GERMAN CHANCELLOR At OUTS
WITH THE EMPEROR.
OVER AN APPOINT MENT
Won Buelow Overridden by Kaiser
William in Selection of Colonial
ecretary-Program for Additional
Naval Forces Finds Favor in
Reichstag Debate.

Berlin, March 28.-Chancellor Won
Buelow's relations With Emperor
William have been the subject of
much talk among the public recently
Now and then a German newspaper
has printed guardedly al intimaTion
of the chancellor crisis, which has
been followed by denials on the part
Of the newspapers having official con
nections. Since Herr Won Tschir
sky was apo nted secretary of for
eign affairs in January, in succession
TO the late Baron Won Richthoffen, it
has been said that the chancellor
was dissatisfied because Tschirsky
was selected by the emperor without
consultation with the chancellor
Every week brought out new story
The one of the moment concerns the
raising of the colonial bureau OF
fore.gn officers to cabinet grade with
Prince Ernest Won HOhellohe-Lang
enburg. director Of the bureau, to be
colonial minister. Won Buelow pro-
posed Prince Won Hohenlone-Lang
enburg for the place, but when the
appropriation was refused by the
Teichstag appropriations committee.
owing to the center party's oppOsi-
ton to Hohenlohe's anti-Jesuit cal
actions while regent of SAKE Coburg
and Gotha during the ministry of the
reign of Duke Charles Edward, the
chancellor, it is said, suggested thar
some one else must be chosen for
the post The emperor, however,
took the view that it was best to
support Hohenlohe and insist on the
reichstag making the appropriation
The question is likely to come up in
the reichstag in few days.
1t is certainly true that Won Bue-
low has been much criticised ana
there is a disposition to blame him
for the susp: cion and distrust OF Ger
many manifested abroad and several
government measures, especially tax
alton projects, have been approved
by the reichstag. Criticism, how
ever, centers upon the chancellor for
everything of which any one dis
approves. His position has been
especially difficult during the unceT-
tainties resulting from the confer
ence at Algeciras and his i'll wisfers
have utilized the opportunity to COZ
duct a limited press campaign agafnsG
him There is no certain indication
as yet, however, that the chancerloT's
position has been seriously affected
Naval Program Finds Favor.
During the debate on the naval biIl
in the reichstag yesterday Herr
SPAIN, center party leader, supported
the government He said that Ger
many had to reckon on the fleets OF
France and Great Britain being a.
rayed against Germanys increasing
fleet, adding:
I'VE hope for and must attain 81
point that the enemy will have to con
slider whether it will be wise to al
tack Germany or not. Parliament
ought to accept the bill without hest
tation"
Baron Won Richthoffen, conservative,
said the nation was conv need of the
necessity for a German feet. 1t was
impossible to have a colonial policy
unless supported by a feet
Admiralty Secretary TlrpitZ safCT
he believed the naval program wou7Ct
only make the German feet equal to
that of France.
