The German Cabinet Change.

The unexpected resignation of General
Won Caprivi, the chief Minister of the
young and impulsive German Emperor, con-
tinues to puzzle the diplomats as well as the
editors of Europe. 1t would seem there
could be no crisis in the empire, nor any
clearly defined reasons why the successor of
Bismarck should go suddenly lay down his
office. 1t could not have originated from
any iotrigues or pressure from his great
predecessor, between whom and himself
there had been certain degree of rivalry.
There is more reason for the belief that
this change of CHARACTERISTIC had its chief
cause 10 the young Empsror's love of abb
solute power, which tends to render the
position of any self-respecting and re-
sponsible chief Minister disagreeable as
we'll as untenable. Csprivi had been in office
nearly five years. 1t had been thought
that he was too much inclined to yield to
the wishes of the Emperor, sometimes to
his discredit as statesman, though as
whole his official career had been thought
to be fairly successful if not as remarkable
an that of the Iron Chancellor. Caprivis
probable successor is indicted by the fol-
lowing Geographic dispatches copied from
Berlin sources:
The Standards" Berlin correspondent
says:
The choice of Prince Hohenlohe is gen.
orally regarded as the best possible one,
except by the extremists. He Is middle
sized man, but of extraordinary elasticity
for his age. He still stands the fatigues of
channels shooting, ard is capital pedes-
trian. He is very rich. Count Won Cap
rivl was justly and profoundly highly indig-
nant at Eulenburg for introducing the
East Pruasian deputation to the Kaiser on
October 20. He was ignorant of the mat
ter until he read of it in the newspapers.
This is believed to have gone far toward
precipitsting the crisis.
Prince Won Hohenlohe visited Count Won
Caprivi today.
The latter will have pension as ex-chan-
cellor, but will lose his army pension. After
a visit to Geneva he intends to make his
home with Lis nieces in Bradenburg.
Prince Won Hohenlohe's age (seventy-five
years. is regarded as precluding long tenure
of Office or active participation in AFFAIRS s-
pecially in the Reichstag. The imperial
policy will now more than ever be under
the personal guidance of the Emperor, to
the no small alarm of all liberal minded
Germany, who compare the seeming insta-
biiity of the Emperor's character with the
steady purposes, andlains of the old Emperor
William.

European estimate of the new German
Chancellor is thus expressed in London
journal.
LONDON, Oct. 29.-"The Morning Posts
Berlin correspondent says:
Prince Hohenlohe being no speaker, DR..
Won Boetticher probably will be the govern
ment's mouthpiece in Parliament for home
affairs, and Freiherr Marschall Won Biaber-
stein will represent it in foreign affairs.
Prince Hohenlohes appointment continues
to be favorably commented on, although it
will be regretted 10 the Reichsland, where
he was universally and deservedly respected
and beloved. The position of Stratthalter
in his hands developed dignity and semi
independence with which only the Vice
royalty of India, perhaps, is comparable.
Owing to his and his wife's great wealth. the
sacrifice of the place of Statthalter, with a
salary of fs500, for the chancellorship, with
salary of f27G0, was inappreciable.

Carlisle Won't Aid Hill.
Especial to The N. Y. World.)

Especial to The N. Y. World.)
WAsHISGroN, Oct. 29-Secretary Car
Isle saw the President today and learned IN
a fve-minute chat what the politiei ms have
been trying for weeks to find out-whefe
Mr.. Cleveland stands in regard to the New
York campaign. Mr.. Carlisle will not dis
cuss bis visit to the White House, but there
is no room for doubt that his purpose was
to discuss the New York situation. The
logic of subsequent events is that MI.
Cleveland has decided on policy OF 81
lence, and that he will look with disfavor
upon any active sympathy with the New
York fight on the part of members OF the
Administration.
Secretary Carlisle had conditionally &C
cepted invitations to speak in New York,
indianapolis and Louisville, and had, in
fact, sketched the speech that he expected
to deliver. He was quite enthusiastic over
his prospective trip, and kilograms had been
received promising him great reception IN
each of these cities.
Before finally accepting he decided to
learn the Presidents views of the situation.
He had little doubt that Mr.. Cleveland
would approve of his campaign tour. Mr..
Carlisle found out differently today. Just
what the President said cannot be learned,
but it is no secret that the secretary re-
turned to the treasury department looking
quite disturbed over the interview. He no
sooner had reached his Office than he
touched a bell calling messenger, and
sent dispatch to Major Hnkley declining
the invitation to address Brooklyn met
ing on Thursday night.

The registration in New York city has
fallen off enormously in the Tammany
strongholds, while it has increased heavily
in the more reputable wards. Sixteen Tam
many assembly districts show decrease of
IL 900 in the registration. This shows
plainly that in preceding campaigns the
Tammsny heelers made fraudulent registra-
ton on an enormous scale, which they deem
unsafe to repeat with the eyes of the Lexow
committee upon them.

There is of course but one United States

the designating title which we are in the

They are the United States of Mexico,

The Democratic newspapers of the South
are pouring hot shot into Cleveland for de-
sorting Hill in his desperate New York cam
paign. The Southern Bourbons now see
what they might well have seen before, that
Cleveland cares little for Democracy or any
other politics except as a means of crafty
ing his selfish ambition. Even so conserva-
tive and influential a Democratic paper as
the Philadelphia Times joins the New York
Sun in strongly disappearing the conduct of
the Democratic President in deserving Hill.
There is little doubt that the tank and file
of the Democratic party, North and South,
are with Hill and adverse to the course of
Cleveland 10 the New York campaign.

BRoCKroN, Mass, Jan. ll.-Rev. Oliver
p. Emerson of Honolulu, secretary of the
Hawaiian Board of Missions. delivered an
address in the Union Congre gational
church, Eas. BIZ lgewater, this evening.
Mr. Emerson was born in Honolulu, came
to this country in 1865, returned there in
1888, and has since made that his resi-
dencp. He was in Honolulu when Minis
ter Stevens landed the marines and is a
staunch supporter of the provisional gov
ernment. He paid high tribute to Minis
ter Stevens and said
I'VE all believe in and love him. He was
in sympathy with the provisional govern
ment He would not hsve been a decent
man if he had not been. but he was neutral
in this matter. He had the right in landing
the marines when he did. If he had not
done so he would have left the people in
that city de ferceless that night. ! have
yet TO learn that ia doing this he intimidated
the clticsrs of the dominant or Royalist
party IN the least.
"The United States may restore the
Queen to the throne, but so long as we have
sba,pshooters in Honolulu we will not hove
II .yalist government. She may be re-
stored, but it will require good deal to
keep her there, as the provisional govern
ment is sustained by public opinion
After the meeting Rev. Mr.. Emerson
stated that he voted for Cleveland when re-
siding here in 1884 and he believed him per-
fectly honest, but that he had been misled.
