GERMANS QUICKLY GRASP 1T.
There Will Be a Great Rush of
Exports.
EMPEROR WILLIAM IS ACTIVE
Great Preparations for the Coming
Maneuvers of the Army
and Navy.

BERLIN. Sept. 1.-The effect of the new
tariff bill has been instantaneous IN Ber-
lin, Fran k fort and other export centers.
The very day the law went into effect me
invoices passing through the United States
Con sulate increased 30 per cent and on the
following two days the number was dou-
bled. The industries most affected are
decorative china, paper ware and cneml-
Gals. The whole German export trade to
the United States will be increased owing
to the passage Of the United States tariff
measure from 100 to $50 per cent for some
months, IL present indications can be re-
lied on.
The Vossische Zeitupg printed q ver-
batim translation of the United States
tariff bill on Wednesday last in an extra
edition, a piece of journalistic enterprise
which is much commented upon here as
being quite a departure from the usual
methods adopted in such cases. The bill
naturally has attracted widespread atten-
ton and The United s. ates cOnsulates
through the manufacturing districts of
Germany are flooded with inquiries as TO
the proper Interpretation of the new du-
ties and tariffs which come under them.
This is especially the case with the bigger
manufacturing firms, as the latter are TAX
ing steps TO increase their export business
to the utmost under the new measure.
Emperor Williams activity continues.
On Tuesday he reviewed his Brandon
burgers on the Templehof review ground.
He is in constant communication with his
advisers on all subjects and is diligently
discussing the plans to check the spread
of cholera. Yet he finds time daily TO take
long excursions.
Since Emperor Williams return to Ber-
lin large numbers of uniformed police are
always present at the railroad station
when he arrives there or departs from the
city. During the parade on Tuesday last
his Majesty was surrounded by a crowd
of gendarmes mounted and on foo. These
precautions are being connected with the
recent arrest of anarchists in this city.
An interesting hOrserace or test of en-
durance is shortly to take place. The En-
peror has ordered two officers of the dra-
COON guards to ride from Berlin to Col
Ogne, 312 miles. within four days. Each
officer is restricted to make use of one
horse and the two contestants will also
be accompanied by bicyclsts.
During the coming army maneuvers the

Owing to the prevalence of cholera in
certain districts. the naval review. fixed
to take place at Dantzic in the middle of
the present month, will be held at Swine
munde. and for the Koenigs berg festlv-
tiles the gathering of crowds has been
officially prohibited.
Ii Emperor William has not succeeded
in completely reconciling Chancellor Won
Caprivi and Dr. MIGUEL he has at least
been able to effect a truce between them
This result is apparent in a publi0hed
interview. in which the Chancellor is
quoted as saying that Dr.. Miguel must stay
in office. as his task is only half done.
The annual cOnelave of the German
Catholics at Cologne has been largely at
speeches. There was neither unanmity
of opinion on the school question, religious
instruction nor the recall of the Jesuits TO
Germany.
1t is expected that Robert Z. Kueebs, the
German horsepower, we'll known in
America, who was arrested here in Nav
last charged with ringing trotting horses,
will be released in a few days. Sworn
statements have been received from the
United States showing that the mare Bethel.
which he was supposed to have entered in
races here, after declaring that she had
never won race, was in the United States
during the period of his supposed running
in Germany under the fictitious name of
Nellie.
The magnificent sarcophagi of Emperor
William and Empress Augusta have been
completed and placed in the mausoIeum
at CharlOttenburg. Emperor William has
expressed himself as satisfied with them

The United States ambassador. the
Hon. Theodore Runyon. has been busy
since his return, but the statement that
he has been engaged in negotiation with
Herr Marschall Won Bieberstein. Minister
OF Foreign Affairs, In regard TO tho Amer
lean tariff is unfounded. The report cir.
culated in this city evidently caused great
annoyance TO the German Official, for the
National Gazette to-day formally denies
that the Minister of Foreign Affairs visit
ed Mr.. Runyon in connection with the
tariff, adding: "Such visit does no, cor
respond with the Diplomatic usage. No
interview has taken place in regard to the
sugar duties"
