SENTIMENT WITH THE MOB.

Washington, Feb. S-The attorney
general has sent to the senate a letter
written by Assistant United States At
torney McMecham giving the results OF
his investigation into the recent burning
OF two Seminole Indians in Oklahoma
by mob. Mr.. McMecham says that the
sentiment in the neighborhood of the
crime is all with the mob, and he was
informed that IL would not be we'll for
him or any person to go into that To-
cality IL 1t were known that the object
was to locate the conspirators.
Mr.. McMechams letter tells in the
main an old story. but he gives some
new details. McGisy was he says. the
first of the Indians to move a muscle
after the torch was applied, and he did
not move until the flesh was beginning
to drop from his limbs and the flames
were beginning to touch his ears He
then gave loud whoop and bent over
as far as the chain would allow him.
and, sucking in the leapinG fame sank
down and expired without showing any
more signs of pain. MIR. McMecham
says that Baptist minister prayed for
the two Indians before their execution.
and that as he knelt i'm prayer he held a
rifle in his hand.

GERMAN DISCRIMINATION.

Washington, Feb. S.--Ambassador
White has confirmed the reports OF the
modification of the decree of the Ger
man government relative to the i'm
portage into Germany OF American fresh
fruits. Ii is said that there is now moth
ing To do on our part but to watch the
workings of the decree as a means of
testing the spirit In which it was con-
ceived--whether IL was framed with the
single purpose of keeping out diseased
fruit, or whether 1t was a mere pretext
TO prevent competition OF our fruit with
German productions. That the depart
ment has reason to suspect the latter is
evidenced from the report that comes
TO ii from United States Consul Barnes
at Cologne, in which the consul points
cut gross discrimination by the local
officials against American hams.
In Germany pork is cured by the
wet process" which requires the fol-
lowing ingredients in the preparation:
30 percent of boracic acid, 80 percent OF
nitrate of potash and 80 percent OF COM
mon salt II thus appears that the court
of correction permits the use of a limit
ed quantity of boracic acid by the Ger
man people in the curing OF their meats
while ii condemns and forbids the use of
the same article in the meats coming
from America. 1t seems we'll nigh i'm
possible to overcome the deep seated
prejudice Of the German people against
American meat products.

and advocated the payment of 5000 each

shouts OF laughter from the Republicans.
Mr.. Olmstead (Rep.. Pa.). in reply 10
Mr.. Greene. produced clippings from
newspapers In all parts OF the country
showing great revival OF business and
trade. He said that the continued agi-
tation of the silver question was the
only thing that detarded the full meas
ure Of prosperity that would naturally
flow from the Dingley law. The threat
contained In the Teller resolution had
driven $40, ,000, 900 TO investment In foreign
securities.
do we want cowardly money that
runs away?" asked Mr.. Bland (Dem..
MOI.
Money is always timid." replied Mr..
Olmstead. 1T goes to places where 1t
is safest and the security is best"
You don't hear of silver running
away" reiterated Mr.. Bland.
NO" interposed Mr.. Lands (Rep.,
Ind.); you don't hear Of silver running
away from Mexico"
Mexico Is prosperous" shouted a
voice on the Democratic side.
Mr.. lands continued: "You don't
hear of silver money running away from
China"
Mr.. ogden (Dem., La.): Are you q
Chinaman or an Amerlcan?"
Mr.. Miers (Dem., Ind) and Mr. De
Almond (Dem.. MOI both denounced the
action of the house on the Teller bond
resolution. The whole purpose Of the
Republican party in the defeat Of that
resolution, Mr.. DeArmond declared, was
TO commit the country irretrievably TO
the gold standard. 1t had al last thrown
off all subterfuges and shams. and now
had the shameless effrontery to boldly
proclaim the robbery which it always
secretly connived at, but never before
had the hardihood to avow.
Mr.. Low Rep.. n. Y.) said it was no
marvel that the Democrats were howl
ing down the evidences of prosperity
which confronted them on all sides.
When a Democrat was brought face to
face with prosperity he shook like an
pspen leaf.
Mr.. Perkins (Rep., Ia.) said that in
the matter of wheat and wool the high
prices prevailing had been charged to
blind chance. 1t was said that the Re-
publican party was the party OF good
luck. III that were true il followed that
there must be party OF bad luck. For
himself he preferred to affiliate himself
with the party which was identified in
the present and the future. with the
prosperity and happiness of the people.
