Facts which have occarred within the past fortnizht have given rise to much discussion. The Bavavian princes, who were in the habit of proceading to Ber- lin at Now Year's to offer their good wis hies and congratulations to the omperor, have this year omitted this courtesy, and it is no secrot that the Bavarians approve this ab- stention. Bavaria foels hurt by the attitude which the youns emperor has assumed toward thoir princes. It was agreed some time ago that one of thom should ba appoiuted inspactos general of the army. When the time camé for signing the appointment, William de- clived to confirm the arvangement except on tne express condition that the princes should live in Berlin, ‘The Bavavion nt, Prince Luitpold, veplied thar he would not pormit his sons to leave Munich. On that the emperor dectared that all the ofticors of the staff, including the Bavurian princes should leave Prussia. In Munich this as- sumption was regarded as humiliating. Negotiations were stopped, and since t(hen the relations between Munich and Berlin have been much strained.

For the Peace of Europ A movement of opinion in favoa of the re storation of Alsace and Lorraine to France is visible. Its advocates are not Frenchmen or Utopians, but men of eminence in neutral countries. In an article which he coutributes to_the Revue de Lessauue, the well known wiiter M. Talichet, who has earned & world wide reputation by,hls moderation and the fnfluence he wiolds in Switzorland, declaves thit the Prussiun military system is crudn- ing to Europe, As, even after twenty years of subjection, the Alsatians and Lorraines still desive to beiong to France, it would be basttocontent them.

The latier returned, however, and the firing was continued until early this morning. The military authoritics today took a hand inthe affair.
