evening.
The official version Of the meeting Of the
Fmperors Is contained In the following tele-
gram from Court Minister Freederics, sent
from Bjoerkoe:
German imperial yacht Hohenzollern
dropped anchor near the Polar Star. En-
peror William accompanied by Prince
Albert of schleswig Hostein. and attended
by his suite, was rowed to tho Polar Star.
His Majesty was received at the head
If the ladder by the Car and Grand Duke
Michael Alexandrovitch. Cordial greet
ines having been exchanged, the Emperors
reviewed the guard Of honor and the yachts
crew. The two suites were then presented,
after which their Majesties retired to the
deck saloon.
AT II P. NJ. the Car and Grand Duke
accompanied the Kaiser aboard the Hohen-
zollern, whence the 1orIner Tet uIiieo w eho
Polar Star at 130 A. M.
From we'll informed quarters it is learned
that the Kaiser was willing to express his
views on an absolute monarch's proper
relation with the Socialistic interest, ex-
pressing himself as a sovereign ruling by
Divine right to the only other Emperor
whose authority is similarly derived. In
the matter Of external policy the kaiser's
purpose was to dissuade Russia from
abandoning definitely her policy Of expan-
sion in the extreme Orient, and especially
to discourage her from turning toward Asia
Minor and the Persian Gulf.
BERLIN, July 24.-THE Sun correspond
snt Is in a position to repeat authorize
lively that tho meeting between the Kaiser
and the Car was due to the initiative OF the
Car. An inspired statement as to the
meeting is made hero. 1t says that the
Kaiser was willing to advise the Gar upon
any questions OF internal or external policy
which the Gar may put, but would not
take the initiative in the discussion.
It was taken for granted that the Kaiser
would recommend reforms and peace as
the basis for reorganization OF the country,
which is regarded as essential to the in
terests Of Germany.
There was q rise in Russian securities
on the Stock Exchange to-day, but holders
we're not disposed to sell.
PARIS, July 24.-The St. Petersburg cor
respondentsUf the Matin says:
After having been In fear OF an Anglo
French alliance, the Kaiser now breads a
possible alliance betweenJapan and Russia,
Il was for this reason that he proposed to the
Car that they should meet.
Friends of peace here fear that the Gar
may return TO Russia encouraged to con-
tinue hostilities by the words OF Emperor
William. The latter, on the other hand. is
believed to be very anxious regarding the
progress Of the revolutionary movement in
Russia"
Jean Jaures, the Socialist leader writing
in his paper, L'Humanitf, says:
1T is a heavy responsibility that William
assumes in accepting a proposal to meet
the Gar, for the whole world will think
that il Nicholas, infatuated and unbalanced,
makes an appeal to his German cousin
It will be in order to ask his advice on do
mestio as we'll as foreign policy; and it is
known, or at .any rate imagined, that the
weak will Of the Gar will not be able to re-
sst the firmer, or at least more vehement,
will Of his interlocutor on this occasion.
1T is to the inspirations OF William
that the whole world Of humanity will attrib-
ute the decisions os Nicholas. What ad-
vice then. will the German Emperor be able
to give the Carr Can he give him en-
couragement to be the absolutist OF tradi-
tom That would be acting in defiance OF
evidence and the necessity Of the case. 1t
would mean setting out to resist the move
ment Of Europe for a century past"
The Ecldir says: THE grave misfortunes
Of Nicholas II. have emanated 80 directly
from London that he will have no difficulty
in clasping the hand that William proffers
him. The folly Of Delcasse and his treacher-
Gus advice to st. Petersburg will have con-
tributed to this demo uement II becomes
fact, and to-day's clumsy Anglo-French
Irritation, which London Government still
prolongs, will further aid In precipitating
the surprises which the German Emperor
meditates and which will be the greatest
triumph Of his policy
LONDON, July 25.-Ths keen curiosity
which has been stimulated throughout
Europe by the meeting Of the Emperors
has not yet been satisfied. Notwithstand-
ing the speculations and surmises, intelli-
gent and otherwise, which food the press
o.. every country, no real light Is shed on
the mystery The st. Petersburg CORE
spondent Of the Morning Post likens Rus
sian society in it's eagerness to unravel
the puzzle to hen whose duckling has
suddenly taken to the water. Nobody
understands it and everybody has Differ
ent explanation.
The pro-German court party, 1t Is al
legged, launched the coup Immediately
after NJ. Wittcs departure. in order TO
checkrate his suspected maneuvering for
an English, French and Russian alliance,
while the official Russian world, which
is bitterly hostile to German influence,
is convinced that German intimacy would
he more detrimental to the interests Of
Russia than the open GOODNESS Of many
other Powers. Certain diplomatic circles,
which are completely nonplussed by the
episode, share the view Of majority Of
st. Petersburg politicians that the incl
dent is another exhibition OF the Kaiser g
impulsiveness.

the Standard. who, however, admits his in
