BERLIN, May 2.-Deep disappointment
was expressed here yesterday morning
when the day was ushered in with cold
weather and rain. Thousands of work

the day at the suburban resorts. A num-
ber Of excursions left the city, but they
were sparsely attended. A large number
of Socialists attended meetings arranged
by the leaders, but there was no disorder.

Several Explosions I'm Liege Did Much
Serious Damage.
BRUSSELS, May IA tin cylinder with
fuse attached was found between the
collonades OF the foreign office last night.
This discovery created great alarm,
which was intensified by news from Liege
where two dynamite cartridges exploded
last evening, in the residence of Senator
Deslys and the other in the residence of
his son.
These explosions caused serious dam
age. Enormous crowds collected at the
scenes of the explosions. Later another
explosion occurred in the Choir of st.
Martins church, by which stained win
dows valued at $40 900 were shattered into
fragments and hundreds of panes of
glass in adjacent houses were smashed.
A fourth cartridge with spent fuse
was discovered later. A feeling of wild
panic prevails.

LIVING OR DEAD.

They are not dead to us. who keep
Thelr long, unvexed, reposeful sleep
Meath grassy coverlets, hower-bespread;
For love abides though graves are deep
Ana those who love are never dead.
They are not dead while heart to heart
Still hold communion though apart
The visible with the unseen,
And faith and longing know the art
Of bridging the wide space between.
They are not dead who, folded fair
In the kind Shepherds steadfast care
Await our coming in sure faith.
When we shall see them as they are
Made yet more beautiful by death.
But they are dead whose love has grown
To be the ghost of love alone,
Who meet us with averted eyes.
And air constrained and altered tone.
And chill and alien courtesies.
They move, they accost US, and they seen
Like creatures Of some weary dream:
So dead, so lost, so all-estranged.
The fire which cheered us with its CLEAN
Into the veriest ashes changed.
While II our dear and living dead,
With soft, still smiles and noiseless tread,
Should come, some day, to the old place,
There would not be a'thought of dread
In their first rapture of embraced
Oh, strangely blended joy and pain
Death turned to naught, and life made vain,
Loves shade and substance still at strife,
Who shall decide between the twain.
Or which is death, and which is life?

placed the United States in the pos ition
originally occupied by Russia, and
guaranteed to it all the rights that per-
tanned to that imperial government.
Russia's claim to absolute dominion
over Alaska and the Behring sea was
based upon discovery, conquest and set
Element. The geography of the coun-
try demonstrates indisputably to the
careful student that the Behring sea is
a land-locked ocean.
Immediately after the transfer. cor.
poration was organized in San Fran
cisco known as the Alaska Commercial
Company. Many of it's stockholders
were men occupying high positions in
the world Of finance and politics. To
this corporation a lease was given by
the secretary of the treasury of the seal
islands located in the Behring sea for q
period of twenty years, with the privi-
lege to kill, under certain restrictions.
100000 fur seals annually. In consid-
Grafton of this lease and the privileges
and protection guaranteed to it, the
company agreed to pay as rent $4,000
annually, and in addition to this amount
S2.64 for each skin taken; the govern
ment guaranteeing them protection in
the pursuit OF their business and what
amounted to an absolute monopoly of
the immense fur trade of the western
ocean. For the further protection, and
in the interests of this corporation, a
law was enacted by congress in 1868
prohibiting the killing ''of any mink,
sea otter, sable. fur seal, or any other
fur-bearing animal within the territory
of Alaska or the tcdters thereof" On this
law all the past litigation and the pres.
ent international difficulty hinges.
Under this arrangement the company
and its stockholders reaped golden
harvest and the treasury of the United
States obtained an immense revenue.
Prior to 1884 no depredations were
committed in Behring sea by the YES
sells of any nation that demanded the
Intervention of our government by its
revenue or naval vessels or by the proc
ess of its district courts-but imme-
diately after the enactment by congress
in 1884 OF an organic act creating q civil
government in Alaska complaints were
made to the treasury department by
the company that American and Brit
ish vessels in defiance of law were de-
stroying and capturing fur seals within
the waters of Behring sea. This, of
course, BODIED destruction to the inter-
cstS of the Alaska Commercial Com
pany, and Immediately the strong arm
of the government was called upon to
maintain them in undisputed possession
OF the vast number of fur bearing an

abiding place. In 1887 the matter cul-
