of press prosecutions grows daily.
Even obscure papers published in
Leipsic, Mulhausen and Hanover do
not escape the vigilance of the Pub
lie Prosecutor. A Munich paper an
nounces the issue Of a cartoon on
carnival procession in which one
group represented a pictorial bur-
lesque Of the Emperor's Brandenburg
advice to the malcontents to emigrate.
The Emperor wanted the issue of the
cartoon stopped by the Government
authorities. His majesty's intoler-
ance of criticism approaches a craze.
A Berlin despatch says that the
jais throughout Prussia are full of
prisoners arrested for saying this or
that about the Kaiser. 1t is said to
be the express command of the Kai-
ser that insult to himself shall be
treated as an objectionable sin. A
Hebrew in Siesia was arrested for
intimating that Otto, the crazy king
of Bavaria, was no more crazy than
another who could be named. He
was given nothing to eat for several
days but salt pork, and being man
of strict Mosaic principles he nearly
starved to death. He was eventually
released without trial. Disguised
police agents mingle with the mobs
acting as spies and thus making many
arrests of parties who have dared to
take the kaiser's name in vain.
The Duke of Cumberland has sur
rendered the Hanover claim. 1t is
thought pressure from the Court Of
England was brought to bear. BY
this remuneration the last protest
against the kingdom created in 1866
is removed. The appreciation Of the
Guelph party Of the settlement is as
sured, and elements for long time
estranged are once more harmonious
in the empire. The Duke of Cum
berland will receive sixty millions of
silver, the treasure of the King of
Hanover, and the Chateau Heldes-
hansen, formerly used by the Prus-
sian Government for secret service
purposes.
All the belongings of General Bou
LANCER are to be disposed of at public
auction for the benefit of his heirs.
Yellow fever is raging in Brazil.
Terrible stories of the hospital treat
ment of the victims at Santos are
told. A man named Beemer sent a
boy to Mosericordia Friday afternoon
with fever, and called to see him
Saturday morning. Not finding him
he went to the dead house, where he
found the poor fellow still alive and
conscious. This is only one of the
many reported cases.
The British Government is get
ting into great difficulties in the
House of Commons, owing to the
complete block of business. Not one
of its measures is making the least
progress, and to make things worse,
scarcely any money can be obtained,
although large sums are required be-
fore the close of the present month
which ends the financial year. No
body seems to be able to see the way
out Of the middle. The blame falls
upon the new leader, Mr.. Balfour,
who does not seem to take the man.
agement as easily as his friends sup
posed he would. He lacks firmness,
promptness and decision.
Samoan advices state that various
meetings held throughout the island
have declared that an amendment of
the Berlin treaty of 1889 is neces-
sary. Petitions to that end will be
addressed to the Governments of the
United States, Great Britain and
Germany.
The Glasgow markets are closed
against cattle, sheep and pigs in con-
sequence of the prevalence of foot
and mouth disease. Cattle and swine
have been slaughtered at Paisley by
order of the authorities.
