THE KLADDERDATsoH SCANDAL.
The Kladderdatsch scandal bids fair to
go on forever. Herren Kiderlen- Waech-
ter and Holstein, of the foreign office. and
Count Gutenberg, who was recently APP
pointed ambassador to Austria have
taken no steps to prosecute the editor for
charging them with an intrigue to libel
Prince Bismarck and further
estrange him from the
emperor. There is a growing demand
that they prove their innocence out of
court or begin legal proceedings. The
Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, in
spired from the foreign office, says that a
full revelation of the Kladderdatsch's
mistakes will be made shortly.
The Post remarks that, in case the ac-
cused officials persist in their refusal to
prosecute the Kladderdatsch, an inter-
pellation in the Reichstag will be used to
force the ministers to an explanation.
Ihe Post regards it as a scandal that the
highest officials in the foreign Office should
Ignore charges of unbecoming, if not dis
honorable conduct.
SENSATIONAL DIVORCE CASE.
Berlin society has been entertained for
the last week by the Hertsog divorce case.
Rudolph Hertsog is to Berlin what A. T.
Stewart was once to New York. Young
Mrs Hertsog was the daughter of a pros
porous Berlin tradesman, and was
intelligent and pretty. She made
her husband happy. Old Hertsog,
however, exerted all his influence
to separate the couple and eventually
the young husband disappeared with
baby boy which his wife had borne him a
few months before. Aided by her friends,
his wife traced his movements through
Europe and even to America. After she
had followed him for some time, without
oVertaking him. she was requested by old
Hertsog to consent to divorce
and accept from him 100000 marks
as compensation. She refused to
accept the offer unless the custody of the
child should be granted her. Negotiations
were then suspended. Recently young
Hertsog and his child were discovered
living under an assumed name in San
Sebastian. When old HertsOg learned
that his sons whereabouts was known,
he increased his offer of money in case
of a divorce, and agreed that his
daughter-in-law should have the custody
of the boy up to his 18th year. On
this basis an arrangement was made, and
on Thursday a Berlin court divorced the
young couple on the ground of ''incom-
patibility of temperament"
