BERLIN, January 26. Prince Bis
marck to-day, in the debate in the Prus-
sian Laudtag on the expulsion Of the
Poles from Germany, made remarka-
Bile speech, occupying two hours in do
livery. He said the primary cause Of
the governments action was the disloy-
atty Of the Poles TO the German Grown,
They were, he said, constantly engaged
in intrigues against the government, and
had made the most steady annoyance to
Prussia by acting as accomplices Of the
opposition In tho German Parliament.
They effected majority against the
government, and the Crown could do
nothing else than deny the demands Of
such majority or destroy the evil ele-
ment which made the majority possible.
The Polish agitation in Germany. Bis
marck said, always appeared to him an
element Of danger, and had compelled
him to keep his eyes upon Russia. The
Poles had been constantly, and not
always unsuccessfnlly, endeayQring to
set foreign States against Prussia.
'fHenoe, continued the Chancellor, Eve
have determined to buy out the real es-
.ate owned by Polish mobiles in Russian
Poland and place German colonists ON
the land hitherto occupied by the ex
PEELED people. In order to make
the colonization inure permanently
to the benefit Of the empire colopists are
to be prohibited from marrying Poles.
The cost Of the undertaking will be
about three hundred million marks
about SO, ,000, 900. But the State will
lose only about ten per cent. Of this
loss made necessary by the exigencies Of
the case Of buying out the alien class
and reseIling to Germans, while the
gain to the empire will be unmeasura-
Bile. 'sThe government" said the Chan
eeIler with great animation, twill never
coneede the restoration Of Poland, nor
hairs breadth In that direction. The
Poles played suspicious part In kul-
turcamf. Whos0eyer refuses to help
protect and maintain shall not be enti-
tied to calm anything from the State.

frontier / shall say, like Gladstone,
s'hands of. Referring to the insinua-
tion that the governments religious
prejudices had great influence in
its treatment of the Poles, Bis
marck said ''Religion is in no
ways connected with their expulsion.
As the policy of kindness failed, it be-
comes necessary to reduce the Polish
element in Germany and increase the
German element. This is the real reason
for their expulsion. and the government
has determined to persist in this work
despite the opposition OF the Reiehstag.
In conclusion will say that before al
lowing Fatherland TO be endangered,
1 would counsel the Emperor to make
the federal government independent of
the obstructionists now in the Reichstag.
so far as the constitution and laws Of
Germany would permit. For | would
hold any minister to be coward who
should hesitate to stake everything to
save his Fatherland from danger"
The Ohancellor's speech Is the general
topic Of conversation in the capital TO-
night. 1t ia generally conceded that
the speech is equally capable Of being
interpreted to foreshadow either dis
solution Of the Reichstag or a coup
