111:111.1Oct. : . 0. Emperor William's
reception at Vienna. has sent a
thrill of gratification through the empire.
The enthusiasm shown and the scenes nt the
banquet given to his majesty have been of
immense value in displaying the emperor's
latent qualities. His social tact nnd personal
geniality have hitherto been known only In
limited circles. The current notions invest
ing him with a e-old , unsympathetic person
ality have been corrected by the smiling
scienity with which ho passed through the
tiring ceremonies associated with his recep
tion. Emperor William has passed through
the ordeal of Australian society in triumph ,
acquiring new characters as n man of cordial
as well as kingly presence.
Ofllclal papers here and at Vienna com
incut upon the emperor's speeches as assurances -
ances that the German and Austrian armies
arc practically united and ready for action
against a common enemy. Any remotest
suspicion of the Emperor William's inclining
towards the c/nr has been dispell'ul. On the
contrary , several Incidents have occurree !
which impel the conviction that decisive uc
tion for the testing of the strength of the al
llancc will not bo delayed. Emperor Will
lam will remain In Vienna until Wednesday
when hr will start for Italy.
t The Interview of Cardinal Galim
bcrtl , papal nuncio at Vienna
with his majesty on Thursday
lasted only ten minutes. The cardinal , it i !
said , has freely stated that the cinpcrior
after expressing the hope that nothing woul *
occur during his visit to Rome to wound tin
susceptibilities of the pope , declines to ells
CUHS any question pending between tin
Vatican and Germany. Advises from Komi
announce that the Vatican Is genuinely satis
lied with the programme arranged. Empero
William will call upon the pope at the vati
can before going to the qulrinal. Gainlu ;
this point has gladdened the ofllclals nt tin
Vatican.
The Italian police , assisted by the Bcrlii
ofllccrs , nro taking precautions to proven
nn attempt upon the emperor's life in con
sequence of the warnings received by them
The German and Italian anarchists meai
mischief. Letters from Zurich which hav
been Intercepted refer to some plot agains
his majesty , and give rise to a belief that h
will bo attacked during his tour of Italy.
A Hamburg dispatch announces that n
definite measure has yet been taken to prose
cute Prof. Gcffcken. It Is not true that th
authorities have seen a written permit froi
the late emperor Frederick authorizin
Geffckcn to publish the diary. The inquir
resulted In establishing the fact that Gcffckc
never got copy from Frederick. It is IK
known when he obtained the extracts. A
the Inquiry narrows the circle of possibl
sources of betrayal of the diary , the Bii
marckian papers become more bitter towari
the ex-empress.
The North German Gazette , referring 1
the report that the English admiral , Fa !
fax , has been ordered to establish n prote
torato over Savage Island , says that tl
British government cannot assume prote
tion of the island , since by virtue of tl
Anglo-German agreement of ibSO the ishui
was declared neutral territory.
The promoters of the Eml
Boy expedition decline to abandc
the enterprise * . Dr. Peters hopes to gi
1,000,000 marks subscribed after the mectir
of the rclchstag. Lieutenant \Vissman stati
that the expedition , after leaving Zanziha
will proceed by the old caravan route throng
Tgando and Ungoro. The natives arc n

und other supplies arc plentiful.
U Is reported that the government hi
ordered several warships and 3.000 troops

VIENNA , Oct. 0. [ Now York Herald Cal
Special to THE Buc. ) To-day the tv
emperors and King Saxony arc shooting , b
in no warlike mood , at Murzte ; ? , in Styrl
Yesterday they went for n few hours' she *
ing in the Imperial preserves at Lamg , nc
Vienna , known ns the Thlorgarten , a pla
densely stocked with homo and foreign stu
nnd wild boar and surrounded by a w :
1 twelve of ! lftccn fexrt high. They took th *
shooting easy , stalked their gaino In c :
rlagcs und drove about the woods in vehlcl
constructed for the purpose , rapidly allgl
, ing to shoot. They had not been out hi
nn hour before Kaiser Wilhclm fir
Ins first shot. The result of t
t
i day's sport was recorded at Schoe
brunn last evening as fabulous. T
Austrian'emperor's shooting box at Munti
where chamiis shooting is proceeding , to h
until next Wednesday , is on the green slo |
of the Sommcrlng mountains. The near. .
railway station is two hours distant. Gr <
preparations have been made for the Im
perial Riwrtsmen. A whole train full of
game-keepers and servants arrived nt Murz-
tcg some days ago to prepare the things.
The country round about MurHcg is ex
ceedingly romantic , the haunts of the chamois
being In the midst of perpendicular
walls ot rock , intersected with innum
erable ravines nnd abounding In savage
scenery. These rocky regions nro unin
habited , with the exception of a few hamlets
perched on precipitous ledges. The chamois
solitudes , as they arc called , arc highly
picturesque , and whole herds of the animals
roam at leisure In those remote Alpine dis
tricts. The surrounding territory contains
vast tracts of wild country , which nro impen
etrable even to the most intrepid sportsman ,
and thus form a safe refuge for the chamois ,
but the severe cold of the last winter worked
havoc among all species of game In
that district. The viilapo of Murz-
teg consists of a dozen houses. The
Imperial shooting box Is situated in the pine
wood close by. The German emperor has
often been there before when a simple prince
in pursuit of chamois shooting. The box it
self is built in red brick and tastefully decor
ated. Antlers nnd other trophies adorn the
entrance hall. The alpenstocks that stand in
one corner bear the Kaiser's initial. These
mounUin staves are indlspenslblo in this rev
gion. A commodious dining room , with a
table for twelve covers ; a sitting room , and
several small apartments , make up the ac
commodation of the Interior. Besides n la-ge
and choice collection of horns nnd antlers ,
there is a stu ( Ted lynx , which was shot in the
neighborhood. The stnnets suitable for cha
mois shooting are situated at n considerable
distance off. The game kcepers's house is in
the midst of the district , where a strangers'
register is kept. Amongst other illustrious
names i.s that of the Empress'Elizabeth , who
has now gene for her health to Confu , to
which is afllxcd the words , "There is ficc-
dom on the mountains , " From this point
the most dinicult and dangerous stalking ex
peditions arc undertaken. Ono there who
knows such hunting says that few can shoot
this antelope if the creature , once in its rest-
lossncs ? , can fix its gaze on the huntsman ,
unless ho have a strong heart. The talker
did not add "like Kaiser William. "

BKIU.IN , Oct. fi. [ New York Herald
Cable Special to Tun BIK. ] No one can
have lived in Berlin the past week without
feeling that underneath the apparent con
tentment of absolution the embers of a rev
olutionary feeling were mouldering. While
the young emperor is away enjoying his toy
of imperialism amid banquets , court glitter
and hunts , the observant stranger could hear
not only the lower but the representatives
of well-to-do classes muttering discontent.
Few events or circumstances existed during
the time of the old kaiser to give tone to the
discontent , but now that the loss of the lib
eral Emperor Frederick , and the progressive
impre'ssions unfolded by his dairy , and the
prosecutions for publishing it , nnd Bismarck
lifting the mask , have eventuated these BO as
to make topics for the discontented. The con
sciousness of this dissatisfaction , and the
feeling that the young emperor becomes its
target , undoubtedly Instigated Bismarck to
inquire Thursday into a speech to his con-
tituents of Count Uoumelai , who is the
closest personal friend the emperor possesses.
The speech is the only topic of interest t o
day. It Is nn adroit one of defense. It was
a plea for the emperor because ho is not sen
timental like his parent , but of the govern
ing , fighting kind , like his remote ancestors
The count's speech was made directly follow
ing the significant toast nnd speeches of the
two emperors of Vienna , each drinking -
' ing effusively to the health of each others
armies and subjects. These matters were
carefully rehearsed by Bisuiarckian prompt-
era. It Is asked to-day whether there will
bo a repetition of this prologue to the new
drama of absolutism when the kaiser meets
King Humbert in Rome next week. It is
also asked whether the absence of the French
nnd Russian ambassadors and the Prince oi
Wales from Vienna was accidental.
It was under such an atmosphere
the Count Douglas thought him
0 self called upon to exclaim , "Xcvci
have I met anyone who lias the welfare
faro of his fcllow-crc.xtures so much at hear !
as the emperor , whose quick perception am
sound practical sense moves thoiistontstimcui
of older and more experienced men. " The
Berlin papers servo us a choril !
to this Douglas aria but th *
discontent is Ignored or mod *
light of. Will the forthcoming new map o
1 Europe allay or Intensify the dissatisfactioi
r becomes a burning question of the Hcrlii
and European hour.

Special to THE Bic.1 : Political interest
centers in the revolution of Bismarck's secret
mid the foreshadowed division of Europe by
the three emperors , which the Herald pub
lished with a map , and which was reproduced
in the Figaro , Gaulois , and all the leading
papers of France. The following is the arti
cle that accompanied it :
The three emperors now thoroughly under
stand each other. Strictly speaking , there Is
no imperial alliance , but there is a distinct
compact by which each is free to attain his
own clearly specified ends whenever the oc
casion may arise. For instance , what
Germany's action will bo when the
jing of Holland itics is already
known and tacitly agreed to by Russia and
\ustria. What Kussla will do in the Balkan
teninsula or in Central Asia , whenever some
lew Bulgarian revolution orsoino mad-e-cuu
\fghan chieftain may force her to show
icr hand is known and approved in ndvunco
by Germany and Austria. Again , what
Austria will do in the Algcau Sea when the
iroper time comes has the full assent of
iUHsia and Germany. Moreover the rules
goverlng small neutral states like Holland ,
Belgium and Roumania are already Indi
cated and their fate is sealed at Berlin , St.
Peters burg and Vienna. It is now a matter
of history that Kussla Has firmly opposed any
combination by which the power and
irestige of France will be lessened. It was
solely the personal intervention of Czar
Alexander II. , that prevented the German
armies from invading Franco in 1S73. Prince
Bismarck's emissary , M dolladowitz , utterly
Jailed to convince Alexander II. that durable
peace between the nations of Europe de
pended upon the dismemberment of France.
Similar overtures made by Prince DIsmarck
to the present czar also fell to the ground.
Nations , like business men , will never make
a bargain unless they receive some con
sideration for it. Germany can
offer Russia no adequate com
pensation for the disadvantages that
would occur to her by her acquicsenco in
creating a stronger Germany and weaker
Franco , but , as the late M. Ivatkoff once
pointed out to the c/ar , ttio case would be
different if England wore substituted fet
France. It is now upon this basis that c
complete understanding has been rcachcel
between Germany and Russia. Histori
teaches us that Prince Bismarck's thunder
bolts never strike twice in the same spot. It
1S03 it was Denmark. In 1SCO It wa'
Austria. In 1670 it was Franco. Prince His
marck wishes to consolidate the vast fabric 01
his fame by one crowning master stroke. He
hates England. He has trained the present
emperor to hate England. He has trainee
the German people to hate England , and re
gard her as Germany's commercial enemy
Prince Bismarck is a man of imperious pas
sion , and , when he hates , his hatred is thor
ough.
Prince Bismarck's personal animositie :
give 7cst to his political moves. Whcncve ;
Prince Bismarck has made us his mind to in
diet deadly revenge on a man or nation hi
never yet failed to accomplish his purpose
Hemcmbcr the blind king of Hanover. Re
member Arnim. Ask Austria. Ask France
To-day the entire mechanism of Prince Bis
march's workshop Is directed against Eng
lanu. When the mine is laid and nil prepare *
ho will single out England's point :
and strike at them with tin
crushing power of a mastodon and the rapid
ity of a rattlesnake. What are England'
points ) Her eastern possessions ; her cnor
nnus trade with the east ; her maritime commerce
merco all over the world. Let any ono o
these be destroyed , and the whole structure
raised by the patient toll of centuries , wil
come down with a crash. The vonsequcnce :
that it involves have been thoroughly dis
cussed at Berlin , St. Petersburg am
Vienna. The eventual annexation o
the delta of the Rhine , includ
ing Holland , Luxemburg and part o
Belgium , by Germany , is already tacltl ;
assented to by Russia and by Austria. Ho ]
land's colonies go , of course , with Hollam
herself. Even the boundary line Is alrcad ,
clearly defined , A line drawn nearly caste
to the Lys , and down that river to Meniu
and from Mcnin to Mouse , marks the bounO
ary of the Fiench and Flemish language :
The people on the north of this line spea
Flemish. Those on the south speak Frcncl
This line will some day bo the boundary b <
twccn Franco and Germany.
This Is Prince Bismarck's llnal grand cor
ception. Ho thus hopes to achieve the col *
niiil supremacy of Germany In considerntlo
of their acquicEence. Russia and Austri
nro , of course , to have dotlnlto compcns :
tion. Russia Is to have a perfectly free lion
to take , whenever she chooses , Constant
noplo , the eastern half of the Balkan penii
( tula , and all she can grasp In central Ash
Persia and India. Austria Is to have th
western half of the Balkan pcnlnsul
and Salonlca. Each empire will
have a magnificent water front.
Prince Bismarck will thus accomplish the
crowning net of his career , This explains
the mystery of the German colonial fovcr
and the Increase of the German navy. The
time and money consecrated to German col
onization will not have been wnstcd. Prince
Bismarck's secret is now to Isolate England ;
to unite the Russian and German fleets
against England , whllo Russia strikes at
India ; to keep Franco in check by
giving her a slice of Belgium ; to
work with the newly acquired German
coaling stations in the Indian ocean
and the Pacillc as u basis to oust England
from her present colonial supremacy and re
duce her to u second Holland. Such are only
a few of the irons among the many that
Prince Bismarck has in the tire to realize
this conception.
Lord Salisbury .still believes that Eng
land's only friend is Germany. He pins his
faith in Prince Bismnrk , and has not yet flu
shed apologizing to him for the share that
he English court Is supposed to have had
n the publication of Emperor Frederick's
iary. Lord Salisbury should remember
hat Prince Gortchakoff begun by being
'rinec Bismarck's patron , but gradually be-
! amo his dupe. Count Bciist , Count Hone ;
etti , and Count Von Arniin , nil ended ns
'rinco Bismarck's victims. Lord Salisbury
s niiulo of sterner stuff , and should take
earning before It is too late.
One won/ about the stragetic railways
rom Cologne to Meuse and the
betrayal of the Belgium neutral
ly announced by the Nouvelle
Jevuo and the Matin. The railways nro not
ilircctcd against Franco any more than they
arc against England or any power likely to
ipposc Germany. These railways , it is true ,
eed Belgium and Holland with German
roops in less than seven hours , but this islet
lot ilircctcd against France , but is simply
anticipating the annexation of Bclguim and
Holland by Germany. The revelations of the
Xouvellc Neuvo thus confirm the important
news that wo publish to-day. The King of
.he Belgians will not loose his throne , but
will bo made king of the Dutch also. Ho
will become an integral part of the Gorman
empire , just like the kings of Bavaria and
Wurtemburg , the Grand Duke of Mecklen
burg and nil other Germanic sovereigns. In
doing this Prince Bismarck will bo merely
: .iking a leaf from history. The Dutch are
: iot so antagonistic to the Belgians or to the
Germans ns the Scots wcro to the English
when .lames IV. of Scotland became James
I. of England , and the Scots to-day are the
nest loyal subjects of the Queen of Eng-
and. r I'
Everything indicatesJhat Russia is getting
ready for more startling advances in central
Asia. The expedition of"GeneralPrjestalsky ,
the famous Russian explorer'Sto Thibet one
Thassa causes grave \ineasincts in Calcutta.
This expedition Is ill-timed for British
prestige in the Himalayas. Colonel Graham
has Just won a victory over 10,000 Thibet
ans In Sikkatn , a Httlo district between Ncp
aul and Bootan , that commands the passes to
Thibet. The victory was a brilliant one , but
owing to the wlntcry climate , Colonel Gra
ham's troops are forced to retreat , the Indiai
troops being unable to withstand the cold
so Gnatong and Sikkam arc to be evacuated
The moral effect gf the victory will bo lost
Just as the Russian troops appear in Thassa
whither Rajah Sikkam has taken rcfugo
Meanwhile General AnnenhofT's railways
progress rapidly and will soon enable
Russia to throw vast armies so as to menace
any point of the thousand miles of English
Indian frontier.
It is u remarkable fact that since Emperor
William visited the czar at Peterhof the mos
extraordinary activity has prevailed all along
the Russian line in central Asia from Kisi
tVrvat to Thibbcts.

PAKIH , Oct. 0. [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to Tun BEE. ] Autumn has
fairly set in. Red-faced auregnats are roast
ing chestnuts on every street corner. The
weather is cool , crisp and bright. AH Paris
is out in the Bois Boulgno or frolicmg about
nt the Fontaincblcau , St. Gcrmaino or Ver
sailles. There has been a terrible flutter
among foreigners residing in France. It
seems that in n total population of Ori30,759 (
there was , two years ago , not loss than
1,1S < V > 31 foreigners , so that it is fair to as
sume that for thirty Frenchmen Franco con
tains to-day one stranger , who is living in ttio
country , enjoying all the advantages of citi
zenship without any corresponding share of
its burdens or responsibilities , and this pro
portion is increasing with extraordinary
rapidity. The French authorities
regard this with dissatisfaction because the
mass of these strangers show little disposi
tion to identify themselves with the country.
The decree requiring all resident strangers
to give nn account of themselves to the pie-
feet of police is aimed nt the vast influx of
the lower strata of society from all nations
who gradually make Franco an asylum for
thieves , vagabonds and outcasts of other
countries. Moreover , most of these foreign
tramps came from the two nations that
France most hates Germany and Italy
consequently the Americans who will visit
France need feel no anxiety. Those of us
who happen permanently to reside here
are required to send word to the
prefect of police , giving far less
information that the census taker requires
in the United States , nnd the affair is fiir
ishcd , und those of us who simply come
hero for pleasure or amusement don't have
to do anything at all.

spondcnt , who has been making a tour of the
French colonies of Canada , to find out what
the French Canadians think of annexation
and which was cabled to thoEuropcan Herald

nnd excited the sympathy of Franco will

the separatist movement in Canada is nol
nearly so strong as it has hitherto been be
liovcd to be , but the idea of becoming nn

ravnt and a grey background form a picture
n black , white and grey that Is most pleas-
tig. The lilomlo mustache and hair , blue

ut In this portrait , which every one finds most
Ifelike. The five-year-old son of Due do Gro-
iiioiit is also painted in Louis XIV. e-ostumc.
The long , curly hair of young Louis do
roinout looks Just like the wig of Louis
XIV. A steel armor is worn and Is well set
by a red cravat with a rabat Do Guipure.
Tills portrait forms a most artistic contrast
o that of the Due do Gromont and recalls an
'Id ' family poitrait representing a young Duo
ile Gromont who was the first man in the
French army under Louis XIV to cross the
Ihlnc nt the battle near Builcau.

MANCIIKSTCH , Oct. 0. [ New York Herald
? ablc Special to Tun Br.r. . ] The great
ihurch congress held heio during the week
closed to-day. The most sensational paper
read w.is the ono by Canon Lacock , arguing
'or an intermediate state after death for the
'nlihful , where they undergo a process of
restoration or development towards perfe'C-
ion. Pr.iyers for the dead , he explained ,
, vere only held to be of servle'o to these who
: md died in tlie faith. There arc , however ,
possibilities for a heathen intermediate state ,
foritisnottobobelievcdtli.it , in spite of
he declaration of the scriptures , the whole
icathcn world will bo consigned to perdition.
The reverend canon suggested that the
gnorant who lived in Christian lands will In
tins intermediate ; state stand in the same
category as the heathens proper , but there
was no chance for wilful be'lievers , for tl.cia
there was no restoration or return.
Another paper read witli great effect by it *
author Archdeacon Farrar , repudiated the
old-fashioned notions of future punishment.
According to such notions tne vast majority
of mankind , dying unrepentant , were con-
sinned in after life to a lake of lire and brim
stone , where they were tortured with Incon
ceivable agonies in material flames , and
these endless milleniums of vengeance were
reckoned from the moment of death. Within
living memory this was the orthodox view.
Eleven years ago , however , in Westminster
abbey , ho ventured to repudiate these views ,
and ho repudiated them still. The rumor has
been industriously circulated that ho had
chongtAhis mjnd. , Hehad not in any -phr-
ticular rot ho rejoiced to see evidence that
thotteands of sincere Christians had changed
their minds upon this tremendous subject.
At first , day by day , and week by week , the
most unsparing anathemas were heaped upon
him , but now the old doctrine In its
naked horror was practically dead.
Various authorities were quoted by the arch
deacon to support his belief in a future which
shall not be ono of eternal retribution.
Another paper , by Rev. Sir George W. Cox ,
was equally strong in its repudiation of the
doctrmo of eternal punishment , nnd he , like
Archdeacon Farrar , quoted largely from the
fathers , remarking that the more wo rise to
the faith of these great Christian thinkers
and teachers the less wo shall care for
dramatic pictures of a great white throne
with angels marshalling mankind to the
great nssi/e. These opinions of the reverend
baronet elicited sounds of disapprobation.
There was hissing at a reference to the
tyranny of sacred books , nnd at the doubts
expressed as to the authenticity of some portions
tions of the now testament. The author even
doubted whether some discourses in the
gospels wcro ever delivered at all. The
president interfered , however , to prevent any
demonstration , either for or against , urginfj
the solemn nature of the subject ns a
plea for silence on the part of the
audience. A majority appeared to be in ac
cord with Archdeacon Farrar and Canon
Lncock , though they resented scepticism.
Sir George Cox , at an alter meeting in the
to wn hall , while the audience heartily ap
plauded Dr. Farrar , most of the speakers
joined in the debate , solemnly protested
against any interference with the time-hon
ored plnco of darkness , fire and chains , now
cphcuistically called shcol. On the whole ,
there seemed to bo u genc'ral air of unreality
about the discussions during the past week ,
but another sensation laid In a paper by
Bishop Mitchinson , who charged the church
of England , and especially his follow bishops ,
with want of sincerity on the subject of
mission. Ho did not think that enough was
made of missions or missionaries , bccnuso
the latter wcro never promoted , rarely
noticed , and the church at homo seemed In
clined to underrate their services. Other
discussions related to the prayer book creed ,
church services , lay help , Sunday schools ,
church councils , extensive episcopate and
sisterhoods. Dr. Lumlcy Norrison , a pro
fessor of divinity at Cambridge , toad a papct
strongly advocating the Introduction of a
greater elasticity Into the use of the prayer
book , and apparently hinting nt the propriety
of allowing a clergyman occasionally to add
matter of his own.
The congress adjourned to Cardiff for the
next year.
