Berlin, Sept. 2S.-Apparently with a
desire to associate the opening of the
Reichstag in the new and splendid parlia-
ment building in Leipsiger strasse with
/ the imperial house, the kaiser has ordered
that the session begin on Nov. 21, the an
niversary of the birth of his mother, the
ex-Empress Frederick. The builders of
the edifice protest against this, declaring
it will be impossible to complete the in
side decoration and other work by the
date mentioned. Part of the work is
being done by contract, aud the men are
working night and day endeavoring to
finish their work in the time allotted to
them.
THE REIoHsTAG AND THE BUDGETS.
It is the expectation of a majority of
the high officials of the empire that the
coming session of the Reichstag will be
dull, and that the governments proposals
increasing the naval estimates will be ae-
! cepted by the chamber without much OPP
position. The bills for this purpose are
the only ones that have yet been sub
mitted to the Bundesrath Therewill be
great deal of insurance legislation, ana
bills will be introduced regulating immi-
grafton, reforming the code of criminal
procedure and dealing with the question
of the taxation of tobacco. The last
named measure is the only one over which
there is likely TO be any party contention.
The budget is expected to show that even
after the expenditures under the in
creased naval estimates the total in
crease will be very small
The King of Saxony, Prince Regent
Luitpold Of Bavaria, the King of Wur-
temburg and every head Of the federal
government will attend theopening of the
session in the new building, but the ur-
gent invitations of the emperor to Empe-
ror Francis Joseph of Austria, King
Hum Der Of Italy the Prince of Wales and
several others have been declined for va
rious reasons.
THE COMING SOCIALIST CONGRESS.
The resolutions which will be sub
mttted to the coming socialist congress
will show that the attention of that party
is again occupied with the question Of re-
ligion as next in Importance to that of
property. One Of the resolutions has al
ready appeared and affirms that the

pared declaring that socialism means the
negation of all religion. In regard to
propertya resolution willssbe introduced
declaring the ownership of property is
theft, and an amendment 10 this resolu-
tion will be offered demanding the aboli-
tlon OF private ownership of lands. This
demand, however, is aimed only at the
big land owners, clause in the amend
ment declaring that the small land
holders ought not to be disturbed. The

that question.
POLISH QUESTION POPS Up.
Neither socialism, anarchism, nor any
other ism is beginning so strongly to
perturb public opinion as the Polish ques.
ton. Suddenly the Poles seem to have
, become unclaimed and the Polish nation
revived. Prince Bismarcks speech al
Varsein last Sunday has called attention
to the movements of the leaders in I,rus.

pointing out the fact that there is in ex.

THE KAIsER's PLAToNIc AFFECTION.
Court gossip attributes the growth Of
Polish influence TO the emperor's platonic

action of the German and Austrian EN-,

OF a concerted policy to the end Of the re

poise TO the Pan-Slavic movement. AZ
