GERmAN PoLTTfC-iL AFFIIRs.
Prince Hohenlohe's Retirement as Chan
 ceilor Predicted


 Berlin, Aug. 16-Whatever semi offi4 cial statements may be made, it would be difficult to assure the public that the retirement of General von Schellendorf from the war ministry Is not connected with the differences which have arisen between himself and General von Hahnke, chief of the imperial military cabinet, over the proposed changes in the military code of procedure
 The departure of Schellendorf strengthens the expectation that Prince Hohenlohe's withdrawal from the chan cellerie will not be long delayed after the czar has concluded his visit to Ger many, as Prince Hohenlofe, equally with Scheilondorf, is pledged to the reichstag on behalf of the reform of the military courts It may be however. that the reforms will be temporarily shelved should an eastern crisis de- velop.
