path OF political finance which it has trod-

Inquiries from the foreign office as to the
attitude of the government towards the
issue. In reply the foreign Office informed
the bankers present the political situation
afforded no occasion for the government to
interfere in any form. The chancellor did
not deign in reply to convey the slightest
idea OF approval. Bankers, the reply de-
clared, are in most cases perfectly capable
OF acting upon their own Judgment.
This semi-oficial statement wants frank
ness in suppressing the fact that German
houses before joining the syndicate were
led to believe the foreign office favored the

Waldersee's restoration to imperial favor,
states the Emperor has nominated him to
command the Garde du Corps. This will
keep Won Waldersee in Berlin and give
him the ear of the Emperor, with whom he
will have greater influence than ever.
In the interview, Captain Bingham,
military attache of the American legation
here, who has just returned from the Ger
man military maneuvers, dilated upon the
courtesy he had received from the Bavarian
and Russian authorities, who gave him
every opportunity to see everything of
interest. Captain Bingham said he was
greatly impressed by the wonderful
uniformity Of training shown by the
soldiery on parade, as well as in the field.
The marching power of the German army,
be declared, was almost incredible. Speak
Ing OF the lighting qualities of the army,
Captain Bingham said the main factor in
real war IS the marching quality of the
men, adding: when you can count on
having y our forces always on hand at the
right moment you can win by force Of
numbers"
Captain Bingham spoke in the highest
terms of praise of Emperor Williams un-
firing energies in the saddle. 'His
majesty" said he, ''took the field at 4
o'clock in the morning and remained until
O'Clock in the afternoon. Even the EN-
press whe attended the reviews, remained
in the saddle for four hours, although
the heat aud dust were sitting.
She smilingly saluted the troops as thew
passed, filling the soldiers with the great
est enthusiasm" In conclusion, Captain
Bingham said he had learned enough of
value and interest to the American army
to compensate him for his fortnight's ia
tigue and hard riding
