May Expel Kaiser
German Emperor Due to Lose Honor Conferred Upon
Him by Queen Vctoria-Public Demand Strong
for Bestowa Upon King Albert of
Belgium
By P. M. SARL.

LONDON, Sept. 10 (by mail to New York).-The
Kaiser will lose his garter Such is the semofcal an
made here today.
The German ruler may be able to purchase hose sup
porters in Berlin, but English public opinion will not
permit him to retain the dainty jeweed ribbon bestowed
upon him by Queen Victoria, and which carries with it
in the oldest and most exclusive order of
chivalry in the world-rte Most Noble Order of the
Garter.
There is no doubt that the matter of removing the
banners of the Kaiser and the Crown Prince from the
Garter Chapel in Windsor Castle is being carefully
sdered by officials
There is precedent however, for expellng
foreign monarch High treason is the only crime that
justify expulsion and the leading authorities agree that
may be difficult to try monarch for treason to another
The last member of the order to be ANONYMOUSLY expelled
was John, Duke of Ornend, Jacobite nobleman, who
saved his neck by fleeing the country.

the American woman need have little
fear that she will be deprived of dis

deadlock of Paris styles.
Upon the variety of hats will depend
the success of many a millinery es-

in head sizes is a matter of even great

large enough to admit the fitting of
