General Von Kaltenborn Stachas, Minister of War, opposed the motion. He said that the control of the marccurres was the prerogative of the Emperor and the House had no right to interfere.
He added that the Prussian authorities, taking Into account the prevalent distress, would pro- vide fodder magazines for horses and buy cattle from people in the suffeding districts for troops taking part in the maneuvres.

Dr. Lieber, Centreist, made a speech against the bill, but advanced no reason against its adoption beyond thore employed by him against the original bill In the last Reichstag.

LATE TELEGRAMS:
Simla of the twenty-fifth that, rightly or wrongly, the belief obtains that the Darks bave combined to create an artificial rate of exchange. We are informed by the manager of one of the leading Indian Banks la Londan, who, we understand, speaks for the Banks collectively, that there has been no comblaaiton or thought of combination on the part of the Banks to laffuzece exchange. They state they have no other with than to set fairly and honourably towards Government. The recent fall in exchange is due, they say, to among these i perfectly natural causes the shrinkage generally of the export business of India consequent upon the action of Government In regard to silver. It has been pointed out, on a previous occasion, that the small applications for Council Billa here was partly due to there being a surply of supee paper speculatively imported Into Europe to anticipa ton of the closing of the Indian Mintz, and that the Banks were at present very naturally em playing this means of remittance in preference to Council Buis.

THE STRIKE OF MATES IN SINGAPORE.
SHIPS LYING IDLE,
With reference to the recently organised strike of mates in the Mercantile Marine at Singapore, the Straits Times of the 4th last says:-For some time past the mates of the various ships trading from Singapore have complained of the celous decrease in their salaries caused by the flactuations of the dollar. The ship owners when appealed to in the matter saw so present o portunity of improving the state of affairs an they were subjected to the same disadvantage. As a result of this feeling several of the mates of local steamers have gone on strike for higher wages and have left their ships. At present there are seventeen mates who have left their vessels swing to the refusal of the owners to grea! an increase of salary. The strike is able to become a serious matter if it continues, follow. ing as it does after the stagnation of local trade produced by the recent Siamese Blockade. There are three ships, the Sappho, Celestial, and another vessel ready to leave with full cargoes but they may not be able to do so owing to the abrence of chief officers. The complaint of the men is that they signed articles when the dollar was of much more value than at present, and several of them having families feel it a hardship that their salaries should not be raited in proportion to the decrease In the currency. The
men нест confident |
that they will get what they demand, and unless arrangements are settled, it is probable that the engineers will come out on strike in support of the mates. As a meeting of mates held in the Marine Club last night it was decided that -
"No'mates shall sign articles for less than go dollars, and 2nd mates 60 dollars per mensem. All men with twenty-four hours clause give notics at once, and all who can leave at once, do so, until a satisfactory rangement is arrived **t."
No mate on shore will sign under go dollars, and and rate under 60 dollars.
A meeting of Engineers will be held this evening (4th) in the Marine Club to consider
