KAISER'S PRIVY COUNCILLOR.
Herr Goldhg Enthusiastic Over American Progress Development and
Metfods-Brngs Messages Of Good Will

Herr Ludwig Max Goldberger. royal
privy councillor of commerce, member of
the Imperial German Consultative Board
fer Commercial Measures, Of Berlin, Ger
many, has arrived in ;his city on tour
of America, to study American Industrial
and commercial methods. and to enquire
into economic conditions prevailing here.
His finding on the varicua subjects will
be submitted by Herr Goldberger to the
authorities of his country on his return
to Germany.
Herr Goldterger he's visited New York,
Boston Pittsburg, Cleveland, and other
manufacturing and financial centres on
his tour Before he consented TO receive
visitors or newspaper men yesterday he
paid his respects to Dr.. yon Eolleben, the
German Ambassador here.
Enthusinstic Over America.
When seen at the New Willard last
night the Kaiser's privy councillor ex-
pressed his most enthusiastic admiration
for the immense undertakings in this
country, from a commercial and manu-
featuring viewpoint. He was enthusiastic
and sincere in his expressions Of the
friendly feeling which exists among the
German PEOPLE for the people of this
country lie stated he did not think
there was a greater admircr of American
enterprise and energy than Emperor
William himself.
Gcrmany's Friendship.
"Our Emperor is but rejecting the
sentiments of the country at large by his
present friendly attitude toward the Unit
ed States" said Herr Goldberger. His

A second arrest in the same house on
complaint of Mr.. Victory. was made last
night when John McDermott. aged fifty
years. taller. was lodged at No. l sta
tion, charged with trying to avoid pay
ment of his board bill. The complainant
alleges that McDermott owes about SIS
for board and lodging. The prisoner has
been in this city for four years. He came
from Philadelphia.
There was report last night that
other arrests might follow, but no war
rants are out SO far as known. Mr. Vic

CITIZENS SHARE OF THE DISTRICT
EXPENSES DECLARED INEQUITABLE,
Washington Association Presents Plea to the Com
mssioners Regarding the Responsibility of the
Government for Common Expenses.

The District Commissioners have re-
Washington Citizens Association a copy
of the resolution adopted by that organ
ization az its last meeting with reference
to responsibility of the United States Gov
ernment in the common expenditures OF
the District of Columbia.
A number of propositions are set forth
in q preamble, one of which IS that the
District of Columbia was established by
the United States Government as a na-
tional capital for the special needs and
use of the United States Government. BY
the Constitution, it is stated, Congress is
authorized to exercise exclusive lcgisla-
tion over the District. and that, acting
under this authority, Congress has as
sumcd entire control of municipal affairs,
even to determining what taxes the pri-
vate citizen shall pay. and for what pur-
poses the revenue shall be used.
Owns More Than Onc-HnIf.
1t is further set forth that the United
States Government owns more Than one
half Of the property in the District, on
which 1t does not and never did pay any
taxes, and prior TO 1876 it paid no part
Of the District expenses. 1t is also stat
ed that the District has never received a
dollar or an acre of land for a school
fund. as have all the States and Terri
tories of the Union. The schools require
nearly one-third Of the District revenues.
and yet it is not possible TO give full
days schooling to several grades in the
public schools.
The preamble states that the District
pays more than four times as much, in
the form Of internal revenue, for the

America, which is in no way actuated by
diplomatic motives and considera tions. No
greater proof of this need be required
than the coming visit to this country OF
Prince Henry, whose trip will serve to
strengthen the friendship between the two
nations
Speaking of his investigations, Herr
Goldberger said: While not expecting
to find perfection anywhere, let me as
sure you that ] am filled with admiration
at that which l have thus far seen in
this country, and that without envy it's
industrial development calls forth my
deep appreciation. What has been ere
ated here out of the earth's treasures by
human brains. human art, and human en-
durance-that is what impresses me SO
greatly. The American manufacturers
and merchants have opened to mankind
"a new world indeed, and placed the re-
suits of intelligence and labor ct the dis
posal of all nations.
Two Nations Nearly Alike.
Our two countries, the United States
and Germany, present many similarities
in their economical development Both
commenced comparatively late in COM
peting with the older Industrial States.
but the success Of each has come with
rapid strides"
From here Herr Goldberger will pro-
ceed to Chicago, and thence to San
Francisco, where he is most desirous to
study the Pacific Coast situation in

tries. He intends remaining in this
