GERMAN CABINET CHANGES.
Renewal of the Report That Caprivi
Will Soon Retire.

BERLIN, April s.-The adjournment
of the landtag yesterday without having
made an appropriation FOR the salary of
the new minister-president of Prussia
shows that the cabinet crisis is still
acute. The Independents and members
of the left wing of the National Liberals
say that the government now virtually
acknowledges that the separation of
the chancellorship from the minister
presidency was only temporary make
ship. The government, in view of the
Radical and Liberal opposition to the
separation, they say, has decided to
unite the offices in the near future under
the incumbency of Count Botho Won
Eulenburg, and therefore avoided the
excitement incident upon needless de-
bate on the proposed appropriation.
1t is an open secret that Count Won
Caprivi is determined to retire. His
pride has been CALLED by the taunts of
the Liberals in the reichstag since the
appointment Of Eulenburg, and he has
shown himself to be only half hearted in
his defense Of the emperor's course in
the recent emergency. Caprivi's inter-
view with Kalnoky at Carlsbad will
probably be one Of the last negotiations
of his career as chancellor. These ne
gotiations, it is said, will concern the
recognition of Prince Ferdinand, of
Bulgaria, earnestly desired by Austria
as well ms the threatening attitude of
Russia on the border.

Benjamin Roberts, of Galloway, this
county, who was found dead in bed

man, and about two years ago was
beaten and robbed of large amount of
money and when he was found dead
with marks on his body that would indi-
