BEIIUN , July 15. ( New Vork Hernia Cable
Special to TUB BEE. I Truth to toll , nil
Interest in the military bill has petered out.
It docs not matter what this or that politi
cian or newspaper charges , or says about it ,
the much discussed military bill Is full
nccompll , and those who choose to prolong
the discussion nro merely wroggcrs , who uro
churning up the after details , such as where
is the money to pome from , etc. , In hopes of
obtaining concessions for their party. They
wish to wring all they can out of the govern
ment ) but will Inevitably take whatever they
can got. The bill will probably bo voted on
the 18th. The anti-Semites have proved be
yond mousuw , Bocckel considers , thnt they
Jnld the balance of power , and ho dreams
af nn alliance with the chanccllor-to
crush the Jews. News has Just reached
mo from n sure source that an understand
ing 1ms been reached between Dr. Miquol
nnJ Count von Caprivi in retard to the bud
get to cover the military bill's added ex
pense. The plan was submitted to the
* kaiser , who highly approved it and gave his
consent to Its introduction. Of course , the
bourse tax is included. Mlciuol will prob
ably receive the high honor of the nomina
tion to bo financial minister of the empire.
Miquol takes a holiday of six weeks , begin
ning In August , after which ho will sot to
work on the completion of his latest finan
cial scheme.
Caprivi looks forward to the autumn
o -eerfully , confident in the support of this
11 iitncial general , who has so often appeared
to him us a rival.
Fjr from the autumn maneuvers being
n > nndoncd , as reported two weeks ago , the
kaiser wishes them to be'of capital Im
portance. They will bo conducted abso
lutely on the scale of a small war , as real
istic us possible.
AbusingKnch Other 1'nbllcl- .
Between the color party and the "reptile"
prcss-n crafcd storm of personalities has
broken out. The amusing side of Itls that
the latter discovered that Llobcr-faow the
oontor loader , formerly lived from the sale
of a certain sanitary tea , which never did
any one good but himself , of which the sale
was finally forbidden as a fraud. In fact
the coarsest insults are finding their way
Into pridt on both sides , giving us little good ,
but amusing reading. In the meantime
Gcrmania solemnly , in the name of the
Almighty , confures the center party , to vote
againso the bill. So intensely earnest is
this entreaty it seems that enough of the
center might bo moved to cut off that party
from voting for the bill.
Koport has it that Count Herbert Bis
marck hns been trying to form a party
'round himself which could oppose the bill
unless the government first declared its
financial policy as regards the mcasuro. Tno
report is denied by the friends of Bismarck ,
who. they say , much more likely will join
the family at Bisscngcn and not vote at all.
Witklnc Up on Colonllnl Aflnlrs.
The kaiser , I understand , wishes much
more energy thrown into Germany's
colon Irl policy , which since the
days of Bismarck , has flagged con
siderably. The chancellor has received
his orders , and it Is probable the colonial
ofllco will have lively times during the au
tumn. It is said that with the kaiser the
bead of the colonial ofllco is much out of
favor at the present moment. The failure
of the Gorman colonial policy seems to data
since the tlmo of the mission of Wlssmnnno.
There has been the defeat in East Africa ,
and. the complications over the Camorcons ,
whilst the French have got a tooting in the
latter country. Dr. Xtnkgratt has already
accused the government of bait
ing _ him In a hole , and now
Baron Outdo Vockamor , at Munich , raises
his voice against Governor Xlmmcrcr , who ,
ho asserts , betrayed his brother-who was
massacroed at Dnlinga. With it ho brings
what seems to bo undeniable proof , and
further brings grave charges of disorganisa
tion' against the Colonial ofllco , ami , whilst
* reserving to himself thoright to raise the
question In IhoHelehstag , lins addressed himself -
self to the kaiser and the regent at Bavarhi ,
This is why trouble arises at the colonial
oftlco , and why the Inevitable sum of fiO.OOO- .
000 marks will bo askocl for In the Helchstng
to further the colonial policy. The kaiser , 1
hoar , is much Hiulsllc.il with the visit of the
czarowltch. The meeting was cordiality In
the extreme , with a grcutdoal of embracing.
The polk'o wcro on hand in largo force to see
that nothing unfortunate happened and
wore most careful of the Inspection of the
lines over which the trains passed , I hear
the subject of tholr conversation was the re-
rent disturbance In Paris ,
Holding Down Annexed I'rovlneos.
Bobol has tried tp raise up an outcry
against the action of the authorities in Al-
lace during the election , but on this point
the government refuses to budge , and once
more seems us though motdordro were thnt
Bovero repressive measures should bo again
enforced In the annexed provinces. To this
end there h s been rumors I'rinco Hohcn-
ioho would bo relieved of the governorship , .
but tills is not worthy of credence , seeing his'
grand services. Moreover , ho lias not
enougityioiioy to maintain a position worthy
his lineage- , whilst the return of his eon to
the Hoichstng us u supporter of the crown Is
n great victory and hns given special
pleasure at court as showing the provinces
are at last becoming Germanized. This
policy bccms to reign In the northern un-
noxccj provinces of Schlcswlg-Holstein ,
vrbero the conflicts between the people and
authorities , which latter have behaved very
harshly , have been frequent. Amongst other
tilings there hns been isuued au order pro
hibiting private persons from keeping car-
Icr pigeons , as * a danger in caio of war.
General Uunyon , the United States mluls-
ter , has been all week very busy at the lega
tion , having been called back on special
work. Ho left his family at Ems. They
will proceed from there to Hamburg , where
the minister , who will not become an am
bassador till autumn , will join thorn in ten
days if possible.

Soon after the bill was put on its final pas-
sugound after the speaking had commenced
It bccun.0 certain that the loaders of the
opposluion did not intend to let the measure
be udoptod in n perfunctory manner. The
atmosphere of the House felt too electric
for formalities. Sppjitfer after speaker paid
loss attention to atta'clcfng or supporting the
bill than to railing , ; vt/ their political op
ponents. The chancellor having secured for
the government a majority of eleven votes
yesterda'y on the second read tug of the bill ,
wasted no words in responding to the at
tacks made upon thtfuioasuro. Ho listened
to the discussion fofcan'hqur nnd a hulf und
nt 8:45 : disappeared from the house , knowing
thnt the bill was surp of adoption. It wcs
learned subsequently tliat he left the House
to see the emperor. The kaiser had become
impatient and had driven up to the minister's
private entrance , through which ho entered
the parliamentary bditdiiig- The chancel
lor was summoned to moot him. They wcro
closeted together in tlie chancellor's private
room for hulf an hour. ,
William Ws
It is understood that 'his majesty urged'
the chancellor to have the bill carried
through thohouso' at once as it was desired
to start tonight for Kiel , from which place
he intends to Bornholm , an Island belonging
to Dcnm urk. Ho did not desire to leave'
Berlin until ho know positively the result of
the vote on his pot measure.
The chancellor returned to the house and
spoke privately to.tho president and several
members with n view to expediting the close
of the discusslom The stream of talk was
still steadily flowing on , with no sign of a
check. The emperor , impatiently fuming
over the situation , Bummored Froll.orer von
Stum-Hulberg , who went to his majesty and
reported progress. Probably finding that ho
could get nothing but indefinite statements
from this source , the emperor loft the build
ing , but no division-was taken.
The opposition organs contend this even
ing that the majority of sixteen In favor of
the bill is not largo enough to cause the gov
ernment to exult , especially ns it wus won
by the chancellor giving pledges to the
agrarians nnd anti-Semites that will cer
tainly give him troubla to fulfill.
It Pleased the Rmperor.
The government , with reason , docs not
exult whllo Its opponents fall to conceal
their chagrin. Their disappointment was
plainly manifest throughout the day. The
emperor is delighted at the passage of the
bill and rumor has it ho will confer upon
Chancellor von Caprivi the Insignia or n
prince.
If the debate 'today had , been short and
decorous , ns was expected in ofllclal circles ,
the emperor might have appeared In the
house to close the session. Instead of closing
the house in person , ho gave the task to a
derson who read the Imperial address immed
iately after the passage of the bill. Ho also
read a speech from his majesty saying ho
was satisfied with the result of the delibera
tions , nnd had full oonlldcnco In thorcichstag
and that It would grant measures recognized
us necessary. "Events , " the speech contin
ued , "havo not ileoelvpil , the firm convictions
of the government tha the proposed increase
of the army docs not go bopond the absolute
requirements. They are all ho moro greater ,
in that they found thojconviction was spread

n leader of the Guclphs , mndo a strong
speech ngalnst the measure , basing his ob
jection on the theory thnt It would have the
same deplorable consequences that followed
the war of 1SCG between Hanover and Prus-
when the legitimist feeling of the agricul
tural sections of Germany hud been violated.
The government was doing the same thing
now. Such a bill as the present could not
and should not be passed at the demand of a
government that had not yet won the confi
" dence ot the , and which was weak oven In

It was only the Bourgcotso who entertained

1XOUBLLO JfKLL A.T IUE POST.
( Julueky Stumble I'revt-nteil the 1'nvorlto
from Wlmiinc ; nt i _ _ .
CHICAGO , July 15. Uudolph won the money
Yo Tnmbion the glory in today's Columbus
handicap , the greatest nll-egcd rnce ever
run in the west. Conceding seventeen
pounds to the winner , the Kendall stable
mare was but half a length behind at the
finish and her handling by Jordan was not the
best. A length and a half away caivo another
western horse , Il'iy S , a half length in front
of London. Illume was fifth , then followed
the two eastern horses , Diablo and Lamp
lighter. Michael came next nnd then Mor
ollo , the favorite , limping nnd carrying
an injured jockey. What figure the
great western racer might have cut
but for an accident at the post , will never bo
known. In some way the colt stumbled in a
false sturt and fell , receiving injuries and
laming the joca-ey so that ho asked Pottingill
to excuse him , but this was refused.
Morollo's shoulder was bruised and a big
lump was made on the sldo of his head.
Washington Purk contained 18,000 people
when the big race was called. The truck
was probably a second slow , but the world's
record foramilo and throj-sixtcenthwas
equalled in the Columbus handicap.
Odds sit the Onlset.
At the outset of the handicap Morollo was
marked 5 to 2 in most of the books , with 3 to
1 on one or two of the boards. A steady flow
of monny brought the price down to 3 to 5 at
the post. The Kendall stable pair , Yo Tam
blon nnd Maid Marian , and Uudolph wcro
second favorites , going to the post nt 5 to 1 ,
Lamplighter advanced from 5 to 1 to 7 to 1 ;
Diablo , the Brooklyn handicap winner ,
was 8 to 1. and Loudon nnd Santa
Anna 10 to 1. Lamplighter was Riven
u round of cheers when ho passed the stand
but the most of the applause was inclshed
on Morello. There was twenty minutes de
lay nt the post , Tnral spolllngonogood start.
Finally they were sent uway to one of the
prettiest starts over seen , Pnst the stand
Maid Marian , Uudolph , Wildwood and High
land were almost head and head , u length in
front of Idu , Pickwick und Morcllo , The
rest wcro in a bunch except
Poet Scout , who wns trailing.
Mull Murlan movad out of the
bunch and at the quarter was lending by u
length. Then Morello begun u light for the
lead , but did not catch up. Uudnlph was
running /easily / in third placo. Highland ,
Ida Pickwick und Yo Tainblen were next in
order , Lamplighter in the middle of the
bunch. Muid Marian had increased her
Inud ut the half two lengths. At the thrco-
qunrtcr polo she was leading Morollo by
only n head. At his hips was Uudolph und
still galloping without much apparent effort.
Then followed Yo Tu'mbicii. '
Morollo's Only KITort.
Turning Into the stretch Maid Marian
dropped back ana Morcllo led , but only for
un Instant. He made a wide run nnd Yo
Tambien took advantage of it. Ono well
straightened out , Morello ugnin moved in
front and at the eighth polo looked like a
winner , whllo the crowd cheered madly.
But bo had boon exerted to the utmost.
Irving now ftff the first time called on
Uudolph und the Aetna stable horse imme
diately wont Into a commanding load , Hay
S running with n great show of speed next
to the inner rail wus Rudolph's only dangerous - .
ous competitor for Yo Tamblon had been
kept back' for u final effort nnd Luplighter
nnd Diablo were losing ground. The crowd
wildly shouted : "Uudolph , UudolphI" Just
then Yo Titmbicn showed up on the outsido.
Irving saw the danger und to his cool head
and hard work may bo attributed Hudolph'a
victory. Uudolph Jut * won by a half length
with Yo Tumbion nearly two lengths before
Uay S. Loudon came fust at the finish und
got fourtn position. Aside from his injuries
Morello was not ridden with good judgment.
