WILIIEL3I IS EMPEROR
AD will imoniv NO OPPOSITION to HIS STATESMANSHIP. Srnsntlonni Speech Tlmt Wan Intendrl mm WnrnlnK to NoMea of I'ruania. Who Differ with the Kulner. BERLIN'. Pert. 7. Kmperpr William made a ser..itional speech last evening at the etate banquet which followed the military r.r!in-uv-rs about South Altenburg, at which entertainment the King of Wurtemturg was the principal guest. Ills Imperial Majesty had previously struck from the lUtf guests the names of Count Von Mlrbach and Count Von Kanltz. a well as those of Generalj Klitzuls and Sanlltten. but the flames of the two latter were sub.suently restored upon the list. Kmporor William's act plainly marks his riiypieasure at the persons named, upon the agrarian question. This is confirmed by th fact that the Emperor has decorated Count Von Doenholt with the Order of the Red Eagle. Count VonDoenhoff, It will be remembered, la ' Hay last, was expelled by the Conservative Union because he voted for the RussoGerman commercial treaty In the Reichstag. Soon afterward Emperor William showed his approval of the Count's action, and he has now made his position clearer ty honoring Von Doenhoff with the Order of the Red Kaple. The guests at last nlghi's banquet were members oT the highest nobility, and included all the great civil and military officers of the province. After the Kmperor haI toasted the King of Wurtemburg and the latter had responded, his Imperial Majesty began a spech which caused the deepest impression. The exclusion of Count Von Mlrbach and Count Von Kanitz had in u measure prepared the way for the direct admonition which the Emperor, in emphatic tone, administered. But his words created no less effect. After a few words of. thanks for hl3 reception. Emperor William said: "When I was here four years ago. I emphasized the fact that in East Prussia, where the people are chiefly farmers, you must, Mfore all, preserve and maintain a capable peasantry, and that as such they would be a pillar to support my monarchy. Hence my constant endeavor, whenever the opportunity arises, to foster the welfare and economic improvement of East Prussia. The past four years of grevlous cares have weighed upon the farmer, and it apt-ears to mc that under this influence doubt has arisen in regard to any promises and as to whether I should be able to keep them. "Nay, I found myself compelled to observe, with a sore heart, that in the circles of the nobility standing near the throne my best intentions were misunderstood and to a certain extent combatted. Nay, more; word of opposition has been brought to my ears. Gentlemen, opposition of Prussian nobles to their King is a monstrosity. They ar Justified in forming an opposition only when they know the King to be at. their head. This is a lesson taught by the history of our house. How often have my ancestors had to set themselves against missrulded members of that class for the welfare of the whole community. The successor of him, who by his own right became sovereign duke in Trussla. will follow the same path as his great ancestor, and as once the first King of Prussia said: Ex me mea nata corona;' and as his great son established his ' authority as Rocher d lironze. so do I represent, like my Imperial frandslre, the kingdom by the grace of God. "Gentleman What oppresses you Is equally felt by m. for I am the largest landed proprietor in our State. I know very well that we are passing through hard times, and my dally thought is to help you. But you must support me in this, not by tho means employed by the professional opposition of the parties which you have so often rightly combatted. No, but by truthfully opening your hearts to your sovereign. My door is at all times open t" each one of my subjects, and I lend him readj- ear. I.t this henceforth fcr your course, and I shall regard as effaced all that has happened. In ord?r to make pure whether I have really fulfilled my promises. I ordered the compilation of the measures ndrnteii fVr thlc rrrkv!nr " Emperor William then enumerated . them and proceeded: "I shall continue my conutant endeavors to provide for this land. ' and the very next budget will aJfnrd fresh evidence of my paternal solicitude. Gentlemen, let us regard the pressure weighing upon us and the times through which we are passing In the light of the Christian profession. In which we have been educated, as a trial laid upon us by God. L?t us preserve our minds in quietude and endure with patience and firm resolution, hoping for better times, according to our Old maxim. 'Noblesse oblige.' "A stirring ceremony passed before our eyes on Tuesday. Before us stands the ?tatue of William I. the Imperial sword uplifted in his riant hand, the symbol 'of law and order.. It reminds us all of the arduous struggle 'with designs against the very foundations of our constitutional and Borlal life. Now. srentlmn, it Is to you I this day address myself. Forward; to tUht for religion, for morality and for order against the parties of revolution. As ivy winds itself around the oak. beautifies it with leaves and protects It when tempests rage, so doe the Prussian nobility close around my house. May it. and with it the whole of the nobility of 'the German nation, become a bright example to those sections of the populace which are still wavering. Iet us enter together upon this struggle. Onward, with God. and dishonor to him who forsakes the King. In the hope that Eastern Prussia will be the first province In lino in thi3 battle. I raise my glass and quaff it to the prosperity of Kastern Prussia and her Inhabitants. Three cheers for the province!" The Kreuz Zeitung.;, commenting upon the EmpTofs speech. ayit, that the oposltion of the Conservatives to the commercial treaties arose from their firm 'conviction of th pernicious character of the treaties, and that they. In view of their devotion ta the Kaiser, cannot h::t feel wounded by the Emperor's warning. Nevertheless, th paper adds, the knowledge that they acted conscientiously will prevent them from harboring resentment. The Freisslnexe Zeitung characterizes the Emperor's speech as a vote of conllder.ee In Chancellor Von Capri vi in his struggle with the Agrarians. The paper protests, however, at great length, against the special prominence given the nobility, and quotes from the Constitution the declaration that all Prussians are equal In the eyes of the law. Another Speeoli ly the Knlner. BERIJN. Sept. 7. Emperor William was present this evening at a military banquet given at Marienburg by ofTicers who took part in the military maneuvers. His Majesty, in proposing a toast to the Seventeenth Army Corps, said: "I hope the corps will continue in the highest condition of peaceful preparedness, keeping its weapons as keen t.nd well ground and bearing them as much like Germans as did tne knlchts of old who were once here In Marienburg." FISIIEIllII.X DROWNED. Fifteen Periliel During' u Storm In the Baltic Sen. IC)NDON. Sept. 7. A dispatch from Helsingfor, capital of Finland, tells the story of dreadful sufferings experienced a few days ago by men employed In the Baltic fisheries.

Fifteen fishermen were drowned. For three days the storm raged with unabated fury, and the men who escaped death were exposed to it3 full force. They were without food. At the end of the three days a passing vessel was sighted and In response to the fishermen's signals ran in under the le of th? Islet and sent boats to take off the shipwrecked men. In the meantime two of the fishermen had succumbed to their terrible experiences, and their bodies were left on the Island. The rescued were In a pitiable condition. Several of them were unconscious when found, and it Is feared that some of them will die. HUUtlOS IN LONDON. He Sny Mrnrnvun Wtintu n Strong Alliance with England. LONDON, S?pt. 7. General Barrios, the special Nlcaraguan envoy to Great Britain, presented his credentials at the Foreign OfTlce to-day.

General Barrios said that Nicaragua was very anxious to form a "strong alliance with England." although he. the special envoy, was in no hurry to commence the negotiations. A rumor has been circulated that General Barrios is postponing the negoiiations referred to in the hope that tfie Nicaragua h!p canal concessions will b? 9oM to a British syndicate, which stroke of business, the representative also says, would "strengthen the demand for England's alliance." nefageea to He Taken Back.

IIANLY, CIIEADLC AND OWEN HAVE A I1IG CROWD AT FRANKFORT. The Congremilonnl Candidate Show III Streneth on the IMnforin No Joint Debate In the Fifth. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. FRANKFORT, Ind.. Sept. 7. The Repub licans of Clinton county opened their campaign here to-day with the largest meeting since 1S7S. Th3 parade was composed of township delegations, old soldiers, citizens In carriages and a company of young Republicans and a half dozen bands. Speeches were made by J. B. Cheadle and Hon. J. F. Hardy and W. D. Owen to an audience of fully seven thousand people. Mr. Cheadle said that an error occurred In the summary of his Odon speech in stating the amount of sugar consumed last year In the world and In the United States, printed In last Tuesday's Journal, and that what he Intended to say, and what he thought he had said, was that the world consumed 6,500.000 tons, and that of this amount the United States consumed 1,900.001) tons. That he could not secure a copy of the paper to know what mistake was made for two days after it was printed, and that he then concluded to make the correction here today. His speech was well received, and was a contrast of the Republican and Democratic positions on the tariff and financial issues, and he made a plea for a soldiers' home. Mr. Owen was given three rousing cheers at the beginning of his speech. lie spoke for an hour In favor of American domination of manufactures on this continent and in Asia, and in defense of reciprocity. He showed how the McKinley law protected the products of the farmers, and said It would have required three million acres to produce the products Imported from Canada into the United States for five years preceding the McKinley law. He contrasted the protection afforded Southern farmers In the new law with the unjust discriminations against Northern farmers. His arraignment of Cleveland's treatment of veterans was loudly applauded. FRANK HANLY TALKS. Mr. Hanly was Introduced and made an able and effective speech. He was often applauded. Among other things he said he conceded that the masses who voted for Cleveland In 1892 were honest and sincere men; he should treat them kindly, as he had long since learned that It was cruel and unmanly to speak disparagingly of the dead. He reviewed at length the history of tariff legislation, and insist?d that under revenue tariff laws public and private enterprises had always been abandoned; that labor had been deprived of employment and Industries paralyzed. In support of this position he quoted from speeches made in the United States Senate by Benton and Webster, and read from messages to Congress writtef! by Presidents Polk, Budha nan and Cleveland. From papers published In 1837 he showed the extreme condition of agriculture by reports of sheriff's sales, showing that farm products sold uno!er the hammer every day at prices that are to U3 Incredible. He challenged Democratic orators to point out a time In the history' of this country under , protective tariff laws when ample revenues were not derived for the government, when the Industries of the country were not augmented, when manufacturers did not prosper, when workmsn did not find remunerative employment, and when the best and highest Interests of the whole country were rot subserved. He quoted President Cleveland's letters to Wilson und Catchlngs, and read from the speeches of HIIU Vilas, Wilson, Johnson and' others In condemnation of the new-tariff law. Holding a copy of the act In his hand he said: "This is the great unsigned, the first completed product of the Democratic party In thirty years. It became a law without the President's signature. It has no parent. It was conceived In a cellar ami born of Lnholy alliances. It first found Its way to the attention of Congress through the President's message, instead of coming to that body by the path provided bv the Con stitution, and in accordance with parliamentary procedure. Its birth was at the hour of midnight, a time when graveyards yawn and dead men's souls walk about. It dared not look the American people in the face in the light of day until It had been a law more than seven hours." Speaking of the value of home markets, he said: "With less than 5 per cent, of the population of the earth, we consume p) per cent, or air the sugar produced in the world. 30 per cent, of all of the coffee. S3 per cent, of all the wool, 40 per cent, of all the coal, &0 per. cent, of all the marble, G per cent, of all the rubber and 50 per cent, of all the tin, and our consumption of all the necessaries of life is In the same proportion. The v:lue of the freicht car rled-on the railroads of the United States In 1883 was $1 MKW.wrt.OCO, more than double the aggregate value of the Imports of ali the other nations of the world 1n 1S8. The American i-eople are not willing to surrender such a market, and that market -'at their very door, for the hazardous chance of capturing a foreign market worth le.-s than half as much In value and located three thousand miles away." AN ELOQUENT ENDING. Addressing himself to the veterans of the late war. he said: "You fought to a successful Issue the question of national sovereignty at Shiloh, at Stone River, at Chlckamauga, at Gettysburg, at Spottsylvanla, and in the battles of the Wilder nes3 you forged the bonds of an indissoluble Union. You taught treason that the power of 1 the federal government Is su preme.- Civilization everywhere watched each step of that great struggle with in tensified Intere3t. and when Appomattox was 'reached, when peace was restored. when the cloud and smoke of war had rolled away, and the nations of the world were permitted to look on what you had wrought, they found written letters resplendent among the stars and between the stripes of this old Hag, interwoven with every thread or the precious fabric. covering its every fold, these words: 'This is a nation, a union of States, one and indefeasible.' When Liberty saw that legend she clapped her hands, and, for the first time in the history of human affairs. dared be truly slad. Then, when y?u marched home, leaving behind you the dead companions of youi fame, you were met by a grateful people, wno repeated the promise made to you by Abraham Lin coln, that tne widows cr your aeaa com rades and their fatherless children should become the wards of this Nation, and that we would so care for you that the twilight hours of your lives should be made pleasant and comfortable. This administration has willfully failed and refused to keep that pledge, but I than God that the people of Mtintrv nre still snverelen Wo nun make and unmake administrations. To us loyalty Is not yet a reproach, and next ! November we will rebuke this adminis tration for its cruel and inhuman treatment of you." NAY, NAY, Mil. COOPER. Fifth District Chairman Sits Down on ii Democratic Scheme. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. COLUMBUS, Ind., Sept. 7. Some days ago -Columbus Duncan. Democratic chairman of the Fifth congressional district, forwarded to W. W. I.ambert, Republican chairman, a proposition for a series of joint debates in this district between Hon. Jesie Oyerstreet and Congressman George W. Cooper. The matter was at once taken up by the Republican district .committee and the following reply was made by Chairman Lambert: "On behalf of the district committee I desire to decline the offer of Aug. SO for a joint debate. The Republican party in the district Is not disposed to give Mr. Cooper the benefit of audiences which he might find difficult to procure upon his own account, nor is it inclined to assist Democratic leaders In their efforts to whip the people of their party back Into line. The Mate committee has waived these -objections in order to have one joint discussion in each district between the candidates for Secretary of State, and as these debates will probably be f jJly reported we believe that bofh sides of the argument will get to the people. "We believe that Mr. Cooper realizes that a majority of his constituents advocate his
retirement, and that he seeks to so arouse party spirit that hi candidacy may be protected by party zeal. The people of the district remember his promises made In 1S32, and are well informed of his, record since. And it Is not the purpose of our party to now aid in diverting attention by new declarations nor alienate our new friends by antagonisms so easily avoided." Don Wnufth at Tipton. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TIPTON, Ind., Sept. 7. Hon. Dan Waugh opened the campaign In this city last night in the Kleyla Theater to a croa-ded house. He showed that , the expenditures of the first year of the Cleveland administration were J43.421.0S1.09 greater than the last year
of the Harrison administration; that the executive department cost J152.001.01 more under Cleveland than it did under Harrison. The State Department cost $251,047.76 and the Judiciary Department J5o6, 751.12 more under one year of Cleveland than for the same time unaer Harrison, lie also snowea that John O. Carlisle estimates that the average consumption of sugar Is sixty-four pounds per year for each man, woman and child, and that the sugar tax will cost the citizens of Tipton Jt.lM a year and the peole of the county will pay sjo.txxj a year. .th facts and figures he proved that the present administration is the most extravagant, the most disastrous and has brought about more financial ruin than any other in the history of the country. The audience was very largely made up of la boring men. Itnllr at Trinity Springs. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TRINITY SPRINGS, Ind.. Sept. 7. The Republicans of Mlcheltree township, Mar tin county, held a rousing rally at this place yesterday. Twelve hundred voters of Martin "and Lawrence coirntie3 were present with their wives and children, who were entertained and instructed by a rous ing speech from Hon. A. M. Hardy," Republican candidate for Congress. Hon. P. R. Wadsworth, candidate for prosecuting attorney, and other local candidates also spoke. Colonel Hardy is making a most vigorous and able campaign. The Democ racy 13 on the run and the next Congressman from the Second district will be a Republican in the person of Colonel Hardy. HANI7 INDIANS PERISH BODIES OF TWEXTY-TI1HEG FOUND NEAR MILLE LACS. Darned in Forest Flren Thnt Swept Over Hinckley nnd, Other Minnesota. ToTvns Ilellef Work. POKEGAMA, Minn., Sept. 7. The bodies of jtwenty-three Chippewa indians-bucks, squaws' and papooses, lie upon the baked sands between here and Opstead, a small settlement on the shores of Mllle Lacs. They are scattered over ten miles of country land will in all probability prove food for buzzards and wolves, as the country arhere they died Is too far from civilization for burial ceremonies. Such Is the story brought by a courier, who for three days and nights has been forcing his way through the tangled skein of charred logs, trunks and roots. He passed through tne Mllle Lacs reservation and encountered many small blazes which are destroying what the fiery tornado left. The Indians left their reservation two months ago and built a hunting loage along one of .the forks of Hhadridge creek. Chief Waucouta was the "big chief" of the party, and he perished with his followers. The first body found by the courier was that of an infant barely a year old. Then came those of two squaws and five children. They had evidently turned west when the flames sxept throogh the forest. A ride of a mile brought him to a pile of ashes, which marked the site of the hunting camp. There had been one tepee, the shriveled rawhide thong3 marking the place where It stood. Around it were the ruins of half a dozen blrchwood shanties, and protruding from the ashes were the. fused barrels of rifles and shotguns. The courier counted twentythree charred bodies along a five-mile pathway. Fnrms Offered to Sufferers. DULUTH, Minn., S-pt. 7. Governor Nelson, a member of the State relief commission, and Mayor Eustls, of Minneapolis,' arrived last night and held a meeting with the local committeemen at (he Spauldlng House. The matter of permanently providing for the refugees was discussed. The owners of the burned mills will be asked If they will rebuild, and If not It Is designed to make an agricultural country of the burned territory. Two representatives . of the land department of the St. Paul & Duluth road were present, and offered to give farms free to all heads of families who cio not own their farms. All- heads of families will be sent down as soon as possible, and will be furnished with timber for temporary homes, their families In the meantime being provided for hire or wherever tney are. In order to ascertain what this and the providing necessaries during the winter will tost a thorough canvas will at once be made. The single men will be aided in getting work elsewhere, and it is hoped to have most of the lands adopted by worthy farmers. The commissioners left for the scene of the fire to-day. The relief headquarters shows 1,234 sufferers to be here, ninety-seven of which left here today. Appeal for Aid from Urule. WEST SUPERIOR, Wis., Sept. 17. L. Cr Fitzgerald, of Brule, has sent in an appeal for assistance for the settlers in that vicinity. He says they are starving as a result of forest fires, which have destroyed their crops; that they are fighting fires by day and night, and sleeping In holes In the ground lest they be surprised and burned too. Poor Commissioner Kennedy turned the matter over to the relief committee and provisions were sent on the first train. The town of Brule is surrounded by fires and the plucky homesteaders are making a fight to save their' houses. The MusserSauntry Lumber Company, It was learned to-day, Is a heavy loser by fire along Moose river. It lost several camps and logging equipments in addition to many thousands of dollars' worth of standing pine. Quenched by Rata.

THE C01ITE DE PARIS
NO HOPE FOR RECOVERY OF THE FAMOUS FRENCHMAN. Annonneement Made Yesterday thnt He NVn "Vot Expected to Live Until ThU Morninc-Hln Busy Life. LONDON, Sept. 7. Inquiries made at Stowe House this afternoon elicit the Information that the Comte de Paris Is not expected to live until to-morrow morning. The Empress of Russia has 'tendered the sympathy of herself and the Czar to the family of the Comte. The Count's Career. Louis Philippe Albert d'Orleans, Comte De Tarls. was born in Paris, Aug. 24, 1S3S. Ten years afterward his grandfather, Louis Philippe. King of the French, abdicated in his favor, but the Chamber of Deputies refused to acknowledge the boy as King. The Count of Paris, being the eldest hon cf Ferdinand, Duke of Orleans, Louis Philippe's oldest sen, was legally the head of the Orleans family. He wus educated by the celebrated Adolph Regnler. After the revolution which deprived Louis Philippe of the throne the Count of Parts and his brother, the Duke of Chartres, were by their mother taken to Germany, where they completed their education. After traveling extensively throughout Europe he took up his residence In England. When the war of secession broke out In this country, with his brother, the Duke De Chartres, and uncle, the Prince De Jolnville, he joined the Army of, the North in the capacity of captain on the etaff of Gen. McClellan, and figured in the campaign against Richmond, in the siege of Yorktown, in the battle of Williamsburg, Fair Oaks and In 'his retreat on the James river. For reasons that It would b too long and purposeless to investigate he left the service in lb: and retired to tnianu, where he remained at the time when other members of his family were fighting in behalf of their country in the ever memorable campaign of 170-71. After the downfall of the empire, when the French army -was "undergoing continuous defeat by the forces, of Germany, the Comte and his brother offered tneir services in whatever place they might be assigned, but the legislative assc-rably refused to employ them. The Comte professed his adherence to the republic In the following words: "France wishes to make a new experiment; It does not become us to hinder her." In 1871 he was admitted a member of the Assembly at Versailles. He made a formal resignation of the claims of his family to the throne of France In 1873, when on a visit to the Comte De Chambord. the Bourbon claimant. By his will, however, the Comte Dm Chambrd instructed the monarchists of France to recognize the Comte De Paris as heir to the crown. He was married in 1SG7 to his cousin. Marie Isabel, daughter of the Due De Montpensler, by whom he had a son, the Due d'Orleans. and a daughter, who, as already stated, was married a short time ago to the Crown Prince of Portugal. Hla son, the Due d'Orleans, is said to grve promise of great genius. The family life of the pretender was very happy. They occupied a magnificent hotel in the Faubourg St. Germain, where their adherents and admirers formefl about them a miniature court which well sustained the dignity and elegance which ever characterized the Bourbons. The Count's Interest In the laboring classes has le-d to frequent journeys hrough the manufacturing districts of England, where he thoroughly acquainted himself with the details ot the workmen's lives and habits, and made himself familiar with the practical application of theories for mitigating the tyranny of capital over labor. ... The Comte wrote a history of our civil war, in eight volumes. Some of his old comrades addressed him recently. Inviting him. in the event of his expulsion from France, to make the United States his home. A cordial reply was received by Gen. Daniel Butteriield, in which the Comte declined to visit America at that time, but a visit, he added, would fill his best wishes. ... About the time Boulanger began to agitate French politics the republic grew suspicious of what was going on at the residence of the Comte De Paris, who was maintaining a court of regal splendor. Rumored conspiracies against the government became frequent, and a bill to expel all princes from France was presented in the Chamber of Deputies, but failed to pas. However, greater grounds of complaint against the Comte De Paris grew out of an Incident which happened at the fete given by him at the time of the departure of his daughter, the Princess Amelie, for Lisbon, where she was married to the Crown Prince of Portugal. To this fete were Invited all the embassadors accredited to Paris, the Comte acting in this matter as If he were a reigning sovereign instead of a simple citizen. The embassadors refused to attend the reception, at which 3.000 guests were entertained. Besides his connection by marriage with the royal family of Portugal, the Comte formed one With the reigning house of Denmark. It was charged against him, moreover, that he organized societies for advancing the interests of the French monarchists, while nominally organizing committees on agriculture In various departments. With all this, a second attemot to expel the princes from France was more successful, the bill passing June 22, 1SS6. and Comte De Paris was thenceforth an exile. Besides his great work already mentioned on our civil war, the Comte wrote on miscellaneous subjtrcts, including a work on English trfide unions, which has been translated into various languages.
