Motes UnoaajLcat Uli Own Colonial Interests, i-hould II Cbano to Hare Such, Slight be Jeopardized la Similar Marnier i.mpfror WUUam'a Visit to Bismarck nan Tor the Purposo of Getting the Old Sian'n Advice on How to Ueal wlUi tbe SocIalUU-EmpIre'a Anniversary. (Copyrighted 1S9G by Associated Press.) Berlin, Deo. 2L President Cleveland's message to congress on theboun-dary dispute between Great Britain and Venezuela dropped Ilka a.

thunder bolt upon Germany, and immediately overshadowed all questions of domestic politics and the Armenian Imbroglio. The almost general commendation of the action of President Cleveland upon the part of the German press Is due less to love for England than -to the cjnvlotlon that the Interests of Germany are also threatened. In politl-. -1 and even la government circles, t.e attftude of the marquis of Salisbury is receiving unusually unanimous approval, evidently -with the hope of impressing Americans wrth the belief that Germany Is backing England up in this dispute, and to thus Induce President Cleveland to abandon the position he has taken before serious trouble supervenes. Xobody, however, now expects that hostilities between the two countries will break out, and the financial aspect of the affair Is taken much more seriously here.

If the dispute between Great Britain and the United States were to grow acute, it is thought here tha-t the former country wiuld endeavor to obtain a pronouncement upon the part of tfhe European governments against President Cleveland's interpretation of the Monroe doctrine, for the success of Air Cleveland, it is thought, would have grave consequences in the future relations between European powers and the turbulent South American states. The latest news from America, however Is regarded as promising the refusal of the business men to endorse President Cleveland's attitude, and all eyes are directed towards the developments of the financial crisis. The reidhstag having adjourned until January 9. no public expression of official opinion is possible just now. BiBPBROR'S BISMARCK VISIT.

Xext to President Cleveland, Emperor illiam's visit to Prince Bismarck at Fried rich sruhe has been the topic of the week. Instead of being, as at first Intimated, purely a visit of courtesy, his majesty's call upon the ex-chancellor appears to have been of prime political importance, for the news leak out early in the week that the emperor sought the advice of Prince Bismarck on the eastern and Socialist questions T.ie German press at first refused to IMieve this; out it Is now generally admitted to be correct The matter reach-t I the ears of the public by the Indiscreet conversation of a high official, to v. the emperor personally confided t.ip information, and later Prince Bis-in treks own organ the Hamburger Aachnchten, confirmed the statement. It is reported that Prince Bismarck nlvised the emperor to introduce into reichstag, so soon as possible, a r. anti-Socialist bill, modeled on the A of 1S78, but containing more strin-V .1 provisions; The ex-chancellor, it I aisj understood, counselled the ac-c -I'tance of the resignation of Dr.

the Imperial secretary of state for the interior, and Baron Marschall vm Biebersteln, the imperial minister fir foreign affairs, whose resignation have been; in Jthe emperor's pocket since spring. The Hamburger Nachrlchten during tho course of several articles on the suojoct. discussed the lminent necessity of suppressing, by military action, the social revolution which is believed to be threatened. BISMARCK VriUL ATTEND. Prince Bismarck has acecpted an Invitation to attend the fetes on January is, the anniversary of the re-establishing of the empire.

These celebrations will be highly impressive and upon a large scale. The emperor will review the guard corps, all attired in their n-iw gray overcoats, on the templehoff field Pr.nce Bismarck will stand on his right lnd. and all the leading statesmen, Iir.nces and generals of the stirring Ums of 1S70-71 who are still living, v.Al be present. The banquet at the palace, which will follow, will bo a memorable one for the toasts and orations which will mark the occasion. Prince Bismarck will follow his majesty In a speech.

Living pictures will also form a part of the program. A citizens festival ommittee has been formed here and there will be a grand commers at the Philharmonic hall. In consequence of the number of re-ctnt indiscretions in betraying military Ferret orders and arrangements, to so-c ilists. and imperial mandate has been issued to the generals commanding li different army corps, forbidding nl soldiers, under severe penalties to d. any matters pertaining to army 'inmunications.

This Is prohibition in "Wichita. Topeka Press: A great deal of surprise was created at WiohAta when Mayor Fellows and the Topeka city council arrived. The people expected to see the Topeka delegation clad in ministerial robes and carrying family editions of the Bible.

It was antici-patod also that tho Topeka visitors would rally around tho town pump and hold a praise service.

Philadelphia, Dec 2L Tho senatorial Investigating committee yesterday resumed inquiry into charges of police corruption and inefficiency. Considerable testimony was given regarding alleged police protection to the notorious house3 run by Xellie Raymond and Lottie Stanton on Race street and by other proprietresses on other streets, and specific charges of police extortion were made by a couple of women, one of whom swore that she had been In the habit of paying officers In the Eighth district "privilege money," which enabled her to ply her trade on the streets unmolested.

She testified that she would pay the money 1 on the streets in amounts of about $1 at a time. There was a considerable stir in the audience when Catharine McCann was called, and a rather prepopessing young woman took the stand. She stated that she now lived in the rear of Xo. 91G Vine street, but had formerly lived at Xo. 428 Garden street, in the Eighth district She admitted that the police had demanded money of her, but that she had never given them more than a dollar at a time.

"When would they demand this money and where?" asked Mr. Pettit. "They would come to me on the street at night." "Can you name the officers that have demanded money of you?" "Yes, sir; Officers Wheeler, Lovett, Ellinger and Mike Hurst." "Where did you generally walk at night?" "Well, street, and XInth street, and Callowhlll street" "There are a good many other girls along the same street, are there not?" "Yes, sir." "Do those girls have to pay In the same way?" "I could not say about that I never heard them say anything about it; but if you do saj' anything about it they seem afrlad to talk about it." "Did you ever have any girls with you that had to give up any money?" "Well, there was a girl who lived with me and she asked me if it would be advisable to go out, and I told her she could suit herself. She did go out and just after she made a dollar the policeman came up to her and she had to give it to the policeman instead of giving it to me." "What do they call that, when they ask you for money? What do they ask you?" "Well, they say: 'Well, can't you buy me a or something of that kind" "When -do they do this?" While we are walking along the street." "They call It money for 'privileges' don't they?" "That 1s what we call it" "And the 'privileges' are that you can stop people along the street and speak to them, and solicit?" "Yes. sir; but they told us not to stop anybody in front of them, but to walk on when they (were around, as there might be somebody watching them." "Have they ever arrested you?" "Only once Mike Hurst" "Howdid he come to do that?" "Well, he stood beside me when I came out of the house with a friend.

This was the first time I had ever seen him. I went up to him and gave him a dollar. After that I went in the house and stayed there a few minutes, and when I came out, my friend, who was with me. said: 'Let's go get something EHHE3 and this officer, Mike Hurst, came up and said: 'Yu had better come along with I asked him what for, and my friend said: "This is my and the officer said: 'If that Is your wife you can come to the station house, too, as she has got to come with "Didi he take you to the station house?" "Yes, sir." "Were you discharged the next morning?" "Three dollar? and a half fine the next morning. He swore that he had I sef-n me solicit three men.

He didnt see me solicit anybody." "Are those officers stIH on the force that you speak of?" "Yes. sir; I believe they ar." Xellie Lester of Xo. 1105 Vin strt. but who formerly lived at Xo. Sv4 Xobl street, where she said she rented rooms to girls, was the next witness.

"In that alongside of yon. wr there other houses of the same character?" she was asked by Mr. Pettit. "Yes, sir; the most of them." "Did the police ever molest them, or the people who tlved In them?" "Xot that I know of." "Did chey ever molest you on the street?" "Ye. sir: Officer EHinger asked m- to buy him as much as $25 worth of tickets.

I tMd him that I would unable to do that, but might take a copule. and he said: 'Why, take them and tlwm to the girls In the house I had five girls in the house at th? time. "DJd you take the tickets?" "Xo. sir. I didn't: but I toid him that I would try to take a couple of dollars worth, of them.

"He "arrested me seven or eight times: One time I was looking out of the gate and I saw him coming and I closed the gate and stepped back, and he pushed the gate opeu and dragged me out My skirt was torn off me, and I was bruised about the body by being thrown up against the gate. While he was dragging me out of the gate Officer Wheeler came along, and I asked him to let me alone while I died my hoe, and Officer Ellinger said: 'Give ber He -had me arrested about eight times, and then I moved- out of the district- He has arrested ine once since I moved out of the district-' OKLAHOMA OUTLINES.

Congress to be Uretl to -Make the BUI for Hlx Iutcad of Two. Washington, Dec 21.

The suggestion lhas been made to Secretary Herbert by the naval bureau chiefs that congress be requested to immediately authorize the amendment of the last naval act so as to permit the department to contract for the building of 6ix battleships. Instead of the two provided for. It Is urged that in view of the low figures of the bids at the recent opening, It would be greatly in the interest of economy to accept all of the bids and, according to 'this plan, the Xewport Xews company would be given the contract for two and 'the Cramps also a contract for two. All of the ships would be of the Kearsarge type with double turrets and 13-lnch guns. The cost of the six shins, at the out- aide, and there Is reason to believe that the bidders would still further scale down their figures, would be $10,440,000 exclusive of armor, whereas the last congress lixed tne limit or cost of out two ships, with armor, at JS.OOO.OOO.

The necessary armor would cost about three or four millions additional. Secretary Herbert has the matter under consideration, XOT TIIE T13IE TO STRIKE. Cubans Call on Secretary Olney Without Stcntioning Itrcognltloii. Washington. Dec 21.
