His Majesty Frederick III, King of Prussia. The telegraphic intelligence received by me allows of the assumpti,a that the reigning emperor and king will leave San Reno to morrow, and arrive in due course in Berlin"
 Providing for the propagation of the reichs- tag, Prince Bismarck said: II addressed to the emperor a request that he should sign the decree with the first letters of his name. He replied that he believed himself able to write his name in full. Consequently this, the historical document bearing his last sigma ,ture, lies before nle. Under the existing cir .cumstances, assuming that the reichstag might not wish to separate just now, but rather remain in session until the arrival of his majesty, 1 do not make any use of the imperial authorization beyond depositing it in the archives as historical document.
 'sIt does not become me to give from this official place expression to the personal feel ings with which the decease of my master, the departure of the first German emperor from our midst fills me- There is, in fact, no need of it, for the feelings which animate me live in the heart of every German. But there is one thing which believe should not con- ceal from you. It does not concern my senti- ments, but my experiences. It is the fact that amid the vistations with which the ruler just departed lived to see his house afflicted, there were two circumstances which filled him with satisfaction and comfort. One of them was the effect that the sufferings of his only son and successor, our present sover- -eign lord, had produced throughout the world not only in Germany, but in every part of the world I received this very day from New York telegram of sympathy, showing what confidence the dynasty of the imperial house has acquired among all nations. This is the legacy which the emperor's long reign bequeaths ito the German people, The conf dence which his dynasty has won will be transferred to the nation, despite anything that has happened"
 The Reichsanzeiger announces that the chancellor read in the reichstag yesterday a telegram from San Remo from Emperor Frederick III thanking the reichstag ard the ministry for "the devotion and loyalty with which you all served the Emperor Wilhelm. I rely upon your assistance" the telegram continues, lin the arduous charge upon me. leave here tomorrow" The dispatch is signed simply Frederick"
 The emperor has also forwarded by tele graph the following ordinance to the minis ters of state concerning the observance ot public mourning: ''With regard to the na. Monal mourning heretofore customary we will not order any provision; but will rathez 1oave each German to find his own expres- sdon of affi iction at the death of such a mon. arch, and to determine how long he will ab stain from participating in public entertain. ments"
 The authorities of Berlin have begun in quiries in the matter of the publication of premative announcement of the emperor's death Thursday evening, and it is stated that the offenders will be vigorously prosecuted il sufficient evidence can be obtained upon which to base legal action. Among the many rumors circulating in the German capital con corning the new emperor is suggestion tha' he may depute Prince William to act for hin in state matters upon his arrival at Berlin.
