will be prorogued uext week for an indenn-
ite period. The Landtag will be nouinally
prorogued until the end OF October, but ~

Ia view OF the suspension OF pariiamen-
tary life, II will be futile 70 study how the
political groups will rearrange themselves
under the Prussian ministerial changes.
The members Of the Centurist party In the
