BERLIN, Oct. Especial The long
distance military ride is the one topic
OF conversation in this city. All classes
OF inhabitants are interested in tho
event. which has totally collapsed poll
tics and everything else. Despite the
disappointment Of the Germans at tho
winning OF the race by an Austrian and
the better general time made by theu.
they are lavishing every hospitality
upon them. The latter have been feted
and dined by the officers Of different
crack regiments. To day series of
great races were given in their honor.
Emperor William will return Monday
evening from Woimer, whittier he has
gone to attend the golden wedding cele-
bration of tho grand duke OF Sake
Weimer, whom he will give the Austrians
q dinner. He will also visit the stables
where the Austrians' horses are kept.
Some OF the horses are irreparably in
Jurcd. In ono stall at the stables is n
beautiful marc with both her hlr hoofs
split She is steam ing and sweating
and is evidently in great agony. She
made tho distance from Florisdorf to
Berlin in eighty.two hours.
OF the fifty others inspected. fifteen
are disabled for life. Tho thorough.
breds suffered most. The condition of
tho animals is pitiable. Their sides are
sunlien in and it seems as though their
spines were twisted awry. Some Hun
garian horses that "ra scarcely bigger
than ponies, seem to be in ! wonderfully

the borses that have died in Berlin can

either MIGUEL or Won Gutenberg, presi-
dent of tho Prussian Council of Minis
tiers, in regard to the measure. 1t is
predicted that the chancellor will dis
solve the Reichstag if the bill fails TO
pass.
Tho radical papers are jubilant over
this outlook and express the hopo that
in the event of dissolution their par,y
will mako great gains. The Vossische
Ieitung says to-day that there is no
chance of the bill passing, and that tho
dissolu zion will only strengthen the Cd.
position and compel Chancellor Won
Caprivi to resign. The chancellor, in
the meantime, circulates stor that
the bill as now proposed is practically
the same as the ono prepared bv Prince
bismarck, which had the approval of
Count Won Waldersee. who was then
secretary OF war, and that there is no
truth in the reports that either the
chief OF staff or the minister OF war dis.
agree as to its provisions.

POLITICS IN VIRGINIA.
Sweeping Democratic Majority is Now
Confidently Predicted.

confidently Predicted.
RICHMOND, Oct. s. Tho great victory
scored Wednesday by tho Democrats of
Georgia has had most depressing ef-
feet upon the leaders OF the PEOPLES
party here. These gentlemen, while
they wero doubtless almost prepared to
receive information of q reverse in that
State, hardly supposed that 1t would be-
such an overwhelmh rout as Ii has
turned out to be.
The Virginia Democrats are, of
course, rejoicing at the splendid victory
their party has won in Georgia. 1t will
encourage them to removed efforts and
offers great stimulus to endeavors to
make the majority in Virginia as largo
as possible. Hon. j. Taylor Ellyson.
fora er chairman of the State com
mittee, and now II mem ber of the execu-
tive committee, has recently declared
that he will not be surprised IL the
Democratic majority in Virginia reaches
$4,000
Others loss sanguine, probably, have
named tfteen or twenty thousand as
high water mark. Since tho results n
Florida and Georgia these more conser-
vativs counters say they will not be as
tonished If the Democratic majority
largely exceeds their former estimates.
The party is in excellent condition, and
the effect OF tho great victory so re-
comfy achieved in her sister Southern
States promises to manifest itself in the
work OF the closing weeks Of the cam
paign here.
