BERLIN. Feb 2S.-The Emperor's wrath
at the failure of the visit of Empress Fred
erick 10 Paris TO establish some sort of good
feeling between Germany and France has
fallen upon both Chancellor Won Capriyi
and Count Won Munster. the German En-
bassador at Paris-upon the former for ad-
vising the trying Of the experiment, and
upon the latter for asserting TO the pro-
longed stay of the Empress and her fatally
indiscreet visit to Versailles.
Notwithstanding the semi-official French
denial, NJ. Herbette, the French Embassador
here, was consulted prior to the Emperor
giving his consent 10 the Empress making
the journey. Court officials here affirm that
the Chancellor mentioned the Empress de-
sire, her personal aims and the prObable
period of her stay, to Herbette fortnight
before she started.
HERBETrE sSUBBED.
The Emperor appears to charge the
Chancellor and Munster with misinforming
him as to what the results of the visit would
probably be. Herbette, who was probably
instructed by the French Foreign Minister.
that he desired 10 express personally to the
Emperor his regrets at the manner the En-
press had been treated. The Emperor re-
piled that he did not wish to hold any un-
official conversation on a subject which
would be personally painful to himself and
Herbette.
This is Interpreted in official circles as
pointing to the Emperor's 5 determina-
tiOn to obtain from the French Government
some form OF satisfaction for the treatment
accorded his mother. ~
There are rumors that Capriyi will be
ousted and Munster recalled. Herbette
will probably soon return to France. As
soon as the Emperor perceived that a crisis
was impending he sent for Waldersee, with
whom he had long conference, afterwaTd
consulting with MIGUEL 49, F.. -. =:
