Against the Order or Jesuits Chancci-
!, lor,Csprivt Eniustly. Charged With
Double Dealing La the Matter.

/ BERIIS, May st.AThe federal council,
has not yet. acted npon the bill to re-
peal the anti-Jesuit law, although the
reichstag sent up She measure weeks
ago. This delay has caused anxiety
among Professionals, Several weeks
ago the King OF Wnrtemburg told a
that he thought the federal
council would not consent. TO tho pro-
posed repeal. :.
= In the'last week the regent OF 'Da-
yafia and the duke. Of Saxe-Coburg.
Gotha have allowed similar opinions,
which they expressed to representa-
tivess Of hotestan synods,r to become
public. On Thursday two delegates
from the Prussian church had an inter
view >on the subject with Chancellor
Won Caprivi., They obtained from him
the assurance that he. would never as
sent to the return Of the Jesuit order.
AS the principal federal states are de-
termined to veto the rcichstag's propos-
al, and the governments of several
smaller states are preparing bills for
bidding the Jesaits to reappear within'
their borders, the exclusion Of the or
der. bids fair, to remain, the, settled
policy of the empire for years to come.
. Numerous petitions, which arc gath
ering signatures Ill over tho country,
show great popular prejudice against
the Order of jesus The prejudice is o
legacy of the Kulturkamp, which gives
no sign of disappearing with time. =,
The ,Germania, chief clerical organ OF
North Germany, voices the resentment
of the Catholics in vigorous denuncia-
ton Of the king Of Wurtcmberg, who is
accused ofiinterfering in the welfare OF
the3federal council. ,es e.s12c'a.,2
Chancellor Won Caprivi, moreover, is
charged with double dealing. The
Germania says that he deceived tho
group OF clericals, who helped him in
the Reichstag, because they had been
led to believe that he would not oppose
the repeal bill. The charge is unjust.
however, for the chancellor simply
held his peace and avoided any. signif-
cant act, merely letting the clericals
nurse the hope that he was more friend
ly to them because he had ceased to re-
buff them. - 49,
With his declaration on Thursday, he
abandoned this policy of Lying to- as
well as his old nonposlun,ls. The, clcr-
icals will reckon with him; us, soon as

Scenes Of horror that chilled The

enacted in the harbor for two miles be-

in violence during the afternoon, the
waves grew mountain high, dashing
over the breakwater, deluging the
tracks and enveloping the passenger
trains with torrents of spray.
