June -[New York Horald Cable—Special to Tue Ber.|-For some weeks past thero has boen a rumor afloat 15 London to the effect that Gladstono intends 10 take refuge in the House of TLords after the approaching general election. 1t is not atall unlikely that Disraeli is not portic- ularly anxious to become a peer, but tue time 018 arrived when he could no longer stand the hara work and late hours of the House of Commons, and bad either to havo the ad- vantage of the leisure afforded by the upper house or to retire from active poiities alto- gethor. Gladstone finds bimself in much the same position now. Although his health is surprisingly good for a man of his age, still tho evitable infirmities of 84 years are pross- iog heavily on him. His physical strengtn 18 failing and he is geowing very deaf. His eyesight is also giving him way. His election campaign in Scotland will bo com- pressed within the narrowest limits. We all know that even it he came into powor his reign must be brief. By removing himself 10 the House of Lords it may be somewhat proionged, but in any case he caunot occupy a prominent position in public life for moro than n year or two tt the longest. All Occupied with Elections. Meanwhilo the din of the general election is heard all over the land. The season is virtually over. Very few leaders of society are issuing more invitations, and tha thea- tors are getting ready to close. Some of them might well have been shuv up weeks ago. Members of Parliament have gone to their constituencies, a journey from which a good many are never likely to re- turn, How is tho battle going? At present it is 1mpossible to say. The couservatives will lose some of their seats in the rural districts; the liberal-unionists will alsosuffor. A scarcely seein what direc- tion these losses are to bo mado up. 1f some of the Enelish boroughs also pronounce for Gladstone tho fate of the unionists will be sealed for the moment, but the contest would bavo to bo fought all over again in a few months honce. Stanley has decided to stand in one of the London constitnencies in the liberal- unfonist interest. Ho explams in an addresss how he became an Ameri- can citizen and why ho resumed Dbis birthright of English citizenship. He is dead against an Insh Parliament. I think his chances of veing elected are good, for his name and reputation .are very powerful among all classes and his great knowledge of Africa will render him very useful in Parlia- ment. Tho first election will take placo Monday, July 4, for the Evglish buroughs. Their decision will influenco the others. There- fore each party is extremely anxious to score. The queen will remain at Windsor until the resut is known and a new ministry formed.

Ho announced his de- termination to attend the meeting regardless of the accident, and was cheered lustily by the crowd who witnessed the deed. The mo- tives of tne stone thrower are not kuown, Since the first report of the assault on Mr. Gladstone was reeeived it has been ascer- tained that the guilty person isa woman, and that the missile which she employed was large pieco of gingerbroad.

The grounds haa been enciosed with hurdles trimzad with red bucting and in the center of tha terrace a small pavillion, surmounted by the royal arms, had been erected. The spaces on either sido were crowded with aristocratic personages, a special train hav- ing brought a number of the quoen’s guests 10 tho castie. Victoria Arrives. Promply at the hour fixed for the show to commence, the queon cama focth from the castle, attonded by Princess Beatrice and her children and Princess Christian. She entered a littie pony carriage led by a groom and attended by two gillies and some Indian servants, and thd party then procceded to the pavillion. The queen was sttired io @ black dress of the plainest description and wore a queer looking straw bounet. Arriving ncar the pavilion the queen was carefully lifted from her carriago and walked, with the md of a stick which she carried, to the seat which had been prepared for her in the center of the pauilion. When tho royal parly had scttled in their places a signal was given and the eutertainment was at once begun, Nate Salisbury, the manager of the Wild Wost show, was introduced to the queen and stood by hor side explaining each act as it was performed. The queen was 1n the bast of humor and avpzared to be greatly inter- ested in the many strango sights which she witnessed. She asked Salisbury many ques- tions and said that it was a wonderful show. She admired the dariug and brilliant riding of the cowboys best of all, and was especially delighted with their work on nettlesomo bucking ponies. She was much impressed by the wonderful management and informed Salisbury that she haa never before scen such horsemanship. Atthe end of the performanco she re- quested that “Buffalo Bill” and Major Burko be presented to her. Sho complimented Buffalo Bill very highly and presented him with a large gold seal containing har mono. gram, surrounded by the words of the royal motto “ionie Soit qui mal y pensa,’ the whole being surmounted by the imperial crown. She gave Mr. Salisbury a scart pin consisting of her initials studded with diamonds and also surmounted the imperial crown.

The emperor succeeded in persuading him against making any reduction, mainly through plodging the assistance of the leading banks of Germany in an oporation for the purcnase of oxistiug Italisn bonds, and also, if re- quired, the assistance of a syndicate to take o new Italian loan. A Germaun banking syn- dicate has long been silently but patiently operating to distribute throughout (formany 1arge amounts of Italian loans. The opera- tions have been fostered by secret prompt ngs from the foraiga offics, which seems to regard the absorption of Italian bonds as a subsidy to a needed ally.

In an interview that Signor Brin accorded o number of journaiists, prior to his start- ing on his raturn to R)ma yestarday, he said that he could foresea nothing that was for a jong time to disturb the p2aceful relations of European powers, When asked whether it was true that the czar had invited Emperor Francis Joseph toa conference at Skirni- wice, or Shatsk, Signor Brin cautiously ad- mittad that he had heard something concern- ing the subject, adding that the arraugements were still a matter of reserve. He hoped, however, that if a conferance ocourred be- ween the czar aud the emparor tho bost ro- sults would follow. Signor Brin declined to «ay aoything as to the financial position of Italy, excopt that the new Italian ministry . would be strengthened by the friendly attitude of the German government. According to the foreign offico here, Italy wili be financially strengthened until she has time to arrange her affgirs. The omperor's resolution to maintain the credit of Italy for the sake of the triple alliance constitutes a leading elo- et toward restoring financial order, Bismarck's Triumphal Progress. Bismarck's triumphal progress reached its climax tonight at @ reception given in his bonor at the Rathhause at Munich, Tho prince was never popular in Bavaria during his tenure of office, but since his fall, and especially since his opposition to the em- peror, his pooularity has been greatly en- hanced. The prince regent of Bavaria and all of the royal family left Munich in order toavoid giving the prince a reception, but bofore going the regent dircoted the organ- 1zers of tho fetes 1n the prince’s honor to spare nothing to muke them successful. At the banquet given ut the Rathhuuse, all the wuests brimmed over with cnthusiasm. Prince Bismarck expressed his thanks for the reception given him. He hoped that peace would continue to b3 assured the' em- pire by the existing alliancss, a matter which was of spzcial import in conneotion with the security of the Bavarlan frontier. Every imporial government, he said, was in duty bound to promote an imperial policy in harmony with the aational tradition. The prince here called for ‘hochs” for the re- zent of Bavaria. Theso were given with a good will by all presont and the assemblage then joined in the siuging of **Die Wacht am Rbein.” Criticized the Emporor's Polloy, Some allusion in the speech plainly indi- cated Princo Bismarck's desire to convey the impression that the policy of Emperor William and Chancellor von Caprivi was a falureand menaced the future of Bavaria as it did thav of the other parts of the em- pire.

In regard to i\ing Humbert's visit to Ber- lin it is known that the sovoreigns had sevoral long interviews and that Mininister Caprivi haa many conferencos with the for- eign ministers, According to dispatches which have come from both Berlin and Rome these conferences and interviews have pro: duced some decisive results, Quletly Coerced Him King Humbert, wo are told, asked Em- peror William to instruct German bankers to give Italy some substantial assistance in her financial crisis, to which the emperor is said to have replied 1t was out of his power to render assistance to the Italiaus. In this way 15 explained King Humberts sudden resolution to ask England for a subsidy, in return for which he expressed his williug- ness to grant her whatever advantages she may desire in the Mediterranean. Weo are assured that this diplomatic stroke produced agreat impression on the emperor, and im- pelled him to decide in favor of assisting Ttaly with monoy orotheriwise, This is just what took place at Berlin, and in theso facts we see an explanation of the dispatches that huvo been passing to and fro botween the various European capitals and that has caused such a stale of nervousness 1 the political world, Whe gland Comes In. As political events the successive visits of the Balkan soveroigns to London are of special significance, Scarcely had the prince of Bulgaria gone when the king of Romaunia arrived, Family reasons were given as the pretext for both visits, but the truth is thatthe British minister desired wo learn the trythin regard to English influence in the Balkaus. France is entirely at easo in regard to her coloniul possessions, though discussions with England are increasing every day. In Morrocco England has lost influence, and has failed to obtain the object of her wishes. In central Africa, on the other hand, she has won considerable advautage. Several dis- turbing rumors are being circulated in re- gard to the situation 1n Africa, but the truth seems to be thut in view of the approaching general election tho British government is doing its utmost to arouse the national patriotism, Another Diplomatic Seandal, Another scandal has come to light. Two employes of the ministry of marine have been arrested on the charge of stealing doc- uments relating to the mobilization of the fleet. E'rom certain proots in possession of the authorities it seems clear that the docu- ments were loaned to a foreign diple- mast, who photographed them, and after roturuing the originals, sold the photographs Lo the ambassadors of Germany and Italy. Anu official investigation has been made, and it 1s stated that the diplomatist photographeris Captain Borup, a military attache of the United States legation. Ono of the thieves, namod Graucie, was arrested as ho was eutering Borup's residenco on the Avenue Marceau, and he then had in his pos- session the stolen document. I ought to say that Captain Borup has not a very good rep- utation in military circles, Think the Americans Lie, There is 8 widespread rumor, though up tothe prosent nothing has occurred to jusuily it, that, the French government has demanded bis recall. The United States legation ghas issved an oficial note to the press in which it compliments Borup and says there is mo truth in the story about him, And he has no counection with either Italy or Germany, for my part I hove the truth will be brought tolight, but T must say that no official of tho French government be- lieves the statements which have been mado by the United States logation, In the Chamber of Deputies M. e Frecinot dolivered a speech in regard to the recent trouble between officers of the army, and in words that were applauded by tho ontire chamoer he matained that all the officers in tho French army were Frenchmen aud nothing else, and tuat at no time has there becn any question as tostheir religion., de Sores Still in Prise ‘The marquls de Mores is still in prison, but it 1s likely that he will be rcleased pending bis trial. - His wife will probably visit him today.

Why, instead of publishing these outrageous charges in the papers did they not come to me about the Molanite affair, Turpin having offered to sell mo the secret of tho discovery. Knowing it was a matter of utmost import- anco to the French government, I went to the artiliery department and asked General Mathicu if it was a matter I could properly obtain information about. 1 repeat, I have never done anything but what was my duty us military awtache.

The world stauds very nearly whora it did & month ago. Italy is no richer, Ger- many no surer, i'rance not much stronger, Russia still famished. Compared with the Dresden celebrations, all these meeting ot presidonts und monarchs haa not much 1m. portance. I iwas uot at Kiel, but I saw Care not enter Naney. [ was prosent when King Humbert reached Wild Park, ana I stood nearthe ex-chancellor at Deosden. There was tremendous difference botweon spon- taneous outburstof enthusiusm in Princo Bismark's honor, aud the ofiicial though im- pressive demonstrations 1n French and Prus- siun citi and the reviews both at Potsdam and Nancy mado but a poor show boside the torehlight parnde of the 15,000 volunteers of Dresden, Bisinarck's Great Recoption. The reception of the king and queen of Italy by the Beriiners was friondly and re- spectable, but 1t had little of the warmth which marked the progress of tho iron states- man. Bismarck rode though Dresden like a conqueror. He was escorted by a peovle and. greoted with a fervor born of gratitudo. la the caso of King Humbort, no such enthus asm could of course be looked for, at all ovents it was not visible, 1t 15 easy to seo that the Itallan monarch. has accomplished by tho journey. ievelas tlons of tho Herald some weeks sinco des barred bim from asking to bo released from milltacy pledges nnd the moment was not opportuno for hinting at loans, and all that Lo could do was to affirm his own desiro to keep the bond which bound tha kiugdom to its allies.

He has done the very best to serve his country, but ne bas beon 1nvolved in the wheels of a great political machine, He has had ministers who blundered and he is as powerloss as one of the ministers who has done the most Lo embarrass bim. What Occurred at the Meeting. Signor Crispi may by the by shortly go to F'riedrichsruhe, Keil. The interview has be- come rather ancient history, but it may not be too late even now to tell oxactly what oc- curred at the meeting. 1 have my facts from one who was present. As we know, the in- terview had not any political significance, and to make this doubly cloar the czar was careful to select his escori from among the least important of his followers, aud he haa ordered oven these to keep strict silence on oll burning questions, Two members of his suit wero drunk throughout their stay au Kiel, snd as a further precaution, the czar was mocompanied by the czarowlitch, who Kept by bis s1de while he was tatking to the German emperor, and thus chocked all at- tempts to divert the conversation from the common place. PPolitics were not touched on fora moment, and both monarchs seemod to be £00d spirits, the emperor more vurticularly, and as e had no suspicion at the time of the grand duke's sudden twip to Nancy the in- telligent czar did not open his lips on the subjeot, When the emporor heard of it the noxt day bis mood changed quickly. ‘Das ist toll.”” said ne, and was thoughtful for the next few days, Alexunder Grew Cordial, the influence of his bright surround- ings the czar grew cordial, laughing ana cut- ting jokes with his host. Iho bost joke, the grand duke's trip, as I have said, bhe enjoyed alone, and his organs, whatever they may have puvhisbed to the contrary, hed no inkling of the truth until some hours after that Alsace-Lorralne was not meutioned at the meeting. The talk of the two monarchs was referred from first to last to tnifling topics, Later on, in the conversotion with Count Sehouvoloff, the czar remarken: *1 must say tuat Caprivi has treated us very decently. 1l faut Pencourager.” Tho czar Lius been u steady upholder of the chaucellor all along, sad ho has bis reasons, no doubt, Weo hear no more iu Berlin of that rezon- ciliation Metwoen the emperor and Bismarck, The emperor wis willing, not so with the statesman. On his return from his journey 10 Friederschiruo @ short time ago Baron Bieichroeaer nformed two Prussian minis- ters that tho prince would nov hoar of mak- ing any savances toward peonle who were trying to make peace for bim with sovereign “Dio horren.” He disdsinfully observed, “Sollen wir den duckel ruuterr,” which belug very freoly translated would read, “Reconciliation be d—a.” Und Hussin at the World's Falr, S1, PEIERsIURG, June 5. —The treasury lias allotted 60,000 roubles for the purposs of preparing the Kussian exhibit for the Chis cago Coumbiun exposition.
