helm accepted the proposals Of Chan
celior Won Buelov in the interview
held here today, concerning the future
foreign policy of Germany, and the
controversy which began two weeks
ago In at an end.
Won Buelow will continue to act as
prime minister and Emperor Wilhelm
will show more pacific attitude to
his European neighbors.
The backing down of the Mailed
Fist so easily came as a surprise. The
result of the interview, however, is
being greeted throughout Europe with
satisfaction. The meeting occupied
three quarters of an hour.
This meeting which was watched by
the entire German people, is an out
come of the interview in the London
Telegraph, In which the Emperor was
credited with very frank statement
Of the world policy of the German en-
pire The publication was followed by
furious outbreak in Germany against
his majesty He was most severely
criticised in the German press and in
the Reichstag for his indiscretion.

gazette of the empire, will publish to-
night with the sanction of the Emperor
the following statement:
I'm the course of the audience
granted today by the Emperor to Chan
celor Won Buelow the chancellor de-
scribed to the Emperor the mood of
the nation and explained his position
with reference to the debate in the
Reichstag Of last Tuesday. The EN-
'peror listened to these explanations
with great earnestness, and expressed
his will as follows:
"Heedless OF the obvious Incorrect
.exaggerations, his majesty considered
shis princnpal aim to be to secure the
continuance of the imperial policies
under the safeguard of constitutional
responsibilities; he approved the cham
scellor's address in the Reichstag and
assured the prince of his continued con-
hdence.'"
The chancellor appeared pale from
his recent indisposition. Replying to
an acquaintance at the railroad station,
who assured him that the entire Ger
man nation accompanied him in spirit
on the journey, Prince Won Buelow said
in a grave voice:
IT have no other idea than to do my
duty toward the German people," The
friend then expressed the hope that
the people soon would be in position
to shout; Bravo, Buelow." To this
remark Chancellor Won Buelow an
swered smilingly: zone cannot tell how
things will turn out"

ENTERS STRONG DENIAL
Sheriff Harrigan Deprecates
Stories and Commends the
Department.

Reports that there was to be a whole
sale shake-up in the police department,
which caused a sensation in the city
today, are now denied.
The reports circulated were that all
of the captains were to be transferred,
that Captain Carroll was to be changed
from TIE detective bureau to the First
Precinct, and that Captain Ryan was
to be sent from the First to the Sixth
Precinct. This latter was taken as a
most important shift because Ryan's S
name had been mentioned in connec-
tion with new chief of police.
Lyman e. Kane. president Of the Po-

members Of the detective bureau for the
dissension existing there, said:
"There Is absolutely no truth In the

time for such changes as are described
