lcoPYRIeHT. 1892. BY N. Y. ASSOCIATED PHEss.1
BERLIN, June 4-The Gar must be
highly pleased with the manner in which
the plans for the meeting between himself
and the Emperor were concealed until they
were upon the eve of being realized. The
official organs here insist that the proposal
for the meeting emanated from the Car,
who wrote suggesting that the interview be
held at Kiel, giving the short time at his
disposal before he returns to St. Petersburg
as the reason for his not coming to Potsdam.
A stronger reason. however, is his we'll
grounded dislike to the railway journey
necessary to reach Potsdam, and the possible
risk of Nihilist outrages The Emperor
will meet the Gar off the port of Kiel on
the imperial yacht. Pains are taken In Off
cial quarters TO deny that the interview will
have any political character, but it is gen.
orally felt that the day's conference between
the two Emperors will do much to promote
their friendly relations
The Czar Aims to Couciliate Germany.
Reports from reliable sources state that
the Gar has more than once lately given
proofs Of his desire to avoid any action that
would be likely TO cause irritation in Ger
many. It is even stated that the attempts
of France to prevent any anti-German de-
monstrations at the Nancy fetes are due to
Baron Mohrenheim, the Russian Ambassa-
dor to France, expressing to President
Carnot the Cars hope that no such demon
stration would occur. The fact that the
Kiel interview happens on the same day
as the Nancy fetes causes considerable
remark, as while patriotic Frenchmen will
be displaying their love for Russia, and
possibly reviling Germany, the two EN-
perors will be quietly comforting to the
advantage of their mutual interests.
The Kreaazer Zeitung remarks that when
Emperor William visited The Hague the
Queen Regent toasted the Emperor in
French; but at the gala dinner given during
her visit here she replied in German to the
Emperor's toast The visit has had
favorable effect in Holland, where the
students have declined to take part In the
Nancy fetes in order not to be present in
the event of anti-German manifestations
Koch against Free Silver Coinage.
Herr Koch is against the reconciliation
Of silver. He has declared that the intro
duction of free coinage would lead to great
commercial crisis. "America's desire for
conference" he said, "arose from her false
financial policy of heaping up unsaleable
silver Instead of free coinage bringing to
her the control of the worlds money mar
ket, as the silver men imagined, America is
in such fix that she is obliged to look for
help abroad"
The refusal of the Catholic authorities to
allow Catholic burial to the remains of DR..
Won Forckenbeck, Burgomaster of Berlin,
is one of the greatest blunders that could
have been committed, and will do the Cath
olic cause immense injury. The Provost of
ST. Hedurn's Church, the chief Catholic
church of the city, tries to assume all re-
sponsibility, but it is well known that his
decision was approved by the highest Cath
olic authority. The Freisinnige Zeitaag
states that Herr Stryok, President of the
Municipal Council, has seeded from the
Catholic Church as a protest against what
he considers an act of unjustifable intol-
erance. His action probably Influenced
the Lower House of the Baden Diet, where
Catholics have been gaining for years,
which rejected motion in favor of allow
ing the return of expelled Catholic orders,
including the Jesuits.
Against the American Sugar Trust.
The German sugar producers have re
ceived oyertures from the Austrian Union
of Sugar Producers, proposing the estab-
lishment of a>syndicate for the sale of raw
sugar, to work against the American Sugar
Trust. The oyertures were favorably re-
ceived. If they are successful the French
producers will be invited to cooperate.
The past week has been one of the hottest
ever known here. The mercury rose to $50
in the shade at times, and was rarely below
