SHOWS kAlsER's COURT WAYS.
New Book Indicates He is Bored by
Weiuhty Interviews.

WSI9USy 5NOS0TVtSWSs
Berlin, Nov 16.---A new book en-
titled "Our Kaiser and His People"
by an anonymous author, who evident
l.. is intimate in court circles, processes
to give piquant details of the emper-
or's way when dealing with his min
listers. He especially criticises his
fondness. for so-called Americanism.
The kaiser, according to the writer.
is quickly bored by the state dignitar-
les like Count Posad dowsky who try to
go deeply into the subject of their
official audiences. In such cases the
kaiser pays little attention to them,
but plays round the room with his
favorite dogs He is hugely delighted
when the animals dash between the
minister's legs, nearly upsetting him.
His majesty refers 10 such dignitaries
as wearisome fellows and dried up bu-
reaucrats.
The secret of Chancellor Won Bulow's
power is that, knowing this, he rarely
touches upon any particular subject,
devoting himself to general conversa-
ton The kaiser, on these occasions. IS
full of the widest suggestions regard
ing his foreign and domestic policy.

figure demanded by the big fellow and
Manager McCarey was FORCED to pay It

a portion of the amount.
.Jeffries realizes that he will be al
most as strong a card as either of the
battlers and makes; his price in ac-
cordance. There is an additional argu-
ment too in the fact that If the men
had not agreed on Jeffries it is doubt
full if they could have agreed on any
.body else without &. strong argument
and there is an effort being made at
tho nresent time to avoid further dis
putes between the fighters.
The men are working nicely in their
training quarters and great interest Is
being shown in the battle.
