DENOUNCED BY EMPEROR
William Hears of Grandson's Birth in
Casual Way.
MESSAGES WERE FORGOTTEN
German Minister at Christiania Goes
Important kilograms.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
CHRISTIANIA December IA remark
able story is in circulation about the man
ner in which Emperor William learned Of
the birth Of his grandson. The kaiser, so
the story runs, was cruising on the Hohen-
zollern in Norwegian waters and anchored
off Bergen. where DR.. Oscar Stuebel the
German minister at Christiania. went
aboard. There was much speculation
among the courtiers as to how the kaiser
would receive the minister, owing to the
fact that he had been obliged to quit the
colonial office in disgrace. The emperor,
however, greeted DR.. Stuebel quite cor
daily, showing that the plumbers in states
manship of which the minister had been
accused had not deprived that official of his
imperial masters personal favor.
DR.. Stuebel and the German consul at
Bergen were even commanded to remain
to lunch, and during a momentary CONVEX
sational pause the consul casually re-
marked:
1.-THE flags flying in the town ought to
show your majesty how the Norwegian
people rejoice over the birth Of your au-
gust grandson"
The Kaiser's Wrath.
This natural remark under the circum-
stances gave the emperor the HTSt lHtlfIld-
ton of the birth Of baby son to the
crown princess. The emperor pounded the
table with his fist so that the plates and
the glasses clattered, and turning to DR..
Stuebel. who sat next to him. exclaimed:
Fellow, must I learn this news merely
as an item of casual gossip?
Every one present looked at the unfortu-
nate, Stuebel, who turned pale as the tauie
cloth and tremblingly confessed that he had
forgotten 400 kilograms which had arrived
at Bergen for the emperor. The emperor
flushed a deep red, sprang up from his
chair, and, ordering all present to remain
seated. fastened to the adjoining saloon.
cool his wrath
Messengers steamed full speed ashore to
bring the kilograms The first one the
emperor opened was from Abdul Hamid,
and requesting the messenger to bring a
telegraph blank, and apparently regainng
his good humor, the kaiser, addressing a
dispatch to the crown prince, wrote:
II have just learned from the sultan that
a son has been born to YOU.
= From that moment DR.. Stuebel was abso-
lutely boycotted by every one on board the
imperial yacht. He was obliged for the
sake of etiquette to remain on board during
the entire cruise, but the emperor never
spoke to him at all and absolutely ignored
his presence. The courtiers, taking their
cue from their imperial master, likewise
boycotted. Germany's diplomatic representa-
tive at Christiania.
DR.. Stuebel thus had time to reflect that
after committing mistakes in administra-
ton he could still obtain a diplomatic ap-
pontment but that after perpetrating a
blunder which affected his ruler personally
his fate as a diplomat was sealed.

NOBEL PEACE AWARD
MANY SCANDINAVIANS WANTED
1T FOR KARLsTAD COMMISSION.

NEW YORK, December 17.-That the
Norwegian storthing did not bestow the
Nobel peace prize on President Roosevelt
with public opinion in that country and
Sweden, where the great Nobel benefac-
lions originated undivided in approval of
the award. is plain from advices received
in the last few days from Scandinavia.
For some months before the bestowal of
the prize there had been considerable agi-
tation in favor of awarding the peace prize
to the so-called "Karlstad commission
the group of Swedish and Norwegian
statesmen who arbitrated the differences
between Sweden and Norway at the time
of the breach, and who negotiated the
peaceful separation of the two countries.
The well-known Norwegian authoress
Elizabeth Schoyen, led the fight on the
Norwegian side The keynote of her ar
gument was that ounce of prevention
was better than a pound of cure, and
she pointed out that the joint commission
had halted on the brink of a dangerous
crisis situation which would have led
to a that would have been disastrous
in its consequences to both of the Scan
dnavian countries, while President Roose
welt merely was the means of ending a
war after all the damage had been done.
War Narrowly Averted.
In connection with this, a hitherto sup
pressed chapter of the Karlstad negotia-
tons has been brought to light which
shows how acute the situation was at one
time. The two governments, realizing that
if the episode had become public at the
time it occurred it would in all probability
have brought on the war which both were
so anxious to avert, did all in their power
to keep il secret, and tits only now that
all the danger is considered past that
| the veil has been partly lifted and glimpse
| of what occurred has been afforded to
formation.
