ordinary expenses amount to %, 900. 900 FORMS
of which LOCO, 900 are for the army and co.,

states that, though all the European Cabinets
nevertheless imperatively indicate that an in-
crease Ia Austria Hungarys defensss is the
surest safe guard Of peace.
Herr Won Tisza, the Hungarian Prime Min
lister. thanking the members Of delegations to-
dav for their patriotism. said they would know
how to find the boundary between exposing the
development of the strength Of thu army and
overestimating the strength OF the nation. In
the present. situation . peaceful alliance be-
tween the powers forms the only guarantee of
peace. The empires cautious policy Is to avoid
attacks and conflicts. Nevertheless defensive
measures are necessary. II would be erroneous
to conclude from recent isolated incidents that
the empire, In the e@ent OF an emergency, is
not capable of harmoniously developing its er-
tire strength. Herr Won Tiszas remarks were
greeted with loud applause.

Won Puttk.mer,s Fall.

copyright. 1885. by the New York Associated Press
BERLIN. June 9-The fall Of Herr Won Putt
kamer, Vice-president Of the Prussian Minis
terial Council and Prussan Minister of the In
terror. has caused immense jubilation in the
radical camp. Herr Richter in the Freissinge.
ascribes his downfall directly to his speech In
the Landtae and closes an exultant article
with the exclamation: "Long live the Kaiser;
may God preserve his strength. If he
does SO, many other things in
Prussia and Prussia, also. will improve
The satisfaction which the government party
derive from the Kaiser's yielding to Prince Bis
marcks representation that it would never do
by vetoing the quinquennial parliament bill, to
furnish the Radical opposition pretext to boast
that the Kaiser had sided with it against his
own 'cabinet and the Conservative majority, 10
dampsnsd by the prospect of an imperial re-
script The Cologne Gazette and other
government organs daily urge the
Emperor against doing anything like
the Emperor, aud the latter's decision to part
with him betokens his dissemination to impart
to his reign the stamp Of his own independent
convictions. Herr Won Puttkamer's latter Of
justification treated the matter as per-
soaal one. 1t was not submitted to the
Cabinet. The Kaiser's reply intimated
that Herr Won Puttkamer had failed TO
convince him. Prince Bismarck visited Herr
Won Puttkamer to-day. but not the Emperor.
so nothing is yet decided regarding Herr Won
Puttk amer's successor. The National Liberals
want Herr MIGUEL. Mayor OF Frankfort, or Herr
Won Benningsen. preferably the former TO sue
coed him. The Radicals desire Herr Winter,
Mayor Of Dantzig. Neither party is hopeful
that the Emperor will go so far to the Left in
his choice. and IL is doubtful whether any
leader would accept the position in the present
uncertain state of affairs.
