What Was Done With the EaAl Africa Bill.
Bismarck's speecs

BERLIN y an 70 Alter DISCUSSION in
the rescnstag to-day the Eat African
bin was referred to the committee of
twenty-one of the membeh under
urgency. The measure viii be feported
and read a second time, 81 Tues
day. Interest in to-day's de-
bate conferred in the speech of
Prince Bismarck, which was delivei :,
ed with unusual animation, an easy flow
OF words, fewer pauses than usual, and
unmistakable earnestness. The chanceI-
lor spoke with reference TO the allusion of
Herr Bamberger and Dr. Windthorst,
| making him responsible for everything
happening in East Africa He said he
could not undertake to be responsible for
everything and that something must be
be left TO the officials sent there to settle
affairs. He then continued:
BISMARCK IS SPEECH.
81 will tell the reiehstag honestly how

| plies only TO the immediate and more
| pressing requirements. The first speaker
! touched upon the question of the posi-
ton we take up toward foreign powers.
On that point l can only say that we have
proceeded and shall ever proceed solely
i'll the agreement with England, the
greatest colonial power i'll the world
| deny, therefore, emphatically, the sug-
gestiOn that we have any intention to
proceed against the sultan of Zanzibar in
opposition to the wishes of England in
Zanzibar; also in Samoa we are in the
fullest

; CCheers.] We are absolutely resolved to
be one with the English government and
to uphold the unity we have shared with
the English i'll Africa fCheers. The
only unpleasantnesS that has arisen has
been with subordinate officials, for whom
the government neither cares nor will be
responsible. We cannot discuss the
question whether EngliShmen do
exactly the same in their divi-
sion of Africa as we do in ours.
1t has never occurred to us that we
should ask England forassistance i'll our
own sphere OF power. sSuch a thing is
beyond the range of possibility. can
not recognize necessity for the discussion
of this bill in committee. could just as
well say to a full house what / might
have to say to such a committee. En-
gland on this question is not only money,
but blood gained. Besides, we have no
information that could be gwen to the
committee about
THE DETAILS OF OUR PLANS
forced to be enrolled, and their arms
and ammunitions-fo fear of making
our foes acquainted with them. The
measures taken hitherto have so thor
oughly stood test as to justify us in the |
future in building on them. The block
ade has less of military than of po4iti- |
cal significance The chief thing was TO
prove to the natives the unity existing |
between Germany and England anu |
also to show the European pow |
ers that the concert was complete. |
II rivalry exists, neither of the two pow |
ers will have special halo of prestige. |
We have concluded no treaties with En- |
gland, but can regard her as an old his |
toric ally with whom we have been in |
league for 80 years, even on colonial |
questions. -
The chancellor next adverted to criti-
cisms of Herr Bamberger, taunting him
with his
CHANGE OF COLONIAL POLICY.
Re read passages from speeches made in
1855, and admitted that he had departed
from opinions then expressed. but his
present action was dictated solely by the
immediate circumstances. f'For the sake
of 2 900 900 marks, he continued, 81
cannot throw myself against the great
impulse of the nation or offer opposition
to the will of the whole country To
this day 1 am not a colonial man.
: After DR.. Windthorst s speech - con-
tinued Prince Bismarck, 81 consider the
assent of the re chstag certain, but l
should like the proceedings expedited,
because we might have reason to regret
delay within even four or five days
He resumed his seat amid loud cheers.
