Sedaliv, M», Dec 2 —The scc‘ety people of Sweet Springs have not vet recover-d from tbe shock they received Inst Saturday moroing when it was whispered around that Miss Kate Neul, daughter of Dr. L. C New] who is an heiress to not leas thav $25,000 had eloped with Joe Jobnaun, a mulitto, who former- ly was a concbman for A L. Martin, and more rec-otly acted in a similer capacity for Dr Neal. When it became known generlly that Mies Neal and the negro bad been seen together last Friday even- ing in Kansas City and that there wus Do doubt that the couple had run away together, the greatest in dignation prevailed and the elope- went caused the greatest sensation ever krown in that part of the State The friende of Dr Neal, under the leadership of Dr O.

Washington, D C, Dee 3 —From of the Foreign Relations committee, and with officials «f the state depart- ment, it is learned tbat considerable avxiety is felt bere over the agressive aod almost irresponsible attitude of Prince Herbert Biswarck of Ger many. There is more in the Haytien inci- dent than appears ou thw face of the diplomatic interchauge The demand of indemnity for the imprivor m--t of Herr Lueders is but an ¢ ccasion for the detiance of ths Movrve doc- t:ine as most broad'y ioterpreted. The justice of the case appeirs ep ' careful inspection to be entirely with the struggling aod plucky little republic, and the real aoimus of Germany’s most remarkable attitude is found in the recent utterance of the young Prince. OPPOSING “AMERICAN ARROGANCE ” In speaking of Haytian uffaire, be says he deems it ‘political necessity to oppoae thig American srrogance often and ewphatically.” He goes on to say tbat no oue dreams of annexing Haytito Germany, but be intends to push the country’s claim for damages in a most vigorous | manper. The German cruiser Geir, msnved with 265 men, is therefore on tue | way to Port Au Prince, Hayti's cap’- tal, for that purpose.
