Various European powers said his
imperial highness, ARE now sharpening
their diplomatic weapons in order to

The present Turkish government will
not last. Our party will come into power
next. As soon as this happens I shall
call upon the United States for help. My

@Tecral Cable 10 The Washington Herald.
Berlin. Dec. 13.-The growth of the agi-
tation for a universal strike" against
the church is causing serious concern
among German religious dignitaries.
The immediate aim Of the movement is
to encourage secessions, which have al
ready reached very considerable proper
tons from the established state church.
Seeing that persons who renounce their
religious affiliations escape paying the
church tax, 1t can be easily imagined that
the German economic soul jumps not
unreadily at the opportunity, and that
the number of Withdrawals is increasing
with quite alarming rapidity.
How seriously the situation is regarded
is shown by the authorities proposing to
raise the fee for registering withdrawal
