DEBATE ON KAISER RESUMED
REICHSTAG GALLERIES ARE
AGAIN CROWDED TODAY.
Baron Camp Undertakes to Ascribe
Emperor's Plight to His Gun
truthful Advisers"

BERLIN, November 1.-THE reichstag
was again crowded today when the de-
bate on the interview with Emperor Will
liam, published in the London Telegraph
October %. was resumed. The house lis
tened with undiminished attention while
the constitutionality of Emperor viii
liam's private interposition in the foreign
affairs of the nation was discussed. Chan
cellor Won Buelow az all the other min
listers, including Eron Won Kiderlen-
Waechter. the ting foreign minister,
were present. and the diplomatic and
other galleries were crowded.
Baron Camp, conservative, said he
thought that the anger and bitterness
shown yesterday by Herr Liebermann
Won Sconenberg. the agrarian and anti
Semitic, was no way to treat such sor-
towful subject. 1t was tragic. h esaid,
that a sovereign with so many admirable
qualities should find himself in such a
plight. His majesty's trouble ought
rather to be ascribed to his responsible
advisers, who, since the time of Bis
marck. never have been able to tell his
majesty the truth.
"Caprivi was soldier who always de-
fined his duty as merely to obey the
Prince of Hohenlohe," Baron Camp con-
tinued. Valuable as he was to the en-
pire, he never obtained a strong hold over
the emperor. Chancellor Won Buelow has
at times exerted considerable influence
over his majesty. but we would like to
know the basis of the conviction that the
emperor will be more reserved in the
future than in the past"
The speaker was here interrupted by
derisive cries from the socialists.
Baron Camp was followed by several
other members Of the reichstag, who re-
viewed the acts of the emperor and COM
planned sharply of the chancellors course
in not resisting imperial excursions be-
yond the constitutional frontiers.
Carl Schrader radical. said Emperor
William should be in Berlin attending to
affairs of state rather than at Friedrichs-
hafen watching the ascension of the Zep-
pelin airship.
OSwell Zimmerman, anti-Semite, de-
clared that Emperor William and Prince
Won Buelow often follow different foreign
policies and that other governments never
knew what was going to happen.
Oskar Won Norman, extreme conserva-
tive, said that his wing of the conserva-
tives was satisfied with the explanations
given by Prince Won Buelow.
Konrad Haussmann, Bavarian radical,
throughout the entire incident of the Tele-
graph interview.
The reichstag adjourned this afternoon
without having concluded the debate on
the interpretations concerning the i'm
perial interview.
A rumor spread early in the day that
the chancellor was about to announce
some form of constitutional guarantee for
checking the kaiser in the future, but he
gave no sign. The only official inter
position in the debate was that of the
new deputy and foreign secretary. Kin
enWaechter. who aroused ironical
laughter from all parts of the chamber
by a feeble attempt to exonerate the for
eign Office from responsibility for the
famous interview.
One of the most astonishing features of
the two days debate was the fact that
there was not a single call for order, al
though things were said of the kaiser that
on other occasions would have been re-
garded as lese majeste.
