The Cars Hostile Policy.

BERLIN, June S.-Bismarck's period
of repose at Schonhausen was probably
cut short by advices from st. Petersburg,
showing a renewal of the hostile policy of
the car. The emperor's programme for
his visit to England and for the reception
of Emperor Francis Joseph and other
plans remain uncertain, through the cars
tacit refusal to settle the preliminaries for
the proposed interview with Emperor
William, Bismarck sent to st. Petersburg
asking for the appointment of a date and
place for the meeting of the emperors. but
the car declined 10 appoint a date, further
than that on returning from Copenhagen
he might meet Emperor William at Kiel.
The tame esponse from Russia rendered
the sending OF a formal invitation from
Berlin doubtful. Semi official newspapers
say the cordial personal relations between
the car and Emperor William are I'M
changed, but they ignore the fact of a
renewal Of strained relations ofthe Berlin
and Vienna governments toward Russia.

day, Hollow Horn Bear, Two Strike and
Hawk made speeches in opposition to the
new treaty, basing their objection on the
ground that the treaty of 1868 has not
yet expired. Nearly all Indians are favor
able, but prominent chiefs have unques-
tionably been influenced by some persons
who oppose it. If the source from which
this influence emanates can be found,
there can be no question that all the In
dams will sign. The commissioners ap.
preciate the importance of success here as
influencing the result elsewhere. While
indications are favorable, it is impossible
to predict the final result.

He said the liberal party was moving in
the right direction and at a fair pace. He
spoke in favor of limiting the length of
parliament to four or five years. Refer
ring to crime, he admitted crime had de-
creased and attributed the improvements
to recent remedial measures, to the bene-
fetal influence of Irish members of par
lament and to the priests, and above all
to the knowledge possessed by the irish
people that a large number of the people
of England sympsthized with them. 1t
