Berlin. Nov. 1S.-The reassembling of
the Reichstag Tuesday caused hardly a
ripple on the surface of political life.
1t seems that neither the Reiehstag nor
the government is anxious for a conflict
over the pending measures concerning
which there is much heated difference of
opinion.
1t was different with the Emperor's de-
parture for England which probably
nine-tenths of the nation condemns Since
it has been generally known that the visit
would take place. the press of every shade
of opinion, which had been unrestrainedly
abusing Great Britain and grandiloquent-
ly pooh-poohng the notion of his majesty
going there, has become more cautious,
and now some of the papers even speak
approvingly Of tEe visit

visit, and against Great Britain in the
matter of the war The inspired press is
trying hard to convince its readers that
the visit is purely personal and totally de-
void of political meaning. Conversing
with a prominent diplomat on this topic,
the latter said:
1T is a fact well known to all the dip

Europe that Germany, having recently met
| several distinct checks from France on oc-
casons favorable to make common cause
against the common enemy. has, of neces-
sity, had to turn to England. This is 50
| patent to any one who has studied the
| events of the last fifteen months that 1t is
folly to pretend that Germany is backward
in seeking an entente with England 1t is
well known that the Emperor is vexed
with the peoples unreasonable spite
against England, and this sentiment is
shared by his advisers"
The sympathies of the Germans are

popular subscriptions for the aid of the

aged. Capt Won Heeringen of the marine
ministry has, by the Emperors order,
published a pamphlet arguing that the
navy should at least be in shape to ac-
complish its proper work. A number OF
popular movements in support of the plan
are being arranged including one for lec>

AS matter of fact, the movement may

navy yards are working to the utmost and
that new shipyards are being started.
The Official Post reproduces from Amer

at Manila is intended for the purpose of
supporting Great Britain in the Far East
