to be led astray."
GERMANY PLEASED.
Subtraction at the Result of the Elec-
ton Except Among Bimetallists.
The result Of the election in the United
States was received throughout Germany
with great satisfaction except by the bi-
metailists.
high official Of the foreign office said:
THE government is pleased with the re-
suit, and congratulates the American peo-
pie on Kidding themselves for good of an
incubus and danger of financial upheaval
which would follow the unset.ling Of sound
currency. All civilized nations will profit
by the outcome of the elec tions. especially
Germany, owing to the intimate import
ant commercial and economic relations
with the United States"
DIR. Arend. editor Of the Deutsch. Woch-
eschrift, and a prominent bimetalist lead
er. in an interview said:
Il have heard the news with unfcigned
sorrow. The defeat of the silver movement
in the United States will undoubtedly react
unfavorably upon the bimetallic movement
In Germany and the rest of Europe. 1 shall
not despair 1t shall not long be deferred"
The Berlin newspapers yesterday morning
had no news regarding The resul. OF the
election. with the single exception Of the
Lokal Anzefger, in which there are five
lines announcing Maj. Mckinley's .ictory,

Stocks generally rose.
The Tageblatt says: "A nightmare has
fallen from the breast of lhe whole civilized
world. Never before has an election in
spired similar interest. Severe Judgment
has been executed upon the democratic
party because it was unfai.hful to its prin-
c1pleS. The result was awaited anAioUsly
by all believing in the future and progress
OF democratic institutions. Sryan's vic
Tory would have been celebrated by the
enemies of popular liberty throughout the
world, and Mckinleys victory decides in
favor of those who believe in the ability
OF nations to govern themselves. The
American people has again shown itself
worthy Of its traditions. Mckinley means
a restitution Of security. 1t is true that
the shadow of his narrow-minded tariff
pohcy threatens to darken the victory, but
we nope ne VIII not repeat the error while

Inc Hamburgischer Correspondent re-
marks: Europe, and Germany in particu-
lar. Will hail the election OF Mckinley with
satisfaction, since it is sure that the foun-
dation of regular commercial intercourse
and the stability of the currency will
thereby be maintained"
Continuing. the Hamburgischer Cores
pohoent says 1t does not expect that Nc
hlnley's policy will lead to an Improvement
OF the relations between the United States
and Europe. and also expresses the belief
tnat the silver agitation will not be de-
stroyed by one blow.
The Boersenhalle of Hamburg approves
OF the result as being In the interests of
trade. and says 1t does not fear an extreme
protection policy.

unheard-of misery to their country. A cor

lie, while the foreign nations will eXpcr-

The Vossische Zeitung of Berlin says:
1.-The downfall of the American silyerites
means the downfall of the German silver
ties"
The Neueste Nachrichten remarks: "Just
as the democrats during Cleveland's rcgi-
me did not abolish the protective tariff, but
only slightly lowered it, now the republi-
cans will not restore the Mckinley teriff
They must obey the wishes of the .nf1uen-

The Volks Zeitung states: 1.-THE result of
the election will lead to a general desire
upon the part Of European exporters to
hasten the accumulation in America Of the
largest possible mass of wares before the
new Congress makes the tariff prohibitive
The victory of Mckinley Is thus an evil;
but it is the lesser Of the two. A com
mercial crisis will result. but 1t will not be
so disastrous as currency crisis. The
tariff, If found to be Injurious, can be
abolished. But to substitute bad for good
money would have Influenced the world for
decades"
Comment in Vienna.
The Vienna Neue Erie Presse, comments
ing today on the result of the election in
the United States, says: "It is doubt
full If Mckinley will be able to continue the
protective policy, since he was elected by
both protectionists and free traders. Nc
Kiniey's victory is to the advantage of all
civilized peoples. His defeat would hoye
meant the beginning of a social confusion
which would scarcely have been confined
to America"
The Fremdenblatt says: "The defeat of
the silverites was so severe that 1t has per-
manently killed their chances"
The Tageblatt says: THE result is re-
assuring for the whole world"
