KAISER BACKS DOWN.
Gives Up Attempt to Force Canal Bill
at Present.

Berlin May 3-The chancellor Count
Won Buelow has notified the respective
presidents that joint sitting of the diet
for tonight has been summoned for the
purpose of hearing a message from the
throne.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press learns authoritatively that Dr.Non
MIGUEL the Prussian minister of finance
has resigned and that his resignation
has been accepted.
The liberal papers expect other resig-
nations in the ministry mentioning
Baron Won Hammerstein, minister Of
agriculture ana Herr Brefelds minister
of commerce.
The National zeitung expects that
Herr Hhielan. minister of public works
viii be retained. thus expressing the
governments purpose to adhere to the
canal bill. The fate of the other min
listers is uncertain.
Count Won BueloW will read the mes
sage from the emperor at the joint sit
ting OF the diet tonight.
The press today still discusses the sit
uatiOn. The kreuz Zeitung considers
the Propagation a satisfactory solution
fer the present confusion as it will pre-
vent the conservatives and Emperor
William from drifting further apart,
which end the liberals are trying to
promote.
The Deutsche Tages Zeitung, assumes
that Count Won Buelow advised the eIn-
peror to accept the propagation It adj
mits it is a bitter pill for his majesty but
it proves his capacity as ruler, for
his wise resignation shows he is master
of statesmanship.
The liberal papers criticise the weak
ness of the government in merely ad-
jOurning instead of deciding on a DISCO
luton and new elections.
The Tageblatt says the step shows the
utter helplesness Of the government and
is a confession that they do not know
their own minds
The vorwaerts heads its editorial who
Swallows2" and ridicules the ministrys
weakness.
The Boersen Courier, concludes that
Count Won Buelow lacks energy and
management.
At the opening of the lower house of
the diet today the president, DR.. Kroe-
cher announcing that at the joint ses-
sion this evening. the diet would be clos
ed suggested that il would be useless to
transact further business. The house as
scented and the sitting was closed with
hOchs for the emperor.
