the Retired List •
Berlin, Dec. 2.—The *pejch from the
throne has been finally revised, and Is
In the form In which (he emperor will
read It to the deputies next Wednes
day. It oontulns the usual declarations
that Germany enjoys friendly relations
with 'the powers and that the aspira
tions of all Europe seem to point to
the maintenance of peace. A sympa
thetic reference to Alexander HI.'s
death Is about the only noteworthy
feature of the paragraphs concerning
foreign affairs. Touching domestic poli
tics,, the emperor wlR emphasize tlio
necessity that the government be
armed against the cause of revolution,
and that the full strength of the luw
bo exerted to oontrel the eoclallstlc
agitation.
He will express hone **»* **—
stag will give the government the
needed support to these ends. He will
mention Dr. Miguel’s ihiuuciai reforms
as a new attempt to place the finances
of the empire on a stable basis. Judi
cial reforms, the proposals to extend
workingmen's Insurance and measures
to relieve the agricultural distress will
be alluded to briefly. The recent min
isterial crisis, which everybody would
like to have explained, will be Ignored.
The question of passing a memorial
resolution concerning Alexander III.
'has stirred much bad feeling among
tlie Imperial deputie-. Eugene Richter
as usual, opposes anything that the
government advocates, and says In his
Freissinnlge Zeltung that the resolu
tion will be against all precedents, as
the deaths of foreign sovereigns here
tofore have been merely announced In
the relchstog In case It was la session.
Whether the government will try to
honor the czar's memory despite the
socialistic democrat*, radicals nnd
Poles remains In doubt. The s i.-lalUtic
democrats and radicals are alio In
league to defeat th» election of Here
von Levetrow to La president of the
relchstag. As In the previous session
the officers of the house will be: ilerr

every night, lie was taking a ahvti
rust lu his own room on the last night
whuu Dr. Senwenninger called him to
her deathbed. A correspondent men
tions lu the Neuste NUehncUteu that
the princess never heard her husband
speak In the relchstag. “It would be
too palnfal," she said "to ace him light
ing men who wish him evil." In times
when rumor* of plots to asawsnato her
husband were especially numerous she
was over fearful of an uttempt to
poison him, and prepared aN his food
with her own bands. Tho ooreespond-
enou between them lua been reprinted
to show their mutual devotion. Wher
ever Bismarck was. he would close tho

goodnight. He would seud her a bit ot
