to the press regarding the Anglo Ger
man agreement has been issued It tt is is
as follows: q ts..: l$. Il 81 3sSssts
.'The British and German govern
ments, having previously reached an
agreement between themselves, in
formed Portugal that in the event of
her contracting large loan for the
purpose Of reorganizing her finances,
the two governments were disposed to
guarantee the success of the operation.
At the same time the governments Of
Great Britain and Germany assured
Portugal that the basis Of the agree
ment between them was the recogni-
tion Of the integrity Of the Portuguese
colonial dominions and the legitimacy
of Portuguese sovereignty over the
Portuguese possessions They further
suggested that in the event of Portugal
accepting a proposal concerning loan
the latter should be guaranteed by the
colonial and customs receipts. The
Portuguese government then declared
that it. had no need Of such loan, and
according to our informa alton, has no
such need to the present day.

Ex-speaker Stiff and Senator
Whiteside
Each Testify to Having Been
Approached in the Interest
off Clark.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. Mr.. Henry c.
Stiff, speaker Of the Montana house Of
representatives, was the first Witness Of
the day IN the Clark case before the
senate committee on privileges and
elections. Representative Camphell of
Montana questioned Mr. Stiff, and his
questions were directed toward show
ing that the embarrassed financial eon-
dition Of State Representative Nc
Langhlin had been taken advantage Of
by Senator Clark to approach him to
secure his vote, and also that Mr.. Stif's
$oWnlVote had been improperly solicited.
Mr.. Stiff stated that he knew that Mr.. 4
. Mclaughlin was in distressed financial
circumstances prior to the meetina asof
the legislature. He also stated that he
had himself been approached by Mr.
w. NJ. Bickford, as a Representative Of
Mr.. Clark and his support solicited for
the latter. Sc
The questions bringing out this In
formation were all objected to by the
defense, who insisted that Mr.. Clark
must be directly connected with all
transactions with which it was sought
to connect his name. The reply was
that his connection would be shown
over Mr.. Clark's signature.
Wnitestds's Testfmony.
Fredl Whiteslde, Montana state sena-
tor from Flathead county, testified that
he had been approached prior to and
after the meeting of the Legislature IN
the interest of Mr.. Clark candi dacy BY
John S. Neill, John b. Welcome and
Charles w. CLARK, q son Of the senator.
He had seen Mr.. Welcome by appoint
ment at his room at hotel in Helena,
and had also met there others Of Mr..
Clark's friends. He had also met there
Senator Clark, who told him that Well
come had spoken favorably Of him
(Whiteside) The first lntimation he
had had that his support of Mr..
Clark would be to his financial advan-
tage came from Mr.. Neill. Afterwards
Mr.. Welcome had told him that his
vote for and support Of Mr.. Clark
would be worth $4,000. He had CO.
operated with the supporters of Mr..
Clark's election. He exhibited list Of
the members of the legislature whom
Mr.. We ellcome and Senator Glark's son
had requested him to see. They had
told him they were willing to pay $10,-
900 for any Democratic vote and more
for the vote Of Mr.. j. Z. Anderson Of

In That She Is Preparing to
Some Day Test the Monroe

LONDON, Jan. 8. The Spectator pub
fishes an article entitled Germ any
and the Monroe doctrine z in which it
says: Ss s
.tss America and not England is the
rival, in German opinion. It is with
America and not England that Ger
many realizes she must struggle for
supremacy We do not say for mo-
ment that Germany regards America
as an enemy, but Germany realizes it is
America that at that moment lies
across Germany's path and that unless
she is able to reckon with America on
eqra1 terms she will not become the
world power Of the future that she de-
sires to be. . # i Al
The Spectator then goes on to de-
clare that Germany's objective is South
America, but that the Monroe doctrine
bars her way. How to get around this
is puzzling, but, the paper declares,
Emperor William counts upon the Ger.
man vote in the United States to help
him when his new navy; is ready to
carry out his South American expan-
sion idea. especially in Brazil. s.
The Spectator then warns the United
States that if it intends to uphold the
Monroe doctrine in the future, it must
not go to sleep over it now, but prepare
to support q navy and army equal to
the strain Of maintaining q policy 50
tremendous. If not, she is certain to
suffer great humiliation at the hands Of

many" adding: 5s ,.

ism. She will call the American feet
and if the feet is no higher than hers,
Germany will act. s
