London, Nov 15.-The serious appre-
hension with which the announce
ment of the fact that the Car was
suffering from typhoid fever filled
Europe. emphasizes how much the
peace of the world is believed to be
dependent upon him. But for the
statement contained in the official bull

taking thoroughly favorable course,
the news of his illness would have ere
ated nothing less than CONSERVATION.
1t is generally felt at the present crit

even temporary weakening of the
influence of so favorable factor in the
maintenance OF the worlds peace JUS

that no good can be accomplished nm

stroyed. MIR. Strauss had repeated this
to Mr.. Croker and the latter asked him

cause he Is familiar with the matters

citcdly replied that the Coroner did
