BERLIN, Sept. 14.-Considerable attention is
drawn to article in the Gren-boten which
ls supposed to be an exponent of Prince Bismarck's
views, wherein the writer who says he is German nv

vehcmeny attacks the Hebrews. The writer saws the
reproach evelled against Prince Bismarck that he is
going to Canossa" is raised simply Hebrew jour-
na'sts or by those imbued with Hebrew ideas. The
article concludes by approving the auti-Scmc agita-
lion, for which, it the Hebrews and their friends
who brought the original dispute before the public are
solely responsible
