BERLIN, March 9.-Emperor William
Eye-witnesses of the scenes az the death
of the Emperor state that during tie
last few hours of his life he suffered no
pain. Shortly after 8 o'cloek all the
members Of the family STAYING
at the palace, the court dignitaries,
generals, and ministers Of state were
summoned to the chamber in which the
Emperor lay dying. The Emperor was
in half sitting position on camp bed
stead, the members of the royal family
having places at the bedside. The room
was crowded Prince William stood
nearest the Emperor, and half bending
over the couch, earnestly watched the
face of the dying monarch until he ex-
pired.
The Emperor died holding the En-
press hands. He had been in stupor
since 3 o'clock. He was delirious for q
brief period at o'clock, during which
he is reported to have exclaimed: 81
am man of peace, but if Russia forces
me to war shall faithfully side with my
ally, Austria" The Emperor will be
buried in the mausoleum at Charlotten-
berg.
1t was lard to convince the people
that the end had come. The report
yesterday afternoon that he was dead
was apparently SO authentic that the
papers of the city issued extra editions.
The death off the Kaiser was announced
to the awaiting populace by the lower
ing to halfmast of the standard over
the palace. Flags at half-mast were
then displayed on all the public build
ings. An immense concourse of people
had gathered on the outside of the
palace, the multitude silent and sorrow
full.
The Emperor's remains lie covered
with a white cloth on the bedstead in
the imperial chamber in which he died,
the body surrounded with candles. The
expression of the face is extremely
peaceful and placid.
The members of the royal family left
the palace at 10 o'clock. Divine SER
vices will be held in the mortuary cham
Der tonight. The cathedral choir will
perform the choral parts of the service.

A PLEA FOR HELP.
The Burlington Appeals to the Courts
Praying for an Injunction Against the
Strikers-Steps TO Enforce the Inter-
State Commerce Law-Bringing Suit
Against the Waba Company.

CHICAGO, Ill, March S.-The Burling-
ton has commenced the legal war. The
United States circuit court granted an
order this morning for Receiver Nc
Nulta, of the Wabash, to show cause
why he should not move freight when
offered; also summoning Arthur to
show cause why he should not be pun
ished for contempt in interfering with
property under the control of the court;
and also to show cause why he and his
associates should not be restrained from
giving orders to the Wabash engineers
to strike. All the parties cited will APP
pear In court at noon tomorrow, mean
while, the order cites, as restraining in
junction ad interim. The court record is
as follows:
"Come now the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy Railroad Company and D. E.
Richardson, by their solicitors, and
present their petition to this court,
praying for an order OF the court
requiring the receiver of the court, APP
pointed herein, and his agents, officers
and employees, to perform his duties as
public carrier, as respects traffic with
such petitioner, and also for an order
called the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers and lis officers
and agents, and especially one P. M. Ar
thur, its chief executive officer, as
charged in said petition, from in any
way giving any orders to the engineers
in the employ of the receiver for them
to refuse to haul loaded cars coming to
or going from the railroad in charge of
said receiver, in and also pray ing for an
order to punish the said Arthur for con-
tempt of court in unlawfullv interfering
with the administration of the property
in the custody of the court in this cause.
"Whereupon the court orders the said
petition, together with the affidavits and
papers in support thereof, to be filed,
and the said application is set for hear
ing at o'clockP P. NJ. of March 9, 1888,
and it is ordered that notice of such APP
plication be forthwith served on the re-
ceiver or his solicitor"
General-Manager Stone, of the Bur-
hngton, said this afternoon that the ap-
pGcation was made first against the Wa
bash, because the evidence against that
road was very conclusive, for not only
had that company refused to handle
Burlington freight here, but also at the
various junction points of the two roads.
The application against the Wabash is
not intended to be test case, but sim
liar motions will be made against all
roads refusing to handle freight from the
Burlington system,

EMPRESS OF GERMANY.
Victoria's Daughter Triumphs Over
Prince Bismarck.


LONDON, March 9.-To-day's events
raise to fever heat continental interests
in the query how long the Crown Prince
will live. Here in England this anxiety
is swallowed up temporarily in rejoicing
that the English princess, who
is best beloved Of her whole
race, and who made such a
splendid and resolute fight against the
whole Berlin court ring to keep her hus-
band alive, has triumphed. She will be
Empress of Germany now, at least for a
time, and no German intrigues. not even
if given the whole weight of her sons
influence, can rob her of her rank, her
dover and her share in the crown es-
tates. Naturally Englishmen are de-
lighted with this and it is hard not to
sympathize with them.
It is recalled now that Bismarck, who
was already the chief man in Prussia in
1858, strenuously opposed the marriage
of the Crown Prince with the English
princess, saying that he was against any
"blood alliance with those scrofulous
Guelphs." The existing situation is a
strange retributive comment On that ut
terance. Scrofula, or that worse allied
disease with which so many royal strains
OF blood are contaminated, lays heavy
hand on the Hohenzollerns at San Reno
and Berlin alike; bnt the faint has not
come from England. A fact which has
been privately known here for some
months may now properly be men
toned. The present aged Empress of
Germany, mother of the Crown Prince,
has been victim to hereditary scrofula,
or a cognate maladv, for many years.
She got it from her mother, Marie
Paulowna, who was daughter of the
crazy Car Paul, one of the most thor
oughly diseased men Of his generation
All of PauPs daughters trans
mitted the faint to their descend
ma, was mother of the present King
Of Holland, and the recent death Of
both his sons and the extinction of his
male line are attributed to this. In the
male Romanof line the same malady
caused the death of the Czarevitch, who
was the elder brother of the present
Gar, and now renders it very doubtful
If the present youthful Czarvitch will
ever reach manhood. In the Hohen-
zollern case, not only is the Crown
Prince suffering from this hereditary
faint, but his son William, who in a few
weeks or months will be Emperor, is
hereditarily deaf, and was born with
mere shapeless ball of flesh
where the right hand ought to be. The
Crown Princes only sister is the Grand
Duchess of Baden, and of her two sons
one died last month and the other is i'll
at Cannes and not expected to recover,
both from scrofulous developments.
The maladv can, in truth, be traced all
through the Almanack Gotha among
descendants of the Gar Paul. The dis
ease only showed itself in the Empress
Augusta when she had advanced in life,
since when she has worn high dresses,
and frequently was not visible to the
public for months at time.

under singular circumstances. The Rev.
Joe Jones, brother of Sam Jones is con-
Quoting revival at Millersburg.
A few nights ago, at the close of
the preaching, he called on O. B.
Shockley, student In the Wesleyan
Theological school at Millersburg to
pray. The young man was sitting a
short distance from Miss Jones. He
knelt down and after an invocation OF
the divine blessing, besought that while
Sam Jones was going about saving
sinners, the Masters grace might bring
salvation to his dasaghter, who was going
to perdition as fast as she could. Miss
Jones arose and went hurriedly out of
the church and later, saying that she
would not stay in a community where
women were not safe from insult, left
for her home at Atlanta, Ga.

BIOGRAPHICAL.
Brief Sketch of the Remarkable Career
of the Monarch.

William, Emperor of Germany, was
born March %, 1877, and, receiving the
education of a soldier, took part in the
campaigns of 1918 and 1915 against
France. In 1910 he was made Governor
of POmeranla. which post he held until
the revolution CT 1913 caused him to take
refuge III England. When the mind of his
brother gave way he was III &c
regent; aud, being elected to the
Constitutional Assembly, took his seat,
and was subsequently made commander
in chief of the Prussian army which
subdued the revolution in Baden. In
1861 he succeeded to the crown
of Prussia, his brother dying without
issue. By his frmness he succeeded in
subduing the feeling Of revolution exist
ing in Germany, and by judicious for
eign wars distracted attention from home
affairs. Much against his inclination he
embarked on a still more ambitious
scheme and prepared to obtain suprem-
acy in Germany by force of arms.
Early in 1866 the scheme was ripe for
execution. A treaty of alliance was con-
Guided with Italy, an ultimatum sent to
Austria, and an immense army set in
motion. War was declared and IN a
campaign of but few weeks that power
was completely defeated and COM

Berlin. The crime was committed bv a
young Socialist named Emil Hoedel, he
firing two shots, neither of them hit
ting the Emperor. The man was pur-
sued and finally captured. He said he
had no intention of murder; but, being
unemployed and dissatisfied, had re-
solved to commit suicide He was tried,
found guilty, and executed. A second
attempt upon the Emperor's life was
made June q, 1878, on the Avenue Gun

ing. Two shots were fired, both of which
took effect. The would-be assassin was

Driven to Desparation.

A Winnipeg, Mimi, dispatch says:
The distress among the Northwestern
Indians is causing the greatest appre-
pensions here. A meeting of the chiefs
Of the Stones and Crees was held at Adj
monitor some days since. and AieXan-
der, one of the chiefs, stated that his
people had made but half a crop
of barley, and that the government
ratiosls, instead of being raised to meet
the barley failure, had been decreased
two-thirds. In his tribe out three rations
had been issued since November | and
they were insufficient, amounting each
time to about five pounds of -four to each
persoa The settlers are alarmed at the
attitude of the Indians. Gahrial Du-
mont, who is now in New York, is said
to have advised the halfbreeds at Ba-
touche to,secure food by pillage rather
than to die of starvation.

Formal Notice of the Death of the
Emperor and King.
BERLIN, March AT the opening of
the Lower House Of the Prussian Diet,
Herr Won Puttkamer, vice-president Of
the Prussian ministerial council, arose
and said: II have the sad duty to make
a most painful communication to the
House. 1t has pleased God to call His
Majesty, the Emperor, in the twenty
eighth year of his glorious reign, from his
earthly existence by peaceful
death at $3.50 o'clock this morning. You
will not expect me at this most solemn
moment, when sorrow and care so deep
ly stir our hearts, to attempt to depict
the feelings with which the whole ma
ton is filled through the loss of our most
beloved, exalted and venerable ruler. I
may, however, safely and confidently
say on this day of sore trial that the
Prussian people and their representa-
tives wilt now, more than ever, be
penetrated by the consciousness
that the sorrow of our exalted
sovereign's house is theirs and that the
deeper the universal pain at the decease
of our aforementioned king the
stronger and more indissoluble will be

closed the sitting with the words: ''God
protect the royal house and the father
land"
When the Reichstag met to-day,
Prince Bismarck. with deep emotion,
informed the members of the death OF
the Emperor. III also announced that
the new king would assume the title of
Frederick III.
When Prince Bismarck entered the
Reichstag at 1885 O'Clock this af,er-
noon, he deposited the imperial order
closing the session. The order was the
last official document signed by the late
Emperor. Prince Bismarck informed
the Reichstag that Emperor Frederick
William will leawe San Reno tomorrow
and that he will arrive in Berlin in due
communication withevident satisfaction,
the more so because Herr Won Putt
kamer in announcing the death of EN-
peror William to the Lower House Of
the Diet had not alluded to the new
Emperor. This omission had created
painful impression. Prince Bismark
declared that from what he had OBJ
served during the last few days EN-
peror William had found consolation in
those trying hours in the sympathy the
whole world showed in the sufferings of
his son, and ia his consciousness Of
the consolidation of national unity
which found expression in the unani-
NOUS passage of the military bill The
Reichstag then adjourned for an indef-
mite period. After the adjournment
Prince Bismarck descended from the ele-
waited seats occupied by the members of
the Bundesrath into the body of the
house and greeted Count Won Moltke.
The members crowded around him and
viewed the order dissolving the
Reichstag, all being anxious.to see the
last signature of the Emperor.
The Stats Anzieger publishes the fol-
lowing proclamation, signed by the
minister of state: "It has pleased
God to call His Majesty, the Emperor
and King, our most gracious master,
from life, after short illness and after
a richly blessed reign. The whole ma
ton mourns with the royal house the
decease of the deeply beloved and ven
cradle monarch whose wisdom has ruled
SO long and gloriously over it's fortunes
IN war and In peace"
