BERLIN, July 29.-In consequence of
inquiries from the st. Petersburg chan
celery, Germany has formally repudiated
all intention of annexing Bear island and
has ordered the consul at Tromsoe to in
form the traveller Lerner, who recently
occupied the island with a view to re-
vivifying the German fisheries there, that
in the event of his action leading to COM

With a fine disregard Of Admiral
Dewey's possible wishes the navy depart
ment, after asking him to prescribe his
own uniform has proceeded to fashion
one for him in the interim. OF course the
department has not the slightest intention
OF sighting the admiral, and it has taken
the greatest care to forestall his desires,
but the fact remains that history may re-
peat itself. and the admiral later modify
this dress.
When Farragut was commissioned an
admiral, the style Of his dress was left to
his own choosing, and the modest old
gentleman designed something eminently
fitting his quiet tastes. So unpretentious
was his garb that it left nothing gaudy
enough for his immediate junior, and the
result was a subsequent order from the
department directing him to cover nearly
half Of his sleeve with gold oak leaves.
That the old gentleman was indignant is
putting it mildly. and because of his very
positive stand he was allowed to retain
his own dress, while his junior glorified in
something Shower.
The distinctive markings which the de-
partment have chosen for Admiral Dewey.
are, with one minute exception, such as
Admiral Farragut chose for himself, and
1t is thought that this association with his
old master of war may be all the more
pleasing to Admiral Dewey, whose tastes
in such matters are also refined and quiet.
While Admiral Dewey is on his last
cruise it is highly probable that he will
never need but half Of the eight uniforms
which the new regulations prescribe for
him: but it is interesting to know how
he will look when he returns to take part
in the many welcoming demonstrations
which await him.
When calling on the president or some
similar dignitary and at general muster
on the first Sunday of every month, Ad-
miral Dewey will wear what is termed
special full dress-the garb, in fact, in
which the accompanying cut shows him.
This is his very SWEETEST outfit, and con-
sists of double-breasted coat with white
silk serge; trousers, also of navy blue
broadcloth, with gold lace down the outer
seams; a goldbanded cooked hat. epau.

AMERICAN IMPORTS.

The Solingen chamber of commerce re
ports that exports from that district to
the United States have fallen oft 30 per
cent as the result of the Dingley tariff.
The Dresden chamber Of commerce com
plains loudly of the increase OF American
competition, especially III manufactured
articles, and explains that American su-
periority in the worlds markets is due
to the extraordinary activity of the Unit
ed States consuIs and to the immense
capital of American manufacturing COM
panies permitting the greatest possible
division of labor and specialization, en-
abling them to produce cheaper and pay
higher wages. The Americans sell at low,
even cut-throat prices, but explains this
by the assertion that high duties enable
manufacturers to sell for high prices at
home while they dispose of their surplus
abroad at the lowest prices.
The rate Of the falling off of exports to
the United States leads 90 the view that
expectation will cease entirely, and that

ed at Bellaire under rather peculiar cir
cumstances. The show returned on
last Saturday from a trip out the O., L.

which it played to large audiences. The
performers, however, were all back two
weeks on salary and $3.50 o'clock yes
terday morning was set by the man
agement for paying off. The perform
ers and musicians to the number OF
fifteen repaired to the appointed place
ind waited for the managers to put in
IN appearance, but the latter failed to
lhow up, and they have not yet been
located. The players are without
funds and several of them far from
home, and their chagrin and disap-
pointment can be imagined at the
shabby treatment The chattels and
equipments of the show are of little
value and if put UP at auction would
bring but trife. The managers of the
Show belong to Bellaire and it is said
hitherto have borne a good reputation
tor honest dealing Their absence
with good stake received from the
ticket wagon is therefore all the more
surprising. The managers were the
Martin brothers. Willie and Andrew,
and Edward Donahue. Several of the
musicians are from Grafton. w. Va.
They are C. e. Vincent, Frank Martin
and O. r. Kraft. The other perform
ers who are lamenting the absence of
the then managers are T. H. Lyons, of
New York, George La Rose, a sketch
artist, of Kansas City; Mr.. and Mrs.
Edwins, of Chicago, and F. l.. Potts,
of Cincinnati. The performers gave
the management benefit Wednesday
night, for which they appear to have
gotten small thanks. There are also
quite number of Bellaire members of
the aggregation who would like to see
their erstwhile employers.

Great Britain will not Turn Back In the
Transyaal Affair.


Transvaal Affair.
LONDON, July 28.-In the House OF
Lords to-day the Earl of Camperdown
called attention to the Transvaal situ-
alton. The Earl of Dunraven and
Others followed, all declaring that any
departure from the recognized policy OF
the government would be an act of in
estimable danger to the position of
Great Britain, not only in South At
rica, but it might shake the imperial
existence of Great Britain itself.
The Earl of Shelbourne, under Sec
rotary for the colonies, made a state
ment similar in purport to that made
in the House of Commons by Mr.. Cham
berlain.
Lord Salisbury reminded the House
that he absolutely dissented from the
policy OF 1881, which was tainted with
the grave fault of optimism. Neverthe-
less, President Kruger assented in the
protocol of the 1881 convention to
friendly cooperation of the races, while
he has since taken an absolutely oppo-
site line, his one effort being to separ-
ate the English and South African gov
ernments and to reduce the English to
the status of a subjugated race.
The premier declared that he was not
surprised that panic overlook Presi-
dent Kruger at the interruption of the
gold digging in 1886; but he blamed
him for not consulting the British gov
eminent as to how to deal with the
phenomenon.
He agreed that if the latest conces
sions were genuinely carried out, the
government might look forward to
peaceful solution of the crisis. Her
Majesty's government, he said, had
put their hands to the pillow and GER
tainly did not intend to turn back.
