BERLIN, March 2G.-The Emperor means
to give himself and the new Ministers q
period of rest from parliamentary worries
by the immediate propagation of both the
Reichstag and the Landtag. The former
body will be prorogued next week for an in
definite rs-1od. The Landtag will not 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 parliament
hry life, it will be futile to study how the
political groups will -earrange themselves
under the 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 to do
more than assist in the rejection of minor
stems of the budget
When Count Won Eulenburg, the new
President of the Prussian Council of Min
listers, and DR.. Won Bosse, the new Minister
OF Ecclesiastical Affairs, Public Instruction
and Medicinal Affairs, met the Lower House
OF the Prussian Diet Monday their attitude,
At can be predicted, will be distinctly friend
1y toward the Conservative and Centrist
groups.
The Count Not Bred a Liberal.
Count Won Eulenburg's whole record is in
consistent 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 DR.. Won Bosse are bent to find
some method of reconciling the Catholics
between the adjournment of the Landtag
and the elections. The Ministers hope
TO renew the pact with the Clericals and tnen
appeal to the constituencies.
This may so alter the balance of the par
ties as TO enable Count Won Eulenburg to
defy any possible Liberal coalition. Count
Won Eulenburg's enemies say that he has
the suppleness of an eel and that he will
work to win with Conservative and Mod
crate Liberal or Conservative and Clerical
alliance. In the meantime, it is ascertained
that he means to try to prevent an estrange
ment with the Clericals concerning his
relations with Chancellor ven Caprivi.
Russia's New Premier No Doughhead.
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 Eulenburg, as Prussian Premier, would
be dangerous rival for the Imperial Chan
cellorship. Prince Bismarck, when Chan
cellor found Count Won Eulenburg too
astute and of too strong personality. He
picked a quarrel with him and elected him
from the Ministry of the Interior in 1881.
After an interval of some months, Prince
Bismarck appointed him President of the
Government of Hesse-Nassau. The Count
is an abler orator than General Won Caprivi,
and will make bigger figure in the Prus-
sian Diet.
The duration of the present provisional
arrangement after the Prussian elections, is
improbable. Those best acquainted with
Count Won Eulenburg back him as succeed
ing in ousting General Won Caprivi from the
Prussian Ministry and from the Imperial
Chancellorship within the current year.
An Estimate of the Other Man.
The Emperor selected DR.. Won Bosse as
being sympathetic with his social and re-
ligious reforms. He is pious without being
a pietist, Conservative, but not a reactionist
DR.. Won Bosse is notable among the Minis
tiers as an eager supporter of the anti-drink
legislation He is an anti-duelist and
social purity man.
There was highly interesting discussion
in the Reichstag to-day on Herr Richter's
questioning Chancellor Won Caprivi regard
ing the attitude of the Government to the
Clerical view as to the probable abandon
ment of the primary education bill. The
Chancellor replied that he found it impos-
sible to carry out the policy of barter i'm
piled in the du ut des 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 anxieties he had endured as President
of the Prussian Ministry, had been the
greatest of his life. 1t would strengthen
the stability of the empire to make the In
perial Chancellor independent of Prussian
affairs.
Rejoicing over the Clerical Backset.
Herr Won Benniggsen next took credit for
heading the opposition to success against the
education proposals. The National Liberals
and the membeTs:of the Freisinnige party
heartily applauded his references to the agi-
tation against the bill. Herr Liebnecht ex-
pressed for the Socialists their rejoicings
over the collapse of a measure which had
renaced religious freedom in Prussia. He
concluded with the rather irrelevant dec |
laration that, despite the strong party and |
political divisions, Germany, if attacked by |
France or Russia, would rise as one man to |
repel the invaders. General Won Caprivi re- |
mains as the representative of the Prussian |
Ministry in the Bundesrath.
The Emperor returned to Berlin this |
evening from Hubertusstock. He was met |
at the station bv the Empress and General |
Won Wittich and other officials. He was en- |
Enthusiastically cheered by the people on the |
streets as he drove to the castle. He looked |
well and showed no traces of his recent ILL |
ness. His attendants stated that the cold, |
from which he suffered only slightly, affect |
ed his respiration. He daily took hard |
gaIlops through the forest roads. He has |
not been troubled with his ear maladv. the |
attendants say, for weeks.
