ence and prepared by Dsrlepsch have vet
received the tinsi imperial sanction. The
assent OF the BunHeSrath 20 the measures
Is doubtful. The ieCerai Governments do
not share the EUpsICr's eager haste for
reforms. The prospect is, therefore, that
when The Emperor opens the ReIchstag in
a speech iro,1 the throne announcing the
labor measures he will speak without the
quality Of Cttiljleness which characterized
the announce sment by BiSmarCk'S regime.
Beyond the pregnant fact, the Reicbstag
will be asked 10 grant military credit
probably OF $4,000 marks. Nothing is
known OF the Governments programme
The P.ogressionists' press indulges in
visions, il having in the tariff policy a re-
duction 0t duties on cereals and progressive
modlhcations oi customs so as TO abolish
taxation on articles that are absolutely
necessary tor the use of the people and
simultaneously the adoption of tariffs so
as to develop the indus. res of the country.
1t is not believed in official circles that
the Emperor will be rash enough to entan-
gle himself in the difficulties entailed by
revision OF the tariffs, which would in
volve complete reforms in the whole fiuan-
cial and fiscal system of the empire
Already the leading Federal Princes of
the empire are incredulous at the EN-
peror's capacity and scared by his methods
of governing, and are trying 10 tone down
his self-contidence. 1t is an open secret
that the Governments of Bavaria, Wur-
temburg and Saxony will not cooperate
In the Imperial measures unless the EN-
peror consults them on the more general
lines of his policy.
One of the chief features of moment is
the disunion among the Freisiennge party
since Freisiennges censured the leader
ship of Richter in the Landtag as dictato-
rial. In the face of the expected
coalition with the Conservatives, the
Imperialists and the right wing of the Ma
tional Liberals are forming a reactionary
group against the Liberal policy by the
Government. The Freisiennge party will
be compelled to close their ranks.
The Socialist leaders have a momentary
feud over the workmen's proposed celebra-
ton or May 1st.
The police have given warning that
they will not tolerate street demonstra-
tions.
The Post announces that the Military
bill prOyides for n large iDprease of tho
number of troops.
This afternoon the United States Minis
ter and the British and German representa-
tives deposited their formal ratification of
the Samoan treaty and signed the final pro-
tocol.
