GERMAN INDUSTRIAL TROUBLES,
Depression Is ncreasing-Iron Con-
 panies Pass Dividends

Berlin, Oct. 1S.-"After the brief re- vival which marked the week pre- vious," begins the Frankfurter Zei- lungs bourse report, there followed last week complete depression and des- pondency, worse than had been thought possible. The optimistic hopes which many had begun to cherish again prov ed deceptive. Neither in industry nor anywhere else was the slightest traee of permanent improvement perceptible. On the contrary, such strikingly bad news came that there is absolutely 10 cause for wonder that universal des- pondency Is increasing
 The bad news referred to was the reduction of dividends or the passing panies in the iron trade. Such instances reports of the iron companies express gloomy views as to the situation, de- claring ths the crisis has not yet been reached. The strongest proof of de- clining consumption is supplied by ca ch days events. The home market places but very few orders, and the compan- ies are, therefore, compelled to work on foreign orders at unprofitable prices. The Rothe and Erde Iron works passed the dividend as compared with a de- claration of 12 per cent last year. The Huldschinsky Iron works declared a dividend of 4 per cent as against 12 last year and the Boehum & Gusstanl Iron works declared 1874 per cent as against 16 2-3 ~er cent last year. The latter repor $ orders on hand for 77.000 tons, as compared with orders for 164.-

WHAT BOTHA MAY DO
A New Phase of the South
 African War
Possible Retaliation by the Boer Commander for the Execution of Cape Rehels-Some Anxiety in London.

London, Oct. 1S.-The possibility of Boer reprfsals for the execution of the death penalty in the cases of Care rebels at Middelburg, Vryburg ani elsewhere is discussed by military men and officials with evident signs of anx- iety. Lotter was one of the most des- perate leaders of the Boer forces re- cruited in the Dutch districts of Cape Colony, and his capture has been quickly followed by a military trial and death. Other trials are in progress. and two farmers who have been twice in arms against the British have per ished on the scaffold. The real reason for the proclamation of martial law n Cape Colony is now apparent. The au- thorities, after playing with treason for two years, have now decided to make d determined effort to stamp 1t out with merciless severity. and have suspendel the ordinary forms of law as a neces- sary safeguard for the prevention of a general uprising of Dutch sympathiz- CTS. The question which IS now upper most in the minds of military experts is the probable action of Botha, De Wet, De La. Key. and other Boer command CTS. Will they allow Lord Kitchener 10 make distinction between Boers and Cape rebels and carry out the death penalty on a large scale as a means Of intimidatiag Boer sympathizers and expressing the revolt. or will they re- taliate whenever they capture British soldiers, and shoot their prisoners in stead of taking away their arms and releasing them? If reprisals are or dered b. the Boer comma nders nothing will be lacking to render the present war the most horrible of recent times One official with whom I talked yes terdaY did not conceal his aDDreheu- sion lest the policy of retaliation should be adopted on the Boer side and the final stage of the war be converted into a chapter of horrors.
 Lord Kitchener has reported the cap ture of Scheepers. who has been one of the most successful raiders in Cape Colony. He is a natural scout and guerilla of exceptional daring. and has succeeded in eluding pursuit for over eight months among the mountains south of the Orange river. Recent dis patches have described him as vic tim of enteric fever. his guerilias hay ing scattered over the country in small bands of dozen or more fighting men. This force. like Lotter's, was made up largely of Cape rebels. If Scheepers. like Lotter be condemned to death, an- other terrible example will be made oc treason, and Botha and the other Boer generals will be forced to consider whether retaliation Is a possible expe- dient for the protection of the allies.

THE MEXICAN TRADE
There was a Sad Falling Off in the

 The exports amounted to S14S. .S3S, silver va,ue, a decrease of $1. 00.02l. The most unsatisfactory thing about the decrease in exports is the fact that had it not been for the drain on the ccurtry's precious metals, or in other words, on its currency, the decrease would have been much greater.

be apparent that it Is no longer possible to improvise or suddenly crea,e on short notice the class of men desired for the reason that one, two or even three years must be spent to properly train our modern man-of-wars men This work must be done in time of peace if we are to be at all prepared when war comes; in other words, if We are to have a properly manned navy in time of war we must prepare it in time of peace.
 'To effect this training the bureau should have the necessary means namely. suitable ships to properly train the enlisted personnel of the navy and the training ships where the men can be assembled and prepared by prelim- mary instructions and discipline for the fuller training carried out on seagoing ships. The system adopted two years ago of enlisting young landsmen and training them for seamen is giving good results, notwithstanding the fact that the bureau has not had as suitable ships as should be provided. and the demands of the service have not per- mitted keeping the men under training as long a time as was desirable. Up to the present time these newly en- listed landsmen have been assembled on board our receiving ships. which do not possess proper facilities for giving them the preliminary training they should receive. With suitable barracks larger numbers can be properly housed. the young recruits can be kept thei Q for a period of six or eight months, ali of this time being drilled. instructed and disciplined, and their health cared for infinitely better than if housed in old. unsanitary hulks. al preliminary to the seagoing instructions afioat.
 An opportunity will also be afford ed of wedding out those who are unsat- isfactory, thus avoiding much expense and wasted instruction. Any system looking to the development of our navy should avoid the error of not having the personnel keep pace with the ma terial. If we are adding to the navy each year new ships and new guns, all of the most modern type. we should certainly not fail to provide also the trained officers and men with which they must be manned. The fact should not be lost sight of that 1t requires a much longer time to produce a naval officer than it does to produce a bat tleship.
 Ut is recommended that legislation be enacted providing that the quota of enlisted men and apprentices shall he as follows: Twenty-Five thousand men and 2.500 apprentices under training at ing ships. This is an increase of 3.001 men whose training should be begun and pursued during the coming year"
