PRINCE BISMARCK, T3w Deposed Chancellor, Map Regain Ascendency Orer HU Former Pupil and Protege—A Prediction that the Aged Statesman Will Soon be Called I'poa to Steer the Ship of State Through Impending Breaker*. Berlin, April 6.—The representative of the United Press while at Friedrichsruhe on April 1, on the oeeasion of the birthday of Prince Bismarck, had a prolonged, conversation with the celebrated German artist, Franz Lenbacb, who is one of Prince Bismarck’s oldest and most trusted friends. Jlerr L enbach showed the correspondent his Uitestgpil painting of Prince Bismarck. It is * fine work, the eye having a speaking expression that is marvelous, lie also exhibited the last portrait, which he painted from life. ,of the old kaiser, Wilhelm L The picture is now hanging in the smoking room at Friedrichsruhe, and is so placed that Prince Bismarck, sitting iu his easy chair, j with, his accustomed long-stemmed pips, can obtain the best possible view of the features of his old master. Prince Bismarck passed much of his time daily in this , room. The guests who visited the ex-chancellor oh the occasion of his last birthday concurred in the opinion that the kaiser's present to "the prince, a photograph of the imperial group encased in a bronze frame, the whole being about a foot long, signified almost anything that the observer of the gift might surmise, but really gave no indication of the kaiser's feelings. It was remarked that the features of the notable persons viewing the photograph made rapid changes from cold to warmth and vice, versa. Count von Waldersee, after meeting the prince, expressed his pleasure at seeing the ex-elraueellor so strong and bright. The semi-official press are conjecturing that the emperor is again warming towards Prince Bismarck, and a ret accordingly recurring to praises of the prince's genius and services to the empire. g^i'he Cologne Gazette which recently published an article referring to the pitiful sight of the decayed chancellor, stumbling, full of complaints, behind the state chariot, now declares that the period of antagonism toward him is over and that calumny has been silenced. “liis worst enemies" the Gazette continues. “are ready* to admit the graudeur of this colossal historic figure and the heart of the whole of Germany yearns toward him." The newspapers do not accept any criticism of the prince dealing with the ex-chancellor as belonging to past history, and* hold that jt is probable that lie will still be called upon to guide ti|e state through a crisis. The German explorer Eugene S. Wolff, in conversation with the United Press correspondent at Friedriehsruhe on Prince 'Bismarck's birthday, declared that the day was coming when confusion and entanglement would reach such a pass that the emperor would be unable to help himself except by reading Prince/ Bismarck to' the chancellorship. “It would be a bad day.for Germany,” he said, “if the prince is not alive to avert a catastrophe.” , llerr Wolff expressed the opinion that England would prevent both Germany and France from makingauy further extension of their influence in Africa. ATTEMPTED BURGLARY That May be Followed by I.yuchings 1 the Perpetrators are Caught. Chicago, April 6.—A dispatch from Fort Dodge.

INDIANA WHEAT. ▲ General Falling Off In Acreage an<JJ Condition. Indianapolis, lnd., April 6.—During j the last two weeks the Indiana bureau of statistics has been collecting winter | wheat statistics from the 4.016 town- j ships in the state. Reports have been j received from 593 townships, repre- j seating every county but. one in the state, and the result is a decided falling off both in acreage and condition as compared with last year. The general average for the state is 90.4 and the condition is 71.7. The principal cause given for the falling off in the condition of the crop is that in many places the drougnt last fall retarded the growth of the young plant and caused it to enter the winter in bad shape, which resulted in its injury by alternate freezing and thawing. March weather was very injurious to Indiana wheat where it was not protected bysnow. MINISTER TERRELL Arrives In New York from Constantinople, Bat Hm Nothin- to Snjr. , New York.
