News of the Week at the German
Capital.
! Berlin. April 7.-[Copyrighted 1894, by
the Associated Press. 1.-The greatest
interest is taken here in the exchange
of courtesies taking place at Venice to-
day between Emperor William and |
King Humbert, of Italy. Dispatches
from Venice say the Won Moltke. with /
the emperor on board, arrived at the
port of Malomerro, off the bay of We !
nice, at 10 o'clock this morning. The |
German warship was met by five |
steamers, containing a party of Ger /
man residents and the municipal au-
1 thorities, etc.
At 11:15 o'clock, an artillery salute
announced the entrance of the Won
Moltke into the harbor.
During the passage from Malomerro,
Emperor William remained on the
the military salutes. He was greeted
. with hearty cheers on all sides.
The quay of the Rivadegli Shiaboni
and the ducal palace were filled with
an immense throng of spectators, while
all the buildings along the canal and
all the vessels in the basin of st. Mark
were crowded with people and deco
rated with flags.
SaIutes and Hurrahs.
A thunder of gunpowder salutes and
hurrahs from the spectators greeted
the emperor's arrival in the bay of St
: Mark. Upon his arrival in the basin
: of St. Mark King Humbert and his
nephew, the duke of Abruzzi, immedi-
ately put off in boat and boarded
the Won Moltke, where they We're cor
daily received by the German empe-
ror. The King and Emperor William
remained in converse ton about twenty
minutes, after which King Humbert
left the Won Moltke and returned to
: the palace Shortly after, King Hum
bert went ashore, Emperor William
: landed and returned the visit of the
king at the palace. While on his way
l to visit King Humbert, Emperor Will
D liam was cheered with the greatest en-
= thusiasm by the crowd which assem-
bled on the plaza of st. Mark, and in
= response to the continued vivas, the
emperor and the king presented them
: selves at a window of the ducal pal
e ace and bowed their acknowledge
ments. The meeting between Emperor
[ William and King HUmbert is believed
= to have no political significance beyond
: an avowal of the cordial personal
e friendship existing between the royal
t houses of Italy and Germany.
a The interest, so far as the public is
concerned, centers in the invitation eX-
: tended TO the emperor asking him to
D. visit the arsenal. Emperor William
e will be the first foreign monarch who
y has been so honored, as the arsenal,
8 by law, is closed against all foreigners.

perors have some bearing upon a pos
