The Anti.soeia,ist Biii in the Reich

fBy Anglo American cable 10 the Dispstch.l
BERLIN. January 27.-The debate on
the an.i-Socialist bill WAS commenced IN
the Reichstag to-day. The Socialist
deputies circulated letter among the
members from Captain Fischer. OF the
Zunich police, in which he confirms the
statement that Schroeder and Haupt,
who were arrested in Switzerland rs An
archists, declared themselves to be
agents OF the Berlin police. Herr Won
Puttlamer, president Of the Council
and Minister OF the Interior, in referring
TO the letter. said he would request Bis
marck to take diplomatic steps against
this unheard-of proceeding on the part
of tho Swiss authorities. Owing to ex-
listing laws, he said, Germany had been
spared disorders from which other conn
tries had suffered. Outrages had been
prevented the press had been kept
within bonds, and the social dem
ocratic propaganda had been checked.
The Socialists had attempted to over
throw all existing institutions, and
could not, therefore, claim to be treated
under the common law. Exceptional
legislation was required in order to pro-
tect the State against the terrors OF an
unfettered social democracy. Such le-
gislation was not inhuman. On the con-
trary. the Reichstag, by passing this bill,
would be acting in the cause OF hui
mauity.''

pose of inspecting the works and ascer-
tanning their capability to make boilers
