NAsrs COUNSEL DROPS CASE.
Their Withdrawal IA Dramatic Pro-
test Against Attitude of Court.

Rome. Dec yesterday afternoons
sitting at the Nasi trial was a particu-
larly stormy one. Signor Nasi protested
against the permanent presence Of po-
lice guard at his residence. declaring that.
rather than endure longer such an out
rage to his family, he preferred return
ing TO the common jail
Senator Blaserna. the new president of
the court, eager 10 accelerate the course
Of the trial, endeavored to persuade the
defense TO reduce their list of witnesses,
some 200 in number, many Of whom are
called to testify on quite irrelevant issues.
The defense. however. remained obdurate.
Moreover. assuming the aggressive they
demanded the absolute abandonment of
the evidence relative to subsidies.
A strong protest arose from the sena-
torial benches at the insOlent demeanor
Of Signor NasTs lawyers toward the pres
ident of the court till their temper rising
to boiling point. the defending lawyers
threw up their briefs and strode angrily
from the Senate House in body. They
have tonight sent a joint letter 70 the
president confirming their decision to re-
linquish the case.
Before the court rose SignOr Nasi de-
Iivered n vehemdht grafton. stigmatizing
the procedure Of the high court as out
rageoUsly unjust He approved fully the
action Of his counsel. demanded the ex-
clusion of certain OF his judges, and de-
clared that no opportunity had been given
him 10 defend himself or throw light on
the case.
The ex-minister's diatribes have so far
occupied about thirteen hours OF the
courts sessions. The view OF the press
in the capital tonight is practically
unanimous in attributing the dramatic
coup Of the defense TO a realization Of
the hopeIessness Of their case in face Of
the revelations daily accommodating since
the opening of the trial.

Just as she was executing the last

lasted about fifteen minutes, and the au-
dence burst into applause. she sank on
the stage with a low cry of pain. Her
death. which occv8red almost instantane-

by the crowded audience. which had no

GENERALS ERRORS SERIOUS
Kaiser Dissatisfied and Army Corps
Commander Is Retired.
Baron Kissing Must Give Way TO
Younger Man-Emciency 20
Be the WatchwOrd.

Berlin. Dec THE Kaiser has inform
ed Gen Baron Kissing. commanding the
Seventh Army Corps. whose headquarters
are at Munster. that his resignation
would be welcome. so that his place guay
be taken by n younger officer
Gen. Kissing has made known the En-
perors decision by the following order.
which he to-day issued 10 all regiments
under his command:
'-Since his majesty the Emperor has
caused communication 20 be made To me
that il IS his supreme wish that the COM
mand Of the Seventh Army Corps which
have held for nearly seven years with
unusual distinction and to his complete
satisfaction shall be transferred 20 an
other general because younger officers
must learn how to prepare themselves for
"A high command in war. have reported
to his majesty that / shall send in my
resignation on January I. 1905.
Il hope during the remainder OF the
tine ! am still permitted TO command my
fine army corps I shall be able 20 visit
the different garrisons and bid good-by
to my subOrdinates who have become. so
dear 10 my heart"
Gen. Bissirg's retirement is due TO errors
perpetrated during the recent maneuyers.
when the army which he commanded was
badly beaten. His generalship in real
warfare would have been disastrous for
Germany.
The general is a typical PTussian dis
ciplinarian OF the type good at parade
drill. but unequal to the requirements Of
the changed conditions OF modern war
fare.
The Emperor. who watched the maneu-
vers from beginning to end with the critI-
cal eye Of an expert. is said 70 have de
cided on the closing day of the maneuvers
that Gen. Kissing should be replaced. His
prompt removal from the command shows
that efficiency is the Kaiser's watchwOrd
