BERLIN, June 12.-Germany is in the
midst OF campaign, but one could not
tell 1t by the appearance Of the streets, or
even by the newspapers. Everything
seems peaceful. but below the surface
there is excitement, bitter feeling and in
tense craftsmanship, such as not even the
days before the Civil War developed in
America. More than twenty political
parties are striving for supremacy at
present. All and every class of people
are dissatisfied. They all look for saliva
ton from some political party Of their
own.
1t is impossible at present to forecast
the results of Thursdays election, ex-
cept to say that the two extremist parties,
the Conservatives and Socialists, will
gain largely. The Emperor is much dis
tressed at the political confusion, and
feels very bitter against his erstwhile
friend Herbert Bismarck, who has been
very outspoken in his criticisms. Count
Herbert is running as a candidate in
rural district, but the chances for his cleo
ton now seem extremely slight.
LII every ulStTlCL LQ0r6 are from nV0 TO
ten different candidates. The votes will
be so split up and divided that secondary
elections will have to take place in at
least two-thirds of the election districts.
Won Caprivi counts upon making dickers
with various factions, which will enable
him to pass the Emperor's pet law in an
acceptable shape over the heads of the
Socialists. What the Kaiser will most
try TO do will be to make concessions to
number of reactionary parties, and thus
line them up In support of his policy.
The Liberal parties are we'll aware of this
danger, and they will seek to compro-
mise on the army bill, in order to avoid
a return of the reactionary element to
power, and on this spirit of compromise
the Kaiser and Chancellor build their
hopes of success.
A mob of 200 Social Democrats broke
into hall near Elbing this evening and
attacked the Conservatives who were
meeting there. The police were called
out and cleared the hall, but the Socialists
refused to disperse. Eventually the po-
lice charged upon the Socialists until the
crowd dispersed. Many rioters were
injured

CHICAGO, June 12.--Ex-P President Ben
Jamin Harrison arrived at the Worlds
Fair grounds shortly before noon. After
drive about the grounds he was enter
tanned at luncheon in the Administration
building by the Worlds Fair officials.
When lis presence on the grounds was
made known there was vigorous clap
ping of hands and waving CT handker-
chiefs wherever he went.
The Infanta Eulalie also appeared on
the grounds and breakfasted at the re-
production of the famous London
White Horse Inn," afterward going on a
sightseeing tour through the grounds.
Sir Fitzroy Donald Maclean, heredi-
tary Chief of the Clan Maclean, has ar
rived here to attend the Worlds Fair
gathering of the clan, accompanied by
Archibald John Maclean, Chieftain of
Pennycross. This is the first gathering
of any Scottish clan in the world outside
of Scotland. They were met at the sta
ton by big delegation of the clan. Be-
side the Chicago Macleans were others
from surrounding places, such as Rock
ford, ILL.,; GAINESVILLE, Wis, and others
from as far away as San Francisco, San
Antonio, Texas, and Toronto. The
Canada Chieftains will be feted and
Toasted during their stay.
The weather to-day was beautiful, aud
great crowd thronged the grounds of
the fair. Ex-President Harrison, who is
here to make speech at the dedication of
the Indiana building, was questioned this
evening regarding the Sunday closing
controversy. He said it seemed the fair
would prosper better had the controversy
not occurred. 1.-THE American people"
said he, should put the stamp of ap-
proval on the fair by literally attending
and seeing the wonders of the world
grouped together for their their inspec-
tion." The ex-President expressed him
self as greatly pleased with and surprised
at the development of the fair.

BORDEN MURDER TRIAL.
Early Testimony of Lizzie Excluded
the Court.

Early Testimony of Lizzie Excluded by
the Court.
New BEDFORD (Mass.). June l2-At
the opening of the second week of the
Lizzie Borden trial this morning over
half the spectators were women. After
the court was formally opened. the jury
was directed to retire, and what promised
to be protracted argument over the adj
instability of the stenographlc notes of
Miss Borden's testimony at the inquest
began.
After the arguments were concluded
the court retired for consultation, and on
returning it decided to exclude the testi-
mOny.
DR.. Redrick was then placed on the
stand and testified that from the exam
ination of the bodies he believed Mrs.
Borden died first
Policeman Hyde testified he saw Miss
Borden and her friend, Miss Russell, go
down into the cellar the night after the
murder with a pail to the water-closet
and sink. The prisoner made another
but Miss Russell looked nervous.
After recess DR.. Dolan testified regard
ing the finding of the bodies. A cast of
Mr.. Borden's head was introduced and
the doctor explained how the wounds
were located. Miss Borden covered her
eyes with fan while the doctor was
making his demonstration. He expressed
the opinion that the wounds could have
been inflicted by woman of ordinary
strength, and believes that Mrs. Borden
was dead an hour and half or two hours
before Mr.. Borden.
