lCopyrehs 1889. by the New York Associated Pressl
BERLIN, Sept H.-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 Schweinitz,
the German ambassador to Russia, are
summoned to a meeting on Thursday. The
assembling of political potencies is due to
the Cars coming visit, for which definite
arrangements are to be made. He will
reach Kiel on the 27th inst.
Although the. Gear has expressed
be as quiet as possible. and that no inter-
national subject be pressed upon his atten-
tiOn during his stay, Prince Bismarck ap-
pears determined to invest the interview
with all possible Importance. If his plans
are effected, instead of short and uncere-
monious visit, the Gar will be treated to
a number of court banquets and diplO-
matte dinner. The absence of M. De Giers,
the Russian Foreign Minister, indicates
that the Car is determined to refuse Prince
Bismarck political conference. In order
TO emphasize his desire to avoid the discus
sion of foreign affairs, the Car has ordered
M. De Giers to leave st. Petersburg on
Tuesday for fortnight's holiday, which is
to be spent in the provinces.
The Cars personal feelings toward the
Emperor have recently been excited bv an
incident arising from his comforting the
order of st. Stanlslaus on Bulgarian,
Major Grueff, who kidnapped Prince Alex
ander of Battenburg, and who is now
Russian pensloner. The Emperor, at a
military dinner, in the course OF converse
tiOn, expressed wonder that the decoration
should have been given to a traitorous sol
dier Three Prussian officers who wore the
decoration of the order of st. Stanislaus
were present at the dinner, and heard the
Emperor's words. They forthwith returned
the insignia to st. Petersburg, with a col
lectively signed protest, stating that they
could not wear an order that had been
given to mutineer. The Cars exaspera-
tion was so intense that he demanded
through Count Schouvaloff, the Russian
ambassador here. the punishment of the
officers. The Emperor placed them under
arrest for unauthorized correspondence
with foreign government, but after two
days he ordered their release.

COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 21.-The Sovereign
Grand Lodge of Odd-fellows, to-day. in
dorsed the action Of the grand sire in inter-
dieting the promiscuous publication of the
degree floor work, and provided for the ap-
pointment of a committee of five to prepare
a plan of floor work for the various degrees.
Resolutions were adopted to give the head
quarters fund of the Patriarchs Militant

struction of minors in the principles of the
order; authorizing grand masters to appoint
lady past grands as instructors in secret
work; authorizing the Grand Lodge of
Dakota to divide the jurisdiction at
the next annual meeting, and authorizing
the grand sire to grant a charter to the
Grand Encampment of North Dakota. The
constitution was amended to provide for
the election of officers of the Sovereign
Grand Lodge annually, instead of bien-
nially; permitting State and territorial grand
bodies to make laws disqualifying persons
engaged in the sale of Intoxicating bev-
erages for membership in the order. The
resolution providing for an eighteen-year
next season. was rejected and the decision of
the grand sire, allowing Buckeye Encamp-
ment, of Columbus to appropriate s50from

approved. The question of a constitution

OF the act, which ended on the 1st instant,
only twenty-one Chinese entered the
colony by sea, and about 1.S00 returned to

twenty-one. several were returned residents
who were abroad when the act came into
force, and one or two were naturalized and
prominent residents of Sidney. In Victoria
only single Chinaman landed during the
year, and he paid the poll-tax of f100,

Meanwhile the negotiations between the
British and Chinese governments on the
subject are absolutely at stand-still.

The Struggle To-Day to BE One Of Life or

LONDON, Sept. 21.-The Paris and London
newspapers devote great quantity OF
space to speculation and prediction as to
the outcome of to-morrOw's elections in
France. The various parties and fac
tions which compose the voting strength
OF the Republic have. for the moment, thrust
behind them all their differences, and
grouped themselves as revisionists. or anti
revisionists, in readiness to contest the only
issue involved in the balloting. The
government and its supporters have
all along secuted the idea of BOulangist
success, but the precautions which the Min
istry have taken against possible violence,
and the strenuous efforts made to protect
the election agents of the BOulang-
lists from thoroughly canvassing the
country betrays the fact that they are
more anxious than they are willing to ad-
NIT. Troops have been concentrated at all
points where the contest is expected to be
close or exciting. and every possible pre-
caution against fraud has been taken.
The belief most generally expressed by
the press and by experienced politicians is
that the struggle will be one of life or
death for Boulanger, and in many
places where the Boulangists are hope
lessly in the minority their candidates will
be withdrawn. Notwithstanding these
Withdrawals, however, there are 1929 can
didates for the $40 seats to be filed. Paris
and it's suburbs have forty-two
seats, and these are contested
by 317 candidates, not counting
General Boulanger himself and Count
Dillon. There is sure to be very heavy vOt-
ing everywhere, and the opinion seems to
be most general that to-morrow's election
will not be decisive, but that a second
ballot will have to be taken in October in
more than half of the divisions.
The Pail Mall Gazette. in long article
on the subject this afternoon. expresses the
opinion that nothing short of miracle can
save the Republic from losing ground in

General Won Blumenthal, who was sup

peror William, was present at the ma
neuvers to-day, and was cordially received
by the Emperor. The popular demonstra-
tions so gratified the Emperor that he told
the burgomaster of Hanover that he hoped
to pass several days yearly among the
Hanoverians. His Majesty distributed six
teen decorations. In accordance with his
wish the municipal authorities of Hanover
will fill an album with photographs of the
leading incidents of his visit.
