Interbock had been murdered. The
scene was sensational in the extreme
and women swooned, but the officers
removed the coffin and the remains
and post norton was held. This con-
firmed in every respect the allegations
of the police They said that
Interbock had died from injuries
inflicted during a fight in a
restaurant. He was accustomed to visit
the place, and on the night preceding
his death, he was there. He became
involved in dispute and his opponent
beat him until he was insensible and
then called cab, had the unconcious
man placed within and dumped on the
sidewalk in front of his residence. 1t is
regarded very strange that none of the
many personal friends of the dead man
ever suspected that the death was I'M
natural, and the entire case has been
worked out voluntarily by the police.
Every one interested is now sure that
the case will prove murder, and I'M
doubtedly succeed in arresting and con-
victing the slayer.
Princess Lid Dolgorouki, daughter OF
the late Cars morganatic widow, has
caused quite sensation in Berlin by
appearing Jas public performer
on the violin in garden concerts and
exhibitions. Her conduct has dis
gusted her family and society friends.
The princess, however, is an immense
card for her managers. and she never
fails to draw crowded houses. She
seems to be charmed with the energy
and excitement of her new life and says
she plays in public simply to exhibit
her disdain for the conventionalities
and prejudices of aristocratic life.
Apropos of the German dispute over
the right of the Duke of Cumberland to
succeed to the government of the
Grand Duchy of Brunswick; the
Vossische Zeitung demands the passage
of law excluding all foreign princes
from succeeding to. the throne in any of
the German States. In an elabo-
rate argument for the passage
of the law the VossiSche Zeitung
points with special force to the
Coburg Gotha case, in which the Duke
of Edinburgh, it says, must be excluded
for the reason, among others, that the
succession in the German States cannot
any longer be regulated by inviolable
family laws, but must be harmonized
with the higher political aims OF the
| German empire.
The Russian report that the Amer
vi OCC4 W
his suite, is not credited at the British
Foreign Office. Couriers from Cabul
arrive at the British posts on the AT
CHAN frontier twice week regularly.
In the latest reports brought to
the British agents at these posts, there
was no news of an actual disorder in
| Afhanistan, but the general situation in
| the Ameer's dominions had been de-
scribed in all the recent reports as one
betokening danger to his authority.
This has been attributed to the discon-
! tent among the tribal chiefs over the
Ameer's failure to distribute among
them the sums of money which ths
| chiefs believed he received from Ear
/ Dufferin, Viceroy of India, in the re
| cent durbar at Rawul-Pindi, with which
to substitute the Afghan tribes.
i The chiefs have all along felt certain
that Abdurrahman was entrusted will
a large sum for their benefit and o
their tribesmen, and they have chafeC
under the failure to get what they ex
pected as their shares Itwould not b,
surprising if some of these disappointed
chief should have resolved to adop
murder as revenge upon the Amer.
