States was summoned by the Chancellor
for the express purpose Of giving an
open rebuff 70 Count Botho Ln Eulen-

a long time has been
ONE OF EXTREME DIFFICULTY.
FL was in an uuepvis0e situation In
having 10 LOOK forward 70 meeting the
Reichstag without q working majority
at his back.
From the Conservatives be could ouly
expect opposition, while the Centre
party was not pledged, and its support
depended upon concessions. TIE Chan
cellor was thus left with only scatter
ed following. Even the Polish faction
was embiJtered against him " recent
events.
According to the Krettz ZCitlIng the
chief organ Of the Agrarians tonight,
the article which directly bToughtsoout
ths crisis, was published in the Cologne
GUzcfte on Thursday last, attacking
Count Zu Gutenberg. The Prussian
Premier, on reading this article, is said
20 have Immediately rendered his re-
siguation, and that Chancellor Won
CaUrivi followed suit during q subse-
Queut interview with the Emperor.
Il is stated tonight that the Emperor
declared 70 the delegates OF the federal
states Yesterday, that although Chan
cellor Won Caprivi had resigned, he was
determined that bills TO combat Social
ism should be introduced ia the form
agreed upon between himself and the
eX Chancellor.
The newspaper comments to-niRhl
are generally against Won CaprlV'
blaming him for bis numerous mistakes
the past two years.
The ex-Premier, who was also Minis
ter of the Interior, took leave to-day Of
the higher officials Of the Ministry OF
the Interior, in the presence OF Under
Secretary Braun Behrens and Director
Haass. The Count, however, will con-
tinue 10 discharge the duties OF his Of
fee
UNTIL HIS SUCCESSOR Is INSTALLED.
The Empsrar's choice of Prince Won
HouenIohO for Chancellor is taken as
evidence that his majesty does not In
tend % adopt the extreme view OF the
measures required to arrest the spread
Socialism.
Prince Won Hogenloho, although "a
wears old. is very active mentally.
The French presr is generally OF the
opinion that despite It's coincidence with
the Cars illness, the German crisis
does not imply change 10 the foreign
policy. which is under the absolute
guidance OF the Emperor.

billion by tne Hamburg and Luoeck

tory one aud was adopted only as
sanitary precauuon. At the foreign
office tnsASsJciated Press correspondent

can sugar tariff would be resorted 10
only as a last expedieut.
