announced It. Greal Brilain cannot go on

Imports and taat she must adopt a policy of
retaliation. His words admit of no possibil-
ty of baing misunderstood. After caatena-
ing that tbe principle of taking in tbe gools
of all nations duty free might ba very nob.e ,
but u was not business , ho baldly crossed
ILo dividing linn and said :
" 1 would impress upon you that if you in
tend in this conflict ol commercial treaties to
bold yoor own , you must be prepared , if need
be , to inflict upon nations who injure you tbe
penalty which is in your hands , ot refusing
them access lo your markets. "
This memorable declaration was received
with prolonged cheers by the audience as tbs
beginning of Iho end of bogus free trade in
England.
Weary of nxUtlnc Order.
More than once I have ventured to
call your attention to what is coming
on tbe occasion of ths recent offer
*
„ / * of Cacuda to receive English goods on
favorable terms. If England would treat
Canada in tbe same spirit it would tend
much to bring the question Into the field o !
practical politics. That ofler called for an

lory partv , advises the people to accept it ,

An article bv Prince Bismarck in ths

ol comment and is likely to exercise influence
in Italy. It declares that Italy should not
be forcsfl in her present financial weakness
to increase her military strength , out sbe
should be allowed to give the dnMhuud what
assistance she can. Tne tenor of the article
shows that Prince Bismarck apprehends

Trouble for Von Cnpnvl.
Chancellor von Caprivi haugs on to office
still , nlthoucb he knows that his prestige is
gone and that his influence is shattsrei. The
crar is his most fervent advocate , not be
cause he admire * him he has by no means a
high opinion of Caprivi's statCimantbip
but because bo prefers him to a stronger
unancellor. It is doubtful whether the pres
ent chancellor , who bos much more to do
with the army-thaa be nominal minister of
war , General voc Kaltenbarn-Stacban , will
venture to usk the Reichstng for the supplies
xvhich the Prussian military party regards
as indispensable to tbe protection of the
nition. He will probably prefer to bid for
tae support of the centrist party by intro-
aacing a two years' military service bill.
The kaiser aud most of the expsricncea
officers lu the Prussian army are still bit
terly opposed to the scheme wmch they re
gard as u danger to the fatherland , and if bo
aoes not como to gnef before the chancellor
may fall on this issue.
I'lre Anns Are DeceptUe.
1 am assured that the conserrative party
now holds proofs which tend to show that
there is sofce truth nt least in the startlmr
cnarpes which Rector Ahlwnrd. . has brought
against Herr Loewe. The Germnns are now
thoroughly alarmed about their rifles and it
will take a great deal mjrs than the half
hearted explanations of the R icbsanzeigei-
to calm them.
Itis not improbable , by tbo bye. that the
Russians , may soon have a slight shDk with
regard to their armament. 1 hear that the
revolvers supplied to tbe Russian cavalry are
not all tney should be , but tha mischief in
this case will be relatively small nt the worst
and it will not be much telked of. Absolute
rovernmeuls do not encourage an agitation
like that of Rector Ahlwardt's.
Despite all the contradictions of the
papers , including tbe Hamburger Kachrich-
ten , 1 cm assure you tnat negotiations are in
proz < OBI w hich may era lone lead to Uount
Herbert Bismarck's appointment to a diplo
matic post. Whether Von Caprivi will be in
office wiien tbe appointment is made 1 do not
pretend to know. To jud a from some re
marks attributed to Count Hsrbsrt in a ra-
cent interview the chancellor is the chief if
not the only stumbling block in his path.
Rather law in the day the government has ,
I hear , resolved to order tbe arrest of Rector
Ablwarcit , \ \ hen or bow the arrest TTUI bs
made it not seined , but u side issue will
probably be chosen as a pretext , not the
Loewe libels.
All attempts to indues Lubsnstein to visit
America have failed. Mcwzcn.

whispers of dissatisfaction.
One prominent brokerage bouse sum

the government from the G jrmanists When
the attempt was made by the revolutionists to
blow up his residence with a dynamilc bomb
he became frightened and handed in his
resignation. Palacio at first refused to
accept it , but Mattes insisted upon relinnc.
He IIRB not been near his offleo for a week.
His under secrolarf is attending to tha

the dictator's oouno and declared
the sessions of the court suspended
