Von Buclow's position as Imperial chan
cellor will bo besot with extreme dlfllcul
tlea and will require perhaps moro dip
lomatic skill than statesmanship. Not
alono will his majesty want to bo his own
chancellor and exercise tho right of cease
less Interference, even In tho most doli
cato matters, but there nre also great par
liamentary difficulties to overcome. The
agrarians, from tho outset, regard Von
lluolow suspiciously, owing to his record
hitherto aa desirous to maintain friendly
rolatlons not only with Russia, but with tho
United States and Oroat Britain, thus op
posing tho tariff war, which tho agrarians
dealt o.
Negotiations now under way will tax Von
lluolow to tho utmost. Von lluclow, Uko
lllsmurck, will only bo ulle to mako pol
itics "von full-zu fall," that la, from caso

thief. Ho had dined alone at a good but
unpretentious restaurant. After King
Gcorgo had settled his bill tho waiter
helped him on with his overcoat, handing
him a tightly-folded umbrella, which tho
king absontmlndedly placed undor his arm,
not remembering that ho had no umbrella
when ho entered tho place. The owuer of
tho umbrella only discovered his loss when
ho himself was leaving a half hour later.
Tho proprietor of tho restaurant paid
for tho lost nrtlcle. Nevertheless, two
hours afterward when tho man, walking
tin boulevards, chanced to meet the king
with the umbrella still under his arm, he
assaulted him with great fury, calling him
harsh names. A great gathering Imme
diately formed. The king, confused, looked
really guilty, despite his apologies and
embarrassed protests. A policeman In
vited both contenders to como to tho sta
tion, when suddenly two men dashed
through the crowd and whispered magic
ally quieting words to the olllcer and the
owner of the umbrella, and then made a
passago for tho king, who got away be
fore anybody else could learn his Identity.
When King George's assailant learned

LONDON, Oct. 20. "I bolteve," said
Emperor William recently, "that It Is to
Uermany'a advantage for1 England to have
the. Uocr republics,"
Tho conipleto accuracy of this com
plete quotation, which gained strength
from tho fact that 1l was not said with
nuy Idea ot repetition or for tho sake ot
mollifying soma Ilrltlsh diplomat, la re
liably vouched for. Tho remark was made
1ii tho courau of a conversation between
th emperor and ono of tho leading Ger
mans, whoso advice In matters of com
mercial policy hla majesty greatly relies
upon, and who, by tho way, U not a lover
of Great llrltnlu nnd its works. Through
a recent visit ot an Individual to England
tlu Associated Picbs secured knowledge
of what may bo fairly descrlbod as the
ctuperor'a candid opinion ot tho South
African matter.
For sevcral'-daya tho English and con
tinental papers have contained hints, and
even assertions, that Russia, Franco and
Germany arju contemplating Joint action
with tho Idea of coorclng Great Urltaln
Into granting at least a degree of Inde
pendence to tho Iloers. Several corre
spondents havo adducod tho most circum
stantial details to provo the existence of
this undercurrent of projected diplomacy
nUon and while
...... ......i LttA . .
tho English public has gr'own lnOrod to In
terventlon rumors, this latest revival has
secured no small degree of crcdonce and
has oven affected tho markets. Whethor
Russia and Franco ever contemplated such
action Is not known, but tho circumstances
under which Emperor William spoke ef
fectually and definitely disposes of all
possibility of any European Intervention,
for It is acknowledged on all stdea that
Russia and Franco would not act without
Germany.
There la even further significance In hla
majesty's pronouncement, for, sinco he
caCo the Htatomc&t referred to bis Inter
viewer has conferred with the lloer dole
gates. This occurred only a few; days ago
and It can bo Inferred that Dr. Leyds, tho
diplomatic agent of tho Transvaal, was In
formed that It would bo hopeless to ex
pect any aid from Emperor William to
ward the Intervention campaign planned
to synchronlzo with Mr. Krugor's arrival
In Europe.
Would right I'.iiropp FlrHt
Tho Ilrltlsh Foreign ofllco professes
Ignoranco of any secret Intentions on the
part of the continental powers In regard to
a settlement of the trouble In South Africa,
and, Indeed, appears genuinely to dlsbellovo
tho possibility ot any such thing happening.
How It would meet such an ovontuallty,
however, can bo Judged from an expression
used by an oKlclal who Is regarded as being
more in Lord Salisbury's conlidcnco than
any other man, and who said to a rep
rosentativo of the Associated Press:
"Interference mooted again? Why, we
would fight all Europe first."
To what extent Great Urltaln may be In
debted to Emperor William for rendering
such a serious alternative unnecessary can
only bo surmised, but It is not doubted
hero that the antt-Brltlsh feeling entertained
by the people ot France and Russia dally
gains virulenco and that It Is not likely
to bo decreased by the presence of ex-Prcsl
dent Kruger In Europe. The Associated
Press further learns his majesty's convlo
tlon that It would be to Germany's ad
vantago to have tho British control the Boor
republics sprang, apparently, not from any
Idea of gaining concessions or from a gen
eral policy of friendship, but from a distinct
Idea that Germany s commerce- would be
immediately boncQted thereby and that tho
adjacent German territory would be lm
proved, becauso he Implicitly believes the
German manufacturers and German ship'
ping Interests can cut the ground from under
their BrltUh rivals, even In tho lAttor's

The queen met tho duke for tho first

courtesy, but without tho obsequiousness
she was accustomed to at the hands ot the

Ho grndually molted, partly through paren

that he would accept uu offer of marriage
