AFFAIRS In GERMANY.

The German Ambassador to Russia
Has Had a Long Audience With the
Emperor-Russ ia and France Go
Hand In Hand.
BERLIN, Oct. 22.-General Won Werder,
dience with the emperor yesterday. The
meeting could hardly be agreeable to the
general, as he misled the emperor and Ca
priv concerning the czar's instructions to
Baron Mohreneim aud Admiral Avelsn be-
fore the French fetes. Nothing could have
been more explicit than the czar's assur-
ance that he did not desire to encourage
French demonstrations. An official Rus
sian mission made the rounds of the Eu-
ropean capitals to proclaim the message of
peace. It was expected In Berlin that pos
sibly French fervor would infect the Rus
SLAMS, perhaps even the czsr, but matters
have gone further.
1t is significant that since the czsr's visit
to the French cruiser Isly off Copenhagen,
the Russian press has been allowed to run
riot in the matter of Russo French rels-
tons. On Friday, for instance, the Mos
cow Gazette proclaimed that heuceforth
France and Russia would go hand in hand
shoulder to shoulder, through good and
evil fortune, and would remain allies for
ever, defying the triple alliance on land and
menacing England's supremacy on the
sea.
In st. Petersburg the Move Vremya has
recorded or invented an Incident not re-
corded by the French p-ees. The story Is
that Admiral Avelan received in Paris a
deputation from Alsace, and after receiv-
T. 1 IL {nkf L1H L. -
Germany, expressed the hope that Alsace
and Lorraine would be won back by France.
Signor Golitti, the italian premier, has
thoroughly disappointed German fnanciers
with his exposition of italian finance and
his schemes to meet present difficulties
All chance of placing an italian loan here
has vanished sincs he spoke, and 1t will be
necessary for him to resign before more
foreign money can be obtained for his gov
eminent. Golitti's idea is that Italy can
do without foreign loan. At the same
time he evsdes the question how she will
repay the ten million pounds sterling held
Berlin and the four million required to
withdraw her small coin from circulation,
besides providing for the foreign service
of debt amounting to $4,000
The vessiche Zeitupg calls him q poll
tician beneath mediocrity and regrets the
fall of Crispi.
German dailies say that the American
press ought TO expose the Hettrick estate
/ swindle.
Last April Pennsylvania paper adver-
| tiesd a German estate of $40, DOC, 900 az
| awaiting George Hettrick's heirs in Ger
many. The attorney of the county where
the advertisement appeared gave notice OF
the matter to the United States legation
here, and ever since hundreds of person,
have applied for information to the legs
ton and consul general. All applicant
have been referred recently to Consul
General Edwards, who, after looking abou
in Germany for the estate, has made THU
report:
'T am convinced that the stories of tn,
existence of such an estate are circulated
by designing persons with view to max
ing money out of the unsusrecttng. Par
of the estate was supposed to be situate;
in Wiesbsden. Consul Mason, at Frank
fort-on- Main, has bsen communicates
with and replies that there is no foundation
for the stories beyond the cupidity o
