BERLIN, May 7.-[Copyright, 1892, by
the New York Associated Press.l The
government awaits with considerable
anxiety the solution of the Italian min
isterial crisis. Although the triple al
lance was last year prolonged till 1897,
it is all important that the successor to
Rudini be man who will give genuine,
not merely verbal adhesion. Official ad-
vices point to the selection OF Sig.
Giolitti as Rudini's successor. The
North German Gazette says that
Giolitti would entirely support the
Crispi and Rudini foreign policy
and would not allow any reduc-
tion in the war budget or diminution Of
the military forces. Despite this as.
eurance, official circles undoubtedly fear
that Italy's economic weakness will be
a drag upon her effective action as an
ally. The crisis is likely to alter the
arrangements for the meeting OF EN-
peror William and King Humbert. The
situation causes decided weakness on
the bourses, both here and at Vienna,
as Rudini's defeat is felt here to have
an import far beyond Italy's domestic
interests.
RUSSO-GERMAN RELATIONS.
The Allgemeine Reich correspondent
announces positively that the czar is
coming to Potsdam. 1t is certain that
the attempts to renew the entente with
Russia, in the direction of negotiating
q commercial treaty, were baked by
st. Petersburg opposition, and even the
courtesy of visit from the cZar would
be welcome as tending to reconcilia-
ton. In the mean time. the anti-Ger-
man party prevails in Russia. The re-
preston of the German element in the
Baltic provinces is more severe than
ever. The use of the Russian language
is made compulsory in schools which
were heretofore exempt.
BOSTON BEASTS TRIAL.
The trial Of W. R. Whitney of Boston,
who is charged with a heinous offense
against morality, commenced here be-
hind closed doors. After q short hear
ing the case was adjourned to allow the
defense to call further witnesses.
A WORLDS FAIR MOVEMENT.
Ex-Minister Delbruck has become q
strong advocate OF the world g exhibition
at Berlin. At large industrial meet
ing, commenting upon the fact that
German commercial bodies wanted to
be internationally exhibited, Delbruck
attributed the desire to the favorable
influence of the new commercial treaties.
The movement for an International
show has spread. Agricultural bodies
are now preparing petition, which will
be presented to Chancellor Won Caprivi
in it's favor.
THE KELLEY CURE IN EUROPE.
Some American physicians, after FORM
ing Kelley institute at Copenhagen,
have come here to try to introduce the
cure.
MYTHICAL ESTATE.
The American legation here is flooded
with inquiries regarding the estate Of
Baron Fisher, who is said to have left
relatives in the United States. The
German authorities tell the legation that
the estate is entirely mythical.
RUSSIAN GRATITUDE.
Count Won Shouvaloff, Russian min.
lister, accompanied by his secretary,
called upon Minister Phelps in order tc
give quasi formal expression OF Rus
sia's qualification over the work of the
American relief commission.
