Rise of Buelow is Described; Predecessor Virtual Recluse, Willinm Asserts in Memoirs

W ft V WWW a a BY WILHELM HOHENZOLLERN ja me aay alter trince iionemone s tfarewell, the man summoned by me as his successor, Count Buloy, secre'tary of state for foreign affairs arrived. -His choice for the post waa eminently fitting, because he was thoroughly cognizant of our foreign policy and, especially, our relations with England which policy was becoming constantly livelier and more complicated and because he had already proved himself a skillful orator and ready debater in the Reichstag. The fact that the second of these qualities was lacking in his predecessor, had often been painfully noticeable. When Prince Hohenlohe's intention to retire became known in the imperial council, the Bavarian ambassador at Berlin, Count Lerchfield, very pointedly remarked to me that for Heaven's sake, I -was not to choose . another South German, since South Germans were not fitted for the leading post at Berlin; North Germans were naturally better able to fit in, nd therefore, it would be better for the empire to select a North German. I had acquainted myself personally "with Bulow for a long time, ever since the period of his ambassadorship at Rome, and his work as secretary of state. Then I had often visited him at his home and held many a conference "with him in his garden. He came into 'closer relationship with me on my i journey to the far east, where, in col operation with the ambassador, FreiIherr Marschall, he assisted me in get. tting into personal touch with the lead iing men of the Turkish government. ! Hence, the relations of the new chanicellor with me were already begun. and to a certain extent, established. i since we had for years discussed all (political problems and spheres. Moreover, he stood much nearer to me in atre than his predecessors, most of whom could have been my grand father. He was the first "young chancellor" of Germany. And this made our common task easier for both of us. When I was in Berlin, scarcely a day went by without my takiDg a long morning walk with the chancellor in the garden of the imperial chancellor's palace, during which outstanding business was cleared up and problems of actuality discussed. I often had a meal with him and always found at his table, where I was most hospitally received by the count, his amiable wife, and a group of the most interesting men, in choosing whom the count was a master. He was likewise unsurpassed in skillfully conducting the conversation and the witty handling of the various topics that arose. To me it was always a pleasure to be in the company of the chancellor and enjoy bis bubbling wit, to exchange views at the table with many professors, savants and artists, as well as government officials of all sorts, in informal; unofficial -intercourse and stimulating exchange of ideas. The count was an excellent narrator of anecdotes, drawn both from books and his own personal experience, which he told in several languages. He liked to tell stories of the days when he was a diplomat, especially about his stay at St. Petersburg. Bulow a Disciple of Bismarck. The count's father was an intimate friend of Prince Bismarck and had been one of his closest co-workers. Young Bulow had also begun his career under the great chancellor; he had been brought up on Bismarckian ideas and traditions and strongly iu-. fluenced by them, but neverineies.. , j liad not adhered to them to such an extent as to lose his independence. In the course of one of the first talks which I had with Bulow as imperial chancellor, he informed himself concerning my ideas of how best to handle the English and have dealings with them. I told him that I considered absolute frankness the most important thing in dealing with England, rnd Englishmen; that the Englishman, in presenting his point of view, and working for his own interests, was inconsiderate to the point of brutality, for which reason he thoroughly understood anvbody who acted similarly toward him; that there must be no f laying the diplomatic game, or "finessing," with an Englishman, because it made him distrust those with whom he was dealing and suspect that they were not honest and wished secretly to cheat him; that such devious mathods could be successful only in dealing with Latin and Slavic nations that once the Englishman had become suspicious, there was nothing more to be clone with him, despite the most hon-cyc-d words and most obliging concessions; that the only advice, therefore that I could give the chancellor was' that he confine himself entirely to straiehtforwordness in his English policy "i eaid this with particular emphasis, since "finessing" was especially fiesr to tne diplomatic character of" Count Bulow and had become second nature to hint. I also took occasion, during this tal to wrrrn the chancellor against Holstein, In Fpite of my warning which was merely a repetition of that rivn me bv Bismarck, Bulow work ed a great deal, or was obliged to work

with Holstein. This remarkable man had been able gradually, especially sinec the time that the foreign office had been, so to SDeak. orphaned by Bismarck's retirement, to create for himself a position that became steadilly more influental and to maintain it under three chancellors with such skill, that he was considered indt spensible. Holstein was unquestionably pos sessed of great shrewdness, seconded by a phenomenal memory and a cer tain taint for political combinations, which, to be sure, often became a hobby in his case. His position also was based largely on the fact that he was looked upon in many quarters especially among the older officials, as the bearer of the Bismarckian tra ditions," the man who upheld these m the teeth of "the young master. His importance rested, above all, on his wide personal knowledge in the entire domain of the foreign service Since he wielded, on account of this, an authoritative influence on all pro posals relative to the appointment of the younger officials, it may be easily understood why he. little by little, had obtained for himself a dominating posflion at the foreign office. But he sought more and more to obtain at the some time, a decisive influence in the conduct of a foreign policy: he had, in fact, become the guiding spirit. both of the foreign office and of German foreign policy. Holstein's Secret Power. The serious thing about this was that he exerted his far-reaching influence entirely from under cover and avoided all official responsibility as an adviser. He preferred to remain in form there. He refused every responsible post many stood open to him every honorary title, every promotion. He lived in complete seclusion. For a long time I tried in vain to become personally acquainted with him, for which purpose I used to invite him to meals, but Holstein declined every time. Only once, in the course of many years, did he consent to dine with me at the foreign office, and it was characteristic of him that, whereas on this occasion all the other gentlemen present wore full evening dress, he appeared in a frock coat, and excused himself on the plea that he had no dress coat. The secrecy with which he surrounded himself in his work, so as not to be held responsible for it, became apparent also at times in the character of memorials drawn up by him; they were unquestionably ingenious and attractive, but often as involved and ambigious as the oracle of Delphi; there were occasions when, after a decision had been based on the contents of one of these document. Kerr von Holstein would prove to a nicety that he meant exactly the opposite of what had been thought. I considered it a serious matter thai an irresponsible counselor should bring to bear such a powerful influenc, especially as he did so from under cover and, hence, in doing it, eluded the officials who were the responsible parties. Often, especially in the von Richtofen era, it happened that I would advise a foreign ambassador to discuss some political question, which he had taken up with me, with tho secretary of state, and he would reply: "J'en parlerai avec mon ami Holstein." (I shall speak about it with my lriend Holstein.) The fact alone that an official of the foreign office dealt with foreign ambassadors, going over tne nea(j 0f jjjS superiors, did not seem right to me; but that he should be tubbed by these foreigners "friend" seemed to me to go - beyond what I deemed advisable. Matters had, in fact, developed gradually to such a stage that Holstein conducted a good part of our foreign affairs. To be sure, he still listened to the chancellor in connection with them, but what the emperor thought or said about foreign affairs was rather unimportant. If things turned out

State successfully, the forein office reaped the reward; if things went wrong then it was the fault of the "impulsive young master." In spite of all this, Bulow, too, apparently thought Herr Von Holstein indispensible at first; he worked together with him for a long time, until at last he, too, found unbearable the pressure which this strange man exerted on everybody. To Herr von Tschirchky, during his tenure of office as secretary of state, belongs the merit of finally bringing the unendurable situation to a head. On being questioned by me, he declared that he considered it impossible that Herr von Holstein remain at hi3 post any longer since he was embroiling the whole foreign office, seek ing to eliminate him, the secretary of state, entirely, and creating all kinds of obstacles, likewise, for the chan cellor. Dismissed and an Enemy. .Thereupon I ordered Herr von Tschirschkq to prepare the way for the dismissal of Herr von Holstein which afterward took place, with tho approval of the chancellor, after tho latter had recovered from the serious break-down in health which he had suffered meanwhile. Herr von Holstein himself showed what manner of man he was by going at once after his dismissal, to Herr Harden and placing himself at the latter's disposal for the campaign against the emperor. The vear 1901 gave Count Bulow plentiful opportunity to show and as sert himself in dealings with England. Count Bulow still believed strongly in the Bismarckian theory of having "two irons in the fire," i. e., in making friendly agreements with another country, while always remaining on good terms with Puissia in which he received support from the many pre tended adherents of Bismarck. From the midst of the jubilee celebration of the two hundredth coronaLion anniversary, I was called to the death bed of my grandmother, Queen Victoria, by a dispatch announcing to me the condition of the queen.

As my carriage drove out at a trot irom the railway station a nlainlv dressed- man stepped forward from the closely packed crowd standing there in absolute silence, to the side or the carriage, bared his head, and said: "We thank you. Kaiser." The Prince of Wales, later Edward VII. added: "That is what they all think, and they will never forget this coming of yours."! Nevertheless, they did for get it, and quickly. After the queen had ouietlv breathed her last in my arms, the curtain feli off for me upon many memories of childhood. Her death ' signified the close of an epoch in English history, and in Germany's relations with England. I now got in touch, as far as possible, with prominent personages, and noted everywhere a thoroughly sympathetic, friendly spirit, which made no secret of the wish for good relations with Germany. At the farewell banquet, impromptu s-peeches were made by King Edward VII and myself, which were cordial in tone and content, and did not fail to make an impression on. their hearers. After the meal the English ambassador at Berlin clasped my hand and said that my speech had touched all his follow countrymen's hearts, because what I said was sincere and simple, as was fitting for an Englishman; that the speech must at once be made public, since it would have an effect throughtout the country, which was grateful for my coming; and that this would be useful to the relations between the two countries. I answered that it was a matter for the British government and the king to decide, that personally, I had no objections to having the speech made public. Nevertheless, it was not made public, and the British people never learned of my words, which were the sincere expression of njy sentiments and thoughts. In another talk later or. with me at Berlin, the same ambassa dor deeply regretted this, and was unable to say what was the reason for the omission. In concluding my remarks on my stayin England, I can not pass over the fact that a portion of the German press was unfortunately lacking both in tactful appreciation of the grief of the English royal family and pcple, as well as of the obligations which my family relationship and political con siderations imposed upon me.
