11URLIN. Nov. II. The Reichstag reaa-
serabled tcxlay. The speech from the throno
dwell at considerable length on tho events
n cmna, wuicn navo excited sucu deep
emotion among civilized people, saying:
Fanatical hate nnd dark superstition, In
cited by unscrupulous advisers of tho court,
havo driven misguided masses of Chlueso
to acts uf atrocity ugalust tho outposts ot
western civilization nnd Christian worship
dwelllug peacefully in their midst.
"My minister died nt tho hand of un as-
eassln, In u courageous attempt to overcotno
tho rising peril. Tho foreigners nt tho
capital baw themselves threatened, life and
limb. These- things of horror united tho
civilized community, whero otherwise there
was a divergence. All nations against which
the unparalleled onslaught was directed
drew closer. Their tons fought with ono
mind, shoulder to shoulder, oven as yonder
standards float side by side. So tho gov
ernments show themselves In council, united
with tho solo wish to rcstoro nn orderly
stato of things as speedily as possible, and,
after tho banishment of tho chief culprits,
avert u recurrenco in tho futuro of such a
disturbance of tho peaco of tho world."
In announcing that tho relations of Ger
many with nil tho powers aro good, tho
Bpeech recalls tils majesty's sorrow at tho
assassination ot King Humbert ot Italy, say
ing ho was "my ally and dear friend who
fell u victim to a damnable outrage."
Ciiulilii'l Walt.
Tho sp.jocu then proceeds: "I would
sooner have consulted tho Reichstag on the
measures In Chinn but for tho necessity ot
prompt action nnd tho difficulty of furnish
ing reliable Information. Whenever the
Reichstag co.ild form directions or estimate
tho expenditure required tho government folt
confident thnt tho representatives would not
refuse their subsequent sanction to the
necessary expenditure."
Turning to domestic matters, his majesty
said that in consequence of tho natural
growth of tho revenuo and tho Increased
taxation voted last session that abundant
funds were available in almost every branch
of ilfo in tho empire, especially for
measures for tho benefit of workers nnd
for tho defense of tho country.
A customs tariff, ho added, would proba
bly bo laid before tho Uundcsrath during
tho present session.
Tho bpeech concluded by announcing
various hills which would bo Introduced.
Tho ceremony ot opening tho Reichstag
occurred at noon In tho Knights hall of tho
Schloss, In tho presence of tho emperor.
At tho conclusion of the speech from
tho throne 13mpcror William was warmly
cheered and Count von riuclnw. tho Imperial
chancellor, formally declared tho session
opened.
Tho liberal newspapers express dissatis
faction with tho reabons adduced li .the
speech from tho throno for Iho , emperor
not obtninlng tho sanction of tho Reich
stag before sending tho Chlneso expedition.
The Krctiz Zeltuug, the organ of tho Prus
sian Junker squirearchy, while approving
tho bpeech, asserts that the tight will not
bo able to support tho government on every
kind of question during the session.
Tho National Zcltung soys: "Parliament,
of course, will grant tho expenditure de
manded, but clearly glvo tho government
to understand thnt in the futuro It requires
different treatment-"
Soveral of tho evening papers unnounco
that tho financial bill submitted to tho fed
eral council shows that to balance It the
sum of 2,240.l".30l marks will ho required.
The bill empowers tho Imperial chancellor
to raise a loan of 97.2SC.3S I niarka and to
Issuo treasury bills to tho amount of 175,-
000,000 marks to strengthen tho ordinary
working capital of tho Imperial treasury.
A bill providing for a third supplementary
credit on account of tho China expedition
will bo submitted to the Reichstag.
Political circles generally nio disap
pointed at tho colorlcssness of the speech
from tho throne.
Tho cost of tho China transportation up
to October 23 by tho North Gcrmnn Lloyd
and llamhurg-Amerlcuu lines was moro
than 27,000,000 marks.
Auothcr Item of tho government's pro
posals is a provision to pension invalided
soldiers who render sorvico in China, or
their relicts, ut double tho allowuuco made
In tho regular army.
Comment liy German I'rrmi.
1IF.RL1N, Nov. 14. Tho papers point to
tho fact that the speech from tho throno
contulncs no surprises. Many, Including
Bomo government organs, admit that tho
explanation for tho delay In calling tho
Reichstag Is weak.
Tho Hcrllner Neilsto Nnchrlchlen suya:
"Wo do not bcllovo that tho explanation
offeri'd will prove occeptublo to the Reich
stag. An appropriation for a preliminary
credit could havo been carried in threo days
without opposition, and tho government
would thus havo Becurcd tho approval of
tho Reichstag In advanco for ItH unuvold
ablo action In China. In thl3 way its po
sition would havo boon incomparably
stronger."
Tho Krouz Zcltung admits that tho
criticisms on tho governments courso nro
not without a certain Justification. The
Cologno Volkn Zeltuug, tho lending cen
trist organ, will say tomorrow: "Tho ex
plunatlou offered U not convincing. Ad
mitting that tho Reichstag could not havo
been callcJ Immediately upin tho breaking
out of tho China troubles, still nothing pro
vented calling It months ago in order to
odd weight to Gerniuny's action."
Papers, however, which criticise, admit
that tho Rclchslng will vote tho credits
asked. Tho Frelslnnlgo Zcltung polntu out
that tho speech from tho throno failed to
mention that tho budget forecasted for 1001,
will necessitate u loan of 97,000,000 marks
to balance- Contrary to tho usual practice,
admission for tho press and visitors to
tho opening of tho Reichstag by tho em
peror wero not Issued. This is explained
as due to extra precautious now taken for
hla majesty's safety.

that discord prevails In Pekln between tho

bclvos, Tho VoerwnrU, tho socialist organ
nays: "We aro Informed that tho kaiser Is
Indignant over tho letters of tho soldiers

KHARNUY, Neb.,' Nov. It. (Special Tel
egram.) Temporarily, at least, the trouhlo
at tho Kearney Military ncademy. uu Kpls
eopallan school, has been patched up. Colo
nel Chittenden, who has been at tho head
of tho school, today turned tho manage
ment of the placo over to Prof. II. N. Rus
sell, tho head master, and ho will resume
the normal routine at the academy.
Thero bus been much dissatisfaction at
tho school for somo tlmo owing to tho ac
tions of Colonel Chittenden, tho whole
Mutation coming to a head on Saturday,
when the entlro teaching corps resigned
and catuo to Kearney, tnklns quarters nt
the Midway hotel. All tho boys but llvi
camo with them. Ono story Is to the effect
that tho boys did much damage to tho
building before leaving, breaking windows,
destroying furniture, defacing walls and
tho like.
A circular has been Issued by ono of tho
teachers who resigned from tho school. Tim
circular haa been mailed to patrons of
tho school. Tho writer says he was forced
lo res I g n by a series ot actions on the part
of tho head of tho school, culminating in his
drawing a pistol on several boys In a dorml
tory, Slnco then he has exercised no control
of tho cadets Tllcy havo been on the streets
and wero under no discipline whatever.
The school buildings nro owned by tho
Hplscopal church of tho Laramie division
and several ot tho authorities ot tho church
took tho matter in hand, resulting In oust
ing Colonel Chittenden and putting in his
plnco Prof. Russell, former headmaster.
All tho boys flocked to tho headmaster.
It Is alleged tho troublo huppcued Hal
loween, when tho boys wero tearing up
property In tho dormitory and desperate
measures had to bo taken to prevent them
from demolishing property.
Tho whole matter Is being caiefully kept
becret. Prof. Russell has nothing to say,
except what ho says in the letter to tho
patrons of tho school. Colonel Chittenden
tays everything has been amicably nettled
ami ho has moved from school. Thero
