Show Question Disturbing Europe. The future of Monaco, the question of the succession to the throne of the little principality, is a matter in which others beside the subjects of the present prince are interested. Prince Albert, who will be sixty-two In November, decided that his only son, Prince 'Louis, shall not succeed suc-ceed him, and favors a German prince belonging to the TJrach Wurttemberg line. A German prince reigning in Monaco would in the opinion of Prince Albert's subjects mean a German port on the Mediterranean. Such a possibility pos-sibility is of course distinctly displeasing dis-pleasing to France, which is cautiously cautious-ly taking steps to keep the German princeling out. The matter resolves itself into coming com-ing to terms with Prince Albert, who, as M. Blanc, the lessee of the Casino has learned, is a man with whom terms may be made at a price. |
