news has been obtained Of the report that
the reichstag. when 1t reconvenes, will re-
ceive the naval bill and the military re-
forum trial bill. In regard to the naval
bill. however. the government will en-
counter strong opposition from the center
party Through its leader. Herr Leber,
II sought to effect an undertaking with the
chancellor, Prince HoheuIohe, but the eff
fort failed. The center wished for PROM
ise that the Jesuit expulsion law would be
repealed, in exchange for which the center
engaged 10 support the naval bill. But
Prince Hohcnlohe fatty refused and the
naval bill can not pass without the votes of
the center party.
The refusal OF Prince Hohenlohe to agree
to the demands of the centrists was solely
due to the instructions OF the emperor. who
feels highly indignant at the popes ency-
cical, in which the reformation is repre-
scented an having been an unholy rebellion
and In which the Prussian kings are rough
ly handled. Severe comments on these
passages have been made by many Protest
ant clergymen and leaders in Prussia and
the remarks were, during the month Of
October. brought to the attention of both
the emperor and empress and greatly in
censed them.
The Boersen Courier, leading financial
organ, says: I'VE are approaching famine
conditions. Victuals have risen in price
to such an extent that the sustenance of
whole strata OF the population is in doubt.
Meat has been cut from the lab0ring classes
--hhanks TO the import prohibiion--an ar
ticle of luxury hardly obtainabe and poor
crops have driven the prices of cereals to
such heights that not only the Industrial
population and the jewellers in cities, but
even the rustic population, excepting that
part OF 1t belonging to the suffering agra
rians, are threatened in their existehce. A
moment Is approaching when the govern
ment viii be compelled to throw open
again those avenues OF trade which are
now artiflcially clogged."

Fred Morey has been spending
few days experimenting the work on
his new summer resort. When ne
gets it completed he will have one OF
the most commodious summer hotels ID
this locality. Last fall he built cot
tage and now he is at work on another
cottage besides a good-sized hotel bull
ding. He is also contemplating erect
ing more cottages SO that when he gets
his resort completed it will make quite
a village and will accommodate any num-
Der of guests. 1t is bound to become
popular with the summer tourists and
pleasure seekers. 1t is located in the
center of the finest hunting and fishing
region in the country. It is situated
on point of land between Cranberry
and Cat Fish lakes, two as fine clear
water lakes as can be found anywhere,
and part of the famous Eagle chain
of lakes. Besides row boats and sail
boats, fine steam yacht will be kept
in connection with the place for the
convenience and pleasure of the guests,
who besides enjoying the finest fishing
in the world, can have the pleasure OF
a twenty-five mile trip through chain
of lakes that are unsurpassed for their
beauty anywhere. This resort will be
opened to the public about the first OF
next month and we expect to see it
well nat snnized from the start.
