Sunday That at least is what she told
the correspondent of the Daily Ex-
press today.
Il know I love the Kaiser she said.
Surely he is not so rich that 1t can
be said that l am marrying him for his
money"
The Princess said that lot OF other
women were anxious for the heart OF
the former German Emperor and de-
scribed how mad some of them were
with envy and jealousy when her en-
gagement to William got noised around
the world by telegraph and cable.
Tried to Hinder
They did their best to hinder our en-
gagement by intrigue" she said. Il
had a hard fight. All of my friends
and so-called friends had their own
nlans. You know, several prominent
women including the widow of Colo
mel Won @Rochow thought of marrying
the Kaiser"
I'm her most charming manner, the
Princess converses with the cores
pondent at the old Silesian castle
which is her ancestral home. She told
him a little about the romance and OF
her plans for the future.
'sIt WAS like this" she said. some
friends, who were in attendance 10 the
Kaiser and who knew of our child
hood attachment invited me to his
home at Doom The crown prince
came to Doom also and in the friend
liest sort of way he chatted with me
about the affair of the heart. With
laugh he said: You know my fatner
is a very good man. but sometime ne
is hard to get along with.
Knows How to Manage
"A few weeks later the Grown Prince
came to talk to me again. He sald'
Now | have watched you all this tlme'
and | feel 1t my duty to tell you my
warnings were all wrong. You surely
know how TO manage people ana the
whole situation here.
The princess told the correspondent
that the house at Doorn was belng
conducted along very economical
lines. Indeed, she exclaimed, the
meats set on the former emperor $
table were occasionally so scanty that
they almost looked beggarly. Never
theless the princess declared sne
would adhere to the strict principles
of economy which have been in force
since the former kaiser took up MS
residence in Holland.
do you think you will miss your
SiIesian homer" the correspondent IN
quired.
Signed Agreement
"Oh, no." said the princess, nave
a signed agreement with the kaiser
allowing me to stay twice year, eight
weeks each time at Sabor and my
other estates in order to keep in touch
with my children who are going 10 re-
main in Germany. Besides | have TO
manage the estates because they are
to be kept separate from the imperial
property.
'As a matter of fact the economic
arrangement for the marriage at flrst
frightened some people. but now every
thing is settled and nobody Will com
plain"
The princess said all the former
kaiser's children were going to attend
the wedding. Field Marshal Won Hin

profound Sympathy /.
Expressed by Reed
In Answering Wilson

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo-, May 10.
United States Senator James A.
Reed, candidate for nomination and
reelection, in a campaign address
here last night, said he regretted to
have, to mention the name Of former
President Wilson, but that he had
profound sympathy for the former
president in his illness"
There has been much misunder-
standing about my differences with
the former president" Senator Reed
declared. He asserted that the state
ment that he voted against every
thing the former president wanted
was both untrue and unjust.
He said he was criticized for fight
ing the former president because he
insisted upon hearings of the federal
reserve bill which bankers declared
would plunge the country into a
panic unless amended in many par
ticularS.
Senator Reed discussed what he
declared was tendency toward CEN
traltzation of government, and de-
cIared that was just the opposite Of
what was intended by the founders
of the government.
