BERLIN, October 25th-Several official
movements point TO the possibility of tariff
questions engaging the attention of the
Reichstag, rendering necessary careful
nursing of the Ministerial majority. A
Commission has been appointed to inquire
into the Austro German com mercisl rela-
tons, with view to reciprocity diminu-
ton of the tariffs. Communications have
been sent TO the leading firms in Hamburg,
Bremen and other trade centers asking
them to report on the effects of the Mckin-
ley bill in their lines of trade. They are
also asked what prospects there are for
finding new channels for merchandise af-
fected by the Mckinley bill.
The Commission on Foreign Tariffs fur
Their has to consider the new Russian pro-
tective measure. The Russian Commission
will begin work next week upon the details
of the new tariff, which the Nov0e Fremy1
declares will be the highest in Europe.
Official circles continue to doubt that any
important alteration will be made in the
existing treaty with Austria, and are
equally skepiicsl as to any German repris
ais upon American trade. Reports thus
far received tend to dissipate the feeling OF
dldTlu CIcatcu Wy tllS aug AluCl1Cdu
tariff.
The leading export houses appear to be
doing normal trade, and American orders
in the leading commercial center5 do not
appreciably diminish. However the future
may affect the exports, the Government
will not be driven into concerted reprisals
with Austria by the sudden collapse in the
American trade.
Reports emanating from Paris and Vienna
attributing the initiation of the proposed
concerted legislation in retaliation for the
| Mckinley bill to the Berlin Government,
are utterly untrue.
Chancellor Won Caprivi will meet Siguor
| Crispi, the Italian Prime Minister, at
| Mousen on November Sth. The interview
will concern the settlement of the intrigue
in the Austrian Court in favor of the Vati-
can against the Italian Government. Sig
| nor Crispi declares that Italy continu-
| ance as member of the triple alliance is
| menaced By the cabal of prominent men,
| bers of the Imperial family of Austria,
whose emissaries at the Vatican encourage
| the belief that the overthrow of Count
| Kolnoky or the death of Emperor Francis
| Joseph will be the signal for the rupture of
| the Austro-I Italian alliance, which would
result in an effort to restore the temporal
power of the Pope. Signor Crispi demands
that he be allowed TO deal with 1reer
hand with matters relating to the Vatican.
Another Italian grievance is the avoid
ance of Emperor Francis Joseph TO return
King Humbert's visit to Vienna. Emperor
Francis Joseph offered to go to Turin, but
King Humbert declined to receive him
anywhere except at Rome, holding that
refusal of the Austrian Emperor to go
there was equivalent to a refusal on the
part of Austria to recognize Rome as the
Capital of Italy. The personal and court
feuds with the Quirinal and Vienna are of
| the most intense nature, and hamper the
| relations of the Governments.
| The National Zeit1mg states that Chan
cellor Won Capriri will also go to Madrid,
| where he will stay three days. This re-
news the reports that communications are
being exchanged looking to concerted &C.
ton by Germany, Austria, Italy and Spain,
in retaliation for the adoption of the new
| tariff legislation by the United States.
The grand celebration Of the ninetieth
anniversary of Won Moltke's birthday takes
place tomorrow. Bismarck has not yet
replied to Emperor Williams invitation to
attend the celebration.
