WANTED A REPUBLIC.
A Desire of the Gar That He Could
Not Crafty.

Strea tor, ILL.,, Nov. 1.-The Rev. Am
brose Vectta, pastor of the Russian
Greek Catholic church. of Chicago was
in Streator today to hold services, and
on hearing of the death of the car,
|said:
ut is a mistake to think that this
grand man was not beloved by the ma
jority of his subjects. Alexander III.
in all, just ruler of the Russian people
The initial steps in many reforms were
|1naugurated during his reign, the most
important of which is the compulsory
national public school system. The
car was greatly blamed for not giving
his people a constitutional form of gov
eminent; but they are not ready for
that yet. 1t would be a most foolish
thing to hand a constitution to a band
Of rowing Tartars
"a foreign reporter was once ad-
mitted to an audience with the car,
and bluntly asked him why he did not
grant his people a constitution. The
car replied:
They would not know what to do
with it. If the dearest wish of my heart
could be achieved, 1 would make a re-
public out of Russia today, instead of
an absolute monarchy But my people
are as children. We are young in our
national strength, and it is the youth
and strength of an uncouth giant. NY
people must be educated before they
can govern themselves
$50 we truthfully called the car
our little father He loved US and we
loved him.

MERELY A SANITARY.
Germany Adheres to Her story of No
Retaliation.

Retaliation.
Washington, Nov. There is little
reason now to expect the German gov
eminent will relax its new order prohib-
Iting the Importation of American cattle
and fresh beef, and it is probable that the
matter will settle down to a question of
endurance as between German sugar and
American beef. Our ambassador at Ber-
lin, Mr.. Runyon, has presented Secretary
GTesham'S protest to the German foreign
minister and ACCOMPANIED it with the
promise that the president will recon-
mend to Congress the amendment of the
sugar schedules of the tariff act in the
me of removing the differentiaI duty.
Whch is the cause Of German complaint
ana dlscr1minatfon. Apparently this repre-
sentatlon mas made little impression for
ne cabled the state department that the
German minister had diSclaiIned any iiea
OF retaliation and had assured him the
prohibition of our cattle was based solely
en- sanitary reasons that could not be
neglected.
OF course, our state department cannot
go behind the German disclaimer of r.
talfation, however it may regard the pro-
irg to disprove the diagnosis of German
veterinary surgeons and then settle down
to a waiting policy.
Meanwhile it will be interesting to note
how the president treats the subject in his
| message to Congress, and whether in
view of Ciermanys maintainence of her
position, he will redeem his promise of
recommending to Congress an amendment
of the sugar schedule.

GRIEF AT THE CAPITAL.
Profound Sorrow Brought to the
Russian Legation.

Washington, Nov 1.-The announce
ment of the cars death brought pro-
found grief to the Russian legation at
Washington. Official word came late in
the afternoon in the following cable
from the minister of foreign affairs:
ST. Petersburg, Nov. 1T has pleased
our Lord to recall to Him our much be-
loved sovereign, Emperor Alexander
the third. Died at Livadia this after
noon 1st of November, at 2:15.
(Sig7led.) GIERS.
The minister communicated the in
formation to the state department, but
owing to the absence at the time from
the city of the president. who was
squirrel shooting, it is probable the
message of sympathy and coincidence
from President Cleveland will not be
sent until tomorrow.
Prince Cantacuzene said history In
time would pay it's just tribute to the
merits of Alexander III. He had given
Russia what she most needed peace
and quiet "For ten years there had
been nothing heard of nihilists except
in the inspired attacks of malicious
persons. The emperor had gone freely
among the people unguarded and unat-
tended. He was in the habit of driving
with the czarina in a sleigh through
the public streets. The sentiment OF
affection of Russian people toward the
emperor constituted a protection much
stronger than police protection could
afford. The previous emperor had beer
guarded by the police, and yet he met
assassination, while the late emperor
moved openly among his people unit
ne died, to their universal grief"
1t is not yet determined whether re-
iigiouS ceremonies will be held ir
Washington in commernoration of the
ear. There is no Greek church here
and the one at New York is not con
nected with the established church o.

Verbal Coincidence.

Washington. Nov. Upon receipt of
the official notification of the cars
death, Mr.. Adoo, second assistant sec
rotary of state, acting secretary in the
illness of Secretary Gresham, called
upon Prince Cantacuzene and convey
ed verbally to him the coincidence of
the president and secretary of state.
A formal letter of coincidence from
Secretary Gresham will be later sent
to him.
The members of the diplomatic corps
all called and left their cards at the
Russian legation today. The only WISH
tor received there this evening was
Assistant Secretary Adoo.
Prince Cantacuzene has telegraphed
to Bishop Nicholas, of the Greek church
of Alaska, to inquire if he can come to
Washington and hold a memorial SER
vice to the car.
No reply has been received from him,
and it is not definitely known whether
he is in San Francisco or Chicago.
1t is proposed to hold the memorial
service at the Russian legation, as there
is no Greek church in Washington.

| Mrs Tomlinson was called and told
a Straightforward story of Madame
Charles getting her husbands influence
through her. Madame Charles, on her
third visit gave Mrs. Tomlinson $500 to
secure a license. Witness said she
gave this money to her husband and
then went. to the excise board. Her
husband went into the commissioner S
room.

'Sbut through the door 1 saw Commits
sioner Andrews. When my husband
came out the $500 was gone and he
said the license would be granted"
Mr.. Tomlinson again took the stand
and caused a sensation by saying he
went into Andrews room and gave
him $780,
Are you positive that you paid Mr..
Andrews, who Is now street cleaning

Eyes, positive; have known him for
thirty years"
Commissioner Andrews was sitting a
few feet from the witness and right
below the desk. When accused, he
turned pale.

ator O'Connor.
The witness nodded his head.

asked Senator Bradley.

lively.

Senator O'Connor.

bitterness in his voice.

Russia At San Francisco Bishop Mich
olas is at the mead of the Greek church,
diocese of Alaska. AT the time Alaska
was owned by Russia, the Greek
church was established there, and since
the purchase Of the country by the Uni
ted States, many Russians there have
continued their devotion to that
church. 1t is probable that Minister
Cantacuzene may ask Bishop Nicholas
to come to Washington and hold mem
orial services similar to those held on
the death of President Carnot, but
there is some doubt as to the bishops

patch from Berlin, Emperor William
has received a dispatch from General
Won Werder, German ambassador to
Russia, now at Livadia, saying the car
refused to go to Corfu, as he desired to
die in Russia.
A notable obituary sketch will appear
in the Times tomorrow. The author of
the sketch of the dead emperor was on
intimate terms of friendship with the
car and he says the czar never had
the slightest sympathy with high Gull
ture, adding:
Indeed the car rather glorified in
the idea of being of the same rough
texture of the majority of his subjects,
and if he knew he was some times dis
respectfully the Peasant Car he re-
garded this epithet a compliment. His
straightforward. abrupt manner, saw
oring sometimes Of gruffness. and his
direct, unadorned method of express
sion, har1nonized we'll with his rough
hewn immobile features and somewhat
sluggish movements. The impression
he generally made in conversation was
that of a good, honest, moderately in
telligent, strong-willed man, who might
perhaps listen to explanations, but who
certainly would stand no nonsense from
his subordinates nor any one else.
only those who have had the priv
uege or OBSERVING him IN the unre-
strained intimacy of his family, espe-
cially when ronping with his children
or amusing himself with his four-footed
pets. could fully realize what a simple,
kindly nature was concealed behind a
by no means sympathetic exterior
The writer then alludes to the cars
strong antt-Gern1an feeling from the
time he was czarewitch, and says:
But he always had pacific intentions.
He feared that Russia might be made
the victim of coup d'etat of the young
kaiser and therefore thought 1t advis-
able to make persistent advances to
France. But his attitude was strangely
exaggerated If not entirely misunderstood
by France. The czar was too auto
cratic to enjoy hearing the 'Marseil-
1aise' in his own capital, and too pru-
dent to ally himself closely with an
importuous nation under a weak gov
eminent which was quite ready to make
use of an entente; for diplomatic pur-
poses he had no intention of letting
himself he dragged into war"

Washington, Nov. 1.-The Japan war
news received at the legation gives
graphic descriptions of the emperor's
headquarters at Hiroshima and of the
enthusiasm with which the war pre-
parations are made.
The imperial headquarters are in an
old wooden building, two stories high,
formerly used as an army barracks.
The rooms are small and Scantily fur
niShed.
The emperor occupies the upper floor,
while the lower story is used by the
council of war The emperor rises at
8 o'clock. and does not retire until II,
all the while wearing a military cos
tune.
He personally directs all that does on,
and has proved to be an indefattgable
worker.
All the barracks and quarters nearby
are full of soldiers.
There is a constant rattle and clank
of cannon, horses, guns and sabres.
The streets are lined with flags and
lanterns. The soldiers, as they move
on, are cheered by enthusiastic crowds.
The spirit of humbling China to the
dust is everywhere manifest, and the
Japanese, without exception, regard the
result as beyond the slightest doubt.
The unanimity Of war is shown by the
printed declaration Of the Vaishinto
party, which hitherto resisted the gov
eminent. It announces the chastise-
ment of China as the first and para
mount duty of Japan. 1t gives it's sup
port to all war measures, and says it
will resist any proposition of peace
until China is humbled and the objects
Of the war attained.
The full text of the emperor's decree
establishing pensions for distinguished
service is printed.
The pensions range from 900 yen to
Go yen per annum, according to the
service, and are divided into seven
classes. In case of death, the widow or
orphans of the deceased Is to receive
the pension.
