BISMARCK'S BOLDBREAKS
TIE DECISION TO STOP THEM MAY
END SERIOUSLY.

The Vosslsche Zeitung Fears q TraQ-
edY May Be the Outooms-A Big
Sensation Caused Throughout the
Empire by the Government's Deter
mination-A Synopsis of the Ofsn-
sive Utterances
BERLIN, June 29-The action of the gov
ernment In abandoning its attitude Of re-
serve toward Prince Bismarck, as evidenced
by the threats made in the official North
German Gazette, has caused q most do
cided sensation throughout the empire, and
further developments are awaited with
great interest
The Tdgebldtt says: "Ths die is cast.
Prince Bismarck has attained the object for
which he has striven during the last two
years, and has forced the governmsnt to
take up the gauntlet he has 40 often thrown
at its feet. But to attain this Prince Bis
marck has been obliged to abandon the role
OF an anonymous journalist. He has per-
sonally taken his place in the breach. With
the full weight OF his historic name he ex-
poses Chancellor Won Caprivi to the eyes of
foreign nations and disoredits him by
means or reckless dialectio. All
patriots" the TdgebIdt adds, will regard
the procedure with aching hearts; but al
the same time they will admit that the gov
ernment aots in self-defense when It re-
solves TO no longer expose itself TO the
poisoned arrows OF It's adversary. Chan
oellor Won Caprivis question whether
Prince Bismarck's conduct is patriotic, will
be answered by majority of the nation
with sorrowful, but decided negative.
Out-and-out Bismarckians may take the
part Of the prince against the government,
but IL is impossible TO believe that the pro-
nunciamento Of this civilian Wallensteiu
Will be crowned with SUCCESS"
MAY END IN A TRAGEDY.
The Vossische Zeitung says: "a sins
gle false step on the part of the
government In the contest now
openly embarked upon may lead to
tragedy No matter what the opinion
about Prince Bismarck may be, it will NOT
be Bismarck tragedy" Continuing the
paper says: I'VE merely hope the govern
ment will not execute its threat to take
action against the creator OF German
unity
The National Zeitung says il trusts the
dispute will soon be ended, Ii assumes that
Prince Bismarck's attitude is influenced by
resentment aC tho Emperor of Austria for
refusing him an audience when he was in
Vienna to attend Count Herbert Bismarck's
wedding. The National Zettung then ap
peals to Prince Bismarck's patriotism TO
end what ID terms 'regrettable political
spectacle"

BIsMARCK's DISLIKE OF CAPRIvL
In the course of the interview, Prince
Bismarck further said: "When read Gen.

estimate of him-a thing that seldom hap<

Prince Bismarck once strongly supported
