HAYTI OBJECTS
TO FHE FOURTH DEMAND
MADE BY GERMANS.
; WONT BE IIUMIHIED
I
Germany Will Nor Send The
War Sii.t'.
-
Washington Dec. 2—The exact
1 nature of Germany's demands on
I Hayti became known for the first
I time today. The details came by
‘ way of the s'enmer from Poit-au-
I Prince, winch arrived at New
(York yesterday, and show the de
-1 mands to be as follows:
■ lAn indemnity of $20,060
American d jllurs for Emily Lued
ers.
2 The premise that Mr. Lueders
'may return to Hayti, and there
sojourn without danger of of any
kind.
3 A letter to my government in
which you will express apology
for tue proceedings toward the
German government in the
whole transaction.
4 That the preside nt of Hayti
shall graciously receive the Ger
man charge d’affairies at Port-au-
Pr : nce •
It was also announced that if
indemnity was not giver, a war
ship wou'd be sent or diplomatic
relations be broke >.
Without answering the demands
in detail, Hayu asked if Germany
by presenting this demand, intend
ed to close the negotiations in the
Luedeis c. se and also en what
ground an apology was asked.
The’monsy demand was regard
ed by Hayt as far less important
the other three, which was con
sidered as affect- ig Hayti’s honor.
The dema id tin.., the president re
receive Count Schwerin gracious-
I ly was looked upon as involving a
deep humiliation, as it was this
a flic'al who had gone before the
president and rudely submitted
his demands. It was his fourth
u maud which led Hayti to pre
pare for one eventuality.
Since the foregoing correspon
dence c'osed it has become appar
ent, accoid : og to cab'e dispatches
from Berlin, that the suggestion
as to the seeding of warships has
been modified and that there is no
present purpose to send them.

DINGLEY DEFICIT
MUST AGAIN BE FACED Al
END OF THE iONTH.
FRIENDS OF THE BILL
Confident it will Ultimately
Produce Sufficent Revenue.
Washington. D-c. 2, —The Dmg
ley tariff law still fails to produce
enough revenue to cover the ex
penses of the government. Each
month since the law was enacted
there has been a deficit. The
treasury receipts thus far in No
vember indicate that the receipt*
for tho month will reach F25.000,-
000. It aying a deficit of $8,500,000.
Treasury offioials contend that,
although the redbip‘s thus fai
have been disappointing, they do
not ind'cate the final results of
the new tariff lawJ
They expect that the special rev.
entie on sugar, fwh'ch will be
available in tni spring, will
amount to $1 000,©00 a month,and
they compute thatcustoms receipts
on other articles will be increased
by $2,000,000 a nntb, a total in
cease of $6,000,050, which is the
amount the government is now
running behind .
