Unworthy Lawyers.

The recent exposures of the me-
thod of conducting business between
lawyer and client in the Probate
Court show that there is need of a
thorough reform. The lawyer who
makes a bargain with the client to
receive 80 or IS percent of claim as
fee should have no consideration in
court. His bill when presented for
taxation should simply be consider
ed as bill, and the charges should
be reduced to fair proportion in
relation to the services rendered.
Under the present tax practice the
oyster too often goes to the lawyer
and the shells to the litigants. A
little firm exercise of justice, such as
Judge Colfey has recently displayed,
is needed to correct this predatory
disposition of lawyers when they get
hold of a rich estate. The legal
profession itself, for its own honor,
should exercise the right of striking
men off the roll of the profession
who are found in fault. But where
is this done? A lawyer apparently
has immunity from disgrace. The
public may distrust him but he re,
mains i'll the professionals. +. cal

Fresh Scandal in Germany.

BERLIN, Dec. 16.-Once again Ber-
lin is wrought up. The Paris Figaro
published letter from Loewe u Co.,
Jewish gunmakers, to General Bou-
LANCER, when the latter was Minister
of War, saying he had sent an agent
to America to purchase machinery
to make the new Lebel rifles, and
they offered to furnish the French
Government with such machinery.
Boulanger made no reply.
The National Zeitung showed a
despatch to Loewe, who replied:
THE Figaro letter is quite true, but
that was in 1856, whereas we only
began manufacturing guns for the
German Government in 1889" The
Zeitung takes Loewe to task, saying
such an offer was both unwise and
imprudent, it being made at the
time of the Boulanger agitation.
when it was generally believed France
would make war upon Germany.
The news was OF once conveyed TIC
the emperor, who was keenly annoy
ed at this further scandal. He i'm,
mediately instituted inquiries and the
news was confirmed from Loewe's
own mouth. The general public re
ceivcd the news with feeling uncom
plimentary to Loewe and Chancellor
Caprivi's indiscreet and exaggerated
speech lauding Loewe is now gaugcC
at its true value.
Locwe has made this statement as
to the FigarO's story of his negotia
tons with the French Government
France in 1856 was about to pur
chase a plant for riile-malling il
America. We sent in an estimate
but, to our regret, the orders wcr,
executed mostly in America. Hao
we received orders Germany would
have benefited by driving out o

where America is able to hold he
