BERLIN, July 2.-The greatest dip!o-
matte triumph of Prince Bismarck's life
will be achieved if he succeeds in his latest
project, which is to arrange a meeting be-
tween the car, Emperor Francis Joseph
and Emperor William in Berlin. News of
the cars assent to the proposition that he
should visit the German court on August
%. was received at the foreign Office on
Monday, causing the greatest satisfaction.
Prince Bismarck Immediately commune
Gated with Count Kalnoky, calling his
attention to the opportunity presented by
the nearly coincident visits of the car
and Emperor Francis Joseph and
proposing that an interview be
held between the three monarchs as
we'll as conferences between himself, Count
kalnoky and NJ. De Giers, the object be-
ing to dissipate all misunderstanding
Count kalnoky 1t is stated, has placed
himself in BiSmarcks hands but refuses
to make any overtures to the car regard
ing meeting with Emperor Francis Jo-
seph. If Prince Bismarck persuades the
car to consent to the interview the Aus
trian emperor will postpone his coming
till the 18th. He will not be present when
Emperor William receives the car, but
will 20 to Kiel for the naval review, re-
turning afterwards to Potsdam where it
is intended the emperors shall meet. The
chancellor will return here on the 18th and
remain throughout the visits Of the car and
Emperor Francis Joseph. He IS supposed

Involving Russia in the Central European
league, but only to establish better rela-
tions between the three emperors and balk
French negotiations for an offensive and
defensive alliance with Russia. He has Il

increased hatred of the anarchists.
Recent communication with St Peters
burg regarding the plotting of refugees in
Switzerland leading to a common pressure
upon the Swiss government afford basis
for concerted action by the three powers
against socialists, anarchists and nihlists.
A definite understanding in this sphere of
action would tend TO modify existing
enmity.
Prince Bismarck chances of arranging
an interview have been strengthened by
the Russian ambassador, but everything
depends upon the mood of the car. Semi
official advices from st. Petersburg say
the car. who has frequently altered his
Intentions regarding the return of the visit
of Emperor William, has now asseuted
under the persistent entreaties of NJ. VeSh-
nigradski and NJ. De Giers. Since the
Borki accident the car has morbid dread
of a railway journey, even with the entire
route guarded 10y select troops.
He will be accompanied to Berlin by the
empress and the whole imperial family.
The party will proceed to Copenhagen at
ter leaving Berlin. Russian papers, how
ever. do not believe that the Cars assent
will be obtained by Prince Bismarck even
though backed by NJ. De Giers.

haven this morning. an immense crowd
including hosts of visitors were assembled
TO greet the emperor. His ma jesty is

ately upon landing he sent telegram to
tho empress, who, accompanied by
her four sons, left kissingen

haven. Their maJesties will remain there
until Wednesday, when the emperor will
leave Tor England. Within an hour after
his arrival the emperor directed the adj
lsiralty to report on the arrest of officials
i'll connection with naval frauds Today's
talk IN official circles represents the en-
peror az furious. He is said to have sent
telegram after telegram 10 the highest
officials regarding the matter. Herr
Cremer, highly placed official
at hlel, is reported to have
committed suicide after his arrest. 1t is
stated he was found bleeding to death in
