The semi-official announcement that
Chancellor Caprivi will accompany
Emperor William on his visit to the
czar in August, converts the meeting
from an exchange of imperial courtesies
into a diplomatic event. Prior to the
visit, the Italian premier, Crispi, will
come here for conference with Caprivi,
after seeing the Austrian premier,
Kalnoky. These moves have distinct
relation to the renewal of negotiations
for the settlement of the Bulgarian
question. Russia persists in refusing to
recognize Prince Ferdinand, but will
recognize the Bulgarian premier, Stam-
boulof. The government after the de-
parture of Ferdinand will send a Russian
commissioner to offer the Bulgarian
people as alternative candidates for the
throne, the Duke of Leuchtenberg or
Prince Karl, son of the king of Sweden.
The German, Russian and English dip
lomats at Constantinople are to be re-
placed by new men who will work to-
tendency of these changes is rather
favorable to the renewal of the czar's in
fuence in the Balkans, but not anything
approaching his former dominance there,
so Austria may escape.
Although the vote of the committee
on the army bill approved the essential
features of the measure, its ultimate fate
is uncertain. Opposition to increase
tho arpnU and CantinoaDt in fouor Of
reduction of the terms of service, is
growing larger. There have been sent
to the reichstag petitions against in
crease from many districts.
A deputation of Conservatives from the
fourth district of Potsdam, urged Bis
marck to accept the candidature for the
seat in the reichstag made vacant by the
death of Wedell. Bismarck promised to
give the proposition favorable considera-
ton, and this is taken to mean that he
will stand. The members of the reich
stag already foresee that the prince IS
presence there will produce the group
ing of a new party under his lead.
The American rifemen are meeting
with an extremely cordial reception.
The government has instructed the
German officials in East Africa to pre-
vent Emin Pasha from entering Uganda
while negotiations are pending between
Germany and England relative to terri
tory in Africa.
1t has been decided to appoint a col
onial council, to take cognizance of the
increasing mass of colonial work. The
council will be composed of persons who
have won recognition as explorers in
Africa and other countries.
An enormous meeting of Social Dem
oerats was held at Moabit, near Berlin.
An immense building was packed to
suffocation; thousands were unable to
obtain admission, and held overflow
meetings. The meetings were very ex-
citing. The speakers freely criticised
the socialist and labor policy of the en-
peror. The meeting passed resolution
censuring the kaiser for his labor re-
scripts. The day was past, the resolu-
ton set forth, when Germany could be
governed by rescripts. The people de-
mand a full and unrestrained share in
the government of the empire, which
could not be with safety denied them.
