PRESIDENT OF the Reichstag. Last evening
the standing order was the motion con-
templating the exclusion for one day OF
any member whose conduct should be
regarded by the President as a gross vlo-
iation OF the rules. This action shows
the determination OF the committee to
hght to the last ditch for all the present
provisions of the departments. IL has
incensed the ministers, who have gone
from defeat to defeat on this Issue ever
since Llbknecht and Singer refused to
cheer for the Emperor and now seem to
be losing their last hope Of getting any
concession whatever. SO far their de-
mand for new rules has been ignored or
voted down. Herr Won Levetzow. who is
more ministerial than the ministry. said
to-day that in case the Reichstag should
confirm the committees decision, he would
resign the Office OF President. since he
did not feel equipped, as matters stood,
with safety to continue with the on
slaught Of the ruder elements In the
House. If after this threat the Deputies
turn deaf ear 10 the Governments APP
peals the ministry will not try TO hold
Levetzow I'm office, but Will let him 20
and will throw upon the House itself all
responsibility for any future rumpus or
stoppage of business.
THE ANTI-sOCIAIIsr BILL.
The attitude OF the committee on the
anti-Socialist bill Increases the difficulties
of the Ministers. The majority. of the
members rejected on Wednesday the
clause making the incitement 10 criminal
acts within the scope OF the measures
whether the acts should take place or not
a penal offence. Without this clause the
law would not accomplish its main pur-
pose, for the Government would still
lack power to discipline the Social Demo
committee held that that clause. as de-
Tended by Minister Won Keller, would
permit the prosecution OF all newspapers
opposed 10 the Governments politics.
The committee showed Itself equally hos
tile to the clause concerning The goriiica-
ton OF crime and It's penalties
This was too much for the imperial
Secretary, Neiderbergen. who let loose
some strong invtcuves against the com
mttee and announced, Ia the name OF
the Government, that In view of the
Radical amendment OF "Wednesday the
further alteration OF the bill In essential
particulars would render IL perfectly use
less. The committee accepted this state
ment as a threat to Withdraw the bill.

The Houses adjourned 20 consider the

DISSOLUTION WILL RrsCLr
The Nord Deutsche AIlgemein Zeitung
says that a dissolution Is inevitable IN cas
the anti-Socialist bill he emaScuated. II
represents the measure as given TO the
committee to be the minimum which tho
Government Will accept. Without th.s
minimum the Government would be un-
able to cope with the forces OF disorder
and to get 1t the ministers would not hesi-
tate to appeal to the German electors
IL is represented thas the Emperor has
found the situation so desperate that he
is preparing a manifesto calculated to IN
fuse the committees deliberations. lie
is expected to deliver the manifesto some
time during hts birthday celebration.
All the princes OF the empire have been
invited TO attend the great birthday ceie-
