BERLIN, Oct. 10.-The kronrath or
crown council. which was held at
Hubertusstock on Wednesday at the
summons of the kaiser, was a. very
important event, inasmuch as it fornu-
lated the policy of government in re-
gard TO the legislation which is to be
submitted to the reichstag at the next
session of that body ON Nov 10.
Such council is very rare. only two
being held since 1890, when kronrath
preceded the dissolution OF the reich
stag, and the resignation of Prince Bis
marck from the imperial chancellor
ship. 1t is learned by the United Asso-
ciated Presses that The council held
this week was summoned by the e1npe-
ror at the direction of Prince Ho-
henlohe, who believes that the gravest
issues depend upon the coming session
Of the reichstag. The ministers who
attended the council were unanimous
in the belief that the present reichstas
will refuse to grant the naval credit
which the emperor wants, but they
differ as to the eXpediency of dissolv
ing that body. This reichstag will ex-
pire by limitation in 1898, and many
of the ministers were in favor of wait
ing and allowing the house TO
DIE A NATURAL DEATH.
The council agreed to convert the Ger
man 4 per cent. bonds into 352 per
cents.
The reply of the ear to the address
Of President Faure at the banquet
given in honor of the Russian emperor
in Paris was wired in full to the kaiser,
who made no effort to conceal his ir-
ritation upon learning that the words
precious bonds" We're authentic, and
had actually been used by the car in
referring to the friendship Of Russia
for France, thus allowing the existence
of no doubt that an alliance stronger
than a mere entente had been con-
Guided between Russia and France. 1t
is now very doubtful whether the en-
peror will meet the car at Darmstadt
and Hamburg. The crown council held
in Hubertusstock may result in
A CHANGE IN THE CABINET
and this possibility is causing a. great
deal of uneasiness in official circles.
Observing the grand reception given
to the car in Paris. German newspa-
pers like the Berlin Post, have tried to
boycott the Partisan events of the last
few days, describing the journals which

many looks without either hate or love
upon the most remarkable spectacle
that has ever been witnessed, namely:
That of a republic worshipping an alien

Paris are muogp warmer than those
given by him in Vienna or Breslau,
which fact, the paper adds, cannot we'll
be ignored. The Bissnarckian journals
suggest that if Prince Bismarck were

president OF the United States and that
high tariff in America will follow.
DR.. Barth the German economist now
in the United States, wired this week
( to the managers of the Deutsche Bank
that there was no doubt that Mckinley
would be elected.
| The Berliner Tageblatt today saws:
Mckinley and a Republican house of
representatives may be at their hot
test foe high tariff but uhe silver
senate will oppose them and therefore,
there is little danger that the tariff
