GERMANY'S TARIFF GRoWL.
PROTEST KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN
FORWARDED TO THE AM
BASsADOR.

state Department OmcinIs DENY
That They Have Received a Copy
of IL as Net-The Protest Follows
the General Lines of the One Made
in 1894 Respecting Discriminating
Sugar Duties i'm the Wilson Bin
The Present Protest Said TO Rest
On Untenable Ground.
Washington, April 9.-The state depart
ment continues to deny the reports that
the German government has submitted a
protest against the tariff BILL but wheth-
err 1t has been received or not, 1t is known
definitely that such a protest has been
forwarded by the German ambassador.
Baron Won Thielmann, acting on cable in,
structions from Berlin. These instruc-
lions were received early this week and
the ambassador promptly submitted the
protest
Inc protest follows the general lines of
that of Aug. IS. 1894, presented by Baron
Saurma, the then German ambassador, to
Secretary Gresham. respecting discrimi-
mating sugar duties in the Wilson bill.
The essential ground OF protest is that
81 aus uHl' 1891, secretary OF state roster,
and the German charge daffairs, Mr.. Won
Mumm. entered into an agreement at Sar-
atoga, N. Y, providing that importatlons
of American pork into Germany should
not be hindered or Disseminated against,
and that importations of German sugar
into the United States should not be dis
eliminated against.
The protest declares that the proposed
discriminatory duty on sugar would be OPP
posed to that agreement and that in such
case Germany would consider the agree
ment void throughout and would act ac-
cordingly.
Several of the other foreign representa-
tives to the United States have submitted
representations respecting the tariff bill,
but none of them was quite so strong in
protest as that of Germany. When the
Foster-von Mumm agreement was called
to the attention of officials of the United
States conversant with its negotiation
the statement was made that that agree
ment had long ago gone out of existence
1t was based, the officials stated. on the
reciprocity clause of the Mckinley law
and was not to be effective as against
subsequent enactments of congress
The Wilson tariff law disregarded the
agreement which. 1t is said, became in
operative thereafter Under these circum-
stances it is held that the Foster-von
Mumm agreement can in no way serve as
an effective basis of protest at the present
time.

WORKING on TUE TARIFF.
senate Committee Won't Report the
Bill Under Two Weeks.


Washington, April 9.-The republican
senators, who are acting as a sub-commit-
tee of the Senate committee on finance in
the preparation of the tariff bill. is in
clined in their estimates now to postpone
the date of its presentation to the Senate
a little beyond the limit originally fixed
by them. They express the opinion that
1t may he two weeks from the present
time before the bill will be in shape to be
reported. Some of them postpone the
time until two weeks from next Monday
The committee is making very satisfac-
tory progress with the bill and many of
the schedules have received final atten-
ton, among these being chemicals and
cotton. None of the more pulling ques-
tons, however, have been disposed of. The
committee has deemed it wisest to leave
the rates on wool. sugar, hides, coal, lead,
ore, lumber and all the other particularly
puzzling subjects until the simpler mat
tiers can be determined. Many of the
smaller items, accordingly, have been de-
termined upon
While no detailed information can be Sc
cured it is understood that many reduc-
tions in duties have been made. The dis
position of the committee is to make a
quite general reduction but this is found
TO be task not easy of accomplishment
because of the insistence of senators upon
having the strongest protection for the ar
ticles in which they are particularly in
terested. There are, indeed, many de-
mands for increases. and some of these
are so pressing that the members of the
committee are finding themselves consld-
erably embarrassed between their desire
to satisfy senator's whose votes will be cs-
sential to the success of the bill, and their
conviction that the interests of the party
demand a reduction rather than an in
crease.

CAT-LIkE LUCK IN CRIME.
A Girl Pursuing a Man Who Wrong
ed Her But Cant Convict Him.


Atlanta. Ga, April 9-For the fourth
time since the mock marriage with Miss
Mary Wingate, which vas the beginning
of his troubles, Charlie Mitchell, a gay
young lothario, well-known about town.
who was on trial for abandonment, es-
capped from the clutches of the law to-day
Since Mitchell fooled his victim into be-
lieveing that he had married her she has
pursued him relentlessly in the courts for
vengeance sake. First Mitchell was tried
for seduction, and came clear upon the
defense of marriage
Then the wronged girl and her family
went into another court and brought him
to trial for bigamy and strange to say
in this case Mitchell's luck stood him in
such good fortune that he escaped again
by setting up an alleged marriage with
the girl and precluded her testimony in
the case against him.
He was brought into court upon the
further charge of bastardy, but although
it was not disputed that he was the father
of the little one produced in evidence, he
third time got off on a technicality
To-day Mitchelrs cat like luck brought
him clear upon the plea of jurisdiction
when the injured girl had him arraigned
for abandonment of his child. Just at
the point when it seemed that she was al
last about to get the clutches of the law
upon the man whom she holds responsible
for the ruin of her life, his attorneys de-
veloped the fact that the alleged abandon
ment occurred in Merriwether county, and
he was again turned loose, while his vic
tim is still crying for his punishment.
MitchelPs case is one of the most remarka-
BILE on the criminal records of the courts.

CRUISER VEsTVfUs RETURNS.
She and the Boutwell, Lying at the
Mouth of the st. Johns.

Jacksonville, Fla, April 9.-The dyna-
mite cruiser Vesuvius and the revenue
cutter Boutwell, are reported as lying at
anchor off Mayport, al the mouth of the
St Johns river. Both vessels left here
Thursday afternoon for the bar. A report
was circulated that they were outward
bound to catch the famous Bermuda, and
the story is generally believed, but after
cruising about outside they returned to
the neighborhood of the bar and cast an
Choir, to ride out the storm that has just
passed. The Boutwells captain thought
it prudent to enter the river, while the We
suvius rides at anchor several miles off
shore
The Spanish are still very active in the
city using the wires hourly to report to
Senior Dupuy de LONE at Washington.
They say the last move of Uncle Sam
ships prevented a very large expedition.

ION in tow. The Jones was suspected of
being connected with the attempted expe-
dition out of Fernan dina that was stopped
a few days ago by the Vesuvious and the
Boutwell, Capt. Adkins of the Jones re-
Icrts that he left Fernandina this morn
ing at 1920 o'clock.
