This has been a great day for Emperor William , Bismarck and the Fatherland. 1 he German empire , through Its Vtigth and breadth , tins been flll.'d with an enthusiasm almost indescribable over the complete reconciliation between its two Eost illustrious sons. The capital has abandoned itself to a delirium of joy at the affecting sight of the high spirited young emperor and the grizzled patriot , statesman clasping hands with the utmost cordiality of manner , and embracing each other with a heartiness and warmth , whose sincerity it seemtd impossible to doubt. One Grand Ovation. From Friedrichsruh to Berlin Oherc was a series of ovations to Bismarck at eve ry station past which his train bore him , to the city where the greatest triumphs of his career had been achieved. Beginning with the episode of the pro- cntation of flowers by the young women of the town where Bismarck resides , continu ing with large and cheering assemblages along the entire route to Berlin , and culminating in the grand reception by the Immense multitude in the capital , the day was one which must nave gra tilled the ex-chancellor .to his heart's content , and fully convinced him of his unshaken hold upon the affections of his beloved people. It was a fitting climax of his declining days and to the long number of wonderful popular demonstrations which have been held during his illustrious career in his es pecial honor. In spite of all that has been said and done within the uast few years , it showed the aged public servant that his name and fame were dear to the hearts of his fellow citizens , and that in Berlin , which owes so much of her greatness to him , there were none who rould outrival him in the estimation of its inhabitants nor rob him of their unbounded love. The emperor , by the graclousuess of his rcccnUStf td' "Blsmarcu , arouseS unbounded enthusiasm , and after their' meeting every- whercver William appeared tlio shouts of approval and good will were deafening. lid Cirect on Iho Urrmau People. The widespread effect of tha reconciliation cannot bo doubted. Its full effect cannot at the present time be appreciated.- cer tainly has done a vast deal towards the unity and strength of the empire , but Bis marck's age precludes the littelihood of any further active participation by him In Ger man politics , and perhaps the most reason able explanation that has yet been given for the emperor's initiative in restoring the friendliest relations between himself and Bismarck is that Germany's ruler recog nized the fact that Blsmarcit's days are numbered , and he has cancelled the past , with all its bitter feuling , before it is too late. Chancellor von Caprivi has kept himself well in the backcround during this recep tion , but from all that can now be observed the event must surely strengthen his posi tion. These who have been most loudly clamoring for his downfall are disconcerted , and what is left of tha opposition to Ca privi seems so inconsiderable as hardly to merit serious consideration.

The prince seemed plensed at his appearance : for tne Imndwme uniform made him look like n giant compared with the frock coot of civil attire , wntch ho tins been in the habit of wearing recently. The presentation of the aurel wreath at the hands of one of th young jfirls previously referred to in this dis patch also highly pleased the veteran states man. man.The train engine , and railway depot were gaily decked wUh Hewers and ounting , and every station along the road to Berlin was decorated and crowded with people who cheered the prince on his way to the capital. IvuUer Conlii Not .Me ft Him. In Berlin itself , the people were astir at a much earlier hour than usual nnd the streets soon became filled with people in holiday aHirs pressing onward in order to tnke up the uast position possible alonsr the rout * which the priace would follow from Lehrte or Hanoverian railroad station through the Brandenberg gate and along Unter den Linden to the imperial castle , The emperor intended to welcome Prince Blismarck in person at the mill-rail station ; but at the last moment was obliged to send his regrets to the urince ns he was. obliged to meet the king of Snxonv at the Annnlt railroad station at exactly the same hour that Prince BlsmnrcK was to arrive in Berlin. All the streets through which Prince Bis- mark was to pnss were handsomely deco rated and tha windows of the houses began to fill with pooolo long before the hour of the arrival of the prince's train in Berlin. Large crowds sralhered at U o'clock along the line of route and their numbers continued to increase until noon , when thn police had all they could do , with the as sistance of the military , to manage the vast multitude gathered to welcome Prince Bis marck back to Berlin after so long and painful an absence , The crowds were thick in thu neichbnrhood of Lehrte station. the Alsenplatz. the Koenijrsolatz , tne Brandenberg gate. Parlsierplatz , and especially along L'nt-er den Linden and the Lustgarten. Large stands , handsomely decorated , were erected at various points from which a good view of the procession could bd seun and a lifesized wax figure of Prince Bismarck was placed in front of the arcade called Die Passage. Clieered tlie Kmpenir. While the crowds on Unter den Linden were awaiting the arrival of Prince Bis- niarck they suddenly saw Emperor William , attended by a single aide-de-camp , returnimr from a ride in the Garton. This was all about 11 o'clock , and as the emperor rode quickly toward the schloss f the royal palace ) he was frantically cheered by the people , who seemed determined to show howiieart- ily they appreciated the fact tiiat he had be come reconciled to Prince Bismarck. The reception accorded , to the emperor upon tbe occasion wasontirely unprecedented and evi dently delighted him , for he smiled and sa luted on all aides. Shortly before noon the crowd about the Lehrte station was most dense and remark able from the iact that in front of the sta tion as well upon the platform , was a large assemblage of distinguished officers and pub lic pflleialsj all diossed. in gorgeous uniforms -antl.alFassflinhllng thereby speciardrder'oT Emperor WjUiam , who had directed that all tbe officers ol the headquarters , tne chiefs of _ the civil nnd military caoinets and other similar ofliccrs should attend the reception of Brince Bismarck in full uniform at the railroad station mentioned. In addition there were present representatives from nearly every aJciety in and about Berlin , and a large force of municipal officers and students. Shortly afternoon Prince Henry of Prussia , brother of Emperor William , surrounded by n large and brilliant staff , rode up to the sta tion , where ho was heartily received by the crowds of enthusiastic Bcrliners and others there assembled. The Lehrte railroad station was most tastefully decorated with flags , flowers , everp reens and bunting , and rich , red car pet was laid on the platform and down the steps leadimr from tbo station. Around the neighborhood of the depot a strong force of military and police guarded every point and kept spaces clear for the most distinguished oftlcers and pub lic men. When all had assembled en and about the depot the scene presented by the many jind various uniforms was brilliant and attractive in the extreme. All the pop ular generals and public officials were en thusiastically cheered when recognized , and on all sides the people showed how thoroughly they appreciated the prince's visit and the reconciliation wnlch had taken place between him and the emperor. Echoed Tilt-mi ; ! ! thn City. Promptly at 11 o'clock the train bearing Prince Bismarck and his party from Fried- richsruh to Berlin entered the Lehrte sta tion and us it slowed up at the platform Prince Bismarck was seen at the window of his carriage and was loudly cheered by thosa who recognized him within the depot. This cheering was the signal for an outburst of applause which , being taken up by the crowds outside th j railroad station , seemed to be carried throughout Berlin na it flew from street to street through Unter dan Linden and to the palace itsulf , where the storms of cheering gave notice that he of blood and Iron had once more set foot in the capital ot tbe empire he had done so much to create. When the train had come to a standstill , Prince Bismarck stepned upon the platform wliere he wab met by Prince Henry of Prus sia and a large urovvd of distinguished of ficers. Prince Henry extended u most cor dial greeting to Prince Bismarck and the latter shook hands with many of the distin guished officers present , several of whom , especially the veterans , were affected con siderably at thus meeting thu Iron Chancel lor onca more. After a short interval , dur ing which a number of most complimentary little speeches were mado. Prince Bismarck was ascortod by Prince Henry to one of the imperial carnages which was in waiting at the entrance of the dciKit. As the prince emerged from the station and was recognized by tbe people a storm -hochs" jnd'hur - r.ihs" arose from the crowd until it assumed a deafening roar which could bo heard for miles.

The six republican votes turned the scales in favor of the resolution questioning the secre tary's power. This decision was reached after listening for two hours yestcrdnv to Secretary Car lisle's explanation of his views on the right of the sccratary to issue bonds und apply the proceeds to the current expenses of the government. Tne vote was taken after a briefTTlscusslon , which was led by Mr. Bailey in a speech replying to Secretary Carlisle's statement of his posi- tiou and explaining the intent of tile resolu tion.

There was a further loss of (7114,000 m the treasury gold reserve yesterday and it now stands at ? uTT15r,114. although there is ao material change in the net balance. Thede- Itf-tl&'re.ve'iihes.fQc.tUo montli to Mills of Texas ; to a place as a member of the senate committee on flnance , to continue during the absence of Senitor McPherson - son , has occasioned some comment. Diligent Inquiry fails to develop that there was any motive for the charge except that found in Mr. Mc- Pherjon's" enforced absence on account of his health. There is a probability that , Mc- Pherson's absence being prolonged , and as the committee is likely to be called upon to take up very arduous duties in connection with the tariff bill and the finances of the country , it was thought wise to lill the com mittee's ranks , and Senator Mills was se lected because of his familiarity with the subjects to be considered through many years experience on the wavs and means committee in the house. Republicans are quite concerned over the change , as they regard Mr. Mills more pronounced in leaning toward free trade than Mr. Me- Phcrson. The fact is also noted that Senator Vance Is absrnt from tha city on account of his health , which has been so poor as to pre clude his attendance upon the sessions of the senate and the mcntingof the committee durinz the greater pnrt of congress. It is thought probable it may be necessary to ob tain a substitute for him. Senator McPherson - son is at Aiuon , S. C. He went first to Florida , but found his bronchitis was so affected that it was necessary to seek a a dryer climate. Senator Vance is In Florida. Are Not Vat Aeraeil. Chairman Rellly of the House committee on PnciSc railroads has had frequent confer ences of late with Senator Brice , chairman of the senate coramihco on the same sub ject. The two have also seen Secretary CarlUle and Attorney General Olney with a view to determining on some line of legisla tion whieti would meet the complicated con dition of affairs on Pacific roads. Mr. Reilly says the great debt owed by the road Is so fast maturing that some plan of legis lation by the present congress is Imperative. This view Is taken by all with whom h has consulted , hut as yet they hive reached no agreement as to what particular line of action should be adopted. Mr. Reilly hopes , however , that both committees of congress will soon determine upon a common policy which will be effective In securing the ROV- crnmantaeniiibi loss and at the same time secure the Pacific railroads against actions which would bo harmful to them.

It has bean charged" that the deaths ot sev eral members were indirectly due to tne foul air which they were compelled to breathe for several hours every day. Recently tne committee on ventilation and accoustics , whicti has heretofore been to all intents an honorary body , hus devoted itself to solving the question of a supply of pure air.

That the ICi-w York democrats do not con sider themselves bound by the action of last night's caucus was evident as soon as the Journal was read this morning , when Mr. Cockran continued the Uhbusteriug move ment inaugurated yesterday , by makinir a point of no quorum. This compelled a roll call , but before this was completed Mr. Cockran changed his mind and withdrew the Bointof order.
