the Empress had erected here monu-

There were all kinds of rumors con-
cerning the Emperor Williams instruc-

many people were afraid that it would
be removed from it's present place. Herr
Hasselreis, the scul ptor and the creator
of the monument, has addressed from
Copenhagen letter to a Berlin writer
with regard to the rumOrS. lie says:
cit is a quite remarkable fate that my
Heine statute was sold to the Empress
Elizabeth. 1t is remarkable for the rea-
son that it was prohibited 20 erect al
statute of the poet in Dusseldorf, and
because the money that the Empress
Elizabeth had given for the statute was
then returned to her On that account
she had resolved upon erecting statue
to Heinrich Heine on her own yet on
foreign soil. And now the German EN-
peror has bought that statue"
