or;te a Change.

BERLIN, March 1.-The riots have had
the effect Of bringing the municipal
authorities to sense of the necessity of
giving work to the unemployed. When
approached by committee of unein-
ployed masons, before the riots, Burgo-
master Forckenbeck refused to even see
them. Under BurgomastarL Seele, who
did receive them, declared that the
municipality could not provide them
with employment. He referred them to
Herr Blankenstein, superintendent !
public works, who gave them no sub
stantial encouragement.
On Sunday Burgomaster Forckenbeck
received message from the kaiser.
Its purport is not known, but Monday
when the burgomaster was again visited
by body of unemployed workingmen,
he had manifestly undergone a change
of heart. The workingmen, all of them
honest-looking tradesmen, assembled in
an orderly manner and in considerable
numbers to place their condition re-
spectfully before Burgomaster Forcken-
beck. There was not the slightest 90
pearance of any disposition to riot or
disorder. They marched quietly to the
burgomaster's office. That official re-
ceived them graciously. He asked them
to state their case.
The spokesman did in their behalf.
They had their families, were destitute,
he said, owing to the cessation of public
and private enterprises which had given
them work. They now respectfully
asked that public works be undertaken
and proceeded with and that the gov
ernment pay wages to live en-. Burgo-
master Forckenbeck replied that be
would see that they were provided with
employment. The workingmen then
retired in as quiet and orderly manner
as they had come. There was no dis
t1rbance of the peace Monday or Mon
day evening.

BERLIN, Feb. 2T.--The tumult in the
streets continued up to a late hour FRI
day, and as q result the authorities are
in state of extreme alarm. The social
lists have discovered an unexpected
strength in their ranks, and feel that
they have the sympathy Of the people.
+ Numerous conflicts between the peo-
pie and the police occurred in which
many heads were broken and many ar
rests made.

1t was noticed throughout the demon
stration that the sympathy of the inn
mense crowd of people, rich and poor,
who witnessed the workingmen's DEM
onstration, was, beyond doubt, with
the rioters. They were cheered repeat
edly by groups of well dressed people
belonging to the upper and middle
classes, and were frowned upon only by
those moving in government or military
circles.

Ha LonEsd ON and Smiled.

The emperor watched the rioting from
the windows of an apartment in the
first story of the castle. 1t is now added
that he smiled. though his face was
deadly pale, when he saw the people
beaten down beneath the swords Of the
military police. Everything that it is
possible to bring up against the en-
peror is consequently now being recited
and revamped, FURNISHED up and re-
painted in more glowing colors by the
socialists, who are most bitter against
the emperor, and people say that il he
imagines himself equal to the Deity
time will show that he has made very
great mistake in SO imagining.

Friday afternoon mob of about /. .OO0
men attempted another demonstration at
the castle gates but were repulsed by
ths police without much difficulty. A
few arrests were made. a,
After the attempted demonstration the
emperor, accompanied by asingie aide
de-camp and preceded by but two
mounted policemen, left the palace on
horseback, passed lsisurely through
Unter den Linden around There garden
and returned to the palace, all the while
conversing unconcernedly with his COM
panion. He was loudly cheered in some
places and hissed and denounced in
others as he passed along.
Different Views.
Papers differ in commencing on the
affair.
The government organs belittle the
whole matter and declare it was little
more than drunken disturbance.
The middle class papers discuss the
case gravely and say the "reds" deserve
lesson and that the authorities can be
relied upon to give it.
The religious papers view the matter
with horror, and intimate that the coun-
try is going to ruin; and that the throne
is in danger.
The boldest of the papers read by the
masses take an entirely different view of
the affair. They openly denounce the
authorities for their brutality, upbraid
the government for paying more atten-
ton to preparations for war than to pro-
noting the interests of the people of
Germany, and frankly predict that a
long struggle between the emperor and
the people has commenced, and that in
the end vicory must rest with the peo-
pie.
They announce that the country is
heartily tired of hearing the tread Of
well-fed, armed men, where hosts of
starving unemployed worlunen are gath
cred, and claim that the government of
the people and for the people would
brush away the expense Of these useless
armed hosts and restore to Europe the
peace and prosperity which the large
majority so long desire.

The authorities claim to be in posses
sion Of information that it was the in.
tention of the rioters to start numerous
fires throughout the city and during the
confusion dynamite the emperor's castle.

A. 3. LEcARPENTIER DEAD.
The Well-lsnown Rockiand Miller Dies
After An Operation.

A. B. LeCarpentier, about 35 years old,
the well-known Rockland miller, died at
z o'clock last evening after a prolonged
Illness He was unmarried.
For a long time Mr.. LeCarpentier has
been suffering from inflammation of
the peritoneum and appendix. He was
attended by DR.. Chandler, Of Centreville,
but the malady baffled the physician S
skill
On Tuesday Professor Barton Of the
jefferson Medical college, Philadelphia,
went to ROckland and, assisted by DR..
Chandler, performed delicate operation
removing stone as large as
hazelnut. 1t seemed for the
time to relieve the patient, but the re-
action set in yesterday at noon. He be-
gan to vomit violently and sank rapidly
under the strain.
The deceased was a son of Charles Lee
Carpenter, who was for many years
chemist in the powder works Of E. l.
Dupont de Nemours and Company AL.
fred d. LeCarpentier, one of DuPont'r
clerks, is brother Of tho dead miller.
The remains will be interre din the

pentier was so widely and so favorably
known that his funeral will doubtless be
largely attended.

doubt that was an oversight. The
Herald says:
AT the centennial exhibition sixteen
years ago people were pushed about on
rolling chairs and shown the queer little
toy called a telephone and told about the
curious light which man named Brush
intended to exhibit If he could get IL
ready in time. At the Worlds fair next
year some Of the same people will ride
about in electric carriages and won't
even look at the electric lights and tele-
phones. All in seventeen years.
Some people may deny that these great
advances and improvements are the re-
suits Of the protection scheme but they
are free traders with British gold in
their pockets who are disloyal to Harri.
son and who wish to destroy the valua-
bic industries Of she country which have
to be supported by public taxation. All
loyal people who are guided by loyalty
rather than by sense and reason know
that the telephone and the electric light
came as the result of protection TO Amer
lean industry; they could not have come
here otherwise.

nor shall any nominations for political
purposes be made.
With Lemon, Dudley, Raum, Tanner
and many others of the same sort at the
head Of the organization it is difficult for
defender to maintain that any Of those
precepts have been kept In spite how.
ever. Of the use the politicians have
made of the Grand Army in spite Of the
mercenary hot haste for pensions and
pension commissions which has gathered
700. 600 pensioners and invited a
lot Of spectators in pensions, the
like Of which was never dreamed
Of by Grant and Garfield, the members
of the Grand Army still preserve a feel
ing Of genuine comradeship among them
selves from the common sympathy Of
those who risked their lives in patriot
ic cause. But that would not be sufIi-
cient to hold the order together without
the sympathy Of the people.
There is a sincere and conspicuous en-
thusiasm for the limping and feeble vet
Grams among the people. They are
always greeted with cheers and treated
with respect This sentiment does
not weaken with the lapse Of time, but
shows itself at all the successive annual
encampments and will show itself conspic-
uously, genuinely and gloriously at the
eneampment in Washington on the nine.
teenth of this month.
In view Of these facts, IL seems that
the Grand Army should do something to
mitigate the scandals Of pension seeking
by unworthy men and Of the pension de-
partment under Tanner and Raum. Those
things certainly reflect on the organiza-
tion.
No kindly OF patriotic citizen would de-
prive a worthy pauper or cripple Of the
support or succor TO which his services
fully entitle him, but there are thou
sands upon thousands Of pension-draw-
ers who bring scandal upon the honor OF
the patriotic soldier aud innict a tire
mendous burden of taxation upon a
patient people to support themselves in
idleness and deprive needy old soldiers
of larger stipend.
There is no objection to pensions
there are many objections to frauds.

LIKE any other man with personal
grievance Labouchers has gone too far
in his attack upon the Queen for exclud-
ing him from the Gladstone cabinet lie
has made the mistake, that all little
great men always mako everywhere, of
thinking that he not only represents the
party but that he is the party. An in
suit or an ofense TO him is a blow at
the party. Labouchere is mis-
taken; all such little great men
cannot be otherwise than mistaken about
themselves. Labonchere with his gibes
has made himself personally obnoxious to
a great many Of the English people Even
the members Of the Radical party do not
admire him except for the mean things
he says about their enemies. The ability
TO say mean things is not a sure, GER
tainly il is not safe means of promo

make it possible for the point Of that
same pen TO prick them. For that reason
Labouehere is the only man in England
who Is grieving because he is not in the
cabinet and he is badly mistaken in
thinking that the whole country was
either disappointed OF much interested
in his disappointment; hence he easily
went too far in parading grievance
which the people listened to at first with
mild interest because Labouchere is
witty and censured afterward because
even wit grows tiresome when it becomes
