BERLIN, July 2l.-Emperor William
banuuets tonight at the German embassy
in st. Petersburg. Only his staff, the
members OF the embassy and few Ger
man residents will be present. Tomorrow
the Car and the Czarina, the Russian
grand dukes and other members OF the
imperial family will lunch on board OF
Emperor Williams yacht, the Hohenzol-
lern. The Emperor and his visitors Will
afterwards review the Russian and Ger
man squadrons before Cronstadt and then
return to Petcrhof for the grand parting
banquet. On Monday the German squad
ron sails for Stockholm.
The political results of the Emperors
visit to the Car remain absolutely I'M
known. The disposition Of imperial cir
cles 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 1t Is
noteworthy that while Nj. DeGicrs and
Count Herbert Bitmarck exchanges conf
dences at Peterhof, the North German Ga
,eife and other inspired organs renew their
attacks against the Russian spirit oil ag'
gression.
on Thursday denouncing Pan Slayism as
Il menace TO the peace oil Europe was
worthy Of the warmest period oil the anu
Russian press campaign. IL checked OPP
erations ON the bourse and caused slight
fall in roubles. The obvious aim was to
show tl.at the 30 Icy OF Prince Bismarck
is not changed by the courtesy OF the visit
OF Emberor William 10 the Gar.
The Cologne Gdsrte also treats the inter
view Us simply manifestation toward the
Car, implying no deviation from German
projects or q sacrifice OF German interests.
The Cross Gazette explicitly denies that
any special question has been solved nj
Petcrhof OF that anything has been done
affecting existing treaties. Diplomatic
circles are convinced to the same elect
and regard the interview with indiiier-
encc. Emperor Williams tour OF the
leading courts Of Europe is certainly In
the interests Of peace for the time being,
prolonging ~ il does the period OF truce;
but il is now recognized as purely So
cial function, the new monarch paying his
/ first visit 10 the heads OF States with
whom he desires TO cultivate amity.
Tho foreign press gets absurd rumor
that France is 10 be oyerpowered and dis
armed; that the Car joins the central
) alliance; that a congress will revise the
Berlin treaty; that the Emperors have
agreed 10 combine 10 uproot anarchists
whether German socialists or Russian
nihilists, and so forth. All alike are iic
tions. The French papers are especially
excited over the rumor that France is &
be disarmed, associated rs II is with an in
/. crease Of military activities in AlSace- lIor
!, | raine.
The movement Of troops from the in
: terror toward the frontier, and the rein
u forcing Of the gairisons Mt Strasburg an'
Metz are regarded "a suggestive OF
! scheme 10 surprise France. The real oh
: iect Of these movements Is 20 prepare 10
a extensive maneuvers around Metz durinI
the Empcror's visit TO Alsace- Lorrain
about the middle Of August. The maneu
vers will certainly be on n gigantic scale
v engaging 10000 troops, and will be
u significant demonstration for Frcncl
I. chauyinism 20 ponder over. They shoul
:. also tend to help the malcontents 10 accer

many ~ Inevitable.
The Emperor's projected meeting wit
u King Ilumbcrt Is definitely fixed for %
IA tober under the iustigaiion OF Prime Mir
islcr Crispi. King lIumbcrt has aske
the Emperor 20 visit Rome, and the latte
~ has asscnted. The Pope being apprised
~ this fact has sent n vigorous protest
y Prince Bismarck, declaring that the En-
peror's presence at Rome would be an ~
of hostility toward the Vatican, especial
during the pending crisis with the Italia
government. Cardinal Rampolla, the p,
~ pal secretary Of state, has also sent circl
y lars 10 the nunciOs To Bavaria and Austr!l
asking them 10 use their influence wit
ng those governments 10 induce them 30 n
ng wise Emperor William that his intoryie
ho with King Humbcrt must be at plat
