Compact Between the Pope and the Kaiser to Suppress Enemies to Society. rCopyrUnt, 13S1. by the United Press. J London', Jan. 10. The Kaiser has secured fen ully in Pope Leo XIII in hit campaign gainst the Socialists. It is eaid that after many communications, an understanding lias been arrived at between the Emperor nd the Vatican to make common cause in Hi suppression, of coarse by persuasive methods, of the declared adveraary of established institutions, and instructions have been given to the Catholic clergy in Germany to influence their flocks against the socialist agitation. On the part of the German government the attitude, heretofore distant and sometimes hostile, 'which Bismarck maintained toward the church, is abandoned, and amends are to be made lor the past, so far as liberality in the fatlire can amend. An important movement in this connection, first allnded to in these dispatches, is the international conference proposed by Germany for the suppression of anarchism and revolutionary socialism, and the extradition of persons accused of political crimes. Austria has already agreed to the conference, and Italy and England have the subject under consideration. In due time the proposition will be submitted to other European Cabinets. The conference is to be held in Switzerland, with the object of brintnnir pressure to bear on that little republic, heretofore an asylum for political refugees from all parts of the continent. The consent of England to any arrangement is looked upon as hopeless, bo far as political extradition is concerned. The Socialists, notwithstanding the antagonism of the government, are actively poshing their propaganda now among the agricultural classes, to whom they are giving special attention. As the strength of the Conservatives is chiefly in the rural districts, this new turn of the Socialists is giving rise to some anxiety. Although the government haa indicated that the law expelling the Jesuits is not to he repealed, petitions are still being circulated throughout Germany against such repeal, and are receiving numerous si gnat urea.

The manufacture of Koch's lymph is not going to be & scheme of charity with the Prussian government, although such has been the common impression. The Prussian treasury intends to make a very handsome revenue out of the secret, and its profits may rival, after a time, those of the famous patent medicine venders of Great Britain and America. The pretense that the object of keeping the formula secret is to maintain the purity of . the lymph has been at last exploded by tie admission that the state expects to net a yearly profit of four million marks out of the business, and or this vi. Koch is to receive a sum not exceeding one million marks and his assistants 250,000 marks each. The lucky assistants are Professor Pfuhl and Dr. Libbertz. The financial arrangements are subject to the approval of the Prussian Diet, but this wilL no doubt.be accorded. Dr. Koch has just returned from a fortnight's holiday in the Hartz mountains, lie is in excellent health and spirits, and haa recovered from the slight depression caused by overwork. To an .English doctor who Deseed him. in the interests of humanity. to publish the details of his discovery, be said that the discovery was his own and he could do what he pleased with it: that he bad confided it to the state and would abide by the decision of the state. A singular case is reported from Luzann. Switzerland, of a Frenchman sick with tuberculosis, who was advised to try the Koch remedy. He replied: "Nothing Prussian; nothing Prussian," apparently preferring death to the nse of a German core, - Hostile Criticisms of the Lymph. Copyright, 1891, by the New York Associated Press.) Br.Ri.ix, Jan. 10. Under the influence of th unfavorable opinion of Professor Virchow and other prominent physicians regarding the Koch remedy, the government has come to a pause over the proposed hill making the lymph the property of the state. Minister Von Gossler,who has the supervision of medical affairs, the bill ready and intends to intrvdnce it in the Landtag Monday, but has postponed its introduction. This action has led to rumors that the aiinisters desire to reconsider the arrangement made between Dr. Von Gos&ler &nd Prof. Koch. The Klein Journal affirms that It is doubtful If the Ministry will now adhere to the agreement. Tne Koch circle of the contrary state that the relations between Prof. Koch and Minister Von Gos&ler are unchanged, and that the Introduction of the bill la delayed because the apparatus for the state production of the lymph is still incomplete, a numiier or tne natchinx ovens not being ready. Professor Koch found necessary this week some hundred additional breeding chambers for the bacteria preparation, which, including the growth of the bacilli.' takes much time. roloi)ffed watchinj? and constant testing belore Professor Koch or his assistants will pronounce the lymph reliable. l)r.

Copyright, 1831, by the TJ nited Press. London, Jan. 10. The feudal element in Germany is at length making itself heard in protest against the leveling policy of the Kaiser. The Grand Duke of MecklinburgSchwerin, Friedrich Franz III, is the poten tate that has undertaken to bell the cat by hurling dehance in behalf of himself and his fellows in the petty sovereignties of Germany at the imperial autocrat. The Grand Duke is himself an autocrat m his little but by no means contemptible domain. lie governs his duchy to please himself and his legislature is composed cbieily of nobles and well-to-do persons. He views with alnrm the plans of tho Emperor to abolish feudalism and substitute local selfgovernment throughout Prussia, and e is also inclined by origin and marriage rather to Russia than to Austria. Tracing back his family to the Co of Charlemagne, and calling himself Tilsc3 cf tha Wends," or German slaves,.
be is one of the proudest rulers in Europe, and he has regarded with ill-concealed distrust both the self-assumption and the reformatory tendencies of his imperial suzerain. His invitation to Bismarck to takn charge of the allairs of the grand duchy is generally construed as a rebuke to the Emperor, and Bismarck's declination hasnot lessened the force of the rebuke in the public estimation. Th) Grand Duke ha now assumed the leadership of what may be called a pro-Russian and reactionary party in the German empire, and there is no doubt that he has many sympathizers. DUTY OF LIBERALS.
Gladstone Points Oat the Coarse the Party Slnst Take in legislative Matter. London, Jan. NX Mr. Gladstone has written a letter to Mr. Furniss, the Liberal candidate for Hartlepool, who succeeded the late Mr. Thomas Richardson. Mr. Gladstone says: "The Irish parliamentary party has vindicated itself by putting an end to the leadership of Mr. Parnell. and has left us prepared to pursue, as heretofore, onr duty in denouncing unequal laws and the odious system of coercion adopted by the government as a permanent law. The Liberal gains of eeats in the House of Commons daring the last four years mean much more than mere success. They mean that the party has declared that a union has for the first time been effected between the British and Irish; and shows the people aim to close the controversy our opponents seek to indefinitely prolong at the cost of the national reputation and of imperial treasure and amid inextinguishable dis cord. The people of Ireland have put their trust in the people of Great Britain to de liver them from had laws, made worse by a harsh, insulting administration. It rests on each constituency, as the occasion oners, for us to show our sister nation that her confidence is not reposed in vain. The views of the Liberals on general legisla tion were expressed at a recent meeting of the federation. They show that the party long for the time when the Irish question will be settled, and when fuller opportunity will be afforded to other questions. Still the time will come and we ought to supply a sample of our practical intentions by a bill clearing away obstacles hindering qualified voters from coming to register and limiting on the register every single citizen to a single vote." GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Italian Army Officers Mangled by the Fall of the Roof or a Riding-School. Rome, Jan. 10. A dispatch from Reggio, the capital of Reggio nell Emilia, a fortified city of north Italy, about fourteen miles from Sedan, brings news of a terrible disaster. It appears that while a number of the officers of the garrison were being exercised in the military riding-school this morning the roof of the riding-school suddenly crashed in, hurling huge beams of wood and. showers of tiles into the arena. When the troops, who were promptly called to the scene of the dis aster, succeeded in removing tne debris, it was found that two omcers were killed. six were seriously injured, and ten others were slightly wounded. The accident is supposed to have been caused by the fact that the roof had been subjected to great strain through the recent severe snow-storms, when large masses of snow were allowed, to accumulate over the rid ing-school.

PALMER NOT TpEIR CHOICE
Three Farmer Members of the Illinois Legislature Want a Fiat Money Man. They Have an Idea They Can Elect a Candidate of Their Own to the Senate Nebraska Situation Unchanged In Montana. SpnrxGEiELD. I1L, Jan. 10. The standing of the three farmer members of the House of the Genoral Assembly in the coming senatorial tight is no longer one of uncertainty. While it is not yet known who their candidate will be it is certain that it will not be John M. Palmer. Representative Cockrell. in an interview this evening, said that under no circumstances would he or bis colleagues support Palmer. They had no objection to Palmer except that he stands on the old Democratio doctrine that the government can make nothing legal tender but gold and silver. "We say," added Cockrell, "that gold and silver, as a circulating medium for the develop ment of onr country, are inadequate. What we desire is' a per capita circulation, and we want an. American system of li nance. We have come to the conclusion that money is neither silver, nor gold, nor any other material. If Palmer was elected he would spend his six years in Washington lighting tariff measures, while the money trust is squeezing our values and profits into their incomes and robbing us all of onr homes. We will elect our man or force the Republican or Democratic party to adopt our policy. If the Democrats are able to get a Republican vote and elect a Senator without the three farmers that will simply be a Republican funeral." Representative Tanbeneck indorsed Mr. Cockrell' s views. He said several men had been discussed as candidates and they were neither Palmer, Lindley, Farwell nor Oglesby. It has been rumored David Hunter will be their candidate. McGrath.

Turner, has been received by Frank Mo(irath. president of the Farmers' Alliance and Industrial Union, containing Infamous suggestions and oilers for the betrayal of a most sacred trust ana connaenee, tnererore, no it Resolved, That we regard the anair solely as another characteristic attempt on the part of the Republican politicians in Topeka and Washington to prove that moral laws have no place in politics, and a desire on their part to thwart the will of the people by any means, however base and corrupt; that we regard it as only another reason for standing firmly together In earnest. untiring and zealous devotion to our cause; that we deprecate and condemn all efforts or disposition to Introduce or foment personal antagonism or private pique or jealousy In our party, hold ing the common cause higher, dearer and more sacred than individual Interest. Legislative Difficulties in Montana. Helena, Mont.4, Jan. 10. Steps have been taken looking to the ending of the deadlock in the Montana Legislature. In the Republican House a resolution was adopted to appoint a committee of five to formulate and report on a plan of settlement of the existing difficulties. The action was taken in response to the expressed wish of the Republican caucus. .A. M. Holter, chair man of the committee, and other members who favor any plan that will bring the two houses together, met and talked the matter over. While no plan was decided on, it is believed one will be ready by Monday, to which time the Senate and both houses have adjourned. The plan talked of is to have twenty-five members from each Louse whose election is undisputed meet with' the Democratio Speaker, leaving out each set of Silver ltow contestants, who will either resign or allow their claims for seats to be decided on the last day of the session, in the meantime none of them participating in the proceed ings. In such -case the the minor offices would be divided between the two parties. The plan meets with general approval, ex cept on the part of one or two of the Silver Uow contestants.

Pat on the Stand in the Trial of William Eozell lie Gives Testimony Fatal to llis Alleged Companions in Crime. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Nkw Castle, Ind., Jan. 10. A big sensation was created in the Rozell murder trial to-day, when the defense put John P. Smith, one of the accused parties, on the stand.

Smith eaid he would nave nothing to do with it. Rozell then went into the back room of the store and beckoned for Smith to follow, which be did. Rozell gave him two or three drinks of whisky, and the two went to Henry Rozell's shop, where they had a short conversation, and then returned.

An Evening at the White House When Whisky Flowed Freely Voorheea Sat Down On. Chicago News. "During President Cleveland's administration," remarked a W ji, corn politician not long ago, "1 was a ni' oberof the lower house of Congress and .the President evinced a partiality for me, presumably because when he asked for information or for an opinion I told him the truth. Cleveland was a curious man: he was headstrong to a degree, and he hated sycophancy and untruthfulness. The only way to get along with him was to speak right out and to tote fair and square. Well, we'd been having a monkey-aud-parrot time in the matter of appointments; our constituents were clamoring and the candidates were abusing us because nothing was being done toward tilling the oflices. But, bless your soul, what could be done so long as the President stood like a rock in the way of reaching the promised land! Threats, pleadings, coaxings, expostulationsall were in vain; the President was not to be moved; he was to be held responsible for the appointments and he did not intend to make any misstep. So there was nothing for us to do b:it to disguise our discomfiture as best we could and bide our time. "One night I was chatting in the lobby of Willard's Hotel when a messenger from the White House brought me word that the President wanted me to come and see him. At last,' thought I to myself, 4at last 1 am to get what I've been atter; he is going to arrange about the appointments I have been seeking.' Of course I indulged in no unseemly delays; I just slipoed into my overcoat as fast as ever I could and hustled up to the White House. I found the President in the most felicitous mood imaginable; never had supposed he could be so allable. " 'Come right up to my room said he, cordially. 1 want to have a nice long visit with you, and I have given orders that we must not be interrupted.' "That was good news, 1 can assure you. It assured me that there was balm in Gilead; that the good time, so long on the way, was at hand. So the President and I went up to that secluded room, and . the first thing he did was to produce a quart bottle of line old whisky and two glasses. We smiled,' and 'smiled' again, and kept on 'smiling,' the President meanwhile keeping up a constant firo of stories and jokes. Well, sir, there we two men sat for four hours, and not a word about appointments, or politics, or anything of the kind. iio, hit. not a blessed word was said except in the way of a story, or joke, or a fish yarn, or an experience. 1 had it in my heart several times to broach business, but the old man seemed to read my intention in my eyes, for he beaded me oil every time either with that bottle of fine old whisky or with the recital of some joke that just then occurred to him. "You see, he just was hungry for a good, old-fashioned 'set-down;' he was tired out with routine work, and he had made up his mind to a quiet evening's visit with one who wouldn't pester him with importunities. I understood the situation exactly, and I sympathized with the man and respected him for it. although I'll confess to disappointment that there wasn't a little sprinkling of business through it all.

This candidate bad a mighty salty record, and Cleveland knew it, although he didn't card to say much about it. Well, one day Voorhees and a lot of his Hoosier allies marched up to the White House to make a linal assault upon the executive: the battle had been carefnlly.adroitly, brilliantly planned. First letters, telegrams, affidavits and recommendations were displayed, then a number of speeches were made by various minor members of the party, and last of all Voorhees arose and delivered himself of one of his splendid orations an oration setting forth most eloquently the noble qualilications of his candidate, the notable services he had always contributed generously and cheerfully to the party. e?x. When he sat down an awful hush fell jpon the assem blage; the other Hoosiers ".ooked at one another as much as to say. 'Dan has done it his eloquence is irresistible!" "Cleveland had sat through it all unmoved; he had listened without givinsr any sign cither of approval or of dissent. Ho had heard everything. "'Senator Voorheea,' said Cleveland, presently, I can understand now why yoa enjoy 60 great a reputation as a jury lawyer, but' aud here he brought his list down upon the table before him 'I'm it I will appoint yourman!' "He didn't appoint him, either." A New Indian Policy. Philadelphia Record (Dem.) President Harrison's resolution to put the threatened Sioux and Cheyenne Indian agencies under control of army officers "pending hostilities" does him much credit. This sudden change of policy amounts to an acknowledgment that to the policy hitherto pursued toward the Indians is largely due the lamentable condition of affairs that exists in the Dakota reservations. It would, of course, be unjust to hold the present administration responsible for tho recent tragio events in Dakota, since the system through which "the wards of the Nation" have been managed is almost as old as the government itself.

He knows this as well as anybody. But it appears that the untaxed American article is unsuited to the delicate and sensitive texture of Mr. Simpson's feet. Ho will wear none but foreign socks in any event, and will dispense even with them until the tax is taken oil.
