DANGEROUS APPROACH
TO LESE MAJESTE
Eavarian Statesman Thinks the EN-
peror is Officous.

BERLIN, Jan. 19-Herr Schaedler,
a Bavarian member of the Centre par
ty, discussed in the reicnStag today
the telegram sent by Emperor William
to Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria
last summer, expressing his majesty's
deep Indignation at the refusal of the
Bavarian diet to vote $4,000 for art
purposes. Herr Schaedler sharply crit
icised Emperor Williams act as ire
spOnsible interference in the internal
affairs of an individual state. He final
ly put direct question to Chancellor
Won Buelow as to how he proposed to
prevent the recurrence of such Incl
dents
Count Won BueIow replied that as
chancellor he was responsible only
for the official utterances of the en-
peror which he was required to coun-
tersign, and that beyond these limits
the emperor had full liberty, like every
other Prussian, to express his personal
views. Herr Schaedler having init
mated that his majesty's action was
dangerous to the stability of the en-
pire, Count Won BuelOW said:
Il express the hope that the mem
bers of all parties will avoid utter
ances calculated to raise doubts abroad
regarding the unity of the empire and
regarding the devotion OF the people
TO, and their love of, the imperial idea
This idea is embodied in the dearest
recollecions of the German people and
1t represents our world position. In
the future nobody should be left in
doubt that our people are holding fast
to the imperial idea. and that it is IN
shaken and inviolate"
The refusal Of the Bavarian diet to
vote funds asked by the government
for art purposes drew sharp public
censure from Emperor William, who
offered personally to furnish the sum
required. In the telegram to Prince
Luitpold, referred to in the above dis
patch, Emperor William said:
Il have read with the deepest indig-
nation Of the refusal Of the Bavarian
diet to vote the sum which you asked
for art l hasten to express my dis
pleasure at the mean ingratitude dis
played by this action to the house of
Wiettelsbach and to your august per-
son. therefore beg to be allowed TO
place at your disposal the sum you
require"
Prince LUitpcld replied, expressing
his thanks for the emperOr's interest,
but said the requisite sum had been
placed at his disposal by a member of
the Bavarian legislature.

ton of more of the vapor than would other
wise be condensed. This has the effect
of ~producinug local and somewhat periodic
floods as long as such conditions continue.
Rain has the effect of washing and cleans
ing the air, which, of necessity, checks the
amount of rainfall until the air is once
more overcharged with dust and impurities,
when it may again begin to rain In tor
rents. The present flood district is likely
to spread away to the north and northeast,
as these dust, vapor-laden currents migrate
farther and farther north with the move
ment of the sun, and continue until the
air is thoroughly washed and cleansed of
this ove~rabundance of dust. These scien-
tihc meteorological conditions being true,
the rainfall of the whole country is likely
to be more irregular than usual, as long
as the volcanoes in the West Indies and the
Central American states remain active.
