Especial TO THE HERALD-Examlner Dispatch
OLoNDoN, Aug. Especial cable to the
New York Sun. Every one is looking
with his own eyes, or through those of the
newspaper men, at the proud little German
Emperor and the tremendous naval display
that his grandma, Queen Victoria. has or
dered for him. Miles of iron clads, three
deep, is a sight to inspire respect, especially
when flanked by nests Of torpedo boats
gunboats and so on. The English are feel
ing very fine over this, and we are re
minded in every possible key that this
island can tackle and destroy any country,
which is perhaps true, with one starred
and striped exception. 1t is almost impos,
sible to believe, looking at the tremendous
naval display, that besides these ships,
England has scattered over the world a
feet bigger than that of any other country
But it is true.
There have been lots of friendly demon
strations between the Emperor and his
grandmother's family, which is supposed in
some dark and mysterious manner to
cement international alliances and help the
welfare Of great nations; even round
Albert Edward, Prince of Wales tried to
look as though he liked getting seasick to
meet his imperial nephew, whom he hates
ard whom he has ably described as "a cad
dish little upstart.n All these goings on, of
course, amount to very little, for if Bis
marck wishes to try to thrash this country,
he will not be kept back by the recollection
of Grandmother Victoria kissing he de-
scendant on both cheeks.
1t would not add much to the German
Emperor's good nature if he knew, which
is true, though not announced here yet,
that Sir MOrrell Mackenzie is going to give
up a portion of his autumn holiday to the
preparation of his memoirs in connection
with the late German emperor. The book,
when it does appear will be called, "a
Months Residence at the court of the
Crown Prince and Emperor OF Ger
many" Many very interesting details
affecting the reputation and illustra-
ting the character of the highest
personages in Prussia will be given, and
the sensation caused by Sir Morrelrs book
ON Frederick the Noble will be mere spark
compared with the electric illumination
which the work will shed on recent events
affecting the house of Hohenzollern.
l understand Sir Morrell made daily
notes of every conversation in which he
took part or at which he was present, so
that the labor which he has before him now
is only of a literary character. Unfortu-
nately for contemporary journalists the
book will be published during the lifetime
of Empress Frederick.
Another thing which will not please the
German Emperor, should he chance TO read
of it, which is rot probable, in the loyal
London dailies, is a meeting held at the In
ternational Socialist club in Soho, Friday
night. The meeting was convened to pro
test against the honors paid to 1.-THE tyrant
William, the despot of Germany, who re-
Gently threatened to shoot down our
brothers in Westphalia." There was a
large attendance, including several ladies',
who applauded the most bloodthirsty senti-
ments with unsexual enthusiasm. Citizen
Herr Skaer, who presided, called the young
Emperor "a scoundrel," ''hell- hound, -
assassin and other uncomplimentary
names, and concluded by volunteering to
make the same speech in front of Buclzing-
b Am palace, if his comrades would support
him. The suggestion was enthusiastically
approved by several speakers, but it is not
probable that anything more will be heard
of it. ~
