The Politics I'M the Visits Of the Emperor.
SIN Being Discussed.
The most important events Of the last week
in Europe, were the visit of King Humbert and
Queen Margaret to Berlin and that Of Bismarck
to Vienna to assist in the ceremony Of the mar
riage of his eldest son. Count Herbert and the
beautiful Magyar maiden, the daughter Of
Count Hoyos. Much political speculation has
taken place on this two-fold subject in the
French and German press. in which illusions
have been made to the triples influence on
both visits. Everything that happens nova
days in Europe is talkedsbf with reference to
its possible relation to the triple; even those
events that usually pass unobserved Saws

Queen of Italy is a mere affair of etiquette

from the allies an agreement not to compel
Italy to an increase of military expenses. He
has been forced to go to Berlin in order 20
avoid revolution at home" third concludes

opinion OF The French press on the subject:
why did the car, why does the King of Italy

Vienna, as it has been announced, or Franz

THE GERMAN VIEW
The opinions expressed by the German pl ees
and people differ from those of France in this.

the visit of King Humbert to William III are re-
garded as two important factors in the m.nte-
nance of the peace ip Europe. (which cannot be
disturbed as long as a cordial understanding

BISMARCK AND THE EMPEROR.

Austria by a continuous ovation. His treat

ITALY.
Premier Giolitti. who scored a first victory
with the vote of six months credit given TO
his new administration by the chamber of dep
uties of Italy by great majority. has now an

before the return of the chamber in autumn

the permanent besis Of revenues covering ex-
penditures" without the increase of taxation
and also excluding any decrease in the military

the support OF the extreme left of the cham

seem reserved to politics in Italy under the |
new cabinet. The journey OF King Humbert |
is considered by the italian press rs a proof of

and also in the administration Of Signor |
Giolitti. In fact, though the members of the \

Glollttis cabinet is composed OF elements that |

to put the internA financial machinery of Italy .
In good working order before long.
