CAMPAIGN OF PUBLICITY.
Gathering of Brewers Decides to Fight
Prohibition.


Chicago, March IA campaign of
publicity to counteract the effect of
the present prohibition wave was de-
cided upon by the board of trustees OF
the United States Brewers associa-
tion at a meeting held here.
The meeting was attended by Colo
mel Gustave Pabst of Milwaukee, Ed
ward A. Faust of ST Louis, William
Hamm of St Paul and other leading
brewers from all parts of the country.
The object of the gathering was to
extend the work of the organization
committee now going on all over the
country under the auspices of the
association.
Many of the brewers had just re-
turned from big brewers meeting
In New Orleans and reports were
given from a number of Southern
states, particularly Georgia, Alabama
and Texas, showing that prohibition
in towns that have gone dry" In
those states had been failure.
The board decided to investigate
conditions all over the country with
reference to the liquor business, both
in open" and In dry" communities,
and to publish the results for the ben
eft of the country. Literature on the
economic aspects of the business and
other phases of the traffic will be
prepared by the organization commit
tee and distributed In every city and
community in the nation.

FINANCIER SUICIDES.
Vice President of Detroit Trust Com
pany Kills Himself.

Detroit, Mich, March 7.-Ellwood
T. Hance, first vice president of the
Union Trust company of this city and
former postmaster of Detroit, shot
and killed himself in his home here.
Friends say that he had been greatly
depressed over his own financial af-
fairs for some time.
Mr.. Hances health also had not
been good and it is supposed that this
aggravated the worry and impelled
him to shoot himself. Mr. Hance was
born in Wilmington, Del, fffty-six
years ago and came to Detroit in
1878. He was admitted to the bar
and in 1889 was appointed postmaster
When the Union Trust company was
organized he was made secretary and
later vice president.
President F. w. Blair of the Union
Trust company and Henry Russell,
one of the directors and the com.
pany's legal counsel, deny emphat-
ically that the affairs of the Union
Trust company are in any way in
volved by any of Mr.. Hance's finan-
cial difficulties. They also deny that
the affairs of the failed City Savings
bank, for which the Union Trust com.
pany is receiver, are entangled be-
cause of Mr. Hances management.

MAY END TOBACCO WAR.
Negotiations on for Sale of Kentucky
Crop Held in Pool.

Lexington, KY, March 7.-Negotia-
ttons have progressed almost to the
point where it can be taken as cer-
tain that the tobacco war in Ken
lucky, which has been fought vigor-
ously for the past three years and
which has been attended by rioting
and incendiarism, will be settled i'm
mediately. The negotiations are be-
tween the American Society of Equity,
the organization of the growers, and
the American Tobacco company, com.
monty known as the tobacco trust"
The company, 1t is authoritatively
reported, has agreed to buy of the
society its 1905 crop held in pool and
amounting to S0,000,000 pounds. The
agreed price is Is cents a pound for
the first 100000 pounds, with an op-
tion on the remainder If the quality
is found to be satisfactory.
If the entire transaction goes
through, and there is every reason to
believe that 1t will, the marketing of
the S0.0O0,000 pounds will have the
effect of raising the embargo of in
dependents on the raising of crop
this year, the raids of the night riders,
two more of which have been made
this week, will cease and the society
will be given much more substan-
tial footing than it has had in the
past

GERMAN VIEW OF AFFAIR
Foreign Office Denies That Emperor
intended to Interfere.

Intended to Interfere.
Berlin, March IA considerable
sensation has been caused here by
allegations published in the London
Times with reference to the letter
sent by Emperor William in February
to Lord Tweedmouth, first lord of the
British admiralty.
The foreign office said 1t was quite
correct that Emperor William some
time ago wrote letter to Lord
Tweedmouth, but the assertion made
by the London Times that his majesty
had endeayored to interfere in the
naval plans of Great Britain was
characterized az untrue.
His majesty. In his letter, corrected
certain erroneous impressions in Eng
land with regard to the development
f the German feet. In naval mat
ters the emperor is entitled to con-
sideration as an expert, it was ex-
planned at the foreign office, and he is
recognized as such in England as we'll
a. In Germany. AS emperor of Ger
many he would reject any foreign at
tempt to decide the proportions Of the
German feet and on this basis would
repudiats the idea that he had inter-
fered In the naval affairs Of Great
Britain.
The German official view is that
there is no reason why the letter
should not be published, but it is de-
clared that the matter is a personal
one between the emperor and Lord
Eweednouth.

With the British Naval Estimates
In a Letter to Lord Tweedmouth,
Lord Of the Admiralty.
london, March THE letter from
the German emperor is purely a per-
| sonal communication. There Ia no ref
erenco therein to the British naval
| estimates"
This is the reply Lord Twsedmouth,
first lord of the admiralty, makes to
the request made by the Times for the
production of letter Emperor Will
lam sent to Lord Tweedmouth on the
subject of the British and German
| naval pelicy, together with the ad-
miralty lords reply thereto, on the
ground that Emperor williams motive
was to influence those responsible for
the British naval policy In the inter
est of Germany.
Lord Tweedmouth intimRted that
further information on the subject
would be given out In the house of
lords on March 9.
Lord Tweedmouth's statement that
the communication from Emperor
William was personal and not sent
him In his capacity of first lord of the
admiralty has done nothing to allay
British suspicion that Emperor Will
lam is guilty of designs on the indie
pendence of the country. The episode
has caused widespread excitement
and there are insistent demands that
the matter be fully aired In parlia-
ment.
II has been suggested that pos
sible explanation of the incident is
that the British government attempt
ed to secure mutual limitation in the
matter of warship building by direct
negotiation with Emperor William;
in other words, to
Achieve by Indirect Diplomacy
what The Hague conferencel failed to
bring about. The critics of Lord
Tweedmouth, however, points out that
any such negotiations ought sto have
been carried on through the foreign
office and there is considerable anx-
iety to know how far these alleged
irregular proceedings have gone.
According to one version Emperor
Williams letter to Lord Tweedmouth
gave exhaustive details OF the COM
parative strength of the navies of
Great Britain and Germany and, bas-
ing his opinion on this comparison,
the emperor said he thought the Ger
man fleet could not be considered
more than one-fifth as strong as that
of Great Britain. This being so he
thought Great Britain had no need to
fear any rivalry In naval supremacy
from Germany and that consequently
there was no need of any increase in
the shipbuilding programme of Great
Britain.
In official circles it is pointed out
that 1t would be contrary to all eti-
quette to publish Emperor Williams
letter without the consent of the
writer. 1t is believed, furthermore,
that King Edward will have to be
consulted before publication is pos
sible
The incident of Emperor Williams
letter had slightly depressing effect
on stock exchange prices when the
trading opened. Prices rallied subse-
quently, however, on Lord Tweed
mouths explanation of the matter.
The episode was the sole conversa-
tion In the lobbies of the house of
commons and the house of lords.
