THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, AUGUST 30, 1896. ENTERTAINING THE RULER OF RUSSIA Crowned Heads Pay All Due Homage to Czar and Czarina. DIPLOMATS ALSO BUSY. Francis Joseph of Austria Rather Cautious Not to Offend France. COLORLESS TOASTS AT VIENNA. Prince Bismarck Is to Be Visited Dur- ing the Exchange of Royal Courtesies. BERLIN, GerMANY, Aug. 29.—Although the Czar has conciuded his visit to Vienna and taken his de to Vienna, will remain i capital several days long nouncement of this fact is growth of a large crop of surmi negotiations of some kind are in p: between the Russi zn Minister and Goluchowski, the A b, ster of Foreign Affairs. Prince Lobanoff’'s con- ference with Prince Hohenlohe, the Im- perial Chancellor of Germany, has been fixed to take place at Breslau on Tuesday next, September 1, and at this meeting Freiherr M 8 stein, Ger- man Minister oreign Affairs, will also be present. Thus it will be seen that whatever German diplomacy means to effect in connection with the Czar’s visit to Germany, will be concluded before the | Kaiser receives the C at the Breslau station on the morning of September 5. Every hour of the time from the arrival of the Czar and Czarina at Breslau, till the Russian and German monarchs leave that city will be filled with ceremo- nials, receptions, banquets, etc. Among the high German officials whom the has ordered to be iu attendance upon the Russian Emperor and Empress are General von Lignitz, commander of the Brandenpurg army corps; General von Villaume, Colcnel von Moltke and Baron Heitze. On the morning of Sep- tember 7 the Russiar imperial party will go to Goerliwz to review the Posen corps of the German army, and on the evening of that day they will start for Kiel, where the German North Atlantic squadron has been ordered to concentrate and receive them. The programme of the Czar may be altered, however, if the report be true that the Czarina, under the advice of her icians, intends to abandon her tour | v band and return to St. Pe- tersburg to await her impending accouche- ment, leaving the Czar to continue his journey alone. If this report is confirmed the Kaiserin will not go to Breslau with the Kaiser, Though they have excited a ereat deal of public discussion very little importance is attached in official circles to the confer- ences which have taken place in Vienna between Count Goluchowski and Prince Lobanoff. It is known that Count Goluchowski has talked with Prince Loban- off of the possible consequences of the dis- turbances which have occurred in Con- stantinople and that the two Ministers have agreed that nothing ought to be done y any of the pewers which would disturb the serenity ol the concert of the powers which the Czar desired to have prolonged throughout hi uropean tour. In diplo- | matic circles there great deal of com- ment upon the cold and perfunctory terms of the toasts which were given at the court dinner in honor of the Czar at the Hofburg Palace in Vienna, as well as at the luncheon which was given at the Hofburg prior to the departure of the Russian imperial party to-day. The semi-official press of Vienna ex- plain the toasts given at the court dinner by saying that they were necessarily color- less, in view of the fact that the Austrian Emperor is a8 member of the Dreibund, while the Czar is an ally of France. Re- ferring to the old com Austria and Russia againsg have been extremely awk Czar upon the eve of his visit to Paris, | nence Emperor Francis Joseph only al. Inded to the Czar’s visit to Vienna as a pledge of the friendship existing between Austria and Russia. The Fremdenblatt of Vienna, in an arti- | cle in its ne cof to-day, imlm.ues as a | Ministers’ exchange of views that it is the aim of Austria, Germany and Russia to | continue to prevent a European confla- tion. Precisely as Russia had no de- to intervene in Armenia, so nothing | will be done now in the way of <“nterfer- | ence in Constantinople, the Europeans | there being sufficiently protected by the | warships of their respective countries. ccording to the Berlin Tageblatt the has expressed a wish to have an in- w with Prince Bismarck, and it is sible that his Majesty may arrange to t Friedrichsrube on his way to Kiel. ore going to Copenhegen the Uzar will | d two cays at the Schloss of Prince | pry of Prussia at Hemmelsmark, in leswig-Holstein, where he will meet tbe Grand Duke and Duchess of Hesse, the Grana Duke Sergius of Russia, Princess Louise of Battenberg and a number of others. : Tbe German Catholic Congress, which has been sitting at Dortmund, adjourned on Friday after a five days’ session. Be- cides affirming the principle of the tem- poral power of the Pontiff and expressing mpathy with the Pope the Congress de- ed at length the questions of an aggres- ive Agrarian policy and German colonial sion, tite Centrist members of the chstag who were present as delegates g prominent among the speakers ng both of these movements. he congress also approved a proposal submitted by the Centrists to introduce in t e Prussian Landtag an educational bill extending the clerical contrel of religious teaching in the schools.
