which. in view of his age, had inspired
the gravest apprehension. Although at

Occasionally, however. completely over

Addressing Prince Won Liechsten-

but good Nothing is spared me in this

He managed to sleep several hours
last evening, and said this morning he
felt comparatively well, discouraging
the attempts of his attendants to dis
play solicitude for his health.
The shock of the news orazed one Of
the court servants, who rushed from
the palace to Buryplatz, shrieking:
Where is the murderer of our en-

Dispatches of coincidence are arriv-

Emperor William and from nearly
all the European sovereigns. The

1t is reported that the presidency of
the revolutionary government will be
offered to Cajetano Arellano at a con-

is a lawyer of excellent repute-the one
man among the Filipinos who is uni

consistently avoided politics, and it is
doubtful whether he will undertake
the task of steering a rudderless ship.
Whatever may happen at the con-

Francis Joseph as follows:

misfortunes. We pray that God may be-
stow upon the house of Hapsburg that
peace and tranquility which It merits by
reason of its sentiments toward the

churches of Rome for the repose of the
soul of the deceased. 1t is understood
that the Prince of Naples and Emperor
William. with Empress Augusta and Vic

Another feature is the intense sorrow

hoped that the sad event will tend to
compose the political troubles between
the two parties of the dual monarchy.
