Berlin, December 8.-Mr. Krugers s
non-reception here and the reasons
leading thereto will be made the sub
ject OF an Interpolation in the Reich
stag early in the coming week, on the
first budget debate. The excitement on
the subject is still deep and far-reach-
ing, as evidenced by today's Die Ma
ton. which contains an article by Pro-
fessor Theodore Mommsen, who ap-
Sproves of Emperor William not re-
ceiving the Boer statesman, as being
more dignified and more just than If he
had received him and then confessed
his powerlessness to avert the south
African tragedy, which is now going on
toward the final act.
The Vissiche Zeitung takes a similar
view and says that "hypocritical
France, which is seeking to embroil
Germany with England. would have
left Germany in the lwch, probably
confederating with England against
Germany. after succeeding in ruptur-
ing the bonds of Anglo-German friend
ship"
the subject of President Mckinley
message to congress is significant as
expressing the views and aims of the
moderate German agragrians- 1t says:
cit does not matter if the Americans
lose the German meat trade, slnSe
American manufactured imports to
Germany will enormously increase
els N
many, Austro-Hungary and Switzer-
land. If Germany, in the projected
treaties initiates the Dingley tariff how
can the Americans complain? 1t would
only be an act of self-defence."
The article then proceeds to enumer-
ate the many apparent unfairnesses ir
the tariff relations with the United
States.

DUBLIN, April 6--Lord Roberts dis
patch describing the disaster ut Red-

sternnuon. It brought the populacc
with a quick turn from the rejoicing
over the queens visit to the great issues
OF the war and cast sudden gloom over
the gaiety of the party at the castle.
From one who was guest ut the
banquet given to the queen yesterday,
II was ascertained that her majesty
looked exceptionally well and discussed
the topics Of the day with her usual
keen perception. She appeared, how
ever, to be getting so short sighted as
to be almost blind.
Her Majesty will probably leave Ire

FAULKNER ARGUES
In Behalf Of Senator Clark, Of Mon
tana-PrOsecution the Result Of a
Conspiracy.

In Behalf Of Senator Clark, Of Mon
Prosecution the Result Of a
Conspiracy.
WASHINGTON. April G.-Former
United States senator Faulkner, of
West Virginia, in the Clark case to-day
charged corrupt motives in the prosecu.
tion, saying that It was the result of a
combination OF wealth and perjury. He
laid the blame for the proceeding at
the door OF Marcus DAILY and his agents.
alleging that It was in no wise sus,ain-
ed by public sentiment In the state of
Montana.
Mr.. Faulkner contradlcted the story
that Mr.. ClarEs financial contributions
prior to the sitting of the Montana leg
Islature had been used to forward his
own interests in connection with the
senatorial contest. The senator was, he
said, only leader OF the anti-Daly
movement and the part he was to per-
form was that of supplying the funds
which no one would deny he had per-
feet hight to do. Instead of appearing
as candidate in the state campaign,
Mr.. Clark had in explicit terms. refused
to permit the use of his name. With
reference to the destruction OF bank
checks, Mr.. Faulkner said this course
was usual after the close of political
campaigns.
Mr.. Faulkner defended the action Of
the Republican legislative caucus In de-
claring for Mr.. Clark.
He dwelt at length upon the charge
made by the defense that the prosecu-
tion was the result of a conspiracy,
quoting State Senator Cullen, Lawyer
Corbett. Witness RIngwall and others
in support of this theory, He urgad
that 1t was lnconcelvable that the CLARK
managers would have delegated 80
much to whlteside as was claimed
when they knew that he was an enemy
in disguise.
