ADMIRAL VON KOESTER’S IMPRESSIONS OF AMERICA. \ “ GERMAN-AMERICAN EVENING” AT THE HOTEL DE ROME. (From our correspondent.) Admiral von Koester, who has just returned from the Hudson-Fulton celebration in America ; Professor Benajmin Ide Wheeler, Roosevelt Professor at Ber lin University, and Professor George Foot Moore, the Harvard Exchange Professor, were the three chief guests of honour at the latest “German-American Evening” held on Saturday night at the Hotel de Rome. A large number of Americans, headed by Mr. R. S. Hitt, American Charge d’Affaires, and Mr. Gustave Scholle, also of the American Embassy, were in attend ance ; the American Consulate-General was represent ed; President F. Hessenberg was present on behalf of the American Association of Commerce and Trade, and the corps of American newspaper correspondents was also in attendance, almost without exception. Distinguished German guests were Baron von dem Eussche-Haddenhausen, of the Foreign Office, and Ex- Minister Dr. von Studt. Admiral von Koester, who is an excellent speaker, gave a highly interesting account of his impressions in America. He touched upon all manner of things that had struck him, from the beauty of the Hudson to the overwhelming impression made by the American crowd,—“a crowd such as the untravelled Berliner cannot even imagine.” He described the American pa rades and the American banquets, telling how, in the Astor Hotel, no fewer than 2,200 persons had dined simultaneously—and well—w'hile from ten till half-past one a.m. the toasts were continuous. Ad miral von Koester spoke of the Americans as “splendid speakers,” whose fluent well-turned sentences the Ger mans might well imitate. Professor Wheeler, the big, quiet, humour-loving President of California University, as the second speaker compared the Berlin of today with the Berlin which he used to know twenty years ago, and told of the enormous changes which he saw as the result of Germany’s industrial progress. Professor Wheeler prophesied that Germany and America would never grow apart, but that the bonds between the universif ties would prove the best guarantee that the two countries would continue to march along together. Professor Moore, the Harvard Exchange-Professor, and Professor Dr. Gierke, of Berlin, who has just returned from Harvard, were also among the speakers of the evening. The German Press, commenting most pleasantly upon the success of the occasion, refers to the “re markable social picture” which the crowded Festsmil of the Hotel de Rome presented. “No uniforms, no frock-coats, no decollete; none-the-less an impression of quiet, social refinement; a typically American gathering.” BERLIN ^'fTR^ordz-Miss C.M.

Munsoor Mooshi, the Persian missionary and teacher whose pathetic story, as told by himself, made such a deep impression a fortnight ago upon the congrega tion of the American Church, has decided to continue his journey to America, notwithstanding the tragic breaking-up of his party. He expects to leave this week, previously, at the instance of Mrs. William Irvin, making a visit to Hanover to see Countess von Waldersee, a distinguished American woman whose interest in Eastern missions is proverbial. Munsoor Mooshi is one of a party of three Persian brothers who arrived in Berlin some weeks back en route to America. Munsoor himself was educated in an American Presbyterian Mission School in the East, and was now for the second time on his way to America to gather funds for his Eastern mission work. A few weeks after his arrival in Berlin his brother, a young man of twenty-two, a mission teacher on his way to . take an educational course in America, became sudden ly ill and died a few r days after his admittance to the Hospital am Urban. Only a short time before they left Persia the father and mother of the three brothers had been murdered in an incursion by the Kurds. This fresh blow met with in Berlin seemed to quite take the life out of the party. The two surviving brothers had almost de cided in despair to give up their American plans and return forthwith to the East. Luckily, Munsoor Mooshi decided to put himself in touch with the American Church, and appeal for advice and help. The Com mittee advised Mr. Mooshi emphatically to proceed to America, and, taking a radical step, gave permission to the Persian, a stalwart, swarthy “muscular Chris tian” of over six feet in height, to himself present his story, after the service, to the congregation. Mooshi’s simple unvarnished tale of trouble ap parently went right to the hearts of the people. When the plate was sent round for the Persian the response was so generous that a sum equal to almost half the ordinary offertory was at once taken up. Gifts of clothing have since been sent by other Ame rican friends. In addition to the energetic efforts of the Church Committee, headed by the Rev. Dr. Murlin, Mrs. William Irvin has been untiring in offering con solation and practical assistance to the afflicted Orientals.

The continued rumours regarding Mr. Roosevelt, says a Rome telegram, are causing great anxiety to Mrs. Roosevelt, who has received no definite news of the ex-President for the last ten days. She is preparing to leave for Africa immediately should it unhappily prove true that Mr. Roosevelt is ill. LONDON, Sunday.—The representative of Reuter’s Agency in Mombasa telegraphs: There are good grounds for believing the unfavourable reports of Mr. Roosevelt’s health to be unfounded. Neither in Mombasa nor in Nairobi have any reports of the ex- President’s alleged illness or mishap been received. Authorities and private persons are energetically en deavouring to get into touch with the Roosevelt party. ROME, Sunday.—The local American Embassy here recently telegraphed to Nairobi asking for particulars as to Mr. Roosevelt’s health, and has just received an answer from one of the ex-President’s friends to the effect that a telegram from Mr. Roosevelt has now reached Nairobi. It states that he is quite well and is at present in company with Lord Delamere. NEW YORK, Sunday.—An express train of the Pennsylvania Railroad bound for Jersey City met with an accident yesterday, five train officials being killed and many passengers sustaining injuries. Particulars are not yet to hand. PHILADELPHIA, Sunday.--On the invitation and desire of the American Academy for Social Politics, the German Ambassador, Count Bernstorff, delivered a lecture here last night on the theme, “Germany as a World Power.” Count Bernstorff, who was intro duced by Mr. Charlemagne Tower, the former Ameri can Ambassador to Berlin, was very’heartily received, and was later the guest of honour at a banquet given by the Academy. LONDON, Sunday.—The Observer learns of an in tention of the Admiralty to commence operations at Seapa Flow, Orkney Islands, for the purpose of con verting this point into a base for a squadron of the Home Fleet. HAVRE, Sunday.—The French liner Lorraine, which left here yesterday, in the course of the evening col lided with an unknown steamer off Cape la Hogue, and returned to port with some damage. No lives were lost. Passengers and baggage were at once transferred to another steamer, which left early this morning. LISBON, Sunday.—King Manuel this afternoon com menced a round of visits to King Alfonso of Spain, King Edward of England, and President Fallieres of France. He is accompanied by his Foreign Minister. VIENNA, Monday.—Grave riots took place yesterday on the Prater racecourse owing to the disqualification of two strongly backed favourites, by which a rank outsider won. The excited crowd surged up to the judges’ stand with loud threats, pelted the judges with stones, and played havoc with the barriers, tribunes, and ticket-offices, throwing the fragments onto the track to prevent further racing. Mounted police were summoned and soon cleared the ground. Only one case of injury was reported, that of a man who was struck by a stone. ST. PETERSBURG, Sunday.—In various European periodicals of late, including the Fortnightly Review, it has been stated that the Russian Foreign Minister proposed to the Austro-Hungarian Government the annexation of Bosnia and the Herzegovina, and even of the Novi Bazar Sanjak. The Petersburg Telegraphic Agency is informed that this is an utterly unwarranted construction of the privy representations which the Russian Cabinet made to Vienna on June 19 1908 These documents dealt with the question of Bosnia’ the Herzegovina, and the Sanjak, but only a complete acquaintance with their contents would be consistent with judgment upon them. The Russian Cabinet in these documents decisively affirmed the necessity of maintaining the status quo and mentioned as its fixed standpoint that the whole question bore an European character, and could not be solved by an Austro-. Russian agreement alone. This declaration can in no way be construed into a proposal for annexation. MADRID, Monday.—The Madrid Gazette publishes a decree whereby the Constitutional Guarantees are restored in the provinces of Barcelona and Gerona PARIS, Monday.—It is reported from Oran: A mem- bei of Muley Hafid’s mission who has returned to Melilla states that the Riff tribes have unconditionally surrendered to the Sultan and will accept his decision as arbitrator between them and Spain. Muley Hafid’s representatives will now negotiate w r ith the Spaniards dnect who, it is hoped, will accept as conditions of peace the delivery up of all weapons in the Riff and the settlement of the mining question. CONSTANTINOPLE, Monday.—The Jeni Gazetta reports that the Turkish Government has finally de cided to purchase one of the Dreadnought battleships now completing in England for Brazil. Two Turkish officers, at present in Genoa, will shortly visit England to inspect the vessel chosen (The three Brazilian Dreadnoughts now completing in North of England yards are of the most powerful type. In fighting power they surpass the original British Dreadnought, carrying two more big guns and embodying other improvements. The vessels have been the subject of much interest since the order was placed. At one time it w r as suggested they would pass to the British Navy, and at others to the German or Japanese fleet. Brazilian representatives have repeatedly denied that the vessels are being built for any navy other than that of Brazil.) CHURCH SERVICES: DRESDEN. All Saints’ (English) Church, _ Wiener Strasse.
