GERMAN NAVAL OFFICERS LAND AND SEIZE RESIDENT WITH- OUT LEGAL PROCESS. WATCH PLACED ON KAISER'S VESSEL THREE BRAZILIAN CRUISERS OR- DERED TO PREVENT REPETI- TION OF OCCURRENCE. ‘Washington, Dec, 11.—The Brazilian | embassy in this city has received a telegram from Baron de Rio Branco, the minister of foreign affairs, stating that a few days ago several of the offi- cers of the German gunboat Panther went ashore in civilian dress and vis- ited a small fisting town called Ita- jahy, in the state of Santa Catilina, and there, without any form of pro- cess, seized a man named Steinhoff, who had left his native country (Ger- many), as a deserter from the army and took him with them as a pris- oner on the Panther. Thereupon the gunboat left Itajahy and went to an- other port in the state of Rio Grande do Sol. The three Brazilian cruiser Almirante Barraro, Benjamin Constant and Tamandare were sent to watch the Panther and see that no similar occurrence should again happen, while the Brazillan government made an oflicial protest against the action of those officers (o the German gm‘mn ment. The opinion prevails in naval cir-| cles here that if the facts are as re resented the German government wiil promptly disavow the action of the officers of the Panther in violating the sovereignty of Brazil. Our own naval practice in the treatment of de- gerters in foreign ports is said to il volve the consent of the local authori- ties to the landing of a master-at-arms or a marine guard for the purpose of arresting deserters. The affair is par- ticularly deprecated here because of the location in Southern Brazil, where Germanizing influences are asserted to have been at work for a long time, | exciting the suspicion of the Brazilian government.

Attack Made on Franchise of Des Moines City Railway. Des Moires, Dec. 11.—The Des Moines City Railway company must defend its title to its $2,000,000 prop- erty in the courts, according to the joint decision rendered by Judges Howe and Brennan in the district court. The court held that the Civic league was barred from bringing suit, but that the entrance of the state of Iowa into the case made the attack on the railway franchise legal. There will | be no appeal and the courts will now be called upon to decide whether or not the franchise is good. In the meantime it is probable that the entire question may be settled by a compromise, giving the railway a , at the expiration \\lll authorize the of which the city system.

The men had presented petitions similar to those of the sailors of Libau, Odessa and Se- bastopol for an improvement in the | service conditions and the reply being that they would be transferred to | Cronstadt they held a meeting under | the noses of the officers and refused | to go until martial law was raised at 1 Cronstadt.

Therlcad- ers have succeeded in destroying tele- graphic communication with Kieff, Warsaw and Moscow, which was re- opened for a time. The executive committee has issued another appeal to the strikers to stand firm until all their demands are satisfied. The strik claim that the dele- gates who have returned here from Finland report that the Finns will stand out to the end. 'm Vladikavkaz, North Caucasia, it 1s reported that the telegraphers | selected a man to come to St. Peétersburg and kill Interior Minister Durnovo and M.
