SEES WAR WITH GERMANY.
Paris Papers Guess Regarding I'm
Gle Sam and the Kaiser.

Gle Sam and the Kaiser.
Paris, May S.-The Patrie, an after
noon Nationalist newspaper classed as
sensational i'll dispatch from London,
claims to have discovered the real reason
for the friendly attitude of Emperor Will
liam Of Germany toward Great Britain
at the present juncture, which, it de-
clares, is the German emperor's belief
that war between Germany and the Unit
ed States is possible, and that in view Of
that contingency he wishes to win over
Great Britain to neutrality.
Continuing, the Patrie recalls the fric-
tion caused by the action of the German
naval commander, Admiral Diedrichs, at
Manila and affirms that the opposition of
the United States to Emperor Williams
dream of founding a greater Germany in
Brazil and Argentina is responsible for
the coldness in the relations between the
two countries. 1t concludes:
''War between America and Germany
is, therefore, not impossible in the near
future, and 1t is in view of this war; and
not with hostile intentions toward Eng
land. that Germany is making unheard of
efforts TO increase her navy. In the inter-
val, the sole aim of German policy is to
prevent an Angln-A American alliance.
There is the secrecy of Emperor Will
liam's attitude. for if England believed
i'll a coalition of the powers against her,
she would not hesitate to conclude n
Yankee alliance. The emperor, there
fore, is striving to appear at least de-
voted to England, in order to more surely
realize his dream and make Brazil and
Argentina future dependencies of the
German empire"

that date is a month after the formal

The exposition is as yet far from com.

some of them American, are still outside

other countries. but the action of the

The pronuncamento, however, is gener.

FINANCIAL AND TRADE.

Yesterday was day of depre ssion in

development to adversely influence the

steadily downward, losses Of / per cent.

Pays the Penalty of His Crime After
Five Yenrs' Delay.

Jersey City, May S.-Edward Clifford,
who five years ago shot and killed Will
liam G.. Watson, superintendent of the
West Shore railroad, has been hanged
in the Hudson county Jail, Jersey City.
Cliiford's execution had been postponed
aalf dozen times by legal proceedings,
instituted by his lawyers and it was not
certain until late hour that he would
be hanged. His lawyers then abandoned
all further action in the case
The sheriff's jury and court jury, head
ed by Sheriff Rcumper, marched from
the sheriff's office into the Jail, and on
reaching the gallows, which was erected
in one of the upper corridors, the jurors
and newspaper men present formed in
line about the scaffold and waited for the
condemned man to appear
The condemned man walked to the gal
lows with firm step, the priests praying
by his side. Clifford looked around at
the little group of men present and said,
"Goodhy." Father Foye then said:
"Gcntemen, Mr.. Clifford wishes me to
make this statement: Il never intended to
shoot or kill Mr.. Watson, and | have
never been able to realize how / came to
take his life. | make this statement real
izing that ] am about to meet my God.
shank you ALL"
The cap was then drawn over Cliff
ford's face, the rope pulled and the body
swung into the air. The Knot slipped
around under the chin. For two or three
minutes there We're slight struggles. At
the end of six minutes the body was low
cred. and the pulse was found tn he 90
After hanging 13 minutes Clifford WAS
pronounced dead. The doctors thought
shat the neck was not broken and that
Clifford had died from strangnlation.
Clifford slept well after hearing that
there was no further hope Of intcrfcr-
'ence in his behalf. After rising he read
"A newspaper until o'clock, when he
took his breakfast. Warden Sullivan
asked him how he felt, and he replied,
II feel remarkably well, and am salts
fled that everything has been done for me
that could have been done"
Father Mckinley, curate of st. Joseph's
Roman Catholic church, Jersey City
Heights, who has been Clifford's spiritual
adviser, and Father Foye called at the
prison and were Immediately conducted
TO Clifford's cell. They remained with
him to the end.
Among the early callers at the Jail was
Martin Filon of Weehawken, who has
been Clifford's steadfast friend. He has
spared neither time nor money in Cliff
ford's defense, and it is said he has near
iy impoverished himself. He sent Lawyer
Furcy to Washington last week to engage
the assistance of Congressman William
ID. DAILY before the United States SUI
preme court. The justices conferred on
Saturday land informed Congressman
