2 THE DAILY RECORD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1908. No. 842. or<>:<S>:<gg^§ol^ Prince August Wilhelm of Prussia will arrive at Pots dam with the Princess on the 27th of the month. His Royal Highness will probably join the Government de partment there, for the purpose of studying administrative affairs, at the beginning of the New Year. Count Bernstorff’s appointment to fill the vacant am bassadorial post at Washington in place of the late Baron Speck von Sternburg has now been semi-officially ratified. Count Bernstorff was born in London in 1862. He is the son of a former German Ambassador in London, Count Albrecht Bernstorff. Like his predecessor at Washington, Count Bernstorff possesses one of the prime qualifications of success as a German representative in America, namely an American wife. He married Miss Jeanne Luckemeyer, of New York, in 1887. Count Bernstorff as a youth served in the 1st Regiment of Artillery Guards, but resigned to enter the Diplomatic Service. In his twenty-seventh year (1889) he was ap pointed Attache to the German Embassy at Constantinople, whence he was promoted to the Secretaryship of the Legation at Belgrade. He subsequently served succes sively as Secretary at Dresden, St. Petersburg, Munich, and—from 1902 until last year—in London. Members of the Diplomatic Corps in Berlin and Berlin society in general were the guests of the Foreign Cor respondents’ Association on Sunday night, at an interest ing social evening held in the newly opened fete-rooms at Lutter and Wegener’s Restaurant. Dr. Alexis Markow, representative of the St. Petersburg Telegraph Agency, wel comed the guests in a short speech during supper. Mr. Andre Meynot, representative of the Agence Havas, later spoke in honour of the ladies present. A good pro gramme was rendered by Richard Grossmann, a member of the Deutsches Theater, Paul Schneider-Dunker, and Frl. Anni Wuensch. Mr. Ellison van Hoose, an American tenor, recently gave a private recital before Professor Arthur Nikisch, conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. As a result Mr. Van Hoose, who is looking forward to an operatic career in Germany, has been engaged to sing on December 9 and 10 at the Leipzig Gewandhaus, the orchestra to be conducted by the celebrated director himself. Mr. Louis Lombard, the versatile American musician, financier, and author, of Chateau de Trevano, Switzer land, conducted the Philharmonic Orchestra on Saturday night, when Mr. Francis Macmillen, the Chicago violinist, made his third appearance in Berlin. Mr. Macmillen’s art seems better adapted for orchestral performances than for solo work, and his last concert was more successful than his first. A large and fashionable audience, including Ambassador Hill and the staff of the American Embassy, were present. Mr. Macmillen will give another concert in Berlin on November 21, when he will again be accompanied by orchestra. The well-known and popular Symphony Orchestra Con certs at the Philharmonic are proving as popuiar as ever this year among Americans. There are as usual two scales of prices, namely 1 Jf>. and 75 4. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur M. Waitt, of New York, enter tained friends at tea on Saturday afternoon at the Hotel Adlon, where they are staying. Among the newcomers from America who have established themselves in Berlin this autumn one of the most interest BERL IN ing personalities is Mr. Vernon Spencer, the well-known teacher. Mr. Spencer has returned to Germany after five years’ absence in America, and has brought back with him to Germany some pupils of exceptional ability, some of whom are studying with a view to becoming what Mr. Spencer terms “specialists” in pianoforte instruction; whilst others will, without doubt, soon be heard of as concert performers. Previous to going to America Mr. Spencer taught for nearly eight years in Leipzig, where he was also one of the most esteemed critics, writing for the Neue Zeitschrift fuer Musik, the critical journal founded by Schumann. In Mr. Spencer’s class nearly every country in the world was represented, even far away Japan sending the Misses Cecile and Margaret Rogers; New Zealand, Miss Muriel Waddell; South Africa,. Messrs. Jean Rosman di Ravelli and Robert and Adolph Holm; whilst his American pupils came from nearly every State in rhe Union. That especial protegee of Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, the late Gabrielle de Vosmaer, daughter of the Governor of Java, studied with Mr. Spencer during the entire time she was in Leipzig. Men as well known in the musical world as Dr. Edgar Istel of Munich, Herr Paul Kahl of Moscow, Herr Albert Contos of St. Petersburg (new Kapell meister at the Dresden Royal Opera), and Mr. Wilhelm Buesst of Melbourne, Australia, were enthusiastic pupils of his. Mr. Spencer has taken up his residence at Sieglinde Strasse 9, 1. It will interest our readers to learn that the youngest sister of the Empress, Princess Feodora of Schleswig- Holstein Sonderburg-Augustenburg, is making a name for herself in the literary world as a novel writer. The Princess writes under the pseudonym of “F. Hugin,” and her novel “Hahn Berta” has been accorded favourable criticism by the press. The news of Princess Feodora turning into a novel writer created considerable surprise in Court circles. A series of short stories entitled “Im Walde,” and a second novel, “Durch den Nebel,” have recently appeared. Princess Feodora was the only sister of the Empress born in Kiel; she is married to Prince Frederic Leopold, and their residence is at Krongut Born- stedt, near Potsdam. Mrs. Cleves-Symmes, Motz Strasse 29, has issued cards for an evening reception next Saturday in honour of Mr. and Mrs. Waitt. ' General Booth of the Salvation Army has returned to London in the best of health from his trip to South Africa. The General will visit Berlin this month and intends to lecture on the 17th inst. in Keller’s Festsaal on “Social problems,” and on the 18th at 3.30 and 8 p. m. at the Circus Busch on “The different classes of population in the British colonies of South Africa.” An amusing anecdote is being told in Berlin of the Kaiser. While in the Tiergarten, His Majesty noticed something white in his path, and stooping down found to his surprise that it was a snow white starched shirt apparently fresh from the laundry. The Kaiser banded the find over to the gentleman who was in attendance upon him, with a view to its being given to the first policeman they met, but before they had gone far they overtook an old washerwoman from whose basket the garment had dropped. When she saw who was the finder she was almost overcome, and received back her lost property with great volubility and many curtsies. Sundays: 11 a.m. CHURCH SERVICES: BERLIN. S.

(Continued from page 1.) | THE LONDON.PRESS . ON GERMAN^POLICY. London, November 11. The Standard, commenting on the interpellations in the Reichstag on Tuesday and Prince Bulow’s speech, writes: “We accept with pleasure and with out reserve the assurances of Prince Biilow and the other speakers in the German Reichstag that the majority of the German people is not Anglophobe. Hitherto that has not been fully believed. Gladly do we assure Prince Biilow that the Emperor was ’n error when he thought that he is misunderstood or misjudged in England, or that the English people do his Majesty great injustice in questioning the purity of the ideals or the sincerity of the intentions and feelings that guide him in his onerous task. We fully share in the wish to cultivate close rela tions between the two peoples. We admire the man ly way in which Prince Biilow defended the Em peror and shielded his subordinates. We may be permitted to welcome also the assurance that strict ly constitutional points of view will be held in con ducting the foreign policy of Germany.” The Morning Post, in an article on the agree ment between France and Germany, says: “The agreement between France and Germany affords deep satisfaction to the people of Great Britain. It must be acknowledged that German policy is not so un reasonable as it has been supposed to be. The Im perial Chancellor said that the Emperor has en deavoured to bring about friendly relatinos between the two countries. Such endeavours have not been made known since the Boer war. Friendly overtures on the part of the German Government have never 1 been heard of, except at the time of the Venezuelan incident.” The Daily Chronicle, writing on the same sub jects, remarks: “The settlement of the Casablanca dispute is a triumph of simple logic. We welcome the friendly feelings for England expressed by Prince Biilow and all the speakers in the German Reichstag, and we sincerely hope that German policy, in ac cordance with the feelings expressed Tn* the Reichs tag, may be such as to have further results. It would contribute to the general satisfaction if German po licy becomes more uniform.” NO ASCENT MADE BY THE EMPEROR. Friedrichshafen, November 10. The report that the Emperor made a voyage in the Zeppelin airship was based upon the fact of the Prince zu Fuerstenberg, who was also wearing Jaeger uniform, having been mistaken for his Majesty. The mistake was due to the great distance from the airship at which the Press representatives were kept at Manzell, and further to a conviction which prevailed at Count Zeppelin’s office at Friedrichshafen that the Kaiser was in the gondola. The truth was only known after the descent of the ship. THE DUKE OF THE ABRUZZI. Turin, November 10. The Duke of the Abruzzi has received a touching cable gram from Senator Elkins on the occasion of the anni versary of the death of His Royal Highness’s mother. THE CASABLANCA INCIDENT. Paris, November 10. The Temps writes with reference to the agreement* in the matter of the Casablanca dispute:—“In submitting their differences to the decision of a third party, the French and German Governments have offered to the world a spectacle that is not without grandeur. When one con siders what it is that has divided the two countries in the earlier as well as the recent past, when one recalls their serious strife, one must recognise that their efforts for peace are particularly meritorious. It would be childish to assume that France and Germany will never again have difficulties to solve at the many points where they touch each other. The main point is that they are gaining the conviction that those difficulties are not insoluble, pro vided that they are treated with moderation and on the footing of mutual equality.” SERIOUS ACCIDENT AT A LAUNCH. Stettin, November. 10. The ceremony of launching the steamer “George Washing ton” did not pass off without accident. Fifteen persons were caught by the wave caused by the great ship as she entered the water and were dashed against the stands that had been erected on the opposite bank of the river. All the fifteen were seriously hurt. AMERICAN MEAT PACKERS AND THE ARGENTINE. (From our New York correspondent.) According to reports from Buenos Ayres, an im pression prevails there that the meat packing firms of Chicago are trying to secure the control of the Argentine meat market. In Chicago the report is strenuously denied. In the Argentine capital, how ever, where the increase in the cattle and meat trade of the country has in the last few years risen to the point of competition with the Northern market, the trade authorities maintain that American capi talists have recently bought up one slaughter-house in Buenos Ayres and that more will shortly pass in to their hands.
