NEWSPAPERS SHARP TONE.
What these newspapers are saying now
arose from The publication of articles in
the leading London papers reporting the
possible establishment OF an English, Rus
sian and French alliance with the detach-
Inent of Italy from the Dreibund. The
German journalists, who are guiding the
tone of the best papers i'll Germany, are
quite cOnyersant with the truth OF what
an Euglish premier, now deceased once
said, that English politics is not guided
by such halr-brBincd chatter and irrespon-
sible frivolity," but coming on the heels
of the Jubilant articles OF the French
papers over the recent visit of the car
aud czarina TO Paris, the style of the coin
men,s induiged in by the British press was
felt To be intolerable and To demand some
notice.
The practical significance Of this vol
canic eruption of criticism on the par OF
the German papers, however, lies in it's
tendency to heighten German hatred toward
England. enabling the government at an
opportune moment to gef the country to
act in open hostility to. England, either
diplomatic or actively physical.
When calm-tOned Catholic paper, like
the Cologne Volks Zetung. now the leading
organ OF the Centrist party In the west
OF Germany, denounces England as con-
spring against Gernany at the Quirinai
and exciting the Italian government to
desert the Dreibund, while tile Berlin
TaGeblatt. the Berlin Post, and other organs
urge the Immediate ousting of the British
from Egypt, it is evident that German n
feeling is ripe for anything against the
English. 80.
RIGHTS OF AN OFFICER.
The official program OF the Rcichstag.
the opening session OF which body will tn ke
place on November 8, includes bills dealing
win emigration, an amendment 10 the
workinSnen's insurance system, and a
measure providing ior reform of the sys-
TEN of military jurisdiction.
The necessity for the latter measure Is
shown in an incident which occurred in a
cafe In Carisruhe last Tuesday evening
civilian named Siebemann upon en-.
tering the cafe, jostled against Il chair

was sitting.
The latter rose from his seat and roughly =
pushed Siebemann away, at the same time
demanding that he apologize. Siebemanr

were present interferred, and Sicbcnanr
