| BERLIN, March 29-The imperial
party in their visit to Italy are accom-
PANIED by a large and distinguished
suite. Among those attached to the
Emperor are General Won Plessen,
Colonel Englebrecht and their aides
de- camp, Admiral Won Senden-B -Bibran,
/ chief of the Emperor'S marine staff;
Count Won Gutenberg, Grand Marshal
of the Court; Baron Won Kiderlen-
Weachter, German Minister to Den
mark and a close confidant of the Kai-
ser, and DR.. Lieutpold. Among the at
tendants of the Empress are two cham
| berlains and two ladies of honor, and
the young Princesses are accompanied
| ty three tutors. Court Pastor DrySan-
der is also with the party.
| Leaving Naples en- March 31st on
board the imperial yacht Hohenzollern,
the Emperor and Empress with their
suites will sail for Palermo. They will
sojourn five days in Sicily, and sail
thence to Venice, where the meeting
will take place between the Kaiser and
King Humbert the communications be-
tween Prince Hohenlohe, the German
|
Italy's Prime Minister in regard to the
presence of the German Emperor in
Italy having resulted in the two mon
archs deciding ON having a conference
alone. Queen Margharite will accom-
pany the King and visit the Empress.
The King and Queen of Roumania will
join the imperial and royal party for one
| day.
/ The Emperor will then start for vi
emma, where he will be joined by Prince
Hohenlohe 1t is stated that Prince Ho-
hcnlohe is going to Austria to attend the
marriage of his Minister, and not in
connection with his alleged intention to
resign.
| 1t is believed here that the confer
ences do not relate to a renewal of the
Dreibund, that being already secured,
but rather to the Kaiser'S policy toward
Russia, whose successful diplomacy in
| Bulgaria and dominance of Turkey
have created feelings of great anxiety
at the Austrian and Roumanian courts,
to the King of Roumania especially
that monarch being somewhat uneasy
as to the prudence of his entente with
the Dreibund, in view of Russia's atti-
tude.
/ The enthusiastic reception given the
Emperor in Italy is largely due to his
own tact. Previous to his arriving in
Genoa his majesty ordered the band of
marines on board the HohenZollern,
which was awaiting him at Genoa, to
give a concert for the benefit of the
Italian soldiers who were wounded at
the battle of Adowah in AbySSinia, the
entertainment realizing a large sum.
The Kaiser also directed Prince Henry
of Prussia to visit the wounded who
were being treated in the hospital in
Naples the day before he himself ar
rived there, and another concert will be
given by the marine band in Naples,
where the Emperor's popularity has
reached a phenomenal intensity of en-
thusiasm.
| The story associated with the duel
| fought last Thursday between Lieu
tenant Won Kettleshode and Herr Zen
KERN, in which the latter was killed, is
| of absorbing interest in social circles,
where the affair is being discussed in
detail. Lieutenant Won Kettleshode
obtained permission to remain in Ger
many when the Hohenzollern left Ber-
| lin. Herr Zankerin was a lawyer of
| y.
married charming woman, by whom
| he had six children.
| In the summer of 1894 Frau Zenkerin
met Lieutenant Won Kettleshode at
| Laboe, a seaside resort near Kiel, and
| their ensuing concealed friendship
aroused Herr Zenkerin's jealousy, and
he left his wife in August last taking
their children with him. He then set

| it is said found sufficient to warrant his
challenge.
The challenge was accordingly sent
and accepted by Won Kettieshode, who,
| according to his right chose the weap-
| ons and the terms of their use. The
| challenged officer named pistols, both
| principals to fire until one should be
disabled. Several naval officers ac-
companied Won Kettleshode from Kiel
| to Potsdam near which place the duel
was fought. Herr Zenkerin wore a
uniform, and his brother, a physician,
watched the fight. Shots were ex-
changed four times. Won Kettleshode's
fourth shot piercing Zankerin's heart
Won Kettleshode Immediately gave
himself up.
The SEVENTEEN birthday of Herr Will
was celebrated to-day with unusual
ceremony, the celebration being partici-
pated in by all of the Socialist Deputies
in the Reichstag, the Socialist members
of the municipality and members of the
Socialist party. A grand banquet was
held at which 80 covers We're laid, and
the chair in which Herr Liebknecht sat
was garlanded with roses. The Social
ist group in the Reichstag presented
their venerable leader with a bronze
votive label inscribed, ITO Their Senior,
Wilhelm Liebknecht, on His Seventieth
Birthday From the Socialist Demo-
Gratis in the German Reichstag." Herr
Singer toasted Herr Liebknecht as a
soldier in the cause of humanity.
The .'Vorwaerts' urges the Socialists
and the working people generally to
celebrate May Day prudently and calm
ly, and only to cease work on that day
where it is possible to do so without
danger of collision with the authorities
and the employers. The tone of the
"Vorwaerts' (" article is a vast advance
in moderation as compared with the
old cry of a universal strike demonstra-
tion.
