j - IL KAISER WELHELMS CONDITION

A Vienna throat specialist OF world
wide renOwn said respecting the i'll
ness Of Kaiser Wilhelm
Prof schmidt's prolonged stay
with the kaiser is evidence Of the Sc
TiOus condition Of the patient and OF
the gravity Of the operation The OP-
4ratiOn, as it has been described in
The newspapers, is the most insignia
cant imaginable. One day Of rest and
abstentfOn from speaking should have
been sufficient for complete recovery
From the duration of the kaiser's
eonvaIescence and from Prof.
Schmidts three weeks stay, and also
from other incidents ineligible TO the
professional mind, IL is perfectly plain
that a cleavage of the larynx has been
performed, and no surgeon decides
upon such an operation unless there
is a growth of a pernieiOus character
"An order has gone forth from the
court that no Viennese surgeon is to
express an opinion on the case, but
at professional gatherings no reliance
is placed in the assurances contained
in the published bulletins.
History viii repeat itself Some
professional man Of renOwn viii have
to be found who will inspire the en-
peror with full confidence in himself.
He viii have to face the world with
the assertion to the last that the en-
peror's throat disease is harmless,
just as Sir MOrell Mackenzie did, who
sacrificed his time, health and reputa-
ton in order to keep the Emperor
Frederick in ignorance Of his true
condition"
A small Frankfort paper, the Kleine
Presse, which has many friends in the
medical circles Of Frankfort, says:
"AH those who ought to know are
anything but confident in the emper-
Or's speedy recovery. They regard
the illness in a different light from
that shed upon it by the press in gen
eral. The emperor is much depressed
and his general health has given way
a good deal"
It is believed in Berlin that Prof.
Schmidt has only returned to Frank
fort for time and will soon be in Ber-
lin again. Doubts are expressed
whether a second operation viii not
be necessary.
Berlin Press Not Satisfied.
A section of the Berlin press con-
tinues to be inclined TO doubt the off,
