Prince Won Buelow's Position, Through Recent Dissertation of His Master, Almost
 Untenable.
RADICALS DEMAND CHANGE
Want Minister Not Responsible to Emperor Alone Amazement, Mockery and Regret Greet
 Explanation.

Berlin, Nov. 1. Chancellor von Buelow's position appears to be al- most untenable, Far and wide throughout the empire the newspa- pers Of all parties discuss with vary ing degrees of mockery amazement and regret the governments explana- ton of how what purported to be enormously important utteranees of the emperor affecting three great powers, passed through the hands of the chancellor and long line of for elgn office officials without seemingly having been considered by any of them or ever read by most of those responsible for the delicate foreign re- lations
 The emperor fully condones Prince von Bueows part in the affair, but the ehancellor's authority and pres tige with the country have been so shaken that he may again ask the em- peror to relieve him.
 All the radical, liberal and social ist journals utilize the event to urge upon the country demand for a ministry responsible to the parliament and the people, instead of the contin- uance of ministerial responsibility to the crown alone.
 In addition to the semi-offlcial &C., counts already published, 1t Is learn ed that the emperor handed the man uscript of the interview which appear cd in the London Daily Telegraph and the authorship of which Is still unG/s- closed, to Baron von Jenisch, who was attached to his entourage while the emperor was absent from the capital short time ago, as the representa- tive of the foreign office. with the direction to send 1t to Prince von Buelow.
 The chancellor described the note from yon Penisch, which accompan- fed the manuscript. as referring to the enclosure as an article. not as an in- terview, so that the chancellor did not consider 1t necessary to give 1t nls personal attention. The manuscript consisted of a number of small hmsy- like sheets, the handwriting being diff ficult 10 decipher, and the chancellor referred 1t to Herr von Mueller, the minister al The Hague, who was act ing as the chancellor's private secre- tary.
 The latter, In his turn and without examining the document, sent it to the foreign office, where in the absence of Herr von Schoen, the secretary for for. eign affairs. 1t was read by subordinat, officials who did not attach importance to it's contents. and returned through the proper channels without further 1 examination unti! transmitted by on, of tho imperial secretaries 10 England | where, as the Taglche Rundschau, on, ! Of the newspapers that is read in court aristocratIc and military circles, de. ] scribed it, ''it emerged gally into thu world, infuriating the French. Rus. sians, Dutch and Japanese, chilling the 1 British exciting bitterness and nerv ous irritation on the part of our owr people and undermined our neighbors belief In our reliability"
 The whole subect is likely to com, up for debate in the Reichstag whici will reassemble on Wednesday.
 London, Nov. 2.-rhe London morn Ing papers comment ironically upon
 what they describe as fin generou semi official explanations" from Berlil concerning the emperors published in tcrview, and consider that the effec of these will be partly to lncreas dis(rust of the German foreign ofn and ifs methods, and probably lead L
 still greater ill-feellng between Grea Britain and Germany
 The Daily Telegraph gives no furthe
 explanation of the affair, which lt
 Berlin correspondent declares involve Germany in the gravest domestic cri sis she has experienced since the dis mlssal of Bismarck.
 Sidney Whitman the well know
 English publlcst, who, 1t has been be lleved in certain quarters, was the au thor of the article, denies any con nection with 1t.
