and reacts on all humanity by peopling
the "etheric currents of thought" from
which others must get help or injury.

oERMANYs GRAND OLD MAN.
His Death Surprise to the world-Read
His Own Obituary Notice.

Berlin. July @.-Prince Bismarck died
shortly before II o'clock tonight, The
death OF the ex-chancellor comes as a
surprise to all Europe.
Despite the family's denlals there was
an undercurrent OF apprehension when
the sinking Of the prince was first an
nounced, inspired more by what the fam
lily left unpublished than by any informa-
ton given, but when the daily bulletins
chronlcled improvements in the prince $
condition, detailed his extensive bill Of
fare and hts devotion TO his pipe, the
public accepted DR.. Schweningers' aSser-
tion that there was no reason why Bis
marck should not reach the age Of 20,
All of Saturdays papers In Europe dis
missed Bismarck with a paragraph-noth-
Ing important-while his condition was
completely overshadowed In the English
papers by the condition Of the Prince OF
Wales knee.
1t appears that the ex-chancellor' 5
death was not preclpttated by sudden
complications, but was rather the cul-
mnatilon of n chronic disease, neuralgia
of the face and inflammation of the
veins, which kept him in constant pain
which was borne with the iron fortttude
which might have been expected.
The beginning of the end dates from
July 90 when the prince was confined to
his bed, He had been several days pros
trated before the inkling of decline
reached the world, On Friday DR. Schwen-
niger said:
"For the past nine days have hardly
changed my clothes, having travelled
all the time between Berlin and Fried

A DIVERSITY on couNsEL
McKinleys ofielal Family Cannot Agree
on the philippines.

OA NAN N---ff--t~F
New York. July 3O.-A special to the
Times from Washington says:
n has been said that there were nine
opinions touching the Philippines In the
ca5lnet-one for the President and one
for each OF his Official family.s
When II came 20 the turn OF the MEN,
bers OF the cabinet to help the president
out Of the Philippine difficulty. Secretary
Day was In favor Of retaining only
coaling station. Secretary Gage was op-
posed to holding anything whatever; Sec
retary Wilson would hold everything and
defy the allied powers to object; Secre-
tary Smith preferred to hold LuEon and
assert protectorate over the other Is
lands to secure fair government 70 them
from Spain; Secretary Bliss thought that
coaling station and a zone Of corpora
tions at Subig or some other port would
answer and there were other modlhca-
tiOns Of these views. all given to the
president for what they were worth.
Before the cabinet meeting OF the morn
ing was over II became evident that the
Philippine question was one that had
been forced for determination long be-
fore the cabinet was ready for It. The
offer for peace was unexpected, and
there had not been that preliminary
thought about the future OF the islands
that ought to have been given to Il. AT
an afternoon meeting It soon became
evident that there would be an agreement
either to hold the islands as a group or
to be satisfied with coaling station ana
guarantees to the Philippine Islands that
in revenge for their rebellion and objec-
ton TO oppression there should not be a
series OF murders on the parade Of Ma
Mia after the war was over.
Not a syllable about the coallng station
at the Canaries or in the Mediterranean
was suggested. That may come later
should the first attempt to secure peace
be unsuccessful and the United States bo
compelled to indulge in further expense
at Spain's act.
There is no doubt strong inclination
to take an island OF the Philippine group,
try American ways with 1t and see what
It's influence upon nelghboring islands will
be. But there Is no seeing what would
happen TO the others II Luzon were taken
by the United States. All the powers that
are watching and worrying lest the group
be taken by the United States and made
free to the world, might fall on the 9TH
ers and divide them up in order to bal
ance things.

Islands, either on Luzon, Mlndano, or
