GERMANY FOR BI-METALL1sM.

Copyrighted by Associated Press, 1861
Berlin, May 25.-one of the chief fea-
lures of the session Of the relchstag
which has not been without startling
Incidents, is the rapid growth Of the
bmetalllc agitation. The blmetallic party
has been even more successful in the
Prusslan diet than in the reichstag, In.
asmuch as the resolution Of the diet, In
stead of merely asking the government
to call a conference, as the reichstag
did, instructed the chancellor, Prince Ho
henlohe, much against his liking, t
persuade the bundesrath to so frame the
Invitations to the monetary conference
as to make 1t plain from the start that
Germany wishes to bring about a. general
double standard.
Practically, however, there is no doubl
that the bundesrath will empower the
government to invite the powers to send
representatives to the congress. 1t Is in
teresting to note that Prince Bismarck
In his recent table talk with the Saxon
deputatlon DECLARED himself to be BIZ
me.alllst, saying to Mayor Beck, Of Frle-
borg, that he was obliged, when in office,
to yield his own convictions to the opIn.

sTpAM YACHT cAPsIzEp.


Buffalo, N. Y, May "a steam yacht,
bearing the name of Trilby, was capslzed
in the Hamburg canal this morning and
two or three men are thought to be
drowned. The accident occurred at the
Michigan street bridge which is being re-
paired. The yacht was used as a ferry to
carry workmen across the canal, and to-
day there was a large crowd of Polish
laborers who sought conveyance to their
work. They clambered aboard like a
flock of sheep. The Triby took three
loads safely across. But when she re-
turned for the fourth, the Poles made
rush for her and all jumped together on
one side causing her to lurch, capsize, ana
go to the bottom. For several minutes
the water was alive with men, few OF
whom could SWIM but all Of whom were
struggling and clulching at each other or
anything within reach. Many climbed out
on the dock, but others were seen to sink
anu were not seen again. The canal is
being dragged, as 1t is believed that two
or three Poles are missing. Harbormaster
ooper says he believes that nobody US
drowned.

LorAN MAKES A SENSATION.


Portland, May 25.-rne trial Of James
Lotan, ex-collector Of customs, and seid
sack was concluded late this afternoon,
and the case was given to the jury. While
Judge Durand, special counsel for the
government, was making his closing ar
sument, Lotan created sensation In
court. Durnad stated that an bivestiga-
don of the method Of landing Chinese at
this port was instigated by the Harrison
administration which appointed Lotan
collector, Lotan Immediately jumped TO
mis- feet and shouted that the statement
was untrue. Judge Bellinger warned him
against interrupting the counsel, but Lo-
tan was persistent and the court finally
told him that he would be punished Tor
contempt unless he kept quiet Lotan
then sat down and was afterware

Get Two Years.
FULL PENALTY MErED OUT.
Germany for Bi-metallism---LOtan
Sensation--Wild Scenes in the
Wheat Pits,
FULL PENALTY MerED OUT.
Associated Press.

London, May 2-In passing sentence on
oscar Wilde and Taylor today, Justice
Willis said:
"I never before had such case as this
to dead with. Two men, such as you
are by the nature Of your crime lost to all
sense of remorse for what you have done.
To think that you, Taylor, should be
the keeper Of a male brothel, and that
you, Wilde, a man OF culture, should be
such perverter of young men. There is
no doubt but that the verdict is a just
one, and shall give you the full penalty
lilowed by law, and only regret that
II is not more severe You are both sem
fenced to hard labor for the term of
two years"
Wilde did not look at the Judge while
sentence was being pronounced. He look
ed like man who had made up his mind
to make the best of a bad situation,
Taylor smiled when sentence was pro-
nounced. AS Wilde turned in the dock
and started to go back to the prisoners
room the crowd yelled "Shame"
shqme!" This shouting caused Justice
Wills 10 rise ana eACldlHl III lOuu anu
determined voice "sience, silence"
While the jury was out, at the request
of representative of the Associated
Press, Wlldes' counsel procured the fol-
lowing signed statement from Wilde:
The charges alleged against me are en-
tirely untrue. Youth in every form al
ways fascinated men, because youth has
naturally that temperament to which tn
artists try to attain, Alr works of art
are works produced IN the moment Of
youth. l have no sense at all Of social
grades. love society and the rich and
well born on account Of their luxury,
culture, grace of their lives. external ac-
cldents of comeliness of life, but any one,
ploughboy, fisherman, or street Arab, has
an interest for me. Mere humanity Is so
wonderful. / do not ask Of the young
what they do; don't care who they are.
Their ignorance has its mode OF wisdom
their lack Of culture leaves them open
to fresh and vivid Impressions (Slgned)
Oscar Wilde"

New York, May %--The bears In wheat
had things their own way during the first
hour. but before midday the pits re-
sounded with yells as they franticaly
tried to cover short sales put out yester-
day and early today. Light rains over
portions of the winter wheat belt had
so improved crop accounts that the coun-

and sold big blocks on the decline; but
as soon as 1t was learned that frosts were
predicted for tonight. over a large area
in the West. 1t resumed Its buying with
all the old-time vigor. July opened cent
from last nights close, and fell to 7S

terror to the bears. Up II went until II

En- la noche del IA de Noyiembre de
1898. monte solo en- una canoa en- La pun
Ia del monte de Arena salt furtiva-
mente de la isla de Santa Lucia, ocupada
va por el snemigo, llevando en- papel ingles
en- guineas ell precio que hAbia podido
obtener por las plsntaciones. Ell senior de
Champcey, gracias q los minuciosos conooi-
mientos que habia adquirido de aquellos
parajes, habia podido burlsr los crueeros
ingleses refugiarse EN- un paso dificil y
desconocido de Grosllet, ordepandome que
me reuniese A I'll aquella misma noche, y
tan solo esperaba mi llegsda bordo para
salir del paso con Ia flotilla que escoltaba y
ponsr rumbo Francia; pero en- el trayecto
tuve la desgracia de eaer on manos de los
ingleses.
Estos, maestros en- traicion, me pusisron
an In alternative de ser fusilado en- el acto
de venderles por el million que lleyaba,
el que me entregarian el secreto del paso
donde se guarecia la aotiila.
