THE GREATEST AMERICAN DAILY.

From The Passaic IN. j. Item.
The New-York Tribune became the greatest daily
I'm the United Staes-greatest because Of its truth
fulness-and 1t still can be relied upon for news
strictly accurate. Its moral ard religious train
ing It's efforts in advancing scientific research. its
noble and conscientious teaching for the family
circle. young and old. give this great journal
Justly won prominence.
Since newspapers have become very cheap
and plentiful The New-York Tribune has not lost
its prestige. but stands yet at the head for family
rcadng-for use of those growing up as well as
for their elders In the family circle II The Trib-
une was the only newspaper read in families. IL Is

PRINCE HERBERT EXPRESSES THANKS.

Hamburg. Aug. 3.-The Hamburger Mach

signed by Prince Herbert Bismarck:
The numerous expressions Of deepest Attic
ton and cordial sympathy which testify 10 the
imperishable memory Of my great father are
becoming overwhelming in their extent that
1t appears impossible TO thank the mourners
sngy even to the end of my own life.
From all five continents Of the globe the
sorrow Of the family bowed the coffin
is re-echoed In touching sympathy and 1t
grieves me to be unable to answer every mani
festation OF this feeling l beg the German
newspapers 10 grant space for these words:

Of comfort or fora, tributes from those we have
never seen, have given expression 10 the splen-
dor of sorrow which flIs our land"

GERMANY THANKS AMERICA.

Berlin Aug 3.-Ambassador White sent the
following cable message to-day 70 Washington
IL am requested to convey the sincere thanks
the President and people Of the United States
for their message Of sympathy on the occasion
of the death of Prince Bismarck"
The influx Of kilograms. letters and wreaths al
Friedrichsruh is unceasing. Already the Schloss
oyerflows with wreaths and those arriving later
must now perforce be placed in the garden. 1t
IS asserted that the family assembled at mid
night after the Emperors visit for silent pray
ers in the death chamber. and that then Prince
Herbert locked the room where the body will
remain until a provisional repository is pre-
pared in the park.
The site selected for the mausoleum does not
give universal satisfaction. The North Ger
tention has been directed to the fact that the
site chosen IS in a potato field and close TO n
railway where trains pass almost without inter
mission. one would think the noise Of traffic
must be a disturbing element In the vicinity Of
the Bismarck mausoleum. In the words of the
poet INLAND. the resting place of the dead Is
wont 10 be the abode of silence"
ME Frankfort Gazette" says: I'VE do not
think It could have been In accordance with
the desire OF the departed that his body should
be withdrawn from the presence Of sympathetic
mourning and respect and also from the in
tended tributes Of the highest official Of the
Empire which he founded. and OF the State.

intends to place In the Cathedral an immense

marck in the uniform OF a curassier.
Emperor Williams rescript, which Is believed
to have been written by Professor Koeser di-
rector OF the secret archives. gives universal
satisfaction as fitting expression Of the ma
uonal sentiment and tribute doing His Maj
esty the highest credit. in the face Of the ri,-
mors OF friction between the Bismarck family
and the imperial court Rather an unseemly
wrangle has arisen in the press concerning the
exact causes and circumsa nces of the Princes
death. Doubtless much acrimony would have
been avoided if more courtesy had been shown
the journalists at Freidrichsruh and the fact
that no autopsy was held makes it impossible
to silence scandal-loving tongues. Professor
Virchow, interviewed on the subject declined
to express an opinion on the vague information
available. but said he was disposed to think
that the death of the Prince was painless
According TO the North German Gazette"
three volumes of Bismarcks memoirs are al
ready printed and ready for publication. For
the moment the press discussions are rather
personal than political. but there are indications
that ere long an active controversy will arise
over the letter of resignation and other Bis
mar, kian matters. No member of the family
