German mechanics cannot compete be-
cause they are used to a higher stand
ard of living. IN addition. German i'm
migrants with capital are cautioned
against investing in land, the title to
which, it is said is often fraudulent or
doubtful, or which other conditions
make Improbable. Clerks, teachers,
officers scientists and female teachers

America, no matter how undesirable the
conditions at their homes. The REICH

grant law proposed will not improve

The cabinet crisis continues. The un-
broken series of parliamentary failures
which the various ministers are meeting
| with in the reichstag, as well as in the
! diet have shown the emperor that the
! cabinet will not be able to accomplish
| any legislation of Importance owing to
its total lack of influence over the dele
| gates and the want of cohesion among
tie ministers. Some idea of the situa-
ton may be formed when it is known
| that the emperor, during the past week.
! said to a confidant: 'lt would be better
| for me to fetch the old man back again. .
BY the 'old man" his majesty referred
to Prince Bismarck.
The emperor is still regretting the dis
! missal of Baron Won koeller, the Prus-
sian minister of the interior, OF whom
! he speaks as being at least a capable
| man All the present ministers have
been discredited by the country.
These facts are openly discussed at
court and the possible successors of the
| ministers are warmly argued over.
| The emperor is greatly disgusted at the
defeat of the school reform law in the
diet due to DIR. Won Bosses want of skill.
and at the rejection of the chambers OF
commerce bill. which was hard slap
at DR. Won Boetticher and Baron Won
Berlepsch.
However, it is probable that the mem
bers of the present cabinet Will hold
their posts until the fall, as the sessions
| OF the diet and the reichstag are drawn
to a close and the emperor has Wei
filled program for the EulhifscF. Va
| will keep him in Beriinsfor months N
spite of this, it is borne in MIND that ms
majesty has expressed strongly to the
court the inability of the cabinet. and
there is an impression in court circles
that if the ministerial failures continue
| he NAV lose his patience and force the
! rasiegna +ion of the whole cabinet.
