REDUCE WARSHIPS Germany Will Shorten Age of Battleships. TWENTY INSTEAD OF 25 YEARS Prices in Kaiser's Empire Rise Last Winter Meat Was High This Year Wheat Will Soar to High Point, Caus ing Rise In Bread. BERLIN, Oct. I). According to the Frankf inter Zeitung the first demand in eonneetion with the naval program which will be kid before tho Relchtng this' full will be a proposal for redwing tho "age limit for battleships from 25 to 20 years. "This measure," it is added, "will, of course, inereoso the rate of construction of a few ships." For the rest, the navy law will not be altered, if only because Admiral von Tirpitz, the secretary of state for the Imperial marine is pledged to the principle that one battleship and two cruiser ought to be laid down every year. The navy estimates will have to be materially increased in order to cover additional expenditures for guns and torpedoes, and, above all, in consequence of the' increased displacement of the new large ships of the navy. Naval works and fortifications at the mouth of the Elbe and along the cost of the North Sea will also have to be provided for. But the financial difllrultic of the empire admittedly hamper the realiza tion of these scheme. According to official return, published by the Im perial Cazctte, ordinary recurring ex penditure for the navy during the financial year KHI8 exceeded the esti mates by nearly $3,700,000, and non recruiting expenditure showed a similar excess of $110,000. If last winter in Germany was one of dear meat there is only too much reason to tear that the coming neason will prove one of dear bread, fbe prices of wheat in the open market have risen 30 per cent as compared with last September, and 22 per cent as compared with April. Similarly, rye, which is well known, is the staple bread-flour among the middle and jKiorer classes, bus rien 30 per cent as compared with the price ruling 12 montlu ago and 20 per cent a compared with April. The corn yield by last year's harvest wan exported from (id-many in large quantities and supplies fiVjin that source are now ex tremely short. This export was followed by a very severe winter and a lute har vest, and the wretched weather of this summer and early autumn has lurtaer poi)ed the crops. The outlook k in deed, unpromising. Finally, there exists great fear that the potato crop will be short. Emperor William's complaint in his speech at Mumtter that during the course of his reign many jieople had wittingly and unwittingly caused him bitter pain has created a feeling of un easiness in various quarters. When a personage in his majesty's exalted posi tion publicly laments the fact that he has been misunderstood, those who have followed his lead are apt to wonder where they aiV. it is even suggested that as the emperor went thus far, he might have become more explicit. That hi majesty should ardently desire the confidence of his people is held to bo in the highest degree natural, but it is pointed out that acts .not motives, de termine public sentiment and popular judgments. It is an inseparable acci dent of the form of constitutional gov ernment which prevails in Germany that personal misunderstandings and misun derstandings should play a part in af fairs of state. It is recalled to the em peror's credit that his majesty has not attempted to solve the social question "by the sword," but, on the other hand, he has so closely identified himself with the policy of the government against, for example, the social democracy, that some misunderstanding as to the im perial motives in the first instance was bound to arise. The Frankfurter Zeitung boldly in quires: "Has the emperor himself not often given occasion for active criti cisms?" In his public utterances he has placed the military upon a plane higher than that of the civilian element, he' has bidden the discontented spirits shake the dust of Germany from off their feet, he has depreciated serious works of art, he has spoken lightly of the Reichstag, and has branded the so cial democracy as a band of traitors and enemies of their country, which, accord ing to him, they disown. Journalists his majesty described as "the failures of public schools." The Frankfurt journal, which enumerates these utterances calm ly und dispassionately, ventures the opinion that If the emperor had not been born In the purple he might have become it Journalist, "and in time assuredly Ij'ulte a good Journalist." Today, however, the Journal adds, the emperor would bethink himself before passing hasty Judgment of tills kind even Jf his major's opinions were un changed. As men grow older they be come less and less Inclined to engage In recriminations, and the Emperor William lias not remained young. Tho propaganda for the admission of women to the German universities makes rapid progress. The efforts of lady students themselves threaten to take by. a-uult the last citadels, the gates of which ure closed against them these are the 12 universities of Prussia. Everywhere else girl students aro ad mitted to follow the courseIn the Ba varian universities, at Munich, Krlangen and Wurtxlmrg. In those of the Duchy of linden, at Frllmrg, Heidelberg and Tubingen and even Thuringe, at Jena and in Saxo nt l.oip-lc. One hundred and sixty professors of the 1'rustlan universities demand their free admis sion. The German girl students are di vided almost equally into students of medicine and students of philosophy, philology and history. Europe during the last few weeks has lx-en an armed camp. The autumn maneuvers of the great powers are now finishing and probably lietween 300.000 and 4000 men have been under arms. The following particulars of the forces in the field will give a general Idea of the enormous scale on which the train ing of the continental armies is based. Germany Tw army corps, 100,000 men; cavalry, fouh division; pioneer maneuver and siege operation, France Two army corps. 00,000 men; cavalry, two schemes.
