GENERAL FOREIGN AFFAIRS Le Se BERLIN, June 22.—The Kleine-Journal to- day publishes a dispatch from St. Peters- burg saying that the Russian police have discovered an explcsive mine which was in- tended te blow up the train conveying the czar to the army maneuvers in central Russia. According to the dispatch, the mine was discovered along the line of the Orel- Witebsk railroad. The outrage is said to be the work of nihilists. In consequence of the discovery of this plot to kill the czar, the latter, it !s assert- ed, has decided to abandon his intention of attending the cpening of the Memorial Church at Borki.

Mr. Patton, the new republican Senator from Michigan, delivered his maiden speech in the Senate today. It dealt generally with the subject of the tariff, and he sketched the growth of the industries of Michigan under a protective system. Deal- ing with the income tax features in par- ueular, he said the bill would increase the cost of insurance In many ways. He ar- gued that the former operation of the in- come tax levied during the war had proved a failure. The democratic party, he said, in its long minority opposition without re- sponsibility had attracted to itself many impracticable and destructive theories. Now that it had attained power it was plagued with these and had been compelled to in- corporate many of them in the bill. He claimed Michigan's special interest tn the question from her many leading industries, which he enumerated. The discrimination against the farmer and the wool grower in the bill, he said, bore with special severity on Michigan. He said of the bill: “It ig covered with the stain of a great scandal, by which the sugar trust gets a concession of some thirty millions of dol- lars; it has brought a lasting disrepute on the Senate itself, and is discredited and de- rounced in the house of its friends. It is a series of bargains and deals unequaled in American politics, and it cannot but re- ceive the just condemnation of the people of the country if they should ever pass judgment upon it.” Sectionalism in the Bill. Of the sectional character of the bill he sald: The speech of my friend, the distinguish- ed junior Senator from Georgia, was an earnest effort to refute the charge that this bill is not sectional, but he was sur- rounded with unfortunate concessions which cannot be explained on any other theory. The spectacle of a duty of 80 per cent on the rice of Louisiana and 40 per cent on sugar, while the northern farmer, in competition wit Canada, ts not given adequate protection to his: eggs, hay and is vegetables, and is offered free wool, one which taxes the best energies of hi mind to explain. It is difficult to harmo- nize the action of the finance committee on cotton ties and cotton machinery with Placing barbed wire on the free list—barbed wire, which employs 20,000 men in Illinois, I am told, white the billets rom wien 16 is made are dutiable for the benefit of for- eign labor. I listened to the glowing pic- ture he presented of the undeveloped re- sources of his state. I also heard the ju- nior Senator from Louisiana describing the virgin pine forests in Louisiana. Senators have grown eloquent picturing the coal and iron and marble now awaiting the capital and skill and enterprise to develop thes marvelous resources. Let us say to these Senators, if they would listen to the voices from the new south; if they would point to the smoke signals which have waved In the sky from Atlanta and Birmingham and Sheffield; if they would come gut of the mists and fogs of the past and denounce the mumblings over dead issues, and get away from the doctrine of fre2 trade, which was the corne- stone of that confederate constitution which was shot to death by the armies of the Union and perished at Appomattox, their resources will not re- main undeveloped. Let them listen to the voice of the new south, which is surely coming with the triumph of protection, alteady heralded by the ground swell of popular approval at every opportunity the people have to apologize for the great mis- take of 1892. The doctrine this side of the chamber advocates is as broad as our country. at will do for Alabama, the Virginias, Louis!- ana and Georgia what it has already done for Ohio and Michigan. Let them denounce and disclaim the Gen. Rossers and Rev. Caves, who are still falsifying history and fanning the almost extinct embers of past bitterness, and wel come the northern immigrant into great states which only require the magic touch of capital and labor to become hives of in- dustry, surrounded by a people enjoying the comforts and luxuries of life insepara- ble from the high wages the protected American workman has heretofore received. dy and the “New South.” The south had a gifted son, who passed away in “youth's bright morning,” lament- ed by the entire nation, whose grave is still covered with the immortelles of our affectionate admiration. In his brief life he had accomplished great things for his country, and was as eloquent in speech as he was great-souled and tender-hearted. A true lover of his country, he saw the future and the needs of the south with unclouded vision. He believed In protection and sought to build up his section. He turned his back on the bitterness and mistakes of the sad pest, and with beautiful word-pictures painted a future of industrial development for the states of the south which is an inspiration to better things. He had an all-embracing patriotism, which reached out the hand of friendship to the north, and hag done more to bring us all together. Mr. President, the national calamity of the un- Uimely death of Henry W. Grady is uni- versally recognized. : He quoted trom a speech by Grady which referred to Mr. Mills as “that lion of the tribe of Judah” who had at last laid his mighty paw on the protective system, and under this indignant touch it trembled to its center. + e+ _______ Decides Against the Indians. In the case of the appeal of the Northern Pacific railroad from a recent decision ren- dered by the commissioner of the general land office, in which the commissioner held that lands owned by several Indians in the Walla Walla land district of Washington were excepted from the grant to the rail- road, Secretary Smith has rendered a de- cision against the Indians. The lands are within the limits of the withdrawal upon the filling of the road and within its grant. The Secretary ‘maintains that although it is true that the Indians had possession of the lands at the time of the filing and ac- ceptance of the route of the road, yet this occupation was unauthorized and the home stead privilege which was later granted to native born Indians, would not cover their case. = See Rev.

Count Von Kotze Arrested on a Most Extraordinary ‘we. BERLIN, June 22.—The Cologne Gazette today has caused a sensation by announcing that Count von Kotze, one of the masters of ceremonies of the imperial court, was ar- rested on Sunday last cn a most extraordi- nary charge. The arrest of Count von Kotze is the re- sult of four years of patient police investi- gation. During all that period members of the highest. aristocracy of Germany have been in receipt of anonymous letters und Fostal cards. These mi:sives, in most in- Stances, were used by the anonymous writer to make the worst and most indecent per- sonal accusations, either against the persons to whom they were addressed or against their intimate. friends or dearest relatives. Nothing seemed too bad for the anonymous writer to intimate to his victims, and the re- sult was that very bitter feelings were caused in many worthy families. Husbands were t it to suspect their wiv fathers: learned to doubt their sons, daughters began to look with suspicion upon their mothers, life-long friends were separated, and, in brief, irreparable wrong was done in a great number of noble families. The count 1s found to be the author of these letters. The general opinion seems to be that he will be confined ir. an asylum. JAPANESE TROOPS IN COREA. d With LONDON, June 22.—A dispatch to the Times from Tien-Tsin, China, today says that Japanese troops have been landed in Corea and this is causing strained relations between China and Japan. It is added that telegraphic communication with Corea has been interrupted. SHANGHAI, June 22.—Four thousand Japanese troops are stationed at Chemulpo and fifteen thousand Japanese troops are stationed at Seoul, the capital of Corea. BAKERS STRUCK BY THOUSANDS. Lisbon Furnished With Bread Baked by Soldiers. LONDON, June 22.—A dispatch to the Times from Lisbon today says that the encampment of the 6,000 bakers of that city, who struck against’ a regulation re- quiring the master bakers to deposit 8,000 reis as @ guarantee that they will sell bread of a proper weight, was surrounded by a strong force of military and police at 4 o'clock this morning. When the Times dispatch was sent the pei d bakers were being escorted in custody into Lisbon, where they will be compelled to resume work under military and “police supervision. As many of -the strikers are Spaniards and as the latter are believed to be the leaders of the strike they. will be immediately expelled from Portugal. During the two days which the bakers have passed in their camp outside of Lis- bon soldiers have been employed to bake bread enough to supply the demands of the citizens, THE BRITISH GRUMBLE. They Do Not Like to See Americans Intimate With Royalty. LONDON, June 22.—The feature of the Ascot meeting has been their regular at- tendance at the race course of the members of the royal family, and the presenge of a number of Americans, for whom the United Statés embassy procured tickets, which admitted them into the royal inclosure. This provoked much jealous comment upon the part of the British public. ‘ommenting upon this fact, Vanity Fair says: “The. inclosure ould be made a court ceremonial completely; but if Amert- cans and merely rich people are to be ad- mitted without apparent limit, then ‘there &re others who must not be luded."” ~ ‘The Princess of Wales was at the Ascot meeting for the first time since the death of her eldest son, the Duke of Clarence, discarder her mourning garments and ap- peared yesterday in light blue, with a black sash. ROUND ABOUT EUROPE.

Serious rioting has already occurred and more trouble is antielpated. LONDON, June 22.—The remains of the Lord Chief Justice Coleridge were con- la | veyed today to Westminster Abbey in an open hearse, covered with ficral Wreaths sent from the aristocratic legal world. After a funeral service in the abbey, the remains were taken to Ottery, St. Mary, county af Devon, for burial. YOKOHAMA, June 22.—The German le- gation was wrecked Wednesday afternoon by the earthquake. The occupants of the legation escaped. LO: NDON, June A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company from Paris says tl there have been sixty cases of cholera and fifteen deaths at Jemehpe, a village of Belgium, near Liege. BERLIN, June 22.—Emperor William, ac- companied’ by the empress and by Prince Adalbert, started for Kiel today to attend the regatta of the Imperial Yacht Club. He is expected to race his yacht in one of the events today. LONDON, June 22.—Baron Forester, the Rev. Orlando Watkin Weld Forester, the canon residentiary of York, is dead. Baron Forester was born April, 1813, and had the privilege of wearing his hat in the royal presence, dating from a grant given to an ancestor of the time of Henry VIII.

Ellis, a civil engineer of Binghamton, at Wil- lard’s this morning, “but the question of ex- pense appears to prevent them from = =cur- ing comprehensive systems of water works that will meet the demand for 100 years to come. The great trouble with American municipalities seems to be that they almost invariably provide public works that are merely sufficient to supply temporary neces- sities, without any regard for the inevitable increase of population and the correspond- ing demand that accompanies it. “They do things better in Europe. Paris is now considering a plan for getting water from Lake Neufchatel. It involves ‘the building of a tunnel #00 miles long and the expenditure of 300,000,000 francs or $60,000,- 000. ‘The engineer who suggests this plan proposes to tunnel the Jura mountains and give a head of nearly 40 feet in Paris. Manchester, England, is now laying Lake Thirmere under contribution for an inex- haustible water supply, and Glasgow, in Scotland, has already done the same thing with Loch Katrine. One of the most re- markable feats of engineering in connec- tion with water works, however, is the miles from Liverpool in Montgomeryshire. The waters of the river Vyrnwy have been impounded and the storge capacity of the lake {s something like 2,000,000,000 — gal- lons. I reckon Washington will have a suf- ficient water supply some of these days when Lydecker’s tunnel is forgotten enodgh to no longer prove a bugaboo to the au- thorities.”” A young man walked into the Riggs House this morning resplendent in a white flannel suit, pink neglige shirt and a chip straw hat with a blue and white band around it. His tout ensemble might have been, perhaps, pleasing If the russet shoes which completed it had not been so vocifer- ous. They creaked worse than a windlass that never knew oil in its career. “Just hear that fellow’s shoes,” ejaculated Steve Burnham, the manufacturer of army brogans, who was in the lobby. “I hate to hear shoes raise such a rumpus when they can be cured of their agony so easily. How? Just take a platter of some sort—a big pie plate will do—and pour a little lin- seed oil in it. Let the soles of creaking shoes rest in this overnight and in the morning you will find that they not only do not make any more noise, but that the oil has made the soles impervious to damp- ness as well. If you don't want to go to so much trouble in order to eure creaking shoes, though, just go to a shoemaker shop and have him drive a couple of wood- en pegs in the sole of each shoe. The result will be the same—the shoes won't creak any more.” “All this hue and cry about the dangers of the corset {s silly and ridiculous,” said Dr. J. A. McGill of Atlanta at the Ebbitt this morning. “It is not the use, but the abuse of the corset that Is properly a sub- Ject of criticism. A corset, when worn properly, is an immense advantage to a woman, and there is no more harm in wearing a well-fitting corset than there {s in wearing a weil-titting shoe. A sensible woman wno does not think that it is the perfection of beauty to squeeze in her walst until her figure looks like an animated hour-glass will never fail to bless her cor- set for the support it affords her. Of course there are seme women built in such @ way that they do not need artificial as- sistance in holding their figures together, but there is not one such woman in a thousand, and the other nine hundred and ninety-nine need corsets. I don't believe in these stiff, unytelding culrasses of steel and whalebone, however. [ think corsets should be made to fit the figures of their wearers, and be of silk or brocade, or some such yielding materials, and then they are not only things of beauty, but are undoubted joys to those who possess and wear them.” “I was out driving yesterda: sald J. W. Barr of Denver at Wormley’s this morning, “and heard a lot of fellows out at a road house complaining about the dusty condition of the roads. They ought to go out to Utah and experience one of the dust storms they have out there. A person who has never seen a dust storm on the plains cannot conceive what a mis- ery-breeding affair it is. A strong wind will come up, and in less time than it takes to tell it almost the air will be completely filled with the most impalpable sort of dust particles imaginable. Doors snd windows and tent flaps are no protection against the moving cloud. Everything is covered with it. I have seen a dinner placed on the table at the ranch of a friend of mine near Ogdcn, and made absolutely unea able by a dust storm, which arose just as the meal was served. The wind that blows it doesn’t carry cn its operations like the zephyrs you are familiar with in the east, either. When the wind blows out on the Utah plains it blows hard and it blows steadily. There seems to be no rise or fall to its speed or volume. The only thing I know to compare with it is the wind given out by one of these te fans, and it you want to know the Rind of breezes We have out west in the plain country just stand in front of an electric fan and about half a foot from it, and stay there for three or four hours if you can. That's the reason that the wind in the west sometimes drives cattle crazy and men to drink when it begins to show what it can do. The steady blow is relentless and unbearable.” _ THE COURTS, Equity Court No. 1—Judge Cox. Today—Howland agt. McCammon; decree adjusting rights of parties. Oberly agt.

Both Bait and Flies Must Be Used— Peculiarities of This Species of “For sale—A lot of the finest quality of | fishing tackle; rods, reels, lines, hooks, etc., such as are used for bait fishing. A rare chance for beginners. Owner uses nothing but, fly.” This ad. was written by the colonel immediately after he had caught his first black bass with a fly. He got five or six in the upper Potomac that day on a fly and it was all the boatman could do to keep him from throwing his batt tackle over- board. He swore he could throw a fly into a bags’ mouth sixty feet away. ‘Two or three days ago he went fishing again. He had a new book of files, a rod as ght as a willow switch, and there was no such thing as a bait bucket or any bait tackle in his outfit. When he got back he dad blisters as big as 10-cent pieces on his hands. He had caught four bass with a fly more on borrowed bait tackle. He still be- sake of variety. He has Icarned that to get thorough en- jJoyment out of fishing the Potomac, under the varied conditions and the constantly changing character of the water over which the boat passes, a man must use and appre- ciate either bait or fly. The Small-Mouth Bass. No man who has not fished the upper Potomac knows just what bass fishing ts. There is the widest difference of state- ment by writers as to the characteristics of the bass. None who have not fished in the Potomac can describe him as he is known to us. The Potomac bass is the “small mouth,” which is the fisherman's favorite wherever he is found, but he 1s almost as much the superior of the “small mouth” bass of other waters as the latter are to the ordinary “big mouth.” He is not as shy as the bass is usually described as being, but he ts infinitely more cunning and has the tenacity of a bulldog. His con- Stant struggle for existence in the rapid Waters, where, amid the rocks and eddies and falls he finds not a foot of water in a hundred miles where he is free from the swift curr makes him active and strong as a trained athlete, and his intelligence ts as great as his physical development. He is a mighty strategist and a mighty fighter, and as mcody as a savage. Between him and the fisher it is a feir fight and no favor from start to finish, end many a one has made his escape from captivity after being seemingly secured. At times he will su‘ke most anything you offer hin at the end of a hook. Again, no delicacy can tempt him. At times he will chase a min- now right up to the side of the boat, and, perhaps, Jump fo> it as it is drawn from the Water not four feet from the angler. At other times he will nose the bait out of bis way when it has been carefully placed be- fore him. When very hungry, he seems to | have no fear, but will follow a boat and take the bait again even after he has once been snagged and got away. He frequently takes a bait again after, by a false strike, it has been jerked from him. His action depends altogether upon the mood he is in, and you can neve> tell just what he will do r given circumstances. One thing you can always depend on him for is a fight, but you cannot tell what peculiar tactics he will follow. Whatever his move may be, it is evidently directed by intelligence. Bass in the Potomac. The black bass are abundant in the Poto- mac from the Little Falls as far up as you want to go. Anywhere from the second lock, just above the “Chain bridge,” to Or- leans, over a hundred miles above, the fish- ing is reliably’ good if the water is in con- dition. The fish are always there; it is for you to find them, which you can do if you are a good fisherman. The question al- Ways is to stop off at some place where you can find boats and boatmen and lodging ac- commodations. The Great Falls, Pen fields, Tuscarora, Point of Rocks, Harpe rs Ferry, Weverton, Hancock, Woodmont, Or- leans and any number of places between are points along the river from which fish- ing is done with great success. This has not been a favorable season for fishing, not because the black bass have | been less numerous, but because of the heavy rains and high, muddy water. It ts a rare thing for the bass to bite in muddy Water, and the grief of the fishermen is that the Potomac ts so eften muddy during the spring season. Early in the season some very fine catches were made at Tus- carora, Weverton, Point of Rocks, Harper's Ferry and Woodmont, but the days were very fcw that any fishing could be done. Among the fish caught were a goodly num_ ber weighing from four to five pounds and many more from two to three pounds. One caught at Woodmont and served on the table of Col. Bright weighed six pounds and nine ounces. Two gentlemen who were fortunate enough to strike good water two or three days ago at Woodmont caught about fifty fine fish, one weighing four pounds and a half. A large catch was made last week by a party fishing just above the Great Falls, where they got clear water at the mouth of a stream. The average weight of the catches this season has been ex- remely satisfactory, but the oj for fishing at all have been few. ees Delight Beyond Description. The delight of fishing on the Potomac is something beyond the power of description. Even to one not an expert with the rod and \ reel the mere fact of being in a boat on the rapid winding river, surrounded by moun- tains or hills, with an ever-changing scene, new beauties of scenery disclosed at every few yards of the boat’s course, the chang- ing lights of the day from early morning to midday and the lengthening of the shadows as the sun declines, the many-tinted foliage. the motion of the boat along the rushing water and the midday meal by the spring on a shady bank—the communion with ni ture in her greatest variety of charms—is a pleasure hardly to be equaled. Add to this the excitement of the sport which surpasses all sports, the careful hunting of the bass in his haunts on the rif- fles, in the eddies and in the deep pools, where the water looks as smooth as a lake, but ts rushing in an unbroken volume with ;@ current which is too strong for a swim- mer, and all the poetry, romance and en- thusiasm of the sportsman’s soul is awak- ened with emotion. The bait is cast over into a tempting eddy. In an instant it is seized with a rush, the reel sings as the line goes smoothly through the water, then there Is a ‘pause, and the fisherman, with every nerve strained, waits al- most breathlessly for the ‘second run. Then it comes lke the passing an express train. At the start a twist of the fisherman's wrist sent the ;hook home. the fish is fi id the battle is on. That is but the start; the victory comes afterward, and not always to the angler. However skillful the angler may be the antagonist at the other end of the | Mne ts just as skillful in his way and has an awful sight more cunning to his size. Over n Wide Range. The Potomac fisherman does not plant | himself on some bank or tle up his boat in one place for the day's fishing. Now cast- | ing, now trolling, now still fishing for | awhile in some particularly promising place, he will ordinarily fish over six or seven miles of the river during the day, fre- quently doubling on his course. About the average fish is a pound and a hi nd one of that weight often makes as’ good a fight as a four-pounder. A two-pound or two-pound-and-a-half fish will usually give a better battle than will any larger fish, and the lighter the tackle the better the sport. ‘The river has cleared up again now after ‘a long period of muddy water and all who have fished within the past few days repori good success. —— After Unearned Land Grants, The House committee on public lands is | considering Representative McRae’s bill | providing for a forfeiture to the Unital | States of all land grants to railroads op- posite the portions of the lines as original- ly planned which were .not constructed | and completed within the time stipulated |in the granting acts. | Twenty-five railroad corporations are af- | fected by this bill.

From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. “While I was in Germany last year,” said W. L. Burgess of New Haven, “I came across several walls surrounding some of | the public institutions that were construct- jed out of cast-iron bricks. These bricks | certainly have many advantages over the | old-fashioned clay bricks, though they may | not prove superior in all respects. In form and size these bricks resemble our ordinary | bricks, but they are composed of cast-iron |and hollow. The shell is so thin that the | brick weighs less than one made of clay. | A wall is built of such material without the | Use of mortar, and no skilled labor is re- | quired in laying them. The upper and lower jsides of the bricks are provided with grooves and projecting ribs, which fit into cach other easily and perfectly and form a | wall of great strength. are also two large circular openings in the upper side of each brick, arranged 80 as to receive pro- | Jections on the lower side of the brick that is to be placed above it. One of these pro- Jections is hook-shaped, which secures a solid hold. A wall of these bricks is put together very quickly. After the wall is built it is covered with paint. This closes all the cracks, rendering the wall air-tight, and prevents the bricks from rusting. Tl bricks are very durable, and a building constructed of them would be practically fire proof.” — eee ~ lavitation Decline: Owing to the pressure of official business Irvitation to attend the National Saengerfest at New York, beginning tomorrow. the President has been obliged to decline an | FINANCIAL.

The Sagar Trust Com tee Engageé Upon Finishing Touches. The Senate committee engaged in investi- gating the alleged sugar trust scandal laid before the Senate its report on the cases of the witnesses before it who have refused to answer the questions propounded to them. and in which they advised the in- dictment of the contumacious parties in question. Senators Lindsay and Gray dis- sented from the majority of their colleagues ,; Tegarding the course to be pursued in the cases of Henry O. Havemeyer and John G. Searles, on the ground that it was not | within the competence of the Senate to di- rect an inquiry as to who has contributed to the campaign fund of any political party without reference to the purpose for which the contribution was made. The dissenting Senators recited that Messrs. Havemeyer ind Searles had answered freely and fully | all questions as to whether or not contri- butions have been made by the sugar trust | to the national campaign fund of any party. | and pointed out that the charge of contu- macy against them rested solely upon ques- tions put to them as to the amounts end particulars of contributions which they had testified had been made by the trust for local and state purposes. Senators Gray and Lindsay expressed the opinion that Messrs. Havemeyer and Searles had not refused to answer any question that was pertinent to the inquiry with which the committee was or could | bave been properly charged. No action | was taken upon the report by the Senate yesterday. The sugar trust committee also held an executive session for the of considering its report to the Senate. | The original draft suggested by the demo- | cratic members of the committee, Messrs, | Gray and Lindsay, did not meet the ap- | Proval of Senators Davis and Lodge, and it was changed so that a unanimous agree- ment might be presented.

The Judges of the two branches of the Police | Court are firm in their convictions concern- ing the violations of this law, and if the supply of milk this summer is not of the best quality, it will not be their fault. It is absolutely no defense whatever in these cases to say “I sold the milk as I bougnt it.” The lew says that nothing but pure milk shall be sold, and the courts hold that the law means just what it says Inspector Shepherd of the health office ha@ three cases of selling impure milk in court yesterdur.
