The hitter Feeling Eslstlng between re-
male Membera Of Austrian ROYALTY.

The hitter Feeling Existing Between Re-
male Members Of Austrian Royalty.
Much comment OF disagrecablc ma
turc was aroused by the departure OF
the widowed Crown Princess Stephanie
from Vienna on the eve OF the grand
wedding Of the Archduchess Louise to
the heir-apparent Of the throne Of Sax
ony. Under ordinary circumstances II
would have been her place and duty TO
represent and take the place OF the alb
sent Empress Elizabeth, who is at the
present moment travelling in Egypt,
and who has not sufficiently recovered
as yet from the overwhelming sorrow
which she sustained by the death Of her
only son TO enable her TO take part In
such gay festivities as those connected
with an impcrin. wedding. No such
reason, however, can be put forward to
account for the absence Of the crown
princess, who has never even made any
great pretcnsc Of grief at the loss of her
husband. The only explanation which
Is given for her absence Is, says the
New York Recorder, that her mother
in-law, the empress, absolutely refused
to permit her 10 represent her, and that
she (the crown princess) was unwilling
to accept any place In in the process
sions and ceremonies which was inferior
to that to which she is entitled. Ac-
cordingly, when she heard that 1t was
the Archduchess Maria Thercsc, the
beautiful sister-in-law Of the emperor,
who was to play the role of mistress of
the house throughout the wedding fcs-
tivities, she withdrew from Vienna UNI
| til they were over.
The feeling between the empress and
| her daughtcr-in-law Is Of the most bit
ter nature. and, astonishing as II may
appear, they have scarcely met since
the tragedy OF Mcyerling. The en-
| press has always dislilied the crown
| princess from the very outset, and held
that the unhappincss Of her sons mar.
/ ringe and its disastrous termination
were entirely owing TO the dtagrcca-
bic, sulky and Jealous character OF tho
crown princess. Moreover, the en-.
press, like almost every other Austrian,
has been deeply shocked by the Eighty
and altogether inappropriate behavior
IT Princess Stcphanic since she became
widow, and one Of the consequences
thereof has been that the young woman
is allowed scarcely any control of hcr
little daughter, the archduchcss Eliza
beth. Not only has the crown princess
been tactless enough to forget TO make
any manifestation Of sympathy or re
greet when the chapel at Mcycrling wa,
consecratcd and at the services held II
memory Of her dead husband, but she
has cast mourning garments to tn,
winds, decked herself in tho gayest at
tire, and taken her seat every day fol
three weeks among the worthless won
en- who spend their days ut the gambling
tables Of Monte Carlo.
