letin issued today reports that Chan
celIor Won Buelow passed a good night
and Is progressing satisfactorily. Pc.
litical gossips are discussing the ques-
ton already as TO his successor as
Chancellor. The illness OF Prince Won
Buelow may easily react upon the in
ternational situation IN n way un-
favorable TO maintaining the peace OF
the world. The Kaiser visited Won
Buelow this morning. remaining at his
bedside for an hour. While the
Kaiser was scorchinE through the
streets in an automobile on the way
to see the Chancellor. his motor car
ran down and seriously injured Mrs
Burchard. the wife OF Il wealthy mer.
chant of this city. The Emperor leaped
from the car and rendered the first
aid. He helped to lift her into the au-
tomobIle. conveyed the woman to n
hospital and sent his own physician
to attend her. The Berlin chief OF
Police recently appealed to the En-
peror to instruct his chauffeur TO ex-
ercise more care In speeding through
the city streets. anticipating an acci-
dent to pedestrians or TO the Kaiser
himself.
