BEAUTY Wins HAND
OF kA|sER'S COUSIN
Story of Their Love Won Consent OF
Emperor, Despite Brides
Inferior Rank.

BERLIN, June l1.-Princess Agatha
Won Ratibor, one Of the most beauti
, full girls in Berlin society, and Primes
Frederick Wilhelm Of Prussia, q sec
ond cousin Of Emperor william, were
married at the New Palace In Pots
dam. DR.. Dryarder, the court preacher
performed the ceremony. following
which Empress Auguste victoria
placed the Prussian princess crown
upon the head OF the bride. The nup'
tails were witnessed by many mem
bers OF royalty from the minor Ger
man. states.
The bride is the elder daughter OF
the Duke Won Ratibor. and Is % years
OF age. The prince Is the third son
OF the late regent OF Brunswick. His
two elcer brothers preferring to live
abroad, Frederick was appointed by
the emperor administrator OF the I'm
nense properties of the regent.
The wedding Is the result OF a time
ly appeal 10 the romantic in the many
sided nature OF Emperor William made
last New Years day.
Prince Frederick has long loved the
Duchess Agatha, but as the latter IL
a member Of a merely minor branch
of the Hohenlohe family, she was not
regarded as suitable partner In mat
rimony for a member of the imperial
house under the strict court rules
which the kaiser has invariably lived
up to during his reign. Moreover, the
Ratibors are Roman Catholics, while
the brides OF Hohenzollern princes
must be Professionals.
Against all appeals and persuasion
the kaiser had remained firm. and tho
hapless Prince Frederick and tbs
Duchess Agatha had agreed to wall
for each other to the end OF theil
lives If they were unable to win con
sent TO their union.
Friends and sympathizers had the
happy thought to make a final appea
to Emperor William. These friends
who occupy high places, contrivet
that the story of the undying love ~
Prince Frederick and Duchess Agathi
should be told to the emperor at {
moment when he was susceptible L
romantic suggestions, and at the very
moment Of the birth OF the new yea
poured their tale into his ears.
The kaiser hcsitated. and then aban
doned all opposition to the wedding
sealing his determination with a tele
gram TO the Duke Won Ratibor stating
that his daughter would be welcomet
as the bride or Prince Frederick.
