Chicago. Dec. 25.---Walter Wellman1,
Herald, says: F$st y! Es&
Thanks to the good sense and patience
of Emperor William, there is now at
least a fair chance that the threatened
tariff war between the United States
and Germany may be deferred for some
months, possibly for a whole year. The
kaiser and his advisers are said to have
q strong. belief that if the people of the
gain full understanding of the ques-
tion involved public opinion in this
country will force the government to
act in a reasonable spirit and to re-
verse the policy which now dominates
the republican leaders. 1872. ~
Observers in this country are not so
sanguine. To the German emperor and
his, cabinet, it may appear a reasonable
and natural proposition that the Ameri-
cans, noted the world over for their
in biting off their noses to spite their
faces. But the Germans do not as yet
FULLY realize the extent to which the
tariff fetch has taken possession Of the
republican leaders, nor do they under.
stand how eastern manufacturers, eager
to shut out the slightest hint Of Ger.
man competition wi tn their wares, are
determined to exercise their "pull'' in
congress and sacrifice the interests of
the west for their own advantage.
Modus Vivendi Discussed.
At any rate, Baron Won Sternburg
the German ambassador to the United
states, some time ago suggested to Sec
rotary of State Root that a modus vi
vendl should be agreed upon if possible
so that the threatened imposition of the
maximum duties of the German tariff
| law upon American imports need not be
put in force next March, as would be
the case II no agreement were reached
Secretary Root and Baron Won Stern
berg have had several conferences OF
this subject and the outlook Is better
than It was that something may be &C
compllshed toward postponing the crisis
and giving American public opinion al
opportunity to dictate more enlight
ened policy in congress. 80.
