Berlin, March 9.-Some additional inter
esting comment concerning Chancellor Won
Buelow's enunciations on Anglo-G German
relations and on President McKinleys in
augural speech have appeared here.
one sentence used by the chancellor in
his speech, aimed solely at Russia, has
given great offense in that country. This
was Count Won Buelow's quotation from
Frederick the Greats instructions to his
ambassador at St Petersburg. saying he

lor's expressions. namely that great

A number of German papers say that
President Mckinley. ~ his augural ad-
dress, failed to map out the administra-
TONS programme.

Mckinley was referred to in uncompli-

Those Canned Meats Again.
During Thursdays debate in the Reich
stag Herr Bebel Socialist LEADER
made a strong attack upon the
imperial government. concerning the
meat inspection law, citing the
the fact that the German troops in China
were fitted out with the same American
canned meats which the law now pre-
tends are unwholesome, therefore the
whole law is mere pretext since the
navy department surely would not issue
to the navy food considered to be death
dealing. Herr Bebel said the whole law
was for the benefit of the agrarians. Tho
| government officials present made a very
| weak defense in reply.
The kfeuz Ieftung, commenting upon
President McKinley's inaugural address,
says 1t Is evident that the United States
has turned away from high protection in
order to enable her to conclude her COM
mercial treaties. 1t calls this a shrewd
move on the part of the United States to

RUSSIA'S ACTS IN CHINA.
Evidently Establishing Her Rule in
Northern Provinces in Spite
of Her Assertions.

Berlin, March 9.-The Tageblatt's special
Northern Manchuria, Mongolia and on
the borders of Siberia and China for a
year, and whose reports, hitherto. have
been correct without exception, has fur
nished his paper with long letter, which
is published to-day, containing interest
ing details regarding the Russo-Chinese
agreement on the subject of Manchuria
Mongolia and Turkestan. He proceeds to
give facts concerning the proposed inter-
nal administration of that part of China,
demonstrating that Manchuria will be-
come an integral part of Russia, more so
than even Bokhara. In regard to Mon
golia, he says there is no doubt
protectorate has been establish
ed, and this is evidenced
by the hoisting of Russian flags every
where, the thorough organiza ton of the
district, the establishment of tax collect
ing offices and the opening of branches of
Russo Chinese banks with no one but
Russian officials in charge. All this, vir
tualRy has taken place during the past
six months, and began before the Boxer
outbreak.
Besides establishing direct communi-
cation with LHassa (Thibet) where vic
tory for Russia was scored by an i'm
mense bribe of bars of silver, direct tele-
graph communication now also exist be-
tween the Russians at Kuldja and those
in China, even reaching Sian Flu, where
the Chinese court has been sojourning

RUSSIA'S MOTIVES
THE MANCHURIAN MATTER AND
OUR POSITION.
HAVE MADE NO. AGREEMENT
WITH GREAT BRITAIN or ANY
OTHER POWER.

Our Government Has Discouraged
Special Alliances as to China and
Has Consistently Acquainted All
Powers with Views Expressed to
Amy One of Them--Russia Has Com
stantly Asserted Her Sincerity as
to Manchuria-COunt Cassini and
Secretary Hay Have an Interview.
Washington, March 9.-The official cor
respondence that has passed between the
State Department and the several Powers
interested in the Chinese question, dis
closes the fact that Russia, suspected as
she is by England and perhaps by some
other Powers, of planning to seize and
hold Manchuria as her own, has upon
every occasion, when opportunity served
to draw forth a statement of her motives,
declared emphatically that she had no
such purpose.
On the 10th ultimo the United States
addressed strong representations to China
through Mr.. Conger and Prince Ching and
Ii Hung Chang. China was told that
the United States could not approve any
secret negotiations between China and
any individual Power, looking to ths con-
cession of territory to such Power And
it was further insisted that, to be
valid, any such concession of territory
should be given only with the assent of
all the other Powers. To still further en-
phasize the warning against the beginning
of division of China, it was significant
ly stated that the United States did not
regard the present as an opportune time
for making any concessions Of territory
or even for conducting negotiations for
such concessions.
No Agreement Entered Into.
The United States government has not
entered into any secret or open agree
ment with Great Britain or with any
other individual power, however strong
ly it may sympathize with the British
desire to insure Manchuria against seiz-
ure. On the contrary our government has
from the beginning discouraged such spe-
cial alliances as to China and has adopt
ed the practice of informing any one of
the Powers of the contents of any state
ment it has addressed to any one of them.
1t is felt here that the greatest strength
of our position has lain in this frank and
open method of negotiations and there
is no disposition to abandon it now.
Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador,
called at the State Department to-day and
was with Secretary Hay for half an hour.
Although no statement can be extracted
as to the nature of the interchange, It is
believed that the ambassador took occa-
sion to again assert the sincerity and
propriety of Russia's purpose relative to
Manchuria.

A PARDON FOR LANCASTER.
Senator Bacon is Seeking One-Con-
gressman bartlett sti1I "A Very
Ill Man.

Washington, March 9-Senator Bacon
has had several conferences with the At
torney General relative to the pardon of
Wright Lancaster of Telfair county, who
was convicted about ten years ago of
murder and sent to the penitentiary for
life. Lancaster is one fthe men con-
victed at the same time with Capt. Hall
in trial which was of absorbing interest
to Georgia. The record in the case is
voluminous, and the Senator is now going
through this with the Attorney General.
Senator Bacon will remain in the city
for some days, in order that he may be
with Judge and Mrs. Bartlett. While
Judge Bartlett's physicians express graft
fication at the progress their patient is
making, there is no concealing the fact
that the Congressman from the Sixth dis
trict is a very Ill man, indeed. There is
very little Senator Bacon or any other
friend can do, as Mrs. Bartlett is here,
and the Judge has every possible atten-
ton which physicians and trained nurses
can give, but the Senator has determined
to stay until his friend is on the high
road to recovery.

THE SENATE ADJOURNS.
Has Been Confirming Presidents APP
pOIntments-Mr. Frye Again
President Pro TEN.

Washington, March 9.-After proceedings
session of the Senate was declared ad-
journed sine die at 1855 p. m. to-day. Dur
ing the session practically no business.
except that of executive character was
transacted. The session was called by
the President in order that the Senate
might have opportunity to confirm ap-
polntments made at the beginning of the
new administration. That business ac-
complished, there was nothing further for
the Senate to do.
At the opening of to-days session the
President pro tenn, Senator Frye of
Maine, was inducted into Office, the oath
being administered by Vice President
Roosevelt. Hon. John II. Mitchell, the
recently elected Senator from Oregon, was
presented by his colleague, Senator ST.
mon, and took the oath of office. lie
was given cordial reception by his col
leagues on the floor, many of whom had
served in the Senate with him, and by his
friends in the galleries, who greeted his
appearance with hearty applause.
Through a committee of the Senate,
consisting of Mr.. Hoar and Mr.. Cockrell,
the President informed the Senate that
he had no further communications to
make. He conveyed to senators his cor
dial wishes for their welfare and his
hopes that they might have a happy re-
turn 10 their homes. Without ceremony,
the session was then declared at an end.
For a considerable time after final ad
journment many senators remained on
the floor of the chamber exchanging cor
dial farewells, some of them making en-
gagements for outings during the long re-
cess. 1t was an interesting scene. that
was eagerly watched by the hundreds of
persons who had poured into the galleries

TOLSTOI ExC0MMUNICATED.
Greek Church Formally Excludes
About Its Only True Follower
of Christ.

st. Petersburg, March a-The official
organ of the Holy Synod to-day publishes
the formal accommodation of Count
Tolstoi, the Russian novelist and social
refomer, which was announced early in
the year, as follows:
I'm it's solietude for the children of the
Orthodox Church to guard them from be
ing led into corruption. and in order to
save those who have gone astray the Holy
Synod has deliberated upon the anti
Christian and anti-ecclesiastical teachings
of Count Leo Tolstoi and has deemed it
expedient, in order to preserve the peace
OF the church, to issue a circular dealing
with the heresies of Count Leo Tolstoi
The circular is as follows:
Count Leo Tolstoi, to the grief and
horror of the whole orthodox world, has,
by speech and writing, increasingly striv-
en- to separate himself from all communi-
cation with the Orthodox Church, and this
not only clandestinely, but openly, and in
the knowledge of all persons. All at
tempts to dissuade him from this con-
duct have proved without avail Conse-
quently the Orthodox Church no longer
considers him to be one of it's members,
and cannot regard him as such as long as
he does not repent and does not become
reconciled to the church. We, therefore,
place on record his apostacy from the
church and pray the Lord to restore him
to comprehension of the truth. We
pray Thee, therefore, o Merciful God, who
does not desire the death of a sinner, to
hear us, have mercy on him and restore
him to Thy holy chuch. Amen.

Dwellings Ruined and Public
Buildings Destroyed.


Wills Point, Tex, March AT II o'clock
this morning a cyclone passed through
the west side of this town. demolishing
everything in it's track. Four people are
dead and about twenty injured. Fourteen
dwelling houses are entirely ruined and a
number Of others are badly wrecked The
public school building is a total loss. The
cotton oil mill is damaged and the largest
gin plant is in splinters. Wires are blown

Black clouds had been hanging in the
southwest all morning. The atmosphere
was heavy and at intervals there had
been clustering showers of rain. It was
Just at noon when there was a long roar
of rumbling thunder, puff of wind and
then the air was thick with flying tim
bers. The cyclone came from the south
west and held to a straight northeas;
course. It's path was about three hundred
yards wide. 1t struck the. northwest
quarter Of town, in the residence section.
No house is left whole, those that are
not irreparably wrecked are in the minor
ity. Most OF them are demolished-mere
heaps Of debris that offer opportunity for
the junk man. Household furniture and
utensils are strewn farther than the eye
can reach.
