TWENTY- QUEEN AND PREMIER Delioate Tact with Which Victoria Man- ages to Keop a Politioal Equilibrium. IN CLOSE TOUCH WITH A BUSY WORLD £he Holds Her Place in the Proczssion with Most Consummate Graco. WALES AS A SHREWD POLITICIAN Never Takes Bides and Very Few People Know What He Thinks. ULTRA DEMOCRATS EASILY DISARMED Would-be Destroyers of the Monarchy F| the Lack of a Leader and the Absence of & Tyrant Insurmounta- Obstactos, [Cowyrighted 1502 by James Gordon Benaots.| Loxpos, Nov. 26.~[New York Herald Cable—Special 1o Tur Bey. At the time of my writing Mr. (iladstono is just conclud- ing o visit to Wiadsor castle, The queen, with hor usual tact, has taken good care to giveno cause of offense, even to the most Jealous of politicians, with regard to the way o which she has dispensed hospitality. Some of the new men n the ministry, who wow for the first time enter upon ofticial life, have already recaived special invitations to the casile, She still shows a personal liking for Salisbury, buat Gladstone, outwardly at leust, 1s placed upon the same tooting. Tho court is too wiso these days to take any active side in party polities. There are no favorites, The aueen hersolf may have private preferences, but they are not visivio peyond the circle of her own homs, Salisbury and Gladstone both ars most in- terssting men personally, und their conver- sation on any topic would always be worth listening to. Of course, in the presence of the queen, they canuot start aoy subject. They must follow the lead that is given them. but there is no question of the cav, foraign or domestic, upon which the queen 1s not 8o well tuformed thatshe has nothing 1o learn from tho wisest of her cuests, As for the various forces that go to wake up public lite, Gladstone himself has mot u more intimate knowledge of them. The advantage of this pasition in the present day, alike to crown ana country, is immense. No jealousies can bo excited where markea preference 1s shown. Ultra Democrats Impotent, Men are coming to the front whoso avowed object is to wreck the existing social situa- tion. Most of thew want to begin with the monarchy, but they find no respoasible statesman to lead them, Gladstone has always paid the profoundest deference to the queen, as weil as to the rogal family goner- ally. ‘The prince of Wales, liko his motner, shuns committing himself to any party. It would not do for any one to attack Gladstons or Sallsbury in his presenco privatoly. His leanings are supposcd to tend in the dirse- tion of liberalism, Once it was whispored that he was in favor o! home rule under proper checks, but he has very few coafi- dants on these matters. He has never given any one tho right to say what his opinions really are. One thing cartain 1s that all our leading public men concur in praismg bis sound common sonse, good judgment and right feeling. Gladstono indulges in some tall talk when out of oftice, but depead upon it be is nover golng to lead a revolution. He must keop upibis Influence over all secuions of mis party, but when it comes to carrying out the views of the extremists he is not there. He is a pretty @uod couservative as soon as ho gots into power, and even the forwards are wonderfully cooled down under bis iu- fluence, There 1s Asquith, the new homs secretary, who was supposed o bo another Robespierre. Ho has been wwice to Windsor castle, and now goes yround purriog all over the place like a tame cat. No doubt if we had o tyranton the throne all these gentlemen would rush to arms aud bocowe 80 many Cromwells, butunder the prosent circumistances what is the uso of threaten- ing to let out anyvoay’s blood ! Thoro aro no longer any tyrants in high places, though there area good many to be Zound if you look lower down. Very Little Will Be Changed. See how few arc the changes even cou- templated. Iustead of abolishing the House of Lords Gladstone is rewarding personal friends with peevages. - Kzypt is not to be evacuated, and even Uwanda 1s to be kept under ono protext or another. The govern- ment will send out a commission of inquiry of its own. \What does that meant Simply that we shall stuy where weare. It is tho old story, the more you changas the moro it iy the sume thing. Ofllces and honors go to oue side Instead of the otner, but the essen- tisl principles remain unchanged Of course, there is the Irish difiiculty, So there has been anv time for ceaturies.

Lord Moore's fraudu- lent agency for the collection of alleged for- tanes left by unknown relatives, has prac- tically put an end to that indusiry in this country, but in its place has sprung up a business which, while less lucrative, has at least originality for an excuse and may do much toward indueing unsuspecting peovle to put their money inlo it.

The Army ana Navy Gazette contains a letter from @& correspondent warning the lords of tho aamiralty not to adopt the Har- voyed process for armor plate until they have themselves wade experiments with case- hardened armor. The writer suggests that the Harveyed plate process is in all essential features a case-hardening one. He says: “You have an armor plate heated out of contact with the air, its surtace covered with car- bonaccous material,in order to steelify it and produce a gradual sinking of carbon into the metal, giving a regular gradation from hard to0 mild steel. Iiseems to we that before call is made on the public funds for the pur- chase of the Harvey process, o few armor plates of wrought iron or mild stecl should be sent to Sheflield to be well caso-hardenad in the ordinary way, aud I do not presume too much on probabilities in saying that it would afterward be a puzzle to distinguish thew from the Harveyed plates.” BLUMENFELD, Presided Over by tho Frince of Wales, LoNvoy, Nov. 20.-~The governors and fol- lows of the Imperial 1nstitute had 8 meeting tonight at which the Prince of Wales pre- sided.

[Copyrighted 1 v New Vork Associated Press.] Benwiy, Nov. 20,.—When the debate on the imperial budget opens in the Reichstae on Wednesday next some indication will “bo given as to the manner in which the parties are likely to range themselves on tho army Lill.

Thero is an almost unan imous foelmg among the members of the Reichstag against proceeding with the army bill until the government's financial projects connected with tho measura are fully dis- closed. The house will compel Chancellor vou Caprivi to make an exolicit statement during the discussion of the general esti- mates. Keeping Their l.'lmn Secret. Until a full ofticial dodlacation is‘made of tho overnment plans for new taxation, cov- ering the extra expenditures, the loadiug mombers of tne Reichstag aro reticent re- garding the liaes of attack or defense. In the meantime, if the tone of the centrist and national liberal organs was an infal ble guide, the fate of tho army bill would ba settled, According to theso organs, tho measure will be de ted on its lirst reading. Chancellor von Caprivi wili resign within a fortnight and the Reichstag will be dissolved soon after he leaves ofiice. The elections for new ~“wembers will end in January and will r>suit in a stronger oppasi- tion than in tho prosdnt house. (lovernment oMcials are confident that none of these pre- dictions will be fulfilled. They say the bill will be debated on December 5, and that it will pass the first reading by a fair majority. Then it will be remitted to a committee. 1T tho centrist party require that their sup- port be bought by the chuncellor agroeing not to oppose the centrist measure per- mitting the return of Jesuits to Germany thon & bargain will be strack. /Chis would bring the government seventy votes. Return of the Jeosuits, Chancellor von Caprivi, as recently as the last session, opposed the centrists proposal to ropeal the law against the Jesuits, but the party has chosen the right moment to bring pressure on the government, which will surrender, and will neither oppose nor support the bill, but will let the centrists puss the measure with the assistance of the freisiunige party, the socialists and the Poles, all of whom would vote for the repeal of the present anti-Jeswit law. The Germun people, as a whole, are indifferent about the Jesuits, the presence of a few hundred of whom would not bo felt by the country. About fifty centrists who do not suppory the plans of the romainder of the party will oppose the bill. ‘Ihe government has also takon this into consideration, and the wrath which will be aroused among tho conserva- tives Ly the return of the Jesuils wiil counterbalance the otber considerations.

Herrfurth seemed to be stuoved by this re- proach. He replied thav be had been obliged to resign because, while he was minister of the interior, he refused to submit to the de- mauds of the Bavarian parliament, claiming that their interests were protected at the ex- peuse of otbers. 3 Minister Miquel's proposals with some minor amendments were today referred to a committee.

MELTZER, here THE COMING CONSISTORY, All Docuinents Relating to it Must Reudy by the 15:h of Docember, Rowe, Nov. 26,—The holy father has directed that all documonts ting to the comiug consistory shall be ready by the 10th or tho 15th of Dacomber. 'Lhis order proves notning decisive as to the date of the consis- tory. The popo has often delayed it,~even whon evorything was perfectly ready, Thus it sacms that the consistory may take place beyond the dates mentioned fn view of the fact that his holiness is still preoccupiea with tne airection of matters of grave polit- ical import. The political situation in Europe fills Lis thoughts to a great extont. His Christmas discourse four years ago was a vibrating appeal for prace. The popo bo- heves that war is wellnigh impossible, and that an armed peace will not ‘only ruin the peoplo of the vavious Euaropean countries, but will foster tho unarchists, who will rise sooner or later in barbarous revolt, It 15 bolievod that tho time is not distant when the pope will determine upon urging a combination for gencral progressivo disar- mament.

LAUGHING AT CAPRIVI'S DISINGENUITY Things the Chancellor Left Unsald Attraed Much Interest and Draw Forth Some Comment—Crispi's Speech Alno Boing Talked About Paris. [Copyrighted 1822 by Jamay Gordon Beanett.] Paxig, Nov. 20.—[New York Herald Cablo — Special to Tk Ber.|—The inters est of Furope 1s centerea in two things—the Panama canal scandal and the speech before the Reichstag of Chancellor von Capriv Both ovents ai0 of importance because they are sigus of universal change in poliuos, The Panama scandal, oven if only the halg of whats told bo true, prov es that the pere sonnel of a great French party is rotten. 1t is lmpossiblo to give nu idea of what the results may be, The first sessions of the perliamentary commission were disquieting, Deputy do la Haye does not say that ho is able to give names, but he furnishes the commission a number ot checks bearing the names of bankers, checks ondorsod by M, Drumont, who refuses to say angthing until he is set at arty, The commission de~ mands the pardon of M. Drumont, ’ Monrning lo Brav General, The frighttul muddle brings to mind the sad momories of the convention of 1793, fivery popular sentiment is embouied in the exclamation : *Ob, if Boulanger wero not dead!" Certain it 1s that were he alive his chances of raturn to power would bo great. 1t is @ sad commentary, but casy to understand. The people aro woary of looking at so much corruption. The republic is on too solid & basis to be indanger, but personal politics will be the broom which will sweop the nex election, The speech of Chancellor von Caprivi has produced a bad effect in Europe. 1 see from the diplomatic dispatches that come fros London that everybody considers the speech, the fororunnor of a warlike poliy. Nobodyy understands why the increaso in the effecs tive forco is demanded. 1 am obliged to ads mit that thero is no existing reason for they demand according to Caprivi. This imprash sion and publia opinion in Germany are idens tical, Diplomatists observe that the almost absos lute silence of the chancellor on the triple allianco was quite characteristic. silence is also observed in the speech from the throne of Emperor William. The geny eral opiuion is that tho triple alliance is no§ s strong as it was, This 15 & new confirmas tion of what the Herald said six months ago about the conlness batween Germany and Austria, the rapprochement betweon Ru: and Austria and even sentiment ia Italy. Dust in the People’s Eyes, Count Crispi. in his speech at Palermo, blamed the ministry for. baving renewed the alliance, He held that it should have lefs 1taly’s liands free, so that sho might draw closer to F'ranca. On tho other hand, the vatican 18 working openly ugalast the triple alliance. Therefore the efforts of diplomate ists and the incroase in armuments cverys whore have brought about a universal strain, In Germany it 1s caused by an unwholes sowo policy. in rance through scandal, It is necessary tocreate a ‘‘vigorous foreign pole icy' to distract the attention of tho people from other things. It is to be feared thab the present awkward situation will be pros Jacques Br.
