KAISER SERIOUSLY ILL

Especial Gable TO The Times Dispatch
PARIS. january S--There are the 81 ST
OF reasons FOR stating that all reports
rs 10 the nature of the Kaiser's illness
are merely based on surmisc. All that
IS officially known ny the allied gov
ernincnts Is that the Emperor is COM
pleteiy isolated. Which in itself is re-
gardcd as sufficient evidence that he
is seriously i'll. To say that he Is suf-
ferinc from cancer is merely guess
work. however.
The most complete secrecy surrounds
the Imperial bedchamber, and even
residents OF Berlin are unable TO oh

feet that Mr.. Carranza had agreed TO

equally so to the honesty OF which

Erettable that such rumors. coming

length, and is connected with Dublin
by means of the Grand and Royal
canals.
Although coal is found in most Of the
80 counties into which the island is
divided, and there is considerable
iron ore, mining is not an important
industry. Gold was being mined in
a modest way in County Wicklow at
the time of the rebellion of 1898, but
the works were destroyed and the
source of the metal has never been
re-discovered.
Industries of the Island.
Agriculture and stock raising are
the chief occupations of the inhabi-
tants. At one time the wooden manu-
features of the island were form1d-
able rivals of English factories, but
hostile legislation gave the industry a
check from which it has never recov-
cred. AS the Irish have raised flax
for centuries the manufacture Of linen
early became one of the important
industries Of the country. Irish
whisky is an important article of ex-
port and one of the largest breweries
in the world is located at Dublin. The
islands production of beer is three
and a half million barrels annually.
Shipbuilding in the great yards at
Belfast is one of the most widely
known of Irish activities, and the deep
sea and coast fisheries afford live
lihood for many thousands.
Thanks to the temperate influence
of the west winds from the Atlantic,
the thermometer rarely reaches freez-
ing point in winter, while the aver
age for a summer day is so degrees.
At Toor Head on the north the dis
lance to Scotland (Mull of Cantiri)
is only 1919 miles. The Giants Cause
way, a short distance to the east of
this point, is the outcropping basaltic
formation which in a former age
joined the two islands.
