BERLIN Dec 6.-The message sent to
congress yesterday by President Mckinley
has been most sympathetically received by
newspaper and government circles in Ger
many. This is especially true of the foreign
office, one of the highest officials of which
told the representative of the Associated
Press that the document had made spen-
did impression, adding that the distinctively
warm tone of the message will tend in an
important manner to deepen and strengthen
the friendship of the two countries ma
terially and remove difficulties in the set
Ting OF the meat and sugar questions still
pending.
Herr Barth, in the Nation, will say: 1.-The
most important thing in the message for the
economic interests of the world is the propo-
sition to put the United States more squarely
on the gold standard. 1t is the last kick
to bimetallism."
The National Zeitung says president
McKinley's words in referring to Germany
plainly show favorable revulson of senti-
ment toward us. In Germany the friendly
words of the American president will be
appreciated at their full value Germany
also earnestly desires to maintain the best
relations with the United States and the
full of loyalty and friendship in economically
competing"

LONDON, Dec. 6.--The amount of space
devoted here to President McKinley's mes
sage to congress evidences the widespread
interest in the document. The afternoon
newspapers, in long editorials on the subject,
particularly refer to the currency decara-
tions and solace themselves with the idea
that the good relations between the United
States and Great Britain are so well known
as not to have required emphasis as in the
case Of Germany.
The Pail Mall Gazette sees in the message
an unmistakable reproof of Mr.. Chamber
lain's Leicester speech
The Globe thinks the document is weak
in higher craftsmanship and that on foreign
policy, as elsewhere, it is tinctured with op-
portuism.
The Westminster Gazette, discussing the
reference to Canada, says: when discussing
the relations between Great Britain and the
United States it ought always to be remem-
bered that there are very material interests
which must be dealt with on business and
not on sentimental grounds. Graceful con-

The Appleton militiamen in answer to
the claim Of Sheboygan members of the
National guard that they had not been
accorded fair representation in the list of
staff appointments and in the selection of

the men of that city to feel sighted. The
reSlmental officers would, of course, make
no statement, but it is claimed by others
that the statement that ShebOygan fur
nlshed larger proportion of her popula-
ton for the army service than any other
city of its size. is erroneous. Appleton
IN addition to sending out one full com

other cities, sending twenty men to one

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS
The President Decides Upon Raising
Nine REGIMENTS

Washington, d. c., June 23-Presi-
GENT Mckinley has decided to call for
volunteers for service in the Philippines.
IL mas been determined to form at least
nine regiments and possibly twelve The
advisers of the President do not agree

SerVauve military authorities believe the
augmentation provided by nine regiments
of volunteers would be sufficient for the
demands upon our troops IL the Philip
pines, While other experts urge the Presi-
dent to utilize the entire $4,000 author
lied by the army act.
For the present the President deems
nine or ten regiments enough. and it is
understood this number is based on the
representations made by Gen. Otis. who
IS said to have recently amended his es-
innate Of the force he will need in main
tanning peace in the islands. There are
now $4,000 regulars in the Philippines,
and there will shortly be a reinforcement
Of at least 1000. This furnishes Gen
Otis with the army he desired in the
earlier estimates from Manila. Lately,
however, he has had occasion to revise
these figures, and under the influences of
the more liberal estimates of Gen. Law
ton and other advisers he has informed
the Washington officials that the pres
ence of $4,000 or $4,000 volunteers to
supplement- the force OF regulars VIII be

The method of raising the troops has
not been decided upon, but it will prOba-
bly, be by states. Actual enlistment for
the new volunteer regiments will be I'M
der the army officers and the records will
be similar to those which attended the
recruiting of volunteers at the Outbrea k
of the late war. 1t is probable the COM
pany strength will be maximum, and this
would give for nine regiments Il volun-

made, New York was prepared to furnish

similar to it, is deemed by the admins
tration absolutely necessary to meet the
new conditions which confront the Unit
ed States as a result of the war with
Spain. A cabinet officer thus explains
the necessity for such department:
AT the present time there is no CEN
trail lead for the consideration Of TIE
multifariouS questions constantly arising
in connection with Cuba, Porto Rico, Ha-
wall and the Philippines. The war de-
partment has control of these matters
now, but there are many questions-fnan-
cial, administrative. judicial, commercial
and diplomatic-which our army officers
are not competent to deal with and ought
not to be required to pass upon. AS mat
tiers go now, there is a disposition to
shift from one department to another,
and from one bureau to another, to es-
cape responsibility for settling intricate
and embarrassing questions"

ELECTRIC COMPETITION.
New Company Incorporated in La
Crosse with Prominent Cap
italists Backing It.

La Crosse, Wis, June 24.-[Special. L
There are prospects of street railway
competition in the local field in this city
Plans have been very slowly and quietly
developing and were only brought to
light by the filing with the register of
deeds of the amended articles of incor-
poration by the La Crosse City Railway
company, authorizing the company to en-
ter the field of supplying electrical heat
power and light to the public, in compe-
tition with the Edison Light & Power
company, which has up to this time
occupied the field exclusively. 1t
new develops that the Edison
company has formulated plans for a COM
plete street railway system covering the
city. This includes also the construc-
ton of an additional causeway, connect
ing the north and south sides of the city
and is the means of the expenditure of
large sums of money. The rivalry be-
tween the two companies has become
very pronounced during the past few
months, and efforts to settle the differ
ences have been unsuccessful. The street
railway company is headed by B. E. Ed
wards, a prominent politician and CAPT
tallst, for years a member Of the Repub-
hcan state central committee, and w.
w. Cargll, who has extensive railroad,
grain and elevator interests all through
the Northwest. The principal owners of
the Edison company are Col. Z. A. Cope

Washington, D. c., June 24.-The
memorandum handed to Ambassador
Choate at London yesterday concerning
the modus for a temporary agreement

final agreement in the case, but another

of this last memorandum that the belief
was expressed that an agreement would

The points of difference between the
governments are not made public but
the modification requested by the British
government does not meet with favor by
those who are conducting the negotiations
