A Motion to Kepeal the Prohibition Made im the Reichstag. In the German reichstag yesterday Herr Barth, a member of the Deutsche Freisinnige party, moved to repeal the prohibition on American pork and bacon importa. Dr. von Boetticher, secretary of the imperial home office, in replying to Herr Barth, said that the considerations which had determined the government to prohibit the importation of American pork and bacon into Germany turned mainly on the fact that American pork was in- furious to health. Despite the increased stringency of the measures taken in America to suppress the trade in bad hog products, there was still no guarantee that Germany would be sufficiently protected from the danger of trichinosis. Seven per cent of American pigs, said Dr. von Boetticher, were affected with the disease, while only 0.6 per cent of German pigs were affected. Many Americans considered that the existing measures for the control of hog importations were inadequate. The eco- notuic importance of the prohibition was ex- aggerated. Only 3 per cent of the pigs con- sumed in Germany were of American origin. The decree against the importations must be enforeed until American pork is pronounced clean. Herr Schmidt, another member of the Deutsche Freisinnige party, urged the neces- sity of supplying. the working people of Ger- many with American meat, which was consid- erably cheaper than German meat. The Ameri- cans, declared Herr Schmidt, had revenged the probibitionsof American pork through the new ‘tariff. A SANITARY MEASURE. Herr Frege, a conservative, said he favored the prohibition of American pork. ‘The ques- tion involved concerned the public health and not the interests of land owners, as a section of the press sought to prove. R Herr Broemel of the Deutsche Freisinnige party held that it was unchristianlike to make the peoples’ necessities of life dear in this bar- barous manner. Every workman in England, he declared, could save considerably through the use of American por! Dr. von Boetticher further said that it was anerror to suppose that the prohibition of American pork was connected with any que+- tlon of adopting a system of increased protec- tion in Germany. It was solely a measure look- ing to the health of the people. The American press itself admitted that the condition of the animals when slaughtered was by no means without danger. At this point Dr. von Boet- ticher read a series of extracts from American papers in support of his assertions. He mid that the English and Americen people did not eat raw meat such as was sometimes consum: in Germany. The Americans themselves de- ©. Jones, 194 acres, ' 24.300; Geo.

Freeman, seventh infantry, has been relieved from recruiting duty at St. Paal, Minn. Capt. Thomas Wilhelm, eighth infantry, re- lieved from duty at Fort Washakie, Wyo., and ordered to proceed to St. Paul, Minn., for as- signment to recruiting duty. The leave of absence granted Second Lieut, manded that the United States government adopt similar measures to those which had been adopted in Germany. Count Kanitz said he approved of Dr. von Boetticher's remarks. He declared that the new American tariff was not intended to re~ taliate against Germany for its prohibition of American pork, but was a general measure of protection affecting other powers. ‘The reichstag was then adjourned. A QUEER CHURCH FIGHT. Te Be Decided by Competitive Sermons and a Vote. The German Lutheran Church at Livonia,: Mich., is engaged in a queer fight. About 1881 some members objected to certain features of the Augsburg confewsion. A number seceded, and since that time the same subject has come up in many forms and each time the number of seceders has been increased. The regular church hired a pastor named Kinka and liked his preaching, while the secedere did not. January 4 the seceders went in a body to church, took locksmith with them and pried off the locks of the doors. None but the seceders had keys. The following Sunday the “regulars” again got control of the church by breaking in the windows, and installed Kinka in the pulpit. Each time that the church changed hands slight fights oceurred. ‘Last Sunday both factions gathered at the church and the seceders put Meyers in the choir loft, while Kinka occupied the pulpit. Both preached at the same time and confusion worst confounded reigned. The other day both factions went to Detroit, each determined to William H. Bean, second cavalry, has been ex- tended two months.

Gardner, assistant . has Deen relieved from duty at Pine Hides agency, 3. D., and ordered to proceed without delay to Fort Riley, Kan., for temporary duty. In connection with general orders No. 77, Series of 1890, the colonel and regimental staff Of the fifteenth infantry will proceed without delay to Fort Shezidan, Ill, for station.

White, re- spectively president and cashier of the State National Bank of Raleigh, who fled to Canada in 1888 with $20,000 of the bank’s money and who were subsequently captured, tried and fonviewed and sentenced to seven and eight Sears each. respectively, were yesterday par- joned b; Fowie.. ‘This action of the gor ‘ernor gives general satisfaction in Raleigh. In Jail on His Wedding Night. Wednesday “afternoon Wm. White, eighteen Years old, was married to Miss Lila Langty, fifteen years old, at Greenville, $.C. The bride's father, when he heard of the affair. was very ‘sugry and had the groom arrested for abduc- tion, swearing that the girl was under the legal ‘age for marriage. The prisoner spent the night in jail, but finally succeeded in gaining the good wit bis father-in-law and was pared ye terday afternoon to return to his bride. Married to an Earl's Son. Miss Virginia Schley, dangitter of Capt. Win- field Seott Schley, commander of the man-of- war Baltimore, and Mr. Ralph Granville Mon- tagu-Steuart-Wortley of England, the second son of the Earl of Warncliff. and vice president f the Atlantic and Danville railroad, were ‘the church leaning on the arm of her father, who was in full dress uniform.

Mrs. Hudwig Anderson. wife of Louis Ander- son of Brockton, Mass., purchased a drachm of morphine, and, when her husband had left for his work. she mixed the entire quantity, and, dividing it into four parts, gave one each to her three children, aged five, four and two years, and took the fourth drink herself. She then retired to her chamber, taking the chi dren with her, with the intention of never waking agnin. ’ They were accidentally discov- ered and efforts tosave them. “Jealousy caused the act. oo See Foreign Topics of Interest. It is not generally known that the Duke of Leuchtenburg, recently deceased, might have been emperor of the French had the empire survived. Napoleon III selected the duke as his successor in case he should die without per- sonal issue. ‘The duke's estate foots up $2,000, - The employers’ liability bill to be urged in the British parliament by the reprerentatives of labor will contain a provision making it im- possible for workingmen to contract themselves Out of its provisions.

Many charitable persons put their contributions directly in the hands of the local clergy and the latter are also giving of their private means liberally and _unostenta- tiously. But for the priests many deaths from starvation would have been chronicled. The suffering is most acute, and on Achill Inland, the people are aguin without food, the aid re~ ceived from the government being exhausted. ‘The same condition exists in many parts of Mayo and other districts.

A terrific rain storm swept over the Wyoming valley yesterday morning, continuing until 3 p-m. and working extensive damage in the low- lying districts. Over one third of Wilkesbarre was under water and traffic was completely suspended on the Scott street extension of the suburban street railway. Along Canal and North Washington streets every cellar was flooded to the first floor. The steam heating plant was completely submerged. The gorge in the Susquehanna extends from Tunkhannock to Nanticoke, a distance of thirty- seven miles, and it is feared that the storm may cause the river to back up and flood the valley from end to end. The combination of aheavy fall of rain, a very high tide and a strong wind blowing the water in from the sound caused the Housa- tonic and Naugatuck rivers to rise yesterday fourteen feet. Heavy freshets have occurred in western New York, washing away the bridges. Two ladies anda team were swept down with a bridge and drowned. ‘The rain which fell Tuesday night and until 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon has done consi erable damage in western Massachusetts. ‘The river rove six feet and many houses and barns and cellars along the banks are flooded. ‘The main road to Monson is two feet under water and packed with ice cakes. A mile east of the village the road to Springfield is under water, and the floating ice has cut off telephone poles and dropped them across the highway. At Great Barrington, Mass., in cellars the water rose to the level ‘of the ‘sidewalks, pour- ing out through the gratings into the street. The Housatonic track at the lower end of the village was submerged to a depth of a foot, and the Middle road to Sheffield was covered ‘with several feet of water. At Three Rivers, Vt, it was feared that the bridge of the New London Northern railroad might be carried away. ‘Two miles east of the Villiage the tracks of the Boston and Albany railroad were eighteen inches under water. Many cellars were flooded and the water was five feet deep in the basement of the Union pas- senger station. Roads there were badly washed and the dam at the reservoir of the Palmer Water Company came near being washed out. re was 2 washout on the New London Northern road, a mile north of Palmer, Mass., but it was discovered in time to prevent ncci- dents. One man had a narrow escape from ng while trying to wade through Com- street, being rescued just as the water was taking him off his feet. Great loads of ice are filling the rivers at Waterbury, Conn., the storm increases and the water is rising continually. Nearly fifty mer- chants are suffering from flooded cellars and the damage to stocks will aggregate $2,000. Several factories have been obliged to their power on account of high water. The rain caused very high water and some serious damage in the vicinity of Poughkeepsie, Adam at Hibernia on Wapping creek broke at 4 o'clock, adding the water of a large pond to the already swollen stream. The rush of ice and water struck the large iron bridge on the Central New England and Western railroad just below the dain and moved it several feet out of line, stopping trains. An iron highway bridge was destroyed and part of the mill at Hibernia torn away. At Pleasant Valley, a few miles below, the lower floor of the cotton mill was flooded. The people of the village were driven into the second stories of their houses and were only able to get about in boats, but no property was carried away. It is feared that injury may be done further down the creek. “Iwo or three bridges were carried away on the New York and Massachusetts railroad near Pine Plains. Yesterday the ice in Speedwell lake, New Jersey, began to break up. A great volume of water swept over the dam, and in a short time a break was made. A httle later the dam gave way and carried with it the old ircn foundry formerly owned by Stephen Vau, the builder of the first steam vessel to cross ‘the Atlantic In this building Morse’s telegraph instrument was stationed when the first’ message over a telegraph wire was sent to Boston in 1835. ‘The building was an antiquated wooden structure. Within the last few years many New Yorkers have endeavored to purchase it on account of ita historical associations. and wreckage from Speedwell Inke rushed into Lake Pocahontas, and a few min- utes later had broken the dam at the lower end and inundated the low-lying district of Morris town. Many horses and cattle were drowned and two-score houses were half submerged The occupants of the hoascs were taken ont in te ——___ +02 —_—___ REVIEWED BY MILES. The Troops at Pine Ridge Make a Display of Their Strength. Ten thousand Sioux had the opportunity yesterday to see the strength and discipline of the United States army, for the end of the ghost dance rebellion was marked by a review of all the soldiers who have taken part in crushing the Indians who had taken to the war path. The day at Pine Ridge was one of the most disagreeable of the eampaign. A furious wind blew from the north, driving sand and snow over the valley in blinding and choking sheets. The camp of the soldiers was two miles from the agen Through a stifting gale of sand Gen. Miles and his staff rode ina ragged group, the wind tossing the tails of the horses over their flanks. It was after 10 o'clock when all the preparations were com- plete for the review. The summits of the buttes to the north were then fringed with Sionx war- riors, who were closely. wrapped in their blankets and staring at the long’ fines of caval- rymen and infantry which stretched away to e south until they were lost in the flying sand. The redskins were still suspicious that some move would be made to wipe them off the frce of the earth. Stretching in a long ghostiy line along the ridge of the buttes to the north wore their pickets ready to give the word that would send the redskins flying in case the soldiers should advance upon them. ‘The column was an hour passing Gen. Miles, there being nearly 4,000 soldiers and 3,700 horses aud mules in ine. TROOPS ORDERED AWAY. ‘The mandate has at last been given dispers ing «large portion of the’ soldicrs massed at Pine Ridge to suppress the Sioux uprising. ‘The troops of the Department of the Missouri now in the ficld were yesterday ordered by Gen. Miles to proceed to their several stations, except Capt. Wells’ battalion of the eighth cav- alry, which goes to Fort Meade, 8.D. Col. Henry has instrnetions to seck a sheltered eamp with his battalion of the muth cavalry ata dis- tance of uot more than ten miles from Pine . Seventy members of the first infantry, Col. Shafter, San Francisco, have been allowed to transfer at will to regiments belonging . to other departments. These changes still leave four troops of the seventh cavalry, Cupron’s light battery of the first artillery, the first, secoud and seventeenth infautry, the sixth cavalry and two companies of the eighth infantry in the field. Forty more gins were surrendered by the In- dians to Gen. Miles ai dusk lust evening. Koch's Lymph Old and Doomed.

Services at San Francisco Over King Kala- kaua’s Remains. ‘The last honors were paid in San Francisco to the late King Kalakaua yesterday afternoon. During half of Wednesdey and throughout the night the body of the dead king lay in state in the mortuary chapel of the Trinity Episcopal Church, whére the king had several times at- tended the services since his arrival in San Francisco. A guard of regular soldiers kept watch over the casket throughout the night. ‘The acene in the sacred edifice yesterday was a deeply impressive one. A number of represen- tatives of foreign governments present were arrayed in official dress, but the church itself was not decorated, save the chancel, at the back of whicis were draped American and Hawaiian colors, immediately in front of which burned Jets of gas artistically arranged in the form of a kingly crown. The rails of the first three poms on the left of the centro aisle, which bad for the Hawaiian ‘party, were art Soe] ieces, offer and of societies of which the king had member. ‘THE SERVICES. With the bells of the church solemnly tolling and while tho organ sounded the majestic strains of the Beethoven funeral march, the clergy, followed by the guard of honor, pro- pos 2" slowly down the center aisle. Just be- hind the clergy followed a body of pallbearers, who carefully bore the coffin, draped in Hawaiian colors and heaped with flowers, to the bier within the chancel. Col. Raker of the king's staff, Hawaiian Consul General MeKin- ley, several Hawaiian residents of Saw Fran- isco and the little party which accompanied the king from Honolulu came next and took the seats reserved for them. ‘They were in mourn- ing, and as the services proceeded frequently gave vent to tears. As the coffin was borne into the chancel the clergy, comprising all the ministers of the Epis- co] faith 1 the city, arranged themselves on either side, while *he’ choir intoned the chant by Fellon.' The doors were then thrown open to the public. A selection from scripture was read by Bishop Spalding and “Jerusalem, the Golden,” was sung by the choir. Rey. J. San- ders Reed delivered a short funeral discourse. The choir sang “Rock of Ages.” BORNE TO THE VESSEL. After the benediction the faneral cortege slowly took the coffin to the hearse. The Procession moved to the water front imme- diately after the conclusion of the services in the church and wasa most imposing demon- stration. The procession was headed by two troops of the fourth United States cavalry, with the band of the fifth United States artillery. Next came the light battery of the fifth United States artillery, followed by the second brigade of the National Guard of California. The hearse was escorted by the Golden Gate Commandery. ‘Then came the suite of the king, Gen. Gibson and staff, Admiral Benham and staff, and re} itatives of the government, Maj. Gen. Di- staff, federal, state, city and county officials, representatives of the mercantile bodies, civic societies and private citizens came next in carriages. At the foot of Market street there were as- sembled 100,000 spectators. There was a total cessation of business all along the line of march and on other thoroughfares. ‘This was done as 4 spontaneous expression of respect on the of the business community. At the foot Market street the second bi le of the Cali- fornia National Guard formed in line and pro- sented arms as the hearse and escort -passed. ‘The cavalry escort. on reaching Washington street wharf, presented arms as casket was delivered to Admiral Brown. The lighthouse steamer Madrona was moored at the wharf. and a few handred yards ont in the stream lay the flagvhip Charleston. ‘The casket containi a See king's remains was placed aboard the Madrone and received by Admiral Frown. ‘The Madrora then steamed out to the Charles- ton, and the casket was transferred to the flag- ship and placed in the after barbette under a canopy formed of Hawaiian and American flags. Ina few moments the Charleston commenced to move down the bay, while minute guns were fired from the batteries at Alcatraz and the Presidi About 5 o'clock the Charleston passed through the Golden Gate and proceeded ‘to Bea. FORCED TO RETIRE. B. P. Hutchinso: Family Persuades Him to Gi 'P Speculation. | Special to the Philadelphia Press. Cucaco, Jan. 22.—B. P. Hutchinson, the vet- | eran board of trade man, suddenly withdrew | from speculation a few weeks ago. It was thought to be merely a new freak on the eccon- | tric millionaire's part, but today the cause of his retirement became known. Hutchinson's family was dissatisfied with his Peculiar trades nnd aaked him to retire from wusiness. ‘This the old gentleman flatly refused todo. Hisson, Charley L. Hutchinson, con- sulted with his attorneys’ and close personal | friends, and upon their advice he told his father that unless he would close up his deals quietly and give up all speculative businews the matter would be taken into the courts and a convervator applied for. Hutchinson, er., was very angry, but finally consented to the terms, and at once evened u his trades and closed bis books. It is estimate that Hutchinson has lost about #19,060,000 within twenty years. In 1870 he waa reported have a fortune of $20,000,000. Ten years ago, his son says, this had dwindled to. 810,000,000, and now there is but $1,000,000 left. It was'to save this from following the rest of his money that the family insisted upon his re- tirement. “Old Hutch” has been acting queerly for some time. He is not a domestic man, and his methods of life are not conducive to sound physical or mental health. “He hax enguged in the wildest of speculations not only on the board of trade, but in reality, and his conduct has repeatedly oecasioned unpleasanteomment.

His daughter, a pretty girl nearly sixteen years of age, keeps house for him. Some time ago Mr. Branch bought a | Bible from the representative of a Nashville publishing house, to be paid for in installments. Today a burly collector, who signs his name W. H.

A few minutes later Evans found Rev.
