Fort Wayne Weekly Breeze (Newspaper) - October 31, 1895, Fort Wayne, Indiana Capital City Chat. News and comment in and about Washington. Russia s secret treaty is doubted Congress Likely to tackle tie currency questions Cleveland and Cuba a Reed As a presidential candidate. Report is premature. Vets Lugton Cortes Ondesco ii 1 l e t h e Hows that comes by Way of Hong Kong and London about a so Cret treaty recently concluded betwee i c h i n a and Russia for a railway through the Liao Peninsula and the occupation of port Arthur must be regarded As premature for it is let believed impossible that the Empei or of China should have made this great Saer Itice without external pressure. Again it seems impossible because Lapan has not yet evacuated the Liao Tung Peninsula and has three Mouths to do so after the payment of the first instalment of the War indemnity which will not be due until about the 1st of january. It is not very probable that Russia will show her hand and attempt to occupy the territory until Japan has evacuated it. There is nothing strange about the Story that the russian War Fleet has left Vladivostok. If it does not get away from there pretty soon the a hips will be All Frozen in and be utterly helpless until next Spring. The ice begins to form in that Bay about the 1st of november and it often lasts until the Middle of May the freshest and most accurate political news from China comes by Way of St. Petersburg and it can generally be relied upon. That which comes by Way of Quot cannot be relied upon. The russians just now have Access to the authorities in Pekin which is denied to the representatives of other governments and the min a ister cables Long dispatches full of interesting Ini Orma Tion to the foreign office in St. Petersburg every Day. He has practically camped in the Tsung i Yamen. The British minister at i Ekin does not enjoy the same facilities for gaining information and when he does get it and telegraphs it to the foreign office in London it is generally suppressed because just now All of the events in China Are unfavourable to British i interests and the government does hot consider it Wise or dior fail to communicate them to the Public. That the russians Are getting on very Well with the chinese May be inferred by the fact that the emperor has conferred the order of the double dragon upon m. Shishkin assistant minister of foreign affairs at St. Petersburg and upon count aplist and m. Lissowski the chief and vice chief of the Bureau of Asiatic affairs in the foreign office. This is a very unusual distinction and carries great significance. Such honors have been conferred upon very few foreigners possibly five or six including Quot chinese Quot Gordon who assisted in putting Down the Tai Ping rebellion Anson Burlingame the american who first introduced China to the world sir Robert Hart who has for Twenty five years Bee i collecting the import duties for the chinese government and one or two others. Never before i believe has the Honor been conferred upon Active officials of another government excepting Kings and regents. Work ahead for Congress. Without any Doulet the currency question will be thrust upon Congress again during the coming Winter. Or. Cleve Czar of Russia. Ali Omaha b. A kid. Jand set out Long ago to break the Quot endless Chain Quot and whether the country is with him or not or. Cleveland has a Eash iou of going ahead with the things lie has set his heart on. There will be some foreign questions Loo and on these the president will have the first word. The president is said to be eager to find a Leader who will Rise to the height of a great occasion and sound the watchword of no party in the face of t possible foreign foe. In View of these issues great interest centers in the men rho Are the acknowledged leaders of the Republican Par. Cleveland and Cuba. It is impossible to obtain at washing ton either confirmation or denial of the re it that president Cleveland while in Atlanta suggested a postponement of the May set apart by the managers of the sex of Tion for expression of sympathy with Cuba. It is known however that for some time Senor de lome the Spanish min ister has been protesting to the Sec retail of state against the use of an organization which has received the official Sanction of the United states government As is the Case with the Atlanta exposition for the purpose of pro i uban agitation. Senor de lome has expressed the View that with private meetings of citizens for such purpose the government May have nothing to do in a free c entry like this but has argued that the Case is quite a different one where the exposition is concerned. The government made an application for an official display there and has Given it a certain recognition in the eyes of the world. It is also known that president Cleveland does in a mild Way de rom ate the la Olding of sympathy meetings in this country. This is not because he lacks sym Pithy with Cuba As an individual on his own account but because he does not think any Good purpose is to be served by carrying on an agitation which May have an undue effect upon Congress. Reed s Horoscope. Thomas b. Reed is now admittedly the leading Eastern candidate for the Republican nomination for i resident. Here at the capital no one is disposed to deny that the big Man from Maine is at the present moment the greatest figure in the contest. There is at that it same time serious doubt whether he will be in the front of the column next Spring. That will to a great extent depend upon himself so Man in the United states has a More difficult role to play than that which will fall to or. Reed s lot during the coming six months. No Man will be More closely watched or severely scrutinized than he. Lie As speaker May be diametric Al h. H. Holmes on trial. Notorious criminal arraigned Fot the murder of Pitzel. 11. To. Holmes who according to his own remarkable it confessions stands at the head of modern criminals was put on trial in i Lii Ladelphia londay morning for the murder of Benjamin f. Pitzel. Holmes sprung a is ii station at the opening of the trial by Rex testing his counsel to withdraw after they had made an in n. H. . Effectual attempt to secure a postponement. The prisoner is conducting his own Case. So Many aliases have been worn by the Man on trial during the course of his spectacular career that his baptismal name. Herman Mudgett has almost been m. Felix Faure. President of France whole ministry has been shattered by an Adverse vote in the chamber of Dep cities. By opposed to Many matters which or. Cleveland May favor. And it is not at All unlikely that the president May win to some of his projects the support of influential members of the opposition when or. Reed would find himself Between the upper and the nether Milestone with the reduction pressure screws working automatically. Get out under fire. Grave charges of fraud cause a Cabinet crisis in France. France is again without a Cabinet. President Faure has accepted the resignations of the ministry headed by m. Ribot which were offered because of a government defeat in the chamber of deputies during the debate on the South of France railway scandal. The crisis was precipitated by m. Jouanet. Who was Active in the Panama canal scandal he moving that the report of exp Ert Flory the official accountant on the finances of the railway be made Public. This motion was resisted by Premier Ribot. But was carried by a vote of 27 to la a. Amid Radical cheers the members of the Cabinet then left the chamber which thereupon adjourned for a week. The defeat of the gone rement is not surprising in View of the sweeping charges Maile against senators deputies and even ministers involved first in tie Panama syn indicate and Mora recently in the South of France railway scandals. The charges culminated recently in the Senten ii to imprisonment for a year of m. Edmond Magnier formerly senator of the i Var and editor in Chi if of the Kven ement who is said to have received 87,&Quot it francs As part of the profits of the Syndicate referred to. It will be recalled that the fall of the Dupuy Cabinet which resulted in the resignation of president Casimir Perier grew out of a debate on the government railways. The government held that its guaranty of interest to the railways expired in 1914, but the Council of state to which the dispute was appealed decided that the guaranty was perpetual. The chamber of deputies censured the ministry for having submitted the question to the Council of state and the Cabinet resigned the president following suit the next Day. While making an argument in the United states supreme court at Washington Gen. Thomas Ewing was taken suddenly to the Point of faintness and was compelled to suspend the argument and allow it to be taken up later by one of his colleagues. He revived after some Effort and continued in the courtroom until the conclusion of the argument lost sight of. Not so his manifold exploits in half a dozen of the big cities of this country a Liili have been marvelled at wherever men can read. Wild and weird As is the confessed Story of his life in which he accuses himself of offences which would Long since have Given a less skillful criminal his quietus. Holmes has been careful to shift the main responsibility for the various murders with which he admits having been connected to other shoulders. Thus during the thirty eight years of a life devoted almost a it a Tiroly to Law breaking this is his first exp i ice As a Felon on trial for his life. Tic authorities have recognized that this is no common criminal. But one who might be called a technical and most exert artist in crime. It is therefore their determination in the event of securing his conviction for a capital offence to Quot Railroad Quot him to the Gallows. St. Louis is a candidate for the Honor of being awarded the National conventions. The Rev. Myron w. Reed of Denver insists that illegal vote is should be shot Down at the polls.
