BERLIN, Sept. 80.—The arrival of Emperor William of Germany at Rominten, his Prussian shooting box. has been fixed for tomorrow, when the new chapel built there Wwill be dedicated in the presence of the em- press and a larg e number of the court, In this city no uce is given Lo vhe story that the emperor will visit Fredens borg. The the ored eut agitation 1n England in regara defects found in the British war rought on mainly by the disaster to the Victoria, has an echo here. It will be remembered that in the House of Commons recently, Mr. Edward 1. Gourney, a well known shipbuilder and member for Sunder- land, asked whether, since the sinking of the war ship Victoria the government's tention had been directed to the iticism of experts at home and 1d as the utility of ships of monstrous size. It was claimed that the majority of the Jarge British battle ships were compara- tively useless for the purpose they were in- It was also suggested that the British fleet woula be more strengthicned by ddition of large numbers of fast ¢ of powc to ships, uis- ful rams, and vessels of a type smaller and less expensive than the monster battleships which seem to find so mucn favor with the British suipbuilders, Chusiig Dissatsfaetion In this country the reported increase in the naval estimate has caused much dis- satisfaction among the radicals and liberals who claim that Germauny does notmneced a strong navy or an addition 1w the ariny. The shipbuilding experts of Gemany have followed closely the criticism made in Eng- land upon the British warship which has recently met with disuste and tie German cxperts insist that the present existing type of rman rshaps is especially unsuited to Germany. They cite, as an instance, that the Kocnig Wilhelm and the Deutsehland are scarcely able to use their guns during a heavy seu. This fact was instanced recently during the naval maueuvers in the German ocean, and itisclaimed that these ships were shown to be thoroughly unsuited for Germany’s flatland coust. The Koenig Wilhelm was launched in 1800, hus twelve inches of armor, carries cighteen 14i-ton guns and four 12-ton guns; she has 8,000 indicated horse power and a tonnage displacement of 9,757 tons. The Deutschlana hus ten inches of armor, carrics cight 23-ton guns and soven 4-ton guns, She has 9,000 indicated horse power and a dis- placemert of 7,700 tons. It is also shown that warships like the Kron Priuz roll much in the German ocean that their « are scarcely able to move at all these facts, it is more than likely that the government will meet with serious oppos tion in carrying out Emperor Willium's pr ject to inerease the strength of the navy. 50 50 cws In view of rman Rolls Like a Cradte, fhe Kron Prinz armor and ¢ has only five inches of rries sixteen nine-ton guns, She is of 5,800 indicated horse-power and has a displacement of 5,568 tons, As an in- stance of the rolling propensitics of this ship it is sald thaton a recent cruise when she wet with rather rough water neaily all her oficers and sailors were more or less se; sick, and those who were not seasick were pitced aboat and bruised in an alurming munner. Complaints of a similar nature have been made against several warships in Great Britain, The present situation Diet will be watched with unusuul interest here, because the recent elections in Bava- rin considerably changed the position of the different parties in the House and have wrested the majovity from the center part This vesult is chiefly owing to a politicul revolution, headed by what is known hereus the Peasants league, an organization somewhat similar to the farmers alliance in the United States, The rebellion of the peasants is different from the furmers' movement inasmuch as it is princpally a protest against interference in political affairs on the part of the clergy. It is ex- pected in view of this change on the part of the parties the governwent will have a dif cult task o carry its measuves, Vienna Anareiist The authorities of Vienna are doing every possible thing to get to the bottom of tho recent anarchistie plot which threatened to destroy the House of Purliament, together with a number of the most prominent build- 1es on the Ringstrasse. The police now claim the Czechs were also implicated in the recent anarchist movement. They make this assertion ou the ground that a number of Czech pamphlets hay found during the early morniy throwa about the streets of the capital, with the regulur bloodihirsty literaturo alrcady reported to have been found thickly strewn through the streets of Vieuna. In addition a larger number of Czech pawmphlets have been found iu the offices of the editors of a Czech newspuper publishea here, as well as in the oftice of the socialist paper entitled Teukunft.

PLAIN TALK INDULGED ON THE FLOOK Mr, Rosews er Calls Public Attentlon to g by Which it Was Hoped to pture the Meoting—The Delog Job tos, Douglas county vesterday refused to fol- low the example set by Dodge county three weeks ago in endorsing a straw man for sue preme Judge in order to play into the handg of the combined corporation and boodle ring forces, that have conspired to overtbrow Judge Maxwell, The convention took two votes, consider- ing the advisabitit of endorsing either Max- well or Weoster's dumimy, C. N. Powell, and declined to instruct the delogation for anys one, finally selecting a mixed delegation to the state convention and allowing it to go unhampered. 1t is bolieved that the delegas ton, consisting of 108 men, contains a slight mijority of anti-Maxwetl men, the Maxwell side numbering between forty and ffty. The convention hall was crowded, the gullerics and all the vacant space in the of the delegates' seats being early vacked with railvoad sympathizers, A number of them even mixed with the deler gates on the floor, and any number of thems voted with the anti-Maxwellites on every viva voce vote. A number of candidates for city and county ofices were present, where they were completely overshadowed by the crowd of strikers marshaled for the occas sion by the corporation bosses. The great futerest taken in the contest by the Burlington was everywhere manifest by the presence and activity of the representa- uves of that road, even Gieneral Manager Holdreze being uptown to personally over- sce what was being done. He did not ape pear at the sntion hall, but took & station ata convenient point on Sixteenth strect near Purnam, where he was kept ine formed by weuns of a three minute messer~ ger bulletin service of all that was happes. ing in the convention. ‘The setback the anti-Maxwell men res ceived at the primaries did not discourage them or preventa continuation of the work of proselyting yesterday morning.

The convention was called to order in Washington hall shortly after 2:15 o'clock Lerday afternoon, ie feeling of uncertainty that prevailed was tho only certain thing in connection with the assembluge as the delegates sottled in their seats when Chairman A, S.
