that he would deal with the matter of his
relations to the clerical party with thor

to seek an understanding with the larg-
est party in the house, since only by this
means could the government secure the
majorities necessary to pass laws. He
admitted that the navy law. the tariff
and the commercial treaties were due TO

Issue of Recent Elections.

Taking up the issue Of the recent relch-
stag elections and the personal regime,
the chancellor said this was only raise
signal to deceive the voters. He charac-
terized as an impudent falsehood the
statement that the government had acted
;snsonstitutiOnally in the dissolution OF
the late reichstag and said that among
the greatest falsehOOds of the campaign
was the assertion that the Catholic re-
ligion was endangered by the new con-
flict of the German state with the 10
man Catholic church. The preparation
and spreading of such falsehoods, the
chancellor said. was unpatriotic-
Prince Won BuelOw sharply critieiseo

that this was not only q great political

he praised the attitude OF the independ-
