BERLIN. April 9.-Whsn tbs landtaR re-
assemblies April %. an important regroup-
ing Of parties will be effected. Negotia-
tions point to the coalition Of the moderate
conservation faction with the liberals
which will result in the formation OF Z
cartel party, having somo Of the best ole
ments Of the old cartellers. The split be-
tween the nltra-conservatives and modsr-
ates has practically destroyed tho oonser-
vatiys majority in tho landtag and also
places that party 1t q tremendous diaad-
vantage for the general elections. There ID
no hope Of reconciliation, as the divergence
is too pronounced. II q strong coalition ID
effected the government will follow its pol
ICY on distinct national liberal bias. Tho
bulk Of conservatives admit that il il 4
chance TO aysnRe themselves on the govern
ment for abandoning the primary sduca-
tion bill. After the Easter holidays the
leaders will announce new programme,
the spirit Of which will probably be de-
tense Of conservative principles. The pub
lilo take political inosrtituds quietly. Even
reports Of Won Caprivi's retiring after
Easter in favor Of Won Gutenberg do not
stir the general pulse.

fuse the men q holiday on May 2. Miguel

tary bands be ordered to play in the pub
lie gardens. The othsr ministers did mot
go ~ far a. Miguel, but agreed not to op-
pess tho demonstrations. In Berlin
