SUNDAY AMERICAN’S SPECIAL CABLE BETTERS RECEIVED EROM ALL THE GREAT CAPITALS OF EUROPE
MftTCHMAKERS OF
Princess Victoria Louise and the
Duke of Cumberland To Be
Married This Week.
PRESENTS WORTH MILLIONS
Hotels Crowded With Noble Rep
resentatives and Secret Serv
ice Agents From All Over.
Special Cable to The American.
BERLIN, May 17.:—With every
prominent hotel of Berlin crowded
with diplomats, royalty, nobles and
ordinary visitors, and the city and
vicinity overflowing with secret
agents and secret police of about
every country of Europe, and still
more to come, everything is in readi
ness to-day for the wedding next
week of Princess Victoria Louise, only
daughter of the Kaiser, to Prince
Ernst August, son of the Duke of
Cumberland.
So crowded have conditions become
that the Kaiser was compelled to
make reservations at hotels for some
of his most distinguished royal guests.
The first and second floors of the
Hotel Adlon have been reserved for
his three sisters and Prince and Prin
cess Henry of Prussia, who, by the
way, celebrate on the day of the wed
ding their’own silver anniversary. A
large part of the suite of King George
and Queen Mary of Great Britain w ill
also be quartered at the Hotel A^llon.
Secret Service Agents.
Mysterious strangers with Russian
accent's drop off every train. They
are Russian secret police, here to pro
tect the Czar and Czarina. German
secret agents scrutinize all arrivals
for possible anarchists, nihilists or in
ternational thieves, for probably never
before has there been so great a
gathering of royalty, peers and the
Just plain wealthy.
Wedding gifts valued at miUjpns qf
dollars “have been arriving for some
time past, and these gifts are protect
ed as only are the members of the
royal housidlrtl
On every side there is a hustle and
bustle evidencing very plainly the
close approach of some signal event.
Many different languages are heard
upon the streets, and the least of
these is not English. Many Americans
are here and with lavish use of money
have rented hotel suites the equal
in luxury of those, reserved for the
royal guests.
The marriage of the Princess Louise
and Prince Ernst will he a case of
reconciliation of the Capulets and
Montagus, uniting once more the
house of Hohenzollern and the Bruns-
wick-Lineburg branch of the house
of Guelph.
After many days of labor the prin
cess' trousseau is at last in readiness.
This bridal garment Is most gorgeous.
No detail has been overlooked. It is
said here that for patriotic reasons
the trousseau was made in this city,
but it has been learned that the de
sign and much of the lace came from
Paris.
Gala Opera Wednesday,
On Thursday next the celebration
of the wedding to last three days
will commence with a gala opera
evening. On the following day a ban
quet of state will take place, and on
the dav after that the ceremony will
be performed. The civil ceremony
will take place in the new marble
palace at Potsdam, but the religious
ceremony will be performed in this
Cit ”f shall choose my bridesmaids.”
said the girl whom Berliners have
delighted to call Prinzesschen, "little
princess," and her royal and imperial
father, who bows to nobdy else on
earth, bowed his assent.
Attendants upon the princess will
be four of the most beautiful prin
cesses of Europe. They are Princess
Mary, daughter of King George and
Queen Mary of Great Britain: the
Grand Duchess Olga, oldest daughter
of Czar Nicholas of Russia; Princess
Yolanda of Italy, and the Princess
Elizabeth, daughter of King Charles
of Roumania. I
These princesses are of distinct
types of loveliness. Princess Mary,
who is second cousin of the bride-to-
be, is fair Hairdd, with the ruddy,
healthy complexion of which so many
English girls boast. Princess Mary
was ifi years old last month. Grand
Duchess Olga will be 18 years old
next November; she, too, is a second
cousin of Princess Victoria. Louise.
The Grand Duchess is a pronounced
brunette with somber hair and eyes.
Princess Elizabeth, of Roumania, who
is nearly 20. is of the brilliantly clear
Caucasian type and is almost as
lovely as her mother, the famous
Princess Marie. Princess Yolanda,
of Italy, is the youngest of the quin
tette, only 12. She inherits the beauty
of her mother, Queen Elena, that
Princess who brought to the house
of Savoy the revivifying blood of
Montenegro.
What Will They Wear?
“What will they wear at the wed
ding?" half the maidens in Europe
are asking each other. Alas, it is
impossible to gratify tiieir natural
curiosity. A description of the brides
maids' gowns could not be dragged
with hot pincers from the artists in
dress who are creating them.
It is known, however, that the
bride’s gown Is of white satan point
applique of conventional cut. with a
train four yards long. The cost of
the gown and the train and the lace,
which has been especially hand-mad-,
will not exceed $1,000. The Prin
cess' veil, on which many giris in
the Silesian lace school worked for
many weeks, cost $600. Indeed, the
bride's trousseau is of rich but sim
ple elegance; those of the daughters
of German captains of 'ntliisiry and
of German millionaires have cost ten
times as much.

Little Coat Charms
London's Smart Set
Made of Futurist Silk It Carries
Beholders Back* to Grand
mother’s Days.
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON, May 17.—The “little
coat” has become an indispensable
part of the .smart women’s toilette
and, as there is no limit just now
in regard to color, it can he adorned
with touches of what is now called
futurist shades.
A particularly original gown is be
ing made for Mrs. Guy Laking, whose
husband is the King’s armorer. The
skirt is of black satin souple, slit
upon the left where it is caught in
soft folds and supplemented with a
pretty little corsage of fresh pink
chiffon, veiled with a cloud of black
chiffon and adorned with little sets
of pin tucks.
Sandwiched between these two
filmy veilings are threaded ribbons
in pale wild rose pink and sunset
blue, which are knotted here an^
there with rosebuds, or spring for
get-me-nots, or both, slipped through
the knots.
The crowning feature of the toil
ette is, however, the “little coat.”
This is brocaded black eharmeuse,
embossed with quaint old world gold,
a design which, carries one back to
the days of her grandmother. The
coat is supp’emented with a wide
Medici collar of gold lace and little
bright levers of futurist silk In many
colors. A fold' of futurist silk holds
a belt of filmy gold lace.

at Every Fashionable Occa
sion—Teachers Hired.
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON, May IT.—With tho
beautiful and popular Lady Diana
Manners as the leader of the new
ragtime dance cult, London society
has gone wild over the turkey trot
and the tango. The more conser
vative members of the artiStocrac.v
are aghast at the hold the whirlwind
American dances have taken on the
younger set.
The tearooms still confine them
selves to tea, not dancing, but the
ballrooms of the nobility are given
over almost exclusively to the con
tagious imported steps.
Since Lady Diana Manners has
taken them up, the younger social
lights have followed her to a debu
tante, and hostesses have shrugged
their shoulders and surrendered to
the inevitable.
With the new dances has come, too,
a relaxation of the formalities.
London chaperones are less given
to surveillance than they used to b* j
and boys and girls may dance to
gether through a whole evening with
out any . comment being made, some
thing which is new to England.
Men who are often shy about darn
ing with girls whose steps they do
not know have no fear now, be
cause there is sp much Informal
dancing with girls, so many oppor
tunities, of practicing together. Little
parties are often made up and a
teacher specially engaged.
BOYS FROM THIBET COME
TO ENGLAND FOR TRAINING
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON. May 17.—About a dozen
young students from the mysterious
land of Thibet—the first of their nation
to adventure into the white man'?
world, arrived in London recently.
The boys, who are in charge of Mr.
Gould, of the Indian Civil Service, are
aged from 10 to 13. They are the chil
dren of high officials. With them are
two or three grownups, one a Sikkim
police officer. Their costume is a
long-sleeved gown gathered in at the
waist and Chinese boots.
The boys will be placed in suitable
English schools and educated before
returning home to their own land.

Humans Defenseless Until They
Know How to Use Fists,
Says Composer.
By CHARLES HENRY MELTZER.
Special Cable to The American.
PARIS, M&yM7.—Maurice Maeter
linck, who loves boxing as much as
he does philosophy, published an
other eulogy of the noble art of self
defense some davs ago in a Paris
newspaper. Compared with insects
and some animals, he thinks man is
defenseless till he knows how to use
his fists.
“In rightly arranged natural hier
archy.” says Maeterlinck, “we should
be entitled only to a modest place
ion with the punching bag.
The author of “I’elleas” and the
“Marie Magdaleine,” for which his
charming wife is now rehearsing, still
spends hours each week in commun
ion with the punching bag.
Calm has come in the near east,
but in the farther east, between
Broussa and Beluchistan, events are
happening. They are being watched
with curious eyes in Paris, for al
though agreements between England
and Turkey, Turkey and Germany,
and Germany and England with re
gard to Asia Minor and the Persian
gulf, which are now pending or con
cluded, may not immediately affect
French interests, they may greatly
strengthen or diminish the prestige
of France abroad.
France Excluded.
France thus far seems to have
been virtually excluded from nego
tiations as to reforms in Asia Minor
and arrangements for building a
railroad or roads from Bagdad to
Bussoras and Koweit. With her Rus
sian ally. France is slowly waking up
as to the sad fact that her in
fluence in Syria and Turkey proper
is being snatched from her by Ger
many and England. Hence, tardy,
tears.
Though less sensational than the
recent frontier incidents at Nancy
and Luneville, proceedings at the
Franco-German conference at Berne
are much distressed. French patriots
and French deputies who have been
trying to promote friendly inter
course between France and Germany
are regarded with suspicion here as
they were opponents of the three
years' army service bill which M. Bar-
thou, the French premier and most
Frenchmen know must be made a
law if France is to remain a first class
power.
Despite Jaures and his socialist
fr 4 iends, the bill is almost certain
to be passed and then, but not till
then, France will breathe freely.
Continue rain this week forced
Parisians to go about in rubbers and
water proofs. Nevertheless. the
city has been thronged with visitors,
including ‘many Americans and even
more Engli^i.
Another Russian Season.
The chief theatrical event of the
week has been the opening of an
other Russian season at the new
theater Des Champs Elysees, which
for some time to come will be de
voted to muscovite ballet and Mus
covite opera.
The vogue of the marvelous Rus
sian dancers seems, however, nearly
over. More interest will be felt in
the three operas, the “Boris Godou-
now" and "Khovantchina” of Mous-
sorgsky, and the “Pskovitaine” of
Rimsky Korsakoff. The last named
work may be heard next season at
the Metropolitan.
Titta Ruffo, who shortly is to ap
pear in the Paris opera house as
Meflstophele protests against state
ments current in America that he has
a personal contract for next season
with Andreas Dippel. He asserts he
has been engaged for a series of per
formances by the Chicago opera com
pany.
Apart from the production of a
amusing three act comedy by Ed
mond Fleg entitled “Le Trouble Fete”
and a one act drama called “La Glorie
Ambulanoiere,” by Tristan Bernard,
at the Comedie Des Champs Elysees,
the only theatrical novelty of the
week has been a melodrama called
“Mon Ami Lassassil” at the Am-
bigu.

Wilhelmina Pits Her

Germany Wants Antwerp or Rotter
dam as an Outlet—Brings
Pressure on Holland.
Special Cable to The American.
BERLIN. May 17.—It has been
wondered why Queen Wilhelmina, of
the Netherlands, and her consort,
Prince Henry, have been remaining
for six weeks near Frankfort-on-the-
Maln in a sanatorium. The reason is
that, both have decided to remain
there in order to attend to important
political negotiations.
The Gorman Emperor has for many
years wished to turn either Rotter
dam or Antwerp into a German har
bor in order to give Germany an
other ‘outlet to the North Sf*a. But.
as the Belgians failed to catch the
hint regarding Antwerp, has turned
towards the Dutch people and, there
fore, instructed German diplomatists
in The Hague to let the Queen and
Consort understand they would be
very welcome in Germany.
Of course, the Queen is not likely
to allow, if she can help it, any Ger
man preponderance in the principal
Dutch port, but it is believed Ger

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, May 17.—
At the request of Mr. Harcourt, the
Colonial Secretary, the Common

warning to Australian women against
the common practice of marrying
Afghans and Pathans (natives of th-

Such marriages, it is pointed oiU.
are contracted by the husbands mere

wives there. In this way women are
induced to marry them and accom

All Idea of Morganatic Marriage
Scorned and None Ever
Proposed,
MISS ALEXANDER
Mother of New York Heiress Said
to Incline Toward a British
Alliance.
BY MARQUIS DE CASTELLANE.
Special Cable to The American.
PARIS, May 17.—The approaching
marriage of Miss Nancy Leishman,
daughter of Ambassador John G. A.
Leishman, makes a live question of
the old subject of morganatic mar
riages. Let me settle It once and
for all.
A morganatic marriage is a real
one both from the standpoint of
church and State. The difference
between it and the usual marriage
is that the contracting party of in
ferior rank renounces for self and
offspring all rights to honors, titles
and emoluments which might other
wise accrue from the union.
For instance, the late King Leo
pold contracted a morganatic mar
riage with Caroline Lacroix, other
wise the Baroness Vaughan. Their
two children could never claim heir
ship to the throne, nor to the king’s
property.
All this talk about a morganatic
marriage between the second daugh
ter of Ambassador and Mrs. Leish
man and Duke Karl of Croy arises
from a misconception of the facts.
The Duke of <’roy never proposed
a morganatic marriage to Miss Leish
man. While her fiance is a‘“sover
eign duke,” ranking with reigning
dynasties, he never even Intimated
that the daughter of a Pittsburg mil
lionaire was not his equal. And, if
he had she would not have accepted
him. There is no case on record
where an American girl has contract
ed a morganatic marriage.
Proposition Rarely Made.
It is so well known in Europe that
American girls would not enter into
unions implying inferiority that
rarely has such a proposition been
made. And the few exceptional cases
met with prompt refusals. For in
stance, when Miss Maud Fay, of Cal
ifornia, was approached by the fam
ily of a Bavarian prince concerning
a morganatic marriage she replied:
“No, it will be either a marriage
of perfect equality or none at all.”
When Miss Anita Stewart of Phil
adelphia. was married to a Braganza
Bourbon, the question was not even
raised.
Since the deplorable fatality which
deprived Isadora Duncan of Cali
fornia, of her two beautiful children
through the running away of her
motor car, a widespread demand has
arisen for some device which would
enable persons occupying the interior
of a car to stop the engine, in case
of danger, no matter whether the
chauffeur remained in his seat or not.
Automobile Invention.
On the day following the accident
referred to, a description of an in
vention of tills kind appe;<red in a
Paris newspaper, hut there are cer
tain inconvenient circumstances at
tached tq the use of t.hif* device,
which do not render it quite suit
able.
M. Auco, one of the City Council
lors. suggests that constructors
should devote their attention to the
invention of some device operating
on the clutch in such a manner that
an accidental starting of the engine
would be impossible.

LONDON, May 17.—Even gener
ous Americans are falling under the
spell of the English fashion of “make
all you can" and now the Marchio
ness of Dufferln is offering for rent
North House, her fine place at Put
ney.
Lady Dufferln is willing to accept
a fancy price for the use of this beau
tiful place for the season, and in addi
tion to the splendid art treasures, this
suburban mansion is rich in social
traditions. Lady Dufferln would only
consider a weekly rental of one hun
dred guineas, which would make
North House only a rich man’s prize.
Miss Alexander is watched close
ly by matchmakers. She is regard
ed with much friendliness and is vot
ed by rigid critics to be of good style,
which counts even more than good
looks, a quality which appeals to
dowagers perhaps more than to spoil
ed young sprigs of nobility.
After a long and tedious battle
against unfavorable odds, Countess
Pappenheim and her daughter, Count
ess Pauline, have “arrived” in London
society and this season their names
illuminate many of the smartest lists.
By patience and perseverance this
Philadelphian has succeeded, with
out the friendship of the Drexels and
other Pennsylvania families, and
few Americans now have more faith
ful friends here than the Pappen-
heims.
A rumor connects the Countess
Pauline with a middle aged soldier of
excellent family who can give the
young woman an established position,
but the mother hop^p for even a more
brilliant match.
