How the News of Emperor Frederick s
Death Was Received in Savannah.
The Germans of this city were unwilling
to believe the press bulletins yesterday an
nouncing the death of Emperor Frederick
Ill, although they saw the MORNING NEWS
flag at half-mast; but when at o'clock
Acting German Consul Mahn received an
official dispatch confirming the earlier
MORNING NEWS bulletin, and the consulate
flag was lowered to half-mast they realized
that twice within the year Germany has
lost its ruler.
There was not so much grief manifested
over Frederick's death as over that of En-
peror Wilhelm, his father In fact the
succession of William II. as Emperor
OF Germany and King of Prussia
Is very fav orably accepted by them. The
martial spirit Of William II. is more in har
mony with the German sentiment Frederick
was pacific, they think, and they were not
at all pleased with the manner of Queen Vic
tOria's visit to her daughter, the wife Of the
late Frederick, and some of them think the
English custom should not have been car
ried into Germany. of sending funkeys in
advance but that she ought to have thought
German welcome and German hospitality,
under Teutonic customs, were good enough.
While they regret the death Of Emperor
Frederick, they will not deeply regret the
fact that the English woman is no longer
empress.
Others express some doubts as to the
future peace of Europe, believing that the
new emperor will not stand any foolish
ness from France or any other foreign
power. William the Second" said one
German, will preserve the absolute
autonomy of the German empire, and
brook no overt act against his country, and
Bismarck will find him hard to manage"
