KAISER HARD

The All-Highest Economizing The Court Marshal of the ex-Kaiser, in a statement issued recently at Doorn, points out the unfavourable financial condition of the former Emperor.

Owing to the fact that all the proper ties of the Hohenzollern muy included in the private fortune of the ex-Kaiser and other members of the Imperial family have been seized by the Prussian Government and that the negotiations between the Crown and the State have not been concluded, the ox-Kaiser, he says, is obliged to live from money forwarded from Germany, for which he must first get Dutch guilders.

The aissor, who, notwithstanding the low rate of the mark,, shows great interest in charitable institutions in Germany as well as in Holland (continues the statement), sees himself compelled to economise as much as possible and to decline requests reaching him from Germany asking for relief.

Stones. It never comes now. The Order must have roiled elsewhere.
