II Watching for the next move OF
~ the all-powerful Princes trust.
which Is being so darlngly and
iramphantly run by the kaiser's three
lnilmate friends, Prince Max Egon zu
Nerstenberg. Prince Christian Kraft
Won Hoheniche. and Prince Guido
Henckel Won Donnersmarck The Prin-
ces trust is far the greatest trust in
Germany; II Is indeed the only Euro
pean trust OF American magnitude:
and moreover. II is the first trust in the
world to be run by serene hghnesses,
who are even birthy," as Germans
say, with all the sovereigns Of Europe,
and two Of whom are related by blood
TO the kaiser, the Austrian emperor.
and half a dozen OF Germany's minor
ulng potentates.
The trust il only two years old. II

The Princes trust is Europe's most
ambitious attempt to do what so far
only America has done in the way of
s s.i But as Europe has no
thu-trust law the Fuerstenberg- Hohen-
.ehe-Donnersmarck trust knows no
unit to its activities. II is as free
