Service, Ow-

Report That a f5

for
of
many. ,

.London, Jan. 10.-—The Far Eastern
crisis still overshadous all,public ques-
tions. throughoutiEurope. A rumor is
current that England is about to send
out another flying squadron, stronger

‘ even than the One eq‘uipped' at a few-

days’ notice just two years ago for the
Kaiser's contemplationyThis suggests

' sufficient reason for imperial anxiety

at Berlin. , -
The rumor is denied at the Admiral-
ty Office, of course. > ' '
When the Germans seized Kiao-Chou
,Ba‘y, England protested, as is already
known, but it was not ,know until to-

. day that‘the German Government gave

certain assurances, 'which ordinary
persons would call extremely vague,
but which, in the language of diploma-
cy, vould be described as satisfactory.
It now transpires that these assur-
anc’s by no‘ means "square with the
tert..s of the bargain secured by Ger-
m: .iy, and a fresh protest therefore
wil have to be made in London. It
VVLS doubtless for the purpose of hear-
ing Lord Salisbury's new note to Ger-
many and of discussing the scheme for
guaranteeing the new Chinese loan
that the Ministers met to-day.

It is likely that the German Foreign
Office has armed itself with precedents
for its “lease of sovereignty” which
forms the basis of the Chinese arrange-
ment, but so far as ascertained Lord
Salisbury has been unable to,find one,
and this will'stiffen his back, for he is
essentially orthodox in diplomatic
methods. . ‘

The Foreign Office experts are agreed

. that the German lease is elastic enough

to enable Germany to exploit the whole
of the densely—populated Shang-Tung
Peninsula, and German exploitation
means the keeping of everybody else
but. To this England will never agree.
That. is why preparations have been
made for calling out the naval reserve.

It is nearly a fortnight since the an-
nouncement of such preparations was
made, and itremains uncontradicted
for the reason that it was virtually
made at the request of the Govern—
ment. itself.

Your correspondent is now enabled
topomplement the original statement
by.»the announcement that mobilization

. plans have been sent to the naval com-

manders at Chatham, Sheerness,
Portsmouth ‘and Devonport. Doubtless
the .Britishfita’tions abroad ,have been
similarly instructed, but your corre-
spondent’s informant can answer only
for the home stations.

Of all the curious rumors which have
been current the past week in con-
nection with the Chinese question the
queerest is surely one which declares
that the tiny squadron commanded by
Prince Henry of Prussia, now en route
'thhina, is being secretly followed all
through its long voyage by three Brit-
ish warships. This rumor has .not
found its way to the newspapers, but
it has taken possession of the West
End social, naval and military clubs.
The suggestion, of course, is that the
position is .so critical that before
Prince Henry gets to China there will
be war between England and Ger-
many, in which event the Deutschland
and Gefion, Prince Henry’s ships, will
be forthwith gobbled up by the mys-
terious following warships.

 

SECOND APPEAL FOR CUBANS. ~

A Disgusting Habit 'Alto-
gather Too Familiar.
How to stop It.

 

f It may be a habit. ,,

It may be catarrh.

But catarrh is dangerous.

The habit is disgusting.

Catarrh causes headaches, inflamma-
tion of the eyes, deafness and consump-
tion.‘ . * - ‘ .

The habit causes humiliation.

Catarrh and habit should be cured.

That they can be cured and have
been cured, and in Norwalk, too, the
following is proof:

Mr. H. L. VVoodworth, of 1 Burbank
street, South. Norwalk, says: "I have
been troubled with catarrh ,for some
time; my head and‘nose seemed .pretty
well stuffed up, and the quantities of
matter that ran into my throat at night
would cause me to' hawk, spit and‘often
gag in the morning, before I cOuld clear
my throat.
tam-h Cure at Plaisted’s drug store,and
already these symptoms are very much
better. My throat is finely free from
all matter in the morning, and my
whole head feels much clearer.”

By the use of California Catarrh Cure
perfect cleanliness of the‘ nasal passages
is‘se'cured, and the peculiar properties
of the herbs used in its production. not.
only cleanse the mucous membrane of
all puriform matter, soothing and al-
laying all inflammation, but also. effec-
tually destroy all forms of fungus which
may grow in the throat and nasal pas-
sages. . '

It. has cured cases of almost total

deafness, restored the ability to detect.

odors to persons who had almost for-
gotten what an odor was,,and has cured
cases that surely would have resulted
in total blindness. Let no one who
has suffered any of the evils of catarrh,
hesitate to secure a bottle of California
Cat-arrh Cure, with full faith that he
will obtain relief and cure.

California Catarrh Cure is sold by all
dealers; 50 cents, three times as much
one dollar.

 

BRYAN ATTACKS SECRETARY CAGE.

the Silver Situation at aChi-
cogo Banquet.

Discusses

Chicago, Jan. 10.—William Jennings
Bryan attended the Jackson Day ban-
quet, given under the auspices of the
W'illiam J. Bryan Club, at the Tre—
mont Saturday night, and made the
principal address. Among the other
speakers were Samuel E. Morse, editor
of the Indianapolis Sentinel; Mayor
Taggart, of Indianapolis; Congressman
Cobb, of Georgia; Congressman Lewis,
of Washington, and D. J. Campau,
Democratic National Committeeman
from Michigan.

In the course of his address at the
club banquet Mr. Bryan said:

“It seems that every generation pre-
sents a combat between the producers
of wealth and the money changers.
The latter, conducting their campaign
in secrecy, fasten themselves upon the
body politic, and prey upon industry
until their hold is broken by an awak—
ened and indignant public.

“The present Secretary of the Treas-
ury, Mr. Gage, is eminently fitted to
be .the instrument of the financiers in
their effort to complete the scheme
commenced twenty-four years ago and
continued without interruption. '

“He possesses a" sublime faith in the
superiority of money over man and a
supreme contempt for the rights, the
interest and the opinions of the people
at large. -

“He knows that in the campaign of
1896 the party composed of bolting
Democrats was the only party which
dared to declare the "gold standard a
blessing.

“He knows that at the polls 99 per
cent. of the voters registered their op-n
position to a single gold standard, dif-
fering only as to the means of_ secur-
ing bimetallism. He knows that the
President sent a commission to Europe
to beg other nations tohelp us get rid
of the gold standard.

“He knows that the maintenance of

the gold stan‘d'ard'means unmerited ad-

vantage to the money owning and the
bondholding classes and undeserved
punishment to the vast majority of the
people of this country and of the civil-
ized world. ‘

“Yet in spite of'his knowledge of all
these facts heis deliberately planning
to iasten the gold standard perma-
nently upon the people of the United
States. ' .

“Mr. Gage knows these facts, and yet
he is seeking to organize a money'
trust more dangerous not only to the
industries, but to the liberties of the
people, than all the other trusts com-
bined. Under such circumstances the
memory of the hero of New Orleans
ought to be invoked in every State,
county and hamlet to arouse .the people
to a sense of their danger.”

He referred to the reductions of
wages of cotton operatives i New
England, and said: '

“Is this the result which they pro-
claimed would follow ‘the opening of
the mills instead of the mints?’ If
our enemies .boast that they have bur-
ied bimetallism we point to these wage
reductions as the weeping willows
which have 'sprung up about its tem-
porary tomb.. Why is net some court
asked to enjoin the employers from
uniting together to reduce wages?”

“Since the last celebration of Jack-
son's Day’,” he said, in closing, “thou-
sands of political prodigals have re-
turned to the old home, and thousands
more are growing weary of the husks.
The reception of those who have re-

turned has depended upon the spirit

1):: Thomas, W. Evans,’the American ,

 
 

.cheerrmarked'lts close, .. v p . ,

which animated the prodigals.

“Those who have come back ac-.
knowledging the binding force of the
Chicago platform and willing to work
harmoniously side by side with the
brethren‘who went not astray, have
been taken into full fellowship and
their wanderings forgIVen. But those
who have swaggered back, boasting ,of
their intention to remodel” the house
and -revolutionize the method, have

'found neither the fatted calf nor the
a

.banquet' hall. , ’

“Unless Pall political omens fail, the. '

twentieth century will open with the.
money of the Constitution restored and
the motto, quual ‘rights to all and spe-
cial privileges to‘none,’ the controlling
principle in, all, departments of the
Government. Then will all our people
sing 2.. new song of apnation redeemed."

Interrupted by‘applauSe, and a hearty”
