Berlin, June S.-With the impending fall
Of Our Philip as Emperor William has
been wont TO style Prince Philip Zu
Gutenberg, his intimate and favorite, and
the threatened disclosures involved in his
last stand for respect before the world
in the prosecution Of Macmillan Harden
the Berlin editor, a scandal has been let
loose whose malOdorous fumes have
reached the very foot of the throne.
It promises 10 be in the way Of sensa-
tionaI disclosures Of German court secrets,
what the Dreyfus affair was to the
French army.
1t is an unparalleled story Of sybari-
tic debauchery after the practices of an
English playwright who died recently
by clique of men whose names are the
proudest in the empire. whose circle in
cluded as its dUpe the Emperor himself.
Country Is Aroused.
The climax of the revelations comes in
the assurance that the information which
has crept into the newspapers and so in
famed the country is given by lady of
lAAo MUMMY N4lO Va hhAAf VI AANl AAtAoDtlAlff
one Of the Round Table knights.
The ascendancy which a man Of the
personal and intellectual gifts of Prince
Philip Zu Gutenberg. who is a scholar
poet, diplomat and soldier, might gain
over the Emperor is readily understood.
The Emperor, who excels in many polite
accomplishments, has always been gen
erous admirer and patron Of his intel
Iectual peers.
The associates Of Gutenberg were men
Of note and distinction. bUT their chief
hold on the monarch seems TO have been
through his yearning after mysticism and
the study Of the occult. Blinded by the
appeal 10 his superstition. he was caught
in the mesh Of the plotters. who combined
political intrigue and unspeakable moral
obliquity.
To accomplish their own ends, they de-
Hberately played upon his interest in the
supernatural
Kaiser Loses Prestige.
While no personal blame attaches to the
Emperor, he has lost prestige enormously
because he has been imposed upon so
readily, yielding 70 the influence Of such
men in more than one political intrigue.
The first breath of the trouble came on
November q, 1906. when Maximilian Har-
den a noted pUbliclst and friend of Bis
marck, published in his paper. the Zu-
kunft, a cryptic dialogue. veiled to the
uninitiated. but sufficiently Illuminating
10 the Round Table Knights 10 strike ter
Tor 10 their hearts.
No one had the courage to broach the
matter 70 the Emperor. and finally the
crown prince brought the matter 10 his
fathers attention. The Emperor believed
that Harden was actuated by personal
malice against Gutenberg until within the
past few weeks, when his eyes were
opened to the practices Of his associates.

NIineola. Long Island. June S.-Mrs.
Clarence II. Mackay to-day sent large
organ to Sheriff Gildersl6eve. to be
used in the Nassau County jail Ii was

ans prison committee Of the Episcopal
Diocese Of Long Island, and week ago.

visited the Jail where she talked with
the woman prisoners. From them she

by the badly-out- -of-tune piano.

The reserve went to William Orr Bar

Ambrose Breeze. Of Philadelphia. who
pluckily stuck to the reins when the har-
ness loosened and the horses attempted
to bolt. but were stopped before they had
done any harm.
Most Of the drivers wore hats decorated
with flowing colored ostrich feathers. Civ
ing the lot the gayest appearance. The
only other interesting event tonight was

Substitute for Hal Chase a FdetOe in First
Victory OF Americas.

ATLANTA. Ga. March i5.--TWo thousand
persons Witnessed the defeat Of the Atlantas
at the hands of the New York Americans
at Piedmont Park this afternoon in the first
preliminary game of the season. From
baseball standpoint the game was decidedly
interesting. although Ghfith's players at
no time extended themselves.
The diamond was soft. made so by the
showers Of yesterday, and the going along
the base lines was trsacheTous. Despite
the sOggy condition of the ground the field
ing WAS splendid. The New Eorks were
bit shy in pulling of base hits. but this was
largely due TO the fact that the locals used
three twirleTs, and they kept mixing mp a
great assortment of curves
George MOriarity. who is holding down the
initial bag in the absence of Chase. was mixed
up in three double plays. one of which he was
largely responsible for himself He came in
on an attempted sacrifice, scoopsd the leather
up and got it in time TO get the runner going

received Elberfeds high throw, pulling it
down with one hand and retiring the batter.
Several times lac blocked wild throws. Out
of four times at bat he lined out three hits.
one of them being double. Moriarity
moved about with an air of confidence that
was most impressive and the other players
took liberties at times and for puRe deyilment
and also to put him to the test by fore ing him
to SCOOP up low throws.
The only run scored by the locals was
home run drive by Pa of Orth in the second
inning Orth and HoGg divided the pitch
between them. Both were effective when in
close quarters. Iaporte got back in his old
position at third but his arm was 40 lame
that he could hardly toss the ball to first
