LONDON, Dec 30.-From inquiries made
by the German embassy relative to the
sailing of the ship Teutonic, and from re-
ports that have come from Berlin, there is
reason to believe that the German kaiser
intends visit incognito to the United
States. Last summer, when the kaiser
was going To Heligoland in the steamship
Fuerst Bismarck, he made remark indi-
eating that an American journey was in
his mind. 1t il said that his desire to see
the American people for himself has grown
stronger since, and that he will take an
early opportunity to crafty himself
Will Travel Incognito.
The only tangible foundation here for
the report appears to be the inquiry en-
anating from the embassy both as to dates
and sailing and accommodations on board.
1t is expected that the kaiser will travel
by one of his minor titles. probably as the
count of Ravensberg. The steamship Teu-
tonic will leave Liverpool for New York on
Jan 6. and if the kaiser goes it will prob
ably he on that date. unless he should be
