from Switzerland and Italy con-
tinue to affirm that the illness of
Emperor William is serious. 1t was
stated that he was operated on last
Wednesday successfully but the

specified.
It Is stated that the emperor is
suffering from a deep seated at

tom, and that the malady is COM
plicated by the reappearance Of his
old throat trouble, which has ex-
tended to the mouth.
1t is even asserted that it will be
necessary to provide him with an
artificial palate Of silver.

Fort Dodge, Jan. 3.-Realizing that
one man in this country can plunge
the nation into war, Senator w. 8.
Kenyon here today declared the United
States should demand Of the secretary
Of state that he confer with others
before penningl notes to foreign powers
that may bring about a break in diplo-
matte relations and cause war to inn
pend.
George Washington, when president,
went to the senate and consulted in
executive session. This should be done
now when questions Of severing diplo-
matte relations impend. We are prone
to criticize foreign nations because
rulers send nations into war practical
ly without consulting any one" he said.
