BERLIN, April 9.-[Copyright. 1892,
by the New York Associated Press.]-
When the landtag reassembles April
2Sth an important regrouping OF parties
will be effected. Negotiations point to
coalition of the Moderate Conserva-
tive faction with the Liberals, which
will result in the formation of Cartel
party, having some of the best elements
of the old Cartellers. The split between
the Ultra-C Conservatives and Moderates
has practically destroyed the Coneerva-
tives' majority in the landtag and also
places the party at tremendous
disadvantage for the general elections.
There is no hope of reconciliation the
divergence is too pronounced. Ii a
strong coalition is effected, the govern
ment will follow it's policy on distinct
national Liberal basis. The bulk of the
Conservatives await a chance to avenge
themselves on the government for
abandoning the primary education bill.
After the holidays the leaders will
announce new programme, the spirit
of which will probably be defense Of
Conservative principles.
The public take the political incerti-
tude quietly ;teven the reports of Won
Caprivi retiring after Easter, in favor OF
Won Gutenberg, do not stir the general
|spulse. The preparations of the Social
lists for the May-day celebration are
keenly watched by the authorities. The
Austrian Socialists have decided to hold
a demonstration on the I'd of May, and
desire the Germans to hold simultane-
GUS celebration. Won sCaprivi proposed
to influence the employers to refuse the
men holiday on May I'd. Herr MIGUEL
advised his colleagues TO treat the day
as recognized labor holiday, and if the
celebration is held on Monday, to close
the government factories. He even
suggested that the prices at the theaters
be reduced, and that the military bands
be ordered to play in the public gar
dens. The other ministers did not 60
so far as MIGUEL, but agreed not to
oppose the demonstrations in Berlin.
A number of meetings have been ar
ranged for, but there will be no big pro-
cession. If the Anarchists attempt to
create disorder, they will meet with in
stant and severe repression.
In Vienna Sunday will be celebrated
by the discussion OF the hour question.
Another section proposes to hold pro.
cession. Throughout Austria, except
ing Vienna, the celebrations will take
place Monday. In Pesth, the police have
been ordered to prevent meetings and

Consular reports for the first quarter
of 1892 show a decrease in trade, COM
pared with the same period in 1891,
alleged to be due to the reci.
procity treaties of the United States
affecting the German sugar trade in
the West Indies and South America.
From Berlin the decrease is 5000, 900
marks, and from Hamburg 100000
in sugar alone. About 100000 marks
of the Berlin decrease is in the cheapest
kinds of fancy goods, which were
hitherto sent to the southern states.
