BERLIN, July 26.-[Copyrighted 1890
by the New York Associated Press. J.
1t is reported that the emperor will
visit Russia. The emperor must have
been stung by the ex-chancellor's per-
sonal sarcasms, and the question of how
to silence him probably occupies the
emperor's mind as much as the critical
developments in the East. All idea of
adopting legal measures to suppress
Bismarck's utterance have, however,
been abandoned The emperor will re-
turn from England August Sth, and pass
a week at Potsdam before starting for
Russia. He will return from Russia on
the 25th, and within a month there
after it will be known whether the
German-Austrian relations with Russia
will be more friendly or strained to the
point OF rupture.
A newspaper of st. Petersburg, which
is credited with occasional inspiration
by the czar, says that the Russian policy
in the Balkans is decided upon. The
basis of the expected arrangement ap-
pears to be the czar's accer tance of
Emperor Williams candidate for the
Bulgarian throne. Events in Bulgaria,
however, may precipitate a revolution
and nullify this diplomacy. In view OF
a possible rupture with Russia, Emperor
William, during his recent visit to
Copenhagen and Christiana, revived
the proposal for Scandinavian coali-
ton, including the reabsorption
of Finland by Sweden. The
Cars ukases, tending toward the COM
plete Russifying of Finland, create a
feeling of intense discomfort, which is
ripening to revolt. The emperor offers
King Oscar as the price of Sweden's en-
try in the dreibund, the prospective res
toration of Finland.
Prince Bismarck, giving the NouOe
Tremya correspondent a second inter-
view, deplored the menacing aspect OF
affairs, and said that he felt it now more
than ever his chief duty to try to assure
the peace of Europe. Why, he asked,
should Germany continue to re-
gard Russia as an inevitable en-
emy? At the present moment
he said, absolutely no reason existed for
a German war with Russia, and an at
tack on Russia by the Germans was in
conceivable on any good grounds.
,Germany's energies ought to be cOncen-
longer the state gave away to the an
archists' demands, the bloodier would
be the issue. The whole tenor OF the
issue suggests that Bismarck is unrecon-
SLED to the kaiser, and will become a
formidable opponent in any line OF
foreign policy involving quarrel with
Russia.
Socialist committees have intrusted to
Herren Bebel, Leibknecht, Singer and
Auer the preparation of a plan for the
reorganization of the party, to be pre-
sented to the congress which meets in
Berlin in October. The language of the
Volkstriba,ne, which is edited by the EX-
tremist Schippel forbodes increasing
friction between sections of the party.
The Extremists are impatient at Bebel
and Liebknecht's pacific policy.
The operation performed by Professor
Fuchs, of Vienna, on the eyes OF the
shah's first wife has proved unsuccess-
full and she is now totally blind.
Buffalo Bill's Wild West show is pros
pering. M. Herbette, the French ambas-
sador, Mr.. Phelps, the American min
lister, and number of other diplomats
and Americans were present at the
opening performance. The health COM
missioner insisted upon a general inspec
ton before he would sanction the open
ing of the exhibition.
