Prince Bismarck will come TO Berlin
Wednesday.
Count Herbert Bismarck, all the cabinet
ministe and Gel von Schweinitz, tho
G rman ambassad II to Russia, are sum
moned to a meeting Thursday.
The assem- ling of the political potencies
is due to the czar's coming visit, for which
which deflnitive arrangements are to be
made.
The Kiel Zeittng announces that the
Russian yachts De gava and Czarevi a,
and the ironclad Gen. Admiral, conveyi &
the czar, are timed to rea Kiel on the
morning of Sept. "a. Although the ear
has expressed an earnest wish that
his reception be as quiet as pos
sible, and that no international sub
ject be pressed upon his attention during
his stay, Prince Bismarck appears
to be determined to invest the interview
ith possible Importance. If his plans
are effected, instead Of a short and un-
cere uonious visit, the car will be tres tied
to a number of court benquets aId
diplomatic dinner.
DE GIERs' ABSENCE.
The absence of ". de Giers, the Russian for
eign minister, indicates that the czar is de-
termi ed t. refuse Prince Bismarck
a poll ical conference In order TO en-
phasize his desire to avoid discussion of for
eign affairs, the car has ordered NJ. de
Giers TO leave st. Petersburg on Tuesday
for fortnight's holiday, which is to
spent IN the pr vinces. Through ut his
sojourn here thu czar will osteatalously
refrain from the transaction Of all foreig'
fiic Business. Tue NoUoe VrenlyG Crash
ddniil and all the Russia papers agree
That the excspto lally fiisudly treatme II
of the czarovltz during his visit to Ger
many and the courte les offere to the ear
do not fleet the relations between the two
countries.
PERSONAL FEELINGS EXCITED.
The czar's perso ial feelings toward the
emperor have recently beel excited by an
incident arisi ~ from his confertiug the
order of S. Stanislaus on the Bulgaria
dajor Grueff, who kidnapped Prince Alex
ander of Battenberg, and who now is a
Russian pen ioner The EN- error at mil
itary dinner in the course of his oOnversatlo
expressed wonder that a decoration should
have been given to traitorous soldier.
Three Prussian officers we're prese 1t at the
dinner and heard the emperor's words.
They forthwith retu ned their insignia t.
ST. Petersburg with a collectively signed
protest stating that they could not wear an
order that had boeu given to mutineer.
PUNISHMENT DEMANDED.
The czar's evaporation was so intense
that he uem ndcd through Count Schouva-
loft, the Russian ambassador here, the pun
ishment of the officers. The emperor
pl cei them under arrest for unauthorized
correspo deuce with a forei IN govern
ment, but after two days he ordered
their rele Sc. The belief Of the foreign
off here is that the czar designs TO stay
only few hours at Po.sdam aud not to
come to Berlin, proceeding str Aight to Nos
cow after intercha Re of formal civlli-
ties with Emperor William.
HANovER's MANEUvERs.
The maneuvers at Hanover terminated
to-day. The emperor, commanding the
tenUh corps, assumed the defens We position
behind the Elssen-Alilde railway. His
corps used smokeless powder. Eight Schu-
mann iron clad towers armed with machine
guns figured in the fight, the plan
of which involved the retire 1t
powder. The Post published military re-
port on the maneuvers which is conclusive
as TO the necessity of smokeless powder
nenceforth for both artillery and infant. Y.
The cor using the smokeless powder & IT
within 200 yards of the enemy with ut the
latter being able to detsrm ne the distance.
The lat we often taken on the flank
and were unable to guess whence the fire
came. IL it rad been a real battle they
would have been an ihalted.
A DEMoRALIZING EFFECT.
The report dllates upon e demoralizing
and be ildering eff sct Of tue smokelsss fire
Of infantry upod their opponents, and also
refers TO the i ere Isei certainty of al .
arising from the absence Of SIN ke espec-
Ially in the ca e of artillery. The war office
is preparing TO supply sm0keless powder to
alf troops, iacludl z the seco d class Land
wehr. The latest pc fected smokeess pow
der leaves no sign after firing by infantry
aud only slight gray mist after firing by
artillery.
Gen. Won BlumenthaI, who was supposed
to be under the displeasure II the emperor,
was present at the maneuvers to-day, and
was cordially receiv by the enper or. The
popul lr demonstration 50 gratified Emps-
ror William, that he told the burg master
of Hanover tina ne hopei to pass several
days yearly among he Hanoverians.
ii IS majesty distributed 100 decorations.
In accordance with his wish, the municipal
authorities of Hanover will fill an albu n
With photogi aphs of the leading incidents
of bis visit.
sQUABBLEs WITH CONSUL EDWARDS.
The constant SquaOOleS between Mr..
Edwards, the United States consul at
Berlin, aud merchants have resulted in a
formal complaint beng sent TO the foreig
oeiee by the syndics of the merchants So
ciety regarding the consulaLes delay of
busi less and u Icivil treatment. The COM
plant has ready been refe red to Count
Herb .rt Bismarck, who is indisposed to
interfere in the matter on the grou. d that
il is Of too little importance. Consul
Ed wards, it is said, has the approval Of
Secretary Blaine In general line Of his con-
duct.
THE ANTT-soCTALIsT LAW.
The government has finally decided to
make the amended anti-sociallst law, which
has hitherto bee renewed every two Ye rs,
part OF the permanent peAal code. A COM
mission of the mini try of justice has re-
vised and slightly altered the bill, which
will be one Of the prominent ou ss-
tions of the coming session Of the
Reichstag. The national liberals, recently
credited with dissemination TO offer in
dependenr opposition to the measure, show
through their press organs disposition to
ioin the conservatives in support Of the
government, while the centrists promise
Incorporating ostility. The socialists
the change from temporary to
permanent restrictions with equanimi5y,
believing that their party progress viii not
