BERLIN, Nav 9-ReichstaS to-day finally
passed the sugar bill by vote of 1853 to l25.
The session adjourned until Monday, after
giving three cheers for the emperor.
The week was full of legislative work.
The trades regulations bill, which had been
before the house for year, was passed by
large majority, the only opponents OF the
measure being Socialists.
The closing tussle over the sugar bill
arose from an amendmentoferedb ya men,
Der of the Center party providing that a
consumption tax Of Is marks be levied, and
that bounties be gradually abolished
being given during the first
three years and one mark for the following
two years.
Sugar members warmly opposed the
amendment
Chancellor Won Caprivi supported the
amendment and declared that II the amend
ment was rejected the government would
bring bill next year which would make no
provision for the abolition of bounty. Upon
this declaration OF the government the
stand in the matter of opposition gave way
and the amendment was accordingly
adopted.
The act Of the Brussels anti-slavery con-
ference was also adopted.
Proposals for reforms in telegraph serv-
ices had TO be postponed until the Novem-
Der session. pending further report Of com
mittee on subject.
The talk in the lobby attributed the ex-
petition with which the relchstag closed to
the fears of the government Of the sudden
aDparition of Prince Bismarck in the house
with bomb shell utterance against the
AuStro-German commercial treaty, the
governments labor measures and its gen.
eral internal policy
Deputies Slumm and Candorf went to
FREDERICKSBURG on Wednesday, with the
object of asking the prince what his in
tentions are.
Bismarck advised energetic opposition to
the sugar bill, and promised to lead as &c
tive aggression against the governments
projects when he took his seat in the house.
He declared. however, not to take his seat
until autumn, when the measures imperil-
ing the interests of the country would make
his presence necessary.
He used the same language to the de-
putation of electors of Gestemunde, add
ing that he was not willing to return to
Berlin. The prospect was painful he said
Of meeting former friends who had
separated from him since his fall from
power He declared that the experience
would be like that of living under the same
roof with a divorced wife. He would not
appear as the leader of any party. His
sympathy remained with the old Carteller
and it grieved him to see the former coali-
ton broken and factions attacking each
other with personal invective.
The tenor of the princes utterances con-
firms the declaration regarding his attitude
in the reichstag. The prince seems to form
a coalition Of conservative and national
Liberals against the government.
The emperor's perception of coming dan
ger melted him to give expression to his
stand in his speech at Dusseldorf, which
was an outspoken menace against systematic
opposition.
The papers differ over the exact words
used by his majesty on that occasion. The
accepted version makes him say, after re-
ferring to the opponents of his labor and
commercial policy: ''One alone Is mas ter
in this country-It Is l. None other shall
/ suffer near mel"
The official version Of the speech was
modified somewhat after days of minis
terial deliberation on this autocratic tru1n-
peting, but the words remain, and they
will abide branded in the memory Of the
nation.
If Prince Bismarck were leader in the
conventional struggle against the fright
divine'' and militarism, the emperor's rash
utterance would be strong weapon of at
tack
The emperor arrived at Darmstadt to-
day from Karlsruhe He is going to Schlitx
His recent remarks to the students at
Bonnezm was to praise both the beer drink
ing and duellins habits of the students.
His majesty heartily commended duelling,
but not drinking. He said he hoped that as
long as German students corps existed the
spirit fostered in the corps by trials of
strength and courage would be preserved,
''Und dass sic zu allen zieten freudig den
schlager feg fueheren werden," said the
emperor which students cheered.
The imperial encouragement is bitter
disappointment to the agitators against the
duelling practice, but the emperor's utter
ance is in direct sympathy in German uni
versities.
Princess Bismarck is seriously i'll with
asthma. She finds great difficulty in
breathing and has frequent fainting at
tacks
The strike Of miners in Westphalia has
ended in the submission of the men.
The lower house of the Prussian diet to-
day voted 10000 marks for Professor
koch's institute.
Professor Virchow opposed the grant,
and denounced Kochism, claiming that it
had proved failure. He warned doctors
who were using the lymph that they ran
great risk il they persisted in treating
their patients with the alleged remedy"
