LoSpoN, Dec. 9.--The correspondent
OF the Daily Moi! at Copenhagen tele-

IL learn from Berlin that the ka!ser's
unexpected and secret return TO Berlin
was due to his health, although his con-
dition is not at all serious and does not
prevent his having long daily confer
ences with the headquarters staff and
Gen. Won Falkenhayn. the Minister OF
War, who also is in Berlin.
The Kaiser's illness is mainly OF a
psychological character. and is due to
the strain OF the past months of con-
tinuous anxiety caused by unceasins
miscalculations and hopes not realized
coupled with a slight chill. He was in
this condition when he arrived at the
eastern front three weeks ago and wit
messed the German reverse.
His nervousness was then visible 20
everybody and the chill made II neces-
sary for him to withdraw TO Berlin As
his unexpected return aroused comm n {

IN Berlin for a short sojourn.'
The secrecy with which his return
TO Berlin was surrounded seems TO sup
port the theory that there was some
urgent reason for Withholding the tri-
umphal welcome Of the people which
undoubtedly would have been rendered
on the first visit since the war began.
