return to Potsdam tomorrow and Prince
Bismarck will come to Berlin on Wednes-
day. Count Herbert Bismarck,
all cabinet ministers and Gen.
Won Schweinitz, the German am
bassador TO Russia, are summoned
to meeting on Thursday This assem-
bling of political potencies is due TO the
ear coming visit, for winch definite
arrangements are to be made. The
Keller Zeitung announces that the Rus
sian yachts, Dergava and CZaTevina and
the iron-clad, General Admiral, con-
'veyipg the car, are timed to reach kiel
ON the morning of the 27th inst.
Although the ear has expressed an
earnest wish that his reception be as
quiet as possible, and that no inteTna-
tional subject be pressed upon his atten
ton during his stay, Prince Bismarck
appears determined to invest the inter-
view with all possible Importance. If
his plans are effected, instead of a short
and unceremOnious visit the car will be
treated TO q number of court
banquets and diplomatic dinners.
The absence of NJ. de GieTs,
the Russian foreign minister. indicates
that the ear IS determined 20 refuse
Prince Bismarck q political conference.
In order to emphasize his desire 10 avoid
a discussion of foreign affairs the ear has
ordered NJ. DE Giers to leave st. Peters
burg Tuesday for fortnight ; holiday,
winch is to be spent in the provinces.
Throughout his sojourE here the ear will
refrain from the transaction of all
foreign office business.
The NevOe Vremya GTashdnin, and all
Russian papers agree that the exception
allv friendly treatment OF the cZaroyitch,
during his visit to Germany and courte-
sizes offered to the ear do not affect the
relations between the two countries.
The czar's personal feelings toward the
emperor nave recently been excited by
an Incident rising from his
comforting the order of st. Stanisiaus on
a Bulgarian, Mayor Grueff, who kid
mapped Prince Alexander OF Battenberg,
and who is now a Russian pensiOner.
The emperor, at a military dinner,
IN the course of conversation,
expressed wonder that the decOra-
tion should have been given
to a traitOrous soldier. The Russian
officers who wore the decoration of the
order of st. Stanislaus wer6 present at
the dinner and heard the emperor's
words They forthwith returned
the insignia 10 st. Petersburg
with a collectively signed protest
stating that they could not wear an order
that had been given to muttneer. The
cZar's evaporation was so intense that
he demanded, through Count SchOuva-
loft the Russian ambassador here, the
punishment of the officers The
emperor placed item under ar
rest for unauthorized correspond
ence with foreign government, but
after two days he ordered their release.
The belief OF the foreign Office here is
that the ear designs to stay only 81 few
hours at Potsdam and not to come to
Berlin, proceeding straight to Moscow
after an interchange of formal civilities
with Emperor William.
The maneuvres at Hanover terminated
to-day. The Post published n military
report on the maneuvres, which is con-
elusive as to the necessity of smOk eless
powder henceforth for both artillery
and infantry. The reports dilate upon
the demoralizing and bewIlGering effect
of smokeless fire of infantry of their
opponents, and also refer to the in
creased certainty of aim resulting from
the absence of smoke, especially in
the case of artillery. The war
Office is preparing to supply
smokeless powder TO all troops. The lat
est perfected SInOkeItSe pOWueT IedFeS no
sign after firing by infantry, and only
slight gray mist after firing by artillery.

ceived by the emperor on the 9th.
The government has decided to make
the amended anti-socialist law, which
has hitherto been renewed every two
years, part of the permanent penal
code. A commissioner of the ministry
of Justice has revised and slightly altered
the bill which viii be one of
the prominent questions of the coming
session of the reichstag. The National
Liberals recently credited with deter
mination to offer independent opposition
to the measures, have through their press
organ shown d disposition to join
the Conservatives III support OF
the government, while the Cen
trists promise Incorporating hostilities.
The socialists contemplate the change
from temporary to permanent
restriction with equauimity, believing
their party progress viii not be bindered
thereby.
