William ana Francis Joseph.

Vienna, June 6. Kaiser William ar
rived here this morning for his visit to
Emperor Francis Joseph. There is no
momentous political significance in his
visit, aud It is unlikely that any impor-
!snl speeches will be delivered during
his stay in Austria. The Kaiser, how
ever, is anxious to thank Francis Joseph
for the support given Germany at the
Algscirss conference on Moroccan affairs
aud to dissipste the effect of his mala-
droit telegram to foreign minister Goln-
choOwski, which caused so much com
ment. The present visit OF the German
ruler IS semi-privste. In order to avoid
any demonstrations, which might prove
offensive to Ita'y, the Kaiser crossed the
town in he underground railway instead
of driving ia carriage.
