tho magnihcenco of the spectacle pre-
scented.

For many years past, the Socialist
daily paper, the Post. at Munich. has
always been exceptionally we'll in
formed about matters relating to the
reigning house of Bavaria. and the In
mer Ife OF the court. The news pub
lished by the Socialist journal ALWAYS
turned out to be correct and the ef
forts OH the part OF the police. at tho
instance of the late prince regent and
OF his successor, to ascertain the source

place OF the septuagenarian Baron
Philip Won Redwitz. grand marshal of

his death. described him. with profess
sions of profound regret of his demise.

reignins house and the court to this

socialism. The Redwitzes are very
old family, which trace back their orr

noble. who died in 1l79. Many OF
Its members are connected in an official
capacity with the court, or form part
of the household of one or another Of
! the members of the reigning family
Their position has naturally become
somewhat uncomfortable since the
revelations concerning their ltnsman,
the late Baron Philip Won Redwitz.
