(Special.)-A special from Newport News
to the effect that the large plant OF the
Eagle Shoe Company. which has been To-
Gated in this city for over thirty years.
would probably be moved from here there,
caused great deal of uneasness here
to-day, but all fear was soon allayed by
a positive statement from Mr.. V. NJ
Fleming manager and part owner of the
factory, to the effect that there was moth
ing in the report, and that the plant would
remain in Fredericksburg. He stated
that inducements had been offered from
Newport News. but that the company
had no intention of leaving this city.
The plant is one of the largest and most
prosperous in the South. and its removal
would be blow to Fredericksburg, as it
gives employment to a large number OF
persons.

the minister and others were in favor of

anti-organ portion of the congregation
thereupon went SO far as to express a
desire for the resignation of the pastor,
Mr.. Newbill. who has been in charge OF
the church for nearly two years. The
organ was, however. removed some time
since. and Sunday the minister left the

DESIRE OF WILHELM
NO LAND-GRABB1NG, OF COURSE

New York, March II am informed
from a Trustworthy source, says the Ber-
lin correspondent of the Herald, that the
ultimate object Of Prince Henry's visit
to Washington is to bring about an agree
ment by which Germany will be permitted
to maintain a large fleet in Caribbean
waters to serve for the protection Of Ger
man settlers and property rights i'm
perilled by the frequent South American
revolutions.
In official correspondence the fleet of
German warships assembled at La Guayra
is styled as that of the American station.
Captain Stiege of the Vineta has just re-
ceived the title of commodore, and will
be commander of the South American
feet.
Although the fleet was sent to Vene-
zuela only for the enforcement of rights
guaranteed to German capital and citi-
zens, 1t already consists of five vessels
ard is intended to increase this number
steadily. "
A difficult issue is the acquisition of a
repair dock and coaling station. The hope
is entertained here that no objection will
be made to the maintenance of the feet
In the West Indies because 1t is intended
to be entirely for defensive purposes and
not to acquire territory. Protection is
desired especially because the Berlin gov
eminent now undertakes the task of Ill
recting the German migration movement
to South America, hitherto in charge OF
societies. -....- 20. - -
