BERLIN. Sept. 21.-The emperor will re-
turn to Potsdam tomorrow. Prince Bis
marck will come to Berlin on Wednesday.
Count Herbert Bismarck, all the cabinet
ministers and General Won Schwenitz, the
German ambassador to Russia, are sum-
moned to a meeting on Thursday. The as
sembling is due to the czar's coming visit,
for which definite arrangements are to be
made.
The Keller Zeltung announces that the
Russian yachts Dergava and Czarevena, cou
veying the czar, are timed to reach Kiel on
the morning of the 27th inst. If Bismarck's
plans are effected, instead of short and un-
cermonious visit the czar will be treated to a
number of court banquets and a diplomatic
dinner. The absence of DeGiers, the Rus
sian foreign minister, indicates that the czar
is determined to refuse Prince Blsmarck's
political conference.
All the Russian papers agree that the ex-
ceptionally friendly treatment of the czaro-
witch during his visit to Germany, and the
courtesies offered the czas, do not affect the
relations between the two countries. The
czar's personal feelings towards the emperor
have recently been excited by an incident
arising from his (the czar's) comforting the
order of st. Stanislaus ON Bulgarian,
Major Grueff, who kidnapped Prince Alex
ander, of Battenoerg, and who Is now a
Russian pensoner. The emperor, at mill
tary dinner, IN the course of conversation,
expressed wonder that the DECORATION should
have been given to traitotous soldier.
Three Prussian officers who wore the dec
Grafton of the order Of St. Stanislaus heard
the emperor's words. They forthwith re-
turned the insignia to ST. Petersburg with a
collectively signed protest, stating they could
not wear an order that had been given to o
mutineer. The czar's exasperation was so
intense that he demanded, through Count
Schouvaloff, the Russian ambassador here
the punishment of the officers. The en-
peror placed them under arrest for un-
authorized correspondence with a foreign
government, but after two days he ordered
their release.
The man9uvres at Hanover terminated
to-day. The Post publishes report of the
man9uvres whish is conclusive as to the ne
cessty of smokeless powder henceforth for
both the artillery and the infantry. The
corps using smokeless powder got within 200
yards of the enemy without the latter being
able to determine their distance. The latter
were often taken on the flank and were uu-
able to guess whence the fire came. If it
had been a real battle they would have been
annihilated. The war office is preparing to
supply smoKeless powder to all the troops,
including the second class landwehr.
The latest perfected smokeless powder
leaves no sign after firing by infantry and
only a slight gray mist after the firing of
artillery.
The constant squabbles between Edwards,
the United States consul at Berlin, and the
merchants, have resulted in formal com
plant being sent to the foreign office by the
merchants regarding the consul's delay of
business and his uncivil demeanor. The
complaint has already been referred to
Herbert Bismarck who is indisposed TO
interfere, on the ground that the matter is
of too little Importance. Consul Edwards.
it is sald has the approval of Secretary
Blaine in the general line of his conduct
General Won Bin nmenthal, who was sup
posed to be under the displeasure of Emperor
William, was present at the maneuvres
to-day, and was cordially received by the
emperor, The popular demonstration so
gratified the emperor that he told The burgo-
master of Hanover that he hoped to pass sew
eral days yearly among the Hanover people.
His majesty distributed 100 decorations. In
accordance with his wish the municipal au-
thorities of Hanover will fill an album with
photographs of the leading Incidents of his
visit.
Minister Phelps, IL is expected, will be
granted an audience with Prince Bismarck
on the 26th inst, and will be received by the
emperor on the 27th.
The government has finally decided to
make the amended apti-socialist law, which
has hitherto been renewed every two years,
part OF the permanent penal code. A com.
mission of the ministry OF Justice has revised
and slightly altered the bill which will be
one of the prominent questions of the coming
session Of the reichstag. The national lib
erals, recently credited with determination
to offer independent opposition to the meas
ure, show through their press organs dis
position to Join the conservatives in support
of the government, while the centrlsts prom
ise uncompromising hostility. The socialists
contemplate the change from temporary TO
permanent restrictions with equanimity, be-
lieving that their party progress Will not be
hindered thereby.
If the eye affection from which Herr Won
Scholz is suffering forces him TO resign the
office.iof. finance minister he will be succeeded
by Herr Won Steinmann, president of Schles-
wig -Holstein.
