Bebun, May 2L—Tho negotiations
with England concerning territory
Africa had almost reached tho point of
an exchange of protocols relative to the
Gorman sphere of influence, extending
from tho east coast to tho Congo Free
State, when Lord Salisbury, the British
prime minister, sent Ids envoy, Sir Percy
Anderson, emphatic orders to suspend
tho negotiations and await instructions.
Since then Sir Edward Mulct, the Britbh
ambassador at Berlin, has intimated that
negotiations will only bo resumed on tho
basis of the recognition by Germany of
the Eaglish rights on the west coaat of
Lake Tanganyiki and the territories
north of Tanganyiki, including Aganda.
Tho foreign office hero interprets tlio
changed attitude of Lord Salisbury to
tho public clamor in England over the
threatened dispossession of the English
from the territories connecting the Brit
ish empire in south Africa with the
sources of the Nile. Whatever is Lord
Salisbury’s motive, it has evoked an
energetic pnxee! from CbanreMov Von
Capnvi, which tho emperor either in
spired or indorsed. Only strong state
combined with family, reasons deter
mines tho cinperor to persist in his
cord al relations with the English gov
ernment.
UEHJIA>Y ON E50LISH OCCUFATIOV OF
EGYPT.
The North German Gazette, whose di
rector recently had several interviews
with Chancellor Von Caprivi, obtained a
semi-official communication advocating
the continuance of English occupation of
Egypt as essential to tho prosperity of
that country. Tho article obviously
pointed that the German government
was ready to support tho permanent oc
cupancy of Egypt by tho British. The
Gazette did not state the terms, but sug-
‘ ‘ that if Germany obtained a hold
districts in Central Africa, clainiod
by England, the British army would bo
on firmed in the occupation of Egypt.
The emperor, as if desiring to mark the
strength of the entente with England, is
rwlfthratin* tha ninvn’s birthday with
unusual ceremony. 8ir Edward’ Malct
and the whole British embassy banquet-
ted to-night at tbe royal cattle. The
emperor toasted tbe queen aa the head of
a great family, the ruler of a great
friendly nation, and the commander of

sion he said: "May Uod preservo aud

THE A OUT AND LABOR BILLS,
The Reichstag committee on tho army
and labor protection bills will reaaeetuUe
the week before the preliminary sluing
of the House. The progress of the arm;
bill justifies the calculation Unit it wil
be passed by a vote of 245 for to 125
against, despite tbs government admis
sion that the present demand is a mere
installment.
Herr Richer, in an article in the
Frees!nnige, commenting on tbe dis
closure made to the committee, says
they show that in the near inture the
German peace effective will be 014,OUO
nun instead of 4W.U0G.
Maltzhan's refusal to satisfy Wind-
thorst in tbe committee on tbe report
that the treasury will wont 600,000,000
marks to execute tbe government's mill,
tary plans will not retard the bill. The
•oculist section of the Freissinige party
and a section of the clericals will join
tbs conservatives in supporting the
specialists. The socialists have three
members, Rebel, Deitz and UrUlenberger
on the labor committee. They arc san
guine that they will get clauses intro
duced in tho labor bill constituting work
man's syndicates and labor bureaus un
der a special minister of labor. They
are even hopeful of having the eight
hour principle recognized, although tficj
do not expect to have it uuulo effective.
A SPLIT PARTY.
The position of the Freisslnnlge party
is more than ever uncertain. Tho
tion of Schraeder as president of the
party’s committee In place of Richter in
dicates a widened rupture in tbe party.
The Freisslnnlge Zeitnng says that
Richter continues to preside over a com
mittee consisting of seven members,
Schraeder having received merely
honorary appointment to the presidency
of the committee of thirteen. Thu ex
planation doio not touch the fact that
nraa Annunciation is diminuhintr tho
strength of the party.
