cratic and diplomatic officials are toll
erably well informed as TO the mon
arch's personal view on the even-s
which have been so greatly agitating
the country.
The prevailing feeling among the
members of the emperor's suite is one of
resentment at the popular outbursr

affirmed that pledge to Chancellor Won

A number of members of TIE reichstag
today expressed their opinions on the
emperor's pledge. Herr Mabias Erzber-
ger, leader of the more liberal section
of the clerical party, said:

New Law Demanded.
Heinrich Ernest Mueller, leader of the
moderate radicals. said:
our point OF view is that the declara-
ton does not give a guarantee for the
near future that the so-called personal
element In politics will be suppressed. The

persons who. while declaring friendship
for Germany, really only do us harm,
because they interpret the emperor's views
and intentions in their own way"
