UNCLE OF THE GERMAN EMPEROR

Salary of $43, 800 a Year.

BERLIN, Oct. 29.-It is understood that
the Emperor has accepted the exclaimed

tionary Protestant like Count Zu Eulen-
berg as Governor Of Alsace-Lorraine would
create bad feeling in that province His
Majesty has summoned Prince Hohenlohe-
Langenberg, head of the Nauenstein line
of the Hohenlohes to Potsdam, as a posi-
BILE Governor. His Majesty's desire TO APP
point Count Zu Gutenberg to the highest
position next to the chancellorship with
a salary of $4,000 higher than the Chan
cellor receives as compensation for the
sights cast upon him in the Caprivite
press is a further instance of intrusion of
imperial feeling into the government OF

enlist popular approval. Prince Hohenlohe-
Langenberg is an uncle to the Emperor.

families. He was formerly a member of
the Free Conservative party in Parliament,

matters. He has made no particular mark
in politics. The other candidates for the
same position are General Won Loe, Prince
Frederick Hohenzollern and General Count
Won Waldersee. 1t is believed that Prince
