BERLIN, Oct. Awhile the German
emperor is making merry in the company
of the Austrian kaiser, the Socialists are
raising the standard of agitation in his
rear. Freed since Tuesday last from the
| operation of the iron laws which Bis
marck had contrived for them, they are
theories of Socialism, combined with a
demand for those political rights which
are still denied to the people of Germany.
Il sgIhaT9new situation Is viewed
fzwifh alarm by the manufacturing and
| property holding classes. On the other
| hand Bismarck, who has always averred
| that the Socialist agitation was far
more serious menace to the empire than
| any Eastern question, is said to be well
pleased with the growing apprehension
among those whose interests make them
conservative. There is no doubt that
the Socialists will be allowed a liberal
| reign for time, but any direct attack
| upon the constituted authority, whether
| by speech or act, will be promptly met.
EFFECTS OF THE M'KINLEY BILL.
A Vienna dispatch says that Germany
and Austria have come to substantial
agreement to discriminate against eX-
ports from the United States, and that
Italy, the third member of the triple
alliance, will probably join the move
ment. The accession of Holl and to the
arrangement ls certain, an economic
alliance against North America having
been first suggested by that country.
Both in Germany and Austria indus
trial conditions have been much dis
turbed by the new American tariff
bill, and many thousands of working
people heretofore employed on goods for
the American market are out of employ
meht with winter close at hand. Thous-
ands of these are preparing TO emigrate,
but many who have not the means to
emigrate cannot escape suffering on the
continent. The prospect for the poorer
classes this winter is very bad.
IN ENGLAND.
English industry is now beginning to
feel the effects of the new American tar
III law. Manufacturers were kept busy
up to the latest possible moment in max
ink goods for America to be shipped in
advance of the new law going into oper-
alton, and many are now busy
in filing orders which meanwhile
accumulated from England and from
foreign countries other than the United
States. This will keep SUCH establish
ments alive for several months to come.
but this good fortune is not univeral and
from so many quarters come evidence of
commercial disturbances more or less
serious in their effects.
Col. Vincent, the noted advocate of
protection for British industry has been
interviewed in relation to the Mckinley
bill. He says in substance that Great
Britain cannot longer afford to throw
her markets open to countries which place
an embargo on British productions and
that he will urge the question of far
trade with renewed energy in the coming
session of parliament.
FRANCE AND ITALY.
The relations between France and
Italy are far from happy. The French
press has for o long time INDUCED in IN
sparing attacks on Italy, while the Ital-
ians, on the other hand, have main tanned
o friendly tone until now they Sc EN- to
be thoroughly aroused and ready for re-
prisals in word at least. The certainty
that the triple alliance will be re-
newed and that compact has been
made to renew it, undoubtedly /
adds to the bitterness of the French ami |
mostly. The French papers do not even |
spare King Humbert, whom they hold |
up TO ridicule in caricature. This is !
said to be keenly felt by the king, who,
while very democratic in his habits,
is extremely sensitive to lack |
of respect. He is also pop |
ular. He has no guards about |
him. He drives himself on his own dog |
cart, or whatever vehicle takes the place |
of it, and he is simpler in his ways than |
almost any wealthy man of his realm.
This very simplicity is held up TO jest By |
the press of Republican Francs. While |
there is no cause within sight for open |
hostilities, the situation is inflammable. |
