BERLIN, June 1.-THE Emperor and
Empress, accompanied by the dowager
Empress Augusta and the Grand Duke and
Grand Duchess Of Baden and other royal
ties, visited the Jasper gallery this morn.
ing. While they were assembled around
the bier of the dead monarch, Chaplain
Koegcl offered brief prayer. Access TO
the gallery was prohibited to the public
until the royal party had departed.
On account OF the want of space, it has
not been possible to accede to the request
OF provincial authorities for permission to
attend the funeral services in the Fried
richskirsche. The only representatives OF
the Berlin authorities will DO the leading
officials in the ministry and committee OF
the chief church council The obsequies
will begin at 10 o'clock n. m.
The post-mortem examination was con-
fined to dissection OF the neck, larynx
and lungs. In the larynx, which was
found to have been destroyed by suppura-
ton, was a cavity about the size OF
clenched fist DR.. Mackenzie states, in
the report which he prepared at the COM
mand OF Emperor William, that the dis
ease was, beyond doubt, cancer Of the
larynx. He adds that the diagnosis was
rendered very difficult, as the disease at
tackled the cartilage OF the larynx at tie
outset, and aiterward developed chiefly in
the lower part Of the cartilage.
The National Zeit,tng says that the au-
topsy prove that the larynx was completely
destroyed by cancer, and that putrid bron-
chitis existed. There was also infamma-
ton OF the finer ramifcations of the bron-
chial tube into which ascent particles had
entered. The whole larynx was in state
OF suppuration and presented soft lumpy
mass with scarcely any trace OF cartilagin-
ous structure remaining. There was moth.
ing TO show the existence OF perforation OF
the walls separating the trache and oasepi-
gus. The choking sensation from which the
Emperor suffered during the last days Of
his life, which>was attributed TO such per-
foration, appears TO have been really due
TO n collapse OF the larynx, owing TO the
destruction OF the cartilage. The direct
cause OF death is given as paralysis OF the
lungs. The post norton examination
occupied one hour.
