Guest of the Emperor.
BERLIN, Jan. 2I.-It now appears that
Chancellor Won Caprivi and Baron
Marschall Won Bieberstein, the secretary
| of state for foreign affairs. had pre-
| viously been informed of Emperor
| Williams intention to send Col. Won
Moltke. his aide de camp, to Prince
Bismarck with cOnciliatOry letter. aud
| also that rare old wine. and so bring
| about the reconciliation which followed
the visit of Col. Won Moltke to Fried
richsruhe.
AT the castle preparations are being
made to receive Prince Bismarck, who
will be the guest of Emperor William
during his stay in Berlin. A suite of
rooms in the castle has already been
| thrown open and prepared for the use
of the eX-chancellOr, and everything
possible will be done to make mis- visit a
memorable one.
1t is understood the prince will cor
daily support the government, but any
thing like direct participation in gov
eminent affairs is far from the contem-
plation of any of those concerned.
Chancellor Won Caprivi. according to
report, will remain chancellor in fact,
as his position will be in no way weak
ened by the reconciliation between the
ex-chancellor and the emperor.
1t is now definitely announced that
Prince Bismarck will arrive in Berlin at
noon Friday next. The prince will
alight at the Lehrte or Hanoverian rail-
way station, where he will be received
with great pomp. The route from there
will be through the Brandenburg gate,
at the west end Of the Inter den Lin
den. along the Inter den Linden to the
run to Berlin Friday and Saturday, and
most of the cities of Southern Germany
will be decorated for the occasion.
Berlin itself will be decorated and
brilliantly Illuminated at night. The
students have announced their inten-
ton of turning out en- masse, and win
dOws along the route leading to the
castle from the railroad depot at which
the prince will alight are being hired
at the highest prices. The different
municipal bodies and very many of the
Berlin societies are preparing to do
honor to the chancellor, who, on his wav
to the castle, will be surrounded by
military and princely pomp of the most
elaborate description.
In short, the entry of Prince Bis
marck into Berlin after so long an ab-
sence promises to draw immense
crowds of people to this city, and to be
one OF the most elaborate events ever
witnessed i'll the German capital.
BERLIN. Jan. 24-The emperor has
addressed second letter to Prince Bis
marck thanking him for his acceptance
of the wine which the emperor had sent
him and for his announced intention of
visiting and paying his respects. III his
letter the emperor also invites Prince
Bismarck to attend the
IMPERIAL BIRTHDAY FETES.
1t is reported that Count Won Valdez
see proceeded to Friedrichsruhe at the
emperor's desire directly after the
reconciliation was decided. One account
says that the emperor intended to make
few advances to Bismarck on Christ
mas, but delayed his final decision until
last week.
The Politische Nachrichten says that
the emperor will meet Bismarck at the
railway station alone Friday, and will
drive with him to the castle, where a
party has been prepared for the prince.
DIR. Schweninger arrived here from
FREDERICKSBURG today. In the budget
debate in the unterhaus DR.. MIGUEL de-
clared that unless the empire came to
PruSsia'S assistance the PrusSian in
come tax must he increased.
The Freslnnige Zeitung asserts that
the emperor declared to Herr Koeller,
under secretary Of state, who belongs
to the Conservative party, that he sup
ported Chancellor Won Caprivi'S views
i'll regard to the Russian treaty, and
that he would Internationally hold fast
10 his constitutional rights. The en-
peror added that the Conservatives
need not imagine that he would allow
them to force the chancellor upon him.
A Berlin special TO the News saws
that the emperor asked Bsmark to
come to Berlin, if possible, before Sat.
urday in order to give him an oppor-
tunity for chat previous to the com
mencement OF the fetes. The emperor
added that he would deeply regret on
the anniversary of the entry of the
army being without the congratulations
of the man who co-operated most pow
erfully under his grandfather in sharp
eninS Prussia's and Germany's sword
