The nermmi OoTemmfnt'i Bcmoim
for the New Military Dill.
An erticle In the MllUar Wochcnblutt,
under the head of the "War of the Future,"
presents the Gorernment'e arguments
for tho new Military bill: "No one
expects that any part of * ?
II g.uwMranny will help ua on our west
front, for in the event of war facing east
and west Austria-IIAngary must concentrate
all her forces on the east front.
Italy has a very extended coaat line,
which her rnilronds absolutely follow.
A numlxsr of her largest cities lie ou or
close to tho sea, ami are open to attack
hy a hostile fleet. It is <juito possible
that she might be compelled to keep
back considerable for their defence, as
her fleet nlone is not strong enough to
hold its own against the French Mcdi
terrancan fleet. lint, nllowing for the
most favorable contingoncica, and tlint
her array can immediately, upon mobilization,
iako the field in the north, how
can it assist us on onr went front? A
direct invasion of French territory ucross
the Alps would doubtless nssiU us most
materially by compelling the French to
divide their forces. lint to cross the Alps
is no easy task, and could only he safely
undertaken if the command of the seas
were secured, and this Italy cannot he
assumed to possess. besides, it would
he a long and tedious operation. Asa
mentis of Italian co operation on our
west front a portion of the Italian army
would therefore have to he sent across
the Tyrol to join hands with us on our
western frontier. Hut this ofieriition
would have to he carried out on a single
line of railway, in many respects
unnduptcd for the purpose, and would
take at any rate so much time that before
it was accomplished the decisive blows
would have been struck elsewhere, tier
many can only bring a numerical suiieri
orlty to bear against the French by
massing the whole of her forces on her
front. In the ease of a war with two
fronts, this is simply out of the ipiestion.
The Russian army is so superior to that
of Austria Hungary that (Icriuaiiy must
put up part of her own army on her
eastern frontier, and then, far from lie
ing numerically superior to the French,
we should be inferior to them even allowing
for one-sixth of their forces be
ing immobilized on the Italian frontier.
Kvcii if events at first took the same
shape as hi |M7<), a few defeats in the
field would no long.ir lay the interior of
France open to invasion. The French
would retire behind their double line of
fortresses and intrenched camps to await
there the mobilization of their second
uj;uiiii^ IIIIU. ?i9 iiurmju i<? IMIMIIM I;
without having taken some of these
fortresses would he a sheer impossibility,
for without them wo should not have
command of u single railway line, and
without a railway line wo could not
transport the provision* ami ammunition
upon which a larjje army is nowadays
more than ever dependent. It is, there
fore, inconceivable that even undci
favorable conditions any part of our
western forces could he released at an
early date after the outbreak of hostilities
for operations against llussia."
How a llnttle Was Nearly Host.
At the battle of Woortli Lieut, (len.
von Obcrnit/., whon leading the Wurtcmherders
across the valley, received from
tlie Crown I'rlnee the* order, nfready
mentioned, to inarch on the roar of the
French, but shortly afterward the Prussian
ollicers coming from tin* battU
ra^iu^ on the plateau told him that re in
forcements were imperatively reiptired
there, and ur^ed him to come to thci
aid. A^ain the spirit of knowing "better
than one's betters" exereised its pernicious
influence, and although the power ol
determining when and whether re-inforce
meats shall be sent to any point of the
battlelield should above all others rest
absolutely with the supreme commander,
(len. von Obcrnit/. elected to judge for
himself, and on to the plateau he led his
troops. For yet two hours the now
utterly mixed up (Icrmun troops were
kept, from Froshwiller by the intrepid
bravery of their foes.
Hut now the toughness of the infant
try of the Fifth (icrmun Corps was about
to bo rewarded; the moment for thcii

find Forty-sixth, first, across the stream
?was close at hand. It was a 'rand re
vengej it was the splendid victory that
was to crown with laurels the men who
had sinned against them. While they
had been so stubbornly holding on to the
vine-clad slopes, time had been given foi
the gradually closing round of Mae
Malum's 45,0(10 men by the creator portion
of the overwhelming host of their
enemies. And now the f reneh, attacked
from the north, south and east, at last
broke, and, covered by a small rearguard,
tied away out of touch and sight of the
victors through the gap so generously
left open to ihem by that independent
Lieutenant, (ion. von Obornitz.
The Germans pained their victory by
sheer weight of numbers, and the sup
port, given to ther infantry bv an artillery
overwhelmingly superior in number of
guns, technical efficiency, and tactical
employment to that of their opponents.
The French owed their defeat to- the
mediocrity of their commander. Against
critics ami commentators on the arts of
soldiers in the field, it is sometimes alleged
that they are "wise after the
event as regards the battle of \Vnorth,
ft is only wisdom of tIris kind that the
leading soldiers who took part in it can
find any ground of justification for their
nroceedincrs. Well micht a German of
fleer of tlx* very highest rank say, as he
afterwards did: M\Ve wore witliin an
nee of losing the hattle; hut the French
did not know it, and I hope they never
may." Probably they know it now.?

which ho uses at tbo table, end whioh,
to a certain extent, aupplies tho loss of
his loft baud. Ho is said to bo a rerj
good shot, and ho handles tho gun very
woll. "
Ho has a bcautifurnomo and ho is
cry foud of his children. He has flvo
children, all healthy, bright and good
looking, and the little Crown Priuco,
who is now nb3Ut ten, is an olHccr in the
German army, and he puts on as many
airs as his father. lie often rides with
his father, and his father makes him
obey him and saluto him just as ono of
his soldiers. When ho is at lioinc, how*
ever, ho is a fathor among his children,
and thoy crawl all orcr him aud play
with him just as though they were
American babios in an Amoricau home.
Ho has good rules as to their training.
They riso with the sun aud go to bed
about seven o'clock. They have prayers
and thoy have their schooling just liko
other childreu, though tho oldest boys
aro under tho care of a military tutor
and are waited upon by men servants.
Tho two youngest nave an English governess
and aro taught to speak English
and French as well a' German. The
Emperor pays a giinit tMMj of attention to
their rocitutions and bet devotes a groat
of his timo to tho subjoctof tho common
Bchools of the empire.
The Kaiser is a hard-working man and
his daily lifo is as full almost as that of
a newspaper reporter. He gets up ovory
morning at 7 o'clock and takes a cold bath
and at 7:30 ho and the Empress breakfast
together. His breakfast is a substantial
ono and nftur it ho goes to his
ofHcu and looks over his mall, no gots
a vast number of lettors, which aro
weeded out by his prlvato secretary, and
matters of auv imnortanco aro roforrod
directly to liiin. 11c passes upon things
quickly und decides most affairs on the
spur of the moment. Ho has n routine
for the rest of the day after his mail and
his time is laid out for weeks iu advance,
llo keeps a strict account of his time and
ho ullots just so much to cxorciso, so
much to umusomont and so much to
businos*. His exorcise is takou iu onnection'with
busid&ss antf-ho is as rogular-as
clock work about everything. Ho
tukos his luncheon about 2 o'clock, aud
that is the ordinary German lunchoou of
soup, a roost and a dessert with vegetables,
and now and then with lish
thrown in. Tho childron sit down with
the Emperor and tho Empress at lunchcon
and shortly after it is over tho Emperor
again goes to work. Ho spcuds a
great doal of time in tho saddle, and
scarcely a day pasi\os thnt ho doesn't go
to visit somo part of his army. Ho lias
his dinner at 0 o'clock and this is a
full dress affair. After it he drops the
cares of Stato for a time und romps
with his children and now aud thcu
tukos a little orerciso. At 10 o'clock he
has his suppor aud aftor this ho works
about au hour iu his study and then goes
to bod, and ho makes it a rulo to get

Ho is very straight iu his bearing,
and ho is, I judgo, about live foot ton

Tbe Kaiser i? a very religious man.
Ho goes to church, aucl he has services
' iu the opeu air with his troops and ho
| put down gambling iu his regiment when
t ho was iu tho army before ho became
Emperor. Ho is doing all he can to develop
the moral condition of his people,
and with all his idiosyncrasies ho has
many good points. I understand that
ho is a very genial man in private and
that ho throws off his dignity when he is
off duty. He has no frills or furbelows
about him at such times, and his whole
face lights up when lie talks to his
friends. He has a way of wiuking at
people in tho "party during-hia conversation,
and when he shakos hands he shows
that he means it. He is full of pcrsoual
magnetism, and though it is hard for a
king to have a friend, I believe that tho
"Little Kaisor," as ho is cdled, has his
frieuds hero in Berlin. His best friends
are men of solidity and nerve, and as for
the Emperor himself, there is no doubt
of his having his full share of courage.
He showed this when ho dismissed Bismnrck
and took the reins of Government
iuto his own hands.
