district court today for an assault upon

committed on Jan. 4. This affair has
been one of lively interest to the He
brews of the North End district, for
two reasons: First because Volpe re-
mained in bed nearly two weeks AMI
there were Indications that Gertz was
to be the respondent in a civil action

Volpe belonged to a beneficial order

confined to his house. The contention
was that a dispute arose over two
wash boilers and some oats, which
Volpe claimed Gertz stole from him.
volpe said that Gertz struck him and
made his face bleed. Gertz swore that
Volpe struck the first blow. using a
piece OF board. This Voipe denied; but

SEIZURE OF STEAMERS.
Berlin. Jan. 19.t-In the reichstag to-
day the debate on Herr Moeller's joint
Interpretation Oh the government re-
garding the seizure Of German steam-
ers by British warshlps, was opened.
Herr Moeller said vigorous expression
must be given to the Indignation felt
at the fact that the subsidized line, TO
which the seized vessels belonged, had
observed the strfctest neutrality and he
expressed the opinion that the matter
should furnish the opportunity of de-
fining the rights of mail steamers The
unloading OF the Bundesrath, he added,
could have been effected in few days.
The delay showed want of ronsidera-
tion for international courtesy, and Ii
should be made incumbent upon the
British officials 20 announce whether
and to what extent their views in re-
gard TO the~rights of mail steamers had
been changed. The action the speaker
continued. appeared arbitrary and -
was Germany's duty TO demand secu'
ity for her ships in the future frontal
maritime nations. Germany. he point
ed out. was so neutral that even her
arms factories had been prohibited
from supplying the bellgerents.
The present case afforded rare spec
tacle OF the unity Of all paHties. Great
Britain had not always maintained the
neutrality marking Germany's present
attitude and Englishmen should take
care not to draw on themselves the
hatred OF the civilized world This
statement was greeted with loud
cheers.
