Imperial Language That Has Too Great a Despotic Sound. EXCITEMENT AMONG ALL CLASSES. Germany's Imperor Fays the Soldiers Are His, Tody and Soul. TWO TREATIES TilAT ABE DISCUSSED Beklix. Dec 5. The silence of th Jtrichsamcigcr, which is the Government'! organ, in regard to the Emperor s suppose speech to the recruits at Potsdam, in vilic' lie is alleged to have said that the soldiery belonged to him body and soul, is taken to confirm the truth of the leport which first appeared in an obscure paper, the Xcisca JWzse. to which it was communicated by one of the recruits. The semi-official papers at first vaguely asserted that the words of the Emperor had been distorted. Now the ultra-conservative .Vwss, Toti, Krcuu Zntung and other papers of tnat class defend the Imperial language as expressing the extent of the allegiance the soldiers owe the Emperor through their oaths. Apart from the ultra-conservatives', gen eral anxiety is expressed because of the despotic tendencies shown by the Emperor is his recent utterances. The Liberal organs demand that public denial be made' of the words attributed to His JIajesty. Wilhclm's " ord Considered Dangerous. Prof. Delbruck, who for a long time was a tutor in the lamily of the late Emperor Frederick, has written that the words the Emperor inscribed in the Munich register, and the general tone of the address made on that occasion, constitute a danger that can not be overlooked. Every class of the community and all parties in the State are anxiously excited over His Majesty's utter ances. The public the profeor says, must ieel as though they had recehed something in the nature of an insult. The Emperor joined Prince Henry of Prussia to-day in a hunting excursion on his estate at Goehrdc, rear Luxebourg. The Evangelistic Synod had a protracted and earnest debate on the Emperor's recent rescript in regard to immorality. The Sjnod unanimously protested against it and recommended a severe censoiship of the theaters and popular literature. It also decided to petition the Government to for bid the employment of women in beer shops. Severe Censorship of Morals Maintained. The present censorship is not to be'blamed for lack of severity in connection with the drama. A play being performed at the Xiessine Theater had passages suppressed ntter it had been running a month, because the Chief of Police found that the dialogue alluded to disbelief in immortality. The Berlin Medical Council discussed the im morality rescript in a different spirit from that displayed liv the Synod. A majority of the doctors advocated" the licensing and regulation of houses. Finally the Council formed a commission of inquiry into the immorality in question, and the Burgo master and Chief of Police weie invited to assist in the investigation. On Tuesday next Chancellor von Caprivi will introduce in the Beichstag the treaties of commerce recently negotiated with Aus tria and Switzerland. Though the Seiehtaa tager is expected to publish the text of the treaties in an E&rdblatt to-morrow the exact nature of the arrangement has not yet been revealed Treaties That Aro 'Widely Discussed. The Chancellor gave his first Parlimentary dinner on Thursday last. The treaties were the chief subject of conversation. The Chancellor, however, refused to give any information regarding their terms. Beyond humorous predictions that everybody would find something to like inthem, he declined to speak. He privately informed several of the members who were his guests on this occasion, that urgency would be demanded by the Government for the debate to decide the tariff proposals He declired that he would oppose sending the treaties to a com mittee, as the plan of the Government fore bade protracted delay in the acceptance of the treaties. ". Since the dinner the talk in the lobby of the Keichttag shows that a majority of the members 'are determined to send the treaties to a committee, if for no other reason than to hear Chancellor Von C.iprivi give reasons for a commercial policy which he could not reveal in the open sitting of the House. Although the full detajlsof the treaties have not been made public it is known that they determine the tariff for the next 12 years. They modify Prince Bismarck's protective svstem, which has been existent since 1879. 'They fix the maximum tariffs, but leave the Government elastic powers in regard to the minimum duties. The publication of the details is atraited witn excited interest. VE CALL OX BTKKTBODV KEff ADVERTISEMENTS. WILL GIVE FREE THIS WEEK eA"1 SEW ADVERTISEMENT;!.
