German Politics.

Especial to THE HERALD-Exarniner Cable.
LONDON, March 30.-German politics con-
tinue to command great public attention and
gossip. An attache of the Austrian legation at
Berlin, whose name for obvious reasons is with
held, in an interview to-day. said: Since the
perfidy of Emperor William and the German
Conservatives in their endeavor to GUST Prince
Bismarck from political life and from the hearts
of his countrymen, especially in the matter of
defeating the Socialist bill in the last reichstag
have become pretty fully known, strong reac.
ton has set in toward the ex-chancellor which
may in the near future prove disastcrous politi-
cally to the Emperor's aspirations. Were
Prince Bismarck less loyal to his Emperor aud
loved the Germans less, he could by raising his
mighty voice, by welding his pungent pen make
the political life of the Emperor and his Conser-
vatiye enemies of short duration indeed. But
the ex-chancellor's political horoscope shows
that there were those who sought his downfall
and those who generously tried to nut off the
day will see these in.rigueS against him
prove boomerang politically for those who
fostered them. 1t was q knowledge of the
means used to force Prince Bismarck into re-
tirement, more than any other factor that made
the hearts of even the great Socialist popula-
ton of Berlin go out in sympathy toward him and
was the cause of the imperialistic reception
which greeted him on the occasion of his visit
10 Berlin Wednesday last. Very few of the
leading politicians in Berlin believe the EN-
peror will succeed in obtaining working ma
jority in the reichstag, as it is thought that
the concessions which will be asked for such
service will far exceed his expectations
