THE GERMAN CH1NCELLORSHIP

After four years Count Won Caprivi has grown
tired Of being the catspaw Of a tickle master.
That is with little doubt the real cause OF his
retircment; a cause which. for fear OF the pen
altics Of lcSe majestic, the German papers will
not express. When the young Emperor dis
missed in disgrace the great Minister 10 whom
he owed his Empire II was evident that
Prince Bismarck would have 10 successor. An
other man might bear the title Of Chancellor.
He would not WELD the old authority Of the
office He would be the Emperor's clerk and
lackey nothing IEOrc Such has been Count Won
Caprivi's lot And he has been the clerk and
lackey Of a master Of arbitrary and most incon-
stant will: who would say one day "Black is
black" and the next day, BLACK IL white" but
every day. MY will is the supreme law"
single instance will show how variable the En-
peror has been even in the gravcst matters -
the very incident. indeed. from which the resg
nation of the Chancellor logically dates. 1t was
in last July. The question OF dealing with So
.alism had come up. Prince Bismarck's papers
aad others opposed to Count Won Caprivi We're
demanding special and severe repressvc laws
The Chancellor believed such were not nrcts
sary and not advisable, and that the ordinary
laws were sufficient. If rightly administered
his view Inc Emperor at HfSt 1ul! approved
Then, Ia "a day, he faced squarcly round, adopt
ed the Bismarckian view. and directed Count
Won Caprivi to prepare at once n draft OF re-
pressive laws, TO be submitted 10 the RechSag
soon possible. Not often does II Minister
have 10 endure such humiliation as this. Still
less often does one bear ii and remain In office
Count Won Caprlvi is. above all things. a soldier
and his military sense Of duty made him more
submissvely loyal to his master than most men
would have been. But his soderly dIrecness
and constancy Of purpose made the Empcror's

EAGER FOR THE BONDS.
English Capitalists Hunting for the
American Loan

LONDON. November 14.-The new United
States loan of $5O.OOO,OOO is hunted after
everywhere here by financiers who are de-
sirous OF taking portion of 1t. The stock
market will be only too pleased to take any
amount Of it. Many inquiries have been
made during the day at the Morgan's bank
ing house. The big loan will be most well
coined by the investors here who have idle
money.
The Rothschilds informed the Associated
Press that they are most cordially support
ing the issue. and that they have cabled to
the Belmont banking house to subscribe to
the new loan promptly in their name.
The Probable New York Subscribers.
NEW YORK, November 14.-It is believed
that the largest subscribers to the new
government loan will be Drexel, Morgan &
Co., the United States Trust Co.. the Union
Trust Co., j. & w. Seligman & Co., Brown
Brothers; Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and Speyer &
Co., some of whom will act as agents IF
English and German financial institutions
in subscribing for the bonds. This ac-
counts for the weakness in sterling ex-
change and reiChmarkS.
John A. Stewart, president of the United
States Trust Company, said today that the
circular asking for bids issued by Secre-
tary Carlisle was the best ever issued by
the government II plotcCtS Tie SOscI
ment," said Mr.. Stewart, lat every possible
point. There Is no doubt as to the success
of the loan. The bonds will all be taken
and paid for in gold, and the government
will not have to pay cent more than 3
per cent for the money. 1t lis possible some
of the gold received for the bonds may be
brought from Europe. and 1t Is also pos
sible that some bids may be received on
even more favorable terms than per cent
1 cannot say anything about any syndicate
bidding for the bonds, because / do not
know of any, but know all the bonds will
be taken. Every tub will have to stand on
its own bottom, and every one will have to
make an individual subscription. In my
opinion no subscription will be received the
maker Of which cannot pay for the bonds
in gold not previously withdrawn from the
treasury therefor. There will be no diff
Guilty in getting the gold, and any sugges-
ton that there may be Is foolish. The
banks will provide the gold, and they will
have no difficulty in getting the bonds II
they want them. The terms Of Mr.. Car
isles circular make the subscription open
to everybody. There Is a demand for the
bonds, and mark my words, the issue Will
be a complete success"

IN NORTH CAROLYN A
The Rumored Conference Between Senators
German and Ransom Denied
The Democrats, However, Hope to
Prevent the Election of n Re-
publican Senator.

There Is not much stock taken by demo-
CT ats In the story printed this morning OF
a conference between Senator German and
Senator Ransom, at which proposition
to secure one of the North Carolina sena-
tcrships was discussed. Ransom denies
that there is anything in the story, and
the chances are that the scheme will not
materialize. The proposition laid down
was to have an extra session Of the pres
ent legislature by the governor of North
Carolina to meet at once for the purpose
of electing a successor to the late Sena-
tor Vance, Jarvis now filling that vacancy
merely by appointment until the legisla-
ture shall have had an opportunity to ill it.
There is no question of the power of the
democrats to do this II they have no COM
Functions about using mere physical force.
A Bold Thing to Do.
But it would be bold. bald-faced thing
to do, and any one with little foresight
nay see that it would ultimately operate
greatly to their injury. 1t would be an
extremely short-sighted folly, now that
the people Of the state have expressed
their choice, electing a fusion legislature
to fill the senatorial vacancy, for a demo-
cratic governor and practically defunct
legislature to take recourse by sharp prac-
tice to thwart the will of the state. The
opinion Is expressed that 1t ts hardly to
be conceived that they will be guilty of
such folly, but IL they should be they would
hardly profit from II, for 1t may be safely
assumed that all the populists in the Sem
ate, condemning this action, would join
with the republicans to prevent a Senator
so elected from taking his seat. From Mr.
Ransoms denial 1t would seem that the
plan had been abandoned, If it was ever
for a minute entertained.
Hope to Avoid IA Republican Senator.
The democrats, however, have not aban-
doncd the idea of iE some way preventing
the election of a republican Senator from
North Carolina. If they have 1t in their
power to tempt the populists of the North
Carolina legislature to go back on their
alliance with the republicans they will
probably avail themselves of 1t. The demo-
Gratis would much prefer to see two popu-
list Senators from North Carolina to a
division between the populists and the re-
publicans The prospect of their being
successful in any of their plans however,
is as remote as their plans are obscure
