which will make growth enough TO
furnish good fall pasture or spring
pasture for cattle or sheep, and then il
may be plowed under in season to plant
potatoes again or some other later crop
We do not Ike the idea of growing two
crops of potatoes on the same land for
two years in succession, but there are
many other crops which would follow
well after the rye was plowed in, and
nearly all crops can be taken off in time
TO SOW rye after them, which will be
large enough to pillow under in the
spring. But do not trust to the rye
alone as a fertilizer, but use it as an
addition to the other fertilizer applied.

GERMANY IN LINE.
Ambassador White mt berlin Gables
the Governmen fs Acceptance of
the American Plan.


Washington, Dec. 3.--The victory Of
American diplomacy in China appears
to be complete. Secretary Hay On
Saturday received cable dispatch
from Ambassador White at Berlin
stating that the German government
had decided to recedc from its de-
mands upon China and to accede to
the suggestions made by the United
States. Baron Fava, the Italian am
bassador, later called at the state de-
partment and stated that his govern
ment had decided to withdraw its de-
mands and to accept the notifications
presented by the United States.
Inasmuch as it is known here that
Great Britain was Withholding a sim
liar expression only for the purpose OF
permitting Germany to speak first,
and as Russia. Frsnce and Japan had
already signihed their acceptance of
the American programme, the agree
ment appears to be complete. and an
other great triumph has been scored
by Secretary Hay.
One feature of the demands to
which Germany stood committed was
that they should be final and in the
nature of an ultimatum. The United
States government was opposed to
this because in the event of China's
refusal to comply on the grounds
that the demands were excessive the
powers would be committed to an en-
forcepent of the demands. This gov
ernnent therefore sought to have the
ultimatum excluded or modified, and
several days ago received encouraging
assurances from Great Britain, Russia
and France.
Washington. Dee. administrator
officials continue sanguine that the
ministers of the powers at Picking will
soon reach common ground of agree
ment in the demands to be made upon
the Chinese imperial government in
satisfaction for the Boxer outrages.
The state department is in commune
cation with the ministers and ambas-
sadors of the United States to the
European courts, and adyices which
have come from them from time to
time lead the officials here TO hope that
the powers will be brought to the posi-
tion maintained by the United States
in dealing with the Chinese, viz: that
there should not be demands made
upon the imperial government which
it is not able TO fulfill. Our government
has persistently held 10 this view in
the progress of the negotiations be-
tween the ministers at Pel<ing, and If
the principle of this contention can be
maintained in the combined note to he
handed to the Chinese plenipotentiaries
a decided advantage will be had at the
start. The attitude of our government
on this subject has been made clear to
Mr.. Conger. The meeting between him
and the German and French ministers
Saturday at Picking presumably was in
compliance with the minister's lates.
Instruction from Washington. Noth'
ing has been heard from Mr.. Conger
by the state department for several
days

FLOOD IN ROME.
Causing Great Ruin-Thrce
Lives Are Lost.

Rome, Dec. 3.-The Tiber has over
flowed its banks, and the entire lower
part of the city is threatened. Three
lives have been lost in the flood, and
much damage is reported from the
country and from the district of the
city affected. The flood is caused by
the recent heavy rains, which have so
swollen the stream that the water
level has reached an unprecedented
height. The more elevated parts Of
Rome are crowded with refugees who
were forced to abandon their mum
dated homes. Most of the homeless
people belong to the poorer classes,
and few have been able to save any
of their belongings. Many landslips
have occurred along the railways,
blocking traffic. News from the rural
districts along the Tiber shows that
great damage has been done to farms
and cattle. The rise of the Tiber ex-
ceeds that of 1870. but the damage
has been limited by the recently con-
structed bikes at the lowest points.
The Pantheon and the Forum, the
neighboring streets, and a part OF the
Hospital San Spirito are inundated.
The surrounding country and the
Protestant cemetery outside st. Paul's
gate are also submerged. Railroad
service Is greatly retarded.
