of the Event.
GENERAL FOREIGN TOPICS

BERLIN. November 27.-Princess Bis

at Varzin at 8 o'clock this morning.
The condition Of the princess became
alarming yesterday, as exclusively told in
the Associated Press dispatch from Varzn
yesterday afternoon. 1t was then an
nounced that the princess had suffered a
relapse, and that great anxiety was felt
in regard to her condition by the prince
and by her attendants. All the family
were hastily summoned to her bedside.
Count Herbert Bismarck arrived yester-
day evening. and was present when his
mother passed away.
Although 1T is feared that the effect of
his wife's death upon the prince will be
serious, 1t is satisfactory to add that the
great chancellor has been in better health
lately, and that he has been able to re-
sumo his daily drives.
Princess Bismarck Duchess of Lauen-
burg), wife of Prince Bismarck, has been
in poor health for a long time. Her illness
became pronounced two months ago. She
was deeply affected and received severe
shock when the death OF her lifelong
friend, Frau Eugenie Reckow, prioress of
the Stoll Institute for Unmarried Women,
was announced. Three weeks ago DR..
Schweninger was called to FREDERICKSBURG
to prescribe tor 6. serious attack of neu-
ralgia. Since that time she has been al
most continuously under the care Of a
physician.
1t is feared that the effect of the death
of his wife upon Prince Bismarck will be
serious, because OF his failing health and
advancing years.

KOLB THREATENS.
He Says He VIII he Sworn in ms Gov
ernOr of Alabama.

ernOr of Alabama.
The metht ds intended to be pursued by
the Kolbites On the matter of Kolb's in
auguration, at Montgomery, Ala, next
Saturday, remain mystery. Certain 1t is
that kolb will be sworn in, but what the
next step will be nobody there knows.
Reports from different sections of the
state indicate that many of Kolbs fol-
lowers will be at Montgomery on Saturday
but whether to assist him in forcibly TAX
ing the reins of government or to lend the
dignity Of numbers to his Inauguration is
not known.
The popuist leaders say that Kolb has
not consulted them before or since the is
suance OF the manifesto declaring himself
elected governor, and stating that ''by the
grace of God he will take his seat" and
they are therefore taking no hand in the
matter. They all unite in the opinion that
kolb cam IT assemble sufficiently large
any sort or resistance to the state troops,
all of whom have been ordered to attend
the Inauguration of Col Oates.
Capt. kolb's scheme Is no more under
stood by his lieutenants than by his politi-
cal adversaries. Many think he will be
sworn in. and will then instruct the county
officers of his party to refrain from paying
over any moneys due the state for taxes
into the hands of the state officers INSTALL
ed. Under the Alabama law this would be
treason, and Kolb would be arrested for it,
1t is believed he will then appeal to the
supreme court and make his alleged cleo
ton his defense
Others think he Is simply after notoriety
kolb Will not show his hand, and simply
says he will be inaugurated as stated in
his manifesto.
Gov. Jones will not talk, but suggests
that woe be unto the man who attempts
an insurrection against the peace and dig
nifty OF the laws of Alabama.

Dangerous for H0rscs.

Under an arrangement between the Belt
Railway Company and the Washington and
Georgetown Railroad Company, the cars Of
the former company now run over certain
tracks on 1st street northwest between
Pennsylvania avenue and Indiana avenue
which are claimed to be owned by the
Washington and Georgetown Railroad Com

The manager of the Belt Line road has
informed the Commissioners in letter
that some of the covers to the snanholes
used in connection with the cable line have
been so changed as to present a smooth,
instead of a corrugated, surface. Such a
change he says, is dangerous to the horses
on account of their liability to slip; and If
they should fall near Indiana avenue there
would be additional danger of a collision
with cable cars. He requests that the Or

THE CHILDREN TAKEN.
An Affecting Scene in Judge Miller's
Court Today

Court Today
Judge Miller of the Police Court had
more than usually difficult Ease to decide
this morning, when Agent Lewis of the
board Of children's guardians brought be-
fore the court Camille Rosetta, an Italian
woman and her two children. Marie, aged
thirteen, and Louis, seven years old The
people live in Earle's court, near the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad depot, the court
wao told, the father Of the children selling
fruit from a pushcart aid the children be-
ing sent out to beg. The girl, rather at
tractive and bright-looking child, 1t was
said was in constant danger Of being led
to destruction, the parents, particularly
the father. being utterly Indifferent to, If
not really promoting, the downward course
of the girl. A chartably inclined lady,
conditions in which the family lived, told
the court that the children were kept in
rags, the father spending in drink all the
children secured by begging. She also
take care Of the girl. as the father beat
her and compelled her to beg on the
streets.
When the court intimated that he would
turn the two children over to the board
the mother swooned and created quite
scene in court, the two children throwing
themselves OH their mother and piteously
begging the judge not to part them. The
scene SomeW nat disconnected Judge Miller
and he called for further testimony. The
little girl admitted that her father beat her
and that she was afraid Of him, and also
stated that 1t was true that she had keen
compelled to go out begging and for beer
and whisky for her parents. The mother,
who had first declared that she could not
speak English, finally found words enough
to protest that the children were well cared
for, and that she did not know that 1t was
wrong to send the children out begging.
Judge Miller finally decided that the safe
ty of the children demanded that they
should be placed under the protection of
the board, and so directed despite the
tears and entreaties Of the mother and
children.

1t is Said That He is willing to Sur

The New York World says:
If the word of a well-known physician
can be depended upon, Seely Is within
thirty miles of the city hall, and he has
not been much further away than that at
any time since he disappeared, over a
week ago.
The fugitive Is broken in health and
spirit, according to this physician, and
may have but a few months of life left
to him.
Living upon a bed in an upper story room
of the house in which he has found refuge,
this physician says that Seely spent a
good deal Of time yesterday preparing a
statement by which he expects to show
that he was only tool in the hands of
others, and that persons more prominent
and better known than Frederick Baker,
his dead confederate, profited by his steal
ings.
From hints dropped in the presence of his
physician the latter has been led to be-
lieve that there were really five persons
actively concerned in the conspiracy to
Gefraud the Shoe and Leather Bank, and
that one at least Of these occupies n high
position, socially and financially. Two of
the five were Baker and Seely and two
others, according to the statement to be
made by Seely, are connected with big
banking houses.

will, 1t is said, deal with the defalcation
from the beginning, tell how he was tempt
ed and the man who tempted him, and set
forth how much of The money went to
the other conspirators and how 1t was used
by the men.
The claim will be made that much of the
money was used in investments. and used
in frui.less effort to make these invest
ments pay.
1t is said that some of the money was
invested in the business enterprises of
man who is now serving out a sentence of
imprisonment for embezzling, and that at
the time of lis arrest the conspiracy
against the Shce and Leather Bank was on
the verge of discovery.
How the thefts were extended over
