BERLIN, July 27-The greatest diplomatic
triumph of Prince Bsmarck's life will bo
achieved if he succeeds in his latest project,
which is to arrange meeting between the
car, Emperor Francis Joseph and Emperor
William in Berlin. The news of
the cars assent to the pro-
posal that he shall visit the court on August
%. was received at the foreign Office Mon
day, causing the greatest satisfaction. Bis
marck immediately communicated with
Count Kalnolty, calling attention to the
opportunity presented by the nearly coin
cident visits of the car and Emperor
Francis Joseph and proposing that an inter
view be held between the three monarchs as
well us con Inference between HIMSELF Count
Kalnoky and NJ DeGiers, the object being to
dissipate all msundet standings. The officials
here have been instructed to maintain abso-
Lutte silence. The semi-otflciul press has
been similarly directed ON the ground that
criticism might alter the present favorable
disposition of the car Official circles in
Vienna are less observant Of secresy, and
discuss the chances Of the interview.
Count Kalnoky it is stated, has placed
himself in Bsmarck's hands. but refuses to
make any overtures to the iczar
regarding the meeting with Emperor. .Frap-f
els Joseph. II Prince Bismarck persusSH
the car to consent to the interview, the Aus
trinn emperor will postpone his coming until
the 18th.
The chancellor will return here on the 12th
and remain throughout the visits of the caar
and Emperor Francis Joseph. He
Ia supposed to be aiming not at
a definite treaty of alliance involv-
ing Russia in Central European
league, hut ouly to re-establish better rcla-
tions between the three empires and baulk
the French negotiations for an offensive and
defensive alliance with Russia. He has
foothold for renewed entente cordiale in
the czar's increased hatred for the anarch.
lists. The recent communications with st.
Petersburg regarding the plotting of
refugees in Switzerland leading 10 a common
pressure upon the Swiss government
afforded basis for concerted action by
the three powers against the socialists an
| archists and nihilsts. definite UNDER
standing as to this sphere of action would
tend to modify the existing enmiues.
The Kreuz Zeitung has semi official ad-
vices from ST. Petersburg saying: "Pho
czar, who has frequently altered his inten-
tions regarding the return of the visit of
Emperor William, has now assented under
the persistent entrcuties of M. DeGiers and
M. Vischnegradski. He will be accompanied
to Berlin by the empress and the whole inn
perial family. The party will proceed To
Copenhagen after leaving Berlin"
The Novoe Vremya declares the car goes
to Berlin simply as an act of courtesy, and
that his visit will have no bearing upon tho
European situation unless Germany changes
her policy by consenting to satisfy tho
| legitimate aspirations of Russia.
Emperor William arrived atWillaInshavcn
this morning. Soon after he ordered the
admiralty to report on the arrest
of officials in connection with the naval
frauds. Several officials left Keil tonight
for WIlhelmshaven. The papers are
obliged to maintain reserve and only record
the fact that the arrests extend 10 con.
tractors and marine officials at Dantzig.
Hamburg, Stettin. Wilhelmshaven and Ber-
lin. The position of the persons arrested
and the wide ramfcations of the frauds
have sent thrill of Indignation
| and shame throughout the empire. To-
days talk in official circles rep
resents the emperor as furious. He
is said to have sent telegram
after telegram to The highest officials regard
ing the matter Herr Cremer, highly
placed official at Keel, is reported TO have
committed suicide after his arrest. II is
stated that he was found bleeding to death
in his cell, having opened the veins in hin
arm, and that he died while being taken TO
the hospital. The Freissignee Zeitung an
nouuces the arrest of the chief comptroller Of
the Kirl workshops, and of prominent mer-
chant of Mineer, who for many years has

The severity of the sentence pronounced
on the forty-eight miners convicted ~ Bres-
lau, for rioting during the recent striko
there, will probably lead TO an appeal to the
emperor The prisoners are all under
twenty years of age, and Il number OF them
are not more than sixteen years old.
The article in the North German Gazette
on the strikes shows an ominous change OF
front on the part of the government toward
the miners. The semoffca newspapers
concur IN predicting that the result OF tho
commission OF inquiry into the miners'
grievances will be nil ana that the govern
ment will cease to interfere beyond sup
pressing breaches Of law.
