GERMANYS FRIENDSHIP.
No Reason Why 1t Should No Be
More Firmly Established"
KA1sBR's QUARREL WITH BERLIN

Should the Administrative Supreme
Court Decide Adversely TO His Maj
esty's views He WIN withhold His
Confirmation of Mayors Election.
Berlin, Dec 2.-The friendly refer
ences to Germany made by Mr. Choate,
the United States ambassador to Great
Britain, in his speech at the Thanks
giving day banquet of the American
society in London, have created a
most favorable impression here, es-
pecially in high government circles.
One of the principal advisers of the
emperor whom a correspondent saw
yesterday, made a special reference to
the address, remarking that Mr..
Choate had put the matter In the true
light.
There is no reason l know Of" he
said, why the relations between Ger
many and the United States, which al e
now good, should not become even bet
ter and be more firmly established.
With regard to commerce we are
rivals, and each must make conces-
sions; all our interests and inclina-
tions are toward strengthening the
already existing ties"
Berliners are still agog over the
bitter quarrel between the emperor
and the municipal authorities. The
council appealed against the decree is
sued by the police forbidding them
to erect a walled enclosure, with an
inscription on the gate in memory of
the victims of the uprising of 1S4S.
The council in turn has appealed to
the supreme administrative court,
which will try the case Dec H.
The emperor Aas made up his mind,
It Is said in court circles, that If the
decision favors the council he will
confirm the election OF Mayor Won
Kirschner, who has patiently awaited
the imperial pleasure since July of
last year. On the other hand, if the
decision favors the city, his majesty
so the story goes-will continue to
withhold his confirmation. Baron Won
Mirbach, chief chamberlain to the en-
press, has gone on leave to Belgium
for three weeks until the Berlin ex-
citement occasioned by his recent let
ter reprimanding the council shall
have subsidized.
Reports again reach here of seiz-
ures of American fruit at German
frontier stations. Seizures have been
made at Emmerich of apples and pears
and at Hamburg of nectarines and Cal
ifornia dried fruit. In all these cases
it is alleged the San Jose scale has
been found. simultaneously there is
revival of the agitation for a high
duty on foreign fruit, and in some
cases entire import prohibition is de-
manded.

surcharged political atmosphere In a
very skeptical manner II is not like
ly now there Will be any developments
until the meeting OF the election COM
missioners. Although the candidates
for governor are in town. they are
keeping quiet, and their friends are
emulating their example.
There is a deeply settled belief
among both Democrats and Republic
cans that the commissioners will not
turn the matter over to the legislature
but will surely issue a certificate to
either Gobel or Taylor II II is given
to the former It is possible that the
matter may end there, as many OF the
conservative Republicans are Of the
opinion that in view Of the strong
Democratic majority I'm the legislature
Il will be practically useless for the
Republicans to look for anything I'm
that quarter. If the certificate goes t.
Taylor 1t is a certainty that the matter
Will be taken to the legislature, where
Goebel may finally win out
The Republicans, however. are by no
means a unit in favor of abandoning
the fight at the door of the legislature.
Some of them are vehement In their as
sertions that they will not abandon the
fight until there is no possible chance
of Taylor being governor of the state.
Governor Bradley has evidently
made up his mind that somebody will
receive a certificate of election, for he
was busily engaged all day in pack
ing up his private property in the
state house, preparatory to a return to
private life.
"They are making my last days my
hardest days" he said. "but | guess
there will be no trouble. There are
too many sensible men on both sides
to prevent anything of that kind. |
really do not see how anything can be
done to keep Mr.. Taylor from the
chair. He will go in all right"
1t is not likely that the election COM
missioners will finish their work be-
fore Tuesday afternoon. Among the
suggestions made regarding their
probable line of action is that, sitting
as an election board, the commission
eTs will issue certificates of election to
all the minor Republican officials and
then, resolving themselves into a con-
testing board. declare the Democratic
claims of election to these offices to
be valid. and GUST all the Republicans
to whom certificates have been is
sued. 1t has already been held that a
contesting board is powerless to de-
eide a contest concerning a governor
or lieutenant governor, and the fate
of those two officials will be turned
over to the legislature, the commits
sioners saying in effect to the legis-
lature: I'VE believe they are un-
lawful incumbents. but we have not
the power to remove them. It's up to
you"

Paynter of the court of appeals, yes

THH DHATH OF TIt LAALIFA
Finding Escape Impossible. lie Calm
Iy Awaited the End.

Cairo. Dec. 2.-Oficers from the Sou
dan who have arrived here say that
when General Wingate's force over
took the khalifa the latter tried to out
hank the Anglo-E Egyptians, but failed.
Seeing his position was hopeless, the
khalifa told his emirs to stay with him
and die. He then spread a sheepskin
on the ground and sat down on It, with
the emirs on either side of him. The
Bhalifa was found shot through the
head. heart, arms and legs, and the
emirs we're lying dead beside him.
The members of his badly guard were
all dead in front OF them. General
Wingates force swept over them with
out recognizing the khalifa and his
emirs, but they were identified later.
The khalifa is described as of medium
height, strong and stout, of light brown
color and wearing long gray beard.

RlOTous CHICAGO STUDENTS.
They Compel Some of the Professors
to Dismiss Their Classes.


Chicago, Dec 2.-The attempt OF
some of the professors of the Chicago
university yesterday to hold recita-
tions, contrary to the usual custom at
the university of giving a pOst-Thanks-
giving holiday, almost resulted in a
riot among the students Crowds Of
them, enthusiastic over Thursdays
football victory over Brown, surged
through Cobb Hall, waving banners,
giving the college cheer and repeatedly
breaking open doors and dragging out
all students attempting to study or at
tend recitations. The classes were
broken up totally, and for over an hour
pandemonium reigned Most OF the
professors dismissed their classes at
the demands of the students, but some
of them did not. and order was only
restored when President Harper ap-
peared. During the melee Professor
Laughlin was pelted with chalk and
struck several times in the face, and
what will be the outcome is problemat-
ical. 1t is believed many suspensions
will result.
