Berlin, Aug. s.-A dispatch 10 the Leu
ste Nachrichten from Munich today de-
mics the recent report that Prince Hoh-
enlohe, the imperial chancellor. has re-
signed. and says that the sole object OF
his visit to wilhelmslohe, where Empe-
ror William is staying, was TO make q
report OF affairs in the east.
| For some time past. the government.
| goaded by the Agrarians. has rendered
the import of Russian products, espec-
tally meat, cattle. horses, pigs and ce-
reals. very difficult. Contrary TO trea-
/ ~ stipula tons, vexatious fees and in
spectors dues have been imposed, am
ounting in many cases to 10 to 80 per
cent added TO the regular tariff rates.
Russian fresh pork has also been ex-
precautions. In addition, large ship
ments OF Russian rye and wheat have
been refused entry on the plea that they
were detrimental to health. Russia
has now made the most vigorous pro-
test against this treatment and, the
NOvoe Vremya states, threatens repri-
sails.
Austria is adopting the same measure
against Germany especially as to hides
and leather, as Germany has adopted
against Russian products and as a re-
suit the industrial and manufacturing
circles of Germany are alarmed and in
tend TO urge the government to reverse
it's boomerang policy.
PARSON AND ARTIST.
Emperor Williams Norwegian cruise
has been rather failure this year Ow-
ing to bad weather, and the emperor
amused himself with long walks TO pla-
ces OF interest inland. Every Sunday
the emperor conducted Givine services
on the upper deck OF the imperial yacht
HohenZo9lern. upon which occasion ne
read a homily freely interspersed with
his own remarks. Tn hymn singing
was very fine as there was a full band
and a trained choir of one hundred
sailors on board.
The emperor also occupied his leis- |
ure moments during the cruise in COM
posing march in honor of the Moscow
coronation, which he has dedica ted 10 |

derful yellow plague picture. The |
motive of the new work is the protec- |
ton of the arts and industry of the ar
my. Professor Knacenus, who painted |
the yellow plague picture, has been in I,
terested with the task this time.
The outline OF the picture is thus de-
scribed: Under a Gothic arch stands !
ideal female figures personifying the
arts and commerce. against which a
menacing cloud is advancing and from !
which cloud emerge terrifying hostile |
figures. The picture will be published |
as the other was.
The proposition to incorporate in the |
court practice of the different German |
states paragraph making the condi- /
tiontal pardon of lawbreakers depend /
ent upon their emigrating, which was /
discussed at the German lawyers con- !
gress, is being favorably received in {
imperial and legal circles and a com !
mittee of experts, headed by Professor I
Won Cuny. is now debating a govern /
ment bill on this subject.

part of the precautions to be adopted.
