BISMARCK CONTINUES HIS TRADE AGAINST
The EMPEROR
And the Men He Has Gathered About Him-He
Speaks Of William Only as The Young Man
And Thinks He Has Fallen Under the
Deplorabls Influence Of His Mother

BERLIN, June 3O.-On his way to Kis-
sengen Prince Bismarck stopped at
Augsburg TO visit one OF his most loyal
and long-Standing friends, the Chief
BurgOmaster, DR.. Ludwig Won Fischer,
member of the Bavarian and Imperial
Chambers. The Prince drove through
the streets in the BurgomaSter's car
riage, amid the plaudits Of the multi
tude.
While at Augsburg the Prince I'M
bOssomed himself freely, evidently feel
ing that he was among true friends, who
would not betray any confidence repoSed
in them. However this may be, a trust
worthy report of the Princes CONVEX
sgilon has reached a correspondent
through q private source.
The ex-Chancellor referred through
out 60 the Emperor as "der jUnge
MANN" He expressed his fear that
there were dangers ahead for Germany.
Some parts OF the EmperOr's foreign
policy were based on the active support
of the Radicals and Poles, with, until
very recently, the UltramOntaneS, and
the support Of the Social DemOcra Is.
Now, 10 was a significant fact that every
one Of these factions had been opposed
TO the formation of the empire. The
Prince admitted that some Of his meas
ure while 10 power had been harsh, but
harsh measures were justified by the
necessity OF keeping the empire to-
gether.
The Emperor would sooner or later
bitterly regret having nursed q viper
Gus coalition of parties, each striving
for the mastery only in order to undo
what it took almost a lifetime TO put to-
gether. The latter-day moderation OF
the Social Democrats Prince BlSmark
declared, is illnsive. This attitude will
be maintained by them only until they
constitute a strong minority In Parlia-
ment. Then they will throw OF the
mask and violently force the now half
open door, and thrust the Kaiser's chair
outside. The Ultramontanes, aVerred
the Prince, would prefer to bargain
with an atheistiC Socialist President
rather than with a Protestant Emperor
When the Kaiser consented 70 meet
the Car at Kiel, said Bismarck, he
started on the road to Canossa. In 1891
he might have had a visit from the Car
at a German seaport, but at that time
he disdained il. He had climbed down,
and he would have many another de-
basement if he persisted in a policy Of
eStrauging Russia.
Bismarck feared that the Emperor
was fast falling under the deplOrable
English influence of his mother. This
was the more strange because in the
earlier stage OF his career he violently
repulsed the anglomania which prevailed
in some quarters near him. The Prince
expressed the belief that the greatest
benefits would be derived by Germany
from o friendly policy toward Russia,
especially in Asia. This should be pur-
sued ,seven at the expense Of England's
preferences. A strong entente between
England and France would spring up
after Gladstone's return to pow. and
then the Kaiser would soon fnd on
which side his bread was buttered.
The Prince seemed confident that
crisis In affairs at home and abroad
would ere long cause popular Outburst
which would carry him into power
again despite the Kaiser'S hostility.
"Public opinion has been aroused to
an exceptional degree against Bismarck
by his remarkable utteranceS in Aus
tria and South Germany. The FreiSiTl-
MICE zsitltn0, Eugene Richter's newspa-
per, and the most influential organ OF
the Independent party, says that the
ex-ChancellOr has become a gray-haired
gossip, which is his own worst enemy.
To save him from his own utterances,
the FYetsniqge adds, the Bismarckians
should condne him 10 Friedrichsrun,
where be should be kept safe from in
reviewers. Other newspapers, while
not going so far In their bitterness
against the Prince, say without reserve
that his remarks concerning the Emper-
or and the Emperor's policy contain all
the elements Of insult OF Majesty"
Many who have heretofore chung to
the Prince, and have supported his
cause despite the UtteranCeS againStthe
Government in the Hamburger Mach
richtcll, now acknowledge that their 10y
SHY will not allow them to go further
with him. They condemn his reckless
ness in exposing State secrets and his
efforts TO excite Germans 10 diStrust
their sOyereigns.
Eminent leaders here say that with
out doubt Bismarck has rendered him
self liable TO prosecution by the Crown,
and that his conviction upon the evil
dence would be certain. Such prose-
cution, however, is thought out Of the
question. Bismarck has such strong
hold on the sentiment Of all Germany
that even the Independents and Social
Democrats would denOunce the pro-
ceedings
Despite the complications to which
the Foreign Office has been exposed by
the ex-Chancellor's revelations of its
former policy, 10 is understood that
Count Won Caprivi is strongly opposed
to any action which would indicate that
the government felt 1t worth while to
notice Bismarck's attacks. In this view
Of the case the Chancellor is supported
by the Emperor. who, while exceeding
~ irritated by Bismarck's criticisms,
still expresses deep regard for him.
Count BOthO Zu Eulenburg and Herr
MIGUEL are understood to be in favor Of
heroic measures to shut the EXCHANGED
lOrs mouth.
