HOLD TURKEY RESPONSIBLE.
Foreigners in No Doubt as to Blame in
Miss Stones Case.

CONSTANTINOPLE,F Feb. 27.-Foreign-
ers here have not the least doubt of Tur-
keys responsibility for the abduction OF
Miss Stone and her companion. They re-
gard it as undeniable that the capture.
the payment of the ransom money, and
the release all occurred on Turkish terri
tory.
1t is assumed that the United States will
soon demand that Turkey repay the ransom
money. which will open the way for de-
velopments that cannot be foreseen. mas
much as the Turks disclaim liability, de-
claring that Bulgaria is responsible. Bull
garia repudiates responsibility.
1t is stated that when Dragoman Gar
giulo returned after the supposed failure
to pay the ransom, owing, the reporters
said to the brigands being scared through
the acknowledgement of the affair by the
American mission. he had actually paid
the money and refilled the money boxes
with rocks, the escort guarding the boxes
as before.
This vas done to keep faith with the
brigands. who stipulated that nobody
should know they had been paid until
they had had time to assure their own
safety.

PRINCE AND CARL SCHURZ.
German Papers Give Circulation to Some
Timely Comments.

| BERLIN. Feb. 2z-Although few news
papers comment upon the press banquet in
New York, Prince Henry's attitude toward
i the press as the Kaiser's representative
and the Kaiser's comparison of Journalists
with his generals are much remarked upon
| here.
| Prince Henry's attention to Carl Schurz
| is especially subject OF popular COM
ment. The "Fossische Zeitung." the favor
! tie organ OF the middle class of Berlin,
prints leader on this feature under the
caption Prince and Revolutionary"
1t praises the Hohenzolierns for their
unlikeness to the Bourbons who learned
nothing and forgot nothing, but it doubts
if Mr.. Schurz's election would have been
ratified if. like Herr Kaufman, in 1901.
he had been chosen burgomaster of
Berlin.
After Taying tribute to Mr. Schurz's
case, it alludes to the official treatment
given the Berliners who fell in the street
fighting in 1e4S. 1t says:
That Carl Schurz fought for German
unity, that he restored, at the peril Of his
life to liberty, to science. and to art the
German poet who had TO pick oakum in
prison ard to submit to the most degrad-
ing treatment, and that he was menaced
with corporal punishment. this, the
brother of the Emperor. will not today ac-
count as his crime. but as his merit. But
ought this justice to be only applicable to
those who live in America and have come
to honor, and not to men who have long
been at rest beneath the green sod of
their native earth?''
The ''Vorwaerts," the Socialist organ.
is naturally little pleased with the sue
cess Of the Kaiser's representative to the
Republic. 1t says:
1t is quite natural that crowds should
throng to see the sights. America has
not produced a Goethe, but it has pro-
duced 4 Barnum."
One of the German reporters in New
York who was shut out from the social
functions writes in q bitter vein of the
launching of the Meteor. He says that
many of those present were intoxicated
with champagne. They ran over the ladies
in their efforts to secure mementos of the
occasion, and everything that was not
firmly secured was carried off until Mr..
Downey was compelled to cease his hos
pitality.

I Senate, then pronounced the benediction
May the spirit of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship
of the Holy Ghost be with us now and

Prince Retires First.
The prince was the first to lead in leav-
ing the chamber. and he was followed by
his suite and the President and his Cabi-
net The Senators. the members OF the
Diplomatic Corps, and others then with
drew, and Chairman Payne moved that as
a further mark of respect the House ad-

This was agreed to and the House ad-
iourned at LES.
At the conclusion Of the memorial cere-
monies Prince Henry and his staff and the
German Ambassador were served with
luncheon IN the Senate Committee on Mill
tary Affairs room, which had been most
tastefully decorated for the occasion.
The Presidents delegates and members
of the Senate and House committees of
arrangements we're present, and there
was no formaity, the prince preferring
to stand with the others rather than be
seated at the small table especially ar
rayed for him.

The President pro tempore then intro
duced the orator.
1T is now the agreeable duty" he
said, "of your Presiding officer to present
the Hon. John Hay, who has been select
ed by committee OF Congress to deliver
the address on this occasion"
Secretary Hay was received without any
demonstration. and as he arose from the
position usually occupied by the reading
clerk, a stiffness as of death fell over the
entire assemblage.
Secretary Hay read his scholarly and
erudite address from manuscript.
McKinlcy's Loving Home Life.
lie spoke OF tne nome life OF President
Mckinley, of his marriage, of the tender
care he gave his wife. of his constant
thought and anxiety for her happiness.
As he went on his voice almost halted
and it seemed as though he spoke with
difficulty OF breathing. so slow did one
word follow the other from his lips.
The effect upon the great assembly was
marked. All over the historic chamber
could be seen the white glitter of hand
kerchiofs as they were brought out, one
by one
Secretary Root was the first to give
vent to his feelings. Tears glistened in
his eyes and rolled down his cheek as he
searched in his pockets. He found the
cambria in the left breast of his coat.
He dried his eyes, but the tears came
faster than he could wipe them away,
and finally, as though he could make
no further effort to prevent them, they
rolled uncOnstrained down each cheek.
Lord Pauncefote, the British Ambassa-
dor. leaned forward, resting his chin in
his hand. with both elbows on the desk
in front of him, and looked earnestly
toward Secretary Hay, intently following
each word.
Secretary Hay concluded at 1:35. hay

The address was warmly applauded by
his auditors. Prince Henry and President
Roosevelt joining in the demonstration.

A SMALL SCARE.
Suspected Colored Boys Found to Be
Suffering With Fever.

Physicians at the Emergency Hospital
last night suspected two colored boys,
who applied for treatment, of being vic
Tins of smallpox.
Health Office officials were notified that
smallpox suspects were at the hospital.
ard the case was thoroughly investigated.
II was then determined that the patients
suffered from fever and other complica-
tons, and not from the dread disease.
The boys put in an appearance at the
hospital about o'clock. They gave the
names of William Stevenson and William
Dias, the former hailing from Philadel-
phia and the latter from Baltimore.
Stevenson, while being examined, told
Policeman Hiblo that he had come here
two days ago from Philadelphia; that he
stopped several days in Baltimore, where
he met Dias. and that both then came 20
this city together.
Das stated that he wanted work, as he
thought Stevenson did. also. and he cor
robOrated the story of the latter fully.
Friends of both boys will be notified of
their condition today if they so desire.

on the 18th of last December, no time has
been lost in the preparation of the bill.
In twenty-five days the committee gave

need of liberal appropriations for their
respective districts.

ing of the bill, the entire River and Har-
Dor Committee working in perfect har-
mony and with one endeavor to treat each
