emperor are unfavorable, disclosing traces Of

OF the examination, court DISPATCHES confirm the
progress OF symptoms tending toward a fatal
issue. The occasional appearance of Improvement
is followed by renewal of the gravest Indications
The decrease in the Princes strength has caused
saddening change in his aspect and has trans
formed hlm from q robust into aged and de-
plntated man who is obviously suffering. The
cohict OF reports does not weaken the fact based
upon absolute information, that in the highest
oihciai quarter every hope has been abandoned of

PRINCE WILLIAM AND HIS FATHER
The presence Of Prince William at the villa has
cheered his mother and the princesses. Comments
adverse to the young man continue to be heard
In Berlin society. Significance is attached to the
TACT that none of the family met him at San Reno
station, where he arrived from Genoa in company
with Prince Henry, his brother, and
Professor Bergmann. lie was received by the
Prefect, the Mayor and the German Consul.
This arrangement due to the Crown Prince
who sent instructions to Prince William at Carls-
ruhc that Prince Henry, with Dr. Bergman,
would meet him, the obvious object being to ena-
BILE him to gain full knowledge Of tho condition
Of his father before seeing his mother and sisters
Twenty minutes after his arrival the Crown
Princess alone accompanied him to meet his
father. During yesterday and to-day he has
been with the Crown Prince on the balcony, and
there was every appearance of cordiality between
father and son.
The reports of coolness in their relations are
chiefly traceabe to French sources. The French
papers vie with each other in malicious in /
ventions During the journey from Carlsruhe |
Prince William obtained number of !
French papers, and was excited to anger by the .
stories in them Of his selfish intentions toward the
Crown Prince and his callous disregard of his
fathers suferings.
INTENSE INTEREST IN NEWS FROM SAN RENO.

and the papers are excitedly read and discussed by
the groups he streets.
T.ao t., Co..
physclous shown by the people Is being daily IN
creased by the suppression of the full official
and by reports from credible sources of quarrels
between Drs. Mackenzie and Bergman over the
of the Crown Princes disease. The tone
IF several of the German newspapers increases
the public irritation The Magdeburg Zeitung de-
,lares that the German people owe nothing to DR..
and that tho fact that the Crown
Princes life still preserved is solely owing to Drs
3ramann, Bergman and Schrader. The National
/eitung predicts an imminent crisis unless the Berg
nann treatment with the use of the German tube
S definitely adopted.
THE REGENCY OF PRINCE WILLIAM
Last week Prince Bismarck had long confer
noes with Emperor William, it is supposed with
eference to the proposal to grant Prince William
ower to sign In the event of the temporary in
apacity of the Emperor, concurrent with the
Of the Crown Prince. The Crown q,
'rince differs with Prince Bismarck on the ques
ion of a regency of this character. 1t is re- ,
orted that the Emperor accedes to the proposal, !
dmittng the force of Prince Bismarcks plea
hat the simultaneous illness Of himself and the
,rown Prince might create confusion in the
lanag cement Of public affairs p
The Emperor is careful to show himself every o
