PRINCE BISMARCK
Continues to Irritate the En-
peror by Talking.
WILLIAMS VISIT TO RUSSIA.
Sweden May Be Invited TO Join the Dreibund
The Situation in the
Balkans.

BERLIN, July Copyright, 1890, by
the New York Associated Press 1T is re-
ported that Emperor William will wait on
Bismarck in regard to his published inter-
view. The Emperor must have been stung
by ex Chancellor Bismarck's indifference,
and the question of how to silence him
probably occupies the Emperor's mind an
much as critical documents in the east. All
idea of adopting legal measures to suppress
Bismarck's utterances have, however, been
abandoned.
The Emperor will return from Europe
Eugust ond pass week at Pottsdam be-
fore departing for Russia. He will return
from Russia on the 25th, and within
month thereafter it will be known whether
the German-Austrian relations with Rus
STA will be more friendly or strained to the
point of rupture. The Grdshddntn, of st.
Petersburg, which is credited with occa-
sional inspirations by the Car, says
the Russian policy in the Balkans, is the
basis of the expected arrangement which.
appears to be the Cars acceptance of En-
peror Williams candidate to the Bulgarian
throne. Events in Bulgaria. however, may
precipltate revolution and nullify this
diplomacy. In view of possible rupture
with Russia, Emperor William, dur
ing his recent visit to Copen-
hagen and Christiania, revived the pro-
posal for a Scandinavian coalition,
including the re- ABSORPTION of Finland by
Sweden. The Cars ukases tending toward
the complete Russifying of Finland create
a feeling of intense discomfort which is
ripening to revolt. The Emperor offered
King Oscar as the price of Sweden's entry
into the dreibund the prospective restora-
ton of Finland.
ppipae PicrnaTo- in, r-iry
Vermyd correspondent a second interview,
deploring the menacing aspect of affairs
and said he felt it now more than ever his
chief duty to try to assure the peace Of
Europe. Why, he asked, should Ger
many continue to regard Russia as
her inevitable enemy. At the pres.
ent moment, he said, absolutely no
reason existed for German war on
Russia and an attack on Russia by Ger
mans was inconceIvable on any good
grounds. Germany'S energies ought to be
concentrated in dealing wild the dangers
of Socialism. The danger to the state was an
archy and blood would be the issue. The
whole tenor of the interview suggests that
Bismarck is unreconciled to the Kaiser and
will become formidable opponent in any
line of policy involving quarrel with
Russia.
The Socialist committees have instructed
Herren Bebel, Leibknecht, Singer and
Auer to prepare plan for the reorganiza,
| ton of the party, to be presented to the
Congress which meets in Berlin in Octo-
Der. The language of the Votks Tribune,
which is edited by the Extremist Schoppel,
forbodes increasing friction between the
sections of the party. The Extremists are
| impatient at Bebel and Leicknecht's pacific
policy.
The operation performed by Prof. Fuchs,
of Vienna, on the eyes of the Shah's first
wife has proved unsuccessful, and she is
now totally blind.
Buffalo Bills 'Wild West" show is

bassador, Mr.. Phelps, the American minis
ter, and a number of other diplomats and
Americans were present at the opening

insisted upon a general inspection before
he would sanction the opening of the ex-
hibition.
