BITTER TOWARD AMERICA.
German Papers Call the United States
an Unreliable Ally.

Bremen, Aug 25.-German soreness
over the fact that this country had no
part in the capture of Pexin is still I'M
healed The entry of the allies into
the Chinese capital is almost entirely
ignored. and the press which has been
prophesying such brilliant achievements
for Count Won WalderSee. is now turn
ing in rage against the United States.
The Hanover Courier is the most out
spoken in this respect. Speaking of the
concord of the powers in China, it says
that the United States is the one unre-
liable ally and is in the highest degree
a disturbing element in what would
otherwise be concerted action. Tt con-
tinues that although the bravery and
prowess of the American troops de-
serve the fullest acknowledgment, the
dubious attitude of the United States
government is most exasperating.'
1T would be much better for the gov
eminent to withdraw it's troops alto
gether," the paper goes on, than to
influence unfavorably the military OPP
erations through it's continued lack Of
decision. This menace to European
plans, which is constituted by the policy
of the United States. brings another
danger in it's train-that of other dis
contented elements in the allied forces
to assume the American attitude"

GEN. BEATTY FOR BRYAN.
Says His Party is INCREASINGLY
Wrong as to the Philippines.

Columbus, O., Aug. 25.-Gen. John c.
Beatty of this city today, in a state
ment published at the request Of the ma
tional Democratic committee at Chi
cago, bolts the Republican party and
declares that he will support and vote
for Mr.. Bryan. General Beatty was for
years one of the most ardent support
ers of President Mckinley, and has sew
eral times been a candidate for the
Republican gubernatorial nomination
The reason for his desertion of his party
this year and evidently for all time to
come is the policy the national admin
istration has followed in its treatment
of the situation in the Philippines. He
said:
The Republican party of today Is a
sham. Only in name does it resemble
the strong party which came to the
rescue of the nation in her hour of
peril That party stood for equal rights
to all, special privileges to none. It
held all men free and equal, no matter
what their parentage or birthplace.
The Republican party Of the present
day denies to the men in the Philip
pines the rights it gives to every other
citizen

CONVICTION OF A CLERK.
Recalls the Theft and Mysterious Re
turn of 100000.

London, Aug. &c. E. Goss, former
ly a clerk in PARIS bank, was ar
raigned in the Mansion House police
court on a charge of stealing 100000
from that institution in January, 1899.
Notes to the value of &60000 were
stolen from the bank Three days af-
terward, at a meeting of the directors,
it was announced that $4,000 had been
returned through the mails. Various
stories appeared in the newspapers as
to how the notes were returned. One
was to the effect that the person who
sent them had called on a friend who
was suffering from alcoholism. He saw
the notes sticking out of the friends
pocket and obtained permission to re-
turn them.
In the letter which he sent he plead
ed for leliity for his friend and intimat-
ed that the rest of the notes would soon
be forthcoming. 1t was announced on
February s. 1900, that the remaining
notes. of the value Of 100000, had been
found in pass book lying on a counter
in the bank.

Mr. Bird there and an anxious look

RUSHING Them IN
Raids of Joints Are Continued
by Police.

There was no rest for the weary joint
lists Friday. The work of gathering them
into the station proceeded with the usual
regularity, and when night came the
tired force of day police went home to
rest and to dream of beer kegs on legs
running up alleys to avoid arrest and to
see peaceful visions of Mayor Drew, the
police force and the jointists sitting to-
gether in council consulting on the adj
visibility of using muriatie acid and
stale beer to wash away the stains on
the city building. The arrests for the
day were practically the same as the
day before. At o'clock the police began
to arrive at the station with the joint
lists. The procession was headed with
Officer John Lucas, bringing in George
Klauer and when the rush was over it
was found that Geo. Buford, Geo. Klauer,

DISAPPOINTED MOB.
Tt is Feared That There May Be
Further Disturbance at Akron.

Cleveland. O.. Aug. 25.-Governor
Nash fears there may be more rioting
at Akron. For that reason troops will
be held there until Monday at least.
This decision was reached today at a
conference held between the governor
and Assistant Adjutant General Adams.
Governor Nash said he would keep the
troops ON duty until he was absolutely
satisfied that the lawless element would
make no further trouble.
THE i'll feeling among the Akron citi-
zens who participated in the riots seems
to be directed especially against the
city officials" said Governor Nash II
am afraid that when the lawless ele-
ment fully realizes that the negro was
taken into the city and sentenced and
then taken away again without their
knowledge about the matter, trouble
may arise again. The state will protect
life and property in Akron as long as
necessary
Speaking concerning the punishment
of the rioters the governor said the
state officials will take no hand in the
prosecution, unless the civil authorities
at Akron should express their inability
to cope with the situation.

Hungate was the attorney for the joint
lists and he had a very easy time as he
had nothing to do but sit still and look

make a remark is when he moves for a

there will be several cases next week
in which he will have some work to do
as they expect to actually produce a few
