M|LDER TONI IN BERLIN
INFLUENCE OF COUNT Won BUELOW
SHOWS ITSELF IN FOREIGN
POLICY
HARD TASK CUT OUT FOR HIM
More Difficulties In Sight in German
Internal Politics Than in Set
Ting the Chinese
Question.

BERLIN, Oct 27-More sober views
about China now prevail here, owing,
doubtless, to the fact that Count Won
Buelow is known to entertain reasonable
ideas about Germanys tangible inter
ests therein, and that his influence, as
imperial chancellor, upon the impetuous
emperor, especially in foreign affairs, is
decidedly greater than Prince Hohen-
lohe'S. 1t is now generally believed here
that the Chinese muddle will slowly but
surely unravel itself and lead to a salts
factory issue without necessitating any
further large amount of actual hostill-
ties or an elaborate strategic campaign.
All the utterances of the semi-off1cial
press this week Show this belief. Only
the military party is dissatisfied with
this view. Doubts are still entertained
here, though, regarding the value of the
credentials OF Ii Hung Chang and Prince
Ching and their ability to enforce the
terms of any agreements reached.
L alleged latest edicts of the emperor
Kwang Su, are also regarded here with
suspicion, and even the possibility that
Ii Hung Chang himself Is the author or
instigator to facilitate the negotiators
task, is considered.
THEY DON'T EARMONIZE.
This weeks developments in German in
ternal politics have plainly demonstrated
what enormous difficulties the new chan
cellOr will have to contend with and
overcome to bring about something ap-
proXimating a harmonious cabinet both
for Prussia and the empire and resultant
harmonious action in all important gov
eminent measures. The Radical and
Liberal newspapers point out that pro-
nouncedly reactionary and agrarian mem
bers of the cabinet like DR.. MIGUEL
Count Won Posadowsky- Wehner, Baron
Won Hammerstein and Baron Won Rhein-
baben have no legitimate place in the
new regime, and it was for that this
portion of the press seized upon the III
