BERLIN, March 24.-Emperor Williams
high-hying intentions do not stop at the
success achieved by the Russo-German
commercial treaty. He recognizes that the
unbounded resources of America consti-
tute a standing menace 20 European trade
and industry. and although he has the
greatest sympathy for America a1d Amer
leans, the Emperor is also awake to the
danger of the competition of such blow
as that inflicted by the Mckinley policy.
His idea is that Europe must be prepared
10 take common stand, not alone against
any individual nation in Europe, but
against all nations.
The well-knOwn ambition of the Empe-
ror to bring about friendly commercial re-
latons between the European nations
showed itself years ago, and in the calling
of the international congress in the inter
est of the better protection of workmen.
His many travels enabled him to look upon
such matters with an eye which does not
halt at the borders of Germany. The
movement spoken of. though still in en-
bryo. may be expected when events eces-
state it. This is now held to be the idea
indicated by Chancellor Won Capriv.
The so-called MIGUEL intrigue is still
canVassed in the conservative press,
where the Doctors prospects and fitness
for the chancellorship are openly dis
cussed. The intrigue is fomented by dis
appointed place. hun ters and from the fact
that DR.. MIGUEL has utterly failrd to gain
the support OF the Center larty, which
has many grievances against him and
which distrusts the effect which his pro-
motion might have on Germany's prestige
abroad. There is no need to fear that Ca
privfs position is In the least shaken.
The frequency with which Emperor
William has suddenly and unexpectedly
called the garrison Of Berlin under arms
has generally been regarded as evidence
of mere caprice upon his part; but 1t is
now becoming generally accepted as being
part of q well-deined scheme from the
Emperor to overawe the socialists. anar-
chi>t, and other dissatisfied elements of
the population. In this connection It is
remembered that the Emperor turned out
the garrison on election day, May day and
astly on the day following the socialist
celebration of the anniversary of the revo-
luton of 1848
Since the conclusion OF the Russo-Ger-
man commercial treaty, Count Won Eulen-
berg has returned to his duties as Prussian
Minister at Munich, after short sOjourn
here, which led to the report that he had
been summoned TO attend the Emperor on
the atter's visit 10 AbbaZia. 1t is now
learned that the Counts visit to this city
was connected with his impending ap.
pointment to succeed Prince Reuss as en-
bassador. DR.. ThielmanD, the negotiatOr
of the Russo German commercial treaty,
will succeed Won Gutenberg.
The Cologne Gazette says it is author
lied t. state thai Herr Benningsen, leader
of the National Liberals. does not intend
to retire from active political work upon
completing his SEVENTEEN year.
The very representative suite which En-
peror William has taken with him to Alb
bazia seems to indicate that important
political matters may arise during mis-
sojourn. The suite includes the military
and naval secretaries. high official OF
the Foreign Office and physician.
Emperor William is not expected to re-
turn from AbbaZla until toward the end OF
April, when he will reside at the new
palace at Potsdam. He recently decided
to have a canal cut from the Havel close
to the new palace to an arm of the same
river flowing past the Villa 1ngleheim.
recently erected for the Crown Prince.
This villa will be enlarged by the purchase
of adjoining lands.
Caprlvi will POSTPONE his Welt to Caris-

Empress aud the three children after
leaving Abazzia will proceed to the palace
of Wilhelmshoe, and from there the i'm
perial family will proceed to the island
of Bugfen. in the Baltic, in order to
enjoy sea bal hing.
Francis Joseph will arrive at AbaZzia
next week, and will accompany Emperor
William upon several of the latter's con-
templated sea trips. Emperor William
