Berlin. February 1s.-Emperor Will
liam's friendly conduct towards Great
Britain recently and the motives which
induced it still form the favorite SUBJ
ject for discussion here. It Sas be-
cause of this that unusual intere.st was
taken in Germany at the opening OF
the British parliament. The speech
from the throne and the debate on the
address in reply to IL were thoroughly
disappointing because OF the absence
Of any reference to closer Anglo-Ger-
man relations
Thomas Gibson Bowles' interpella-
ton anent the alleged German seizure
Of portion of the Belgian Congo was
seized on by the press today as proof
that the British peoples hostile and
meddlesome feelings towards Germany
remained unchanged.
The emperor's pro- British sentiments
and actions are still INCREASINGLY con-
demned. The Dresdener Machrichten
conservative says: "Since Prince
Bismarck's fall the relations between
the nation and the emperor were never
worse"
The semi-official press. since his ma
jesty's return. has been doing every
thing to counteract this all-prevailing
anti-emperor sentiment, but rather un-
skillfully and unsucessfully. 1t is note
worthy that the strongest opposition to
Emperor William in this connection
comes from the conservatives, which
party usually claims loyalty 10 the
monarchy as a monopoly
The Munich Allgermeine Ze ung
(nat.onal liberal. inspired) announces
that Count Won Buelow, imperial CHAM
cellor, assumes full responsibility for
Emperor Williams pro-British acts and
that he will seize on an early oppor-
tunity to show the nation thar his
majesty had good and sufficient reasons
for his conduct
There is no doubt that the cerr,an
"ar' Ihls is shown, not only by the
attitude OF the press, but by the utter
ances in the reichstag and Pruss,an
diet. 1t is true that the China expens-
es Tor 1900, amounting to I5s.ooe sep
marks, were finally voted, but the nm
posing socialist speeches and freisfnn5oe
criticism were heard by the conserya-
tives and centrists almost without re-
ply, except in connection with the mfs-
sions.
mass meetings called by the social
lists throughout Germany this week
passed strongly worded resolutions
against the proposed prohibitive aerf-
cultural duties. branding them as
most unjust and most onerous burden
Tor the working part of the nation
and dictated solely by the brutal c,as,
OF the empire and the lowest aerarian
seiishness." They not only protest
against increased duties, but demand
their entire abolition.
The Berliner Neueste Nachrichten
(conservative) has printed an article
making a strong argument that Ger
many has no need to fear a tariff war
with the United States even IL large
agricultural duties are Imposed, be-
cause A 1erican imports here are two
and one-half times those Of Germany
to the United States 1t cites q dis
patch saying the treasury department.
