Berlin, July 21.-Emperor william attends ban
quet tonight at the German Embassy in ST. Peters
burg Only his staff, the members Of the Embassy
and a few German residents Will be present. To-
morrow the Gar and Czarina, the Russian Grand
Dukes and other members Of the Imperial family viii
lunch on board Of Emperor Williams yacht, the
Hohenzolern. The Emperor and his visitors will
afterward review the Russian and German squadrons
before Cronsadt and then return TO Peterhof for the
grand parting banquet. On Monday the German
squadron sails for Stockholm.
BIsMARCK's POLICY STILL UNCHANGED
Tho political results Of the EmperOrs visit TO the
Gar remain absolutely unknown. The disposition Of
official circles Is toward a disbelief that the inter
Views have determined anything. The Immediate
effect has been to lessen the strain of the relations
between the Berlin and ST. Petersburg foreign Offices,
but IL is noteworthy that while VI de Gers and Count
Herbert Bismarck exchange condolences at Petcrhof
g" The North German Gazette" and other inspired or
gans their attacks against the Russian spirit
OF aggression An article in The North
Panslavism as menace to the peace
of Europe worthy Of the warmest period of the
antl-Russian press campaign. 1t checked operations
the Boerse and caused slight fall in roubles
The obvious aim was TO show that the policy OF
Prince Bismarck is not changed by the courtesy Of
the visit of Emperor William TO the Car. q" The
Cologne Gazette also the interview as simply
a friendly manifestation toward the Car, implying
no deviation from German projects or sacrifice OF
German interests The Cross Gazette explicitly
denies that any special question has been resolved
at Peterhof that anything has been done affecting
existing treaties. Diplomatic circles arc convinced
to the same effect and regard the interview with
Indifference. Emperor Williams tour of the leading
courts of Europe certainly IN the interests of peace
for the time being prolonging as It does the period
of truce but It IS recognized as a purely social
function the new monarch paying his first visit TO
the heads OF States with whom he desires TO cultivate
amty.
