The change was made for no

The Russo.G German Treaty.

The commercial ertente between Germany
and Russia Just arrived at draws atten-
ton TO some curious and interesting
changes that have recently and almost
suddenly taken place in the situation In
continental Europe. So far as Germany
f. concerned. the treaty. which, II Is con-
coded. Will be ratified by the Reichstag Is
a victory for the Emperor, but singular
phase of the victory is that in carrying
his point William was in antagonism TO
the Conservatives.
The Protectionists OF the empire are the
agrlculturists. who compose the bone and
sirew OF the Conservative, If not the
war. party. and the Free Traders are the
manufacturers. whose interests are for the
most part In the cities. and who constitute
In large measure the Liberal electorate.
In Russia the manufacturers are the
protectonists. and the agricuturists are
the free traders. 1t therefore appears that
the Car in favorirg a free-trade treaty
has antagonized his most loyal supporters
also. Another interesting feature of the
situation is that the French Chamber Is
radically protectionist, and 1t is said that
If 1t does not recede from It's position on
the tariff question 1t will dissipate all
the effects OF the late Franco-Russan
love-feast
The ultra Conservative organs in Ger
many take the position that the Emperor
yielded TO Russia In asserting to the
treaty In order to avoid war, but there
appears TO be nothing substantial in the
contention. 1t is well known that Will
liam has for several years held advanced
views regarding tariff reform.

A Gold Snap.

The weather is terribly cold In the north.
west, and from the indications" that are
given us by the Weather Bureau 1t seems
that we are likely to have a touch of real
winter here to-day.
So far our winter has been mild; sc
much so that few persons In Virginia have
been able TO fill their ice-houses. In the
neighborhood of Richmond there has not
been a pound gathered; perhaps our breth-
rem Of the mountains may have been some
what luckier.
Whether 1t brings an ice-harvest or not,
"cold snap is to be desired, and after
all the beautiful mild weather we have had
In Virginia there should be no grumbling
at a brief season Of snow and sleet. The
mildness Of the weather has been a great
boon to the poor. We cannot be too thank
full that this winter was not as rigorous
as last winter was. Had II been, there
would have been intense suffering here.

TRIAL OF BEVERLEY P. cRUMP.
Three Indictments Found Against Him by
the Grand jury.

the Grand Jury.
NEW KENT COURTHOUSE, February
12.-(SpecIal)--A special grand jury was
engaged here all day Thursday last In the
investigation of charges against Beverly
p. Crump Of theft and assault upon Miss
Hanna Moore a young school teacher
in this county.
On Friday morning the grand jury re-
turned into court with three indictments
against the accused-one for breaking
and entering the house Of Walter Clarke
with intent to steal the property Of Miss
Moore; one for burglary. and one for
assault upon the young lady with a
shotgun Later in the day Crump was
put upon trial upon the first charge. He
is prosecuted by Hon. Manly II. Barnes.
assisted by Herbert I. Lewis, ESQ. of
West Point, and is defended by Il. l..
Lacy and Thomas c. Gordon, Esqrs.
Crump went off after the commission
OF the offence, and was arrested In Poca-
hontas, as reported In the Dispatch. and
brought back here.
The case attracts a great deal Of atten-
ton, and the crowd In attendance was
larger than has been seen here for years.
From the fact that Crump, the ac-
cused, was a lodger In the house In
which the theft was committed, the jury
found the prisoner not guilty OF the
felony, but guilty Of larceny, and fixed
his punishment at confinement In jail
for thirty days and fine OF fifty dollars.
This Is considered by the public as very
lenient.
The other cases OF burglary and felo-
NOUS assault were continued till the next
term.

The New Judge.

The members OF the bar are to meet
to-day with the purpose of agreeing upon
some one whom they will recommend
for election as Judge Of the City Court
of Law and Equity.
Every man OF them should be present
and the nominee should be the very best
qualified person who can be induced TO
accept the office.
Certainly lawyers should know what
are the requisite qualifications for such
a judgeship. and when the privilege OF
selection is practically in their hands
they should exercise 1t with such discre-
tioa and sagacity as TO win credit Tor
themselves and earn the thanks OF the
public.

trary in the bill the Judge win appoint
a clerk to serve until the beginning OF

Mr.. Harter. of Ohio, an advocate of a
new system OF State banking. but. though
new. a system which promises to De bet
ter than any other State-bank system yet
proposed, made In the House Of Represen-
tatiyes last week speech containing the
following alarming declaration. We quote:
"The whole financial system OF our
country Is practically resting upon the
shell OF Il volcano The fire may burst
forth at any moment. and the whole struc-
ture may fall down and into ITS crater,
and say that our object should be 70

with a plane and gradually shaving 1t on

the condition OF the country more critical
and more critical still. until in the end de-
struction must ensue."

The Right Doctrine.

Secretary Carlisle made on Saturday
the House Of Representatives a declara-
ton which has the ring OF the true
metal IN IL. lie said that IL he were TO
sell the governments bonds for gold
and sink the gold in the Atlantic ocean
the bonds would not thereby he vitiated.
This declaration has a double significance.
II indicates. first, that the Secretary
had not and has not a doubt as TO his
right to sell the bonds in question, and,
second, that whether he had the right
or not, and no matter TO what purpose
he may devote the proceeds of the sales
Of the bonds. the bonds themselves viii
be recognized by this great government
as binding obligations which no man OF
either the Democratic party or the Re
publican party will ever propose TO repu-
date.
Again: This declaration means that II
is unwiso TO raise any question as 10
the validity Of the bonds under considera-
ton whether the facts be as Mr. Bailey,
claim they are or not. The Secretary OF
the Treasury is a public servant. He has
charge Of the finances of the country
and particularly Of the Treasury. HIS OH
cial acts are the acts Of the General Gov
eminent If this constitutional oihcer
were to sell government bonds. and II
was ascertained after their issue that
there was no law authorizing them TO be
sold, but nevertheless that the govern
ment had used the money thus obtained
to pay either ordinary or extraordinary
expenses, Congress would have to pro-
coed as soon as possible TO pass an act
validating the bonds aforesaid. 1t would
cost the government, and certainly the
people. ten times hfty-million of dollars
TO repudlate the fifty million loan which
Mr.. Carlisle has just effected.
