The Staatsburger Zeitung says that after

expressed the wish that the memory OF
the great chancellor shall remain fresh and
undimmed with the German people, and
his grave become a place OF national pill

Emperor William. replying to the mes
sage of coincidence from the Hamburg
senate upon the death of Bismarck. tele-
graphs as follows:.
'.This xpression of your sympathy upon
the occasion of the death of the great
chancellor fills my afflicted heart with
peculiar thankfulness. At the head of the
German mission 1 realized with special
keerness the significance of the passing OF
our great national hero.
May the powerful emotion which his
death has caused among all Germans
throughout the world testify to the firm
determination of the German people TO
preserve and honor in gratitude the MEM
ory of that immortal statesman by an ut
ter devotion to the national idea, to the
emperor and the empire"
II Is now said that Bismarck's memoirs
have been deposited in London. where they

to Pinnow, his valet, the latter, disobeying
the doctors orders. gave him large glass
of champagne and mineral water. The
