TRIBUTE TO LAsKER.

BERLIN, March I'm the Reichstag to-day,
after the president had been reelected, that
functionary announced the death of Lasker,
and other members during the recess. The
deputies remained standing while the an
nouncement was being made. Rickert, in
dependent, speaking, as he explained, in the
order of the day, expressed thanks in the
name of Lasker's friends, for the many tokens
of sympathy received. He was particularly
grateful to the American congress for its ac-
ton in the house of representatives. The
president informed Rickert he was departing
from the order Of the day. Hammerstein, on
behalf of the conservatives, protested against
the action of Rickert, and against the course
pursued by the American congress. DR.
Haenel progressionist, admitted that Rickert.
has passed outside the order of the day, but
pointed out that this only showed the defect
in the usages of the house. He referred to
Ricketts, praise of the American congress,
whereupon the president reminded him, that
he too was departing from the order of the
day, but he continued to speak. He said he
had, perhaps, broken the rules, but he con-
sidered he was justified and pleaded extenu-
ating circumstances. when a body like
congress-" he said, ''adopt fattering resolu
tions we should pay as much regard to them
as is con nsonant with parliamentary usages."
Raron Won Maltzen contended that the rules
of the house offered no grounds for
statement like Ricketts,, or for any
reference to the resolution of a foreign
parliament, not officially communicated to
the Reichstag. He insisted that the rights of
the house should be upheld. There was no
defect in the rules of the house, but there
was in the manners of the house, as was
clearly proven by the fact that the left at
tempted to cry down Hammerstein's protest.
Rickert exclaimed, that the left had inter
rupted Hammerstein, because contrary to the
rules of the house, he had read his state
ment The left, he declared, cared as little
for Hammerstein's protest as they did for
the uniustifable interference of Bismarck
This declaration was followed by a great up
roar. As soon as order was restored Won
Batticher, imperial secretary Of the interior,
and representative Chancellor, said he knew
absolutely nothing of any interference
on the part of Bismarck. If the latter was
requested to inform the reichstag of the res
olutions adopted by the American congress,
and did what he deemed right in the matter,
his action was not subject to criticism. He
concluded by protesting against any criti-
cism of Bismarck. DR.. Brown stated, the
rules of the reichstag were based upon those
of the Prussian landstag, in which the eulog-
istic speech ON the death of Richard Golden,
was ruled out of order. Richter replying to
Won Botticher, maintain that the deputies
have perfect right to criticise the official
acts of the chancellor. DR.. Miller, progress
ist, began speech, by directing the atten-
ton of the banner hanging in the hall, which
had been presented to the reichstag by Ger
man-Americans, but he was at once called
to order by the president and the discussion
closed.
Rickert, before the opening of the reichs-
tag, informed different groups of the speech
he intended to make. He said the speech
had been drawn up after consultation with
the leader of the new party. The members
of the center promised not to intervene, but
the Conservatives protest against his making
the speech 1t is generally regretted that
Lasker's name was the subject of stormy
discussion. The conduct of the president of
the reichstag is generally commended.
