Ouly in the meeting of tho Ilinois delegotion was any ceneral intercst manifested, as hopes were still entertained by all the other candidates that Springer’s forces would goto piecos on the first ballot. The meeting of tho delegation, however, failed to give them any great grounds for thishove, 1t was sim- ply agreed that General Newberry should present Springer’s name to the caucus and no nction was taken binding the Illinois con- gressmen to Springer under tho unit rule. The failure of the Illinois friends of Mills to openly desert Springer was due to the ac- tion of the Michizan delegation. Whiting of Michigan waited upon Messrs. Forman, Fithian and Wike of the Tilinois delegation and aunounced that the Michigan delegation had decided to give its entive support of seven votes to Springer upon tie first ballot, but that if any Illinois men deserted to Mills upon the first ballot, the Mictigan delegation would vote solialy for Crisp and endeavor to effect his election. The sume announcement was made to Hayes and the other Springer men of the lTowa deloga- tion, who wore understood to be ready to go to Mills upon the first ballot, Tho eaucus was called to order at 2 p.m. by Congressman Holman, The first trouble in the caucus came with a question as to how the voting shonld proceed by secrot or open ballot.

Curicaco, Til, Dee, 5.—Rev. John Barrows, chairman of the general commwittee on re- ligious congresses at the World's fair, has mado his first report of progress to President Bonney ot the World's congress auxilar T'be report shows the most remarkable inter- est in the proposed gatherings among leaders of religious thoughitall over the world, and promises a series of religious iferences during 1503 that will excel in magaitude and interest any similar meetings ever 1. In his roport Dr. Barrows calls especlal attention to the comm>ndation from all quar- , brought out by the proposal to_ hold a eat_ecumenienl conference, at which rep. cntatives of al! faiths and nationalitics will be represented. On this Dr. Burrows says in part “I take espeeial pleasure in sendiug you the following report of our plans from “the pen of his eminencs, Cardinal Giobons, under date of November 23: “Judged by the tenor of tho prelimi address s the goneral committee of religious congrosses in_conncction with the exposition of 1503, 1 deem this movement you are engag/d in promoting worthy of all encour- agement and praise. Assuredly a congress of eminent men, gathered tozether to declare as your address’ sets forth, what they nave to offer or suggest for the world’s betterment, what light religion s to throw on the labor problems, the educational questions and the peculiar focial conditions of our time, cantot but result in good to our common country. I refoice accordingly to learn that tho pr ject fer a religious congress at Chicagoin 18 has alveady won the sympathies and enlisted the active co-oparation of those 1n tae front rank of human thought and progress, even in other lands than ours.

Conrad von O'Relli of Basic, Switzerland, the famous vriter; President tarper of the Chicago umversity; Rev.

Novertheless, I cannot read without intorost your communication.

HIS RECENT SPEECH TO THE GUARDS. That Remark About Recruits Made Much of by the Enemies of the Empire's Progs ent Rul 10y yrighted 1891 by James Gordon B nnett.| Pants, Dec. (New York Herala Cable Special to Tue Be New aids to those coucerned about the mind and soul of tho kaiser are supplied aaily, and several have beea furnished them this week. Ior in- stance: One, and not ikie least curious, is a volume of sermous which has just been pub- lished by William, It 15 entitled: “‘Die Stimme des Herrn, auf den Wassern' (*“Tha Voice of the Lord on the Waters”), and gives us an insight iuto the more mystic points in William's character, I'he sermons in themselves h cauce. They resemblo the homilies one hears in countless German villages. As those who may have chancead to spend some of their Sundays in Vaterland are aw is usual there to preach two sermons o Sabbath, The ministers wra upt to repeat their favorite parases, The kaiser does the same. He has taken as a toxt: “Let us ad- mire nature, the book of God.” His mind does not positively soar iu the sermons. In one place he says: “How hard it scems that 10 mutter Low exalted wo may bo, we can do nothing.” "The rest is given up te quaint conceits and far-fotched imagery. ‘‘Ieaven is a battle- mented fortress,” “The apostles are giants’ nd “The clouds are theroyal chariots of God," are among these figures. T'he whole volume bears vivid testimony to the kaisers mysticism, ‘The military aspects of the German ruler are on the other hand reflected in his address to guards which has reached us by telegraph. No monarch ever used move ill advised or brutai words. One phrase above all—If [ nd youto fireon your fathers and , vou will obey”-~would be monstrous from the “lips of a private person and will sh weapons to the socialists in their struggle with the monaschy Excuses for the Kaiser. The persistency with which William spoaks of the danger of kivil war, although ouly two days ago Chaficellor von Caprivi declared thatno such Habger existed, has made such a deplorablgtimpression that the German officers 4o first sed to beliove the imperial speech was authentic. They have, however, had to Law to facts. The speech is genuine, and now in extenua- tion of their sovereigh’s words they aro driven to assuming thau if the public knew as much as the kaiser dgos, it would attach more meaning to his utterances, The Post draws a paraliel betwoeen the im- perial spoech and a remark of tne socinlist deputy. teine, in the reichstag, in favor of tho red flag. But there is a wide difference between-it and the kaisers. However much the Germans may strive to explain away their ruler's monstrous words, they throw distressing lizht upou his soldier mothods. W hat then aro we to thiuk of this young emperor The answer is perhaps uot hacd to find. If we refer to a work by tue emiunent pr fessor, Cisare ' Ambroso of Turin, entatled, “A Man of Genins,” 10 which the author speuks of tho brainsickuess and the character person strikingly like William (in the vooks he is called Mattoide, which signifies a man not quite but nearly mad”). We may see @ mental unalysis mado eight years azo before people had bogun toworry about the present kaiser: “Mattoide has the sewblance of & man of gonius without thae substance,” Continuing, L'Ambroso says: “Mattoide is endowed 'with physical ouergy. Ho is untiring. He ca tus craving for change of scene to the powt of vagabondage. He loves gorgeous costames and striking pos- tures. tlo has a peculiar fondness for as- suming disguises. He talks much: He is eloquent and fierce, but his specches are hollow.” All the symptoms hers described might found iu thie kaiser's case. And it they a correct the prognosis of U'Ambroso may also be correct. The Italian remarks: “After a more or less prolonged period of theoretic agitation Mattoide luvariably reaches a really agituted phase, in which, with his bursts of wild and {mpulsive rage, hg be- comes dangerous, “T'he prognosis is alarming enough, for in the case of the Muttoide of whom P’rof. 1'Ambroso speaks, at these violent moments ient’s family can intervene. But who would dare to medle w:ith an emperor! Wo be pardoned for trembling for the peace lurope wien we refiect upon what issues it may hinge. One thing, at all events, is settled now.
