German Government ANXIOUS TO
Pass a Tariff Bill
Berlin, Dec. 5.-The reason the gov
eminent came to terms with the major
ity parties in the reichstag ON the
tariff bill was because it learned that
Russia was going to denOunce the COM
mercial treaty before the years end,
hence the necessity for getting the
tariff bill passed as quickly as possible,
in order to have basis on which 10
negotiate a new treaty. The govern
ment was also extremely anxious to get
the treaty ratified by the present
reichstag and remove the tariff and
treaty questions from the realm OF
practical politics before the general
election of June. In order to do this more
effectively indications point to the gov
ernment's intention to bring up some
military question, like the appropria-
ton for the improvement of the artil-
le1y. on which the election fight will be
made
