BERLIN, June s. - William Walter
Phelps, the retiring United St@tes minis
ter, presented at the castle yesterday his
letter Of recall. Immediately afterwards
Frieherr Won Bieberstein, minister OF
foreign affairs, introduced TO the emperor
Theodore Runyon, the new United States
minister. Mr. Runyon wore the uniform
Of general. He said:
II have the honor to hand to your ma
1esty President Cleveland's letter an
nouncing my appointment. In presenting
my credentials IL gives me great pleasure
to refer To the amity and excellent under
standing which now happily has 30 long
existed between the governments OF the
United States and Germany. i hope to be
instrumental in strengthening and max
ing permanent these friendly relations and
TO extend the commercial intercourse be-
tween the two countries. My earnest W
is for your majesty's welfare and for
continued prosperity of the great Ger,
nation"
In reply the emperor said that he reco
nized with pleasure the friendliness OF 10
relations between Germany and the United
States and was pleased to receive such a
conspicuous American citizen as Mr..
Runyon. He had always felt gratifed
to know that Germans who emigrated to
America made good and loyal citizens.
He wished that Mr.. Runyon's sojourn In
Berlin might be pleasant in every respect.
Afterwards the emperor and Mr. Runyon
conversed privately on American topics for
Is minutes.

INDIGNANT FISHERMEN.
They Ask the Dominion Government TO keeT
Out the Chinese and Japanese.

New WESTMINSTER, b. G., June b.--A
monster meeting Of the Fshermen's asso-
citation was held Saturday to discuss the
wholesale naturalization Of Japanese and
Chinese for the purpose Of getting fishing
licenses Several speeches were made. 1t
was pointed out that the fishermen were
gradually being crowded out by the
Japanese and Chinese. There are 81 can
neries on the Frazier river, and, although
the biggest pack on record is expected to
be made this season, not one white fisher
man has been employed SO far by the can
neries. The japanese and Chinese were
taking their places. The native Indians
were also being supplanted by the Japan
ese. Resolutions were passed asking the
Dominion government to refuse to grant
licenses to japanese and Chinese and to
issue the same only to whites and Indians.
The meeting was enthusiastic. Public
sympathy is strongly with the fishermen.
