BERLIN, July 14.-Ths Centrist party
CT the reichatag bill to repeal the anti
Jesuit law and threatens the govern
ment with all kinds of retaliation at the
next session of the reichstag. The
Catholic congress at its session in Au-
gust will decide upon the general atti
tude of the Centrst party, in view of
the action just taken by the bundesrath.
CHOLERA QUARANTINE.
Strict measures are being taken on
the frontiers of Germany to exclude
cholera from this country, and 80 far
they have been successful. Extended
observations are being made along the
Russian frontier. Nevertheless, six cases
were found on the Vistula river between
Warsaw and Dsntzic during the past
week. They are being isolated and no
apprehension exists. The Hamburg
senate has forbidden the holding OF the
usual August fair as measure of pre-
caution againsJ the possible introduc-
ton of cholera into that city. Saeamen
and others who usually attend this fair
have united with the view of holding
the senate responsible for the peouniary
loss which they will suffer as a result of
this order.
THE BEER BOYCOTT.
The boycott inaugurated by the So
cialiRts against certain breweries is
waged as widely as ever. The author

removal OF the prohibition against the
soldiers Waiting beer gardens frequented
by Socialists. Hitherto this regulation
had been strictly enforced in order to pre-
vent contact between the troops and the
Socialists. These gardens, which mostly
sell boycotted beer, have been deserted
by the Socialists for places where unboy-
cottcd beer slcne is served, but they are
steadily diminishing in numbers. All the
breweries OF North Germany are FORM
ing league in order to fight the Social
ists.
ARMY MANEUvRRs.
The annual maneuvers in September
about Bromburg, ON the Polish frontier,
will be of unusual interest. All the
men engaged will be of class having
less than two years service, thus the
occasion will be test of the men en-
rolled under the army law OF 1898. The
other novelties of the maneuvers will be
experiments with the reduced weight
field kit, designed by the emperor, who
will personally command the daylight
cavalry maneuvers,
BAYoNETs REINTRoDUcED.
Emperor William has decided against
the advice of many prominent generals
to reintroduce the light bayonet which
che infantry carried attached to the
rifle upon all occasions except when on
the march. Since the introduction OF
quick-hring guns. bsyonet charges have
been regarded as almost obsolete.
A PRIVATE VISIT.
Emperor Williams visit to Cowes, in
order to witness the more important of
the south of England yachting regattas.
will be OF q private nature. There will
be no official receptions.
THE IRON PRINCE.
Prince Bismarck is visiting his son
Herbert at Schoenhausen, en- route to
Varsin, his summer home. The ex-
chancellor looks feeble and is not yet in
clined to take active exercise or long
journeys. He is expected here on Mon
day, and An immense demonstration is
in preparation.
ATTACKS ON CAPRIvI.
Whether or not Prince Bismarck was
the inspirer of the article, the Ham
burger Nachrichten makes the anti.
anarchist agitation the subject of the
most virulent attack upon Chancellor
Won Caprivi ever seen. The Kreuz
Zsitung also dubs General Won Capriyi
the chancellor of the Socisl Demo-
crats."
NO HOPE FOR KNEEBEs.
The long promised evidence to clear
Robert +. Kneebes, the American trot-
ting horse owner, who is charged with
ringing" ON German race coures, has
not been forthcoming. Mr.. Kneebes'
friends now regard his case as hopeless.
The trial will probably take place in
September.
FRENCH ACTORS IN GERMANY.
The Coincide Franchise company, in.
cluding Coquelin, has been giving per-
formances at Munich. but they have
been poorly attended. This is due to
the controversy which the visit occa-
ecned in the French press and to the
refusal of Coquelin to visit Berlin, Frank
fort or any other German city. French
companies, however, are being generally
we'll received in Germany.
Prince Luitpold, heir presumptive to
the throne of Bavaria. has conferred
upon Cooueliu tho Louis medal of art
and science.
