BERLIN, May 3lst.-Emperor William
to-day was able for the first time since last
Sundays accident to bobble about the
room on crutch. Several of the smaller
bones in his ankle were broken. and the
whole leg is confused
The doctors insist on his taking a lonyer
rest. Throughout the week the Emperor
has kept his Secretaries and Ministers act
lively at work. He was displeased at the
delays in the negotiations with England in
regard to Africa, and took entire control of
the matter.
After several conferences with the British
ambassador and the heads OF the Colonial
Department, proposals were fixed upon
which tits thought will prove acceptable to
Lord Salisbury. Briefly they are that the
German sphere shall extend to the limits
of the Congo State from the northern ex-
tremity of Tanganysak to Albert Nyauza.
| and that Unganda and the British Unyorro
shall be neutral ground, and that the nav.
igation of the lakes shall be free.
The British ambassador evidently
thought these bases good enough to Justify
| the resumption of the discussion, as he has
recalled Lord Salisbury's Envoy and the
"a
is expected over the matter.
Major Wissmann comes about June
Esd and Dr. Peters early in July. each

German claims.
The minor state of siege ends in Leipsic
on June 18th, and if the Government does
| not renew il, the fact will signalize the de-
termination of the authorities to cease
special Socialist enactments throughout
Germany.
According to the Socialist Volksblqtt. the
Saxon Government has asked the Bundles
rath to prolong the law. This demand has
aroused the Emperor, who desires to place
| before the Bundesrath data in support of
the non-renewal of the measure.
The Hamburger Machrichen predicts an
| inevitable instruction 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 revolt will have a
| salutary influence upon social organism
but II is certain that renewal of the re.
pressive measures will be fruitless, and
otherwise troubles will again arise"
The ceremony OF placing the last stone
| OF the spire of the Ulm Cathedral took
place to-day amid the ringing of bells and
general rejoicing. 1t is $50 feet high-the
highest in the world.
The Ndchrichtea doubtless reflects Bis.
marcks opinion, which continues to in.
fiuence the members of the Bundesrath.
Bismarck, in speech to the delegates of
POLYTECHNIC Academies, who presented
him with an address, reminded them of
| the value OF the idea of unity permeating
| Germany. People who ascribed to him
the phrase that unity could only be estab-
| lished by blood and iron, misunderstood
his saying. What he meant was that the
King at that time ought to have as much
power as possible, in order that in case of
| need he might throw all the blood and iron
into the scale. Fortunately Germany had
got past that now. and the greatest fortune
| for the country was peace. He did not be.
lieve German Emperor would ever look
upon map with a Napoleonic lust of con-
quest in his heart
