HOPE HAS DESERTED HIS BEDSIDE.
MICROSCOPIC EXAMINATION BY
PROF. WALDMEYER.
Only a Question of Time-The Herr to the
Throne Doomed Arrival OF Prince
William at San Reno.

tCopyrigJ,ted 1855 by the N. Y. associated Press.
BERLIN, March 3.-The imperial fam
| lily has ceased to hope for therecovery Of
the Crown Prince. The first results OF
the microscopic examination by Pro.
fessor Waldmeyer, as communicated to
| the Emperor, are unfavorabie, disclosing
/ traces of cancer in the pus arising from
/ the necrosis of the cartilage of the
| larynx. The full official report OF
Prof. Waldmeyer will he delayed until
DIR. Recklinghausen makes an analysis.
! DIR. Ziemmsen will probably also be re-
| quested to examine the pus. Apart
| from the results of the examination
court dispatches confirm the progress OF
symptoms tending toward fatal issue.
The occasional appearance of improve
| ment is followed by a renewal of the
gravest indications. Thus on Thursday,
the Crown Prince seemed stronger and
in brighter spirits. but during the follow
ing night he was worse.
The newspaper reports from San Reno
conflict While the National Zeituag
says the patient is sleeping well, that his
spirits and appetite are better and that
he holds himself erect, the BorseR
Courier and Norddentsche ZeituRg on
the same day report that he had bad
night. The decrease in his strength has
caused saddening change in his APP
pearance, and has transformed him from
a robust into an aged and debilitated
man, vino is obviously suffering. The
conflict of reports does not weaken the
fact, based upon absolute information,
that in the highest official quarters every
| nope has been abandoned of his recov-
cry. No immediate crisis is expected,
but it is recognized that sudden change
for the worse may occur at any moment,
involving his death.
If the disease should be permitted to
run its full course the Crown Prince
may be able to return to Berlin in May
and pass his last days there. The ques-
ton of the period of his return will be
the only subject having remote politi-
cal bearing that will be discussed during
Prince Williams presence at San Bemo,
and the decision arrived at will depend
on the personal inclination of the Crown
Prince and Princess, combined with the
advice of the physicians.
Since his family have recognized that
fatal issue is most probable, the Crown
Prince himself has expressed an urgent
| desire to return to Berlin as soon as pos
sible. He has stated his intention to the
Emperor. who comedies with the Crown
Prince, and has relinquished his pro-
posed journey to San Reno. The
| respites from suffering that the Crown
Prince obtains encourages the conf
dence that he will be enabled to return
| to Berlin. If he is fated to die suddenly
at San Reno he has everything ready.
He has written his will and prepared a
political testament for his successor.
The presence of Prince William at the
villa has cheered his mother. Signif-
canoe is attributed to the fact that none
of his family met him at San Reno sta
| ton. When he arrived from Genoa in
company with the Princess, his brother
and Professor Bergman, he was received
| by the project, thesmayor and German
CONSUL This arrangement was due to
the Crown Prince, who sent instructions
to Prince William at CarIsrhue that
| Prince Henry with DIR. Bergman
| would meet him, the obvious object

knowledge of the condition of his father
| before seeing his mother aid sisters.
The Crown Princess, with the Princesses
awaited him within the villa. 1t is
understood that he received the warmest
welcome, and that many tears were
shed during the interview.
During yesterday and to-day Prince
| William has been with the Crown Prince
on the balcony and there was every APP
pearance of cordiality between father
and son. The reports of GOODNESS in
their relations are chiefly attributed to
French sources. The French papers vie
with each other in malicious inventions.
During the journey from Carlsruhe
Prince William obtained number of
French papers, and was excited to
anger by the stories in them of his self
| ish intention toward the Crown Prince
and his callous disregard of his fathers
suffering.
Throughout Germany public interest
in the news from San Reno grows in
intensity. The people of Berlin await
dispatches with the same eagerness an6
agitation as would be shown if cam
paign involving the fate of the nation
were in progress. Extra editions ART
rushed out and the papers are excited,
read and discussed by groups on tn,
streets
