WORLD STRIKE sEAMENS PossIBLE-PRNcE CURES CON-
SUMPTION

BERLIN, May Is The Pan-German
party has made the discovery that
America sees things with anti-German
sentiment, and threatens dire Teprisals
unless the people of the United States
mend their ways.
That journalistic high priest of pan
Germanic fire-eaters, Count Won Rev
entlow, in his latest outburst in the
Deutsches- Tages-Zeitun warns Amer
leans that the cost of their Germano-
phobism may be a German alliance
with Japan, and adjures them to pause
and consider the effect of such COM
munity of interests on American polity.
Won Reventlow is particularly agi-
tated over a recent article in the Army
and Navy Journal describing Japan as
Americas most likely enemy on the
west and Germany as the most prob
able foe on the east, and setting forth
that American safety on the Atlantic
lies in launching a Dreadnought for
every vessel of that type laid down for
the Kaisers navy.
The Count admits that the Americans
have every cause to anticipate strug
gle with Japan, but scouts the possibil-
ity of a German-American conflict. He
asserts that "Anglomaniac sailors" like
Mahan and Commander Sims are chief
I,v fO,
of Germany, and that they find willing
allies in the British press and people,
who are accused of losing no oppor-
tunity to poison American public opin-
ion with reference to Germany.
The Count declares that the Wash
ington authorities understand perfect
ly we'll the duplicity and hollowness of
British pretensions, but that "Ameri-
can public opinion, notwithstanding its
immense powers, does not possess the
slightest political perspective" and is
therefore an easy prey to British in
fluences.
The Count concludes:
Hitherto America has allowed
itself to be spoiled by the blessings
of nature so richly bestowed upon
her, and has attempted to pursue
policy Of bluff toward other ma
lions. The potash dispute with
Germany was the latest example of
those tactics. Germany is not de-
ceived by them, but the unmis-
taxable anti-German sentiments
now prevailing in the United
States compel our attention if
only that we may avoid delu-
sions."
PORTUGAL DIVORCES CHURCH.
LISBON, May 15.-The measure
abolishing the Roman Catholic Church
as the State religion of Portugal and
which has appropriated all the church
property to the republic was published
this week.
All taxes paid by the people for the
maintenance of the parish priests are
abolished, and legacies for church
services are forbidden. All religious
ceremonies must be paid for by cler-
ical societies or brotherhoods, and
third of their present receipts is to be
applied to public charities and relief
funds. These societies will not be
allowed to intervene in education, but
may organize religious instruction.
All religious services must take
place between sunrise and sun
set under the supervision of a

State official. All ediflces owned by
the church, furnished or not, have been
taken by the State. However, per-
mission is granted gratuitously to the
brotherhoods paying for services for
the use of cathedrals, churches and
chapels. Only Portuguese clergy who
have taken orders in Portugal will be
allowed to conduct such services.
Five seminaries for the priests are
permitted. Pensions will be given to
Portuguese priests who now hold office
in cathedrals or parish churches.
These pensions on death may pass to
parents, widows and children. The
professors and employees of the semin-
aries and the books used will be
chosen by the State. Papal bulls and
bishops pastorals may be published
only with the governments permits
sion.
WOODEN WALLS LINE LONDON.
LONDON, May 15.-The imminence
of the coronation has been brought
home to Londoners by +he transforma-
ton that is going on in the streets.
Wooden walls are everywhere in cree
ton. Parliament Square is a waste
covered with boardings and timber
stacks, which will materialize in time
into grand stands. The framework of
the stands is already growing up
around Cromwelrs statue, and the lit
tie green plot on which James IFS
statue used to be hidden is now COW
cred by a timber structure from which
hundreds will watch the passing of the
royal procession to and from the Alb.
bey
In Trafalgar Square several official
bodies have staked down claims for
the erection of stands, either to wit
ness the coronation procession or the
royal progress on the following day.
The whole of Whitehall will have it's
window accommodations supplement-
ed by timber stands, and, where these
are not already in process of erection,
persons who recollect the timber-faced
houses in 1902 can make a shrewd
guess as to their probable appearance
a few weeks hence.
WORLDWIDE STRIKE OF SEAMEN
LONDON, May 15.-Unless the Ship
ping Federation, the ship owners or
ganization, gives a satisfactory reply
to the demands of the National Sea-
mems and Firemen's Union of the
United Kingdom, an attempt will be
made sometime in May to bring about
a worldwide strike of the crews of
both steamships and sailing ships. A
year ago the Seamens Union asked
the federation to agree to the forma-
ton of a national Cancellation board so
that the following questions could be
discussed:
First, a uniform scale of wages for
all ports-a minimum living wage and
wages to be regulated on the basis Of
a sliding scale! second, a scale of man
ming for the seamen employed on
deck, in the stokehold and in the gal
ley; third, the right of seamen to
have a representative present when
the articles of agreement are signed,
so as to prevent the frequent dis
putes that occur during the progress
of the voyage; fourth, the right OF
seamen, when on voyages exceeding
one month, to claim the payment of
two-thirds of their wages due at the
end of each month, so as to enable

PRINCE CURES CONSUMPTION.
PARIS, May 15.-Society circles
here have been excited this week
over the news that Prince Ludwig
Ferdinand of Bavaria, we'll known
as an accomplished physician, has
succeeded in curing of tuberculosis a
beautiful American girl very proml-
nent in Paris society.
The young lady is Miss Di Cor
mandia, and she belongs to the
Cuban family of that name, long set
tied in New York. By her mothers
side she is said to be descended from
Lord Baltimore.
Mrs. Di Gormandia took her
daughter to Munich as a last resort,
and there made the acquaintance Of
the royal family, through the kind
offices of the Infanta Eulalie of Spain.
When the Spanish Princess visited
America, eighteen years ago, she
was the guest of Mrs. Gormandia. in
New York. BY way of returning the
hospitality, the Infanta presented
Mrs. Gormandia at the Bavaria court
where the Princess Eulalie's sister,
Princess Paz, wife of Prince Ludwig
Ferdinand, took kindly to the lonely
American womn with the seemingly
dying daughter
Prince Ferdinand looked at the
young girl professionally, and, IN
order to be able to treat her more
effectually, he induced mother and
daughter to take up their residence
at Nymphimburg, near the Royal
Schools. The Prince, who, besides
being prominent physician, is also
an accomplished musician, mingled
music with medicine in his treatment,
and used to play the violin and the
organ by the hour to his young pa
tient.
AS result, Miss Commando is now
so well that she is able to attend
court functions, and her mother be-
lieves that she will easily stand the
fatigue Of the coronation in London.
Or. Hoch the celebrated consump-
ton specialist of Vienna, admits the
complete recovery of Miss German
.dia. The Infanta Eulalie has sent
her warmest congratulations
The wonderful result obtained by
the Prince with a case given up for
lost by all physicians, is now attract
ing the attention of DR.. Doyen and
other consumption specialists, while
it is said that the Bavarian doctors
are greatly resenting the interfer-
ence of the royal Prince with their
profession.
There seems to be quite a special
taste for medical science among
members of the House Of Wittesbach.

A Thrifty Pensioner.

William A Munson, notary public
and pension agent, of Providence, r.
l., drew nineteen pensions regularly
for years. The government paid
him about $4,000. Munson usually
kept the pension certificates of his
clients in the Office, and executed
quarterly vouchers for the pension
ers. One by one the pensioners
died. Munson continued to execute
the vouchers, forging the name OF
the pensioner, and usually that OF
the identifying witness. He kept
up the practice until checks for six
teen dead pensioners were regularly
coming to him, besides cheeks for
three pensioners who had remarked
and ceased to be entitled to them.
Among the beneficiaries was Mum
sons aunt. She had died in 1887,
but he continued to draw her pen
sion until 1897. He also continued
to draw for five years the pension
of his sister after she had died in
her own home in 1892.-Worlds s

Macon, Ca, Jan. 6.-The nerve

wife who presides over what ought

has literally cut to pieces every point
of operations and every joint that af-
fords social comfort for the gambler
in Macon.
All day long excitement prevailed
while the grand jury was in session
and indictments enough for a whole
month are now in the courts to be
passed upon by jury where the VIC
tim is not willing to admit his guilt
and pay his fine.
The lady who is responsible for
the warfare, walked into the office
of Sheriff Hicks yesterday and said
her husband had not been home In
two days.
\ She volunteered to go to a certain
place and show the sheriff how to
get into an upper room, where he
would find a gambling place in oper-
alton and her husband there.
She did this and a raid followed.
Many cases have been made.

NEEDED BREAD, SOLD VOTES.
Pitiful Stories Told in Ohio Election
Corruption Probe.

West Union, Ohio, January T.
Footsore, ragged, half-starved and
weary, three middle-aged men, one
cripple, appeared in Common Pleas
Court to-day to acknowledge their
guilt of vote-selling. They had walk
ed by the light of lanterns from
Rockville, twenty-five miles distant,
to tell Judge Blair they had sold
their votes last November in order
to get money to provide food for
their families.
The story of the three, John Rich
ter, Page Cook and Asbury Cooper,
excited the pity of the court, who
gave them a month to pay SIS fines
imposed, and disfranchised them for
five years.

of twenty-five new ones. All of these
men, he said, had been bought by
him last fall, at price ranging from
