The Cruisers \Vhich It Refused to Sanc- tion He Has Ordered to Be Built. He Has Also Abolished the Na- tional Defense Commission. Berlin, June 14.———Since the arrival chief of the navy department, Emperor William’s plans to increase the strength of the German navy have been taken up in earnest. Admiral Tirpitz .is reckoned to be the boldest and most energetic man in the navy. He is popularly known as the Naval Moltke, and his ideas and aims respecting the future . development and reorganization of the navy are in thorough accord with those of his majesty, who hopes Admiral Tir- pitz will succeed where Admiral von Hollmann failed in inducing the reich- stag to adopt big naval credits. The emperor intends to have ten big iron- clads and 16 cruisers built by.1900., Considerable Comment has been arousd by the fact that the emperor has ordered the Germania shipbuilding -.: yards to build the very cruisers which , have been rejected by the reichstag. Admiral Tirpitz is now making a '- tour of inspection of the naval yards VVilhelmshaven, Stettin, Elb- On his return he will frame a new naval bill, in which the necessity of putting the German navy on an equal footing with the French and Russian navies will be of Kiel, . forcibly stated. Another Obstacle Removed. Great amazement has been caused by the” fact that the emperor in a cabinet order has dissolved the national de- fense commission, an important mili- ' . tary body created years ago by his grandfather and of which Field Mar— shal von Moltke was the head until his death. He was succeeded by Prince Albrecht of Prussia. His majesty’s motive is supposed to be to get rid of the irksome control of his plans for the new fortifications or his alterations of existing ones, which required until re- cently the. decision of the commission. ; It is now said that Emperor William himself desires to reform the secret po- litical police and change the system of intercourse between the cabinet minis— ters and the press. This may be due to ' the fact that the revelations of the Von Tausch trial are still being busily dis- cussed, and the National Liberals have decided to question the government in the diet on the steps which it.is in- tended to take to improve the police system. It also appears that Von Tausch is not yet out of danger. It is fairly certain that he will be tried for treason respecting his reported utter- ances about the emperor’s health. The Baltic Canal Deficit. Emperor William has had a. small iron cottage erected in the garden of the garison hospital at Heligoland, which he will inhabit during his stay on that island. The building is 30 yards long by 15 yards wide and consists of a study, bed chamber, bathroom and servants’ room. There is a small closed veranda, painted gray, green and white outside and relieved by brown, white and gilt ornamentation inside. The Prussian eagle has been made to take a leading part in the decorations. Official statistics show a deficit of 1,000,000 marks in the Baltic canal. Dur- ing the past year 19,960 vessels of 1,848,- 458 tons passed through this waterway. Of this number 17,862 of the vessels were German, 828 were Danish, 219 were British, 455 were Swedish, and 375 were Dutch vessels. Meetings to protest against the reac- tionary associations bill of the diet are being held'throughout Prussia. Thirty- six of these “meetings were held in Ber— lin alone on Wednesday. Prince Henry of Prussia has sailed from Kiel on board the German cruiser Koenig Wilhelm in order to attend the diamond jubilee of Queen Victoria. An Arbitrary Consul. The German export merchants of Sonneberg have formally protested to Prince Hohenlohe against United States Consul Partellos requiring single 0r triple samples of thelgoods they export to America, these goods being dolls, toys and porcelain articles, which, they contend, are not suited for samples. The German newspapers, notably The Na- tional Zeitung, declare the consul’s con- duct is arbitrary and not in accord with his instructions. Prince Hohenlohe and Baron Mar- schall von Bieberstein‘s substitute, Bar- on von Rotenham, the under secretary for foreign affairs, received Mr. Andrew D. White, the new United States em- bassador, at the foreign office Thursday morning. Mr. White was introduced by Secretary Jackson. The health of Mr. Edwin F. Uhl, the former United States embassador to Germany, has failed lately, and he has gone to Gasten with his family for the cure. Mr. Uhl will return to the United States in July, but the members of his family will remain abroad until the au- tumn. At a musicale soiree at the palace of Potsdam on Friday all the guests ap- peared in the uniform or in the court costume of 1797, the birthday of Em- peror William I, in honor of whose be- trothal 70 years ago the fete was given. A new wedding march, the words and music of which were by the emperor, was given, and a chorus of children from the cathedral took part in it. Preference For Veterans.

The Statement of a Norwalk Citizen That’May Save ' You Much Future Trouble. You contract a cold in the chest. One that stays a while with you. It won’t leave even after you have abused it to your heart’s content. You have to eject it, break it up. or scatter it; Goose grease freely rubbed in has been known to do the trick. Well, after you have gotten it there is no reason why you should not contract a second in a month or perhaps in a year. Frail humanity is no more cold-proof than buttel proof. It is so with other ailments of the body. Take the kidneys. They go wrong and raise an internal row. They often right themselves like the liver, without using any medicine, but as a rule kidney troubles stay awhile. Then linger on and recur semi—annually or periodically and as the victim ages he is crippled in the back—twisted and contorted out of shape and is a regular hotbed of pains and aches. If you have anything wrong with your kidneysfollowthe planadopted by G. S. Partrick of 127 Main street, Notary Public, who says: “ Mrs. Par- ,trick had a. severe attack of backache. Just at the time we both noticed an an- nouncement about Doan’s ' idney Pills and came to the conclusion if they only carried out half what they promised, they would remove the. trouble. My wife got a box at Glendenning’s drug store and took them. They gave her relief. We can recommend the prep- aration. ” Doan’s Kidney Pills are for sale by all dealers. price 50 cents per box, 6 boxes for $2.50. Sent by mail on receipt of price. Foster-Milburn 00., Buffalo, N.

Prince Ferdinand Laid to Have Ordered a \‘Vuman‘; Assassination. ‘ London, June Liv—An extraordinary story of a. murder comes from Philip- popolis, Bulgaria, where a Captain Boitcheff, the' prefect of police, one Novitich, and a. gendarine have been arrested. on the charge of murdering Anna Szimon, a beautiful public singer and the alleged lover cf the captain. The captain, it appears, became tired of Anna and determined to get rid of her. With the aid of the prefect and the captain's brother she was chloro- formed and taken in a cab to the banks of the Maritza river, where the gen- darme was in waiting. The gendarme then threw her into the water. The prefect of police has confessed. He says he was told by Captain Boit- cheff that Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria had ordered the woman to be killed. In connection with this declaration it is pointed out that the accomplice of the captain was a court gendarme of the prince’s palace. Captain Boitcheff was one of the ca- dets who assisted in kidnaping Prince Alexander of Bulgaria and in driving the carriage in which the prince was transported to the coast. Prince Ferdinand, when he succeed- ed Prince Alexander, took a fancy to _Boitcheff, had him educated and at.- tached to the suit of Princess Marie Louise with the rank of prince’s ad- jutant. Boitcheff’s laison with Anna Szimon was known to everybody in society. Captain Bcitcheff made a rich mar- riage recently, when the laison with the unfortunate singer was much dis- cussed. AN AIRSHIP ABLAZB. Its Two Occupants Burned to Death Three Thousand Feet Above Earth. Berlin, June 14.~Herr Woelfert, an aeronaut, accompanied by a mechanic named Knabe, made an experimental ascent in a so called steering airship from the Tempelhos common last even- ing. _ ‘When the balloon, which had been filled at the military ballooning estab- lishment, had reached a height of 3,000 feet, a loud explosion occurred, and the next moment the balloon was seen to be ablaze. The car, which was also on fire, detached itself from the burning silk and fell with ”fearful rapidity to the ground. Both of its occupants were found to be dead. Their bodies were horribly burned. It appears that the benzine used in the steering gear meter exploded, caus— ing the disaster. Threatened Mayor Hanson. Somersworth, N. H., June 14.—By reason of the throwing up of the con- tract on the water filter by contractors, Italian laborers have been left penni- less, and yesterday they threatened the life of Mayor Hanson if 15 per cent of the contract money held by the city was not paid them.

A large detail of police is guard- ing the residence of the mayor, and ad- ditional officers are on duty in the city to preserve order. Yellow Fever Feared. New York, June 14.—-Captain Davis Thompson and 17 of the crew of the lost British ship Burkhurst are still confined on Hoffman island and may be prisoners for days to come. These men reached here on the steamship Ad— vance, on which there was one death from yellow fever. Yesterday Otto Wer- nerson, a seaman, developed a high temperature and other symptoms of se- vere illness, which may be the precur- sor of yellow fever. Unfavorable to Bimetallism. Boston, June 14.—Hon. Patrick A. Col— lins, who has just relinquished the of- fice of consul general at London to General William M. Osborne, has ar- rived at Boston. Asked about the feel- ing in England in regard to bimetal- lism, he said he believed favorable sen- timent was never weaker there than at present, and in his opinion the commis- sion from the United States would ac— complish nothing.
