the excitement over his death was
intense.
A letter from Berlin, on the at
tempted assassination of Bismarck
by Kaufman, contains the follow
ing: The very first step which the
Government takes is to open an at
tack on the Catholic party and on
private dwellings. Christop Joseph
Cremer, editor of the Berlin Ger
mania, was searched by the police,
who confiscated letters, manuscripts,
and some pamphlets. The next
visit of the police, seven in number,
was to the house of the Legation,
Counsellor Van Keller, and Secre-
tary Mayance, of the Catholic Union.
Their booty was considerable, among
which was about eighty documents,
letters and circulars, with the names
of members of the society. On the
same evening, Herr Van Kehler's
work room was searched, and again
on the following morning. The
place. of meeting Of the German
members of the Gesslen Verein Jour
Wears spiritual counsellor, Muller,
father of atholic societies in Berlin,
were searched, and in these police
inquisitions then followed, by the
temporary closing of the Catholic
societies of Berlin on authority OF
the State. The members of the
Catholics Gesslen Union in Germa-
there are hundreds of other societies
such as Catholic Adult Societies,
Catholic Young Mems Societies,
University Societies, and societies of
women and of children.
The connection of Father Hautha-
Ter with the attempted assassination
is given as follows: He desired to
see Bismarck. He was in Schwein-
furth, and not having much money,
yet bent on seeing the Chancellor
before returning home, he paid a fly
ing visit to Kissengen. He arrived
at early morning, and since Bismarck
does not drive out until l o'clock, he
had some hours to spare, when he
spent walking up and down the
pavement, in front of the Princes
house. In his perambulations he
got into conversation with Kullman,
who said he was DESTROYS to see the
Prince, and they talked together at
intervals: AT last, by l o'clock, the
crowd grew larger, and Bismarck's
carriage was expected every moment.
Kullman stood on the pavement OPP
posite Bismarcks. Pastor Hauthler
found himself in what he thought a
bad position, on the other side of the
wagon. AS the Prince drove out of
the yard Hauthler, thinking he had
not moment to lose, and being eX-
ceedingly short-sighted, ran across
the road, but was slightly tripped up
in the middle of the road by his
long coat, and the Princes coach
man had to rein up suddenly to pre-
vent an accident. At this moment
the shot was fired. Hauthler knew
by intuition IN what critical posi-
ton he had placed himself, and
therefore his desire to get away as
quick as possible. When Hauthler
left the course the Justice accompa-
MED him as tar as the railroad depot
in order to prove to the outside
world the old mans innocence.
A number of prominent gentle
men offer prize of thousand tha-
lers for the best musical compost
ton, with or without words, on the
Chancellor. The competitors are to
send in their work before the I'd Of
September next.
A London letter says there are
ugly rumors buzzing about the mill
tary service clubs, to the effect that
official news from the Gold Coast is
of such a character that another ex-
petition to Ashantee is more than
probable. e.f.
