ENGLAND DOESN'T
 LIKE GERMANY
CHANCELLOR VON BUELOW AD- MITS THERE IS DEEP RESENT. MENT IN GREAT BRITAIN AGAINST GERMAN EMPEROR.

Berlin, December 6.-In the course of the debate in the reichstag today Herr Fritzen, member of the clerical party, asked Prince von Buelow for information regarding Germany's relations with Great Britain, Russia, Japan and France. The speaker expressed the hope that the change in the British ministry would lead to better relations with Germany, add ing, Points of political controversy be- tween the United States and Great Brit ain do not exist
 This remark was given loud assent by the house.
 The chancellor in a second lengthy speech took up the matter of foreign re- lations. He admitted that Germany must reckon with a deep-seated antipathy in Great Britain, but at the same time he greeted with relief the recent signs of an improved feeling on the part of the Brit ish people toward Germany. He said he would fain see therein the beginning of restoration of a mutual understanding, now interrupted, between two great peo- ples of a similar civilization. Between Germany and the other two members of the triple alliance, the chancellor said, not the slightest conflict existed, never theless Germany must be strong enough to stand alone without allies if need be-
 Turning to the Russian situation, Prince yon Buelow said Germany's policy had been complete abstention from mixing in the internal affairs of Russia. He then discussed the Moroccan question, pointing out that Germany was pursuing we'll grounded rights, and was not playing the role of wanton mischief as others would misrepresent her.

STRANGE CASE 0F

The Dr.. JekyI and MT. Hyde of
 New York Bar
CONVICTED OF BLACKMAlL
Under Name of "Dr. Lewis Jarvis" He Extorted Money From Clients and Prospective Cients-Traced
 by His Own Letters.

New York, December 6.-Thomas M. | assistant corporation counsel, today was found guilty of blackmail in the criminal branch of the supreme court. He was | remanded for sentence next week. The case of Wickes Is one of the most peculiar in the criminal annals of the city and the man himself has come to be
 known as the ''Dr. Jekyl and MT. Hyde"
 of the legal profession. While occupying
 high reputation, It has been learned that
 under the name of Lewis Jarvis,' which he assumed for the purpose, Wickes were interested in cases with which he was connected. Nearly all the letters
 were confined entirely to praise of Wickes the man, and his ability In the legal profession. Clients were congrat- ulated upon having obtained the services of so able gentleman and prospective clients were advised to retain Wickes at
 any cost. Some of the letters, however, had other ends in view, and it was one
 of these which resulted in the undoing of Wickes.
 eral of these Lewis Jarvis letters were written, advising Dr. Weston to settle a certain litigation himself by paying
 several thousand dollars These letters evidently were written by some one out side intimate with the case of Dr. Weston gave them in evidence.
 Wickes was found out and arrested
 when he went to a postofice for letters
 addressed to "Dr. Lewis Jarvis.' During the present trial he admitted he was the writer of the letters.
 Wickes' counsel set up in defense the argument that there was no attempt to blackmail in the letters.

Sharp Rise in Price Gives | Crsdcnct to Report
REGARDING J. W GATES
Resembles His Celebrated Louisvi cs, Nashville Coup of 1eo2-We seS ward, Reports Say, So'
 His Stock at 16o.
BY SEWELL HAGGARD.

New York, December 6.-(Special. )--Al-
 though representatives of the Hanover
 National bank, which is identified with
 the control of the Tennessee Coal, Iron
 and Railroad company, denied today that
 a syndicate headed by John w. Gates had purchased a majority of the stock of the concern, the fact that the stock went
 up to more than 130 a new high record.
 caused the report to be taken seriously. The story as Wall street heard it is
 that John w. Gates and nine other men
 have purchased about 160.000 of the 2230O0
 outstanding shares of the company s
 stock. Among men said to be associated
 with MT. Gates are Grant B. Schley, Oak
 leigh Thorne and s. G. Gunther. The story went so far as to name
 prices at which a majority of the stock
 had been turned over.
 It is said that James T. Woodward got about $160 share. If he sold for less the
 street would be greatly surprised There were several reports as to what the supposed new purchasers intend to
 do with the property. It was said to have
 been the intention originally to take hold
 of the property themselves and devol- op it.
 Another theory is that they propose to obtain control of other southern iron properties and establish strong but friendly rival to the United States Steel corporation. Among the properties men toned as likely to be absorbed by them is that of the Republic Iron and Steel company.
 It is said that Mir Gates and his friends formed the pool to purchase the Tennessee
 some time ago. It is known possibly that if the amount of stock the members pledged themselves to take has been ob- tained the control of the property now rests with the syndicate. The supposed coup in many respects resembles the famous purchase of the Louisville and Nashville railway in 1902
 fin which MT. Gates, cooperating with
 Edwin Hawley. and several of their friends bought the control in open mar ket. The present transaction, however, involves by no means as much capital as was required in the famous Louisville and Nashville coup. It is estimated that s11 100000 or s12,OO0.OOO was raised by the group of ten men who are now believed
 to be the real owners of the Tennessee
 Coal and Iron company. One of the syndicate when asked to- night: DO you propose to consolidate the Tennessee Coal and Iron company with the Republic Iron and Steel company" said
 We have no plans at present for the company"
 It was said officially that the United
 States Steel corporation will not con slider the purchase of the Tennessee com pany.

Military Dictatorship Gaining In the Empire-Wltte Loses Ills confl- denoe In the Russian People.
 Father Gapon Goes to Paris.

London, December 7.-(Thursday a. m.) The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, in a dispatch dated De- cember 5. sent by way of Eydtkhuenen, says:
 "Lieutenant General Sakharon, former minister of war. was assassinated today.
 "The government had deputized General Sakharoff to visit the province of Sara toff for the purpose of quelling the Agra rlan riots there
 "A woman belonging to the so-called Flying Column of She revolutionary movement called at the house of the governor at Saratoff at noon today. and asked to see General Sakharon. She fired three shots at the general, killing him on the spot.
 "rhe tding reached St. Petersburg to- night. Count Witte charged Lieutenant General Rudiger, minister of war. with the task of breaking the news to Madame Sakharoff.
 "The event has created profound im- pression in St. Petersburg. owing to fears that the revolutionists here will fol- low the example thus set. "The spectre of military dictatorship which has been looming on the horizon is slowly gaining consistency and sharp ness of outline.
 'I am personally convinced that Count Witte's faith in the good sense and tact of the Russian thinking classes which was recently firm as a rock, Is grad ually weakening. and Wittes hope for the carrying out of the liberties promised in the Emperors manifesto. There are signs of a collapse of the postal and telegraph strike. Two-thirds of the telegraph opera tors are daily offer l ing to resume work. but they are prevent ed from doing because the wires have been cut or the stations fail to answer l signals.
 Father Gapon has gone to Paris un- der very mysterious conditions which am not at liberty to unfold"

 The moneys received in the redemption and exchange account during the fiscal year 1905 amounted to $1,150, 625763 and were equal to A per cent of the money 4in circulation at the close of the year.
 The silver dollars in circulation June 30, 1898. were s58. .4S2 966. The amount of this coin distributed at government ex- pense for transportation, from July l. 1898, to June 30. 1905. was $275, ,536.512, but the amount in circulation on the latter date was only $73,584,336.
 Subsidiary silver coin to the amount of s27 6o6.ls5 was distributed to depositors during the last fiscal year. The average rate for transportation on shipments of silver coin during the year was $1.90 per Sl000

close of the year, June 30, 1905, stood at $31.0 By October l. 1905 the total money in circulation had advanced to S2,624, ,230, . 391. per capita circulation of $31 .39, AZ 8 per cent of which was gold.
 To maintain the present per capita cir culation the increase in population of the country makes it necessary to add about s500O0,000 to the monetary stock each year.
 The gold in the treasury, including the reserve and trust funds, October g. 1905, amounted to $739 .s93. coo. .36, a sum never equaled in our annals; nor has any other government ever held so much of the precious metal.
 The demand for small denominations of currency has been continuous throughout the year. The volume of United States paper currency of the denominations of $10 and under has increased $167 1921 since March 1, 1900, but only s4,629320 of this increase took place during the last fiscal year. Bills of the denomination of S2O and over have been redeemed and re- issued in the smaller denominations in an effort to respond to the demands for small notes. The limit has practically been reached in making changes in the denominations outstanding through the process of redemption and reIssue. In fu- ture the redemption of outstanding large United States notes and silver certificates will be too slow to meet the call for small bills.

 During the past year the usual facilities have been extended to aid in the move ment of the crops.

 Congress of Republics
BRAZIL GETS TIE; TIE HONOR
American Delegation Will Be Con- veyed to Rio on Fine Naval quadron-Secretary Root
 Will Attend Congress.

Washington, December 6.-The third international congress of republics will meet in Rio Janeiro January 1. 1906. This decision was reached at meeting of the executive council of the bureau today, presided over by Secretary Root.
 The decision as to the time and place for the next congress was reached with out much difficulty by the executive board of the bureau of American repub- lies upon presentation of the facts that the two preceding conferences had been in the United States, second in Mexico, and consequently the third should go to Brazil by seniority.
 The time selected is that of midwtnter in the sub-tropics, closely corresponding in season to Florida during the winter. While Rio de Jeneiro is nominally the place for the meeting, 1t is probable that the third conference will be assembled at Metropolis, which is the diplomatic suburb of the Brazilian capital.
 Secretary Root who presided over the meeting today, reiterated his purpose of attending this third congress at the head of the American delegation, the other members of which have not yet been elected. It Is probable, in order to em- phasize the interest this government feels In the approaching congress with its probable important effect upon the rela- tions of various nations of North, Cen tral and South America, that the Amer ican delegation will be conveyed to Rio on fine naval squadron.
 The American ambassador was partic- ularly active in bringing about today's conclusion He proposed in addition to the resolution fixing the time and place of meeting another resolution which was adopted providing for the appointment of three committees from the membership of the executive council of the bureau of American republics. The first commit tee is to endeavor to formulate a pro- gramme of topics to be considered at the next congress; the second is to prepare rules for the conduct of the business of the congress. subject of course to such amendment as the congress itself may see fit to prescribe; the third Is to undertake general revision of the relations gov erning the administration of the bureau of American republics here with view to increasing it's usefulness and bringing in closer relations for business purposes the countries of the union.
