BERLIN, Oct. 6,-An official kilograms from
Fredcnsburg received at Potsdnm and tho
foreign office tonight say the car will start
for Berlin Tuesday next
The chief of the cars secret police passed
through Berlin to-day on his way 10 Kiel.
He is accompanied by the inspector of im.
porial trains. The czar's special train, once
owned by Empress Eugeue, lies at the sta
tion here, having como from Wirballcu.
There are swarms of Russian police hore at
kiel and at stations along the proposed route,
Russian troops line the rails from Wirballen
to Moscow. The precautions taken far
exceed those on the occasion of the former
visit of the car and are due to his intense
fears of an attempt upon his life. The
c2ariua leaves Copenhagen October IL for
konigsberg, reioiuing the car at some point
on the homeward Journey.
Under the pressing insistance of Count
SchouvaloG, the Russian ambassador to Ger.
many, the car will accord Prince Bismarck
tho desired interview.
AS soon as the promise of tho conference
was received the sumiofical press was in
structed te dony the statement that the gov
ornmert intended to apply TO the reichstag
for military credit of several hundred mill
lion marks.
Tonight the National Gazette turns upon
itself, declaring that no money demands of
any Importance We're ever contemplated by
the government. The statement that the
movements of Russian troops were threaten.
ing the safety of the frontier is likewise pro-
nounccd as exaggerated.
An uneasy feeiing appears to prevail in
Austrian official circles. 1t Is feared tho
chancellor is about to make a now move by
Offering to assist in restoring Russian DOM
nance in Bulgaria as an lnducement to draw
the czar from the French alliance.
The Vienna Frcmdenblatts article alvo.
eating the recognition of Ferdinand as
Prince of Bulgaria has been quoted by tho
North German Gazette without comment.
Other semi official papers leave German sup.
port doubtful, although the Vienna cabinet
is known to attach supreme Importance to
the question.
Prince Bismarck is suspected of playing a
double game. 1t is thought that on the ono
hand he will threaten the car with move-
ment looking to the firm establishment Of
Bulgarian independence. while on the other
hand he will offer an entente based on pro,
posal that Russia shall have u freer hand to
deal with Bulaaria aud intervene in Arnle-
mia. IL Is certain that If the car receives
Prince Bismarc:'s proposals with coldness,
the recognition of Ferdinand by the porte,
the powers forming the triple alliance,
and England will be tho immediate
sequence. The sultan has already agreed 10
recognize Ferdinand, and only awaits the
visit of Emperor William before issuing a
formal proclamation to that effect.
The Kreuz Zeitung to-day represented
Emperor Williams article in the Reichsau-
2eiger rebuking its attack on the cartel par
ties. The Zetung frankly adds that il as
sailed the national liberals because 1t was
convinced that the line Of the policy of the
cartel parties under the influence of the nil-
tional liberals was injurious to the states.
BY virtue of the spirit of loyalty that has
animated its criticisms it now bows
before the opinion Of the em-
peror The response OF the Kreuz
Zcitung, generally admitted to be dignitied
and well put, conceals its modification at
| finding that the emperor has unabated conf
| dence in the chaucelors international policy
| and that he is also ready to resent toadyism
| from the ultra conservatives. The weight
| of the imperial rebuke is enhanced by the an
! nouncement thai it was written by the ON
peror on his own initiative and without the
knowledge of Bismarck. All parties feel the
| importance of the utterance for the coming
! elections. 1t will help squash the ultra con-
servatves and enormously strengthen the
| united conservatives and national liberals.
| The news from Athens that fever is rag
| ing the populaco there and that several court
| officials are among the victims alarms the
| imperial circle. The emperor is due at
Athens on the 2Sth inst. Iii the epidemic
continues the marriage fetes will be cur
| tailed The present programme of three
| days fetes and review of %, 90 troops will
be reduced to quiet marriage ceremony.
The question of 2ollverein between Ger
many and Austria exercises the Vienna
newspapers, which argue that, the
| two nations have common foreign
| policy there is no good reason why they
| should not also have a common economic
| policy toward nations outside the dreibund.
| AS practical approach thereto the Neue
| Freie Presse hopes that Prince Bismarck
| will accord Austria IN future treaties Of
| commerce special concessions and abolish
| the most favored nation treatment now
| given to France
NJ. Herbette, the French ambassador, re-
! turned TO Berlin last evening. II ~ reported
that he will be replaced by Jules Ferry. In
| spite of some dsplcasing acts of Ferry whlo
| in power, bismarck is ready to accept him.
Princess Margaret, sister of tho emperor,
is betrothed to Prince William heir Of the
| duke of Nassau. Her mother favored the
suit of the crown prince of Denmark, while
! bismarck favored the prince of Nassau.
Lieutenant Fischer, with two batteries Of
artillery, has sailed from Hamburg TO rein
| force Captain Weissmann in east Africa.
The alarm over Captain Welssmann's posi-
tiOn increases He is threatened by large
| bodies of well armed Arabs and natives,
who are cutting off his supplies.
The preparations being made at Constan-
| tinOple for the reception of EN-
pcrOr William indicate a prolonged stay.
II is reported he viii remain two weeks
in the Turkish capital He will be accom-
panied by Count Herbert Bismarck. Tho
length of the emperor's visit is attributed TO
an intention 10 inquire into the condition Of
the Turkish army and to test the statement
| of the German officers that the porte is still
able 10 maintain standing army of 1000
| men.
