministry was an offence.
We are not Armenians, said he, nor free
agents we are Calvinists. One of the es-
sential features of the system of Calyinism
is the authority of the word of God. Its
doctrines are inculcated because they are
found in Gods word If this Presbytery is
called upon to put an end TO the Presby-
terian church there could be no better way
10 do than to teach the doctrine which the
charges ascribe TO Prof Smith
Toteach that. all that is required of the
minister is to be in accord with the doctrines
of the church when he enters the ministry,
and then be permitted to vary his belief
afterward, but still retain his position as
minister, is assuredly an otfense. Even
the installation vow was contract TO teach
the essential doctrines of the church.
Coming to the second charge, he said the
committee believed in the errancy of the
Bible and that ii is absolutely true when we
| understand what it means. Inspiration
meant infalhbility, or 1t is not inspiration,
and we want to stand where the Son of God
stood and say Every word which pro-
ceedeth out of the mouth of God is true"
That is inspiration, nothing else is true.
The committee believes Prof. Smith does
not teach any inspiration at all.
DIR. Mckibben speaking of Prof. Smith
said II believe his heart is right. My
hope is that his head and heart may be
brought in unison"
At the afternoon session Rev. ID. Mckib-
ben continued his argument and made nu-
merous citations from the Bible, not made
in the committees charges. To this Prof.
Smith objected as it was introducing matter
to which his attention had not been called
by the prosecution. The moderator over
ruled the objection.
Prof. Smith appealed from the decision.
Thirty eight voted to sustain the moderator,
- against sustaining, and II declined to
vote Friends of Prof. Smith claim that
this vote showed great feeling in his behalf.
Later the professor objected to the intro
duction of extracts from the writings of
Rev. Charles Hodge. DIR. II. 7. smith and
others.
Prof. Smith claimed that these writings
were not upon the question of the commit
tees views of what the confession of faith
requires, but upon the subject of inspira-
ton. DR.. Towle, from the prosecuting
committee, argued for the purposes of IL
lustration that this matter might be properly
used The moderator overruled the objec-
ton and again the professors appeal was
was lost, though without a division. The
Pres esbytery voted to hold no session Friday

HAITIAN ExIleS ACTIVE.
Getting Ready to Strike At the Government Of

New YORK. Nov. l6.-The Adirondack
Of the Atlas Line has arrived in tins port
from the Haitian ports and Jamaica. She
had official dispatches from President Hip
polytc to the Haitian consulate in this city :,
believed to refer to the threatened revolu-
ton.
There are 1000 or more Haitian political
exiles in Kingston and for several months
they have been unusually active, Under
the direction of their leader, Gen Marrigat,
they are getting ready to attack the present
government of Haiti.
Among the exilcs are Gen. Prophetic and
Gen. Legitime, who are aspIrants To the
Presidency. Gen, Marrigat, is, however,
the favorite tor he has supported the poorer
members of the exile colony the past two
years. and they will be his devoted follow
ers when the time arrives. He also has
many followers among the government oili-
cials in northern IIayti, who will aid with
money. Marrigat is the moneyed man OF
the insurgents.
IIaytians are complaining of the mercen'
ary demands of the government. Every
official from Hippolyte down to the hum
blest follower has to be "seen." The re-
suits of all these demands is a growing dis
content and desire to overthrow the dicta-
tor. Everyone who secures a. government
position grows wealthy very rapidly.
