BERLIN. Aug. 3.-There have been two
sensational facts in German politics this
week. One was the commencement Of a
serious campaign against the Chancellor.
Prince Hohenlohe. and the other was the
affront offered the latter by the Austrian
Premier, Count Goluchowsky and the con-
sequent estrangement OF the two leading
statesmen of the allied powers. The Col
uchowsky- Hohenlohe affair is being care
fully cloaked. officially, in Berlin. as well
as in Vienna and as result the Austrian
Premier's motives for offending the Ger
man Chancellor have not been learned.
But it appears that Prince Hohenlohe. soon
after arriving at Aussee, had an audience
with Emperor Francis Joseph. and, ac-
cording to an understanding arrived at
with the Emperor, Prince Hohenlohe wrote
a friendly letter TO his new colleague, Count
Goluchowsky, who was at Ischel. near by.
asking for long and confidential confer
ence and inviting him to his estate at Aus
see. The Austrian Premier replied, telling
Prince Hohenlohe that he would be glad
to see him later on at Vienna, hundreds OF
miles of. The Chancellor felt that Count
Goluchowsky's response was an insult, and
did not make any reply. The conference
therefore did not occur. as when Count
Goluchowsky after an interview with the
Austrian Emperor, tried to make amends
for his rudeness by sending a courier TO
Aussee announcing his coming, Prince
Hohenlohe replied that he was going hunt
ing and could not see the Count.
There is much conjecture in political cir
cles as to whether this unpleasant incident
will have the effect of disturbing the cordial
relations between the two CABINETS. The
attacks upon Prince Hohenlohe. after a Sc
ries Of inuendoes aud reproaches, es-
pecially from the Agrarian and Radical
press. have been simultaneously inaugu-
rated In earnest by the leading Conserve va.
Freisnnige party mouthpiece. the Vossiche
Zeitung.
THE PRINCE NOT RELIABLE.
The latter has devoted several columns to
showing that Prince Bohenlohe is not re-
liable In his promises. unstable in his pol
icy and convictions. and, therefore. quite
untitled for the post he occupies The
Kruez Zeitung, on the other hand, has
bluntly blamed Prince Hohenlohe for the
desperate condition of husbandry In Ger
many and for the fact that the govern
ment could not, without giving guarantees
for fulfilling it's promises, have made
count Of majority in either the Diet or
Reichstag. These attacks are construed
as being the beginning of a bitter war on
the Chancellor. The situation Is similar to
