The Emperor Exhibits Temper.

Berlin, Jan, At has transpired that the emperor has had a serious quarrel with Prince Frederick Leopold of Prussia, the husband of Princess Louise Sophie of SchlesWig- sister of the empress, over the recent accident to the princess while skating near Glenlcke Castle, Potsdam, when the princess and one of the ladies O.. the court, Baroness Colmar, broke through the ice and came very near drowning.
 It appears that the emperor upbraid- cd the prince for the indifference of his treatment of his wife, and the prince used some pretty rough words in reply ing to the kaiser's rebuke. The em- peror thereupon ordered him under ar rest for fourteen days, with confinement in a room in his castle for that length of time The kaiser immediately tele- graphed for a detachment of the First Guards to be sent from Potsdam to Glenicke Castle to guard the prince, and he has since been confined there, not being permitted to leave his cham ber upon any preteXt.

 No Time for Examination,

No Time for Examination,
 London, Jan. 4-Referring to the Chronicles statement that the proposed treaty between the United States and Great Britain providing for commis- sion to assess damages sustained by Canadian sealers under the Bering Sea award was being Intentionally delayed by the government in London, one of the high officials of the foreign office to-day declared that the proposed trea- ty did not reach the foreign office until the second week in December, and that it was impossible duly to consider such an important matter in the midst of the holiday season, especially when more pressing affairs were occupying the attention of the government Be fore the government could approve such a convention the high law officers must examine it. and it must have the sanction of the colonial secretary, who go far had had no opportunity to exam inc it.
 Washington, Jan. 4.-In regard to the proposed treaty for a commission to be appointed to assess the damages sus- tained by Canadian sealers, this oues- ton is not regarded here as being in any way mixed up with the Venezuelan controversy. As stated in London dispatch the proposed treaty was only Forwarded to London just as the holi- day season began, and in view of the fact that MT Morgan and other promi- nent senators who will have to pass up- on It have already put themselves on record as condemning it in advance. rAre is naturally being taken on both sides so as to make the provisions of the treaty of such a nature as 10 excite the least possible hostility.

T1LTdBLE SERTICE
To Americans Rendered by the London
 Chronicle.


 Washington, Jan. 4'-The fact that the correspondent sent to this country by the London Chronicle has discover ed. as the result of an examination of documents bearing on the Venezuelan boundary question, that the American position is entitled to the respect of the British government, is regarded in Washington as a hopeful sign
 The Chronicles correspondent is Hen ly Norman, associate editor of the pa per- who came to the United States d few days ago with the express purpose of enlghtening the British mind with regard to the sentiment in this coun~ try,
 MT Norman has been fortunate m gaining the confidence of men hlgh m official station, who have esteemed IL a pleasure to supply him with data which have been withheld from American newspaper men.
 From the tone of the London dls- patches this morning it is plain that MT. Normans discoveries have exclted much interest in England. Lord Sahs- bury will find it difficult to attempt to set aside the suggestions made py the Chronicle in the line of a peaceful solu- tion of the differences growing out or the boundary question.
 It is gratifying to Americans to know that MT. Norman has ascertained m the short time that he has been here 2 that American patriotism is an actuaI thing, and that the peopls, are thorough ly determined that the American doc u inc as declared by MT. Cleveland shall be upheld.
