BERLIN, Jan. 16-In the course of tbs
discussion in the Reichstag to-day On the
question of a grant for an exhibit at the
Chicago Columbian Exposition of 1893, DR..
Won Rottenburg, the Secretary to the Chan
cellor, said that while large number Of
manufacturers in some of the trades, such
as the silk and leather trade, will be repre-
sented at the fair, others, notably the own
ers Of Iron works, refused TO send exhibits.
This" DR.. Won Rottenburg said. twas q
wrong policy, especially in view Of the
German interests in the South American
trade, which trade the United States lie now
seeking to obtain under reciprocity treaties
as part of the principles of the Monroe
doctrine. German manufacturers" he de-
clared, would best consult their own ir-
terests by sending exhibits to Chicago
where their products would be seen by the
South American and other traders through
out the world. The ilI-feeling entertained
against America on account of the McKin-
ley bill was all wrong. Every state had q
right to protect Its own interests" Other
speakers took similar views and the grant
was passed unanimously.
bate on the budget DR.. Witte said be
hoped the Government would coma to a
decision at an early date Concerning the
projected international exhibit at Berlin. DIR.
Won Rottenburg vaguely promised that the
Government would favor the organization
of a general exhibition. There is much talk
of an international exposition in Berlin la
1892.
CRISIS IN BULGARIA.
The Foreign Office expects a crisis shortly
that will probably lead to war between
Servia and Bulgaria, but no fear is enter
tanned of active Russian Intervention. The
Bulgarian Government considers the time
OPT Ortune for bringing the differences be-
tween Bulgaria md Seryla TO a climax So.
it has opened the subject again by notifying
Servia that it Will no longer permit the
gathering Of Bulgarian refugees in the
frontier forts. StambOuloff, the Bulgarian
Prime Minister, has intimated TO the Ger
man and Austrian Governments the neces-
sity of Bulgaria taking military measures
on the frontier to protect the country from
a sudden attack. The best chance of pre-
serving peace lies in the weakened condition
of Russia.
FINANCIAL ECONOMY IN GERMANY.
Tie deficit in the Prussian budget is
chiefly due to the state railway account in
which there Is a deficit of A., 900, 600 marks
below the estimated returns. MIGUEL pro-
poses TO enforce stricteT economy in railway
administration and less money will be spent
on public buildings. He also hopes, through
the new income tax. TO increase the reYe-
nues 7,000,0G0 marks. Rigid economy is new
extending to all the departments depending
on the Finance NJ nistry. The WorkmeB
who have been discharged from the RAJ
ways and a large number of other men, So
fering through the limitation of expen5
lures, are making an outcry but the ma
J0rity of the members of the LaDdtag sup
port the Minister of Finance.
NEW EDUCATIONAL BILL.
Minister ZedlitZ's Education Bill has been
presented to the Laudtag, and confirms the
worst fears of the Fresnnige party as ex-
tending the clerical control Of the schools,
The Centrlst section and the Conservatives
welcome the measure, and there is strong
probability that it will pass.
REJECTION OF FRENCH PROPOSALS.
The note of the Swiss Government re-
jectiug the French proposals for a COM
merGial treaty says that France, while ask
ing concessions similer TO those SWtZer-
land accorded to Germany and Austria
ignores what those countries accorded iR
return.
PRINTERS STRIKE ENDED.
The collapse of the printers strike is az
sOlute. This is partly due to the Influx OF
foreign cOmpOsitOrS. The loss to the stCik
ers amounts to 10000 marks, while tho
total to the men aud the employers is over
5000, 600 marks.
SUBJECT TO MILITARY DUTY.
The American Legation is busy with the
military cases Of German Americans who
have got into trouble by returning. This is
an outrage, but these men ought to under
stand that all of them leaving Germany
after having been recruited are liable g
fine and Imprisonment.
