Triple Alliance.
Berlin, Sept. 16.-The newspapers have
found little room for accounts of the
great naval review of Swinemunde, al
though they devoted columns to the East
Prussian military maneuvers. The dis
play Of warships, however, had the more
political significance of the two. 1t was
in fact a grand semi-polltical function
for the benefit of the gaping crowds
which special trains took 10 the coast
from all parts of the empire.
CHEAP EXCURSIONS ORDERED.
At first the official mind did not grasp
the emperor's reasons for ordering the
railway authorities to advertise popular
excursions to the scene Of The review 1t
now recognizes the fact that the emperor
was practicing one of his clever schemes
preliminary to an important act of gov
ernment The royal railways carried
northward thousands from Leipsic, Halle,
Dresden, Breslau, Frankfort, Brun-
swick and Madgeburg. Their ex-
cursion trains from Berlin were
! filled to the standing room.
At Swinemunde the tourists found coast
! ing steamers waiting to convey them to
the feet As the Berlin, Halle and Leip-
! sic steamers passed the imperial yacht
Hohenzollern, the emperor commanded
his band to play popular airs, While he
stood on the upper deck saluting them,
These courtesies were intended to
last session of the reischstag
the deputies declined to appropriate
| 4,500,000 marks for new naval expenses.
| In the coming session they will be asked
| to grant new items amounting to 10000,
0O0 By stirring the pride of the electors
| the emperor hopes to induce those who
repudiated the smaller grant to look with
favor on the larger one. He has already
succeeded in giving 10000 inlanders who
never before saw a war ship a most
! splendid naval spectacle.
DISPOSITION OF IRoNCLADs.
During the winter the navy will have
| two new formations. A reserve division
of five ironclads will be stationed at Dant-
zig and another at Ocaliel. Both divisions
are intended for the special protection of
the Baltic and North sea ports. The naval
programme for this week S maneuyers in
cludes a night attack by the torpedo
flotilla tomorrow and bombardment of
the Kurischehaf coast works by the first
| squadron. Hostilities will cease on
Thursday. On Friday the emperor, Ad-
miral Won der Goltz and other comman-
ders will meet in Swinemunde to criticise
the work of the feet.
THE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMME.
The Nordeusche Allgemeine Zeitung,
which is inspired from the Wilhelm
Strausse, is Publishing a series of articles
Programme of Action and the Criticisms
of its Opponents. The writer's purpose
| evidently is to throw light on the future
policy of the emperor and chancellor Won
Caprivi. AS the articles are worded in
the foggiest style of the new editor, DR..
Griesman, nothing definite can be learned
from them except that the government
wishes all the parties of law and order to
combine against the social democrats
! Griessmann hints that the emperor has
new legislative plans to soften the lot of
the working man, but does not tell
whether the government proposes return
ing to the old repressive laws The
| Koelnische Zeitung maintains these laws
will not be revived.
CONSOLIDATE THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE.
Fhe increase of the Austro-Hungarian
budgets for army and navy in harmony
| with Germanys previous action has
given rise to much carcastic comment on
the general assurances of peace. In
| opening the Buda-Pesth delegation on Fri
day Freiherr Won Chlomuky said "Al-
though we recognize Count Kalnoky's
wise and efficient policy in consolidating
the triple alliance and developing the
| treaties of commerce, although we feel
that by such means he has afforded us
new pledges of the peace of Europe we
cannot shut our eyes to the fact
| that when all European states are
forming to augment their military
strength, the day of general disarma-
ment must still be far off. Austria
Hungary cannot enter the path of peace
alone. She cannot decrease her arma-
ment while others increase theirs We
must rely upon the delegation not to fol
low the dictates of mere hope, but rather
to develop the resources of our army and
navy in accordance with the needs of the
existing situation"
DUnprejudiced opinion is that, with all
the references to increased ornaments
and war, Chlomuky's speech was noted
for its pacific tone.
HERR Won PLOETZ's REPLIES,
Herr Won Ploetz continues to Justify his
reputation of chief agitatOr of the agra
rian league. He has written a reply to
the emperor's Koenigsberg speech, in or
der to prove the nobilitys right TO oppose
the emperor's policy, without being
charged with disloyalty Despite his re-
peated declarations, however, Ploetz
gives signs that he may climb down.
For instance, he closes his last open let
ter with the words "Cur king ought not
to be left for moment without the assur-
ance of our confidence in him. He ought
TO remain unweakened and steadfast in
his power and high prerogatives. The
landlords aud noblemen of Prussia will
always be firmly loyal TO him in every
danger that may threaten the throne
The Deutsche Zeitung, new agrarian
organ in Berlin, harps on the theme that
monarchic sentiment is dying out in Ger
many The quickness and number Of the
loyai responses which the emperors
Koenigs berg speech has elected seems to
disproye It's argument completely
AFTER THE sPIRITUALIsTs
The Saxon authorities have begun a
campaign against the spirit mediums and
societies Of spiritualists. The societies
are suppressed on the ground that they
do mental and physical injuries both 70
the mediums and their patrons. The SUI
preme court in Leipsic has rejected the
appeals made by spiritualists against the
action Of the local authorities.
Nine. lsmert, a young woman from the
frontier district of France, has been
arrested at Metz as a spy. The inquiry
into her history is in progress.
