GERMANY'S WALL.
She Wants More Soldiers to
Defend Her Against Her
Enemies.

BERLIN, Jan. 12.-Chancellor Won
Caprivi last night attended a meeting
of the Reichstag committee appointed
to consider the army bill and made an
important speech setting forth the
necessity for the adoption of the bill
without change or modification. Re
ferring to the relations existing be-
tween Germany and Russia, the
chancellor declared that there was no
enmity between Emperor William and
the Gar nor between the two govern
ments. The chancellor referred to
the possibility Of an attack being
made upon the nations composing the
triple alliance. Germany. Austria
and Italy, and said that if such
an attack was made, the chief onslaught
doubtless will he directed against Ger
many a. the strongest member Of the
alliance. Experience had shown that
when war was threatened it was best
for Germany to take the offensive. To
do that would require armies, of which
the triple alliance have a considerable
superiority. As a matter of fact the
triple alliance was in the minority in
point of numbers. An offensive policy
was good policy. Ii meant short
wars with quick victories and lasting
results. Germany's present forces
should no longer suffice against the in
creased strength of their mighty oppo-
neuts. The government therefore
would not be able to take the respon-

country unless the ornaments were

WASHINGTON. ID. {. Jan. IL
Senator John f. kenna of West Vir-
ginia, died at o'clock this morning
of heart disease from which he had
been for some years IL an acute suf-
ferer. Two summers ago with a view
to beneftting his physical condition
he established an amateur boat build
ers shop and amused himself in the
mech ,nical operation of constructing
a boat. He partially recovered and
resumed his seat in the senate where
he made memorable speech but soon
suffered relapse from which he never
rallied. His sufferings the last few
months from heart spasms were poign-
art and 30 severe as to convince his
family death must he looked upon as
almost welcome. Mr.. kenna was
born in 1913 and wa the Youngest
man in the senate.
His death at this time will add new
features 10 the senatorial contests now
in progress between the supporters Of
his colleague, senator Faulkner and
ex-senator Camden who are contend
ing for the senatorship now held by
Mr.. Faulkner. which will expire on
the 18th of March next. Senator

No COMPROMISE Reached.

LONDON, Jan. 12.-The conference
between the representatives of the
master cotton spinners and Of the OPP
eratives on a strike against a FIVE per
cent reduction Of wages ended in a
disagreement at Manchester, to-day.
The operatives representative offered
to accept a reduction Of FIVE per cent,
provided the reduction should continue
only as long as the mills should run
half time, full rates to he paid when
the mills worked full time. To this
the masters delegates refused 10 agree,
and the strike will continue. 1t Is
stated that the many millions of CAPT
tai which are invested in the cotton
spinning industry in Oldham are not
yielding at present a return of one per
cent and that the miserable interest
Yielded at Oldham is an index to the
condition of the whole industry. this
supplies the basis for the masters
answer to-day.

:. Career.

WASHINGTON, Jan. ll.-General
!, BENJAMIN F. Butler is dead. He died
at 1:30 a. m. of heart failure superin-
tended by pneumonia. For weeks
past the attention of watching news
paper men had been centered ON the
bedside of James &. Blaine, and while
watching the strange fluctuations of
his mysterious illness, NO one for mo-
ment had anticipated that another
{. leading figure in American history
almost rs notable and even more pic
turesque-was about to be removed.
And when an hour later this unex-
pected occurrence was added to the
news that death had ended the suffer
ings of the West Virginia Senator,
Mr.. Kenna, it was felt that the night
lrad been fruitful of important events.
Genera. H.;;Ier's hcme in Washington
of late years had been in handsome
brick residence owned by him at 22O
New Jersey avenue, in the neighbor-
hood of the capitol. There his nieces
Mrs. Lanier Dunn and Miss Stevens
kept house for him. His extensive
law practice kept him very much in
this city during the winter months
when the supreme court Is in session.
During the present winter case he
had brought TO the United States SUI

constant residence in this city. \
few weeks ago the case was
DECIDED AGAINST HIM
If he took the matter in any wav to
heart he did not manifest il in his out
ward demeanor. He pursued his
other cases with unimpaired vigor.
Only Yesterday an old litigation over
a claim of Samuel Strong, since dead,
in which General Butler was tenacI-
"u=ly fighting tor legal fee which he
alleged was due from the estate, was
on the docket. Counsel asked the
court to put the ease down for hear

Butler came over from New York on

might be expected from his advanced
age-seventy-four. He went to the
war department after leaving the
court in the afternoon looking after
