BERLIN, March 26.-The emperor means
to give himself and his new ministers a
period Of rest from parliamentary worries
by immediate prorogation Of both the
Reichstag aud tho Landtag. The former
body viii be prorogued next week for an
indefinite period. The Landtag will be
nominally prorogued until the end OF Octo-
Der, but it will not meet again for
business until new house Is
elected. In view Of the suspension Of
parliamentary life it will be futile to study
how the political groups will rearrange
themselves under tue Prussian ministerial
| changes. The members of the center party
in the Reichstag are already in revolt and
are ready to vote any way SO as to defeat
the government, but they are powerless, as
the remaining business stands TO do more
than assist in rejecting Of minor items Of
the budget
EULENBURG's ATTITUDE.
When Count Eulenburg, the new presi-
dent of the Prussian council Of ministers,
and DR.. Won Bosse the new minister of CO.
clesiastical affairs, public instruction and
medicinal affairs, meet the lower house OF
the Prussian diet Monday their attitude, it
can be predicted. will be friendly towards
the conservative and centerist groups.
| Count Won Eulenburg's whole record
is inconsistent with any policy
tending to an alliance of the
conservatives with the national liberals
under conditions giving liberal imprint to
| government legislation. Both he and DIR.
/ Won Bosse are bent to find some method Of
reconciling Catholics between the adjourn
ment Of the Lantag and the elections. The
ministers oan hope to renew the campact
with the clericals and then appeal to the
constituencies. This may SO alter the bal
ance Of the parties as to enable Count Won
Eulenburg to defy any possible liberal
| coalition.
HAS THE sUPPLRNEss OF AN EEL.
| Count Won Eulenburg's enemies say that
he has the suppleness of an eel and that he
will work to win with the conservatives
and a moderate liberal or conservative and
clerical alliance. In the meantime it ia as
certained that he means to try to prevent
an estrangement with the clericals concern
log his relations with Chancellor Won
| Ceprivi. Nothing is surer than that the
| latter opposed the appointment OF Count
Won Eulenburg as his successor as president
OF the council, knowing as he did that
| Count Won Gutenberg, as Prussian premier,
would be dangerous rival for the imperial
chancellorship.
| BISMARCK AND Won EULRNBURG.
Prince Bismarck, when chancellor, found
Count Won Eulenburg too astute and OF toe
strong personality. He picked a quarrel
with him ana elected him from the minis
| try OF the interior Ia 1881. After an inter-
val of some months Prince Bismarck ap-
| pointed him president Of the government
Of Hesse Nassau. The count is
an ADLER orator than Chancellor
| Won Caprivi. and will make bigger
figure in the Prussian diet. The duration
OF the present provisional arrangement
after the Prussian elections is improbable.
Those best acquainted with Count Won
Eulenburg back him as succeeding In GUST
ing Chancellor Won Caprivi from the PrusA
sian ministry and from the imperial
chancellorship within the current year.
DIR. Won BOSSES RECORD.
The emperor selected Or. Won Bosse as be-
| ing sympathetic with his social and religious
reforms He is pious withous being a
| pietist, a conservative but no reaotionIst.
| DR.. Won Bosse is notable among the minis
ters as an eager supporter Of anti-drink
| legislation. he 10 an anti-duelis aud a
| social purity man.
THE EDUCATIONAL BILL.
There was highly interesting discussion
In the Reichstag to-day on Herr Richter's
| questioning Chancellor Won Caprivi re-
| garding the attitude OF the government to
the clerical view as 10 the probable
abandonment OF the primary educational
| bill. The chancellor replied that he found
1t impossible to carry out the policy of
barter implied in the declarations
| OF Prince Bismarck. He said It
| would be SHINING against the
| German empire TO purchase benefits for It
| at the expense of Prussia. The aDxietiss he
had endured as president of the PrusSian
| ministry has been the greatest Of his life. 1t
| would strengthen the stability of the empire
| of Prussian affairs. Germany, he declared
| would come out Of the present crisis with
renewed force arising from the ministerial
/ changes.
Herr von Bennigsen next took the credit
for leading the opposition to success against
| the education proposals. The national lib
| arals and members of the freisinnige party
| heartily appauded his references to the agi-
! tation against the bill.
Herr Liebknecht expressed for the social
lists their rejoicing over the collapse OF a
measure which had menaced religious free
| dom in Prussia. He concluded with the
rather irrelevant declaration that, despite
stroug party and political divisions, Ger
many, IL attacked bJ France or Russia,
Chancellor Won Ceprivi remains as the
representative of the Prussian ministry In
| the Bundesraih.
RETDRN OF THE EMPRESS.
| The emperor returned to Berlin this even~
| ing from HubertusStook. He was met at
the station by the empress Gen. Won Wit
| itch and other officials. He was enthusi-
astically cheered by the people on the streets
as he drove to the castle. He looked we'll.
| He showed no traces OF his
recent illness. His attendants state that
| the cold from which he suffered only
slightly affected his respiration. He daily
took hard gallops through the forest roads
| at Hubertusstook. He has not been troubled
with his ear malady, his attendants say, for
| weeks.
The Deconto Gesselschaft, with the Roths-
childs Of London, are making arrangements
| to issue In May an Austria Hungarian gold
loan Of 100. .000, 900 florina
A REVOLT AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT.
The conservative, national. liberal and
| Polish parties held meeting to-day and
decided TO support the credit asked for the
construction Of new ironcads. Members
Of the center party also met to-day and
definitely decided 10 oppose the credit, thus
starting an open revolt against the govern
