KAISER'S ILLNESS
CALLS HIS SON
TO ACT AS REGENT
Crown Prince Said to Have Been Sum-
moned to Berlin from Front--No
Authentic News of Rulers
Condition.

| Rome. Jan. l3.--Uneonfrmed advices
from Swiss sources yesterday reported
that the German crown prince has been
recalled to Berlin, probably to assume
the regency on account of the kaiser's
illness. 1t was stated that the reports
reached Switzerland directly from Ber-
lin,
The duke of Abragna, brother law
of Prince Won Buelow, former German
chancellor who has been living in Switz-
erland for several months, is quoted here
as saying that the prince has been sum-
moned suddenly to Berlin on account OF
the illness of the emperor.
Rome dispatches few days ago said
it was learned there on good authority
that the kaiser's illness was not serious
and that he would be out within few
days. Within the last "a hours, how
ever, rumors that the kaiser's condition
was serious have been revived. News
agencies with correspondents in Berlin
have made unsuccessful attempts to Sc
cure an authentic statement regarding
the kaiser's condition.
London, Jan. l3.-The impossibility of
learning the kaiser's real condition is
fostering rumors that he is dying or
dead. The Daily Mail ridicules these
likening them to the rumors
that Cossacks were in England on their
way to the western front early in the
war
Stories, of which there is no confirma
r
ness of the emperor's condition, continue
to be printed in Holland, Switzerland |

Last Sunday night there was blast
at Carney's Point which killed three
men and on Monday there was an ex-
plosion at the Hagley yards and another
at Carney's Point.
''[fhe large number Of explosions at
this time" said representative of the
company, SIS undoubtedly due to the
fact that the company's force is one
hundred times as great as when the
European war broke out and there is
much more work is being done. 1t is
also fact that nearly all OF the orders
are hurried and it is also true that some

Chairman Stone of the foreign rela-

ferring to what he termed the sad
affair, the horrible crime of irresponsi.

such outrages by masked bandits often
