VOICE OF BRYAN

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-William J.
Bryan came to the House of Repre-
sentatives today, and was given a most
cordial reception by his former col
leagues in Congress-
Col. Bryan expressed himself very
emphatically to his Democratic asso-
ciates upon the duty of Congress in re-
gard TO the Philippines. He believes
that the islands ought not to be held
longer than is necessary for the United
States to establish there a stable and
Independent government, such as was
guaranteed TO Cuba in the resolution
which led to the declaration of war.
and he believes it is the duty of Con-
gress to make a declaration of the in
tentiOn of the United States at the
earliest possible date, in order that
there may be no misunderstanding in
the future, and that the natives of the
islands may be assured that the ulti-
mate purpose of the United States is
to give them a free and independent
government.

VIEWS OF RIOS.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE Paris cor
respondent of the Times, NJ de Bio
WITT, telegraphed this morning a long
interview with the president OF the
Spanish peace commission, Senior Mon
tero Rios, in the course of which he
represents the Spanish commissioner
as complaining that the Americans
had acted as parvenus, who do not Yet
know misfortune or defeat"
Senior Rios Remarked: when later
on they also have suffered reverses,
they will be less inf1exibIe to those who
have suffered defeat
The Spanish commissioner contend
ed, according to NJ. de Blowitz, that
the Philippines are still unconquered
and that their conquest would not be
accomplished quickly. What most
panied him, however, appears to have
been "America's attempt to deprive
Spain of her honor by refusing to ar
bitrate regarding the Maine

(This recalls Bradley, a negro who
once lived here and who during his
residence carved woman with a razor.
Bradley was at that time tlcket-of-
Ievae man from San Quentin, the ia
nous prison of California. He had COM
mitted a murder up there with razor.
On reaching the Coast from here,
Bradley was recognized, hunted down
and placed again with the lock-step
gang of San Quentin. He worked part
of the time as barber. One day a
visitor was Judge Murphy of San Fran
cisco. who had sentenced Bradley. The
Judge was invited to have a prison
shave and more for a joke than any
thing else, sat for the operation. He
had been under the razor about min
ute when he recognized Bradley and
from the look of the man and his ac-
lions became seized with fear. Judge
Murphy was a good talker and he be-
gan to tell how his duty as judge
compelled him against his wishes to
send men to prison. He explained care
fully that his task was to only com
plete the work of the witnesses, attor-
neys and jurors and that he could not
be justly blamed for punishment inict-
ed on any man. The judge was very
much in earnest and Bradley listened
intently and completed the shave. So
soon as Judge Murphy left the chair he
looked Bradley in the eye and said to
him: Didn't you intend to cut my
throat with that razor" The darkey
answered.: That's just what l did sir.
I recognized you when you came into
the place. have hated you ever since
you sentenced me, but when you talked
l saw l was all wrong and you were all
right.")

There were five of us hunting and

one rainy day a stranger appeared. He
said he was a tramp barber and as
none OF us had been shaved for fort
night we gave him half a days work.
About four hours after he had left US,
band OF six men rode up, and the
leader inquired if we had seen a tall,
roughly dressed man pass mat way.
Y, told him OF the barber, and he
looked from man to man and exclaim-

'sWhy. he went insane yesterday, and

They rode away at a gallop, and next
morning returned to our camp with

lated Castle pome.

Berlin, July 30.-Bismarck died short,
away peacefully.
De tails of the leath of Prince Bis
marck are obtained with difficulty, be
cause of the lateness of the hour, the iso
lation of the castle and the strenuous en-
deayors of the attendants of the family
to prevent publicity being given to what
they consider private details.
The death of the eX-Chancellor comes
as Il surprise to all Europe. Despite
the family's denials, there was an under
current of apprehension when the sink
ing of the Prince was first announced,
inspired more by what the family left
unsaid than by any information given.
But when the daily bulletins chronicled

detailed his extensive bills of fare and
told of his devotion to his pipe, the pub
lie accepted DIR. Schweninger assertion
when he said there was no reason why
Bismarck should not reach the age of
80 years.
1t appears that the eX-Chancellor' $
death was not precipitated by sudden
complications, but was rather the cul-
mination of chronic diseases-neuralgia
of the face and inflammation of the veins
which kept nlm in constant pain that
was born with the iron fortitude
which might have been expected
from him. The beginning of the end
dates from July Goth, when the Prince
was confined to his bed. He had been
several days Frustrated before an ink
ling of his decline reached the world
During DR.. Schwcningers brief alb
sences from Friedrichshrue, DIR. Cry
sander was in constant attendance upon
the patient. Although Prince Bismarck
was extremely low on Wednesday. he sc
rallied on Thursday that he was wheel
ed to the dinner table to celebrate with
his assembled family the fiftyfrst ami
versary of his wedding. He never for q
moment believed himself in danger unit
the last day. On Monday he ordered
some new pipes and smoked one OF
Thursday, and then conversed Brilliant,
on the topics of the day, discussing The
{ trial and sentence of NJ. Zola and tn,
peace negotiations between Spain ano
the United States. Count Rantzau, the
Princes son-in-law, read to him from /;
newspaper an obituary notice of himself
at which he was greatly amused. He
perused the papers daily. and this was
one reason why the family deprecated
the alarmist reports as to his health.
The Lokal Anzeiger published a dis
patch from Fricdrichsrue, saying that
DIR. Schweninger. was present whel
Prince Bismarck died, having arrived
from Berlin at ] so o'clock. The Prince
was unconscious for several hours be.
fore the end came. and his breath al
most failed repeatedly. He died with

ten others were quarantined until last
Sunday when the quarantine was bro

he breaks out with what DIR. Manning
pronounces the smallpox. The time of
the quarantine seems not to have con
tinued long enough. Others have been
quarantined and will be kept till all
danger is past.
Alex Craig has about recovered and
will be discharged at an early day.
