PRINCESS BisMARCK.s DEATH.



Lamsntsd.
BERLIN, Nov. 27.-The news OF the
death OF the Princess Bismarck made q
deep impression in all the government
departments. The newspapers univsr-
sally eulogize the deceased as o true
type OF the German hausfrau, who only
lived for her hunsband and children,
and in no way msddled in politics.
VARsIN, Nov. 27.-Pripcess Bismarck
has for years been suffering with bron-
chitis and gastric catarrh. Eighteen
months ago she was found lying in .
pool OF blood at the foot OF her bed.
The fainting attacks were repeated from
time to time. The immediate cause OF
death WAS dropsy, complicated with
heart disease. She was cheerful and
tried to deceive the prince as TO her real
condition.
When DR.. Sch weninger gradually broke
the news to the prince be remained
silent for some time at the death bed.
He had watched at her bedside almost
constantly the past few days, only TAX
ing short maps. The prince is nearly
overcome and go broken down that the
doctors insist on his removal to Fried
richsruhe. The funersl ceremonies will
be on q moderate scale out of regard
for the princes condition. The inter-
ment will probably be at Schonhausen,
the ancestral home Of the Bismarcks.

Bad Financial Legis-
lation.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-In an article
entitled An Essential Condition OF
Prosperity, contributed to the December
number of the North American Review.
which will be published tomorrow. the
Hon. James H. Eckles, comptroller OF
the United States currency, comments
that there can be no hope OF undisturbed
and substantial prosperity to all classes
of the American people unless and un-
til the whole currency and banking sys-
TENS of the country are formulated into
one harmonious plan, in which each
part shall be absolutely sound in prin-
ciple and the EN- bodiment of monetary
science. American financial legislation
has been OF the most pernicious char
acter, end bad legislation in the field OF
finance must always exert q destructive
influence on business. There is scarcely
q single act upon the statute books affect
ing our currency system which has not
been placed there simply to meet some
emergency that confronted the country
at the time, in the belief that difficulty
might be bridged over.
He cites AS an example OF emergency
measures, the greenback. The green
back measure fostered sentiment for
fat money, in which he includes silver
fres coinage. The national bank cur
rencv measure was also an expedient to
provide a market for government bonds.
Il was valuable as affording q perfectly
solid currency, but not sufficiently
elastic. The Bland act and the Sher.
man acts are reviewed.
The currency system OF the country
resulting from the constant passing OF
experimental laws has become so con-
fused and unsound that Mr.. Eckels
wonders not that we have suffered so
much financial disaster during the years
OF its construction, but that We have
suffered 30 little.
''It is not at all surprising" says he,
"that each morning the first inquiry
that addresses itself to the business man

which are royal princesses and mobiles.
The society has hospitals in every part

MISSIONARIES ARE SAFE.
The Oceanic brought over = dozen
missionaries from various parts OF

Missions, who has been engaged 10 mis-.

He does not believe there is any danger
to missionaries or other foreigners in

PEKIN MUST FALL.
The Chinese, he said, considered Port
Arthur impregnable and 1t was as
strongly fortified as ingenuity could
suggest. He believes the Japanese will
