BERLIN, October 5.-Ofhcial kilograms
from Fredensbourg received at Potsdam and
the foreign Office tonight say that the Czar
will start for Berlin on Thursday next. Ac-
cording to the present programme, the Gar
will go to KieI, journeying thence by way
of Oldersloe and Schwarzbeck to Berlin.
This programme is subject to alteration.
M. Schirinkine, Chief of the Cars Secret
Police, passed through Berlin to-day on his
way to Kiel. He is accompanied by the In
spector of Imperial Tracings. The Cars
special train, once owned by the Empress
Eugene, lies at the station here, having
come from Wirballen. There are swarms of
Russian police here, at Kiel and at the
stations along the proposed route.
EVERY PRECAUTIoN TAKEN.
Russian troops line the rails from Wir-
ballen to Moscow. The precaution taken
far excells those on the occasion OF the for
mer visit of the Gar and are due to his in
tense fears of an attempt upon his life. The
Czarina leaves Copenhagen on October
for Konigsberg, rejoining the Car at some
point on the homeward journey. Only
Court Minister Worontzow Daschkof and
Aids de Camp Generals Teherairnd and
Richter will accompany the Gar.
Under the pressing insistance of Count
Schouvalof, the Russian Ambassador to
Germany, the Car will accord Prince Bis
marck the desired interview. As soon as
the promise of conference was received,
the semi-oficial press was instructed to deny
the statement that the Government in
tended to apply to the Reichstag for mill
tary credit of several hundred million
marks
Tonight the National Gazette turns upon
itself, declaring that no money demands of
any Importance were ever contemplated by
the Government. The statement that the
movements of Russian troops were threat
ening the safety of the frontier is likewise
pronounced exaggerated.
JUST A LITTLE VISIT.
The Gar will pass 4S hours between Pots
dam and Berlin. Nothing is expected to
result from his meeting with Prince Bis
marck. The Moscow newspapers ridicule
the idea that the Gar will accept any con-
ciliatory overtures unless they are well
backed BY solid concessions.
An uneasy feeling appears to prevail in
the Austrian official circle, it being feared
that the Chancellor is about to make new
move BY offering to assist in restoring Rus
sian dominance in Bulgaria as an induce
ment to draw the Gar from a French alli-
ance. The Vienna Fremdenbldtt's article
advocating the recognition of Ferdinand as
Prince of Bulgaria has been quoted by the
North German Gazette without comment.
Other semi-oficial papers believe German
support doubtful, although the Vienna Cab
met is known to attach supreme Importance
to the question. Prince Bismarck is sus-
pected of playing a double game 1t is
thought that on the one hand he will
threaten the Gar with movement looking
to firm establishment of Bulgarian inde-
pendence, while, on the other hand, he will
offer an entente, based on a proposal that
Russia shall have a freer hand to deal with
Bulgaria and intervene Armenia.
THE CHANCELLoR's PLANS.
It is certain that if the Car refuses Prince
Bismarck's proposals with coldness, recog-
milton of Ferdinand by the Porte, the
powers forming the triple alliance and En-
gland, will be the immediate sequence. The
Sultan has already agreed to recognize
Ferdinand, and only awaits the visit of
Emperor William before issuing a formal
proclamation to that effect.
The Kreuz Zeitung to-day reproduced
Emperor Williams article in the Reichs-
zdnger rebuking the attack on the Cartel
parties. The ZeituRg frankly adds that it
assailed the National Liberals because con-
WINGED that that line of policy of the Cartel
parties, under the influence of the National.
Liberals, was injurious to the state and by
virtue of the spirit of loyalty that has ami
mated its criticisms it now bows before the
opinion Of the Emperor.
The response of the Kreuz Zeituno is gen.
orally admitted to be dignifed and well
put, and conceals its modification at finding
that the Emperor has unabated confidence
in the Chancellor's international policy. and
that he is also ready to resent toadyism from
the ultra-Conservatives.
AN IMPERIAL REBUKE.
The weight of the Imperial rebuke is en-.
HANGED by the announcement that il was
written by the Emperor solely on his own
initiative, and without the knowledge of
Prince Bismarck. All parties feel the I'M
portance of the utterance for the coming
elections. 1t will help squash the ultra.
Conservatives and enormously strengthen
the United Conservatives and National Lib
erals.
aging the pOpulace there, and that several
court officials are among the victims, alarms
the imperial circle. The Emperor is due at
Athens on the 2Sth inst. If the epidemic
continues the marriage fetes will be cur-
tailed. The present programme of three
DAYS fetes and a review of %. 600 troons
will be reduced to quiet marriage cere-
mony.
The preparations that are being made at
Constantinople for the reception of EN-
peror William indicate prolonged stay.
1t is reported that he will remain two weeks
at the Turkish capital. He will be accom-
panied by Count Herbert Bismarck. THE
length OF the Emperor's visit is attributed
TO an intention to inquire into the condition
of the Turkish army, and to test the state.

still able to maintain a standing army of
400, 600 men.
FERRY FOR MINISTER.

ported that he will be replaced by Jules
Ferry. In spite of some displeasing acts of
Ferry while In power, Bismarck is ready to
accept him.
