REASON FOR RECALL OF LATE
GERMAN MINISTER.
STALLED FOR WINE FIRM
Used Official Position to Advertise
Brand and Endeavored to Have 1t
Used in Christening of Meteor

New York, Feb. 1.-THE World
says that from evidence brought in
the United States circuit court it ap-
pears hat Emperor Williams sudden
and mysterious recall of Baron Won
Holleben, German ambassador at
Washington, closely followed charges
that he had used his official position
to advertise a certain wine. This
wine had been urged in vain by the
embassy for use in the christening
of the emperor's yacht Meteor by
Miss Alice Roosevelt.
Herman Limburger, member of the
law firm of Hoadley, Lauterbach e.
Johnson, who figured in the litigation
in the circuit court at Milwaukee,
returned to New York and told of the
time that these charges against Am
bassador Won Holleben were presented
in person by Edward Lauterbach to
Secretary Hay; that President Roose-
welt had directed an investigation of
the charges, inasmuch as he himself
had taken a conspicuous part in the
launching of the Meteor and his
daughter had broken the bottle of
wine at the christening. Mr.. Linn
burger says that Count Won Quadt,
secretary of the German embassy, adj
mitted on cross examination, that Am
bassador Holleben had received a let
ter from the producers of a certain
champagne offering him 20 cases if
he would designate that wine for
the christening of the Meteor.
Wallace Downey, who built the Me-
teor, testified that he vas repeatedly
importuned by Count o Quadt, and
by the secretary of the German con-
sulate to use a special brand of wine
at the christening. He had already

Important Measures to Come Before
British Lawmakers.

London, Feb. 16.-The British par
lament will assemble today. The ses-
sion promises to be a most important
one. The first business after the de-
bate on the address in reply to the
speech of the king will be the adop-
ton OF the new rules of procedure,
and the general belief is that the mat
ter will be disposed of rapidly. The
supplementary estimates must be
dealt with in the first few weeks, in
order that the budget may be intro
duced at the beginning of April. It is
believed the way will be cleared for
the introduction of the Irish land bill
Immediately after the budget, but the
London education bill will not be laid
before the house until after the Easter
holidays.
The Guards scandal, which is ex-
citing public interest to an unusual
degree" just now, is almost certain to
be discussed at an early date. Brom-
ley Davenport, member for Maccles-
field, has announced his intention to
ask for a rehabilitation of Colonel
kinloch as a much injured officer who
knew nothing Of the abuses occurring
in, his regiment. The government will
probably appeal to the house to leave
the affair absolutely in the handss of
Lord Roberts.
