printed in the North German Gazette
that Baron Won Sternberg used the lang
uage attributed to him, especially that he
did not say Prince Bismarcks policy was
Anticipated. The journalists misunderstood
Baron Won Sternberg as he explained in
his report to the foreign office. l must
caution the members not to attack the
German representative at SO important
post as Washington for matters which
later prove untrue.
Professor Hasse also mentioned that
Baron Won Sternberg married an Amer
lean lady Petitions Of our ministers to
marry foreigners have been treated diff
ferently at different times, which is only
natural Such cases cannot all be decided
by the same formula. The principle has
been held. especially under Count Won
Capriyi, that a German diplomat must
not marry German woman. Prince
Bismarck emphasized the same principle,
but he permitted numerous exceptions.
sternberg VIII Not Reply.
Washington, March 19.-Baron Won
Sternberg, the German minister. has de-
cided not to reply or comment in any way
on the attack made on him in the reich
stag. TO a representative of the Associa-
ted Press the minister said tonight:
..Obyiously 1t would be improper for a
diplomat to comment upon the utterances
or actions of an official of any branch
of his government.
In diplomatic circles 1t is the expecta-
ton based upon European advices that
the German minister, Baron Won Stern
berg, is shortly to be decorated and that
his elevation to the rank of ambassador
will be announced before long.

The republican committee for this

row evening to decide where and when
the convention shall be held to nom
mate candidate To succeed Long.
Nothing has as yet been done by th..
opposition looking to naming n can

looks as though the republicans could
elect their candidate, although wig
orous campaign might upset this.
The question is quietly being agitated
as to whether the populists and demo-
Gratis shall join on one candidate or
not We believe they should. We
have worked tremendously for several
years and nothing should be done At
this time which will make it difficult
to combine In 1904. By that time
conditions may be such as to make it
to run separate tickets
and to do anything now which would
place difficulties in the way Of bar

Legislation Probable Along Lines
Laid Down by Knox.

Washington. Jan. 1S.-Following
the conference at the white house last
night. attended by Senator Aldrich
and Speaker Henderson, there has
bees . great deal Of discussion among
the Republicans Of the senate as to the
prospects of antitrust legislation dur

clusion reached is that some measure
will be passed.
A prominent senator said he thought
there would be legislation this session.
not alone for the bill introduced by
Senator Hoar. but more in the nature
Of suggestions made by Attorney Gen.
eral Knox. One feature Of the Knox
bill that was favorably considered
was that which provided for the pun

question.
The a1ti-Wolcott Republicans lave

that they viii never vote for a Demo

the several candidates of the anti-WoI-
