The German editors of Chicago say that
all of the friction between Germany and
the United States during the war with
Spain has been caused, or rather inspir-
ed, by England. To show that Germans
are not unfriendly TO the United States
they propose to hold a great meeting next
Monday at which the speeches and the
resolutions will express the true German
sentiment. In so far as the Germans of
the United States are concerned. it may
be remarked that their friendliness, even
loyalty. has never been questioned. Hob
son had a Claussen with him on the Mer-
rimac, and there is probably not a regi-
ment in the service the roster of which
does not show fair sprinkling of German
names.

The probabilities are that those two Amer
leans. for whose release the Filipinos
wanted $50 each in the way of compensa-
ton for board, are the only Americans in
Filipino hands.

and Immediately Kearrested
1t will be remembered that about a
week ago George Leinsetter, of Bridge
port, was robbed, while in this city,
of an amount of money at first stated
to be $40, and later $50, SAT and other
amounts. Lieutenant Michaels arrest
ed Jacob Nary and ]. S. Schumann and
they were charged with the crime.
Schumann was held, While Nary's case
was continued for a week. Yesterday
morning both men were discharged by
Justice Rogers, but they were soon af-
ter re-arrested, by direction of Chief of
Police Clemans, and were committed
to Jail for the grand jury.
Yesterday Justice Rogers was asked
about the case, and said
Il consulted with the Prosecuting
Attorney, and he advised me to re-
lease both men, as the evidence in such
cases could not be depended upon to
convict. The prosecuting witness also
asked that the men be dismissed. as
he could not swear they took his mon
ey. Afterwards. the men were recon-
mitted to Jail on Mr.. Meyers recon-
mendation. The case is a similar one
to that of the soldier who was said to
have been robbed by Nettie Moore,
and the cases are of class difficult to
handle"
Chief Clemans was seen and said:-
This thing of stealing money and
valuables from drunken men, who are
gotten drunk for the purpose, has got
to stop. Attempts to compound felon-
les will also have to be stopped When
l heard the two men were released
took steps to have them again commit
ted in default of $500 bail, and also
put the prosecuting witness under
bond. Money was paid to have this
case settled, but such settlements don't
go with me. / have several thieves now
in Jail, and there will be more of them
there if they don't leave town. I'm
going to fight cases like this one to a
finish"

Laid on Bstuees whsslinE RArk and
Elm Grove.
Many people contemplating suburban
locations for residential purposes will
be interested in knowing that new
and handsome plat of lots is to be laid
out in territory along and contiguous
to the National road and Wheeling and
Elm Grove electric line, in the region
between Wheeling Park and Elm
Grove. The site of this addition to
available building sites in the vicinity
of this city is located on what is
known as the Pryor estate, and COM
prises about twenty acres. The sale
of this land to local syndicate has
been practically completed, and the
consideration to be paid is placed at
upwards of twenty thousand dollars.
1t is proposed by the purchasers to
sub-divide this land into building lots,
laid out with broad avenues and streets,
piptu loi water anu udluIdl gas, anu
with electricity for all desiring its
use in buildings. In the approximate
centre of the tract will be small park,
with fountain, and the entire plat
will be made attractive in every man
ner and form for residents. If the deal
is completed, and it probably will be
shortly, the lots will be placed upon
the market during the coming season,
and will doubtless be eagerly snapped
up by those who know a good thing
when they see it.
