4 AS''' oe1eSu A40uA ASuoA uus t1u giving q
verbatim interview with Bismarck on
the Spanish-American war, in which the
German statesman was represented ais
"condemning the war outright" and at
tributing 1t to systematic American
provocation, which finally became un-
bearable," and stating that "the whole
course of the Washington administra-
ton has been insincere." OF course,
the great American dailies devoted
leading articles to the purported inter-
view and those Of them in favor of an
Anglo-Amerlcan alliance dilated On the
marked difference in tone between the
interviews Of British statesmen and the
Teutonic diplomatic. The dispatch was
conceived in the brain of an unprincipled
agent of the Associated Press, and now
comes Count Rantzau, the son-;n-law
of Bismarck, who brands it as forgery
in signed statement from his pen. The
Chicago Inter Ocean refers to 1t in the
following manner:
Though copyrighted by the Associat-
ed Press, displayed far and wide by the
deluded patrons of that institution, and
discussed on hundreds of editorial pages
from Boston to San Francisco, the inter-
view was merely pack of falsehoods
put together in ignorance or malice by
Melville E. Stones cable liar in New
York city. 1t was intended to deceive
the people of the United States at the
most serious crisis in their recent his
tory, and, up to the present time, it has
done SO. 1t was calculated to dis
courage them in the conduct of the war,
and to embitter them against country
which has given us millions of our best
citizens. 1t was fraud upon the Amer
lean public, and swindle upon those
newspaper proprietors who buy the As
ISOLATED Press service in the belief that
they are receiving genuine cable dis
patches and not the cheap product of the
New York cable liars imagination.
In this city the forged interview was
published by every Associated Press
newspaper The Times Herald stulti-
fed itself by displaying it in black
border on its front page. Having thus
deceived its readers, it has refused to
undeceive them. Although Count Rant
zaG's reputation of the interview was
published by the New York Herald of
last Friday, and although the Times
Herald learned this fact by reason of it's
connection with the New York Herald,
it has not printed the same. To bolster
up the failing reputation OF the Associ-
ated Press, it prefers to print lies and
stand by them rather than to tell the
truth. The rest of the trust press shows
tho same preference. Any journal
which will be party to such swindle
upon the public is not whit better
than the lying news agency whose ser
vice it accepts. Every newspaper which
printed the forged interview and has
refused to expose the forgery is fully as
recreant to every trust reposed in it by
the public as the incompetent and cor
rupt organization which it consents to
support for the benefit of Victor F. Law
son, Melville z. Stone, and their ac-
completes in the news trust conspiracy
against the American people.

An Anglo-Saxon poet gleefully sings:
And soon the world will hear a song

While millions join the rally;
And Yankee Doodle will awake
Your English meadows green,
While Yankee tongues from sea to lake
Will sing God Save the Queen"

1T must be admitted that so far as we
have come in contact with our Spanish
foes, we have no reason to complain
either OF their lack Of courage and en-
terprise in combat, Or Of their chiylary
and courtesy in truce. 1t is possible
that we have good many false ideas of
Spaniards, as they have of Americans.

THE MoULDERs' TROUBLES
There May Be Strike Before the End Of
the Week.

There Is no prospect of an immedi-
ate settlement of the moulders' trouble
at the foundries of William Allen &
Sons and Prespey Pero In fact, radi-
cal steps will be taken by the union
men this week.
Joseph Valentine, first vice-p president
of the International Moulders' Union
of Cincinnati, is now on his way to
Worcester, and 1t is hoped that he will
be present at the meeting of the union
this evening.
A letter was received Saturday by
the corresponding secretary Of the
Moulders' Union, stating that Mr.
Valentine left Cincinnati Sept. 20 for
this city.
In the meantime affairs have taken a
more serious turn at the Allen foundry
and it is not at all improbable that
the moulders will go out before the end
of the week.
A Spy reporter was told yesterday by
union man that the Allen firm had
receded from the agreement which II
made at the time w. A. Perrine OF the
New York conference board was here,
and that Allen & Sons went around to
the mouders last Friday and said that
only S2.25 per day would be paid in
stead of the demanded minimum rate
of 81. so. The moulders were in no way
pleased with the state Of affairs before
this schedule was adopted, and the
union will object strenuously to work
ing for $2.25 per day, The moulders
hold their regular weekly meeting this
evening, and if Mr.. Valentine is pres
ent, the moulders will be told at once
what to do. A union man told a Spy
reporter recently that since the core
makers went out on a strike at the
Allen foundry, the new force of core
makers were obliged to work until mid
night every night and all day Sunday.
He said that at the PPespey Pero
foundry affairs were in still worse
condition, and that Prespay Pero and
his two sons were making cores them
selves.
The coremakers are not at all discon-
certed at the actions Of the two firms,
and all Of those who went out on a
strike have obtained positions in other
foundries.
The moulders are not working full
time at the Pero foundry, and at both
foundries the moulders claim that the
coremakers' strike is loss to the firms
as the work in those departments Is
unsatisfactory.

PASTOR AND PEOPLE.
Rev. Mr.. Mallory Explains Their Relations
at Dewey Street.

Rev. Mr.. Mallory Explains Their Relations
at Dewey Street.
The largest congregation that has
gathered in Dewey Street Baptist
Church for many years greeted Rev.
o. E. Mallory at the morning service
yesterday, when he entered upon his
duties as pastor of the church.
The pulpit was adorned with choice
flowers and plants, and the manner in
which the congregation greeted their
new pastor spoke well for his future
work in their midst.
Rev. Mr. Mallory is forceful speak
er of persuasive manner and com
handing presence.
AT the morning service, he spoke of
the relation of pastor to people, taking
his text from 2 Corinthians, liza, mot
for that we have dominion over your
faith but are helpers of your joy
In the course of his sermon, the
preacher said Coercion in matters Of
religious faith is neither Christian nor
Pauline. Paul here gives us the re-
lation of the pastor to the people and
reveals the law for all time. There
is negative and a positive side to this
statement The pastor is not a doni-
neer, but helper. Dominion in mat
ters of religion only letters and weak
ems men. Gods word and providence
teach US in divine responsibility. The
apostle recognizes this fact in the dec
laration of the text.
On the positive side of this relation,
Paul declares that we are to be help
ers of their joy. Joy is a divine word.
1t differs from happiness. 1t is the
well-spring in the human soul opened
by the might and power of God. The
helper therefore must understand the
case of those whom he helps in their
state Of nature and state of grace.
The true helper must be a man of
compassion and sympathy. He who
helps in soul-life must WELD the truth
We can reach the consciences of men
only with the truth. Some men can
make quite a blaze out of light fuel,
but we must have substance if we burn
men.
The helper must be able to WELD the
truth in the power Of the spirit, for
preaching the gospel is nc dress pa
rade. 1t is a high calling to be a soul
helper; work that angels might
covet.
At the evening service he spoke Of
the relation of people to pastor. He
took his text from Deuteronomy 1888,
Encourage him, for he shall cause
Israel to inherit it." He said in part:
We may encourage the pastor by
sustaining the preaching of a plain,
unadulterated gospel. We may encour-
age him by living the truth he teaches.
We may encourage him by holding
him in our prayers.
On October 16, Rev. Mr.. Mallory will
begin a series of sermons TO young
people.
