The Government May Get a Ma
jority in the House.
OPPOSITION TO CAPRlYI.
That Is Notable Feature OF the Con-
serFatiYe Agitation.
His Commercial Policy Said to Be Unsat-
isfactory and Demand Is Made
for Man Better Yersed in
Financial Affairs.

BERLIN, May 20.-Though It would be
still rash and premature to attempt to
predict the fate of the diverse groups at
the coming elections for member of the
relchstag, it can be safely said that if the
government will offer slight concession
IN the army bill regarding the two years
service with colors, it Will get q majority
in the next house to support the bill. As
the contestants arrange themselves for
the approaching battle it grows evident
than the split IN the Freissinege party is
widening and larger faction of that po-
iltical group than first expected will be
sent towards the side of the government.
A somewhat similar condition Of affairs
exists in the Center party. Another factor
promising well for the government is the
growing tendency of the National Lib
erals to act in concert with the moderate
section OF the Freissinege party.
A notable feature of the situation is the
conservative agitation against Chancellor
Won Caprlv. While supporting the army
Dill, conservative newspapers support any
candidate who gives assent to protection
ism, bl-metallism and antiSemites. Con
sentative candidates proclaim that the
chancelior's commercial policy is running
the empire and demand that he be re-
placed by man better yersed in economic
and financial questions Count Eulen-
berg, president of the Prussian court OF
ministers, and DR.. Miguel, Prussian min
lister of finance, are the present ideals OF
chiefs of the new cabinet.
The turmoil of politics has as yet pro-
duced no effect on prices on the bourse,
though events in Australia and currency
movement in America have Influenced the
market. The growth of agitation in
favor OF bimetallism linked as it now is
with strong conservative action makes
many people believe in a perma-
nent gold standard. In agricultural
districts where exaggerated no.
tions prevail regarding the strength
OF the Agrarian party, a large
number of land mortgages are reported to
be Withdrawing their money, believing
they Will escape being repaid in deprecl-
ated silver or paper. The belief in the
return to bimetallism has no hold in
trading centers.s
While Emperor William is on a trip
along the Norwegian coast which he
postponed In consequence OF the political
crisis, the young princess will go to
Cassel. The empress, who expects to he
confined in August, will remain at Pots

Fraulein Manteuffel, daughter of the
celebrated Field Marshal Manteuffel, VINO
was reduced to poverty through the
prodlgality of her brothers, has obtained
through the empress a pension of 6,o0O
marks.

THE GATES WILL CLOSE.
Attorney General Oiney Says the Fair
Will Not Open on Sunday.

WASHINGTON, May 90 John Willis
Baer, secretary of the United Societies OF
Christian Endeavor, called on Attorney
General Olney in regard to closing the
Worlds fair on Sunday. General Olney
said that as the appropriations by the
government to the fair were on condition
that the fair would be closed on that day,
it would be the duty of the national COM
mission to see that this was carried out.
He added that two weeks ago he in
structed the district attorney at Chicago
to secure an Injunction restraining the
management from opening the gates on
Sunday, if necessary to keep them closed.
He said further that the government ex-
hibits would be closed on that day and
that the national government would see
that the entire exposition would be closed
by applying to the district court at Chi
cago for an injunction.
Mr.. Baer suggested that this might re-
suit in great delay in reaching a decision
and that meantime the exposition would
be open and that the Chicago directory
were counting on just this.
General Olney said he anticipated no
unusual delay in the matter.

with Secretary Gresham.

with Secretary Gresham.
WASHINGTON, May 2O.-roday the Chi
nese minister and official interpreter of
the legation called at the department OF
state and they were Immediately shown
into the secretary's private room, where
a consultation ensued lasting nearly a
half hour. When Secretary Gresham was
asked for information upon the subject,
he said be felt that he could safely declare
that there was now no reason TO fear any
trouble or outbreak in either the United
States or China, growing out of the Chi
nese law. Later in the day Chief Justice
Fuller, who has shown much interest in
the legal aspect present in the Chinese
situation, had an interview with Secre-
tarv Gresham.
Secretary Carlisle said today ne would
certainly enforce the law as to deporting
Chinese as fast as the means at his dis
posal would permit. He intended to be-
gin with that class of Chinese in this
country who illegally have come i'll con-
travention of the law of 1884. Having
sent this class out of the country he
would then turn his attention to the
other and larger class, of those who
failed to comply with the Geary law as to
registration. But SIC, 900 remains OF the
appropriation for the present fiscal year
TO carry out this law, but $50, 900 will be
available for the purpose on July LIST next.

Westner was laughing and talking about
Browns evidence at the time.

another till he drew a revolver and fired
two shots. Westner pulled a long dagger
and advanced towards Brown but fell
from loss of blood and died in a few mo-
ments. Brown was taken to Jail and is
not disposed to talk. He is badly cut
across the palm OF the left hand by the
dagger which Westner used. The first
ball fired struck Westner in the left FORE
arm and the second ball struck near the
base OF the breast and ranging downward
showing under the skin near the base OF

Deputies.
PARIS, May 2O.-The chamber of depu-
ties today had stormy debate over the
question of authorizing the prosecution
OF NJ. Baudin, Socialist deputy, On a
charge of having assaulted the police on
the 1st day Of May. During the course
of the debate Baudry D'Asson (Royalist)
became irritated at being interrupted
several times in the course of his remarks
by NJ. Depuy, prime minister, and ne
finally protested that NJ. Deputy ought TO
be compelled to apologize for what he
termed his 'disorderly Interruptions. -
At this point D'Asson was compelled TO
subside by the president.
M. Dupuy declared that the attitude
and manner of D'Asson precluded him
from replying to him. When a vote was
taken on the question, the chamber au-
thorized the minister of justice to prose-
cute Baudin.
In consequence Of the treatment to
which he was subjected, D'Asson sent
Deputies d'Cassenac and De Bernis to de-
. ID satisfaction from Premier Dupuy.

LONDON, May 2O.-William Lidderdale
ex-governor OF the Bank OF England,
and probably the greatest banking finan-
cial athority in the world, speaking ofthe
financial cris is in Australia and the dis
turbed state of affairs in the United States,
said there was absolutely no occasion, in
looking over the whole; world, to believe
any large dlstur was at hand, and
he thinks the worst is already past. Next
fall, he adds, the United Srates will begin
TO get back the gold which tn " have been
exporting, and then wa De time for
England TO exercise caution to avoid
trouble. He says the currency system of
the United States is very defective, and a
repeal OF the Sherman law would not
wholly relieve the trouble. The increase
in currency mas not been great enough TO
keep pace with the growth of population
and development of the country.

mending $3.50 round trip rate between
Chicago and the Missouri river and S37.5 80

action was caused by desire to give the

FLOODS IN OREGON.
Much Damage Already Done to Small
Farms

PORTLAND, Ore, May 2O.-The meltir g
of snow in the mountains has caused a
rise in the Columbia river and all it's trib-
utaries. Many of the smaller streams
flowing into the Columbia near the head
waters have overtiowed their banks and
considerable damage is already done
to small farms. 1t is said q
large amount of snow is still
in the mountains, and the water will
probably be much higher. In this city,
the Willamette river is about twenty feet
above low water, caused by back water
from the Columbia. The damage here
will not be heavy, as there is no current
in the river. The lower docks and cellars
along the water front are submerged, and
merchants have moved their goods out.
