UN|QUE-S SPECTACLE
IN bERL|N'S COURT
German Crown Princes OPP.
position to Fathers Policy
Rare Incident in Europe.

BERLIN. October 16.-The German
crown prince recently sent letter OF
protest to Imperial Chancello- Won Beth
mann-HOllweg against permission being
given to Prince Ernest August of Cum
berland. the husband Of the crown
princes only sister. to occupy the throne
Of the duchy Of B: unswick without his
express remuneration OF his pretensions
to the throne Of Hanover.
This protest has proved unsuccessful.
for the imperial chancellor today sent a
long reply to the crown prince. in which
he justified the position taken by the
Prussian government
AT the same time the Prussian govern
ment today formulated a resolution for
submission to the federal council Of the
German empire revoking its decision OF
1907 against any member Of the house OF
Cumberland occupying the future duke
dom Of Brunswick.
By his action the crown prince has
adopted an attitude of fiat opposition to
his father, the emperor. who has accept
ed Prince Ernest August Of Cumberland s
oath of allegiance and letters pledg.ng
himself not to support any measures to
detach Hanover from Prussia as ample
guarantees for the future
The spectacle of an heir to the throne
protesting in writing to the head of the
government against a policy adopted by
the sovereign has rarely occurred, and
the incident probably accounts for the
absence on October 3 of the crown
prince from the review by Emperor Will
liam of the hussar regiments at Dant-
siz, of which the crown prince commands
one, and from the luncheon at which
every other officer of the brigade was
present.
The situation possesses all the elements
of sensational dynastic family quarrel
particularly as since her marriage to
Prince Ernest August, Princess Victoria
Louise has adopted more extreme posi-
ton than her father.
