COUNT WHO FOUGHT FOR BoERs
Sternberg Says That Germany and
All Europe Should Join Hands
With England.

London, Feb. 5.-Count Adelbert Stern
berg, who took part in the Boer campaign
and who declares that the treatment he
has received from the British press and
official and nonotlcial Eng1shmen leaves
him no cause to be an Anglophile, has
written letter to the Times, in which
he says: ... ..- ....-... =.~.. -
While England is hated. the Englishman is
respected and loved. The hatred always
arises from sense Of moral and mental
injury and to this extent the continent has a
right to hate England, because her policy Is
at all times directed to promoting CONT
mental compile ations. The continent does not
understand the Boer war and attacks Eng
lands political morality because it misun-
derstands the political principle which Eng
land represents, the principles which made
England's greatness and political egotsm
The economic advantage to be derived from
the gold fields was merely a contributory
|,cause of the South African war. The real
cause, making action imperative, was the
English principle, the essence of which is
free trade and straightforward competition
On the continent this feeling is not under
stood because the continent does not enjoy
the blessings OF civilization and govern
1nent based on the word straight
Count Sternberg says he always thought
England was the enemy of the continent
until he visited the United States and
studied the economic conditions there. He
now believes that the continental hatred
of England is ungrateful and that the
continent ought to awake and recognize
that it's true enemy is arising in The
west, like great sun of gold whose frs
rays already have been projected across
the Atlantic. Germany and all Europe
should join with England"

TALK OF "CRIMPING'
BRITISH SHIP OWNERS WORRIED
They Expect Congress VIII Pass q
Ship Subsidy Bill, to Their
Great Detr1ment.

London, Feb 5.-At the annual meeting
OF the Chamber Of Shipping of the United
Kingdom to-day, several points interest
ing to the United States were raised.
Colonel Emil Ropner, M. p, president of
the organization, referring to "crimping''
ana blood money" in the United States,
SAID chamber earnestly hoped the British
ambassador at Washington would
succeed in inducing the United
States government to introduce legisla-
tion making "crimping" a<criminal Of
tense. Regarding ship subsidies, Colonel
Ropner said the. United States probably
would pass a ship subsidy BILL with the
result that there would be rapid extern
sion of the United States mercantile navy
and keener competition. which would re-
quire all the energy and enterprise of
British ship owners to meet ,....,-., -
The chamber unanimously passed a
resolution urging the British government
to make an effort to secure the exemption
of British ships from the payment OF the
tonnage tax levied at United States ports
and use it's good offices to induce the
United States, pending further legislation,
to enforce the present federal and stat e
laws In regard to the desertion of seamen
and the payment Of blood money"

Almost exactly four years ago the Spanish

ANTAG0NIZES AGRARIANs
German Chancellor Will Not He'll
H. Landed AristOcracy


Berlin, Feb. 5.-A preponderance of
press and public opinion seems unques-
tionably to support the imperial chan
cellor, Count Won BueloW, in resisting the
demands of the landed aristocracy for an
increase in the tariff above the rates pro-
V1ded by the new bill. The discomfort of
this powerful section Of the government S
supporters adds to the difficulties of the
chancellor's position and causes gossip 10
the reichstag lobbies to the effect that if
the bill fails Won Buelow's chancellorship
will be discredited before the country and
the emperor.
The administration has taken its stand
!, against the agararians after the most
careful examination OF the situation and
with the conviction that the country will
support it. Nothing will be done without
the emperor's fullest knowledge. The
ministry is determined in no case to ac-
cept higher agricultural duties than the
bill designs. y @@5.: s. Y : z5=-=&= ~ >
