It is a matter of no little consequence how the elec- toral vote of West Virginia will be cast. There is little doubt that the candidacy of Mr. Elkins is very strong. His associations in the state d bis immense business interests, iuvolving anumber of prominent democrats in “entan- gling alliances,” might make it a very difficult thing to defeat him. Therefore the democrats are anxious to bring forward the strongest man they can, and it is probable that Repre- sentative William L. Wilson will be the dem- ceratic nominee. He is not seeking the nomi- nation, but will accept it if offered to bim, and will probably make « better run than any other democrat who could be put upon the ticket. To make the rin he would factitice a brilliant career in Congress to make a desperate fight in the party interest. “But even with so strong a eandidate as Mr. Wilson the democrats have every reason to feel alarmed about West Vir- ginia, and the best informed politicians believe that if Mr. Cleveland does not secure the nom- nation the stato will be very apt to go republi- can, despite all efforts to save it. Cleveland is popular among democrats in West Virginia. A solid delegation will probably go to the na- tional convention in his support, and it is felt that with him as @ candidate there would be a reasonable prospect of democratic success, With any other candidate, some shrewd poli- ticians say, 1t is hardly to be hoped that the state could be carried in face of the tremen- dons efforts that will be put forth by Mr. Elkins.

The Secretary Appears Before the House Fension Office Investigating Committee. SE WANTS IT UXDERSTOOD THAT HE WENT VOI- UNTARILY AND NoT f§ OBEDIENC# TO SUM- MONS—HE TELLS WHY YOUNG RAUM WAS ASKED ‘TO BESION N15 POSITION. Noble was examined today by the ‘special House committee appointed to investi- gate the management of the pension office. ‘The Secretary said that at the outsct be wished to make a statement, A messenger from the committee had called on him and he said that he would attend, but the messenger had insisted on reading the summons to him notwithstanding he (the Secretary) had said it was not necesdary. Ho took this to mean that there was some doubt as to whether or not he would attend and that if he did not he would be compelled to do so. _ Mr. Enloe said he could explain that. The inessonger hid been told to read the summons to another witnesa and probably took it for Granted that that course was necessary with every one. Secretary Noble said ho referred to that for two reasons. First, the President had inti- mated in his m that a free investigation of any of the departments would be welcomed, and he, of course, was in entire harmony with that wish. Secretary Noble said he wanted Congross to examine his department, and he and his officers would give any information they could. In the second place, for the benefit of his successor, he wanted to protest that the head of an executive department was not subject to process of the House to come forthwith and Without limit of time. “I came here voluntar- ily,” added the Secretary, “and without any force of writ.” THE BEMOVAL OF YOUNG BAUM. Mr. Enioe then inquired about the removal of young Green B. Raum. The Secretary wanted the facts, now well known, of how Civil Service Commissioner Ly- man called on him in May, 1891, with a paper making charges against young Kaum of recciv- ing money either directly or indirectly through colored man in tie Treasury Department for the appointment of a man named Smith, an- other man nameti Johnson personating Smith in the necessary civil service examinstio; ‘The Secretary said it had never been his pratice to wait very long under suck cireum- stances and he immediately required young Raum’s resignation. He did not examine into the matter beyond the Teport of the civil serv: ice commission, Young Kaum was the son of the commissioner and he gave him time to find something else to do before his resigna- tion should take effect. He treated young Raum mildly, as he thought the circumstances required he should do so, because of the young man’s relationship to the commissioper. Mr. Little (N. ¥.) asked if it were customary to give men whose resignations were demanded thirty days’ leave. ‘The Secretary said there was no rule on the subject. He had expected there would be some criticism of his action, but the man being young he would rather let him go out under such circumstances than to shirk the responsi- bility and criticism. DIDN'T ASK ANY DEFENSE. Mr. Brosius (Pa.) and Mr. Payson asked if an opportunity had been given young Raum to defend himeelf from the charges made. The Secretary ied: "No, because I thought the charge of such a character, ing the service so deeply, because the charges were brought to me by an officer of a gov- ernment bureau which had investi- gated the matter and because they made statements so apparently truthful, I de- termined to rid myself of it at once. 1 thought the good of the service demanded that he shouid go and I sent bim.” ‘The Secretary said he had doneZnothing with reference to the fraud on the civil service commission, for the commission looked to him to take care of young Raum and it would take care of the offense against it. THE CHARGES OF HOWARD AND ENGLE. Mr. Enloe then asked the Secretary about the filing of charges against young Raum by Messra, Howard and Engle, clerks in the pension office, charging Raum with demanding money from them. He told Mr. Bussey to call the commission er’s attention to this matter and request him to see to it. The commissioner said the charges were ctrenlated to injure him and filed counter charges, with a demand for the removal of thesemen and Special Examiner Taylor, who was suspected by the commissioner of being connected with the matter. The Secretary told Mr. Enloe that he thought the charges about belanced each other. Young Raum was out of service and he refused to remove Howard and Engle. Tay- jor he had asked to resign because he (Mr. Noble) had previously come to the conclusion that it would advance the govern- ment’s interesta, The commissioner and Mr. ‘Taylor were uot getting along well together. ‘There was a conflict of authority between them, and he thought the commissioner should be sustained rather than Mr. Taylor, NO REMOVALS WITHOUT CAUSE. Mr. Enloe proceeded to question the Secre- taryas to the removal of persons without cause. Mr. Noble said all removals were for cause. He could not recall instances, but the records of the office were unimpaired and would show the cause for each removal. It was his rule that cause must be assigned for all removals. Hedid not remember that in 1889 he had removed a large force of special examiners, Mr. Payson said ne would show that the men were not removed, but merely called in from the field because the funds were practically ex- hausted. Mr. Enloo said he would show by some of the men themselves that they wore removed. Se eee Naval Orders.

Benttx, Feb. 26.—The citizens of Berlin have passed one of the most restless nights in the memory of the present generstion, The echoes of yesterday's rioting before the castle of the Einperor William of Germany at the end of the Unter den Linden spread not o: far into the night, but the embers of the affair were still glowing fiercely this morning. Sunrise until sundown encounters be- tween the police and the rioters continued at intervals in different parts of the city, mostly, however, in the eastern districts. Heads were broken right and left and the police captured many more prisoners. Thronghout the night the entire police force of the city was kept on duty and in several quarters detach- ments of t were kept under arms. It is difficult to picture the state of wild excitement aud amazement which prevails here and, according to the newspapers of this city, in all European capitals, Such an ovcur- rence as that witnessed on the Unter den Lindea Yesterday would not have caused much ¢om- ment had it happened in Paris or even in Lon- don, where encounters between the police and large bodies of the people are not infrequent. But here m Berlin, the capital ground down under the presence of soldiers and military Police, the rioting of yesterday attains a point of very great significance. IS THE KAISER MAD? . It revealed as if by s thunder clap the fact that the emperor is most unpopular with the masses and that the people are beginning to feel convinced that the damning words recently attributed to the emperor must be the vyapor- ings of a crowned madman and that the ruler of the German empire is suffering from de- mentia, This is the conclusion that people here are gradually coming to and there is no doubt that the empire is in danger. It is not intended by this to intimate that away by the waves of a revolutionary move- mont; the time for that upheavel has not ar- rived. But the matterings of a threatening storm are heard in the distance, and the first flashes of lightning were seen on the Unter den Linden yesterday afternoon, and the rumbling of the thunder was beard from night until morning. WILLIAM HIMSELF GAVE THE SIGNAL. It is felt on all sides that the emperor by an- nouncing practically to the Brandenburgers that he had flung down the gauntlet to the ple and that he would drive from their Romes aud into the ‘exile of emigration all those who opposed his will gave the signal for the straggle between himself us “I am the state” and the people of the empire, who are asserting their right to have their wrongs ro- dressed by their sovereign. The emperor, it is recalled, at a previous Brandenburg banquet exclaimed. “there is only one ruler in the couutry; Iam that ruler, and I will endure no other,” and it is remem~ bered that at Munich, ashorz time ago, he wrote in the visitors’ book: “Saprema lex regis voluntas” (the supreme law of the land iv the king's will). ‘These and other such savings credited to the emperor have not passed unheeded in Germany and have left rankling sores in the Leartsof the people, TRE WATCHING KarsER. It was stated exclusively in these dispatches yesterday that the emperor watched the riot- ing from the windows of an apartment on the first story of the castle. Itis now added that he «miled, though his face was deadly pale, when he saw the people beaten down beneath the swords of the military police. Everything that is possible to bring up against the emperor is now being recited and re- vamped, burnished up and repainted in more glowing colors by the socialistsand others who feel most bitter against the German emperor, and people say if he imagines himself ‘equal to the Deity time will show that. he bad de a very great mistake in so imagining. The Vossiche Zeitung, for instance, remarks that if all the discontented leave the country nobody would be left but Catholics, and the Vowarts expresses the opinion that if the em- peror's invitation to emigrants is accepted the emperor would Fule over a desert. ‘Ihe authorities during the night were greatly alarmed, and it was evident that they expected further disturbances would follow this morn- ing. In consequence they took the greatest precaution to promptly suppress any addi- tional rioting. RENEWAL OF DISORDER. The supposition of the authorities of this city that there would be more rioting was well founded, for, soon after the breakfast hour, groups of angry people, enraged at the treatment they had been subjected to yester- day and during the night by the police, began to gather in different parts of the city and dis- cussed the riot, its object and its result. Loud and deep wero the curses hurled at the em- peror and the police and eagerly listened to utterances of the socialist speakers, whosecmed here, there and et But, strange to say, the latter, asa rule, advocated ‘the adop- tion of the policy of moderation. The first blow has been struck, they ciaimed, and the people should wait to see its effects befor taking further action. The reichstag, it w claimed, would now be compelled to make a real inquiry,into the grievances of the people and nothing would be gained by a second demonstration at present, especially es the immense military and’ police force of the city was under arms and was ready for any emergency. During the night, it was added, a battery of rapid- fire guns had been smuggled into the castle an: many other preparations had been made to mow down the people should there be any 3 portunity given the authorities to do so. The rej also bad it that the emperor wasin favor of “teaching the rioters = which they would not soon forget,” hence the desire of the leaders of the people that there should be no further demonstration. PRUDENT COUNSELS NOT HEEDED. But these wise counseis, while having due effect upon the masses, were not listened to by the more excited portion of the men who had taken part in yesterday's fighting, and, as the day wore on, the small groups of people be- came larger, in spite of the efforts of the police to disperse all such gafberings, and it became evident that further trouble was brewing. At about noou a body of three or four hun- dred men gathered ther and sang the “Marsellaise,” after which, their number bay- | ing been considerably augmented,they marched through the Brandenburg gate tothe Unter Den Linden, shouting: “Give us work or bread Give us work or bread!" “We and our fami- lies are starving.” ‘These cries were soon followed by the more alarming one of *‘To the castle,” which was were simply unemployea advanced socialistic element was to be found among them in the directing of the movement. The cries with bitter denunciations of the emperor, of the police and of the authorities generally. When the rioters, then neibering about 1,000 men, reached a spot well up the Unter Den Linden they joined in» loud shout of “To the custle,” and led by a few wen who seemed to be the leaders of demonstration they pushed on toward the emperor's castle. —— it) is probable that the empire will soon be swept | Vierea® ee Gemenention <f @ 01 it is recalled that at a recent meeting .. hstag Herr Khardot™ —4 cal meet. ings, and in order, be said, Eo peereat eee state from falling into the hands of — mds of the se To this, it is also mentioned, Herr Barth plied that the right wanted to “provoke a com.

The emperor, accompanied by a single abd- de-camp and preceded only by two mounted policemen, left the palace this afternoon @m horseback, at a leisurely thr Unter dew Linden and rode to and around the Thiergsrten, returning to Palace as come. He was loudly cheered all slong the route by the people, who quickly gathered im large numbers when the word got around that the emperor had appeared. THE KAISER'S BRANDENBURG SPEECH. Loxnox, Feb. 26.—The Berlin correspondent ‘of the Times, referring to Emperor William's Fecent Brandeuburg speech, says today: “The impression created in Germany by Emperor Wiltiam’s 9 at the Lrandenburg ban- quet is indescribable. It is felt that the gauntict has been thrown down, and that the struggle of the government with the ever- pporition will be fought to the bitter traffic and peror’ have soliditied the radical coalition.

THE GIRLS REFORM SCHOOL. The Commissioners have reported to Con gress with reference to H. R. bill S744, “To provide for the purchase of site and erection of buildings for the girls’ reform school of the District of Columbia,” that while they approve of the general project they are of opinion that & smaller amount of mi will suffice to begin the establishment of the school In their estimate for the — fiscal gear toend June 30, 1898, they included, upon ‘h. recommendation of the superintendent of charities, an item of $75,000 for this per- pose. They afterward ascertained that ‘the grounds of the boys’ reform school are ample for the accommodation of both the boys’ reform school aud this proposed institn- tion for girls. With these considerations im view they have recommended that an ation of £35,000 be made for the latter, and asiteand grounds therefor be from the grounds of the boys’ reform school.
