GERMANY is AWAITING
GREAT BRITATN'S REPLY

Berlin, Sept. 27.-Late yesterday az
ternoon a correspondent showed the
German foreign Office a private dis
match from. London asserting that Lord
Salisbury had informed Count Won
eldt-Wildenhurg the German
ambassador to Great Britain, that the
reply Of the British government to the
German note would agree with that of
the United States. The foreign office
thereupon reiterated the statement
that this assertion was positively false,
a high official saying:
Lord Salisbury has asked for a iew
days in which to consider the matter,
desiring to procure certain information
before giving a final reply. NO an
swer has yet been given, at least no
formal answer"
This repeated emphasizing publicly
of the non-receipt of q formal answer
has deepened the impression that the
London advices concerning the matter
are correct, the opinion being that the
German foreign Office still clings to the
hope of winning England over.
For the most part the influential
Journals follow the lead of the Co
iogne Gazette's inspired article, blam-
ing the United States for China's re-
newed exhibition Of hostile intentions
The Berliner Post, referring to Prince
Tuan's latest edict says: 1T would
be a sad spectacle to see Mr.. Congel
negotiating for peace IN PeSin viii

MRS. SIEBENALER'S DEATH.
Her Untimel-T Demise Saddens Whole
Host of Friends.

One week ago Mrs. Ella Siebenaler
gave birth to healthy girl baby. The
little bundle Of humanity came as a har-
bnger Of joy and the husband and
friends of the mother We're very happy.
Today that mother lies on her bier;
The feeble candle of life of tn einfant was
lighted only for that of the devoted wife
and mother to flicker grow dim and fl
nally to be extinguished altogether.
That is the brief, but sad story of the
passing of the wife of Albert G. Sieben-
aler who represents the sixth ward in
the city council. Where once there was
joy, now there is grief: the somber cloth
of mourning tells the sorrowful tale only
too well.
Complications set in and the unfortu
nate woman fingered between life and
death until Saturday night, when she
| peacefully crossed the dark river of time
to the shores of eternity. BY her side
at the last fateful moment We're her
grief-stricken husband and her sister,
Mrs A. NJ. Weisgerber of Twin Bridges.
Her mother, Mrs. Pecore, who had been
assisting in nursing the sick woman, was
prostrated on Friday last and had to be
removed to st. Paul's hospital. She her
self is now lying very III.
Mrs Siebenaler was born IN MlchlSan
| City, Ind. and was only "a years old.
She came to this city in 1889, and in 1892
was united in marriage to Mr.. Siebenaler
| at Dillon. She was woman OF a charm
ing personality, of marked devotion to
her family and her decease is mourned
by a large circle of friends. She is sur
vived by her husband, mother and sis
ter and by three children, Albert, aged 6;
Frank aged ii months. and the little one

The remains We're removed to Tachelis

will go to the Presbyterian church
