STORMY SCENE.
TT OCCURRED IN THE REICHsTAG
YESTERDAY.
1t Arose Through u Socialist Member
Making Charges Against DIR. Carl
Peters.

LONDON, March. ia special dis
patch from Berlin to the Times des-
cribes a stormy scene in the reiChstag.
It arose through Herr Bebel. one Of
the Socialist leaders, accusing DR.. Carl
Peters, the African explorer, while he
was imperial commissioner in Africa
IN 1891, with causing a negro and
negress to be hanged, without trial, to
the nearest tree, because they had
taken a fancy to each other, of which
DR.. Peters being himself intimate with
the negress, disapproved. The Ger
man officer refused to execute the
sentence. Nevertheless the sentence
was executed.
DR.. Peters proclaimed officially that
the negroes were hanged as spies
After that the English bishop, Tucker,
declined to receive DR.. Peters, saying
he would have nothing to do with a
murderer
DR.. Peters thereupon wrote to Bishop
Tucker contending that he was married
to the negress according to the African
custom, and therefore had a right to
put her to death for adultery.
Dr. Kayser, director of the colonial
department, in. reply to Herr Bebel,
expressed doubts whether African
travellers could be Judged according to
European standards. He tried to mol
lily the house by referring to Hermann
Wissmans spotIess character but, al
though he gave a long explanation to
the effect that an investigation had
shown that the negroes We're guilty Of
theft and other. offenses, and that Dr..
Peters could not be incrimiDated, he
failed to satisfy the house
DR.. Kayser then said further that
the government desired the facts, but
it was difficult to pass judgment in
such cases. It had been intended to
place DR.. Peters at Tanganyika be
lieving such incidents could not occur
under Wissman. But it was discovered
that DR.. Peters was so unpopular that
he was not appointed.
Dr., Kayser's speech met frequent in
terruptions and shouts of murderer, -
''robber," ''scandalous," etc.

NEW YORK, March 1S.-Richard K.
Fox today produced the following let
ter from George W. Atkinson, of the
Sporting Life, accompanied by the ar
ticles of agreement:
LONDON, Feb. rs, 1896
Dear Mr.. Fox-If Corbett Az
Fitzsimnlons sign the enclosed agree
ment, it will be satisfactory to the
National Sporting club. The date can
be arranged by cablegram. Should
they. in addition to the purse. wish to
box for side stakes, add the amount.
Yours faithfully,
GEORGE w ATKINSON.
''P. S.-Any other matter can be set
tied by cablegram and you can have
reply within two houre."
Fox says he is perfectly satisfied the
articles were sent by Atkinson with the
authority of the National Sporting
club. After reading the cablegram
denying that the club had offered a
purse or sent articles of agreement, Fox
calbled London for particulars.

people 1851. 900. 900 Secretary Carlisle
had recently, in a speech, proclaimed
himself for gold. There was no further
effort to disguise the issue behind
sound money" which meant
ABSOLUTE GOLD MoNoMETAL-
LISM.
st ? o'clock the regular order was
laid aside in order to permit Mr.. Cock
rell to proceed. The galleries had
wearied waiting for the Cuban de-
bate and the crowd gradually thinned
out
AIr. Cockren spoke of the timidity of
gold as money and referred to the agi-
tation cased by President Cleveland's
message with a string tied to it. mat
message made the whole country tren1-
bic, and the press of New York de-
claPed that 500, 100000 had been lost IN
consequence.
The senator declared that the DEM
ecratic party could not be divided on
the silver question. 1t was the pillar
of fire by night. the great constitution
al beacon OF the Democratic party, the
one on which all its victories had been
won. and those who opposed 1t would
slough off from the party, but would
not divide it.
MI Cockrell was particularly severe
on what he termed the "flimsy preteXt
and stuff which Secretary Carlisle
offered in his speeches in support of the
gold standard.
The senator compared Mr.. Carlisle
recent views with those expressed be-
fore he was dined and wined by the
Rothschilds and Belmonts and bond
brokers of Wall street and Lombard
street" Referring to the international
monetary conference Mr.. Cockrel said
it was
DEGRADING AND HUMILIATING
proposition Every self respecting ma
ton had established its own financial
system, and this country was the only
one which trailed behind Great Britain
and European countries and beSought
them to come to our relief and eStab-
lish financial system for us. We
threw our Monroe doctrine in the face
of England, and yet we bent the knee
to accept the English gold standard
and to ask their aid in an International
conference.
Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British am
bassador. entered the diplomatic gal
lery while MI. Cockrell was deprecat-
ing the subserviency of this country to
the gold standard influence of England
The senatore declared that we should
continue our time honored adherence
to bimetallism. Then. without appar-
ent intention, Mr. Cockren faced about
toward the diplomatic gallery and con-
Guided: ''Or else let us haul down Old
Glory. hoist the gold standard and cry
out Long Live the Queen of England
and the Empress of India
1t was 4:30 when Mr.. COckrell closed
and as it was apparent that it was too
late to go on with the Cuban question
the senate went into ex ecutive session.
At O'Clock the senate adjourned I'M

NEW YORK, March 13.-James

following letter, which he is investi-
eating and if the project is approved
by his attorneys he will make an offer
for the Corbett-F itzsimmons fight bet

National Sporting club:
James Wakely: Dear Sir-I have for
sale a floating theatre built on very
strong vessel hull. capable eli seating
1,500 people; is fit to go to sea on any
point along the Atlantic coast; would
be just the thing to use for boxing
matches. She could be towed to sea
outside the three mile limit, which
would bring her outside the jurisdic
ton of any country and not amenable
to any law. This is just the thing to
pull off any match with. The theatre
is fitted out complete with stage, gal
lery, private boxes, seats. cafe. living
rooms, bath rooms, etc. She is built
extra strong, so as to stand rough
weather; she cost SAC, 1000; can be bought
now for $4,000. Would like to hear
from you. Yours very truly.

The Herald is very glad to publish the
foregoing statement, and the more be-

cised at the statement touching the price
for the Pioneer property at one time. A
property may sell low by the acreage and
later become worth millions. The same
