CABINET OFFICER RESIGNS
(iomian Secretary of Treasury Gives
Up Portfolio.
BERLIN. Feb. 6. It was announced to
day that Freiherr von Stengal, Secretary
of the Imperial Treasury, had resigned
office. His successor has not yet been
named. The retirement of Von Stengal
ia undoubtedly connected with the finan
cial embarrassments of the German. Em
pire and the difficulty in finding: a solu
tion satisfactory to the various states
and political parties.
The two wings of Chancellor Von Bu
low's bloc disagree radically regarding
ways and means of raising revenue to
meet the Increased cost of the Army and
Navy. In the meantime the Army and
Navy bills have passed their second read
ing. Tliey entail material increases in
expenditures without the means having
y-t been found of raising new revenue.
This Impossible situation wore on the
nerves of the aged Secretary of the Im
perial Treasury, who at the same time
had an added private grief In the recent
death of his favorite son.

BLOCKS COPPER VOTING
Injunction Puts Stop to Calumet &
m ' Hecla Scheme.
GRAND RAPIDS. Mich., Feb. 6. Judge
Knapff, in the United States Court here,
today gTanted the petition of Albert S.
Blgelow to enlarge the preliminary In
junction granted last April against the
Osceola Mining Company. The enlarged
injunction prohibits the company from
holding a meeting of stockholders until
the further order of the court.
This will prevent the Calumet & Hecla
Copper Company from voting stock which
it holds in the Osceola company and the
injunction will remain In eifect until the
whole copper controversy is settled. It
is claimed by Blgelow .that the Calumet
& Hecla owns enough stock to place the
management of the Osceola under Calu
met & Hecla rule.

Dismembered Body Found in Bay.
MARTINEZ. Cal., Feb. 6. Excitement
has been aroused in this vicinity by the
finding of a man's dismembered body
floating in the bay near the sugar refin
ery at Crockett yesterday. Only the legs
and torso of the body were found, the
head and trunk having 'been hacked or
torn away, and there are many cir
cumstances which suggest- that a brutal
murder has been, committed. Who the
victim was and how he met death are
questions on which the authorities so far
have been unable to throw any light.
Identification is Impossible because the
head, trunk and most of the clothing are
missing. Under instructions of the sher
iff's office, boatmen have been making
a careful search on adjacent portions of
the bay today In the hope of finding the
missing- trunk and head, but their ef
forts have been without result.

OCEAN RATE WAR ENDS
Agreement In Ixndon Probably Will
Restore Old Figure.
' LONDOX, Feb. 6. The general meeting
of the representatives of the transatlantic
steamship companies today decided on the
broad lines of a mutual agreement. The
purpose of the conference, to put an end
to the present rate war, has therefore
been practically accomplished. The de
tails of the agreement will be worked out
by committees.
The rate war has been going on in. one
form or another for the best part of a
year. When the rate-slashing began in
earnest the price of a steerage ticket fell
until the low level of $18.75 was reached.
An understanding between the steamship
companies will result in the re-establlsh-ment
of a rate approaching the old stand
ard of 31. -
