Government Himself.
NEW YORK, Nov. PA special dispatch
from Berlin says that the public mind there
is disturbed, in view of the diplomatic atti-
tude assumed by Germany toward France.
Bismarck privately advocates a continuance
of the system of military preparation for
war. The recent action of the Reichstag
in prolonging the military budget on the
war estimate contemplates speedy re-occG-
patton of the French departments by the
Germans. Bismarck advocates this move
ment for the reason that he sees that the
tenure of authority by the Thiers govern
ment is very precarious.
