The German-Minister has replied ring that he had no intention of siriklag the students, but li the whip did in fact touch them, he was very sorry and ready to apologies. The Police authorlifes have referred the reply to the Foreign Minister to-day,

As a question was asked respecting this matter to the House of Representatives, it is said: that the serales of segotiations will be reported i to the House and the German Minister will write a letter of apology. It has been rumoured that the German Minister w-uld go home in conse quence of the trouble. This is Incorrect.
