Perlin Sent 2s--The speeches OF NJ. RlDot ana
Chancellor Won Caprvi have produced an eXcelient
impression here allaying the teelng OIL uncertainty
as regards the political OUTLOOK
Tho ontir,ist speeches of Chancellor Caprivi,
pronounced soon after the edct ordering Teaxauon
in the passport system applied TO Alsace-LorrSne IN
d,cata a sudden change in the attitude OF Germany
A tsw davs before the young Emperor William II had
recalled at the Erfur banquet that Napoleon l naa
,umhed Germany in that same city in 1907 and that
france had been more than humbled, in her turn at
sedan and Paris; and he had appealed to his officers
~ cet ready for The approaching inevitable war. Now
ALI this is changed and the maintenance of European
mace seems 10 be the watchword OF Germany, whlch
Is invited to forget the wacht Rhein" The latest
correspondence from Buda Pesth to European papers
nav expain this sudden modification Of sentiment in
German Official circles 1t is said that while emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria was attending the great
1aanoeuvres recently executed by his AustroHungaran
troops the leading Msgyars, who dislike Germany per-
taps still more than they hate Russia used their in
ruence over the Emperor in an snti-German direction
The "oasus foederis," or cases in which the new
AustroGerman treaty of the Triple Alliance would
compel the two allies to support each other, had not
yet been practically determined in the text OF the
tneaty. II is said that Emperor Francis Joseph has
finally decided to recognize "casus f"ederis" only
the three following circumstances First, attack by
France on Italy secondly, an attack by France on
Germany, and thirdly, an attack by Russia on AStr9
Of the in which Germany would take the offensive
and attack either France or Russia and this may ex-
plain. In part the sudden peaceful and cptmst att
tudc OF Chancellor Won Caprivl.
