POLITICS AT A BANQUET.
Emperor William's Malice Shown For
Two Political Opponents.
Berlin, Sept. 7.—Emperor William
made a sen.sat.unnl speech last evening
at the stale hammer, which followed
the military manoeuvres about South
Altcubcrg, at which entertainment the
liras of U'urtemhurg was the pr.nclpal
guest. The emperor hud previously
struck from the list of guests the names
of Count von Mirbach and Count von
Kaultz, as well as those of Gens. Kl.t-
zuig and Saudltten, hut the names of
the two latter were subue picutly re-
btoied ttpou the list.
Euipcivr William's act plainly tuarks
h'.s displeasure at the attitude of the
pentons untued upon the agrarian ques
tion. Tits Is coufirmed by the fact that
the emperor decorated Count von Duen-
hoCt with the order of the lied Eagle.
Count von DoenhoB, It 'fill he remem
bered, In May last was expelled from
tlie Conservative union because lie
voted for the Itusso-Geruian commer
cial treaty In the reVltst ig. Soon af

approval of the oount's action and he
has uuw made ills pustllon dearer l>y
