ton i'm the United States was received
throughout Germany with great satgiac-
ton except by the bimetallists.
A high official of the Foreign Office said:
1.-The government is pleased with the result
and congratulates the American people on
Kidding themselves for good of an incubus
and danger of a financial upheaval which
would follow the unsettling Of sound cur
rency. All civilized nations will profit by
the outcome of the election, ard especially
Germany. owing to the intimate important
commercial and economic relations with
the United States"
DR.. Otto Aredal. editor of the Deutsche
Wochenschrift, and a prominent bimetal-
list leader, in an interview said: Il have
heard the news with unfeigned sorrow.
The defeat of the silver movem mt in the
United States will undoubtedly react TN
favorably on the bimetallic movement in
Germany and the ~eSt IF Europe. Still /
do not despair. 1t will not be long de-
ferred."
The German newspapers This :LoI ming had
no news regarding the result of the election
with the single exception Of TIE Lokal
Anzeiger, in which there are five lines
announcing Major McKinley's victory. and
tonight many of the papers haze no edi-
torials on the subject. The Stock Ex-
change. however. was i~u5ilant, AMI keenly

rose.
The TageblaN this afternoon says: "A
nightmare has fallen from the treast of
the civilized world. Never before an cleo
ton inspired similar interest. Bitter judg-

tory would have been celebrated by the
enemies of popular Liberty throughout the
world, and Mckinley's victory decides in
favor of those who believe in the ability of
nations to govern themselves. The Ameri-

of its traditions. Mckinney means a resti-

The Hamburger Correspondent remarks
this afternoon: 'EuTope, drd Germany in

it also expresses the belief that the silver
agitation will not be destroyed by enc blow.
The Boersenhalf. OF Hamburg. approves
of the result as being in the interests of
trade and says it does not fear an extreme
protection policy.
The Cologne Gazette this afternoon re-
marks: "Mckinleys energies have been
purified by the hard fight of the last few
months as the representative OF honest cur

circumstances which brought him into this
position may keep him from a relapse to
