TARIFF WAR: 1N FULL BLAST The Situation Between Russia and Ger. many Is Becoming More Strained. Krupp Employees Discharged For Dlvuiging Factory Secrets. BERLIN, Sept. 21.—N ever before have the German naval maneuvers been con- ducted with so much secrecy as this year. There has always been a rule to exclude from witnessing the maneuvers the naval attaches of .the various nations accredited .to Berlin and to prevent as much as possi- ble accurate reports of the evolutions reaching the press. But this year these regulations were more rigidly enforced than ever before. However, the corre- spondent of the Associated Press is relie ably informed that the special features of the maneuvers aimed at demonstrating two propositions—the relative safety of large ironclads from torpedoes when sev- eral miles from shore and the ability of torpedo, destroyers to cope with torpedoes. The evolutions in the Baltic, where the ships were the safest from observation, were of the highest importance and Were satisfactory to the naval department. These maneuvers, which lasted three weeks, were ended on Tuesday last at Helgoland. The evolutions there began on Sunday and consisted of an attempt upon the part of seven ships, including three huge iron- clads, to effect a landing on that island. At one period the ironclads Sachsen and Wurtemburg, favored by a dense fog, ap- proached within two miles of Helgoland, but were driven off after shelling the is- land for hours by the effective fire from a battery of howitzers placed there last sum- mer by command of Emperor William. The long range Krupp fortification guns were also satisfactorily tested by Commo- dore Stubenrauch, the commander of the island. It was shown that a single shot from these big guns at a distance of over _a mile can instantly disable the most pow- erful ironclad. On Tuesday night the fleet was declared hors de combat. ' The army maneuvers just concluded were unusually prolific of fatal and se- rious' accidents, owing to the weather and the bad roads. Count von Kanitz of the Fourth dragoons hdd a fatal'fall dur- ing a charge, and seven other cavalry ofli- cers wereseriously injured. The Tariff \Var. The tariff war between Germany and Russia is in full blast. The Russian gov- ernment has issued a‘oircular abrogating all import favors granted to Germany in 1894 in regard to leathergoods, buttons, beads, technical instruments, celluloid, machiney, etc. Leather goods, for which immense orders were placed some time ago in Berlin. Offenbach and Frankfort on the basis of a much lOWer duty, will hereafter have to pay 2 srubles per pood, and the manufacturers and merchants of those towns have appealed to the foreign office here to try to arrange matters. it is not expected that the appeal will mend things, as the Russian. press con- tinues to urge further retaliatory tariffs. The national meeting of the beet sugar manufacturers occurred in this city early in the week, and a resoluton was adopted asking the reichstag to amend the exist- ing law so as to eliminate the paragraph restricting and localizing the amounts manufactured by each factory. The di- rectors were also requested to prepare a plan for creating a German sugar syndi- cate “in view of the dire needs of the in- dustry,” and the government was also asked to. bring about an international agreement with France and Austria for the abrogation of direct and indirect ex- port bounties, the uselessness whereof, it was asserted, was plainly demonstrated. 'It is difficult to conceive a more drastic example of shortsightedness upon the part of the agrarians or to imagine any greater legislative fiasco than that achiev- ed by the sugar bounties export bill. At a recent conference between Prince Hohenlohe and Count von Posadowsky, secretary of the imperial treasury, the imperial budget for 1897-8 was fixed con- siderably higher than that of the present year, especially in the case of the navy and the colonies. The international congress of woman’s rights will assemble in a very few days in the session hall of the city hall of Ber- lin. Six hundred delegates are expected to be present, including an American, Miss Frances G. French. Traitors In Krupp’s. The dismissals of employees of the Krupp factories, which have attracted considerable attention, were in the cannon department. It appears that some of the employees sold to a representative of the Austrian government the drawings of the new gun which can be moved laterally in 1 every direction without moving the car- riage. The German commissioner to the Paris exhibition, Dr. Richter, starts early this week on a tour of south Germany in order to enlist the various governments and the. manufacturers in the movement. He thinks that the outlook is promising for a. large participation upon the part of Ger- many at the great exposition in the French capital during 1900. The deep sea fishing congress, which took place in Berlin during the week, was widely attended. Emperor William] granted the sum of 2,000 marks out of his private purse to assist in defraying the expenses. His majesty is desirous of fos- tering the fishing interests of Germany and is in favor of state assistance for this purpose. The convention of the National Lib- eral party has been ~called for Oct. 2 in this city, and the delegates will try to ef- fect a reconciliation between the two fac- tions, one favoring and the other opposing the agrarians. _ But it is feared that the efforts will miscarry, although the fight cost the Liiberals a’dozen seats in the reichstag last year. - The department of the interior has or- dered all the local authorities of Prussia to report to. the police within three days the arrival and presence of returned Ger- man emigrants. A returnpf. the grip is feared in this city. Ten deaths from this disease have already occurred during the past week. The ‘Wind “'11s Too Strong.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.—-—George S. Rob- inson, a near relative by marriage of ex- ,Governor Roswell P. Flower and a real es- tate broker doing business at 145 Broad- way, committed suicide some time yester- day morning by inhaling illuminating gas in his apartments in the fashionable board- ing house 4 West Forty-seventh street. The dead man left two letters, one ad- dressed to his wife, who is a niece of ex- Governor Flewer, and the other to his fa- ther, Dr. Robinson. a prominent dentist of Watertown, N. Y. In these letters he made statements tending to show that his rash act was premeditated and the result of dread lest he should become insane through worry over financial difficulties. What these financial difficulties are is not known to his family, as his affairs were supposed to be in good condition, and he was looked upon‘ as a prosperous and, ris- ing young business man. _ The coroner gave a permit for the re- moval of the body to Watertown. Ex- Governor Flower, who arrived in town three days ago from his summer home, took charge of the arrangements. “Mr. Robinson committed suicide on account of ill health, ” ex-Governor Flow- er said. “He had the grip last winter, and the effects of the disease lingered in his system. He did not seem melancholy and was the last person whoI should have thought Would commit suicide. .He lived happily with his wife, and there was no family trouble of any kind. “Of the business worry that he spoke 1 know nothing whatever. He never told me anything about it. He was in the real estate business, and _I altvaysun‘derstood that he was doing well. ” Peter J. Brady, Robinson’s attorney, who shares his office with him, at 145 Broadway, and is also a partner with him in the real estate business, refused to say anything about his business aflairs except that the dead man’s accounts are much involved. HE HAS A WHITE BAR.’ And the Czar, It Is Said, Will Not Live Very Long. LONDON, Sept. 21.—A gentleman who was with the czar in Germany and'who had an hour’s conversation with him, says that the haggard appearance of the Rus- sian emperor and empress was much re- marked. The czar, he added, Alooks white, nervous and worried, casts furtive glances over his shoulders and. sometimes turns ghastly white, while the czarina is worn, pale and sad, as though dreading something. A member of the czar’s suit remarked in conversation with the narrator that the czar would not live long. Asked whether he meant that he would be assassinated by nihilists, the gentleman referred to re- plied: “No; but he has a white ear.” Those who have personally conversed with the czar expressed the opinion that his majesty’s personality is not nearly so strong as that of the czarina, who, al- though depressed in spirits, is amiable, charming and beautiful. THE PHILIPPINE REVOLT. Insurgents Plunging Plantations, Sucking Convents and Murdering Monks. MADRID, Sept. 21.-—-Oificial advices are to the effect that the Philippine islands, rebels now number 5,000. An .engagement recently occurred, and many persons were wounded. A dispatch to The Heraldo from Hongkong says that the Philippine islands insurgents are mas- ters of all the towns in the province. At Cavlte the convents were sacked and the plantations pillaged. Six monks have been murdered, and the fate of 30 others is unknown. - Helped Ruin the Bank. NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 21.—Louis. Gallot has been arrested fer aiding and abetting Bookkeeper Lou-is Colomb in defrauding the National bank. Gullot, who was a dealer in photographic supplies and a speculator, put about $5, 000 in the bank in 1890 and during the four years succeed- ing is said to have drawn out $20,000,. Colomb always keeping a balance of from $300 to 8800 to his credit. When the sys- tem of bookkeeping was changed to the skeleton system, Colomb, instead of clos- ing the account, left a balance Of $1, 000 to Gallot’ s credit. The Gold Reserve. WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.—The treasury yesterday lost $21,000 in gold coin and $15,000 in bars, which leaves the true. amount of the gold reserve $115,660,569. Reports to the department are that a to- tal of $3,000, 000 in gold has been deposit- ed at New York and San Francisco in ad- dition to that above reported. When these are taken up in the accounts, the reserve will be approximately $118,700,000. She Sues the Burdens. NEWPORT, R. 1., ,Sept. 21.—Bridget Boyle has brought an action against Isaac Townsend Burden and wife for $3,000. The suit grows out of the Burden diu- mond robbery. Miss Boyle was thena servant in the Burden mansion in New York and was arrested as a suspect, but afterward established her innocence.

ANTlTOXlNE, DIPHTH‘EYIIA’S FOE. Mortality from the Disease. Ill Boston Reduced One-Half. It is seldom that the use of any agent in the. treatment of disease has met with the complete and lasting “success that has attended the use of antitoxine in diphtheria cases. The success in its use has been marked, and it is a conserve tive estimate to say that since it has come into use, the mortality from diph- theria has decreased one-half. ‘ As a1 matter of fact, it is probable that the use of antitoxine, has reduced the death'rate from this disease to a much greater extent, as from the ease with 'which cases are treated with the new agent many can at once be taken care of, which under the old system of treat— ment might, through the poverty of the family. or through other causes haVe reached such an advanced stage that it. would be difficult to combat it. Interesting as the use of Antitoxine in the actual application of the Agent to diphtheria. is, it is a small part of what - it means to the medical profession. As soon as it was found out that there could be no doubt that antitOxine could be successfully used In fighting diph- theria, medical men all over the world asked themselves 'why the same system could not be applied to diseases of like nature, and the‘ result is that experi- ments are now going on which, if suc- cessful, bid fair to revolutionize certain lines of medical science.-Boston Tran- script THE VALUE OF CONFIDENCE. some of the Secrets of Success in, Business ‘ Exposed. .

MANUFACTURING HAARP'ms. Toilet is Made. ‘ . For ages the English and French controlled the manufacture of hair pins, and it is only within the last tiventy years that the goods have been produced in other countries to . any extent. The machinery ulsed is of a‘ delicate and intricate character, as the'prices at which the pins 0are sold necessitate the cheapest and most rapid process, which can only be se- cured by automatic machines, says Pearson’s Weekly. The wire is made expressly for the purpose, and put up in large coils, which are placed in a clamp, and so carried to the machine while being straightened. This machine cuts, bends, and by a delicate instantaneous process sharpens the points. Running at full speed, it will turn out 120 hair~ pins every minute. To economize, it is necessary to keep the engines going day and night. The difi‘icult part of the work is in the euameling, which is done by dipping the sharp pins in a prepara- tion and baking in an oven. It is here that the most constant and care- ‘ful attention is reQuired, as the pins must be absolutely smooth and the enamel have a perfect polish. The slightest particle of dust causes imé perfections, and roughness. ...... A correspondent of the Washington Post says: I wish the people who write these marvelous directions about‘what to do in emergencies would print at the top of the column in the very largest type, “Don’t try to dodge a bicycle.” I am sure it would materially decrease the number of bicycle accidents. A marked copy ought to go to a woman I saw in K street the other day. She was the sort of woman who was a giddy girl in the beginning. She isn’t a girl new, but she is girlier than ever.

Then, with a series of screams, she wobbled back and forth, the man on the wheel all the while trying to avoid her. It seemel an hour at least that they were at it, and just when her utter destruction seemed unavoidable the man sacrificed himself and fell against the curbstone. He didn’t say anything.
