Berlin IL skeptical.

BERLIN, March 3i.--The German gov
ernment was taken wholly by surprise
with the news from Samoa. The i'm
perial chancellor, Prince Hohenlohe, is
spending his birthday, which occurred
today, at Baden Baden, and the minis
ter Of foreign affairs, Baron Won Bulow,
is enjoying fortnight's vacation in
Holstein. A we'll informed individual
says the government is skeptical as to
Admiral Kautz' instructions. He adds
that the instructions for lombard
ment were based on the British and
American claims that Mataafa was con.
travening the Samoan act. But the
correspondent informant points out
the contravention was not specified and
the government presumes that if the
pact was really infringed Herr Rose,
the German consul. would also have
protested, as his government had in
structed him to strictly conform to the
act. The assertion that Herr Rose pro-
tested against the deposition of the pro-
visional government is doubted here,
as, it is claimed, Herr Rose was in
structed not to identify himself with
Mataafa more closely than the repre-
sentatives Of the other powers. There
is considerable curiosity in this city as
to the effect the outbreak viii have on
the attitude of the United States and
Great Britain, but the view remains
that the final settlement will not be
changed by the outbreak of hostilities
but must be arranged by the joint ac.
tion of the three cabinets. The semi
official Post comments calmly upon the
new situation and says that Germany
will remain neutral.

TOPEKA, Kan, March 31.-The Demo-
cratic conference and banquet under the
auspices of the Democratic state central
committee was held in this city last
evening. Prominent speakers, includ-
ing Colonel William j. Bryan, Champ
Clark of Missouri, Allen o. Myers of
Ohio and Sidney Clark of Oklahoma
We're present. Covers were laid for
more than 1000 guests The meeting
was in the nature OF conference of the
Democratic leaders, the policy of the
party in the campaign of 1900 being
touched upon. Mr.. Bryan himself was
given the most prominent place, his
subject being Democracy. Mr.. Bryan
stood out squarely for the Chicago plat
form and said that there had been 20
retreat from the position taken in 1896.
1--WE are not only holding our own, he
declared, "but we are gaming back
those Democrats who left us without
fully understanding the nature of the
struggle.
"The Democratic platform of 1900
will be written by those who stood upon
the platform of 1896, not by those who
tried to overthrow the Democratic
party in that campaign"
Mr.. Bryan then passed on to the sub
ject of trusts and characterized them
as the products of Republican methods.
He gave this warming: eff the Repub-
ican party goes into the next campaign
upon a platform defending the trusts, it
will antagonize sentiments which are
rapidly growing against them, even in
the ranks of that party"
Mr.. Bryan closed with denuncia-
ton of militarism and what he termed
the tendency of the present administra-
ton towards imperialism. He said:
1.-The Republican party came into ex-
istence in an attempt to apply the dec-
laration of independence to the black
man; it seems likely to go out of exist
ence for its refusal to apply the same
PRINCIPLES to a brown man-only half

STATE oF ANARCHY PREVAILED.

Serious Condition of Affairs In the Isl-
ington Ofiicials--No Clash Between the
Three Powers Is Anticipated-OMcial
Adyices on the Outbreak Still Lacking.
WASHINGTON, March 31.-The seri-
GUS condition of Samoan affairs engaged
the attention of officials throughout
yesterday and there were conferences at
the white house between the president
and Secretary Hay and at the state de-
partment between the secretary and the
British ambassador and Baron Speck
Won Sternberg, first secretary of the
German embassy. But out of it all not
a word of additional information was
contributed from any official source.
The only authoritative statement came
from the navy department, giving q
brief dispatch from Admiral Kaut2.
This threw no light on the latest out
break and owing to a tangle of dates it
served only to further involve the mys-
ter.
1t was regarded as strange that the
state and navy departments should be
entirely without information of a bonn
bardment by an American admiral. Up
to the close of Office hours it was stated
that nothing had come from any of our
representatives on Samoa dealing with
the outbreak of hostilities. The calls of
Sir Julian and Baron Sternberg were
mainly for Information, for at neither
of the embassies had there been report
of the occurrence or instructions up to
the time of the calls.
The demonstration is regretted, but
the opinion is expressed that Admiral
Kautz acted within his instructions. 1t
is believed that he concluded after con-
sultation>with Captain Sturde of the
Porpoise, the senior British naval Off
Ger, and the United States and British
consuls that state of anarchy existed
which called for action. The fact that
the edicts of the chief justice were dis
regarded and were ignored, although
sustained by the representatives of two
of the governments, made such course
imperative There is no doubt. with
the facts now at hand, that Admiral
Kautz will be sustained by the United
States government

THE BATTLE OF BALLOTS.

Now that the falls campaign is
ended, the usual reaction in bust
ness circles may be expected, and
the merchant and the business man
will again settle down to hard
work. There is always spirit of
unrest and high nervous tension
manifest during a political cam
paign. and it always affects com
mercial circles to a greater or less
extent. Business in many in
stances is a secondary consider
alton until the battle of the ballots
is ended. Then the excitement
ends, the strained condition re-
lakes, men return to the ordinary
affairs of every day duties, with
the result that there is a reaction
which gives new impetus to bust
ness.
OF course many are disappointed
today, but they are in the minority.
1t is satisfaction to reflect that
after any political struggle ma
jority of the people are satisfied
and rejoice. 1t couldn't be other
wise.
And so defeat should be met
philosophically and no i'll feeling
be entertained The contest is
ended and the victors are to be
congratulated.

The amount of material thrown out

amples the following may be cited; In

dust was like that of the deepest night.
The noise OF the eruption was heard
at distance of nearly 1000 miles.
Vesuvius in 1887 elected nearly 12.000,-

WOMEN IN ENGLAND.
Their Places on Local Isoards Are to
BE RULED by Men.


The political rights Of women in Eng
land do not appear to have been great
ly improved by the recent parliament
of the sex in London. While this
body was yet in session an incident oe-
CURED which indicated that reaction
had set in against the cause the dele
gates were seeking to promote, Among
the measures passed at the recent par
liamentary session was a bill for the
better government of London which
creates a number of local district coun-
ellis within the area. the collective in
terests of which are cared for by the
London county council. Before this
bill passed the house OF commons an
amendment was accepted making wom-
en- eligible TO the boards OF aldermen
and to the district councils on the same
conditions which were prescribed for
men. This amendment was rejected
by the lords and when the bill was sent
back to the lower house the commons
receded from their position. notwith-
standing the strenuous opposition Of
fered by Leonard H. Courtney and
other advocates OF woman's rights. Au-
gustlne BirreI, the well-known author
OF "oblter Dicta." proclaimed himself
ashamed of the chivalry and consis-
tency Of men. who. after having allow
ed women to sit on the boards of guar
dians and the vestries which had pre-
ceded the county council. now refused
to give them place In the local bodies
that were to exercise the very func-
tions previously shared between the
sexes. Another measure in which the
sex was interested, and which was de-
feated by the house of lords after II had
passed the commons. was the bill re-
quiring shopkeepers to provide seats
for their women clerks, which they
might occupy while not waiting upon
customers. The earl OF Weinyss pro-
tested in the strongest terms against
the bill. which he looked upon as a
piece of peddling, hysterical. humani-
tartan. vote-catching legislation for
which the great mother of parliaments
was never Intended, and which was
enough to make the old parliamentary
ans turn in their graves. The shop
girls found plenty OF champions. how
ever, besides the prime minister. but
some of them admitted that the ques-
ton of providing seats was by no
means as simple as it looked. Nobody
doubted. they said. that shopwomen
continually undergo great suffering and
permanent injury from having to stand
for many hours. Nevertheless the bill
was defeated by considerable ma
jority.

she expected that her daughter Elsie

clerk to refuse to issue a license. The
clerk kept the letter for future refer

piled for a license. When Richey first
asked for a license the clerk thought
he remembered the name, and then he
got the old letter. Holding this in his
