The third party is gradually decreas-

LOTHAIRE BUCHER DEAD.
One Of the Most Remarkable Men OF Mod
ern Germany.

Berlin, Oct. 13.-Lothaire Bucher
is dead. He was one of the most remark
able men that modern Germany has
produced. He was a scholar, statesman,
dploniatist, journalist and wit, an ora
tor o' fiery elOquence, a thinker Of care
ful and honest convictions. writer OF
versatility and epigrammatlc keenness.
a radical from conviction, he made him
self so obnoxious to the Government IN
the stormy political days Of 1913 %
that he was arrested and TIED fer yl0-
lent attacks on the ruling powers of
Prussia. On the last day of the trial
Bucher learned from a friend of high
influence that his conviction was a fore
gone conclusion. He received the note
while in court. He tucked a bundle Of
papers under his arm and walked bare
headed into the garden round the court
house, as if TO get breath or two 0f
fresh air. and at the court ard gate
stepped into a cab, which carried him to
a railway station.
Three days later he was in London.
Subsequently he was called back to Ber-
lin by Bismarck, who had just begun
his national policy in grand style, and
was placed in the foreign office. Bis
marck rarely did q more startling thing
than he did in making this appointment.
Bucher was known as THE Red, The
Radical" and The Socialist, yet I've
was made one of the first aides Of the
man, who. above all others in Prussia.
held radicalism and socialism in abhor-
renee. In the foreign office Bucher
wrote most delicate state papers, con-
trolled his press bureau and drew up
his most important bills. lie went
wherever Bismarck went, advising. criti-
ciSing and occasionally executing some
delicate mission. SO constant was his
attendance upon the chancellor that he
became known as Bismarck right
hand" the Pocket Bismarck and Bis
marck's shadow" He gradually climbed
the ladder of inoffensive honors, becom-
ing councillor and priyy court council
lor.
But the expected foreign mission never
came, and when Herbert bismarck en,
tered the foreign Office Bucher realized
that his career was at its end, and he
resigned. Bismarck wrote 10 hiln;
let you go, dear Bucher on the condi-
ton that you will come again when 1
need you" And Bucher answered /;
wv hen your Excellency needs me, L VIII
come
When Bismarck fell, Buchcr was called
to FrirlcriChSruhe and lac remained with
the ex-Chancellor until death separated
them. Recently lac has been compiling
Bismarck's memoirs, and the completion
Of this work must now be given 10 less
skilled hands. Had he lived. Bucher would
have been sevrnty-fiye years old on tins
