The Post has a scathing article on what
II calls the "Philo-Semitic press Of
Germany and America, dealing with the
case OF Louis Stern of New York. who is
under sentence Of fine and Imprisonment
IN Munich for insulting Baron Won Thun-
gen, deputy commissioner of the spa at
kisslngen. These journals. the Post
charges, are deliberately trying TO defeat
tne ends Of justice by their denunciations
OF the perfectly proper sentence imposed
upon stern. It is-a remarkable fact that
the American embassy has not vet re-
ceiyed any official information in regard
70 Stern.s case. The Munich papers ex-
pain this by declaring that a basis of
diplomatic negotiations which would en-
able Ambassador Runyon to interfere df-
reetly in Stern's behalf is wholly lacking.

Count Won MOltke, the emperor's aid

car importance have ceased. 1t is now
known that he simply went to St Peters

letter which was the necessary accompa-

make any reference whatever to political

A HEROIC RESCUE AT SEA.
The Crew of "A Schooner Taken on
With the Waves Running Noun
tain High.


New York. Oct. s.-The Norwegian
fruit steamer Franklin. Capt Rasmussen,
arrived from Baracoa to-day after
rough trip. On Oct. in latitude 1894
longitude 1920. during a heavy northeast
gale, a dismantled vessel was sighted
and on nearer approach signals of dis
tress were seen. The Franklin bore down
upon the wreck and found her to be what
was left of the schooner William Fred
erick of Belfast Maine. The sea was
running mountain high and it was very
hazardous to lower a boat, but there
seemed to be no prospect of the weather
moderating, so Capt Rasmussen directed
the life boat to be manned and lowered,
and after a hard pull the schooner's side
was reached. Then the distressed schoon-
er's crew of seven in all jumped over
board one by one and were picked up by
the Franklin's crew in the life boat. All
hands were taken safely on board the
Franklin but the life boat was dashed to
pieces against the steamers side when
the crew were about to hoist her on board.
Capt. H. G. Jordan of the dismasted
schooner said he was bound from satina
river, Georgia. for Belfast, Me-, with a
cargo of lumber and left Cumberland bar
on Sept "A. on Oct. 2 the vessel began
making water. At first the pumps were
able to control the influx, but as the gale
continued, the leak became worse, until
finally she was almost decks-to. part OF
the deck load was jettisoned and. the
schooner was headed for land, but at D.
m. on-Oct. her masts went by the
board, leaving the schooner unmanage-
able in the trough of the sea. All the pro-
visions were ruined and the. Yater casks
We're submerged and fIled WITH salt Water.
After perilous night, which will doubt
less live in the memories of all the crew,
the Franklin was sighted Capt Jordan
said it did not seem possible for a small
boat to live in the heavy sea that was
running and he highly praised the hero
ism of those who manned her. He and his
crew saved only the clothes they stood
in, all their effects being submerged. When
left the schooner,s waist broke out with
the swashing and pounding of the deck
load, and Capt. Jordan thinks she will
soon break up. 1t was impossible to set
fire to her.
The schooner William Frederick hailed
from Belfast, Ne, where she was built
in 1874. She was of 430 tons register, and
was partially insured.

SYMPATHY ron oUBA.
Resolutions Adopted Mt n Mass Meet
ing at nnltImore.

Baltimore, Nd, Oct e.-At a largely
attended meeting at New Music hall this
afternoon resolutions were adopted ex-
pressing sympathy for the Cuban insur-
gents, and urging congress to recognize
them as belligerents.
DR.. II. NJ. Wharton, who is conducting
a series of eVangelistic meetings in the
haH delivered short address on Cuba"
prior to his regular sermon, in the course
OF which he said: Cuba stands on tip
toe just off our coast, and wants to know
II we still believe in the declaration of in
dependence; Let us send our love to
her and tell her yes, with all our hearts.
We have no enmlty for Spain. but strong
sympathy and loving compassion for her
struggling victim. It matters little where
she VIII go when free. She may be in
dependent or she may join with Mex
leo, or If she will, let her come TO us
and add another blazing star to our

ing resoIutons, which We're adopted by
a rising vote: I'VE, citizens of Bal
timore and the United States of Amer
lca' desiring to make some expression OF
sympathy and regard for the noble peo-
pie OF Cuba, who are now engaged in
desperate struggle for freedom, do hereby
publish our convictions and opinions in
the following resOlutiOns
''We believe that all men are created
free and equal and are entitled to the en-
Joyment of life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness.
I'VE believe that these are the princf-
pies for which out forefathers fought
and are sacred to the heart of every true
American. 1t is for these principles that
brave little Cuba is now boldly contending
and is pouring out her hearts blood at
the feet OF merciless tyranny. Without anv
animosity against SPAIN we declare our
selves the friends of Cuba and do most
earnestly recommend to those in author
ity to extend to our neighbor the sym
pathy she so much seeks and so richly de-
serves, and to recognize as belligerents
and not insurgents, the brave and suffer-
ing people who strike for their homes
and freedom"

GERMANS SOCIAL DEMOCRATS.
The Congress nt lIresIau Opens With
Large Attendance.

Breslau. Oct. 6.-The congress OF the
social democrats opened here to-day.
The railway station and the streets
were crowded from an early hour in the
morning. and the greatest interest was
manifested in making the congress one
Of the most successful that the socialists
have ever held.
The arrivals seemed to be far more
numerous than usual Enthusiastic
greetings were exchanged between the
delegates and their friends at the Offices
of the party. The leaders were given a
most hearty welcome. At II o'clock a
great meeting to welcome the delegates
was held In Concordia hail. Owing 10
enormous concourse Of people the police
closed the hall against new comers an
hour before the meeting began, much
to the disappointment or many persons
who were very anxious to gain admission.
Numbers Of those who We're not able
to enter the hall stood about the streets
in close vicinity until after the meeting
was concluded.
Among those who spoke in the hall was
Herr Bebel who was received with tu-
multuous cheers His address occupied
only sixteen minutes In delivery. He de-
picted the distressed condition OF the Ger
man artisans and suggested measures for
their betterment. Emperor William, he
said, had once promised a deputation OF
workmen to aid their handicrafts as far
as possible in regaining the Goldenden
boden of yOre To bring about such
condition was impossible for any emperor
king. 1t could only be achieved by So
ciety in its entirety. The socialists. he
added, did not seek to reintroduce mediae-
val conditions in the handicrafts, but TO
continue on the road of progress, to or
ganize and combine and to joyfuily ana
energetically night to triumphant con-
clusiOn
Herr Bebel denounced the policy OF pro-
lection, which, he declared, was only boil
stored by capitalism.
Upon the conclusion OF his speech Herr
Bebel was greeted with cheers that lasted
for many minutes, after which the meet
ing quietly dispersed.
Herr NQllmars Illness prevented his at
tending the congress.
There Is a strong force Of police I'm the
streets, but nobody anticipates that there
Will be any trouble.
