BERLIN. Jan. Alphabetically the ip-
terest aroused this week conferred
mainly in the deliberations of the COM
mission to which the antl-revolution bill
was referred. Some bitter contests have
been fought within the commission be-
tween the representatives of the gov
eminent and opponents Of the bill, with
the result that the government was
forced to consent to lay before the COM
mission part at least of the material,
printed or verbal, upon which the bill
was based. The government also suf-
fered a distinct rebuff on paragraph 3,
making it felony to introduce social
istic or radical ideas in the army. and
the second and more important section
of this paragraph, providing severe pun
ishment even when Indictment has no
result, was rejected by IA votes to IL.
Emperor William last evening re-
ceyed in audience Count Aoki, the
Japanese minister. who presented his
majesty with insignia of the Order f

the emperor by the mikado of Japan in
recognition of the services rendered to
the Japanese army by the instruction
given by German officers to japanese.
1t is announced that the emperor has
expressed the intention of presiding
personally at the meetings of the
PrusSian state council, which will be
convened to discuss agrarian questions,
and that Prince Bismarck will be spe-
cially invited to take part in the delb--
erations. Count Won Kanitz and Count
Won MIrabach, the agrarian leaders,
will take part in the work of the couD..
Gil OF state, the former having already
been appointed a councillor, and the
appointment of the latter is being de-
cided upon. But the government or
CANS take pains to point out that Won
Kanitz's grain monopoly bill will not be
| accepted. On the other hand the oppo-
sition newspapers dwell on the fact
that the agricultural section of the
council is now totally composed of
I agrarians and big land owners, and
also that the agricultural commission of
the reichstag has resolved to forthwith
introduce Count Kanitz'S bill in the
rechstag. In spite of the energy Of the
promoters of the bill there is, however,
bat little chance of the measure becom-
ing law. ..-....

The Sugar Diaerential.
The news that the committee of ways
and means of the United States house
of representatives had recommended
the repeal of the American ditferential'
duty on sugar was received very favor
ably here. In an inspired article the
KreuZ ZeituHg points out Ihatthe sugar
Interests of Germany are now in a crit
ical condition, that 29,000,G00 cWt or
sugar are now on the market for eX-
port, and that unless there is a change
before August a number of sugar pro-
ducerS III Germany will fail and whole
districts will be injured tor years to
come. -a4+0f>

ment should come to the assistance OF
the sugar producers. and it proposes as
the only radical remedy to cenfine sugar
production to certain districts and to
increase the export premium.
