PRESSED BY Won EULENBURG

BERLIN, Oct. 20-The feversh activity
of Emperor William was never better ex-
emplified than during the last week. The
early part was occupied with fitting from
town to town attending different cere
monies, while he has been during the lat
ter part of the week engaged by various
public functions in connection with the
visit of King Alexander of Servia. The
rapidity of his MajeSty's movements was
especially shown at the beginning of the
week. He spent Sunday at Friedricbsruhe.
the castle residence of eX-Empress Fred
erick. On Monday he arose at an early
hour and started for Darmstadt to visit
The Grand Ducal family. On Tuesday he
went to Weisbaden to unveil the statue of
his grandfather, William |, and to open
the Royal Thester at that place.
After a busy day there he travelled by
special trains and arrived in Berlin in the
morning in time to take part in the cere-
mony of mailing TO the STATS the 132 flags
destined for the new fourth battalion of
infantry. Another couple OF busy days
followed. including the Interesting cere-
mony of blessing and preseD ting these
flags, gala dinners and other ceremonies,
during which ne found tima to attend to
much business, and to-day found him en-
gagged with internal politics. At noon the
Emperor received deputation from the
Farmers Alliance of East Prussia. His
Majesty was attended by Count Eulen-
burg, president of the Council of Minis
ters; DR.. Won Lucanus, chief of the Empe-
ror's Civil Cabinet, and Herr Heinrich Won
Leyden- Cadow, the Minister of Agricu!-
ture. Alter listening to the spokesman
the Emperor made reply. He expressed
his satisfaction that the deputation had
come to him personally and assured them
be would never relax his care for agricul-
ture. He afterward cOnversed with each
member Of the deputation on farm Ques-
tions. He bade adeu to the depulation
with many cordial expressions of good
win.
In spite of outward appearances and
newspaper statements il is asserted that
the conflict between Chancellor Won Ca
privi and Count Eulenburg respecting the
anti-socialist measures is not settled. On
the contrary. the situation is said to be
more critical than ever, and it has been
asserted that at a recent conference of the
Ministers bitter words we're exchanged
between the Chancellor and the PrusSian
Premier owing to ;he latter insisting on
more severe measures than Capryi was
disposed to introduce in the Reichstag.
The conference broke up with the Ministry
in discOrd. Since then Emperor William
mas brought his influence to bear, and the
dispute has been patched up. But CapriVi
is still. to some extent. at variance with
the Prussian Premier, aid inclined to re-
sign the Chancell0rship rather than SUBJ
init to the Reichstag measures with which
he has no sympathy himself, and which.
moreover, he is convinced the Reichstag
would not accept.
Won Eulen burg, who has the cOunte-
nance of the Emperor, is credited with the
desire 10 frame measures upon the most
comprehensive basis, including a revision
of the electorate laws excluding unfit per-
sons from the polls and raising the voting
age, in addition to plsclng a restriction on
the constitutional rights of assembly or
association as well as restricting the lib
erty of the press. The Socialists have
fully grasped the drift of these measures
and the Socialists organ, Vorwaerts,
threatens that the party will become out
aud-out anti-Governmental at the elections
for the Diet as well as for the Reichstag.
