departure for the Orient has started dis
cuss.on az to the ACCESSIBILITY of an estab-
psiAment of a regency. The Freisennlse
zeitung says: when the emperor and
king Of Prussia leaves the country for any
length OF Gn,e, as in the present instance,
a duly empowered person ought in tie
meanwhile 10 seize tine reins OF govern
ment"
1t urges that the matter be brought be-
fore the relchstag. number of the lead
ing papers support the regency PROPOSE
ton, while several OF the conservative pa
pcrs scout this view. Tie constitution CT
the empire authorizes the emperor to p.o-
vide for the regency. The presidency OF
the German bundesrath is vested in tie
king OF Prussia, but nothing is said TO
legalize the transfer Of this dignity 20 a
regent OF Prussia
In the meanwhile the emperor's brother,
Prince Henry Of Prussia, who would nat
urally be regent. is absent in China. The
next prince available would be Frederick

marks. Tho costs in gifts to the sultan OF
Turkey and 10 MS hdrem, etc, also figure
up from 1000 600 TO 100000 marks. Tnere-
fore, II Ia suggested, DIS the voyage is ex-
pected to rebound to Germany's greater
glory AMI advantage, that part OF tho eX-
pense should be borne by the German gov
eminent; otherwise the emperor VIII have
