Berlin, Dec. 4.-Emperor William de-
cloed today that the time had come
tor MN to interfere personally with
the iuil weight of his authority in
order to put an end to the differences
between civil and military authorities
OF Alsace. His majesty this morning
summoned the governor general Of AL

Lieut-Gen. Berthold Won Deinling, to
report to him immediately at Donanes-

insured the passage Of the resolution
expressing non-conf1dence in the gov
ernment but made possible a serious

not unlikely that the imperial parlia-
ment will refuse to proceed with the
discussion Of the budget until It re-
ceives satisfactory guarantee that
there will be no repetition Of such in
cidents as those which have occurred
at Zabern.
Chancellor Addresses Parliament.
The imperial chancellor, aware that
even his own supporters are blaming
him for the absence Of any definite
DECLARATION az to how he IL going ta
deal with the authors OF the Incidents.
appeared in the imperial parliament at
the closing OF tOday's session. He was
evidently much exercised over the situ-
alton. Taking the floor at once he de-
ciared that Emperor William had ex-
pressed displeasure over the occur
rences at Zabern and had given the
general in command strict orders that
such violations Of the law as the clear
ing of the streets by the military and
the arrest Of civilians should not be
repeated.
Resignation 10 Threatened.
DR.. Won Bethmann-H Hollweg denied
the existence of a secret inner govern
ment in Alsace, which overruled the
decisions of the recognized authority
as had been reported-and said he
would resign instantly If such thing
were true.
1.-THE present moment is a serious
one," the chancellor said, mot because
Of the possibility Of my resignation but
because Of the danger that the Zabern
incident and the debates in the imper-
iaf parliament may lead to a perma-
nent breach between the army and the
people. The imperial chancellor and
the emperor are in thorough accord IN
the belief that a policy must be adopt
ed which will heal this strife"
May Withdraw Appropriation.
The imperial chancellor appeared to
be thoroughly angry and snapped out
his phrases in q sharp voice. showing
evident signs Of nervousness.
Since the emperor gave orders to
avoid any further conflicts there has
been no disorder at Zabern. The
civilian Inhabitants. however, show re-
sentiment at the recent incidents and
promise to withdraw the appropriation
Of $250,000 which they voted this sum-
mer for the construction OF new bar
racks and drill grounds.
