ISiiiiMS', Tan. 24. Tho following semi
nllieial announcement was issued to
day .
"Statements regarding Germany's in
tention to open tin) port of Kulo Chon
to the commerce of tho world are prac
tically correct. Germany desires that
her policy should ho of u lllioral ehnrac
tur, not interfering with the commerce
of other nations."
Ni:iv Vokk, Jun 24. There in reason
to hclievo that the moral influence of
Hid I'nited States will Bitpport Great
llriliun in her oflorte to keep China open
to tliu commerce of tho world, says tho
Washington correspondent of thu Her
idd. The only nctlvo HtopH which tliu
government will prolmhly take in the
mutter will he to enter the negotiations
with Germany respecting the treatment
of American Hhipu entering Kaio Chon
and Hiich other ports in China uh may he
seized in the future !y the RusBiau or
Japanese governments.
"If China Iuih leaned Kaio Chon on
the condition that It Hhall be opened by
Geriiiany uh u Chinese port, then it will
not he necessary for the president to
take steps in the mutter," said an oflieial
of tho adininiHtrution. "It will mean
that thu commerce of all natioiiH will he
allowed unreHtricted entry thereto. If,
as wo believe, however, Kuio Chon
should he leased to Germany without
conditions, then Germanv will have the
right, and will undoubtedly excrete it,
to int in operation port and customs
regulations hiicIi uh are now in force in
(iuriumi home iortn.
"The United States cannot mal;e ob
jections to the extension of Hiich regula
tioiia in Kaio Chon in mioh an event, for
it will he uh much Gunuuii hoII to nil in
tents and purpOBCH uh in Hamburg.
However, the udminiHtration will expect
from Germany any privileges that may
be granted to any other nation, and
will, therefore, reap the benefit of which
Great Hrittain'ti altitude against the
shutting of the ChineHo door to the con:
merce of the world will give.
"This is required in nccordance with
tlieartieloH of the treaty between the
United Htates and Russia in 1878, which
provides: 'If eneh party Hhall hereafter
Kraut to any nation any particular favor
of navigation or commerce, it Hlmll im
ineiliatoly become common to the other
I'iirty, freely, whuro it la freely granted
to such nation, or yield to the Hume
compensation when the grunt is con
ditional. "Attachea of thu Chinese legation are
naturally very much pleased at theutti
Imlo assumed by Great Bnluin, uh they
'I'l'reciate that Hhe will have tho moral
iiilliioncu of tho United States and other

Nuw Yoiik, Jan. 24. A special to the
Herald from Madrid says:
The attacks in the house at Washing
ton have produced a feeling here which
perhaps is scarcely justified, pointing
Towards tho fixed purpose of a certain
section of American politicians to iiiBist
upon war with Spain. The government
is disturbed and the press 1h full of the
subject. The'lniparciul soys:
"It would be difficult to believe that
J,he United States purposes to undertake
in tho face of the whole civilized world
the enormous responsibility of revoking
war, for which no reason exists today.
It is a cold-blooded mockery and affront
to the general conscience."
The Correepoudeutiu suys :
"We cannot imagine why the ma
jority of the people in the United States
wish for wur with Spain, seeing the
great disturbance such a wur would
cause. Wo cannot think that the lingoes
will prevail in their evil work. We be
lieve tho government of the United
States will not commit this unjustified
and thoughtless imprudence."

San Fua.stisco, Jan. 24. With thu
rising of the sun this morning thu cele
bration of the fiftieth anniversary of the
discovery of gold in California, known
us the golden jubilee, was heralded bf
the booming guns at the various forts
which Hue the shores of the bay at tiie
entrance to the Golden Gate.
At 10 :30 o'clock ouo of the most in
turestlug parades ever seen in this state
marched through thu streets, which
were gaily decorated with Hugs and
hunting and thronged with people from
every part of tho state.
At least 00,000 strangers poured into
tho city last night and this morning, and
half as many more from the towns across
the bay swelled tho crowds from this
city alcng the line of march. Market
street from tho ferry to Van Ness aveuuo
was packed on either sido. Every win
dow along the line of march and many
roots of buildings were pressed into serv
ice by tho sightseers. It is estimated
that 10,000 men were in line.
The splendor of tho celebration of the
golden jubilee which began this morn
ing is not likely to bo surpassed for many
a year to come, The entiro statu has
gladly responded to the Appeals of the
miners, pioneers and native eons and
daughters, and from now until the close
of the carnival week Sun Franoisco will

This fntthion lxpan last summer. A

The end of the resort season ha by-

A thousand veais ago Benedictine
monks discovered a small sulphur
spring on a mountain near .Munich.
They built a hospital there that wa.s
iiM'il by their order until 'JO years ago,
v.Jien it was bought by King -Maxi

l.oor sick folk, says the London .Mail.

After loiur and anxious consultation
with his brothers the honest, kindly
prince erected new buildings ami
opened the house every year for three
months as a hotel. It was jsatronifird
by many of the royal and noble families
of liurope, though it is free tn every
comer who will conduct himself re
j-jM-etably and pay for his accommoda
tions.
Duke Theodore provides the food
from his own farm, which he oversees,
while his brother, Prince Ludwig, acts
n; host of the hotel. All guests are re
quested to leave on the last day of Au
gust. The house is then filled with
frcores of poor teachers, artists and au
thors, invalid soldiers and poorly paid
clergymen, whom the royal brothers
have formally invited to honor them
with a visit. The money made during
the summer is devoted to their enter
tainment. The duke and prince remain
in the house, lavishing kindness and
courtesy upon their guests.
