BERLIN. Oct. GA municipal depu-
tation, in waiting upon Emperor Will
lam, to-day presented on address of
welcome on the occasion of his return
home, and were startled by some en-
phatic remarks, in the course of the
emperor's reply, on the scandal and
gossip of the press affecting the I'M
perial family. The deputati0n request
ed permission to erect on the SchlOSS-
platZ, in memory of the emperor's visit
to Vienna and Rome, fountain de-
signed by Prof. Begas, the artist. The
emperor expressed his qualification and
interest in the undertaking. The
people of Berlin, he said, had followed
his Journeys and knew that the friendly
reception which he met with. every
where was not intended only for him
self. but for the German empire. For
the pleasant surprise which the munich
pal representatives prepared for him he
thanked them all, much moro for the
reason that it happened to come Oh the
day when the church of the Holy Ghost.
in which his father, the Emperor
Frederick. had always shown the
greatest interest, was cOnSecrated. The
emperor expressed the hope that he
would soon see more such fine churches
erected in Berlin. He trusted that his
jOurneyingS would have the best results

regret that during his absence, while
using his best efforts for the Interests
of the empire, disputes have arisen in
the Berlin press regarding the affairs OF
members of his own family. Attacks

by nor permitted against any private
individual. He requested the deputa-
ton to do their utmost to put stop to
the unseemly discussion, as it con-
cerned them all. He desired to live
among the people of Berlin as q Ber
liner. He relied upon the representa-
tives of the capital to respond to that de-
sire. None of the members ventured to
make any remark upon the emperOr'S
unexpected reproacbes. Even if Ell
quette had allowed it, they were TOO
much amazed to respond. The emperor
spoke in quiet tone, which was utterly
DEVOID of anger. but his words and man
ner left the impression that he felt
acutelv the attacks that had been made.
Prior to the receiving of the deputa
ton, the emperor and empress were
present at the conservation of the
Church of the Holy Ghost, which was
founded by Frederick. The church is

in Berlin. The prince and Princess of
SaXe-Meiningcn, the Princess Frederick
Charles, Prince Leopold, the minister
of state and the civil authorities ap-
peared at the ceremony. Architect

who, in reply. expressed the pleasure
he derived from being present on spot
