Madrid, Oct 1.-The palace author ities have been ordered to prepare for the departure of King Alfonso to Ger many November 3. The King will re- main in Berlin from November to November 12, attending elaborate fes- tivities, military review and a hunt.
 The Premier, General Montero Ries, will probably accompany the King. whose departure for Germany, imme- diately following President Loubet's g visit to Madrid. attracts comment. since the Premier's accompanying his majesty indicates that questions of state will be considered in Germany. However, the Kings visit to Germany was arranged long ago and is gener- ally believed to be connected with the matrimonial projects of the Spanish royal family.
