The King concluded with warmly
expressed wishes for the prosperity OF
the German empire, and proposed the
health OF the Emperor and Empress.
The dinner was a brilliant spectacle.
King Edward sat between the Emper-
o. and Empress. with Queen AleXan-
dra at the Emperor's left. All the i'm
perial princes were present. Prince
Won Ruelow, the imperial councillor,
WAS seated opposite Their MaJestles
surrounded by the British suits and
the German ministers. The table was
strewn with red, white and blue flow
ers and the dinner service was of gold.
The Emperor wore the uniform OF
the British Royal Dragons. while the
King was attired as a Prussian gen
eral. The Empress appeared in white
and the Queen in black. Their MaJes-
ties and the princes conversed in Ger-
man throughout the repast. The foot
guards Band played selections OF
G. a.man and English melodies. After
the dinner Their Majesties held re-
ception and the Emperor bestowed dec
oretions on the members of the King $
suite and the British embassy. The
King received an ovation this after
noon as be procc edcd through the prin-
cpal streets of the city in an autOmo-

erences in the editorial columns, how
ever re-echo the peaceful sentiment
uttered by the Monarchs. All of the
newspapers publish extensive accounts
of the Kings reception and the fcstiv-

tions of the unemployed last evening
and some of them led to collisions
