LOVE THY NEIGHBoR
Rev. Alfred Clark Applies His Text
to Present Conditions

Rev. Alfred Clark of Christs church
preached yesterday from the text. found
in Matthew xxii:39. Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself."r
Mr.. Clark said in part, as follows:
"A month ago I spoke upon the love
of God which should fill the mind, heart
and SOUL At that time had in mind
its carrelated truth, thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself. / say carre-
lated for the love of God and the love of
man is one in essence. Love must be
all powerful, must fill the being. must
demand the whole of ones energeies and
efforts. The love We bear our fellow
man is the same in essence as our love
for God, but in it's relations the stan
dard by which it is gauged and regulated
is self. Here we find our Lord in touch
with nature, in sympathy with human
ity. Here Christianity is differentiated
and different from all the other beliefs
since the beginning of the world. The
tendency had been to suppress self. Our
Lord took this self the world has sought
to obliterate as the standard by which
we shall measure love for our fellow
man.
1--WE are taught 1t is right for man to
seek his own personal happiness; but
there are limitations to be kept in view,
self love needs a check, and in the de-
claration that we must love our neigh
bor os ourself we find the check, and so
selfishness is eliminated, not by destroy
ing it, but by giving it new outlet.
Humanity has been prompt to recognize
the principle quality at the base of our
nature. and to upraise it to the holiness
of love. In the past many lives have
been great and sacrifices have been
made for others that have gone down
into history as having given all for
others. Neither personal panegyric nor
history of the past has taught to the
many the beauty of self sacrifice. But
this is recognized by Christianity and 1t
should be the ordinary rule of conduct.
not to leave it for friend to do all for
the human race, but each to have
share in the glory for ALL
Mr.. Clark then applied his text to the
question today so serious to the nation,
the relation of labor to capital. The
struggle Is great in the present move
ment on the part of the laborer, and
also on the part of the leaders. We
must recognize not only those who work
with their hands and the capitalists.
but also the middle classes who are
struggling to bring them together. There
have not made sufficient progress in
Christianity to reach the plane our
Lord designed we should do to bring
the kingdom of heaven at hand. AS long
as there is an ideal life to be lived the
Christian should struggle to live it-live
it without hatred, without bloodshed.
without the sword, and in universal
brotherhood of mankind; live with. the
idea of a common destiny for man on
this earth. Love thy neighbor as thy
self and the kingdom of heaven shall be

In Regard to Prosecution of Luetzow and
 Others for Perjury and Libel.
 Berlin, Feb. 5-In the reichstag today the Richter radicals interpellated the government in regard to the prosecution of Baron Won Luetzow and others who were recently convicted of forgery, per- jury and libel and sentenced to various terms of imprisonment,
 Prince Hohenlohe, imperial chancellor, in reply declared that the president of the police, out of whose connection with the scandals had resulted the arrest of Maj. Von Tausch, the chief of the political po- lice, were absolutely necessary despite the fact that the principal member of the body had betrayed the confidence re- posed in him.
 Freiherr Marschall Won Bieberstein, minister of foreign affairs, one of the personages who was libelled by Luetzow and his associates, and at whose instiga- ton they were prosecuted, said that he would act in precisely the sarhe manner again when political antagonists and per- sonal hatred took the form of calumny and libel
 It was his belief that in acting as he did he had served his monarch.
 The remarks of Bieberstein were receiv- ed with cheers.

squadron. When she went out this time she had with her a new locking device for her turrets, lately put on at New York, and which was intended to remedy the trouble she had the last time she put to sea in heavy weather This present de- vice has thirty times the strength of the former one. Very properly the officers of the ship have been cautious and observ- ant as to it's workings and she has re- turned to the roads for a further inspec- tion of 1t and possible re-adjustment. Her former trouble was occasioned to some extent by her rolling in the very heavy sea which she then encountered, and it is possible she again met unusual ly rough seas. When the Indiana and Massachusetts were designed they had on, as is absolutely necessary for them, >bilge keels, but very unfortunately all the docks up to the one just completed at New York were not of sufficient ca- pacity to dock any of these ships with bilge keels, but anticipating the con- struction and finishing of the dock at New York, the department some time ago ordered bilge keels to be made ready for all of these ships, and such keels will be placed in position as soon as possi- ble.
 ::Great Britain had a similar experi- ence with her battleships. Before such keels were put on, the cause of the reso- lution being we'll known to the profess sion all over the world.

NOMINATIONS HELD UP.

Presidential Preferences For Postmaster
 to a Large Number Still in Hand.
 Washington, Feb 5.-For two or three
 executive sessions recently the postofice
 committed of which MT. Chandler is
 acting chairman, has been criticised for
 holding up nominations. MT. Chandler
 says that in all cases where the senators
 from therstate= have been able to agree or where there has been no injustice done,
 the nominee has been reported without
 undue delay.
 | A count of the nominations show that
 there are stflI with the committee a total
 of 1855 nominations that have been re- ported and of these eighty-five are ofi- ces that have ereeentlNi become presi- dential by promotion from fourth class owing to increased receipts of the office. In almost all of these cases the presi- dent has nominated the incumbent and republicans say that if he were again confirmed the official would be given a term of eight years which would, they argue, be unfair. In some cases also the nominees have been named to succeed men who have been removed. Among the nominations I,held up are those for the following offices:
 South Carolina--Beaufort. Virginia-Cape Charles, Manasses, Or ange. IsS%s t.ssi .osr- .ils-

SIR MICHAEL HICKS BEACH Stirs Up a Large-Sized Hornets
 Nest. STRONG ANTl-FRENCH TONE Noticed In His Remarks As to the Anglo
 Egyptian Expedition. HE ASKED FOR 78o,oOO POUNDS To Meet the Expense and Declared Brittany Would Not Be Worried By Out siders-Regret at His Speech
 Expressed.
HE ASKED FOR 7so,ooo POUNDS

London, Feb. 5.-In the house of com mons today Sir Michael Hicks Beach. chancellor of the exchequer, announced that a further advance of Egyptian troops would be made toward Khartoum next season. As regarded the action of the Egyptian tribunals, Sir Michael Hicks Beach Continued, Great Britain would not be worried from her policy when her mind was made up. He then moved a resolution granting the sum of f79S,000 sterling to meet the total cost of the An glo-Egyptian expedition to Dongola in- cluding the maintenance of the garrison at Suakim and elsewhere in the Sudan and the Indian troops in Egypt which Great Britain would pay.
 The action of the mixed court of ap- peals in upsetting the judgment of the Egyptian public debt commission in re- gard to setting aside certain Egyptian funds towards the expense of the Don- gola expedition, he said, was calculated to prolong British occupation of Egypt. Great Britain had advanced the money to pay EgyptS share of the expenses, leav- ing Great Britain and Egypt to mutually decide when the sum should be repaid.
 John Morley liberal said that the re- marks of the chancellor of the exchequer amounted to a challenge to France and Russia to take issue with Great Britain in the latter's Egyptian policy. In view of the sensitive condition of Europe at the present time he declared nothing more rash could be uttered.
 Sir Charles Dilke, liberal, denounced the Egyptian policy of the government. Sir William Harcourt, the leader of the opposition, expressed regret at the un- wise language and gratuitous provoca- tion of the powers which characterized the remarks of Sir Michael Hicks Beach.
 MT. George N. Curzon, under foreign secretary, sought to minimize the effect of Sir Michaers language and denied that it was in any way intended as menace of France.
 MT. Henry M. Stanley, the African ex- plorer, member for North Lambert said that Great Britain was only doing in Egypt what Russia was doing in Siberia alad France was doing between the Sene- gal and the Niger rivers in Africa. After some further discussion the reso- fution submitted by Sir Michael was adopted by a vote of 169 to 57.
 In the lobby of the house there was much comment upon the anti-French tone of Sir Michael Hicks Beach and sur prise was expressed by a number of mem- bers that he should have spoken as he did.
 The speech was thought to have such significance that the full text was tele- graphed to Paris this evening.

AN EXPLANATION
Offered by the Navy Department In Ref ierence to. the Battleship Indiana.
 Which Put of Hatteras.

Washington, Feb. 5.-What may be rep
 :gnominious failure of one of the crack vessels of the new navy receives an ex-
 planation which navy officers of experi- ence regard as satisfactory. The return of the battleship Indiana to Hampton Roads today, after having been at sea with Admiral Bunco's squadron, scarcely twenty four hours, was due to the same
 turrets which got loose in a storm last fall when Capt. Evans commanded the ship in evolutions off Long Island. On that occasion the big guns projecting I from the turrets swung back and forth
 across the deck as the ship keeled over "a cross the deck as the ship keeled over on her beam ends in the sea, and the great lest fears were felt that the magnificent
 vessel would turn turtle," as the sailors expressed it, and go down with all hands .Capt Evans hove her to and lashed the
 guns temporarily, which enabled him to
 reach port, and then several months
 were spent at the navy yard in trying ite remedy the defect. Capt. Evans was \ succeeded in command by Capt. Taylor
 formerly of the war college, and yester- day was Capt. Taylor's first experience
 for some time in an armored ship that
 has earned a reputation for wallowing
 and it is understood that the long rollers
 following the recent heavy gale made themselves felt on the ship when the fleet
 got off Hatteras If she had not been re-
 stricted to squadron formation Capt
 Taylor might have headed his course into
 the seas, but as the New York, with her high free board and notable stability, was setting the course, and as the, Indiana could not safely stay with the fleet, she
 was permitted to return. If her turrets had broken loose, off Hatteras. the ship might have been lost. The navy Eepart- meilt gave out the following regarding
 the matter this afternoon: ss, M .sThe Indiana returned today to Hamp-
 ton Roads, having made a run with the
