birthday kept in Munich, where it is even
forbidden that the government and other
public buildings display the German flag
that day, and during theh crown princes
coming of age festivities and the presence
of the emperor Of Austria here. neither
the prince regent of Bavaria. nor tn heir
to the throne of that country came to
Berlin; onl van insignificant prince being
present. Nobody seems able to tell ex-
actly why this state of affairs exists on
both sides but Prince Ludwig's speech
certainly shows his sentiment is moro an
t-Prussian than ever. Not only the
North German press sides against the
prince, but even a large part of the Ba-
varian newspapers, and even several Of
the Munich papers nearest to the Bava-
rian court.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press learned today of good authority
lat the breach was started by gossipers
at both courts, who presented rumors al
legged to have been started at Munich
about the emperor, and by the empror
about tn prince regent and his family.
Next, the canal bill which the emperor
did his bestto push through, angered the
Bavarian patriots, including Prince Lud-
wig, because it was looked on as a fur
ther attempt to isolate Bavaria regarding
navigation especially on the Danube.
The imperial government still rejoices
at the passage of the meat inspection bill,
that the extremely anglerians have no
power to permit the Reichstag, as had
been feared hitherto. The agrians loudly
| particularly bcause of It's demonstrating
proclaimed that thte meat bill was too
! svere as a tst of thtir relativ strength
and as a preliminary to the struggle to
decide the nature of the projected inter
national treaties. In this sense the pass
age of the meat bill was a defat of the
extreme Agrarians. This fact is now
pointed out by the secretary tc tho Off
cial press.
The obstructive tactics by which Lex
| Heinz was defeated by the minority, are
| now strongly disapproved by the govern
ment and it's press as being a two-edged
sword which, If it once became an es-
! tablished institution; might easily lead to
the destruction of German parlamentar-
| ism.
| The latest news from South Africa is
generally interpreted as showing that the
Beers are tired of the war and are only
looking for a dcent pretext to make
| peace. Tn Kreuzzertung says:
Drawing a parallel between the Beers
and the ancient Germans there will not
be such a fight of desperation as that
of the Goths at Naissus."
The paper adds:
THE Beers do not possess the species
/ of personal bravery which in European
armies is self-understood. If this knowl
edge had obtained here sooner, the Beers
would not have enjoyed such popularity
Quick justice is being c2eted out to the

labor Herr Bebet publishes in the Yer
