BERLIN. Aug. e.-Kleine's Journal gives cur
rency to n report, as yet unconiirmed. to the
effect that Chancellor Caprivi Is about to re-
sign. owing TO differences OF opinion with tho
Kaiser as to the Bismarck crisis. and that
Prince Hatzieiot- Wildenburgh. now the Ger
man Am bassador in Great Britain. will be his
successor. Although the statement is uncon-
frmed. It is known that thore has been radl-
col difference between the Kaiser and Caprivi
as to dealing with Bismarck's recent utter
ances. Caprivi urging that Bismarck should be
prosecuted and the Kaiser resolving to take
no notice OF tho matter
Capriv has not been entirely Satisfied since
tho Kaiser's change OF front on tho Education
bill. which led to Caprivi's resignation OF the
Office Of Prussian Premier while he retained
the. post o., lmperia! Chancellor. It is said
TINT the influence Of Count Won Gutenberg
who succeeded Caprivi as Premier has been
growing and that Won Eulenberg had good
deal to do with urging the Kaiser to adopt u
policy OF patience and tolerance toward Bis
mnrck.
Ali these things have tended to mako Caprvi
uncomf Portable. and whether he has or has not
resigned as Chancellor. 1t il generally believed
that he will not hold the post much longer.
