Passes Away at CrOnbeFg.
KNOWN To BE DYING,
BUT END WAS SUDDEN
German Emperor and Her Other
Children Present.

Cronberg, Aug. 5.-Dowager Empress
Frederick died at 6;15 p. m. The death
was somewhat sudden. At o'clock her
physicians reported no change in her
condition. Emperor William and her
majesty's other children. and the EN-
press Augusta Victoria were in the sick
room most of the day. They were all
around the bedside when the dowager
empress passed away quietly. Pro
fessOrS Renvers and SpieIhaEen were
also in her room. The flag on the castle
was Immediately half-maSted.
At s o'clock this evening Emperor
William conducted the mem bers of the
dowager empress household into the
death chamber and led them one By
one past the bedside to take a last fare
well of their mistress.
Closely following the announcement
Of the death from the castle, the church
bells were toIled and the flags half
masted. Visitors to the castle began
inscribing their names in a book placed
for the purpose in the hall.
Tt is said the cause of death was
dropsy accompanying cancer. The re-
markable vitality of the dOwager en-
press 2stOnished her physicians, She
retained consciousness to the end. The
castle grounds are now surrounded by
soldiers and patrolled by Hussars and
mounted police

little later the principal street Of
Homburg was filed by shoppers buy

Then came word that the news was
false. There seems little doubt that
the message came from Friedrichsh0f.
although who sent it no one seems TO
know. Count Marshal Haubt who
gave out the inaccurate announcement,
has been summoned to Cronberg. The
false news was telegraphed widely and
many German cities displayed signs IF
mourning. When the official cOntradic-
ton was sent. this was scarcely be

in CrOnberg were allowed to remain.
These were greatly multiplied when

morrow.
The dowager empress knew her DAYS
were few. She had said farewell to
most of her servants. It is understood
that she had arranged for the future Of
nearly every one of them. She had eZ-
pressed a desire that not much should
be known by the public concerning her
disease, lest some should be saddened
by the knowledge of her sufferings.
There was much reluctance in summon
