warmth and as a purely perfunctory recognition recogni-tion of the traditional sentiments existing isting between the imperial houses G Germany and Russia The fact too that he replied in the French language instead of the German willi which his h-is as familiar as the kaiser himself is i construed by the officials as having been intended a a check to Germanys aims at closer relations with Russia

the luncheon the czar and Chancellor Chan-cellor Von HohenJohe were closeted together for a hour I is not positively posi-tively known what matters were discussed dis-cussed but there is a strong belief that the action to be taken by Russia and Germany in connection with the Turkish Turk-ish question was consideered at length In the evening a gaJa performance was given at the Stadt theater The play given was the second pant of the Milataer Fromm and it was very amusing Emperor William shook with laughter and even the czar smiled at the absurdities of some of the positions posi-tions This
