rich, amid loud iuurruurfons and
cheers, submitted ON behalf of tho
Centrists, a resolution disau7rovinr
of the proposal.
DR.. Won Bennigsen NJtionaI-Iib-
eral, warmly supported the request
Herr Richter. Radical amid repeat
ed protests, declared thar the Freis-
innige party was unable t0 support the
motion.
The house then voted 0n Herr Won
Levetzow's proposition, and it was re-
jected by 163 TO 1i6
HerrVon LevetZow Immediately an
nounced his resignation. causing an
extraordinary scene. the Right rising
in a body and cheering vociforouSly
and clapping their hands i'm approval.
Even the galleries expressed satisrac-
tiOn in the most open manner. Tho

be carried TO the extent of rejecting Il

been improving their position even in

cause great feeling i'm the country.

resents certain political principles and
his personality cannot be- divided into
the Bismarck who achieved so much
in behalf of German unity and the Bis
marck who has been thoroughly hos
tile to liberalism.
