BERLIN. March 1.-Emperor William
has accepted the resignation of five officers
of the naval staff. including Captain Oben-
heimer who commanded the German
cruiser Irene at the time of the capture of
Manila by the American forces. Captain
Obenheimers resignation, II Is asserted,
had nothing to do with the Philippine Incl
dent in which the Irene figured. His con-
duct at that time was justified by the Ger
man navy department, and as Prince Henry
reported by Admiral Dewey and also by
Prince Henrys report of July. 1888, the text
of which was made public here to-day. 1t
simply reads:
THE Irene brought off a number of Span
ish women and children who had got into
distress on Island Grande, in Subig bay.
She sighted there an insurgent steamer
which disappeared at once. Upon her re-
turn from Island Grande the Irene passed
two United states cruisers which did not
sneak TO her."

grOcs were ynchcd-Onc in Texas
and one in Illinois. The crime was
the same-the usual crime tina makes
men everywhere full of righteous in

negro was lynched after his guilt had
been ascertaincd. The hundreds of

The Texas mob had no resentment
against negroes as such. but only
against the black brute who was
guilty OF the worst of crimes. In
Illinois Il negro WAS lynched for Il
crime that (according to the SPRING
field RcpubHcan) would no more than
imprison II white youth for short
time under the law However that
may be, the mob, after lynching the
negro criminal, proceeded to attack
II company Of unoffending negroes,
shoot and destroy he houses in which
they lived.

dice-TeXas, which stopped with the
punishment of the criminal, or Hi
nois, which visited punishment upon
innocent and inoffensive negroes
merely because the criminal belonged

are lovely, particularly in the spring
time, when the ground is carpeted in
green and our trees and shrubs. like our
beautiful maidens, are decked in pink,
and the birds sing and make love to each
other, much to the distress and discOm-
future of our soldier boys, to whom these
things are reminders OF the days when
they made love to coquettish maidens.
But after the drill hours are over and the
weather being so pleasant and the roads
good, we have bicycle riding, carriage
drives, fishing and boat riding, straw

The opinion OF the United States
Supreme Court last Monday in the
Alabama suffrage case was delivered
by Justice Holmes, who before his
appointment to that exalted tribu-
nal was Chief Justice of the Massa-
chusetts Supreme Court. This is a
most significant fact, and it will be
regarded by broad-minded men in all
parts of the country as a most en-
cOuraging one as we'll. In the war
between the States Justice Holmes
held a commission in the United
States Army, and made an enviable
record as a soldier The enfranclise-
ment of the negro was the direct re-
suit OF that war The South has been
compelled, in defence OF its civiiza-
ton, to place restrictions upon the
exercise of suffrage by the negro.
Justice Holmes opinion substantial
ly afiirms the legal right ofthe South
to do this without interference by
the Federal courts If the negroes
who are deprived OF the voting fran
chise have Il grievance, they must
seek redress from the ''political de-
partment' Of the Government. The
Federal courts cannot provide the
remedy for political grievances OF
