BERLIN, July 21.-Considerable inter.
est is taken here in the tariff legislation
of the United States. 1t has been
learned that negotiations are proceeding
between Berlin and Washington In
order to prevent the possibilities of
commercial war. The decision of con-
gress In regard to sugar is awaited with
great anxiety, many of the newspaper
articles OH the subject .condemning the
stand taken by the senate. People in
this country are already discussing the
possible reprisals which Germany could
make in the event Of her suffering
through American tariff legislation.
For instance, the Hamburger Core
spondent, newspaper well known as
getting much of its news from high
official sources, proposes, in case duty is
imposed upon raw sugar, that Germany
should raise the duty on American Pc
troleum. Bot In this case the PROPOSE
ton contained In the article alluded 10
originated in the mind of the editor.
The government desires that nothing
should occur to prejudice the good rela-
lions between the two countries, and it
is not likely that anything but very
grave necessity could mar this good
feeling.

| The ex-chancellor made seven speeches
while en- route, the most remarkable
of them being the one which closed with
his request for "thres cheers for Ber-

amazement at this action upon the part
of Prince Bismarck, and commented
upon the fact that this was the first time

! The beer boycott continues, although
the Socialists are losing ground. The
| struggle is now assuming the character
of a decisive battle between the borr-
geoisle snd the socialists. The latter are
