and in both court circles and high official
quarters the visit is now considered certainty.
Tho En-. perors plans are OF course subject to

the enthusiasm OF the semi official press for
the Chicago enterprise could hardly be ex-
planned on other grounds. as materially the
Emperor cannot benefit to any great extent
from such an elaborate exhibit as has been
arranged.
Tho Emperors desire has been that the EN-
press should accompany him. She. however.
did not wish to go unless she could take oil the

clearing and identifying an open space
round the castle occupied by the imperial

The Emperor has begun to show his con-
