Prince bismarck Facetious.

Hamburg, July 29.-The Hamburger
Nachrichten says: Prince Bismarck's
condition still gives employment to his
physicians, but there is no ground for
anxiety. The pain from which he has
been suffering continues, but the last
two nights have been comparatively
good. His appetite begins to increase
and his spirits are good. When told
that foreign athletes who had taken
part in the funniest had called at the
castle to pay their respects, he said:
TELL them myself have been standing
on my head for a week."

lighted the fuse attached to the dyna-
mite, and held the can in his hand.

Italy's Claim Against Colombia. .


Washington, July 29.-The demand
Of Italy upon Colombia for the settle
ment Of the Cerruti claim of SIZE, 900 has
not yet been complied with, and al
though some progress has been made
toward adjustment there is still pos
sibility that the case may assume
grave aspect through action by the
Italian feet sent to demand settle-
ment. Some days ago Colombia made
an offer to settle If the italian feet left
Colombian waters, thus relieving the
republic Of the humiliation of acting
under pressure. But 1t Is understood
that the Italian government pointed
out that Colombia had been informed
of the proposed arrival Of the squadron
at Cartagena, and therefore had time
for the execution Of the award, and
thus to eliminate every appearance Of
coercion. VT !

HANNA And HIS PLEDGES
Not the Tenth Part Of Them Can
He Fill.
Hundreds of CffiCeseekers With
Promises Will Be After Him
when He Returns.

Now that the election is over, Mr..
Hanna viii no longer have any pre-
text for holding up the offices that
rightfully belong to the Republicans.
There are hundreds of these that have
been pigeonhoIed at Hanna's orders,
and the day of reckoning is at hand
The life Of the Senator upon his return
to Washington win be made utterly
miserable
He has made so many promises in
his efforts to catch the necessary votes
that he viii be unable to fulfill the
tenth part of his pledges. The narrow
ness of his vote and the desperateness
of the fight against him has made it
necessary for the Senator and those
acting for him to promise every Office
within the gift of the Administration
that could possibly go to anyone with
influence in the State. to a dozen men
in each case. 1t remains to be seen
how the Senator and Major Dick, with
all their shrewdness, viii carry out the
anti-eleCtion promises they have made.
Dozens of postoffice nominations are
awaiting his return. Every place along
the Ohio river in the steamboat in
spection; the places in the life-saving
service along the lake: the railway
postal vacancies, and innumerable 9TH
er positions are awaiting the return of
the Senator from the scene of the fray.
His coming will be the signal for the
swarm Of office-seekers 10 start for
Washington. They will be here in
droves, and the Senator viii be required
to employ two or three additional con-
fidential messengers at his rooms in
the national committee headquarters
and issue orders to Senate messengers
not to carry in any cards.
The crowd that is coming to Wash
ington is doomed to disappointment.
There are not offices enough left to fill
the promises the Senator's agents have
made. Hundreds of men are to be left
in the lurch, stranded in this city, and
before many weeks have passed the
Ohio Republican workers who have
banked on promises will see how easily
promises can be made by a candidate
in desperate straits and how exceeding
ly difficult il is to have those promises
carried out.
Washington win be the Mecca of the
Ohio office-seel1er. and Hanna win wish
he had never been born.

The nomination of Charles Page
Bryan as minister from this country TO
Brazil was sent to the Senate yester-
day.
This solves a problem for the Presi-
dent, as there is no doubt that The
nomination will be confirmed.
The opposition to Mr.. Bryan was
based wholly on the argument that he
was not experienced enough to fill the
important Pekin post at this time.
AT the time MIR. Bryan's name was
sent TO the Senate the name of Edwin
H. Conger, as minister to China, ac-
companied it.
Mr.. Conger is the present minister TO
Brazil. and is said to be skilled in di-
plomacy. He consented to relieve the
President of embarrassment by accept
ing the Chinese mission, and the trans
fer was accordingly made.
