Special Cable Despatch to THE Sun.
LONDON, Sept. 9.-Congressman MqNary
Of Massachusetts has just arrived in London
from Berlin, where he and the other Con-
gressmen who had attended the meeting
Of the Interparliamentary Union at Brus-
sels were entertained by the American
Commercial Association.
Mr.. McNary says that the sentiment Of
American business concerns in Berlin and
Germany generally, who deal in machinery,
electrical supplies and all classes Of manu-
featured goods, as we'll as raw products,
food produ cts, &C., is unanimous in con-
sidering the situation grave in regard to
the pr liability Of q commercial trade or
tariff war between Germany and the United
States. The American Commercial Asso-
citation. he says. endeavored in the most
vigorous language to. impress the Con-
gressmen with the absolute. necessity Of
doing something to bring about reciprocal
trade relations between Germany and the
United States at tke forthcoming session
OF Congress.
The members Of the American CONNER
oial Association, says Mr.. McNary. are
most emphatic in opposing the view Of
the stand-pat high protectionists in the
United States, that Germany would not
enter into q commercial war with America.
They assert that they have the most posi-
tive, Trustworthy information that Ger
many intends to enforce the provisions
Of her new tariff vigorously against Ameri-
can imports. unless the United States meets
her half way and gives the German ex-
porters fair opportunity in the American
market. They declare that this, In their
judgment, would mean q serious, in fact. q
tremendous loss to American exporting
interests and would spell ruin to American
trade with Germany.
Several Of these men are so impressed
by the statements Of the high tariff news
papers in the United States and the fact
that those in favor Of high tariff are in a
great majority in Congress, which gives
little hope Of the forthcoming session
enacting reciprocal legislation, that they
declare they are getting their affairs in shape
preparatory to packing their trunks and
leaving Germany in the fall for the United
States.
Most OF the congressman in the party
were Republicans and were cautious in
their remarks as to their probable attitude
on the question. while the Democrats openly
sympathized with the representatives Of
the Commercial Association. But the Re-
publican Congressman admitted privately
that tho situation was far more serious
than they had expected. They also acknowl-
edged that the people Of the United States
did not realize a. yet the seriousness Of
the impending conflict. They expressed
doubt however, In view Of tho big pro-
and the fact that the American press
steadily contended that Germany would not
proceed TO extremes, that Congress would
do anything. They felt that II the Ger
mans were really determined to insist on
reciprocity then q rupture Of trade 70
lations would inevitably occur.

MELOISE DE ARMAS'S STORY.

appear against her. Magistrate Moss said
that III no complainant appeared on Mon

defendants head. Instead Of sticking to
the comparatively simple story she told
on Friday, the dancing girl told new one
yesterday.

INDIAN PHILOSOPHY.
Odd Dispute Between q Hindoo and .
Christian erahman.

OHTIoblau BfaUfUAUs
was once in the market place of
a city in the Deccan, listening to a
Christian Brahman preach the gos-
pei. A student from a college in
Ceylon translated his words for me
in excellent English. The preacher
spoke of the nature of God, infinite,
all good, all wise, all loving, when a
Hindoo in the congregation began
vehemently TO contradict. The dis
pute became so hot that it was pro-
posed to leave the street and, enter
ing a garden near at hand, to cit
down under the trees and have the
discussion to an end. The substance
Of it was this: The Hindoo asks the
Christian as follows: "You declare
God to be infinite ?" eyes" "What
is the meaning Of infinite ?" ut
means limitless." "And what part
of speech is goodr" "Good is an
adjective" "And what is the gram
NAUTICAL function Of an adjective ?"
''To limit noun" GLOW, then, do
you apply an adjective to God, call
ing him good and thus limiting the
limitless?"
By this philosophy, therefore,
God cannot be described, no adiec-
tive applies to him, and we can nei-
Their preach about him nor urge any
to worship him. How, then, can we
have anything to do with him2 In
the conversation described above the
Christian Brahman took his turn in
asking questions: "You believe in
God as infinite? ?" eyes, l so be-
lieve." "And you say that no ad-
jective can be applied to himS" u
so affirm" 'How, then, can you
distinguish him from nothing?"
That becomes the question, how can
you distinguish him from nothingS
You cannot by logic or discourse,
but you may by long process Of con-
temptation or of asceticism bring
yourself to a place where you will
understand. Then it will appear to
you that God is the only reality and
that everything which men regard
as real is an illusion-earth and
man and sky and devils and gods
and life and death and my own soul
all are such stuffs as dreams, hav-
ing no real existence, for that which
is is the infinite. Ny own existence
is illusion, ike all the rest, except
ing as come to identify myself with
the changeless, timeless, limitless,
