r BERLIN, March 9.-The public is
looking forward to the converting
of the state council on Tuesday with
a deal of interest. Emperor William
will deliver a comprehensive adj
dress defining the scope of the delib-
erations and the propositions to be
submitted TO the council. The queS-
ton of the restriction or prohibition
of the entry of American cattle or
meat into Germany will be one of
the subjects which will be fully dis
cussed. The emperor, personally, has
obtained exhaustive information
from the minister of husbandry, Won
Hammerstein, during an audience
last Monday with the latter which
lasted two hours. His majesty took
the occasion to familiarize himself
with the leading topics to be dis
cuSsed by the state council and he
will share the labors of that body
as far as circumstances will per-
nit, attending many of the sessions
if possible.
according to the promise of the
federal ton of husbandry made to the
emperor, will not be introduced in
the reichstag until after it has been
considered by the state council in
all its bearings. Emperor
WILLIAM is IRRITATED
at the attitude of the agrarians re-
specting the credits asked for on be-
half of the navy department in the
reichstag, and it is reported that
his majesty has expressed his indig-
nation rather freely respecting the
bill. 1t is stated that on the occa-
sion of the recent banquet of the
Brandenburg diet the emperor, while
privately converSing with Baron Won
Manteuffel, strongly expressed his
disapproval of the proposed grain
monopoly. According to the version
of the story, the emperor said: You
cannot expect me to engage in usury
with bread" Another account has
it that the emperor remarked: 81
cannot help in making poor peoples
bread dear"
An expression used with reference
to the navy debate by the agrarian
leader, Won Ploetz, "Ohne Kanitz
keine kaehene" without Kanitz no
Ships, came to the ears of the en-
peror and was very much resented
by him. -
INFLUENZA co..
is still rampant here. The Duchess
of Sagan, mother of the wife of the
German ambassador at Washington,
died Of that disease today. The Duke
OF Sagan is only just recovering
from an attack of the same dis
ease. Emperor Williams eldest sis
ter, the Princess of axe-Meiningen,
is improving; two Berlin judges,
Wilmer and Holman, have died
from the effects of influenza, and DR..
Bellermann, director of the Grey
convent and gymnasium; DR.. Carl
Peters, the German explorer; M. E.
De st. Claire, first secretary of the
French embassy, and Herr Dreuh-
mann, president of the court of
chambers, are among those pros
trated. The epidemic is seriously in
terfering with the business of law
courts, and in several public schools
and gymnasiums, owing to the sick
ness OF so many of the teachers and
pupils, whole classes have been sus-
pended. In the whole of Germany
last week, Nuremburg had the doubt
ful honor of heading the influenza
statistics with the biggest sick list.
ham burg came next with LASS; Rres-
lau, Cologne and Halle were affected
in lesser degree
The family of United States AM
bassadoE Runyon have all recovered
from attacks Of influenza, and Thurs
DAY night ball was given at the am
bassador's house
The long and friendly conversation
which the emperor had with the Duke
Oh Cumberland while his ma jesty was
IN Vienna upon the occasion of the
funeral of Grand Duke Albrecht has
revived the hopes of the Guelph party
IN Germany. In the court circles the
opinion prevails that Prince George.
the Oldest son of the Duke of Cumber-
land, will be the reigning duke Of
Brunswick upon attaining his majority.
the Prince Regent Albrecht being
very wealthy and not enam-
ored of his office. He harbors no
intention of founding a dynasty for
brunswick. He is besides an ultra
Legitimist, and never approved of the
deposition of the Guelphs. The prince
regent regards the regency as a pro-
Vlslonal arrangement, and absents
himself from Brunswick as frequently
as he decently can. Saturday nextche
goes to England to enjoy sea bathing
at lllracombe until the middle of April.
A reflex of the new condition of things
was seen in the reichstag this week
when Guelph member supported the
governments demands for the navy.
Prince Christian, of Hohenlohe-Oehr-
ngen, was the
GUEST OF BISMARCK
at Friedrichsruhe Sunday and Mon
day last. The latter spoke of his wan
ing strength and DIR. Schweninger's
positive prohibition to excite himself
and receive large crowds. In addition
Prince Bismarck expressed grave
doubts as to whether he would be
equal to. the task of celebrating his
him to do publicly and with all kinds
of demonstrations. To avoid the spec
tacle of the reichstag holding aIoof
from celebrating the birthday of the
prince the Easter recess will begin on
March 80, the house extricating the
members of that body from an en-
barrassing situation. The reichstag
abandoned the idea of officially par
ticipating in the celebrations owing to
the opposition of the Centrists, Social
lists and Rightists wing of the Rad
icals, and the decision not to sit ON
April l, the princes birthday, is a
compromise arrangement The en-
peror has Informed Prof. Won Sybel,
the historian, that he will personally
participate in the celebrations.
