THE CHANCELLOR of GERMANY
VISITS THE CAPITOL OF
FRANCE.
THE VISIT KEPT A SECRET.
OF ALL KINDS ARE
AFLOAT. -
A POLITICAL MISSION SUSPECTED.
Into the Combina tion Against
AgSressiOns OF England.

PARIS, April 9.-Prince Hohenlohe mr.
rived here on Monday. His visit is said be
in connection with some property which his
wife inherited in France. In view OF the
shifting course of political events and n
general belief that e. readjustment of
European relations is just now going on. the
visit Of the German chancellor would be
bound to give rise to comment. The mys.
terious manner of the visit, and the fact that
the presence of Prince Hohenlohe in the
French capital should have been a profound
secret from Monday till Thursday appeals to
the public with sensational interest. The
attitude assumed by Germany toward the
Nile expedition, manifested by her consent
as one Of the guaranteeing powers to the
use of the Egyptian debt surplus for defray-
ing its cost, was a profound disappointment
to France. Germany's openly expressed anti
pathy to Great Britain, and her bitter re-
sentiment Of British aggression in the Trans
vaal as well as desire manifested in several
instances by the German government for
more cordial relations with Russia, had led
France to count upon German opposition to
Nile basin. These hopes are appreciably re-
vived by the publication Of the news of
Prince Hohenlohe's visit, and a hundred
stories are afoat tonight that the chancellor
comes on a political mission instead Of on
private business, and that he has had con-
ferences with members Of the French govern
ment regarding the attitude of France to-
h.
Immediately to the Nile expedition and
ultimately to the desire of France for the
British evacuation of Egypt.

HIS EQUITY GONE.
Peculiar Case Which Judge Jamison
Decided.

Decided.
Judge Jamison filed his decision Yesterday "
in case which is rather unprecedented and
one which has troubled him not a little in ar
irving at decision. In speaking of the mat
ter, he stated that it seemed too bad that there
were cases where law and equity could not ap-
pear to go hand in hand, but in his decision
ne has adhered strictly to the law and what
ever the results, he knew there was no other
course.
The question to decide grew out of the fam
1ly troubles between the Bass lake Wagners
Wllhelmina Wagner, before Huldrich Wagner
married her, owned a life estate in the Bass
lake property. At that time the future looked
Drlght, and there was no cloud in the domes-
TIC horizon, so Huldrich went on putting his
labor on the farm and erecting buildings. etc.
until the property became quite valuable
Matters went on all right until there came
certain family jars when Huldrich saw that
MS wife was intending to secure a divorce
from him. Then he brought an action in
court, seeking to keep possession of the prom
erty on account of what he had placed thereon.
lie mad made the property valuable. and he
wanted to have what he had put in there.
Judge Jamison holds that he has no relief
Inc wife has the property as life estate. and
she can hold it and the improvements as far
as the law goes. Now the wife has actually
begun her suit for divorce, and HuIdricb has
lhtlmated that he will sell off some of the i'm
provements Therefore the wife has brought
an ACTON asking for an injunction to prevent

Simple settlement of Dispute

The difficulties between Watson Bros, Moses
L. Cohen and H. Huchthausen have all been
amicably adjusted outside of court and yes
terday afternoon a stipulation Of dismissal was
filed in the clerks Office, in which the matter
is settled for all time. The trouble arose over
$500 gold bond, which was flashed before the
Watson Bros. for a loan of $685. After Hucht-
hansen had secured the money, however he
took the bond away with him and pawned it
with Cohen. The trouble was over the pos
session of the bond, and the sheriff was called
in to assist in the dispute. The bond was
sold by stipulation to the first National bank
for $575, Cohen received $75, the Watsons re-
ceived their claim and Huchthausen received
the balance,

America" Within the casket were
found not only bones, but silver plate
inscribed with the name and dignities

Columbus Is supposed to have received
during one of his campaigns in Africa,
This discovery Of course created a
great sensation in Santo Domingo. lin
Havana and old Spain. The Royal
academy sent out commission to in
vestigate, which Of course reported in
favor Of Cuba. and a local council sat
on the remains, which declared unhes-
itatingly in support of the claims of
Santo Domingo. All the island was in
a ferment, pilgrimages were made to
the cathedral as to shrine of holy
land, and devotees fought for frag-
ments Of the stone slap that had COW
cred the casket, and treasured them
as sacred relics. The conviction final
ly crystalliZed into certitude in Santo
Domingo, and it would now be danger
Gus for any visitor to assert that any
doubt whatever could by any means
exist
The Dominicans will show today the
open vault from which the casket was
taken, close beside 1t the other empty
one from which the fragments were
removed in 1875, the casket now in
closed within case of satin wood

that the ashes taken to Havana were
those Of Don Diego, son Of the great
Columbus, and to the counter claim CT
the Havanese they contemptuously re-
ply: "Show us your bones We have
more bones and in a better state of
preservation, and what is more they
are all labeled"
The only way out of the difficulty
seems to be that suggested by an amia-
bic old lady of Santo Domingo, who
said that perhaps Columbus left two
skeletons behind" but neither party
will admit 1t. The inha bitants of both
Havana and Santo Domingo strenuous
ly assert that their cathedral only
contains the "only legitimate bones'
of the great Columbus, and in defense
of this assertion they are willing to
fight to the death if need be-
The president of Santo Domingo is
valiant man, and is said to sympa-
thize with the Cuban insurgents If
the latter wish to enlist his active sup
port, they have only to declare in
favor of his claim, and when they shall
have obtained possession of Havana
deliver up the supposititious remains,
and thus settle the vexed question
forever. 1t is this contingency which
now vexes the antiquaries of Cuba's
capital, and it may be safely asserted
that during the panic of the past few
weeks, when other and less patriotic
citizens were lamenting the increase
of prices and possible loss of property,
they were thinking of the greater loss
Of prestige involved in the transfer Of
these sacred remains.

the controversy, but am compelled to
refrain from expressing an opinion
because Of the censorship now so rig
orously exercised over all matters
where the honor or glory of Spain is
involved. Felix Imray.

was thought by some to be preferable. The
question was also discussed whether 1t would
be better for the board to select the richest

would be more advisable to take average

TRANSACTION LEGITIMATE.
Receiver Hale Makes Answer in an
Irish-American Bank Suit.

w. D. Hale, receiver of the American
Savings and Loan association, filed his
answer late last evening in the action brought
by the assignee of the Irish American bank
to recover possession of the securities held
by the association in security for the deposit.
The answer recites that, when the bank
failed, the association had on deposit with the
bank $780, 140.26, which was evidenced by
certificate of deposit. 1t is denied that the
securities were given to the association for
the purpose of making a preference or de-
frauding creditors, but that in the usual
course of business they were handed over as
regular mercantile security, apparently by
solvent corporation, for the purpose of
curing the deposit to use. 1t is also alleged
that the securities are not of the value Of
$146, ,443 as alleged, but that they are of no
more value than the sum of $4,000. De-
fendant asks for Judgment and costs.

DERvIsHEs DEMORALIZED.
RumOr Tells of an Aiiiance Between
MeneIek and the -Mahdf.


MASSOWAI, April lS-Col Stevani tele-
graphs that the dervishes VINO have hovered
about Cassala are demoralized by the attacks
Of the garrison Of that place, and have aban-
doned Tucruf leaving their wounded. in addi-
ton to mules and quantity of grain. There
is report that Menelek, Italys late success
full antagonist at Adowa, has sent a delegate
to negotiate with the dervishes. An alliance
between the Abyssinians and the dervishes
would upset many calculations.
During the former occupation by the En-
glish Of the Soudan, Menelek proved himself
a valuable and reliable ally to them. On this
account 1t has been believed that Menelek and
the Mahdi were not likely to enter into an
alliance, although the dervishes were expected
to avail themselves Of the reverse admins
tered by the Abyssinians upon the Italians,
to advance against Cassala, as proved to be
the case. But the political exigencies of the
case seems to have overcome Meneleks relig-
ious antipathies If the report be true that he
is negotiating with the deryishes to make COM
mon cause with them. They have in common
their antagonism to the italians, and England
has avowed the purpose of the Nile expedition
to be to assist Italy against the reverse she
has sustained at the hands of Menelek.

NEW YORK, April 9.-Senator David B.
Hill arrived in town last night. Mr.. Hill
talked freely on various subjects, including
the Raines law, but he would not say whether
he would be candidate for the presidency
There are 80 many candidates, you know
he said. The senator was equally non-com-
initial about the Republican party, but said: :
There is nothing in the statement that 1 am
to take charge of the Democratic campaign in
New York state. Nothing has been done yet,
and cannot just say when the state conven-
tion will be held" The senator then turned
to the Raines law. "The Raines law he
said, 'is, I see, causing a great deal of talk
here, and I'm not astonished. The law is ab-
solutely intolerable People have been talk
ing about taking the saloons out of politics.
Why, this bill hands them over absolutely to
one party. I am opposed to high license, but
a high license might have something good
about It, However, under this law it is a
matter of plunder. The bill which I vetoed
when I was governor was a most excellent
and admirable measure-liberality itself COM
pared with the Raines law"
