BERLIN. Feb a-Financial and industrial
circles whose interests are menaced by tho
new schemes OF taxation have Just begun to
discover that q reference OF all OF Finance Min
lister Miauers financial projects to a single
Commission means . long period OF uncer-
tainty. IL must be summer before there can
be q definite settlement OF the questions that
affect i'm por; ant spheres OF business. Conse-
ouently the Government has been approached
with n View to getting IL to so reGntorce
the Commission that 1t can be divided into
sections to deal simultaneously with tho
Financial Reform bill. and the Dourse. wine,
and tobacco taxes DR.. Miguel maintains that
the schemes are so interdependent that 1t
would be unadvisahle to divide the Commits
sion, however long its deliberations may be.
Behind his avowed reason ls the design to OBJ
tain time in which to manipulate the mem
bers Of the Commission. The proceedings OF
the Com mission, so far as they have gone. dis
close that n majority OF the members are In
favor OF the Bourse taxes as proposed Ivy the
Government DIR. MIGUEL expresses himself as
sanguine that the wine tax. as proposed. will
be approved as will also tho tobacco tax. with
notifications Concerning the prospects, OF
the Financial Reform bill the newspaper or

Tho Roichstag's reception 1.-THE Russian tariff
convention is no longer doubtful. The Agrari-
ans will buster over tho measure. but the
Government will ultimately triumph. The
President OF tho ARrarian League recently
went TO Friedrichsruhe TO implore Prince Bis
marck to deliver q public utterance against
she proposed treaty The Prince declined to
grant the request. He even refused to influ-
snce the newspaper organs under his inspira-
tion to attack the treaty. Statements made by
the Agrarian press to the effect that Prince
Bismarck had promised his active opposition
20 the Russian treaty are sheer falsehoods.
The passage OF the treaty by the Rolchstag
appears so assured that representatives OF
large Russian firms are already here waiting
to conclude contracts on the. basis OF the new
tariff. These contracts will come into force
when tho treaty H. ratified; ,
treaty is attributed 10 his reconciliation with
the Emperor. Another indication OF his altered
relations with his Majesty is seen In an article
