ANSWER IN POTASH DISPUTE.
Reply of German Government Elk
pected to Be Presented.

II is expected that within a week Count
Bernsdorff the German ambassador here.
will present to the State Department the
reply OF his government to Secretary
Knox's proposal that the potash dispute
be taken up automatically by the foreign
off1ces OF the two counties.
The German answer Is believed TO enter
in great detail into the history of the
events that led up to the termination OF
the contracts OF the American fertilizer
people with the independent German pot
ash producers, with a view to justifying
the action Of the German government.
It is said to be evident that there In q
mutual misunderstanding on the part Of
the two foreign offices as to their rcspec-
tive positions, and that diplomatic ex.
changes will clear this away.

over the dismal destinies Of the othce
and institution when occurred the
events chronicled in this narrative.
That a man fated by his choice Of
occupation to daily associate intimate
ly with criminals Of high and low de-
gree and to come constantly In per-
sonal contact with all the misery and
deprayity going to form the life Of a
states prison-that man SO fated
should find exquisite enjoyment in ac-
centuating these depressing conditions
is surely 4 contradiction Of what ordi-
narily would be expected. Humans OF
normal mold are generally occupied in
amelIorating the evils and annoyances
Of their surroundings. That is natures
way. Not SO with Warden Handler
That which is bad can be made to be
worse. Innocence can be shown to be
guilt-with the aid Of trained wit
uesses. Repentance is always insin-
cere, and II it is not 1t can be made
40. A murderer should be made to re-
member always his ignominy. A thief
should be reminded OF his amateurisll
clumsiness which led him into the
clutches of the central Office men,
That was Handlers philosophy. That
was Handlers way.
And underlying all his petty oppres-
