CArSKI) A SENSATION

Kever lias a Report of a Similar (.'liar.u'ter (.'routed Such a Turmoil In Cincinnati.

Theodore l.raemor lias Turivd Over J1 is J'Topcrty I't-ndiii"- An IniMimuiou.

Cincinnati, .Tan. 23.—Sensational reports have been published hero of an alleged shortage in the bools of Theodore Braemer, who resigned last Thursday as secretary and treasurer of the J. (c F. Schroth Packing company of this city. The story as first published estimated a shortage of lrom $160,000 to $-100,000, extending over a period of 20 years, and claimed that Mr. Braeiwr had turneu over all his property and chattels in trust pending an examinauon of the hooka by experts. Braemer denies that there •was any defalcation, but admitted that he has turned $72,000 in personal property over to Harlan Cleveland, his attorney, and Jos. W. O'Hara, attorney for the J. &. F. Schroth company. While Braemer talked freely about the ease, the Schrollis refused to say anything, and the attorneys were also reticent.

Braemer is 45 years of age and has Vbeen with the Scliroths 27 years, most of the time receiving $25 per week as bookkeeper and in recent years twice that much as secretary and treasurer. The firm did a business of about $1,000,000 a year, which was collected by Braemer.

AVlien John Schroth died over a year tigo. Lieutenant Governor Carl Nippert became the attornev of his heirs, •who inRtitnted an investigation of the ••company, which finally culminated in ti meeting of all interested .parties last

Sunday, at which Braemer resigned and from which yesterday's sensational reports emanated. Lieutenant Governor Nippert. attorney for the heirs of John Schroth. is engaged with the legislature at Columbus, while Harlan Cleveland/ attorney for Braemer and John W. O'Hara, attorney for the company, also trustees, are engaged with the experts in examining the hooks. The accountants insist that they cannot complete their work for two or three weeks and counsel say that no reliable statement can be made until that time. The books were transferred from the packing house to the I Hammond building in this city yesterday for the convenience of the expert accountants and the attorneys engaged in the investigation. No reports of similar character ever created such a sensation in this city, as I\lr. Braemer always lias been regarded as a man of the highest business and social standing. He owns one of the finest residences in the city and it is furnished with all that art could supply. In all of the sensational reports that have been published no reference is made to him as a last man or any bad habits, such as are usually coupled with such sensations. The attorneys and other interested parties will give no assurance that the report of the experts on the examination of the book's will be made public when completed, as they state that every possible difference has already been adjusted satisfactorily by the property that. Braemer has turned over in trust. All the interested parties .state that they expected after the meeting last Sunday at which Braemer resigned, that all differences would be settled without the matter ever becoming public.

Democratic Connressman Expresses Opinion of His Associates. ashington, Jan. 23.—Some of the Old partisan fire was injected into the proceedings of the house yesterday When the item in the urgent deficiency bill appropriating $500,000 for a military post at Manila, which the Democrats have been using as a text foi speeches in opposition to the Philip pine policy of the administration foi the last three days was reached. Mr Cannon, in charge of the bill, confessed that-the appropriation was sub-' ject to a point of order and it went out. In lieu thereof he offered an amendment to appropriate the same sum for "shelter and protection of the officers and enlisted men of the army on duty in (he Philippines." This the cliair held to be in order and it at once became the subject of a very spirited debate, in which Mr. Richardson, the minority leader, Mr. Williams of Mississippi and Mr. Dearmond of Missouri, were pitted against the chairman of the "appropriations committee. Partisan applause rang out. on each side to cheer on the respective champions and there seemed to be a solid line-up on each side of the political aisle. But when the vote came to be taken Mr. Cummings. a New York Democrat, voted with the Republicansturning angrily on his political brethren as he did so and with clinched fist: in their faces, crying out that he hoped he might be paralyzed when he refused to vote to protect an American soldier. The vote on the adoption of the amendment stood: Ayes 127, nays 100. Before the general debate closed Mr. Watson paid a beautiful tribute to the late President McKinley.

Berlin, Jan. 23.—During the debate on the estimates of the chancellor's department in the reiclvstag yesterday, tno imperial chancellor, Count Von Buelow, referred to the pleasant relations between Germany and the United States, and to the approaching visit of Prince Henry of Prussia, ihe chancellor found his opportunity in the remarks of Dr. Barth, leader of the Freisinnige party, who, in discussing the budget said: "I want to touch upon the political relations between Germany and the United States, which are traditionally friendly in character. One hindrance to the promotion of this friendship is the protectionism now prevailing in Germany. It is pleasant, on the other hand, to see that the projected visit of a German prince to the United States has disclosed the existence of a large fund of good will and cordiality among the American peopl-e for Germany. We recognize in the Union not merely a great and economically effective community, but we know that the achievements of the United States in other fiejds, such as civilization and culture, are very important. The cultivation of the friendship of the two countries is a thing to be grateful for."

Replying to Dr. Barth Count Yon Buelow said: "I express my thanks to Dr. Barth for the words and manner in which he has spoken of our relations with the United States, I still must ask him not to over-estimate the difficulties from the way in which we formulate our tariff policy. "I an only repeat what I said three years ago in the reiclistag, and I believe the views I then set forth in detail Will today meet with the coneurence of the house —namely, that we are filled with an earnest desire to maintain, on the bases of perfect reciprocity and mutual appreciation, the traditional good relations which have always existed between ourselves and the United States. The voyage af Prince Henry to America is an expression of these good relations, and I am convinced his reception will1 be in accord with the friendly feelings the two great nations have for one another."

The chancellor's statement was met with prolonged cheers from all parts of the house.

lJiissia's Friendly Attumie. St. Petersburg, Jan. 23.—The following statement from the Russian ''foreign office regarding the announcement made in the British house of commons Monday concerning negotiations between the, powers before and after the outbreak of the SpanishAmerican war, and the assertions made by a British foreign office official on the same subject has been given out: "Russia has always been and now is extremely desirous of maintain ing amicable relations with the United Staves. Russia never had any intention of participating in any collective steps in the Spanish-American dispute which did not directly concern her. Nor did Russia receive.any proposition having such action in view. Indeed, we received no information regarding Austria's alleged initiative or about an atte.rp' on Hie part of any of the powers to interfere in the interest ot Spain." V'W
