GERMAN AFFAIRS

They are Getting Badly Tangled up Again.
BERLIN, June 2.-No sooner has EN-
peror Frederick seemed assured of some
proIongatiOn of life than the influences
host lie to Prince Bismarck display re-
newed activity. The conflict between
the liberal tendencies of the emperor
and the chancelior's policy, which has
been latent, since the outset of
the reign now threatens to end in open
rupture. The EN- peror is swayed
by the opinion of the empress, who has
resumed the active domain she secured
during the illness of the emperor at San
Reno. Prince Bismarck had warning of
coming troubles last week in a communi
cation from the emperor, blaming Minis
ter Won Puttkamer for abus-
ing government influence at elections.
Prince Bismarck returned from Varzin
and in an interview found the emperor
DESTROYS of reconstructiLg the ministry
and also opposed giving assent to The
quinquennial landtag bill. Under the ad-
wee of DR.. Friedberg the emperor
signed the BILL at the same time advising
Bismarck that be hoped this concession
would be followed by reforms in the
ministry. When Bismarck left the en-
peror on Thursday the crisis appeared to
have been settled. o-day it trans pired
that Bismarck had been consulting his
colleagues on the order of the
emperor's postpOnement of the pub
l1cation of the law. It was
reported that the emperor had cancelled
his signature. The report, however, is
unconfrmed. The ministerial circle fear
the worst. the progressists re-
joice at the prospect of the
advent of the liberal regime.
The crisis has not yet reached the
and until Prince Bismarck has again con-
suited the EN- peror the issue of the con
fict is doubtful, but the situation is
grave enough to cause profound uneas1-
ness.

BERLIN. June 2.-Owing probably to

SaAoh ""' III hepOfI IL tayOrably.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-The senate con-
mittee on judiciary to day further con-
sidered the nomination of Mr.. FulIar To
be chief Justice, but did not reach cor.
clusion. Another meeting will be held to-
day or tomorrow. There seems to be no
doubt that the committee will favorablv
report the nomination. The delay Is said
to be due rather to the fear that the CON-
mittee will be accused of haste and
want of thoroughness if it negIects
to examine and weigh all that is
said before it than 20 any special matters
which have been charged against the
nominee. A certain Chicago man has
oeen writing persistently asking for q
delay to give him time to put certain
things IN shape for the presentation 70
the committee, and he has been accorded
time.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-The senate com
mittee of Judiciary investigation failed
again to reach conclusion in regard 70
the nomination of Melville W. Fuller TO
be chief Justice. It is understood that
further information is awaited, The
most serious Of the charges made against
Mr.. Fuller, are those from DunIevey, of
Chicago. They allege that the clerk of
the court and Mr.. Fuller were Jury COM
missioners in 81 and that Fuller drew
the jury before which case in which ne
himself was heavily interested was tried,
The result, according to Dunlevey, was a
verdict for Fuller and the consequence
was the recovery of large and valuable
tract of swamp land. The committee
has telegraphed for transcript of the
records aud will await its receipt

When their Jacks or American Beau les

spices on top. AS each admirer lays
roses upon the altar of beauty
they add to the stack in the jar,
and always with each relay add
