CEAMANS TO MD THE REPUBLICANS At Least That Is the Usual Sentiment in the ‘ Fatherland. | Some of the Papers Favor Free Silver, but Object to Bryan’s Dectrines. BRUTALITIES IN THE ARMY. | One Bully in Uniform Beats a Pri-| vate Until the Poor Fellow Commits Suicide. Oct. BERLLN, Ger The pro- ANY, ess of the Pres election campaign in the United States is watched with the keenest interest, though more from a hancial point of vie 1 with any idea of contrasting the social positions occu- pied by the candidates. | It is difficult. however, to get as vet even 1 ding newspapers which de- imns of space to the subject] an ent appreciation of the situnatian, Voluminous letters are received here by I ying to Germans the develop- | ments of the struggie in which so many of heir cou: e interested, but few of the ne re follow an intelli- it line of argument in discussiug the which the campaign compre- | from vote « ger The Vossische Zeitung publishes an | cle notable from among 'the othersin which it embodies the general German notion of the sitnation. In the course of | the editorial the paper says it is a rare thing in the political history of the United States that the Democrats of the old | school stand solidly together, shounlder to shoulder, with their old Republican op- ponents to fight against the so-called can- didate of the National Democratic party, Mr. Bryan, and it is still more surprising to old observers of political campaigns to see the Democrats of the Eastern States ding up for McKinley despite the fact he is the apostle of the doctrine of a h protective tar:ff, which they have tently combated for vears. The Vossische, quoting from the New York Handelszeitung in regard to thel latform upon which Mr. Bryan is mak- : his campaigu, proceeds to argue that ither the vprinciple of the currency nor the tariff especially inspires Mr. d nis followers, who, the paper simply strive to carry themselves along the old lines of belief that the spoils to the victors.

Since the downfall of the poltroon, Bruz- | incidents of a character simi- Jar to that of his dastardly attack upon | Siebemann at Carlsruhe have been brought to light, showing the exteat to which the ! uniform of the Kaiser's army is being dis- | graced by officers upon whom its enc: ment has the effect of turning their heads, | Among the recently revealed cases of | bratality, on the part of cfficers there comes to the front the murder of a private named Karl Bauer, attached to the gar- | rison at. Riedlinzen, Wurtemberg. An | officer whose name is not made public, | presumably because of the strength of the e behind him, 100k a dislike to Bauer and for some trivial offense caused him to be stripped and scrubbed until he | was almost flayed, pieces of the victim’s | skin banging from his body. Aftter this treatment Bauer was rolled up in a large | piece of carpet and thrashed with heavy | sticks. He was then released and-sent to | his in the barracks. Crushed | miliation and racked with pain Bauer tried to commit suicide, whereupon the lieutenant woo had caused him to be punished went to him and beat him with v.I).cJ flat of his sword until he cried like a child, The wretched man was then left alone, and a second time he attemuvted suicide. d a shot at his head, but, being almost exhausted from the effects of his tal treatment, he only succeeded in 2z his temple: He then vut the zle of his pistol in his mouth and fired in, the second shot crashing through ie roof of his mouth.

The new emigration bill whici1 the Gov- erument has proposed for submission to the Reichstag at the next session of that Dod » which ‘will begin on November 9, differs from tnhe previous measure in modifying the restrictions against emigra- 1,({ ) to other parts than Gernian colonies. Z it is reported that a sugar ring is in rrocess of formation whose membership :\'.Jl consist of 400 German sugar manu- fzcturers. This organization proposes 1o establish a central point for the sale of the vroduct of German sugar manufacturers, and nego ns are in progress with a View of connecting the orgamization with the Austrian and Russian sugar trasts, The ¥ reisinzige Zeitung, in an article an- nouncing the proposed formation of this Tiog, savs the scheme is a gross outrage, having for its object the exploitation of | Edward, who in | his leg was injured. consumers in an attempt to cement an op- pressive German sugar monopoly. The scheme, the Zeitung says, must be sup- pressed at all hazards. = The Bismarckian newspaper organs, in their comments upou the marriage of the Prince of Naples, Crown Prince of Italy. to Princess Helene of Mantenegro, which took place in Rome yesterday, connect the incidert with an English intrigue, whose object is to isolate Germany and cause the withdrawal of Italy from the Dreibund. Maximilian Harden, writing to tbe Zu- kunit, says that the Dreibund is now only an external semblance of an alliance. Germany, he says, cannot reckon upon her allies, as she knows full well that Russia may at any moment give her as- sent to the scheme of an enemy (France) frantic for revenge. The Zukunft, in its comments upon the communication, traces the present position of Germany back to the policy of the Emperor and his She cellor, General yon Caprivi, of disrupting that of Prince Bismarck and endeavoring to conciliaie Russia, S The Berliner Tageblatt, eriticizing Prince Bisinzrek’s communications to the Hamburger Nachrichten, the Chancellor’s personal organ, upon the origin ‘of the entente between Russia and France, charges the Prince with having used his influence so discredit the Government of the Kaiser before the world, and suggests that the time has come when it is imper- ative that the current disciosures and criticisms adverse to the real interestsof Germany should be stopped. INSURGENTS ARE VICTORIOUS. Maceo and His Foliowers Bombard a Town and Cross the Trocha Into Havana Province. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 25.—A Herald special from Key West, Fla., says: Well-informed passengers from Havana confirm advices received by mail that | Maceo has crossed the trocha at Artemisa and joined other insurgent iorces in Ha- vana provinge. The declare that the report circulated by Maceo of his encampment at Cacarajicara, rd a con’emplated attack on that town, mere .y a feint of the rebel leader to w: concentrate the Spanish troops at that point. That the rnse was successful is proved by the fact that General Gonzales Munoz, | jgea prevailed that the Civil Code would with large forces, was sent in that direc- tion to attack Maceo, but npon their ar- rival at Cacarajicara the Spaniards found nothing but a deserted camp. Maceo’s followers under forced marches | then made a detour to the southward and suddenly appeared at Artemisa, the cen- tral post on the trocha line. Giving his men temporary rest the insurgent chief sent word to the commandant that he in- tended to bombard the town, giving the inhabitants five hours in which to leave the city. - Not heeding Maceo's threats, the Span- jards would permit no one to leave. The result is known from the reports which have already beeén cabled from Havana. Maceo opened fire on the town with his artillery and thirty shots from the rebel dynamite gun were thrown into the city. Every building is said to have been i leveled while the slaughter of noncom- | batants was appalling, During the car- nage Maceo and his followers crossed the line of the trocha into Havana province, where they joined the forc:s of General Aguirre.

ROME, ItaLy, Oct. 25.—The Prince of Naples and his bride went this morning to the Pantheon and placed a wreath upon the tomb of Kinz Victor Emmanuel, grandfather of the Prince. The streets were crowded with people who had come from various parts of the country to wit- ness the wedding pageant yesterday, and the newly married couple were enthusias- ation ia the United | tically acclaimed as they drove from the Quirinal to the Pantheon. This aiternoon the Crown Prince and Crown Princess gave a reception at the Quairinal to the syndics of the various lialian towns who came to Rome to pre- sent congratalatory addresses to them.

Washington Mills at Lawrence Mass., Swept by Fire. LAWRENCE, Mass., Oct. 26.—A fire started 1n the Wasnington mills at 11 o’clock to-night. It started in what is known as mill No. 24. This is used as a dry-room and tons of dried wools are stored there. In a few minutes the fire was conquered in the drying-room, but it had spread to the main mill. It ran along the outside until it reached Mill 2, but was put out by automatic sprinkiers. It then broke out in the wet finishing-room and went from there 10 the weaveroom. After it was thought to be under control, another fierce fire was found in the dry- house. » It was then discovered that the spin- ning room was ablaze. The fire spread to the carding-rooms. Joseph MacDermott f Engine 4 was overcome by smwoke. An- other fireman fell through ‘a scuttle and Spontaneous com- bustion is the supposed cause. 7The lossis very heavy. At 2o'clock the fire was not under control. The A RES e B Twenty Stores Burned. DALLAS, Tex., Oct. 25.—Passengers on. the southbound afternoon fanta Fe train report about twenty business houses burned by fire at Ladonia, Tex., this morning. One-half the business district was burned about ten days ago and to- day's fire leaves the town without a store. Details have not reached Dallad R E W A Large Warehouse Burned. GALVESTON, Tex., Oct. 25.—Early this morning fire destroyed a large ware- house and 3500 bales of cotton, 1nvolving a loss of $25,000 on the building and $115,- 000 on the cotton. About 75 per cent of the cotton was saved in a damaged con- dition. The entire property was insured for $160,000. CAN'T OWN ANY LAND 1N JAPAN Foreigners, However, Can Get Leases for Build- ing Sites. e Sban-| After the Abolition of Consular Jurisdiction Favorable Terms May Be Secured. MERCHANTS MADE BANKRUPT. An Alarming State of Affairs Among the Business Men of Tokio Disclosed. TOKIO, Jarax, Oct. 10.—The publica- tion of the new Japanese Civi! Code ren- ders it cleor that the complaints made by Europeans and Americans about the tenure of land under the revised treaties are baseless. Ownership of land by aliens has always been opposed by the Japanese and is forbidden by the new treaties. On the other hand, unless foreigners should be able to obtain land for long periods, it was not easy to see Low they could reap any advantages from the open- ing of the country aftér the abolition of Consular jurisdiction, sincé the building of stores, warehouses or factories outside the present settiements would be virtually impossible. That leases of building sites could be obtained was not doubted, but an restrict the term of leasing to thirty years, a period plainly insufficient for the pur- poses of business men. It is now found, however, that although the privilege of owning land is withheld, foreigners will be able to obtain land for any number of years in the capacity of “superficiaires.” In that capacity they will be able to purchase a right of tenure holding good for whatever term is entered on the face of the contract, and the right will include absolute ownership of all buildings, trees, or bamboos on the land. If the term be not fixed by the parties to the contract, the intervention of a court of law may subsequently be invoked by the owner should the original conditions of tenure prove onerous to him. But that is a secondary question, The main fact 13 thatafter the abolition of consular juris- diction in 1899, foreigners will be able to obtain leases of land in any and every part of Japan for whatever term of years they may think convenient. An alarming state of affeirs has been disclosed among a section of Japan’s busi- ness men. Several of the Tokio dealers in cotton piece-goods had been for some time getting their notes freely discounted by the banks when the latter, having their suspicions aroused by precautionary ac- tion on the part of the Bank of Japan, re- fused to discount amy new bills or renew the old. The result is that about eleven commission merchants are threatened with bankruptcy, their liabilities aggre. gating nearly 2,000,000 yen. There is some apprehension of a panic, but probably a compromise will be effected. The new line of Japanese steamers to Australia was opened on October 3, the | pioneer steamer being the Yamashiro Maru, belonging to the Nippon Yusen Kaisha. The Yamashiro Marn is a fine steamer of 2500 tons, beautifully fitted, and. affording to passengers all the com- forts of 2 crack Atlantic liner. Her de- parture from Yokohama was made the oc- casion of a celebration on a liberal scale. Japan'has now lines of steamers running to Vladivostock, Europe, America and Australia. From the provinces of Anhui and Hu- kuang, in China, reports have been for- warded to Peking describing the great hardships suffered by the people on ac- count of inundations. In both cases a waterspout is mentioned as the prime cause of the trouble. The Emperor simply ordered the Governorof Anhui and the Viceroy Chang to devise means foralleviat- ing the distress and for carrying off the surplus water. His Majesty is not particu- larly helpful, it must be confessed. Another case of violent assault against a foreigner is reported from China. It occurred at Pootung, near Shanghai, and the victim does not’seem to have given any provocation whatever. He was as- sailed by a party of roughs and severely handled, but managed to effect his escape, losing only his dog, which was cruelly killed. Several outragesof a similar na- ture have been committed in the same dastrict. As an illustration of the popular admin- istration of justice in China, the cose of a man that stole a Tarmer’s wife at a place some 300 miles inland from Hankow is in- structive. The thief sold tbe woman for ten ounces of silver, which appears to be about the tariff in mountainous districts of China. He was caught by the husband of the woman, and two other men, who carried him t¢ a particular tree near a Buddhist monastery, and strung him up by his wiists tied behind his back so that his body was bent forward and his toes barely touched the ground. In that posi- tion he was hammered with a large stone at the base of nis spine gnd on his ankles. This was by way of preliminary to carry- jing him to the magistrate’s yamen, where he was sentenced to decapitation. Anti-foreign feeling at Chengtu is re- ported to be so bad that the Roman Cath- olic fathers, who have lived there for years, no longer venture to walk in the city, knowing that to do so would expose them to insult and perhaps attack, ALL CAUSED BY KEROSENE While Trying to Hasten a Fire an Unfortunate Weman _ Meets Death. Her Sick Husband and Five Children Rescu=d by a Heroic Little Girl. CAMDEN, N. J., Oct. 25.—The hasten- ing of a fire with kerosene brought the shocking death of. a mother and imper- iled the lives of ber sick husband and five little children this morning. Harris Freedlander and his family occupy a little two-story dwelling, 268 Sycamore street. Freedlander has been ill with typhoid fever and the family have been in sore straits. When Mrs. Freedlander arose this morning she found that her kitchen fire had died out during the night. She saturated some kindlings with ‘kerosene and placed the can on top of the stove and touched a matc: to the kindling. The next instant there was an explosion that shook the house, and, mingled with agonized screams, it startled the sick man above-stairs and aroused the sleeping children, Freedlander leaped out of ped nd ran downstairs. Neighbors who heard the explosion, the screams and Freed- lander’s frantic cries sent in a call for the firemen. Meanwhils the children, aroused by.the confusion, attempted to get down- stairs, but the oldest girl held them back when she found smoke pouring up the stairway in such volume as to almost suf- focate her. Led by the eldest girl, the children climbed out upon a shed. “The baby,” cried some of the gathered people, excitedly, “‘where is the baby?” The older children had forgotten the sleeping child in the confusion, but the little heroine of the occasion, never flinch- ing, clambered back through the window, got the baby and brought it out in tri- umph. The little ones were easily gotten down from the shed and cared for by the neighbors. Responding to the alarm the firemen reached the house and scon had the flames in the kirchen subdued. As the smoke cleared away the shapeless form of the unfortunate wife and mother was found on the floor. The flames had charred her body into an unrecognizable mass and she was buried before dark. —_—— Whipped and Mutilated, DE SOTO0, Mo., Oct. 25.—The 10-year-old daughter of Frank E. Settle, a farmer, was assaulted Friday evening when returning home from school by Barney Courtway. A posse led by a constable was soon on the trail and Courtway was captured.

Wells’ Horrible Death in an Entombed Casket, Discovery Made by an Under- taker Sent to Exhume the Remains. INTERRED WHILE IN A TRANCE The Victim Was Once.a Resident of Ca'averas County, Cali- fornia. PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 25.—A horrible tale of living inhumation comes from Ju- neau, Alaska, in a letter received by George P. Wirtz of this city. ‘Che victim was Carlton F. Wells, who left Southern Oregon almost two years ago for the Arc- tic gold fields, where, aiter accumulating a fortune of $20,000, he was to all appear- ances stricken down by heart disease in Juneau last May. Just prior to Wells’ ap- parent death he forwarded the bulk of nis little fortune to his wife, now living in Trenton, N. J., whither he was bound when life’'s cord was snapped asunder. A little more than a month ago the undertaker who attended to the burial of Wells received a letter from his widow asking that the body be exhumed and shipped East for permanent interment. The instructions were being complied with when a ghastly discovery obstructed their execution. ‘When the coffin containing Wells’ body was opened the remains were found to lie in a cramped position with the face turned toward the side of the coffin. Closer inspection showed beyond doubt that Wells had awakened from a death- like trance after burial. In the right hand, of which little more than the bones remained, was clutched a gntta percha plate bearing three false teeth, which in his agony Wells must have torn from the roof of his mouth. Near the place where his right jaw rested in the coffin was found a plain gold ring which the de- ceased had worn on the fourth finger of his right hand. In view of this horrible discovery the nndertaker and the doctor who attended Wells decided not to send the remains East unless forced to do so by legal pro- cess. What excuses they have formulated to appease the widow is not known. Mr. Wirtz says that Wells formerly lived in Calaveras County, Cal., and once resided in Virginia City, Ney. While he was in Southern Oregon his wife sojourned the greater part of the time with friends in East Portland, where she is quite well known.

This deploravle condition continues in an aggra- va:ed form. It has therefors nominated in the interest of £00d government, and irrespective of party poll- tles, a ticket which it asks the voters in the City to support. The return of the bosses to the scenes of their nefarious operations, the failare of justice in deal- ing with these conspirators, and the open organi- zation of corruptionists, have compelled the Non- Partisan Party to weed out doubtful or known bad men, and place before the voters of this city men who are believed to be honest and honorable. Each candidate indorsed by the Non-Partisans has signed a pledge, which is on file with the sec- retary, to conduct the affairs of the city economi- cally, honestly, and on business principles, and embracing the foilowing obligations: Provide for the fullest enjoyment of religions liberty; Pub'ic schools to be liberally supvlied and eco- nomically managed: Total tax levy not to exceed 81 on the $100 on assessed value of §300,000,000. One-twelith Act rigidly enforced, and no ex= penses incurred except by authority of the Super- visors: Golden Gate Park to be fmproved for the benefit of the people; expense not to exceed 5 cents on the $100. Streets and sewers to be improved, superintend- ent to be a civil engineer, and business methods employed; Eight hours & day’s work: home labor and ma- terial to be preferred in all cases : County Clerk’s office to be ran within $6000 per month; City and County Surveyor’s fees, cost of janitor service at City Hall, and shorthand reporting, to bereduced ; All departments of City Government to be re- moved from partisan politics: Free use of Telephone by City: no franchise or extensions granted without direct benefit to City. Itisthe purpose of the Citizens’ Non-Partisan Party to see, as far as In its power, that such can- didates, it elected, shall carry out their pledge to the tetter. Every citizen recognizes the demoralized condi tion of our Municipal Government, and will admit that constant watchfulness is necessary to stamp out existing abuses and prevent the growth of others. Good officers need their arms strengthened agains: schemers and temptation, and faithful officers are entitled to support; while those who fall In their duty, or yield to the debasing Influ- ence of the bosses, or to the direct or indirect bribes of corporations, should be made to feel the strong arm of the law. The Citizens’ Non-Partizan Party’s aim Is to se- cure to the City of San Francisco a good govern- ment, and for this purpose its organization will continue until its aim is accomplished. 1t is therefore justified in asking the effective and earnest support of all citizens of San Fran- cisco, rrespective of party politics, in its efforts to secure at the coming election good officers for the City ot San Francisco. §' NON-PARTISAN Y COMMITTEE : GEORGE K.
