B'HHMN , Dec. 10. On the eve of tbo first
reading f the army bill , Chancellor von
Caprlvl gave n parliamentary dinner that
was characterized by bringing together
members of all parties mid press representa
tives of all shades , except socialistic , who
mingled witli ministers , members of the
Btmdcsrath and high state officials. It was
a trolley crowd. For the llrst tlmo leading
journalists were invited ut such a banquet.
Such various organs as the North German
Gazette , the Vossichc.eltuug , the Tagc-
blatt , the Post , the I ondou Times , the Tele
graph and the Vienna Neuo frelo Presse ,
sent their representatives , all of whom re
ceived a cordial greeting from the chancellor.
It was u memorable recognition of the in
fluence of the press , and marked an epoch
in the life of German journalism.
The Ahlwardt trial was the subject of
much conversation and Advocate Munkcl ,
Ilerr Loewe's counsel , had to submit to much
banter.
f
AVhllo the dinner was proceeding the
socialists wore holding meetings in every
electoral district in Berlin , protesting against
the army bill. Aggressive orations were
delivered which evoked frequent speeches
from the politicians present. A new feature
of the meetings was the large attendance ol
women , who by their festive enthusiast !
gave moro trouble to the police than thcii
socialist brothers dare to cause.
Doliato on the Army Hill.
When the debate on the army bill opened
in the Heiehstag today the house was
crowded and the galleries were full of
A-isltors. Tho. tenor of the speeches from all
sides disclosed no uncompromising hostility
to the measure. Major von Iloinogin-
Hucno , a member of the centre party
announced that the centrists were willing
Ho concede the reduction of a year in the
term of service , but wore not prepared to in
crease the strength of the standing army.
His remarks seemed to indicate downright
opposition to the bill , but ho altered his
tone as ho proceeded and admitted that the
nieasuro would bo hailed by the country as
adding to the defensive strength of the em
pire and probably as leading to au allevia
tion of the economic situation. IIo concluded
by'expressing the hope that the centre party
would arrive ut an entente with the gov
ernment.
Ilerr Hichter said that the ITroisinnigo
party would grant whatever funds wcro nec
essary for the introduction of a system of
two years service , but added that the chan
cellor would have to apply to a moro com
placent Ueicbstag than the present ono to
obtain demands beyond that. IIo contended
that the bill would raise tbo extraordinary
budget to the extent of iiOO,000,000 marks. The
two years service system , ho said , was de
sirable , but to increase the number at such
a cost was unnecessary.
C'uprlvl Grows Suroustlc.
The chancellor's response to tbo speeches
against the bill was mainly directed at Hcrr
Hlchtcr , and his language was sarcastic.
He styled Hcrr Uichter an able political
statistician , but said he was scarcely in a
position to offer n reliable opinion on the de
tails of a military system. On this subject
authorities In the highest military circles
must have the most weight. "So convinced
ami , " said the chancellor , "of the necessity
of the bill for the continued existence of
Germany that if the Heiehstag wished to
throw upon mo its own resiwnslbility , I
would tranquilly accept It. "
This statement was greeted with cheers.
Continuing , the chancellor said that by the
provision of the bill 00,000 young men would
bo yearly added to the army , so that In a few
years -150,000 moro men would bo ready to
take the Held against a hostile army. This
statement brought cheers. The chancellor
appealed to the house not to throw the coun
try Into confusion by rejecting the nieasuro.
AVIll Support the Hill Conditionally.
Ilerr Von Manteaffol next spoke In behalf
of the coiiForv.itIves. Ho said that his party
would vote for the bill only If it was proved
that the quality of the army would not suffer
through the proiwsed increase In its numbers
and its organization.
The general opinion in the lobby after the
house adjourned was that the bill would
pass Its llrst reading by a good majority.
Before the debate of tko bill is resumed on
Monday thu Brussels monetary conference
and the army rifles will form the subjects of
interpellations ,
The committee of the lower house of the
Prussian Diet , appointed to consider Min
ister Mlqucl's financial reforms , has made u
radical u He rat ion in the property tax pro
vision of the bill by rejecting the clause
compelling every taxpayer to declare the
whole value of his property. Herr Mlqucl'a
illncHS and his consequent absence from the
meetings of tbo committee have weakened
the support of his proposals.
Antl-Somltl m Griming ,
The resurgence of the JudenhoUo Is not
limited to the German conservatives. Something
.
thing like popular demonstrations of anti-
Semitism have occurred In several counties
where the Freislnnlgo party is strong. Twice
this week eonsldN.'ublo crowds have passed
along 1'Medrlchsstrasso crying , "Down
with the Jews , "
Leading conservatives and the moderates. .
Hen ; Hellgorf and Count Douglas are con
jldciit that the emperor is ashamed oftht
Jew baiting done by the party , and thoj
liaA'o ; protested against admitting a Jouisli
elauifo In thp party program ,
Thu nntl-Semotlo propaganda in Austria
has received energy by the action of Hit
German conservatives , A mass meeting
Aviis ro'cntly held In the Vienna town 1ml
at which wcro. 2,000 working people , a large
number of whom wcro women , Prince Llch
tcustclu , uuild the plaudlU of the crowd , ad
vised them to boycott Jewish tradesmen.
Coming from a man of his importance the
advlco is likely to have a bad effect.

Bnussii,9 : , Dec. 10. At today's meeting
of the committee of the international mono-
ary conference , Tietjcn's , Ilouldsworth'd
and Allard's plans were debated , but the
committee adjourned without reaching any
decision regarding cither , Although the hi-
inetalltst delegates feel that the position is
critical they are hopeful that the conference
will not adjourn without adopting a resolu
tion recommending that the various govern
ments interested adopt a temporary modus

catastrophe.
-Before the conference proper , M. Tirard
of the French delegation explained the posi
tion of Franco in regard to bimetallism. IIo
said that , under the present circumstances ,
there was no chance to substitute bimetallism
for mono-motullism. There was nothing
disquieting in the position of France or other
Latin countries or that could open the mints
for the coinage of silver so long as Great
Britain , Germany and Austria hold aloof.
Each country'had a remedy in its own hands ,
niul that was by increasing the coinage ol
silver. If every country increased the coinage -
ago of silver to 20 francs per capita , which
was less than half of France's total , the
amount of silver in circulation would bo
enormously increased.

BEIIM.V , Dec. 10. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to Tun Bui : . ] The military
bill seems likely to bo defeated. The
Heiehstag was crowded today when Carl
Hueno , amid high strung excitement , made
the statement in the center that It was not
inclined support the army bill In Its present
shape. The centci-i party with the frcisin-
nlge , volkspartes and social democrats con
trol two-thirds of the houso. All these
parties are entirely against the
bill. This 'seems to show that Caprlvl
is entirely foiled in his endeavor re
lated In the Herald to throw dust in the
eyes of the center by hinting his
permission to the return of the Jesuits as n
return for their support.
In view of the probable failure of the bill I
am able to tell the Herald on good authority
that in that event Caprivi told a friend the
kaiser would not desert him , but would still
keep him in power.
Developments confirm what the Herald's
warning in the past have said all along.
Monday next an interpellation will bo in-
introduced by the national liberal party re
specting the report spread abroad about the
defectivcness of the Prussian guns. This
of course refers to the Herald's dispatcncs.
Caprivi will reply and will naturally deny
the whole matter , but the debate w.ill be in
teresting and probably exciting.
Gnsslp of Court : > lll Town.
I hear that General von Hahnke , chief of
the military staff of the kaiser , will be
lominatcd as commandant of Berlin at New
Years in place of Count Seheffcn. For ti
eng while von Hahnko has aspired to the
lost , which ho will now receive if the kaiser
remains of the same mind. His successor
will bo Baron von Lippe. Hahnko is one of
, ho most devoted followers Of Caprivi.
The powerful center party is displaying a
; oed deal of activity. It has decided on
several interpellations to the chancellor's
speech in order to please the Roman Catho-
io electors , who are getting' weary at
.liclr inaction. Among other explanations
, hcy will ask about the delayed measure
tgalnst ambulating merchantstho reorguniza-
; ion of the status of the working classes , and
the creation iof corporations.
Notwithstanding reports to the qpntrary ,
the czar has not written a letter to the
kaiser , thanking him for the appointment of
von Voider.

New YOIIK , Dec , 10. Captain John E.
Yatcs of the three-masted schooner Willie
Reed , which arrived today after an exciting
voyage , during which two sailors were shot
for mutiny said ; "ThoVlllio \ Heed left

Japan. 1 found It Impossible to got a crow
that I desired and so had to take any men I
i could get , The crew was composed of Nor-
Everything worked smoothly for
some time , then the men growled
about the food. Later I dls-
"
covered that they wpro stealing food. My
second mate was John Turner , Ho aided
the men in the robbery of the chip's Btorago
and encouraged their misdemeanors.
Shortly before reaching Kobe , Japan , on
March 10 , when In the strolls of Sunda , u
number of Malay Indians brought some
whisky on board , which tl oy gave to the
crow , who got drunk and refused to obey
orders. About eight men seemed to be act
ually mutinous. Ono of them Alfred Pare , I
considered to bo the ringleader , and thought
it tlmo to take some action , I ordered him
placed in Irons. Some of the men who wore
Btlll faithful carried out my orders. Pare
and companions wcro too drunlc.to offer much
resistance. The next day all of his compan
ions caino to mo and demanded Paro's release -
lease ; they refused to work unless their de
mands were acceded to. I was surrounded
by n pang of dcsporatcincn. Their conduct
was mutinous but theranroro no war vessels
or iKillco about fromnyhom I could got help.
I therefore released , .tlio man , and shortly
after I heard a prosit nolso on deck. I
opened the door of mycabln and looked out.
I siw Second Mate Turner with the turbu
lent part of ho crew surrounding him.
Some of them' wcro shaking their lists at
the man , 1 heard Piu-o say to Tumor : 'You
are as big n thief ns us.1 At the same tlmo
Pare made a ) ump for the second mate.
Turner pulled out his pistol and fired.
The llrst shot stopped Pare. Turner
fired at another of the crew , named Pearson.
Then the mutineers scattered nnd lied to the
forecastle. They had no arms and wcro
cowed. Until wo reached Kobe I kept con
stant watch , for 1 was afraid the mutineers
would do something desperate , especially as
the man Turner was as great n scamp ns any
of them. However , wo reached ICobo with
out any further outbreak _ and -I then sum
moned United States Consul Suottls. IIo
investigated the case and put all of the muti
neers In Jail. " -

LOXDOX , Dec. 10. [ New York Herald
table Special to THE BKB. ] It was con-
idcntly anticipated by many that when
ohn Morley went to Newcastle to address
is constituents ho would take the oppor-
.unity of telling us something about the
irogrcss that is being made with the now
ionic rule bill. As ho said , ho posted over
11 nd and ocean , through frost and fog and
now. He delivered his message , andiwc are
ust as wise as wo wcro before. The great
.ecret . remains as dark as ever. Wo are
itly informed that the government 1ms gone
i long way to meet the olrish demands , and
hat Morley sees no reason to despair.
There is nothing very enthusiastic about
.his . tone. It helps to confirm the belief
.hat great divisions exist in the cabinet on
he subject , but the objections are these for
ivhich Gladstone will yield nothing.
I am told that the bill is likely to bo of im
mense dimensions , and that in no material
i-cspcct will it fall short of the concessions
uado in "SO. There is to bo no compromise
to satisfy English opinion. If the measure
satisfies the Irish , Gladstone will consider
that ho has effected his settlement. Sooner
or later England will bo obliged to accept it
Such is the calculation and Gladstone has no
nisgivings about its accuracy. So many
other pressing questions are arising that
people may bo disposed to agree to almost
[ inything to get Ireland out of the way.
Dividing Up tli.'Soil.
A great scramble for English land Js
rapidly approaching. Half the landlords arc
ruined , and the other half must bo driven off.
They are but cumbercrs of the ground.
Tliis is the ominous cry which has made itself
icard , oven in the agricultural conference. It
s morcjittraetivo to the masses than the
demand for protection , To get your neigh-
bo'rs Held for nothing is better than a duty
on'corn. Satisfy thls'fomi of land hunger ,
and you may do what you like with Ireland.
These are the sentiments of the laborers , and
they are real masters of the situation bore
Labor is the great power which Gladstone
can call to his assistance at any moment.
I asked n friend of his the other day how
the old man was as regards health.
'Never better , " was the reply. "Ho is
early at church evcrymorning , rain or shine ,
and docs a day's work afterwards that
would tire out thrco or four ordinary men.
Ho lingers long in the evening over his books
and papers. Hcally , there Is no reason why
he should no bo good for another ten years
or so. " '
Gladstone's nrcnt Grit.
Sir Andrew Clark says there is not an
unsound spot in him. Of course n severe
attack of bronchitis or something might
carry him off , but .you cannot llnd anything
wrong about him , IIo is now tridy
prodigy. During the last election 1 asked n
workingman on which side he intended to
vote ,
"Oh , liberals , " ho answered.
"Why ? "
"Because of old Gladstone. Look how ho
gocsabout everywhere. "
Ho bangs the whole lot because the old
man can go about everywhere. It seems a
strange reason for making him prime min
istcr , but it excites the admiration of the
populace , they like the grit that is needed to
drive through public streets bareheaded in
the rain , to speak an hour or moro without
notes , to dart about like a bird from place to
place. Surely this Is equal to being a whole
lot , and entitles n man to direct the destinies
of England. It will go a good long way to
ward enabling Gladstone to sit light.

ICopiirlulitcil 1802 by James Gordon Hewlett. ]
LONDON , Dec. 10 , [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to Tin : BIE. : ] Thcro is
general feeling here , especially among the
statesmen nnd lawyers , that Secretary As
qulth should not go out of his way to rclcusi
Mrs , Mnybrlck just to oblige the Unitei
States government. The only oxplatmtioi
for this la that they feel that England 1ms
not been treated cavalierly In many ways by
the United States. Ono politician to whom
I spoke today pointed out that at heart the
Englishmen are not pleased with the manner
in which the British lion's tail was twisted
during the recent presidential campaign ,
'England , " ho said , "was constantly
held up to ridlculo and contempt to plcaso the
Irish , yet your people ask us to release
legally committed convicts fornootherreason
than that they are Americans. "
The question Is ono of dealing with crim
inals only , but most people prefer to look at
it as a political ono. In the meantime Lord
Hosebery has been asked to Intercede for
Mrs. Maybriek , but it will require all the
eloquence at the command of Secretary
"White to win him over , for ho has already
shown that ho regards Mrs. Maybrlck's
imprisonment as perfectly Just.
The reports of her Illness are coming in
thicker and faster , and each succeeding bul
letin places her nearer death's door , I fancy
I can see the hand of Baroness Uoqucs in
all this. Asqulth is Investigating the case ,
and if the convict Is really as bud off us Is
reported from outsldo the prison walls ,
she will probably bo released. Meanwhile
reports that she will not recover require
confirmation ,

In the midst of cry for work raised by the

announcement that 2,000 Russian Jews are

there Is no outlet for them In America , they

ragged , unkempt throng of paupers who are
making day and night hideous on Tower

Now comes this solid phalanx of Husslans
from the Black sea to add to the misery of
the unfortunates. Politicians are becoming
alarmed at the situation. They know that
something must bo done , and all ngrco
that the only logical cimclusion is that
which has been arrived at. by the United
States government , the prompt restriction of
emigration and the closing of American ports
to the undesirable foreigners has served to
widen and make more attractive the road to
London. Once hero the foreigner becomes
an immediate charge upon the community ,
for there is nothing for him to do save to
shout himself hoarse and hungry'on Tower

LONDON , Dec. 10. The Standard's Vienna
correspondent says : "Tho probable failure
of the monetary conference is so discounted
hero that its failure will. , make no Impres
sion. The principal Austro'Hungarian pa
pers ridicujp the prophecies of terrible con
sequences , contending that.any such action ,
as is foreshadowed In' President Harrison's
message , would bo a breach of faith toward
creditors 'which public opinion in America
would not permit. Neither democrats nor
republicans , it is said , dare repeal the -Win
dom act for fear of an unparalleled commer
cial crisis. Meantime the removal of the
hope of an international agreement for many
years to come will exercise a healthy influ
ence in cheeking the output of silver and the
price will gradually find its level without
harming anybody but the American silver
kings. Practical experience in the trans
formation of silver currency Into gold cur
rency has resulted in converting passionate
blmotnlllsts to the view that the rchabllita
tion of silver would fall to remove the root
causes of the agricultural depression. "

S ] > ocinl to Tun Br.r. . [ 1 had rensou last week
to cable you about the consequences of null-
Scmlttsm , which Is always one of the gravest
questions in Kin-olio , In Berlin the trial of
Hector Ahlwardt will give rise to u congress
of conservatives which may bring about tho'
death of the 1'russlan consorriittvo party.
Europe learns with astonishment of thoan-
nounoi'ineut of the coalition of the Gorman
conservatives , anarchists and anti-Somites ,
which will Infallibly lead to an agrarian
revolution. The .Tows am not sufilelcntly
numerous to furnish agitators. The thrco
parties arc enough to canso anxiety.
Before two years the agitation will have
turned ngalnstcapitil , : without distinction of
religion , just as in France , where the feeling
of governmental responsibility Is becoming
less day by day. The resignation of the
proeurour generate , M. Qiiosnay de Beauro-
paire , was given under solemn circumstances
that clearly illustrate the situation.
No r.oiiRcr Hun Stability.
People who think are desirous of seeing
moro responsibility thrown 'upon ' the gov
ernment. It is painful to see men Hlco M.
Hibot and M. Bourgeois becoming slaves to
all the demands of the extreme parties.
The exhumation of the body of the late
Baron do Heinach. refused at llrst , was
Dually granted. This concession was against
ill right and is a serious matter. The gov
ernment knows no longer how to govern ,
he deputies how to vote , the electors what
to believe.
The coming man appears to bo M. Bour
geois , ex-minister of public affairs and now
ninister of justice. Ho is u radical , just as
.bo Chamber wishes , and is energetic as the
bourgeois wishes. But bow long will It
last ? If ho becomes too much of a radical. he
, vill offend the bourgeois ; if ho becomes to
mueh-of - bourgeois ho' will lese the support
of the radicals. The positional each one la
embarrassing and the ge'neral .situation . is
equally so.
One I.lttlo Glciun of Hope.
Fortunately , foreign affairs are not as bad
iis they might bo. M. Hlbot took the port
folio of the foreign ofilco in order to appease
the anxieties of the outsiders , and not to in
crease the number of people au courant with
bo negotiations of Kussin. The Carmaux
strikes have not made a bad impression upon
the czar , and the treaty is already signed.
The Panama scandals have the ef
fect of retarding its liual execu
tion. Still the presence of MM.
Kibot and Do Froyemct In the cabinet
serves as : i guaranty to Hussla. Nothing ia
concluded , but unhappily the trutlfbnnnot bo
told from the tribune of the Chamber. The
ministry might bo overthrown moro quickly
than is creditable. Every parliamentarian
believes that it cannot last after January 15.
Under such conditions , with the Panama dis
grace overhanging , all useful political action
is impossible.
It is astonishing how F.ranco can stand
such a trial. But it is u trial which will pass
away.
The coflln containing the remains of the
late Baron de Hcinach was opened today and
