autumn military maneuvers, when a def
mite decision in regard to the reforms pro-
posed by the Minister of War will be
reached.
In high military circles it is the general
belief that this means the eventual defeat
OF the cabal in the Military Cabinet of the
Emperor headed by General Won Hahneke,
head OF that body, and the Emperors re-
tentlon OF the present ministry without
change.
The newest feature ofinternal politics is
the attempt of the former court chaplain,
DIR. Stoecker, and his followers to found a
pa arty to be called Religious Socialists, as
distinct from the Christian Socialists.
Orthodox Christians with anti Semitic
views and free from revolutionary bias
Will, according to manifesto published
In the Kreuz Zeitnng, be the nucleus of
the party, the first principle of which will
be conservation of religious faith, through
which alone the renovation of socierv is
possible. DR.. Stoecker, by thus separat-,
ing himself and his followers from the
unorthodox Christian Socialists, has led
Pastors Neulann and Gohre to obtain a
rapprochement with the Conservative
party.
For some time past the old army order
which prohibits snon-commissioned officers
and privates from taxing any part what
ever IN socialist gatherings has been rather
loosely enforced, and it had become yery
common to see soldiers of these grades in
attendance at the festive meetings of
socialists under the red flag. Several sol
diers were recently arrested for this
offense, and this hassinally awakened the
War Ministry, which has produced a
special edict declaring that non-com mis-
stoned officers and pri7ates must not be
seen at socialist meetings, nor will they be
allowed TO attend festivities of any kind
without hrst obtaining special permission.
The order does not stop here, but declares
that soldiers are liable to be severely pun
lshed for carrying socialist newspapers or
other literature into their barracks.
Herr Won Bennigsen, son of DR.. yon
Bennigsen, the National Liberal leader in
the Reichstag, was severely wounded this

TACT that Bennigsen carried out his in
structions by inspecting some territory
which was under Eschke's jurisdiction.
An official inquiry into Eschke's conduct
has been ordered by the authorities.

BERLIN, GERMANY, July 25.-It is an
nounced that the Emperor, after passing
the first week of August with the EN- press
and their children at the Schlossd at Will
helmshoe, will come to Berlin to meet
and confer with Prince HohenIohe, the
Imperial Chancellor, and General Bronsart
Won Schellendorf, Minister of War. It is
now known positively that his Majesty
will not go TO Cowes, as was expected he
would do. The programme is fixed for
his appearance at various public func-
tions during the time intervening between
now and the middle of September, when,
it is stated privately, he will pay visit to
| Queen Victoria at Balmoral, going direct
from Kiel to Aberdeen on board the i'm
perial yacht Hohenzoilern.
The relations of the Emperor with
Prince Hohenlohe and General Bronsart
Won Schellendorf occupy the first position
in the attention of the high officials of the
| Government.
The retirement of Prince Hoheniohe
from Office in the face of grave European
crisis is regarded by every one as being
extremely improbable, apart from the fact
that the Emperor has intru sted the Chan.
cellor with the task of conducting neeotia.
tions of q most serious character with
Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria and
Count Goluchowski, the Austrian Minister
of Foreign Affairs, and the additional fact
that Prince Lobanoff Rostovsky, the
Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs, is still
aiming at the maintenance of the integrit,
OF the Turkish empire. Still it is un
doubtedly true that General Bronsart yor
Schellendorf has offered his resignation t.
the Emperor, and 1t is equally certain thai
Prince Hohenlohe has informed ths
Kaiser of his desire to retire from office i
General Scheliendorf's demands for reform
IN the procedure of military tribunals are
not granted. 1t is understood that the
Emperor will request General Schellendor
to retain office until the close of ths
