He came oui of the University of Bonn fully prepared to enter the school of statecraft. Set to work in the government bureaus, he was early taugh the routine of offi- cial business under the tutelage of | the great Bismarck. At»the death of his father, the im-}| perial throne devolved upon William | If who was then but 29-years of ge. Bismarck continued as chancellor but not for long. Tho the great states- man had made every effort to instil his young pupil with his own ideas of government and diplomatic’ poii- cies, the new Emperor soon found that he disagreed with his grand- father’s former close adviser in many important respects. In 1890 the dis- agreement of the two reached a is, a rupture came and Bismarck went. The relations between the two men remained strained for several years, but before Bismarck died ce was made between them. With the passing of Bismarck the nperor’s real reign began. As a military man he was a stickler for efficiency, discipline and the observ- ance of etiquette to the last detail. And of the details of all these com- ponents of army life and training he was familiar to the smallest point. It views he was able to detect the slightest imperfection in the equip- ment or training of a regiment or alled attention to the dereliction sharply. With the princi- | ples of tactics and maneuvers, too, he was thoroly acquainted. Besides being well versed in army matters, the Emperor was_ thoroly | familiar with naval affairs, having a technical mastery of the details that | go to make up the efficiency of a fleet. Study of naval problems was one of his pet occupations. His in- fluence was potent in fostering the development of German commerce, art and se‘ence. His interference in these affaids,as well as in statecraft often embarrassed German leaders and evoked from them admonitions to leave dinlomacv to his chancellors. In evervthire he was described as thoro and. withal. one of the hardest workers in the emnire.
