A SHARP REBUFF TO THE KAISER
Defeat of the Auti -Revolutiou Bill In.
glorious Failure for Honeninhe.

London, May ia dispatch to the
Times from Berlin says: When the last
paragraphs of the anti-revolution bill
Were read out scarcely one conservative
remained true to the government. Thus
ended ingloriously the long fight in de-
tense of religion, morality and social or
der. What consequences are to be ex-
pected from this first defeat of the Ho
hehiohe ministry and who is to blame
chiefiy for the fiasco are questions now
exclusively occupying the public mind
OF Germany. 1t will not be surprising
TO learn that the defeat of the anti-rev-
olution bill creates a vacancy in the
RUSSIAN council of ministers. That no
result was obtained is in the first place
owing to the fact that the champions
OF religion. morality and social order
nave been unable to subordinate their
own wishes to the general good. The
radical and socialist organs are highly
delighted
The Times in leader this mrnine
says: The decision is serious one
ana perhaps the most serious featura
is that 1t seems to be thoroughly popular
win some of the most important classes
or the state. 1t is an unmistakable re-
pun to the policy proclaimed by the
kaiser himself In his famous speech at
koenigsberg last September. That the
result will be welcomed by large num-
