BERLIN, May 31.-Emperor William
for the first time since the accident of Sun
day last was able to-day to draw a boot on
the, injured foot, and to attempt to walk
about his room with the aid of a crutch.
The injury is not mere sprain; several of
the smaller bones of the ankle are broken,
and the whole leg is confused.
Throughout the Emperor was displeased
at the delays in the negotiations with En-
gland regarding East Africa, and took en-
tire control of the communications on the
subject. He sent for Sir E. B. Malet, the
British Ambassador, on Monday, and has
had several interviews with him since. DR..
Krauel, the head of the Colonial Depart
ment, assisted the Emperor toward the con-
ceptior of proposals which are expected to
prove acceptable to Lord Salisbury.
THE AFRICAN DIFFICULTY.
Broadly outlined these proposals are that
that the German sphere of influence shall
extend TO the limits of the Congo State from
the northern extremity of Tanganyika to the
Albert Nvanza, that Uganda and British
Unyoro shall be neutral ground and that
the navigation of the lakes shall be free.
The British Ambassador appears to think
these bases good enough to justify resump-
tion of the discussion of details, and has,
therefore, recalled Lord SRlisburv's
specialist Sir Percy Anderson, who returns
here on Monday for further conferences
with DIR. Krauel on the subject of delimita-
tion.
Sir William Mackinnon, Chief of the
English East Africa Company, and Herr
Vohsen, representing the German Company,
will also take part in the negotiations and
there is a sure prospect of prolonged row
over the conflicting demands of the two
companies. Major Wissman comes about
June %, and Dr. Peters early in July, each
loaded with facts and reasons in support of
the German claims.
SOCIALISTS AND ANARCHISTS.
Dr. Lucanus, Chief of the Civil Cabinet,
to-day, presented a report based on Police
Director Kruger's information regarding
the relations OF the Socialists with the
Anarchists in Switzerland, France and
others countries. The report must have
been ordered by the Emperor long before
there was any suspicion of Nihilist plot
in Paris, and in view of the expiration of
the aDti-Soclalist law. The minor state of
siege ends in Leipsic on June %, and If the
Government does not renew it the fact will
signalize the determination of the authori-
ties to cease special Socialist enactments
throughout Germany.
According to the Socialist Volksblatt, the
Saxon Government has asked the Bundes-
rath to prolong the law. This demand
of Saxony is tantamount TO a protest against
a cessation of the law, and has aroused the
Emperor, who desires to place before the
Bundesrath data in support of a nom
renewal of the measure. The official tend
ency here now is in accordance with the
Emperor's desire to give the Socialists
"freer BREATH
STRIKES NOT INCITED FROM ABROAD.
Thus the police reports entirely free
every section from connection with foreign
Anarchists and dispel the suspicion that
the recent strikes were melted from abroad
Russians or other foreigners resident in the
populous centers of Germany, who are
known to be in sympathy with the So
cialists, are not known as affiliated with any
revolutionary society.
MendeIsohn, Nakatchiz Demski and Rem
stein, who were arrested In Paris, have each
the same police record here, dating years
back. Mendelsohn figured in a Socialist
trial at Posen in 1884 and serving term in
prison, be was delivered to the Russian
police on a charge of being concerned in a
plot to wreck the Cars train. He escaped
and took refuge in Switzerland. Nakatchiz |
has been a student in Berlin and has been |
under special surveillance. He was closely |
watched by the Russian police during the |
last visit of the Gar. Remstein had rela- |
tions with the Leipsic Socialists and as
sisted Demski while at Zurich in the cIrcu-
lation OF Socialist pamphlets.
AN INEVITABLE INsURREcTIoN.
No disclosures arising from the arrests in |
rqn 10 rban nt fho oia1-
lists of obtaining a release from exceptional |
disabilities, the police inquiries freeing |
every known leader from the remote associ- |
alton with Anarchists. Whatever relations |
once existed have now long ceased. The
Bundesrath's assent to permit the Socialist
law to expire is doubtful. The Hamburger
Ndchrichten indicates the reluctance of the
Federal Government to assent to the ex-
piration OF the law, and predicts an in
evitable insurrection when the restraints on
the proletariat are removed. 1t adds:
"When the guns have spoken God knows
what will happen. Perchance the blood
shed following the report will have a salu-
tary influence upon the social organism,
but it is certain that the renewal of re-
pressive measures will be pitiless. Other |
wise troubles will again arise, and the gan
creme o socialism NAV rot even the army"
The Ndchrichten doubtless reflects Bis |
marck's opinion, which continues to infu- |
ence the members of the Bundesrath.
A VICTORY FOR THE ULTRAMoSTANEs |
The resignation of Baron Won Lutz, the |
Bavarian Prime Minister, is a victory for
the Ultramontanes. Under the advice of
Baron Won Lutz the regent requested the !
chbIshop of Munich to prevent the Catho- !
lie Congress being held in Munich, on the |
ground that it would evoke demonstrations
obnoxious to the Government The Arch |
bishop, although resenting his request, pre-
vailed upon the Catholic leaders to change
the place of meeting of the Congress Baron
Won Lutz, attacked by the Moderate Catho- |
lies OF Bavaria and assailed bv general
public opinion of Germany, was forced to
retire.
The Regent in accepting his resignation,
sent him bust of himself and an autograph
letter praising his services to the State and
announcing his appointment to the list of
special State Councillors. Baron Crails-
helm becomes Premier with the foreign
portfolio, and DR.. Won Mueller, now Presi-
dent of Police, becomes Minister of Public
Worship. Otherwise the Cabinet is un-
changed.
BISMARCK MIsQUoTED.
Subscriptions for the Bismarck memorial
continue to pour in. coming chiefly from the |
wealthy middle class The fund has now
reached the sum of 1884, marks. Prince |
Bismarnk's speech to the delegates OF the |
polytechnic academies, who presented him |
with an address, had no trace of the bitter |
ness of feeling regarding his position which |
has been attributed to him in doubtful in |
terviews. He reminded them of the value |
of unity permeating Germany.
The people who ascribed to him the
phrase that unity could ouly be established
bv blood and iron misunderstood him.
