BERLIN, February 2l.-Since the North
German Gazette gave an authorized but
doubtful denial of tho report that the
Ministerial Council had ever considered the
question Of prosecuting Prince Bismarck
two authentic utterances on the attitude
of Emperor William towards the Prince
have been permitted 10 transpire. Speak
ing to the Austrian Ambassador the
Kaiser said THE Duke of Lauenburg
Gas he styles the ex-Chancellor) will not
understand OF yield himself to the projects
,Mhlch are necessity OF my reign, but ~
has never been intended that the empires
tribunal should interfere to prevent him
from saying or writing whatever he
likes 80 long as he does not violate the
law" 1t is understood that the
halser's words were in answer TO informal
inquiries made by the Emperor Francis
Joseph in regard to the reports that the
German Government meant to take action
against Bismarck. Chancellor Won Caprivi
conversing with q member OF the Reich
stag, who is q contributor TO the press,
said: THE Government has not the re-
hottest intention of prosecuting either
Prince Bismarck or his newspaper organs
If the latter keep within legal bounds. we
can meet their criticisms through other
papers. As for the Prince, his personality,
associated as 10 is with the creation OF the
edlfice of the empire, places him above
measures that might be taken toward less
men,"
THE BITTERNESS AT FBIEBICHsRUHE NOT As
sUAGED.
The position of Emperor William and
Chancellor Won Caprivl is perfectly well
known at FREDERICKSBURG, and does not
assuage the bitterness of tone of the ex-
Chancellor's papers. Regarding the NORM
German Gd1ele's statement that Bismarck
would not be prosecuted an inspired COM
ment in the Hamburger Ndchrtchten lnslnu-
stes that the semi-official press, if not now
melted, was recently induced to urge, q
public prosecution and arraignment OF the
Prince of Ieze majesty The only right
attitude for the Prince" continues the
article, lis an aristocratio reserve against
the attacks of his enemies. The sole ques-
ton for him is whether to maintain the
opinions that caused his resignation or TO
surrender them in order TO regain the good
will OF the Kaiser He can leave Germany's
future TO justify his foresight
The Hamburger Ndchrielter's phrase "arls-
tocratic reserve" sent comforting glow
through official minds. raising hopes that
Bismarck has decided TO cease troubling
the Government. II is known that men,
bers of his family have been trying to per.
suade him to abandon his incessant war OF
opposition.
TRYING TO coNcILIATE THE OLD GENTLEMAN.
On the eve of starting on his tour of the
East Count Herbert Bismarck met his
brother William and his brother-in-law,
Count Rantzau, at Erfurt, and family
council was held. After a conference last
ing four hours Count Herbert was charged
with the task of demonstrating with his
father. This he found to be an unpleasant
duty, resulting in strong reprOaches on the
part Of the ex-Chancellor. The practical
public results of the interference by
the Count are intensified attacks by
Blsmark's organs upon the Empe-
rOr's home and foreign policies. Mean
time Emperor William has raised the
country's estimation of himself by the
character of the thinly-veiled illusions to
Prince Bismarok's enmitY in speech at
the Bradenburg Diet dinner. Referring to
the hostile criticisms of his policy the En-
peror said: THE spirit of disobedience IS
abroad, pursuing paths foreign to my
principles, and under perfectly trans
parent guise trying TO spread discomfort
among my subjects. This may be sub
ject Of regret-indeed, it makes my heart
sore-but it will not cause me TO swerye q
moment from the path of duty"
Everybody present caught up the reter-
ence and his speech was greeted with
burst Of cheers.
THE Ex-ESPREss's VISIT TO PARIS.
The Empress Frederick writes that she
is highly pleased with her reception In
Paris. Dispatches from the German En-
bassy reach the Emperor every moment.
In court circles not the slightest credence
is given to the rumor that Emperor VII
liam intends to visit France. The SEMI
official press treats the visit of the Empress
Frederick as purely private. but chronicles
every act of courtesy toward her on the
part of the French authorities.
The VOssiche Zeitung halls with acclama-
ton the event Of the eX-Empress's visit as
the dawn of prolonged era of peace, and
expresses the hope that France will accept
Germany's hand in friendship and throw
of the " haunting spirit Of revenge
The only Austrian comment worth re-
cording occurs IN the FrenndeHbldt, in which
a rapprochement of the two nations through
mutual interests and the arts and sciences
leading to O gradual reconciliation IS now
recognized 10 be possible.
"Ifp SAYS the FremdsnbldH, the issue be
successful it will be due wholly to the
splendid ambition of an extraordinary
monarch, who, though identified with the
German army, aims TO consolidate Euro
pean peace"
THE GERMAN FARMERS ALLIANCE.
The Government projects which menace
protected interests, agricultural and IN
dustral, are arousing keener opposition.
The German Farmers Alliance recently
adopted resolutions declaring that the
maintenance Of the corn laws was neces-
sary to the prosperity of the peasantry.
Count Won Moltke telegraphed to.a meeting
of the Alliance that he himself was farm
er and that they might rely upon his active
cooperation. Prince Bismarck has also
promised TO support the Alliance. An i'm
mense petition is being circulated Tor sig
natures in Hanover against reduction, OK
the tariff on Austrian corn. The Dresden
Ndchrichten declares that the measures otthe
Government menacing the prosperity OF the
country are producing q widespread teel-
inc of insecurity and awakening hOme-rule
tendencies in the German States federated
through Blsmarck's statesmanshlp; Inc

Gently requested Baron Won Berlepsch,
Minister Of Commerce, 20 explain the
official preference for foreign over German
coal. Baron Won Berlepsch replied by in
viting Herr Krupp's manager and dele
gates from mining firms TO hold con-
ference on the subject offoregn coal compe-
tition. The protection agitation Is fast
growing in potency and no corresponding
efforts are being made IN opposition 10 II.
ANOTHER REMEDY FOR TUBERCULOSIS.

tuberculosis as having nothing IN common

THE TONGUE OF AN ANGRY WOMAN.
A scandalous scene occurred at the bail
recently given at the German Embassy
in Vienna. During the height of the tes::
tiyities at the Embassy the Princess OF
Reuss wife of the German Ambassador,
called aloud 10 NJ. Yacaresco, an dHdche OF
the Roumanlan Legation and son OF the
Roumanian Minister, " | am astonished 70
