BERLIN, July 2-Prince Bismarck has
been assiduously entreted at Kissingen to
dllate further on the Emperor and Chan.
cellor Won Caprivi. He maintains, however,
absolute silence, except to categorically
deny having attacked the Emperor His
special organs, the West De,asche Allegenaeint
Zeitwsg, the Munich Auegerneins Zeitung
and the Hamburger NdchricIten have also
become reticent
The Hamburger Ndchrichtea for days past
has not made the slightest reference to the
situation. This silence does not mean ces-
sation of the agitation. The parties are
quietly excited and are arranging them
selves for or against Prince Bismarck. The
leaders of the National Liberals, though
disapproving of the Princes recent utter
ances, are ready to resent any interference
with him and to oppose the Government if
it ventures upon a prosecution. A strong
section of the Conservatives are in simi-
lar mood.
Two Parties Clamsrous for Prosecution.
On the other hand, the Freissinnge party
and the Center party want the Government
to take immediate action against the Prince
AT a meeting of the Center party the
speakers declared that the revelations made
by Prince Bismarck verged upon high trea-
son and that he ought to be tried for that
offence. They denounced him as seeking to
embroil Europe ir order to avenge himself
upon the Emperor and Chancellor Won Ca
priv, and as compromising peace while Civ
ing vent to his i'll humor,
The Frankfort Zeitung, Liberal organ,
urges that it is time to end the federation
the Government has accorded Prince Bis
marck The Ministers, it says, should ac-
cept the challege he offered. Yet the Gov
ernment is irresolute over the prosecution.
The official opinion is that if the Prince re-
hews his attack prosecution will be inevita-
ble and prompt.
Meanwhile Prince Bismarck is enoying
4 repose after his triumphal progress, and his
presence at Kissingen has drawn crowds to
that place. He resides in villa belonging
10 the Bavarian Government, to which is
attached spacious grounds and a garden
along the River Saale.
Now Living the Life of Hero.
He has guard of Bavarian soldiers who
have been specially detached to honor him.
A carriage and horses for his use have been
sent by the Prince Regent, of Bavaria
Every night band plays in front of the
villa, and during its performance the
Prince, smoking a long pipe, can generally
be seen at a window listening to the music
He treats the members Of the band at inter-
walls with copious draughts of beer, and
hob-nobs with the band master over wine
and cigars. The crowd greets him with
repeated "Hochs"
The Prince seldom goes out, but he re-
ceiyes large number of visitors. His out
ings are sometimes accompanied by trouble
some ovations The injury to the Princes
eve, caused by his being struck a short
time ago by boquet that was thrown to
him by fervent lady admirer, was not at
all serious
In private letter to a Hamburg friend
alluding to the threatened prosecution of
himself Prince Bismarck saws he has too
much respect for himself not to know the
limit beyond which he ought to 60. In re-
ferring to others, he defes any one to show
that he has overstepped the limit
BismarckJwnI Push the Government.
The Munich AReseameine letting returns to
the defense of Prince Bismarck in an arti-
Gle denying that his criticisms were in
spires by desire to return to office 1t
says his summary dismissal precluded all
such thoughts. The West Deaasche AIleos,aeine
Zeit1s'tg renews Its call for the publication of
the truth regarding the Princes dismissal
The simultaneous appearance of the arti-
cles in both organs suggests that Prince
Bismarck means to push the Government to
action. The NeaseSte Nachriclhten, of Munich,
prints a report of an interview had by one
of its representatives. with Prince Bis
marck, in which the ex-Chancellor saws:
Revenge is not my object, least of all upon
my successor in office. II i raise my voice I
do SO for the good of the Fatherland The
commercial treaties entered into bv the
Government have injured the cattle, cheese,
wine and paper industries, and will continue
to infict tinjuries upon them as long as these
treaties are in operation. 1t is perfectly
clear to me that ! should have pub.
1ished q draft of the agreement
which concluded the Austro-Germau
alliance, in consequence of the
the subject, emanating from Russian
sources, but / have throughout remained
wholly on the defensive. Though / have
had repeated assurances that enjoy the
confidence OF the Gear, have fallen into
distavor with the Kaiser. The Kaiser has
not fallen into distavor with me. The ex-
Chancellor expressed himself as being so
filled with renewed courage that he
would be willing to enter the Reichstag
