BERLIN, Sept. l2.-There was parade OF
all the troops stationed in the Cassel dis
trict to-day, which afforded brilliant
spectacle. The emperor and empress, the
King of Saxony, Grand Duke of Hesse.
Grand Duke Of Sake w eimar, the Duke Of
Edinburgh, Prince andPrincess Henry of
Prussia, Prince Alhrecht and others of high
rank were present at the ceremony. Empe-
ror William will now go to Erfurt, where
he will review the Fourth army corps.
coNsID Erred MENACING.
Some of the phrases used by the emperor
in his speech at the banquet at Cassel have
added to the uneasiness which now prevails
throughout the country. He recalled the
time. when as a staff officer, he entered
Cassel in 1871 with the victorious Hessian
troops He trusted, he said, that the Hes
slams, in the event Of foreign struggles,
would help him to fulfill his duties
Coming 80 soon after the allusIons
made at Munich to the future triumphs Of
the Bavarian troops, the emperor's utter
ance at Cassel is felt to be a yelled menace
to foreign enemies end as warning for the
country TO courageously prepare for trouble
Still the conviction remains unshakeu in
official circles here that prolonged period
OF diplomatic intrigue will precede a col
lision Of the powers.
RUDINI's NEW ATTITUDE.
The leading political development of the
week has been the practical adhesion of the
the Italian prime minister, the Marquis di
Rudini, to the policy Of Lord Salisbury, the
English premier. The Sultan Of Turkey's
new bias in the direction of favoring
Russia, as instanced in the Darda-
nelles affair, will now have 10 bear
the weight Of the counter influence
Of Austria and Italy, and probably Ger
many, for it is stated that Herr Won
Rsdowitz, the German ambassador to the
porte, at an audience with the sultan on
Wednesday last, urged that a favorable
hearing be given to the view Of Great
Britain, aud through his representations
Sir William White, the British ambassador
to Turkey, was given an audience by the
sultan yesterday.
GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION.
The gravity Of the situation Is indicated
in summons calling the envoys of the
porte at Vienna, Berlin, ST. Petersburg and
London to Constantinople. The French
ambassador. the Count of Monteoello. who
was on tho eve of presenting his letters of
! recall to the sultan, has been instructed by
| his government TO remain at his pos
to prevent the sultan, unaer pres
| sure OF other diplomats, from weakening
aud breaking his resolutions. The latest in
| telligence from Constantinople indicatel
| the continuous success of Franco Russia
diplomacy in Turkey. The sultan has Of
fered place in the ministry TO ChakIr
Pasha, declared partisan of the Russian
alliance, and known to be a foe Of England
and the dreibuud.
ENGLAND's ONLY COURSE.
The foreign office here regards England's
| difficulty with complacancy. Lord Sails
bury's solicitations for diplomatic aid forces
England into closer union with the triple
alliance and thus tends in the direc-
ton of bringing about a for.
NAL compact between England
ana Germany. Austria and Italy. Hitherto
Lord Salisbury h0s rejected all overtures
looking to England's becoming a party to
| the dreibund compact. The Hamburg
| Correspondent publishes an article on the
Derdanelles incident and makes the state
ment that Russia Is preparing q coup by
which she will seize the Bosphorus.
MAY SEIZE rENEDos.
| A report which 10 circulated in diplomatic
circles credits England with AN intention to
seize and fortify Tenedos and other islands
at the mouth Of the Dardanell es in the event
Of failure to establish renewed entente
with the porte. The Post points out how
the triple alliance fuRy DO drawn into inter-
vening through Marquis di Rudini
committing Italy to an active armed
support of England. There is a hitch in
the negotiations for a new Russian loan.
Agreements ought to have been signed to-
day by French financiers. The situation
prevailing has increased the risk, aud they
now want lower terms, and are Offering 80
against the first price, which was 80.
GERMANY's GRAIN DUTIES.
The agitation looking to the abolition Of
the grain duties in Germany is becoming
less ferVent under better weather, increased
supplies and lower prices Wheat was
quoted week ago at 232 marks for
900 kilos To-day the quotation was
231 marks. The prices ofrye show a cor
responding decline. This difference alone
does not affect the public demand for the
abolition of the duties, but the conviction
that the government has decided 10 at least
reduce the duties when the official inquiry
into the subject is completed, appeases tbs
clamor.
NOT WILD OVER TIE KAISER.
The Munich TagebLatt denies the ofT1cia
corded an enthusiastic reception on the oc-
casion Of his late visit to the Bavariau
capital. On the contrary, it says that he
was received with chilly indiffer-
ence by the people. IL attributeI
this TO the fact that the people
Of Bavaria see in the emperor an emblem
of the dearness of living and a source Of au
approaching war; threatening ruin OF the
country. II the imperial government, the
| Tage6lGH says, desired TO be loved instead
OF detested, It must cheaper food and abide
by the policy Of peace.
MUTINY on THE PINTO.
The Chilean warship Presidente Pinto
which has caused unessiness TO several OF
the powers by her attempts to procure
arms, is lying at Hamburg with her crew
mutinous Her commander asked the
assistance of the police to arrest three
sailors, but as the vessel belongs to foreign
power the police referred the request to the
senate. The men are riotous and refuse to
perform their work.
y Since the successful issue Of the negotia-
tions for treaty of commerce approaches
have been renewed by the triple alliance tC
embrace Belgium, Roumanie and Servia
within the zollyerein on special terms. II
the Berlin proposals ara accepted q con-
ference Of delegates will open Oct. Is.
The proposed socalistic congress al
Erfurt has been postponed until Oct. II.
| The congress will discuss revision of the
section Of the socialist party, and will re,
new the efforts TO overthrow Herren Bebel
Liebknecht and the other modergtes, whC
direct the socialist committee.
FREE LOVE SOCIALIST.
