A Berlin cabteof Saturday says: After a sharp ancl blttr struggle the army bill was passid by the Reichstag, this afternoon, by a majority of 16. The vote stood 201 for the measure to 185 against. Count von der Deckon, a leader of tho Guebdis made a strong speech against the bill, bas ing his objections to It on the theory that it would have the same deplorable consequences that follow: the war of 1866 between Hanover an! I russia, when, he declared, the legitimist feeling of a grea. section of Germany had been violated The victory of the government was dearly purchasr d. The Polish contingent froit the province of Posen held the fate of th bill in its bunds. The Poles demanded threstitution of tho Polish language in th iocal courts and public om'ccs, and contro of schools by Catholic clergy. As the) controls nineteen votes they were in a position to place tho government in a minority of twenty-two and, plunge Germany into another electoral struggle. The government agreed to grant all the Poles asked, and the concession was made directly b tho Kaiser himself. Thus tho votes of the purely German members of the Reichstag were overborne by the representatives of a conquered provineepas hostile to tiermany as Alsace-Lorraine, but hating Russia more Intensely than Germany. Th National a well as the Protestant feel inc of the country will be deeply hurt by tin concession to a foreign element in th country, and the granting of tho demands of the Catholic clergy. The opposition claims that tho majorit) is so small that the government has no cause for exultation, but nevertheless the government does exult. The Emperor is delighted at the passag' of the Mil. and rumor has it that he will confer upon Chancellor Von Caprivi the dignity of a prince. WORLD'S WlifcAi wwr MlORT.
