The circular in question is got
ten UP in the form OF a newspaper
and is devoted to a series Of at
tacks on a number OF citizens. A
peculiar angle in connection with
the circular, which bears the sig
nature of an ex minister. is that
IT attacks a number Of persons. the
majority of whom are not candi-
dates for political offices.
Written in a rambling. incoherent
manner, the circular is replete with
the abbreviated language OF the
gutter and bar room.

encourage at the former war lords
castle but there will be blackness
in her heart.
The Intensity of the Princess bit
terness is eQualled only by her de-
termination TO get even with those
who made this day of Joy" one in
which she feels that the whole world
Is against her.
Rermine-to put II succinctly-
came to Doom with the defiant will
TO win and punish. In a two hour
interview in the drawing room Of
her castle at Saabor. in Silesia, she
had poured out her heart to the
correspondent but begged that her
revelations and her declarations ito
get even" not be printed until she
left Germany and arrived in Hol-
land.
Consequently. her interview can
be given to the public today
The correspondent asked the
Princess:
What about that mysterious
trunk which is said to have arrived
IN Doom the other day. it was said
TO contain the crown which the for
mer kaiser is personally to place up
on your head"
A bitter. jerky laugh was the
first reaction from the question.
For a moment. the princess struS-
gled with herself and then no longer
able 70 master the emotion which
repeatedly throughout the interview
threatened to overwheIm her, she
arose and Joined her hands high
above her head Gazing upward at
the ceiling with an air Of despair
she burst into tears.
Then midst convulsive sobs she
exclaimed:
80 that Is the latest lief T sup
pose they want to make me out a
vain, ambitious creature, What is
1t you call 1t in the United States !?
oh. yes. 'vamped the kaiser. A
crown? A crown of thorn perhaps.
They have already poisoned my wed
ding. They have given me a fore
taste Of hell upon EARTH
Asked whom she meant by they
the princess gradually Gained down
and explained:
IT mean those who, for selfish or
%
posed to our marriage. They have
tried TO prevent it by every con-
ceivable means but most notably by
foul slander and diabolIcal tntri-
gues.
And. mind YOU. such towards are
they that did not dare to utter a
reep in the presence of the kaiser.
but took out all their wrath and
venom upon me.
Yes, among those who fought and
Inundated me are some of the kais-
er's own relatives. but they are no,
the worst. They are fighting and
have been doing so more or less in
the open.
Chief opposition has come from
schemers who felt that they would
be cheated of their spoils' or fear
ed for their jobs"
Princess Hermine's lips frightened,
her eyes pashed hatred while she
doubled up her jewelled hands into
two small but angry little fists.

of all. are the Camarilla." she snap

ser today Is just as much isolated
as he was throughout his reign in
Germany. He Is isolated by a cor

him and play their own game all the
time. They are parasites. They live
upon him (the kaiser). They do not
really serve him. They never tell
their real opinion. except behind his
back"
