REICHSTAG (SCENES. BERLIN. August 11
The German high tarill bill had a stormy passage in the Reichstag, the .Socialists organising a continuous pandemonium. The Chancellor explained the high tariff was vital to the preservation of Germany’s industry. High till-ill's must be fought by high tariffs. l|eav\ duties would be valuable lor the purpo-es of negotiating trade agreements with other nations, but lie only succeeded in his explanation by using his bands like a megaphone. Because of the Socialist.- mustered at the TriIhi no hurling insults, the Deputy Speaker ordered one after another to quit, the Chamber. They refused till they were ejected by the Prussian police. There was great violence when four were named simultaneously. Seventeen police'entered, and then the entire party satirically goose stepped from the Chamber.
