Won BUELoW NOT SURE.
Persistent Berlin Rumors That HI
Will Retire as Chancellor.

BERLIN, November I'm spite of the
fact that Crown Prince Frederick Will
liam visited Chancellor Won Buelow this
morning. which is an indication that the
chancellor retains the imperial favor.
there are many rumors current that the
chancellor will persist in retiring as an
outcome of the publication Of the now
famous interview with the emperor that
appeared in the Daily Telegraph of Lon
don. Various statesmen are mentioned
to succeed him.
Herr Won Observation-Disclosures. German
minister at Bucharest, Rumania, has been
summoned to act as foreign secretary
during the illness of Herr Won Schoen.
which promises to be protracted. Herr
Won Kiderien- Waechter, who is known
for his wit. was formerly one of Emperor
Williams most intimate friends. This
was when he was stationed at Ham
burg: but he came into certain disfavor
because he made his majesty the object
of an untimely jest. AS a result he was
transferred to Bucharest, but he has
since won back his position of conf
dence.
