Tewfik Pasha, while he was for a number of yearsthe Embassa- dor of the Turkish empire to this capital, was & well-known figure in Berlin society, and earned the reputation of being a pleasant gentleman and a diplomat who | was averse to getting into trouble, but rather fancied lcading a quiet and enjoy- able life. R Pasha, according to the correspondent of the Tagblatt, though an old man with snow-white hair, has the energy of a man in the prime of life, com- bined with ample diplomatic craft and a readiness to fight his opponents upon the slighest proyocation. He will not allow the palace clique to suppress him as they did Kiamil Pasba, and it will go hard with anybody who may attemptit. Inan in- terview with the Tagblatt’s correspondent, the Grand Vizier expressed with much warmth his satisfaction that Germany had | not joined in the English and general for- eign policy of denouncing the Turks, de- nunciations which, he declared, were as unrestrained as they were unjast. In regard to Russia’s occupation of Armenia under the administration of an international commission, the Frankfurter Zeitung publishes a telegram from its correspondent in Constantinople asserting that Nelidoff, the Russian Embassador to Constantinople, has declared tbat Russia would not accept the mandate of the powers in the pacification of Armenia. Itis reported that the prosecution of Professof Hans Dolbroeck, editor of the Preussische Jahrbucher for attacking Herr Von Koeller, the Prussian Minister of the Interior and the political police, is to be abandoned, public opinion against such . action having been found too strong to be antagonized with safety to the Ministry, and the prosecuting authorities have been instructed to confine their disciplinary measures to smaller game. The judgment of the Supreme Court at Leipsic in the case of Herr Zeime is re- carded as a defeat of the Socialist propa- ganda, and is especially so looked upon within the army. The case has been pending for a long time. Zeime, upon ths eve of the calling in of the recruits drafted . in 1894, delivered a harangue to the young workingmen of Berlin, in which he said: “You are about to be ‘deprived of your freedom and enter into slavery, I expect you to still do your duty as Socialists.” He was at once arrested, and the court in Berlin before which he was tried for his intemperate remarks finally acquitted him of the charge of inciting the military to e e A Spend your odd moments at Crockers’, Post street store.

The question was then carried to the Supreme Court at Leipsic, before which the Imperial Prosecutor pleaded that Zeime belonged to the re- serves and therefore fell under the juris- diction of the military authorities, and also maintained that the military code applied to socialist meetings where prob- able recruits were assembled. The Su- preme Court reversed the judgment of the Berlin court, and the decision fixes the law enlarging the powers of repression with which the authorities are clothed. The matter will now be the subject of in- terpellations in the Reichstag. The election of a new president of the Reichstag to succeed Baron von Buel Ber- enberg is already being discussed, and the members of that body are generally agreed that it is desirable to raise the prestige of the president of the Reichstag by select. ing for the position some parliamentary notable like Dr. von Bennigsen, though it is doubtful whether he will consent to leave the high and lucrative functions of | President of the i’rovince of Hanover for the troublesome and merely honorary post of president of the Reichstag. The Cen- trists are in expectation of electin: a member of their party to the presidency leaving the vice-presidents to the Con- servatives and National Liberals.

AGAINST THE PROJECT. He Is Inclined to Criticize the Present Government of the Islands. JOHNSON ON “OLD STAGERS” Preparing to Fight to Secure Con- gressional Plums for New Members. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 17.—The third California member of Congress to arrive in Washington is Hon. Samuel G. Hilborn of Oakland who, accompanied by his wife and daughter, Miss Grace, regis- tered at Willard’s Hotel. Mr. Hilborn left San Francisco two weeks ago, but stopped at several places en route. 1t is Mr. Hilborn’s ambition to serve on the Public Buildings and Grounds Com- mnittee, so he can get an appropriation for Oakland’s new public building. - It is said that Mr. Hilborn will take active interest in Haw aiian affairs when that subject is broached in the House, as it will be un- doubtedly. Though he has given no re- cent public expression of his views, it is remembered that upon his return from the islands this summer he was inclined to the opinion that the time was not yet vipe for annexation, and he had some criticism to make upon the Dole government. Hon. Grove L. Johnson of Sacramento, with bis wife and daughter, Miss Mabel, is comfortably quartered at the Hotel Coch- Mr. Bray, son of the ex-Senator, from Sacrumento, is also with him and will act as his secretary. Grove L. Jobnson’s reputation asa man of pre-eminent ability precedes him and his friends and admirers expect him to render conspicuous service to California.

United States to Petition for a Reduction. A Cut of at Least Twenty-Five Per Cent for Upper Berths Demanded. CHICAGO, Irn, Nov. 17.—A morning paper says: All the railroads in the United States using Puilman sleeping-cars are about to present a unanimous petition to the company to have the price of upper berths in its sleeping-cars lowered at least 25 per cent. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company has started the war against the Pullman rates. James R. Wood, general passenger agent of this road, has addressed a private letter to the general passenger agents of all the important railroads in the country using the Pullman sleeping-cars asking them to join him in a request to the Pullman Company to have the price of upper berths reduced at least 25 per cent below the price charged for lower berths. In his letter Mr. Wooa says that his com- pany is determined to have the price of upper berths lowered, and earnestly re- quests the co-operation of all roads using the Pullman sleeper. About two-thirds of the Chicago roads using these cars have agreed to join the Pennsylvania Company in its campaign for lower bertn rates. The matter has been kept extremely se- cret, only the general passenger agents knowing anything about it. A meeting of the general passenger agents of all the roads in the country using these cars will probably soon be called to take final action on the question. fight against the “ring.” He bas not picked out any committee position for himseif, and therefore will not be disap- pointed if he does not fare well, It is his ambition, however, to secure an additional appropriation for the Stockton public building. Seventy-five thousand dollars | has ealready been appropriated, Twenty thousand was paid for the lot and $2000 for incidental expenses, leaving $53,000, This amount is entirely inadequate, Mr. John- son says. It wili construct a very cheap and inferior building. “I do not believe in being too modest, said Mr. Johnson to a CALL correspondent, “and I will ask for $250,000 more. I may only get half this, and perhaps much less, but I will proceed on the plan of the cheap | clothing merchant who asks two prices Only the | officials of the embassy and the members | for a coat.” Mr. Johnson will also introduce a bill providing for the appointment of a board of United States engineers to examine and revort on the necessity for further im- provement of the California waterways— | the San Joaquin, Sacramento and Feather rivers in particular. If a laige appropria- tion be secured for dredging, snagging and for restraining works, hydraulic mining can be carried on without hindrance to the farmers. Major Heuer has reported that he has something over $150,000 unexpended and and available and he declines to ask for more, and as the War Department always acts upon the recommendation of its en- gineers in the field, there is little prospect of Congress appropriating more money, unless a new board of engineers can be appointed and induced to make a favor- able recommendation to Secretary La- mont and to Congress. Both Johnson and Barham speak well of Mr. Caminetti’s hydraulic mining bill and compliment the ex-Representative for his good work in getting it passed. ‘When asked about silver, Mr. Johnson said: *‘Every man of us is pledged to vote for free coinage, though I am somewhat doubtful about anything being accom- plished in this Congress. It woula be uscless, perhaps, to pass a free coinage bill, for Grover would veto it. Still that would not deter us from making a hard fight.” . TWO CENTURIES OLD. Annivereary Services in the Church Where William Penn Worshiped. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 17.—When the chimes in the belfry of Old Christ Church pealed forth the hour of morning service to-day that venerable parish re- corded the entrance into the third century of its honored and historic existenee. The church where George and Martha Washington worshiped and where the fam- ily of William Penn attended divine ser- vices was fittingly decorated for the cele- bration of its two hundredth anniversary. The interior of the building bas been re- cently renovated and the quaint colonial pulpit, towering above the high-backed pews in the body of the church was draped with the stars and stripes. Behind the pulpit hungon one side a colonial flag, on ‘tihe other the American emblem of to- ay. The semi-choral services incident to the occasion were of the most impressive char- acter and were read by Dr. Charles Ellis Stevens, rector of the church, assisted by several of the clergy. The sermon was preached by Dr. William J. Seabury of New York, professor of ecclesiastical polity in the General Theological Seminary, and. great grandson of Bishop Seabury. Dr. Seabury chose for his text a portion of Ecelesiastics xii:25, “The wisdom which hath made all things double one against the other.” LYNCHING IN MARYLAND. Frederick Goings, a Brutal Negre, Taken From a Jail and Hanged by a Mob. FREDERICK, Mp., Nov. 17.—Frederick Goings, a young negro, begeed food at the residence of Hamilton Giesbert, near this city, yesterday afternoon. After eatinga meal he attacked Miss Tillie Jones, who he discovered was alone in the house. In overcoming the girl’s resistance the negro broke her nose and cut her with a razor. He was arrested and held for a hearing on Monday, Later he was taken from the jail by a mob and hanged to a tree, on which a few years ago & negro named Bigus was lynched for the same crime. Shortly before midnight a committee of a half-dozen went to the jail door and de- manded the keys. Shenff Zimmerman refused to give them up. There was an- other consultation, the word was passed among the 300 persons in the mob and the whole body moved toward the prison. As the leaders reached the stout oaken side door Sheriff Zimmerman raised a window and fired his revolver, but no one was hurt. He also rang the jail bell for assist- ance, but none came. In an instant the jail door gave way be- fore tne infuriated citizens, A moment later a dozen stalwart men were hammer- ing at the door of Goings’ cell. While the negro crouched in a corner piteously begging for mercy, the bars of his cell door were wrenched from their fastenings and he was dragged out of the jail and lynched. SANK WITH THEIR CREWS, Two Fishing Schooners Lost Off the New England Coest, Thirty Seamen Thought to Have Gone to the Bottom With the Vessels. GLOUCESTER, Mass,, Nov. 17.—Word was received here to-day of the loss of the Helen E. Watkins and the John T. Blake, belonging to the fishing fleet of this port. The vessels are supposed to have foun- dered in the big gale which prevailed off the Grand Banks late in October. Both were stanch craft, and when the storm was over and no tidings of them were received it was thought that they had been blown out to sea and would return as soon as possible. The steamer Mongolian of the Warren line of steamships between Liverpool and Boston reports that it picked up a boat belonging to the Helen E. Watkins while 100 miles from the Great Banks. It also reports having vpassed a large amount of wreckage. Additional con- firmation of the loss of this schooner was received from the customs officials of St. Johns, Newfoundland, who telegraphed- that a greater part of the vessel had come ashore near St. Pierre. There is no doubt but that the whole crew of the Watkins, numbering fourteen men, perished, as it would be impossible for thenj to have reachzd. shore, owing to the fierceness of the gale. The customs officials of St. Johns tele- graphed that they had news of the loss of the Blake about twenty miles off Cape Race. It was seen by the schooner Idle- wild, which put into port to-day. The Blake was flying signals of distress, but the Idlew1ld was unable to assist her, owing to the heavy sea. The Blake was one of the largest vessels of the Gloucester fleet, and carried a crew of sixteen men, all of whom are undoubtedly lost. CALLS FOR MORE TROOPS The Force Sent to Quell the Uprising in Ontario Held in Check. Settlers Are in an Ugly Frame of Mind and Will Resist Dominion Officers. OTTAWA, Oxtaro, Nov. 17.—Word was received by the authorities to-day which shows that the threatened outbreak in the backwoods country in the region of the Upper Gatineau hills and forests north of Ottawa has assumed formidable dimen- sions; ard in spite of the declarations made by the investigaiing party of Do- minion police, the solving of these difficul- ties will not be an easy matter. On the return of the first expedition yes- terday, with the intelligence that the Irish settlers had warned them not to enter the disputed district, orders for military relief were issued and a company of men drafted from the Forty-third Battalion, Princess Louise Dragoon Guards, and the Ottawa light field battery was detailed to accom- pany the Dominion police. Late to-day, however, a dispatch was re- ceiyed from the commandant of the expe- dition ordering 200 more men to be sent on immediately, as he thougbt it imprudent to make an advance until his force had been considerably increased. The dis- patch also brought the inteliigence that the settlers were in a very ugly frame of mind and that the least provocation would incite them to open rebellion. : The leaders still announce their inten- tion of resisting by force of arms any at- tempt to abrogate what they claim as their righte. The authorities state that the trouble will be quietly disposed of and the leaders punished, but from a semi-official source it was learned that those acquainted with the conditions were positive that the affair would not bs disposed of so easily. The re-enforcement that left to-night went to Lowe and the advance will be made to- morrow. The authorities are in earnest and will punish vigorously any attempt at rebellion. PSR RAZED BY A HURRICANE. Great Destruction Wrought by the Recent Storm on the Bahamas. NASSAU, N. P., Nov. 12—The latest advices from Bimini 'and Grand Bahama show that the hurricane of the 21st ultimo was much more violent and destructive on those 1slands than was at first reported. Many local vessels were dismasted and driven ashore, and numerous buildings, in- cluding a church and the prison, were blown down, and several lives were lost.

HE COMES AS A MOSES. Warring Factions United Upon Him as a Compromise Candidate. PLANNED BY PIERPONT MORGAN European Interests Brought Around by the Influence of the Syndi. cate Leader. CHICAGO, Irn., Nov. 17.—A morning paper says: Private advices received from the East indicate the election of E. P. Ripley, the present third vice-president of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul, as president of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company, and of D. B. Robinson, present acting president of the company, as first vice-president. Mr. | Ripley’s name has not heretofore been mentioned in connection with the Atchi- son presidency, and his friends say he made no personal effort to secure the posi- tion. Up to a few days ago the principal can- didates were D, B. Robinson, the present acting president of the Atchison and gen- eral agent for the receivers, and E. Jeffery, the present president of the Denver and Rio Grande. The Boston and Ameri- can interests were strongly in favor of the election of D. B. Robinson on account of his personal popularity among the officials and employes of the road, his general fit- ness for the position and his intimate knowleage of the corapany’s affairs. The European bondholders favored E. T. Jef- frey, who for the last two or three years has managed the Denver and Rio Grande road with consummate skill and ability. A few days ago Mr. Coppell, chairman of the board of directors, announced the withdrawal of Mr. Jeffery’s name from the list of candidates, stating that under no circumstances would he (Mr. Jeffrey) consent to accept the position, it being the desire of the owners of the Rio Grande to retain his services as president of the com- pany. This, it was believed, would leave the field clear for Mr. Robinson. It ap- pears, however, that the American and foreign members of the joint executive re- organization committee were unable tol reconcile their differences. It dawned upon the American membeérs that unless they compromised their differences with the Europeans the latter would be able to elect the new board of directors and a president, regardless of the wishes of the | American bondholders. If a majority of | the joint executive committee could have elected a president, Mr. Robinson would have been saved, but, unfortunately for him, the reorganization agreement pro- vided as follows: *“The first board of directors of the new company shall, unless unanimously agreed upon by the joint executive committee, be selected as follows: The members of the joint executive committee nominated by the New York committee shall select such part of the whole number of the first board as will be, as nearly as possible, in proportion to the part of the whole amount of deposited general mortgage bonds and second mortgage bonds which shall have been originally deposited in America with any depository or the agents of any depo- sitory; the members of the London com- mittee and the Amsterdam committee to pursue a like course.” It bappens the London and Amsterdam committees hold a majority of the de- posited bonds, and unless the Americans agreed with them, they could elect the board under the foregvuing provision to suit themselves, and upon this board would devolve the task of electing a presi- dent. Therefore it became necessary to agree upon some man for president who was satisfactory to all parties, Aldace F. Walker, at present one of the receivers of the Atchison; S. M. Felton, president of the Queen and Crescent; and Thomas P. Fowler, president of the On- tasio and Western, had been proposed for the position of president of the Atchi- son, but the different interests were un- able to agree upon either of them unani- mously. Mr. Ripley’s name was not proposed until a day or two ago, and it became ap- parent at once that he was the Moses to lead the Atchison committee out of the desert. The Americah bondholders are mostly Boston people, and they liked Mr. Ripley because he came originally from Boston. The European interests, it is understood, were brought around to Mr. Ripley’s support by J. Pierpont Morgan, who knows Mr. Ripley well on account of his connection .with the Milwaukee and St. Paul, in which property Mr. Morgan is said to hold a controlling interest. QUICK TIME TO THE COAST. First Trip on the ¢Overland Flyer” on the Reduced Time Schedule. CHICAGO, IiL., Nov. 17.—The “Over- land Flyer” left the Chicago and-North- western Railway depot at 6 p. M. to-day on its initial run on the reduced time sched- ule and, if all goes well, the train will ar- rive at San Francisco at 8:45 ». . on Wednesday, being twelve hours faster than any previous schedule. The train tuns over the Chicago, Union Pacific and Northwestern line, and is equipped with all modern improvements. The reducing of the schedule makes it possible to leave on Saturday afternoon, reaching San Francisco Wednesday even- ing, transacting business at San Francisco and leaving there Thursday evening, and reaching New York early in the forenoon of the Monday following, thereby accom- plishing the journey from New York to San Francisco and return in about eight days, and being absent from business ex- actly one week. The train upon leaving Chicago was in charge of Conductor Edward Tracy and Engineer Tom Rogers. The engine is one recently from the Schenectady Locomotive Works and is one of the most powerful ever turned out by this well-known com- pany and capable of making almost un- limited speed with a heavy train. The schedule requires some very fast running 66 time over the Northwestern and Union Pacific, but the officers of the company are confident that the schedule can be main- tained without difficulty. - Among the large number of passengers on the initial trip were Major H. 8. Pick- ends and wife of Chicagoand H. 8. Crocker | —— NO BRANCH STORES ANYWHERE—— of California and a number of other promi- nent people from the East. SR D SR EULOGIZED BY ANARCHISTS. Herr Most and Charles Mowbray Praise Governor Altgeld. PITTSBURG, P\, Nov. 17.—Herr Johann Most and Charles Mowbray ad- dressed about 450 sympathizers with the “Red Flag” doctrine in Pittsburg last night. The audience was told that no ex- isting power was able to cheek or suppress the progress of anarchy. Governor Alt- geld of Illinois was eulogized and the re- marks of both speakers were wildly ap- plauded. Before and aiter the meeting Herr Most was successful in securing many paid-in-advance subscriptions to his Jour- nal of Anarchy. Arrangements had been made for an- other meeting this afternoon. Most and Mowbray, however, having secured the milk in the cocoanut, spent the remainder of the night in company with convivial friends. Early this morning they left Pittsburg en route for Buffalo. About seventy-five people applied for admittance tothe hall this afternoon, but the doors were not opened and they dispersed. s BETRAYED BY A PRISONER. Spring Valley Rioters Fail in an Attempt to Break Jail. PRINCETON, ILL., Nov. 17.—The Spring Valley rioters confined in jail here under a penmitentiary verdict made an attempt to escape to-day, but were prevented by a short-term - isoner notifying the Sheriff. A bole bad ween forced in the corrugated iron ceiling with the intention of going out of the roof, a route by which four prisoners three years ago made an escape. Sheriff Clarke called the 8pring Valley men together aud notified them that should any attempt to escape be made they would be shot. The prisoners were then put into their cells and extra guards placed on duty. et et i B M, ARTON UNDER ARREST, The French Ministry Probing the 0ld Panama Canal Scandal. Resolved Upon a Thorough Purifica- tion of Parliament and the Press. LONDON, Ex6., Nov. 17.—Emil Arton, whose name was very prominent during the height of the Panama scandal and who disapoeared from Paris when the matter promised to be made the subject of a judicial inquiry, has been arrested in this city on an extradition warrant dated August, 1892, charging him with fraud in connection with Dr. Herz and the late Baron de Reinach of the Panama Canal Company. It is said that Arton was the go-between between those who paid and those who received bribes to influence legislation favorable to the company. The prisoner was arraigned in the Bow- street extradition court and remanded until Thursday. PARIS, Fraxcg, Nov. 17.—The arrest of Arton is regarded here as a master stroke on the part of the Bourgeois Cabinet. In view of the revelations Arton is expected to make members of the Center party who were in no way implicated in the Panama scandal are not likely to attack the Gov- ernment, as they will fear to discredit themselves in bebalf of the implicated members of their party. The arrest is re- garded as proving that previous Ministries might have had Arton teken into custody i if they had wished to do so. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 18.—The Her- ald’s special correspondent ecables from Paris as follows: We are now expecting another sensational arrest—this time of an offender who was convicted, but who succeeded in making his escape. The Bourgeois Ministry, angered by sundry little pitfalls prepared for it by the Moderates, is determined to put an end to the present situation, and has resolved to probe thoroughly the guestion relating to the Panama Canal, the Southern Railway and the Algerian phosphate mines. The irregularities discovered in connec- tion with these last have already led M. Cavaignac to recall the official responsible for them. A still weightier matter is the question whether or not Arton will communicate a list of the Deputies compromised in the Panama scandals. The Ministry believes that he will keep silence, but if he doeg there are other ways in which the suspects mayhave their char- acters made known. There are only fif- teen or twenty of them in the Chamber, for the rest were not re-elected by their constituents. The Ministerial policy is precisely what was cabled on the first day of the new Cabinet’s existence. It aims at effecting the purification of both Parliament and press. ot I Fire Burns a Brewery.

As the day for the great struggle be tween the blue and the orange and black draws near interest is, if possible, increas- ing. Corbin, the old Yale center rush, who was one of the most interested spec- tators at the Harvard-Princeton game, ventures to predict success for Yale; but the other coachers are not so confident by and means, and no one has yet been found who does not believe that a victory by either side will have to be tharoughly earned. Bothelevens have bad their “off” games this year, and each has shown itsell capable at other times of playing the best of football. =3 Princeton, with her brilliant victory’ hind her, is not resting upon her -laur Yale is also making tremendous efforts’: to' get into proper form, and it has now ¢éme down to a question of which team’can make the greatest improvement during-the remaining time. A glance at’thé two teams shows abundance of good material on both sides. 3 Taking everything into con: the players on both teams-are ood condition. Just how stronga Yale will be able to place on_the field: thi Fu— is yet to be seen. . By the timé:afj'the rinceton game all the piayers will: he in good form again, and the team will-have been brought to the highest degrée'of .jer- fection to which it ean hope to attain. - Very little can be told this year -from comparative scores, for this has-. been: season of most unexpected turn: tune. The only test which can be sy satisfactorily is the actual meeting of ! elevens, each in its perfected condition. Gave Too, Much Credit. ' ELGIN, ILL., Nov. 17.—J. B.
