Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1891-03-01


determination 10 obtain from the French
Government some form of satisfaction Tor
the treatment accorded his mother. There
arc rumors that Caprlyi VIII he ousted
from his position and that Count Won
Munster will be recalled, though IN tho
mean time there IS no accurate Indication
of the imperial feeling towards either OF
these officials.
Count Won Munster certainly will not
long remain at his present post, nor Will
N. Herbette, whom the Emperor now re-
CARDS with such aversion, as to justify Al.
| Rbot in recalling him.
THE LATE CHIEF OF STAFF CALLED TO BERLIN.
The Emperor rs soon as he perceived
! that a crisis was impending sent atelegram
summoning Count Won Waldersee from Al
! iona, where he was stationed after his re-
moval from the position Of chief OF stan.
/ The General arrived Thursday and took
/ dinner with the Emperor. The ostenslble
| cause Of the EmperOrs summOnng Gene
raj Waldersee was the formation or
! dining club, consisting Of those who ac-
/ companiod the Emperor on his various
tours. After a long conference General
/ Waldersee returned 10 Atonn. Nobody
/ doubts that his visit had reference to the
! situation. The Emperor also held con-
sultation with Herr Miguel, who is now
/ the favorito minister and whose position
! has been strengthened by the advice he
proGered on the eve Of Empress frede-
! rick's departure not TO stay in Paris more
I than three days. This Paris incident ls
/ triumph for Prince Bismarck.
! CRITICISM or TIE BIsMARcKIAH PRESS.
The HAMBURGER N0ciriCbten holds that tho
| French outbreak yindicates the bismarck
! inn system and advises the Emperor TO re-
! turn to the old policy which regarded
! France as an unappeasible enemy. Tho
/ Prince can point TO his successtul opposition
/ TO the project OF Empress Frederick, when
/ her husbands illness Was declared grave,
! 10 take him Tor the winter to the south or
Trance. Bismarck held that although the
French might have treated dying man
with respectful sympathy for time, some
sudden popular exqltation mlgnt tn~a Lt
/ every provision and that the risk ought
not to De run.
PRINCE HOHKNLoHE TOO PREVIOUSLY
HOPEFUL.
| The well-grounded criticisms of the Bis
MARKHAM press Will not tend TO allay tho
/ Emperor's irritation. The renewal OF the
Z pqsspOrt restrictions in AlssCe-LOrraine IL
. the subject of diverse comment. Prince
Won HOhenlOc-S chillingtuTst, the Governor
/ of Aleace-L orTaine. speaking at banquet
| AT Strasburc on Wednesday, expressed the
conviction that the relations with France
we're so amelorated that the motives tor
the passport restrictions were lessenlnS.
! He therefore nOurished the hope that he
| would soon see rc-establlshed the normal
relations between the two countries. The
next morning Chancellor Won Caprlvi teie-
craphed the decree enhancing the restIlc-
tons.
NO MORE AMICABHE RELATIONS.
The Vossiscbe Ze,ti,nq says that IN connec-
zion with the Governors cOncillatory
speech the Chancellor's telegram unmista-
| kablv shows that the decree IS response
TO the violation OF the laws OF hospitality
/ on the part of tho French, and 1t expresses
/ the fact that the German Government re-
pudiates the idea of further cher1shlng
! hopes Of establishing the amlcaDle rela-
| tions expressed by the Governor OF Alsace-
/ Lorraine.
| A sTREAI OF COLD WATER on PARIS
The National Gazff'e likens the decree TO
n stream of cold water poured on Paris.
| In order TO leave no doubt about the feel
! inc existing the Berlin B0rsen Courier holds
! that Germany now finds herself con-
strained to maintain indefinitely those
measures Of precautiOn against France,
| which would be otherwise enforced only
( against Chauvinists like DerOulede and his
| colleagues.
TONE or THE PRESS, IS A WHOLE, CALM.
The TdocjGt remarks that the people OF
| Alsoce-L Orraine must again feel that every
}
/ Eleiup journal admits that the attitude OF
| the French Government was correct The
/ nopulace also did not fail IN showing re-
/ snact TO the Empress. Only a small group
! of Chauvinists, it SAYS, were Responsible
| for the treatment Of the Empress. Taxing
| the press as q whole the tone Is calm, with
! the exception OF the Cologne GdzeHe ana
| other advocates of Hsmarcklan policy,
| which are bent on making political capital
! out of the imbroglo.
UNANIMIrY or THE PRESS.
The North German Gazette refers 10 the
unanimitv shown by the press. 1t saws
} that iudoiuc from the recent incidents IN
/ France. the unity Of feeling is q sure guar
: ontee that III the event of any inquiry
/ arising or in the event of the interests OF
! the people demanding the intervention OF
| the country all Germans, from the Alps to
| the sea. would combine III behalf OF our
| great fatherand.'
! BISMARCK FOR THE REICHsTAG.
! Despite Prince Bismarck's refusal to
! stand as o candidate for the Reichstag for
J the Nineteenth district of Hanover, Herr
| School. prominent National Liberal
member of the lower house OF the Prus-
! sian Diet, asks the electors TO return Prince
/ bismarck. declaring that he will not re-
! fuse TO serve now that there Is prospect
I of a crisis in GermaDys foreign affairs. III
! il stated that Herr Schoot has prompted
| the FREDERICKSBURG District Committee TO
make arrangements for the election Of
! Prince Bismarck.
BIZZY's vAULTING AMBITION.
| The Borsen Courier. discussing the r6e
Prince Bismarck might play in the Reich
/ stag. saws that if il were not for hrs Excess
| sIve ambition he would be of the greatest
! service. Ii, however, he should attempt TO
/ dominate the House or to lead an attack
/ upon the Government, the aureoia or his
| reputation would not hinder his being
| treated as partisan.
THE BALL INCIDENT AT VIENNA.
The incident which took place at the
| ball given by Prince Reuss, the German
! Ambassador at Vienna, has resulted IN the
! recall of Young Nacaresco. The Rou-
! manian Government sent a special envoy
! 10 in0uire into the insult offered to NJ.
| Vacaresco. Count Calnoky, the Prime
| Minister, was interviewed. He admitted
| that the Roumanian Minister had the
right 20 demand satisfaction. Prince
| Reuss expressed regret for the incident.
| The opinion of society pities the sufferer.
| The Princess who offered the insult by
| orderinc Vacaresco to leave the room Is
strongly blamed.
SERVICE PREMIUMS TO ARMY OFFICERS.
The Reischtag to-day resumed debate on
| the bill providing for the payment OF pre-
nuns to non-commlssioned army officers.
Dr. Windhorst spoke in defence OF his mo-
ton 10 grant non-commissionedo officers at
| FER twelve years service premium OF 1000
marks. Herr Richter said that the pay
| ,nent of premiums was not desirable. The
nrast;on dld not involve the defence of
either the Emperor or the country.
THE MILITARY Defence OF THE COUNTRY.
chancellor Won Caprivi believed that
rIerr Richter was q bad judge of what con-
ce S the dignity of the army or. the
este,v of the country. The Freissinige
Ss,,,ties, he said, professed sometimes to
s,,pnort the Government, but they invs-
LILY maintained negative attitude or
tr;ed 10 defeat ministerial bills. No Gov
srnmept could rely upon the fressinige
