BERLIN, Oct. 26.-At the dedication of
the Empress Augusta monument the empress
appeared in public here for the first time
since her illness, which commenced at the
Kiel fetes being brought on by overexerton
upon that occasion. The fact that her
majesty had grown considerably thinner and
paler was commented upon on all sides. In
deed, the health of the empress is still deli
cate, and that is the reason why her birth
day. October 22 was observed in the most
strict family secusion. The usual court con-
gratulations and other ceremonies were omit
ted, and even the gala performance prepared
for the opera, which was to give the re-
opening of the renovated tneater a certain
eclat did not take place. The physicians in
attendance on her majesty have strongly ad-
vised her to carefully avoid all excitement
and late hours in order to fully recover her
health.
A curious feature Of the dedication cere-
monies was the choral song in the church.
When the Lord Sends a Cross. Let Us Pa
tiently Bear IT, composed by a boy 13
years OF age, Feeder Won Which who, when
suffering from the same complaint as En-
peror Frederick sent it to the latter. Young
Willich died at the same time as Emperor
Frederick.
Emperor William opened the new supreme
law court of the empire at Leipsic today. His
majesty arrived at noon and was received
at the railroad station by the king Of Sax
ony. The two sovereigns walked together
down the front of the guard of honor and
then drove through the town to the new law
court building. Their majesties were heartily
cheered by the crowds which lined the route,
which was profusey decorated and lined by
troops, military associations and school chill
dren. The chiefs of the various government
departments and the federal councillors were
present at the law court, where the arrival
of the monarchs was announced by flourish
of trumpets.
DOCUMENTS IN THE LAST STONE.
Prince Hohenlohe, the imperial chancellor
read the documents, which were deposited be-
meath the last stone of the building, in which
reference was made to the impending unifica-
ton Of the judicial system of the country
through the institution of a civil code. They
express the desire that by its verdic.s the
supreme court will contribute to the uni
versal triumph of justice, right and honesty,
and may they flourish in all German towns"
Baron Kastner, the Bavarian minister,
then handed trowe to the emperor and the
president of the Reichstag, Baron Won Buhl-
Berenberg, presented his majesty with a
mallet with which he struck the stone thrice
and said: I'm the name of the trune God,
right shall remain right in Saxony"
The emperor then again tapped the stone
and the ceremony was concluded with
"hochs" for the emperor and the king Of
Saxony, the judges of the supreme court and
the president of the Reichstag.
At the banquet which was subsequently
given in the main hall, his majesty ex-
pressed satisfaction with the new law court
building and drank to its prosperity. The
emperor also drank to the health of Prince
Hohenlohe and the other guests.
An accident occurred at the Dresdener rail-
road station during the evening, The depot
was packed with people anxious to witness
the emperor's departure, and the great pres
sure of the crowd bore down the iron railings
guarding the platform. A boy was killed
and many people were seriously injured by
the overturning Of the people which followed.
BISMARCK'S HEALTH IMPROVED.
Prince Bismarck's health at present is ex-
cellent. He walks and drives daily, and
seems to have quite recovered from his re-
cent Illness. DR.. Schweininger, his physician,
owing to Ill health, has been compelled to
abandon most Of his practice, and he will re-
main at Frederchsruh until the end of the
year.
The emperor during tie week spent a few
days in shooting on the estate of Herr Won
Of he m ri al
Presdorf.
Next week his majesty will take part in
the battues on Count Phillip Won Eulenberg's
preserve at Liebenburg.
The chief topic for newspaper discussion
during the past week has been the new half
battaions. The secretary of war is not salts
fed with their operations or utility and the
military experts declare that their purpose,
forming cadres to be called upon in case Of
war. is far from practicable. The emperor
desires to have the following battalions
made whole ones, hence the liberal socialist
press talk of a forthcoming new military bill
The full text of his majestys speech at
the military banquet at Metz is now pub
lished In the semi-oficial Hamburger Corre-
spondent, and in its wording it is quite SEN
satIonal. He said, among other things: II
expect during times of peace, a strict OBJ
seryance OF iron discipline. 1t is only by the
old-time Prussan use of the offensive that
We may hope to attain anything"
BY special imperial edct, the copies of the
rules governing the treatment of recruits
are being made ready for the commander
of each regiment to hand to his subordinate
officers, This action is being taken on ac-
count Of the numbers Of cases Of cruel treat
ment Of recruits which have recently been
made public.
HUSBANDRY NEEDS RELIEF.
The secretary Of husbandry Baron Won
Hammerstein-Loxten, at a banquet given to
him at Ratibor, Silesia, recently, admitted
the dire need of relief felt by German hus-
bandry, but said that Count Won Kanitz's
bill would be no cure for II. The falling
price, he added. was a grave danger but
the government was considering means to
eonnteract 1t. This speech has not pleased
the agrarlans, who want his reasons for de-
nouncing the Kanitz bill.
