The ceatrists aro in the meantime solit lnto two seotions, one of which is uncompromisingly opposed to the military bill, while the other will openly port tho government if it can obtain cor cessions widoning the Catholic privileges Out of 109 contrists the government 18 still hoveful of getting support. Thoe conseryatives ure divided over the army bill, and they will require skiliful ministerial landling to induce them to support them with the whole streugth of the group, The Polish groun coutinues to hesitate in its allegianco to the government, Only the Reichstay party will go solia with the whole branch for Chaucelior vou Caprivi. The emperor’s specch opening the Reichstag aud the subscquent statement of the chancelior on the new loans to cover the military ex- penditures will be the carlicst factors in regulating the policy of the groups. The bourso holds 1t us a foregone couclusion that the loans will be 1ssued at 3 per cent. Whatever adverse criticism the urmy pro ject may receive in the Reichstag, German bankers aud moembers of the bourse are ready to fully cover the loans, Tho bill is certaln 1o pass 1ts first stage in the houso oud will then be referred to a commitiee, In the meaniime the oppenents of the wovern- ment circulate endless rumors of disseusion in the Bundesrath and the approaching fail of the chancellorship, Chancellor von Ca- privi’s latest successor is Von Loe, com- mandcr of the Lighth army corps. He cer- tainly is more likely to get the post if General von Caprivi ia ousted than either Count von Tulenberg or Herr Mique Quarrcled Over Bismare A sensation has been cansod by the abrupt departure of the king of Saxony from Potts- dam, whove he was visiting ISmporor Wil- liam. The sudden ending of the visit caused to ve circulated a report that the emperorand tho lug bad quarreled over tho army measure, {ome sudaden rupture un- doubtedly occurrea botween the sovereigns, but as the government of Saxony some time ago assentod to the military reorgan- 1zation, tue rupture could not have hapnened over tho army bill, Members of the diplo- matic circle it tke report that tue differ ence arose over the emporor’'s broposing to prosecute Prince Bismarck, whose latest rovelations as to how he precipitated war with I'rance by falsifying the famous Kms dispatel, aro believed in official quarters to ustify any measure that may be applied to silenco him. The king of Saxony not ouly opposed Princo Bismurck’s prosecution, but urged the emperor to mako the first advanco toward the reconciliation with Bismarck. Whatever oceurred, it is a fact that after the private conference, which lasted two hours, between toe monarchs, the king of Saxony cut short his visit, made a brief call on the chancellor and guitted Berlia without any court official doiug the usual houor of accompanying him to tho railway station. The emperor, who had received him at the railway sintion surrounded by the officers of his household, entirely ignored his departure. The incident will not abate the determin- ation of the king of Saxony to provent the emperor from prosecuting Bismarck, Will Try to Pateh Up a Treaty, Tho failure of the negotiations for a mercial treaty with Russia is not final. The St Petersburg Bourz Guzette today says that Russia, though unable to sacrifico her coul and iron trades in exchange for a re duction in the German corn duties, will ro- sume negotiations on wmore favcrable eco- nomio lines. Thoe socialist congress this afternoon quictly disposed of all the amendments to the paity program by passing the orderof the aay.

To be o Horald correspondent in Berlin uowadays is to live under the closest scruting, often watciiod by detectives, subjectod all the while to inauits from that section of tho press whose repre- sentatives wait outside the docrs of the for- eign oftice, ivside of which they never get, for erumbs of news disdainfully thrown them, and returning to their ofiices to write meekly, humbly una flatteringly of the great- ness of Count von Caprivi.

It is for Herr von Kiderlenwachter to come forward with a justitication of his conduct in this matter of an iuconvenient forelgn journalist Just as in the Bismarckian ora.
