William in London. The semi
official papers adopt guarded tone
and avoid all reference TO an alli-
ance with England as an accom-
plished fact. These papers simply
re-echo the Emperor's speech at
Gulldhall. The North German Ga
zette remarks that the Emperor's
utterances coincide completely with
the views of the industrial and en-
ergentic people of Great Britain,
who favor the maintenance of
peace. The independent papers
criticize the Emperor's reception as
emphasizing the friendly senti-
ments of England toward Ger
many and toward the Emperor, as
a relative of the royal family, with
out being Il popular Endorsement of
Lord Salisbury's policy. The
treisinnige Zeitung holds that the
general character of the celebra-
tions IN honor of the Emperor, and
especially those of the court and
Government, accordingly must be
taken as an open declaration of
England's adhesion to the Drei-
bund. Articles in the Russian and
French press, illustrating the in
tensity of the irritation felt in Rus
STA and France toward England, ARE
largely quoted.
THE KAsERs VISIT ARRANGED FOR
POLITICAL PURPOSES.
New YORK, July 11.-Smalley's
special cablegram to the Tribune
from London says: Probably the
most important incident Of the
German Emperors visit to Eng
land is that which begins to.mor-
row and ends Monday, his visit to
Lord Salisbury at Hatfield. Then,
if not before, ii is certain that BUSH
ness will be done. The absolute
master OF the most powerful army
in the world and the virtual master
of the most powerful fleet will not
meet and separate without eX-
changing views on several subjects.
One subject interesting to both
is the use which each shall make of
The feet or army. What has gone
before did not prepare the way for
the interview and this discussion.
Certainly it is not mere chance
that brings the Emperor here at
this moment, Just after his alliance
with Austria and the King of Italy
has been made public No more
is it by chance that the Emperor of
Austria and the King Of Italy
have been visiting the English
feet and toasting the English
Queen, while their great ally was
visiting England itself as her
Queens guest, and to no slight de-
gree the guest also of the English
people Were he merely, like the
Queen, the reigning monarch over
Il country where Parliament gov
ems, his visit to England would
mean much less, though it would
mean much, and his visit to Hat
field might mean next to nothing
Being u King, and the Emperor
over forty millions Of valiant and
sober-mindcd Germans; it is incon-
ceivable that he should not ex-
change views with Salisbury on
the relations of the two powers,
and most improbable that the
good understanding certainly eX-
isting between them should not be
strengthened. OF course nobody
knows what has passed between
them.
THE LASTING PEACE OF EUROPE.
Peace, the lasting peace of
Europe, is more likely because of
their meeting. So it is, in meas
ure. because of the Emperor's
speech at Guildhall. There is in
his peace assurances a ring of sim
certify. Here in England, whatever
may be thought abroad, the people
do feel that peace is more assured
than it was. In Russia and France
neither his Guildhall speech nor
any utterance of his is likely to be
we'll received. There comes al
ready from st. Petersburg an ON
nous whisper that the Emperor's
magnificent reception in England
has given umbrage to the Gar. In
France everybody knows what feel
ing there is, whether whispered or
shouted. The Emperor has spoken
publicly, and far more often private
ly, of his delight in the welcome
given him, and of his fresh appre-
citation of what is most character
istic and most splendid in English
life. What has happened off Venice
makes, like a recent event at Flume,
a strong impression abroad, prob
ably stronger than in England.
Here people think it possible for
emperors and kings to go on board
British ship from motives of cur
iosity or oivility without deep
Interior designs. Not SO on the
Continent, and when two such in
cidents occur in quick succession
the significance of them seems ali
the greater while the German En-
peror is the guest of the Queen Of
England. Bear in mind, says a
Berlin naner. the character of the
