TO LIGHTEN MEAT LAW
Chancellor Hohenlohe Makes
Enforcement Easy.

Copyright, 1900. by the Associated Press. J
Berlin, June Prince Hohenlohe, the
imperial chancellor, gave assurances
to an informant Of the correspondent of
the Associated Press today that the
bundesrath is drawing up the para
graphs for the carrying out of the
provisions of the meat inspection bill,
would frame them in such a manner
as 20 consider the legitimate wishes of
the American and British governments
as much as the tenor of the law will
permit.
The chancellor bitterly complained
that he was now wholly isolated in the
cabinet on this meat question, Count
Won Posadowsky's influence having be-
come paramount even with the minis
ter of foreign affairs, Count Won Bue-
low. UnfOrtunateIye too, DR.. Won Iu-
canus, the emperor's private cabinet
chief, and Count7von Posadowsky, have
! managed to make the emperor believe
that the meat bill compromise as
adopted represents a great victory over
| the agrarians, in which his maiS> "
! innocently rejoices. The centrist lead
! er, Herr LiebeT. who has been very
III for months, ard VINO from several
visits TO America is most friendly to
the United States, has only just re-
| turned to the reichstag, but is still too
weak to reassume the leadership of the
center.
To the Associated Press correspon-
dent, Herr Lieber said he regretted his
forced absence, as he regarded the
terms excluding certain American
meats too stringent. He became con-
WINGED during his visits to the United
States that the slaughtering there was
good in every respect, and that the
mat and sausag es there were as
healthy as here.
Expect Quiet in China.
The foreign office informed the As
ISOLATED Press correspondent that the
situation in China has improved dur
ing the past few days. The Chinese
military authorities have shown great
er energy and now seem masters of the
situation. The foreign Office expects
the troubles viii be quieted without
further violence.
Riots Against the Jews.
The excitement and street riots in
Konitz, as a result of the death of the
lad Winter, attributed to the Jews,
continue in spite of the active inter
ference of the military Martial law
has been proclaimed there. Everybody
must leave the streets at p. m, and
the military have been instructed to
use their rifles if again attacked. Cap
tain Hesse and Commissioner of Po-
lice Block were seriously wounded last
night by stones.
Kaiser Held Too elf-Important
number of influential papers dur
ing the week have published articles
about his maiesty's personal regime,
some approving and others disapprov-
ing. The Cologne VOlks Zeitung points
out that the emperors fashion of
speaking about the German navy as
my navy is against the constitution,
adding that the advisers around his
majesty ought to tell him so.
Lessons in Boer War.
The senni-official Post says the South
African war has taught two important
lessons. viz: The cohesion of the Brit
ish empire even into the farthest indie
pendent colonies, showing that imperial
ideas really have taken root through
out the vast empire; secondly. that
Russia is not aching to march into
India.
