BERLIN, July o. new Iork f1erdlu CaOle
Special to THE BEE. Fine weather,
much self satisfaction with Russia's recep-
ton Of their kaiser, and the arrival of a
feeble imitation of Buffalo Bills Wild West
show, have combined to put the Berliners
in a good humor. The delicate attentions
paid by the car to the king of Prussia were
alone enough to set every last Prussian
g~rinning with delight. 1t pleased them
300 distinguished Russians paid $40
each freely to watch the kaiser arrive and
had enough enthusiasm left to spend a
thousand dollars in drinking to the prosper
ity Of Germany. There was increased salts
faction when on a single bill-fare Of twelve
courses they saw torture allemande, %stirlets

more delicate compliment to Ger.
man ambitions, asperge en- branches, sauce
Hollandaise. Finally their pride reached
it's highest pitch when the car, forced by the
ignorance Of one of his guests to speak
French instead of German at the table, gave
orders that all kilograms announcing his use
of French must be suppressed. In bourse
circles there has been no less satisfaction.
One great firm noted for its Russian relations
and accuracy of information, sold Russian
stocks freely and almost wildly early in the
week, while another noted firm is reputed to
not only have sold out its holdings, but
in addition to have sold largely for future de-
livery at prices much below the present
market. Meanwhile the rouble sinks only
slowly. All the Russian stocks show an un-
expected surprising steadiness.
Even on his travels the young emperor
watches public affairs, and to him is due, it
is said, the plan for German
izing Alsace-Lorraine. As uHolland is
being so successfully treated by
the appropriation of all great
land owners opposed TO German customs,
the land thus acquired would, as IN Prussian
Holland, be sold in small lots to German im
migrants. With the land owners 20 the
most intractable of their dependents, and the
remainder are quickly assimilated. French
money has in the last month been completely
expelled from the provinces.
Among the Berlin matters which the en-.
peror is reputed to have considered during
his journey is the construction of a new
home for the Prussian legislature. AS
planned, it would be in the war ministry's
garden, facing the new continuation Of Zim-
mer street, and in every way worthy of that
marvel of Berlin which the kaiser hopes to
leave behind him to his heir. This
heir is, by the way, now at Castle Oberhof
making mud pies and training his brothers te
be- soldiers. Even the smallest prince, still
In dresses, carries a rifle and knapsack, and is
expected to obey orders. Two troopers in full
uniform attend the crown prince as orderlies
and correct his military errors. On theil
way to Oberhof they gave the Berliners 6
chance to Judge of their training. At the
depot they stepped from their carriage il

head. AS the crowd cheered he called HAT.

Among the minor results of the Russian
trip there has been an amazed delight at tn,
ignorance displayed by the French press il
discussing it, and the credulity of the Eng
ish in copying the French errors. As an of

the Baron Kuhn scandal. Many Of III
older German officers shake their head
regrotfully at the dangerous lack of disc

disclosed. Even among the German pol
ticians there are some who think that tn
Kuhn episode is dangerous beyond its efreo
on the army.
